326: Want to curry favor with someone powerful

"Senior Brother, you seem to be in good spirits lately."

Du Xian walked over from the side, his face full of an excited smile.

Because of the previous incident, both of them had turned a misfortune into a blessing. Under desperate circumstances, nearly dying, they had stimulated their own potential, and their Cultivation speed had increased several times over.

The two of them very quickly used various Materials to repair their bodies, and subsequently entered a state of Cultivation.

They were shocked to discover that whether it was their Meridians or their understanding of Spiritual Qi, everything had improved by a hundredfold.

This was entirely due to the potential forcibly squeezed out of them in the face of life and death.

Perhaps their bodies felt that if they didn't become stronger and Cultivate, they would face such crises repeatedly and would likely die, so they specifically granted them this ability to comprehend, purely for self-preservation.

This feeling likely wouldn't disappear in the short term, so the two intended to take advantage of this opportunity to Cultivate hard. They had heard that their Senior Sister and Junior Brother had returned, which is why they rushed out to welcome them.

However, after arriving here, they immediately felt their stomachs were empty and extremely hungry, so the two started eating.

"My recovery has been quite good lately, but I don't know if Senior Sister and Junior Brother have encountered any danger. The Immortal Realm is quite different from what we imagined; the people here aren't very kind, and Senior Sister's temperament will probably attract quite a few enemies."

Zhang Hai hadn't noticed the figure behind him at all, and it wasn't until Su Yao patted his shoulder that he discovered her.

"You actually dared to talk about me behind my back just now, right?"

Su Yao punched him a few times fiercely.

"But what you said isn't wrong. If I hadn't been lucky enough to meet a Senior Powerhouse, I'm afraid I wouldn't have made it back this time. Thanks to this Senior."

As Su Yao spoke, she pointed to the old man behind her. The other party merely nodded calmly at the two, and then swept his gaze across the entire scene.

It didn't matter if he didn't look, but one look startled him. Just moments ago, he was thinking that after arriving here, he could have everyone respectfully bow to him and call him Senior. As it turned out, after arriving, he discovered that Powerhouses were gathered here in droves; there were even over a dozen Immortal Emperors.

The number of Immortal Kings was even more outrageously high!

At this moment, he was stunned. He had previously been clamoring to take them as Disciples, bragging about how strong his strength was, and boasting about himself all along the way.

Now that he had arrived at their Sect, he discovered that Powerhouses were everywhere. If they just casually found an Immortal Emperor to apprentice under, it would be far more useful than apprenticing under him.

At this moment, his expression gradually became somewhat unsightly; he hadn't expected that the clown was actually himself.

At the same time, he barely managed to squeeze a smile onto his face.

Regardless, since there were so many Powerhouses here, he still needed to greet them. If he happened to meet an Immortal Emperor Expert and established a good relationship with them, he would have a backer in the future.

He did indeed like that kind of quiet and elegant life, but he had made quite a few enemies over the years. If those people grew stronger one day and came looking for him, and he didn't have a backer, he would likely be done for.

He chuckled, then found an Immortal Emperor and approached to get close to him. After chatting for a few sentences, the other party learned that it was exactly him who had brought the Sect Master's Personal Disciple back.

"Thank you, Sir, for helping us bring our Disciple back. We have specially prepared a banquet to entertain you, and we have also prepared a gift for you."

The Immortal Emperor Expert very respectfully took out a Storage Ring. This was the Heavenly Profound Sect's highest benefit, and it was filled with a large amount of resources, entirely intended to thank him for his previous actions.

"If you can tell us which factions were pursuing our Disciples, we have additional rewards."

The old man wanted to wave his hand and refuse, because in his eyes, the favor of an Immortal Emperor Expert was far more important than these resources.

However, the moment he touched the ring, he instantly lost his composure. A look of shock and uncertainty suddenly appeared on his face, and the hand holding the ring trembled slightly.

This ring actually contained a large amount of resources, and the Rank of these resources was extremely high-grade. If he took these resources, his future achievement of the Immortal Emperor position would be almost a certainty. After all, the Dao he was Cultivating had no predecessors; in other words, as long as he continued to Cultivate, he would inevitably be able to achieve the Immortal Emperor status.

With these resources, it would take him at most a month to Breakthrough his current Realm and officially enter the Immortal Emperor Realm!

The old man's complexion flushed, his breathing gradually became rapid, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

He never imagined that this Sect's foundation would be so strong. He had only saved a few of their Disciples, and they had directly brought out so many rewards to compensate him.

For a moment, an extremely excited smile appeared on his face. He swallowed the words of refusal he had originally intended to say and accepted it.

"Thank you, thank you. Actually, this is what I should have done. After all, having encountered it, I couldn't just watch two juniors get beaten to death by that group of people. As for which faction they belong to, I might not be too sure, but if you want to know, I can investigate immediately!"

The old man spoke very respectfully, while simultaneously stating his own value. He hoped that others would keep him in the Sect, considering that he still had some value.

From the moment he entered the Sect, he was actually quite shocked inside, and even wanted to defeat the strongest person here and turn this place into his own territory, because he was shocked to discover that the immortal spirit qi here was actually much richer.

Cultivating here would definitely yield twice the result with half the effort, but now he no longer had such thoughts. He now only wanted to join this group and become a member of the Heavenly Profound Sect.

If he could stay here permanently, he would be able to use the surrounding environment to Cultivate at any time, and also have a large amount of resources to take. Plus, having helped these people, it shouldn't be a difficult matter for them to let him join the Sect.

The Immortal Emperor Expert pondered slightly; he understood the other party's meaning perfectly well. This was someone wanting to seek a powerful backer, but he couldn't make the decision; this Sect was basically Li Haotian's sole domain.

Li Haotian soon learned the news that this guy wanted to join the Sect. A Peak Immortal King Powerhouse joining them seemed to be a good thing.

After Li Haotian pondered for a while, he nodded his head; it was no problem to let the other party join the Sect, but he had to be loyal to the Sect.

Usually, he would also have to complete some tasks just like the other Elders, and only after reaching sufficient Sect contribution could he enter the Sect.

It wasn't that Li Haotian didn't trust the other party; it was that he wanted to test him more. If the other party really was sent by some faction, in the process of executing tasks, he would actually be able to see some clues to some extent.
