Chapter 279: Li Ran’s Concept of Time!
Immortal Ascension Assembly.
This was the day when mortals were closest to immortal destiny.
All the sects’ Immortal Elders would come to Central City to select geniuses with cultivation talent.
However, apart from the large clans that had been carefully prepared, the commoners were also very anxious about this matter.
Although they might not have the qualifications to test their talent, it was good for them to be able to come into contact with Immortal Elders at close range.
And this time’s Immortal Ascension Assembly was even different.
Not only were all the top sects present, but all the top geniuses were also there.
They were all legendary figures.
Therefore, early in the morning in Central City, there were thousands of empty alleys. The commoners all went to the Dao Seeking Stage in hopes of occupying a good position and enjoying the glory of the heavenly geniuses.
As for the clans that participated in the assessment, they didn’t dare to slack off at all. They had already left with their disciples.
Including the Li family.
However, Li Ran was not anxious at all.
After eating breakfast, Xiao Qingge and the two deacons slowly walked toward the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
…….
Dao Seeking Stage…
This place was located in the western suburbs of Central City. It was a huge platform similar to the altar.
Normally, it was closed. Only on the day of the assembly would it be opened.
At this moment, the Dao Seeking Stage was filled with people. Although the meeting had yet to begin, the atmosphere was already extremely high.
On the highest platform, eight seats were reserved for the heads of the eight sects.
Below were first-rate sects, then second-rate sects, and so on.
Royal family was located opposite them, on par with the top sects.
By now, almost all the first and second-rate sects were filled. Even the top-tier sects had a few people sitting in their seats.
Commoners raised their heads to look up and whispered amongst themselves.
“Who is that white-faced youth? He looks unfamiliar.”
“Shh!?lower your voice. Do you want your life to vanish?”
“That’s the devil star that kills incessantly!”
“Hiss! Even the devils had come!”
“Imperial government had always been neutral. Devil could naturally participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly.”
“Look at the one by the side. He seems to be the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Unity Sect, Qin Ruyan.”
“She is indeed a national beauty…”
…….
On the high platform…
Of the eight positions, three from the Righteous Path and only two from the Devil Dao had arrived.
Bai Jiangye sat at the edge of the stage, bored out of his mind as he looked at the crowd below.
“Truly boring…”
If it weren’t for the fact that the sect master had sent him here and given him a mission of bringing a few geniuses back. He wouldn’t have bothered with this sort of crap.
Qin Ruyan sat at the other end of the street. She looked at the end of the street as if she was waiting for something.
Bai Jiangye asked curiously, “What are you looking at?”
Qin Ruyan said indifferently, “It has nothing to do with you.”
“Don’t be so cold.” Bai Jiangye smiled and said, “We, the Devils, don’t have an advantage in numbers. We should unite.”
Ji Xingyun was naturally absent after the Yin Corpse Dao was completely wiped out.
Indeed, the aura of the Devil Dao was slightly weaker.
Qin Ruyan shook her head and said mockingly, “Chief Bai really knows how to joke. Since when did the Death Prison want to unite with others?”
Devilest were selfish, and Death Prison was the worst among them.
From the beast tide, one could tell that there was no bottom line between good and evil in their hearts. As long as it was beneficial to their cultivation, they could do anything.
“After learning that Sheng Zi Li is here, I suddenly realized the importance of unity,” Bai Jiangye said.
Qin Ruyan was speechless.
Bai Jiangye rubbed his chin and muttered in a low voice, “Ji Xingyun has already been crippled because of Yu Ye’s matter. I wonder if Sheng Zi Li will retaliate against me if he holds a grudge like this.
“How about killing Chief Yue to show my sincerity?”
He had thought that Li Ran and Yue Jianli had a deep relationship.
Who would’ve thought that the two of them would actually fight in the Intoxicated Wind Pavilion? Supposedly, Yue Jianli’s face had been slapped and swollen.
Two of them must be enemies.
Qin Ruyan was speechless for a while. She shook her head and said, “Believe me. If you really dare to do this, your corpse won’t even be able to leave intact.”
If Li Ran had been here, he would have been killed just by saying that.
“Why…” As soon as he finished speaking, the audience suddenly became restless, and waves of low cries rang out from the crowd.
A group of illusory fairy Daoists was flying over.
“Tianshu Institute is here!”
“It’s Fairy Lin! Fairy Mingyue!”
“To be able to see Fairy Lin is already worth it!”
“This ethereal posture, this extraordinary aura, it’s my goddess!”
“It’s a pity she has a veil, so I can’t see her immortal face!”
……
Not only the commoners but even the other Righteous sects were restless.
As the number one genius, Lin Langyue’s fame, status, and strength could be said to be the leader of the Righteous Path’s younger generation.
No matter where she went, she was the most dazzling star.
She wore a pure white Daoist robe and a veil. She slowly arrived at the position of the Righteous Path’s four sects.
Three of them, who had already sat down, began to make small talk.
“Fairy Lin?” someone asked.
“Fairy Lin, please take a seat.”
Lin Langyue nodded slightly and sat in the middle.
At this point, all four Righteous sects had arrived.
Other than her and Yue Jianli, there were also the Supreme Dao Palace’s Feng Wanjiang and Shaolin Temple’s Zen Master Shi Kong.
Only two people from the Devil Dao had come.
It seemed a little thin.
Sheng Zhixia sat on the throne opposite the sects.
“Your Highness, it’s almost time. The meeting can begin anytime,” the deacon behind her whispered.
“There’s no rush.” Sheng Zhixia shook her head. “He hasn’t arrived yet.”
“Yes.” The deacon nodded and left.
As time passed, the sect’s disciples became a little anxious, but Sheng Zhixia refused to speak.
Cold sweat rolled down the deacon’s forehead, but he did not dare to say anything.
Above the Dao Seeking Stage.
Two gazes passed through the clouds and stared at the movements below.
Chu Lingchuan asked in confusion, “Sheng Ye, what is your daughter waiting for? Isn’t the meeting going to start?”
Sheng Ye smiled wryly. “Other than that person, who else could it be?”
Chu Lingchuan coldly snorted, “Does Li Ran have a sense of time? If he dared to make this old lady wait, I really would…”
She recalled what had happened before and immediately gnashed her teeth. Her eyes were filled with shame and anger.
“That bastard!” At this moment, Sheng Ye raised his eyebrows slightly. “He’s here.”
.
Not far away, a tall and straight figure slowly walked over.
Sheng Zhixia’s eyes lit up as she suddenly stood up. Royal family behind her also stood up.
Qin Ruyan, Yue Jianli, Lin Langyue, Bai Jiangye… Chiefs of the Righteous Path and Devil Dao stood up and focused on the man.
Scene was completely silent. No one dared to sit.
