Chapter 1046 - 1046: Entering the Daoist Field
Seeing him still so self-assured, Qiu Yuxuan was furious enough to tear him apart on the spot.But then, she realized something unbelievable.
"You actually managed to bribe the Great Chief here?"
"Uh-huh." Brother Cheng boldly admitted.
"How could you possibly pull off something like this?"
Honestly, isn't this more unbelievable than passing the normal entrance exam for the Upper Court?
The Great Chief is a Supreme, after all!
And also an official Seventh-grade Immortal of the Celestial Palace.
How could such a person be bribed so easily?
Her tone of disbelief made Brother Cheng inwardly delighted.
To suppress the arrogance of 'Immortal Mother Reincarnation,' he deliberately said, "What is a mere Great Chief? As long as I want it, even the Celestial Emperor will clear the way for me."
The Ten Celestial Emperors maintaining the Heavenly Dao order were personally selected by the Immortal Mother back then.
In front of your reincarnation, I'm messing up this order completely.
Are you pissed?
Qiu Yuxuan almost choked to death from his words.
After holding back for a long time, she could only squeeze out a powerless accusation.
"You, you're really shameless!"
She wanted to expose this scandal right then and there.
But she soon gave up on the idea.
She wasn't stupid.
Exposing this despicable guy would also offend the Great Chief!
How would she continue to survive in King Jia's Dojo?
Having just reached Emperor Realm Fifth Layer, she might die without even knowing it.
She could only swallow her anger, plotting that she would get back at him someday.
And so, under the personal guidance of Grand Chief Official Ji Cang, the two went to the Upper Court.
After settling the two, Ji Cang planned to 'escape' from the scene.
He didn't want to stay with Jiang Cheng the nutcase for too long, for fear of being implicated.
The old man contemplated if he should now seal himself up in seclusion, meeting no one.
But he had just turned around when Brother Cheng caught up to him.
"Ah, wait a minute, Great Chief. I have something I need to ask you."
In front of Qiu Yuxuan, Ji Cang had to maintain appearances.
He could only pretend to be serious and dignified, stroking his long beard.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, what do you wish to inquire about?"
He still didn't know his collaboration in the fraud had already been revealed by Brother Cheng, thus in Qiu Yuxuan's mind, this Great Chief's image was already shattered.
"It's like this, I want to ask, when will I become an Immortal Official?"
Seeing the demeanor of these Immortal Officials, Jiang Cheng became more and more interested, deciding he wanted one for himself.
Pfft!
Qiu Yuxuan, who was brooding beside them, was almost amused to the point of bursting out laughing.
Do you think Immortal Officials are just handed out upon entry?
And you speak so matter-of-factly.
Ji Cang was defeated by him too.
"This, I'm afraid it's difficult."
"Isn't it said that once you enter the Upper Court, you're already considered half an Immortal Official?"
"It's true that's the saying, but it mainly depends on your performance, doesn't it?"
"You're the boss here, isn't my performance just up to you…"
"What are you talking about?"
Ji Cang hurriedly interrupted him.
There are outsiders here; this dirty relationship-based fraud, can you not openly mention it?
He switched to a transmission instead: "To become an Immortal Official, you need to earn the Celestial Palace's recognition and pass their assessments. I can't interfere with that and basically can't help you."
After saying this, he handed Brother Cheng a Jade Talisman.
"Inside here are detailed evaluation criteria; you can take your time to look through them."
"Why is there an assessment?"
Receiving the Jade Talisman, Brother Cheng felt displeased and didn't even bother to take a look.
With his main character status, who could assess him?
He felt like his value would drop after every assessment.
"The standards of the Celestial Palace are that strict; otherwise, why are so many Celestial Venerables still not able to claim an Immortal Official title?"
At this point, Ji Cang couldn't help but straighten his chest, as if being able to become a Seventh-grade Immortal Official was something remarkable.
"Alright, alright, you're now getting smug, not useful when it matters."
Ji Cang thought to himself, if you weren't the future Ice God, I'd kick you out right now.
Someone without a Celestial Heart, talking so brazenly.
Then he saw Jiang Cheng on the opposite side rubbing his fingers.
"What else now?"
"Where are my Daoist Artifacts and Pill resources and the like? Isn't the Upper Court supposed to have everything?"
This was the real reason Brother Cheng insisted on joining the Upper Court.
If there's a benefit, it mustn't be missed!
"You!"
Ji Cang thought about it, after all these things aren't funded by him but by the Celestial Palace; it's nothing to be upset about.
"You have to wait for your Upper Court identity to be registered, and then wait for the distributions from above."
"How long will that take?" Brother Cheng was somewhat dissatisfied.
"How would I know?"
Ji Cang no longer wanted to converse with this guy.
"Anyway, just settle down here, as a favor to me, don't cause any more trouble."
After finishing, he didn't linger any longer, and left the place as if fleeing.
Originally, Brother Cheng wanted to ask about Ice Extreme Saint Venerable and Gong Qing, but seeing Ji Cang's situation, the others probably weren't much better off either.
Just as he planned to enter his luxurious Cave Mansion, a cloud suddenly flew by from outside.
Upon the cloud stood four people.
Among these four, one appeared older than Ji Cang, with cultivation at Emperor Realm Ninth Layer.
There were also two young men and women; the woman's cultivation had reached Celestial Venerable, while the man was only at Emperor Realm Seventh Layer.
As for the man with the Jade Crown in the center, he was at Emperor Realm Eighth Layer like Brother Cheng.
The four descended from the cloud, and the man with the Jade Crown spoke first: "Are you the two who were just selected into the Upper Court today?"
"That's correct."
Jiang Cheng nodded, eagerly asking back: "Are you here to celebrate me?"
The man with the Jade Crown was slightly taken aback, and the three behind him exchanged perplexed looks.
So much so that they forgot how to continue their planned lines.
It was still the Emperor Realm Ninth Layer elder at the back who stepped forward first.
"We are also Upper Court Immortals!"
He pointed his sleeve towards the young man with the Jade Crown: "This is Wenren Sihai, Wenren Daoist Venerable's direct grandson; shouldn't you pay your respects?"
Seeing the other party wasn't here to congratulate, Jiang Cheng lost interest in them.
"Who is Wenren Daoist Venerable?"
The other two young men and women coldly rebuked: "You don't even know Wenren Daoist Venerable?"
"He is a major figure who holds significant power in the Celestial Palace, keep your eyes peeled!"
Brother Cheng suddenly realized, no wonder Celestial Venerable and Supreme followed this Emperor Realm Eighth Layer around.
Turns out he's a true second-generation heir.
He looked at the arrogant young man with an amused expression, curiously asking: "Did you also use connections to sneak in? Are you here for gilding? Nice to meet you!"
At these words, even Qiu Yuxuan didn't know from which angle to ridicule.
The three people behind were even more visibly shocked.
"How dare you!"
"Audacious!"
"Hurled slanders at Young Master Wenren, what do you deserve for this?"
Wenren Sihai's expression turned dark as well.
He looked deeply at Jiang Cheng and said flatly, "You still have time to leave King Jia's Dojo."
