Chapter 1034 - 1034: I'd Be Letting You Down If I Didn't Mess With You
Chapter 1034 - 1034: I'd Be Letting You Down If I Didn't Mess With You
"I really don't have a Celestial Heart, but I can still leave this place. Do you believe that?"He deliberately swept his gaze up and down Qiu Yuxuan with blatant provocation and mockery.
Even if you don't have the Immortal Mother's memories right now, your mission in the future will still be to kill me.
So I've got to properly fix you up a bit, otherwise I'd be letting down your kind intentions.
She scoffed, "I believe your damn ghost, keep bragging!"
"Someone without a Celestial Heart, their achievements in this life will stop right where they are!"
Granny Qiu held Brother Cheng in the utmost respect; Qiu Yuxuan was a different story.
She thought very little of Jiang Cheng.
Isn't he just some bumpkin who acted like a king on a low-end plane back before the Primordial Immortal Realm even fully formed, when the peak power was only Emperor Realm First Layer?
Times are different now, okay?
She was still secretly plotting in her heart.
This man might be stronger than her for now, but he has no Celestial Heart, so he won't have any progress in the future.
Whereas her own future was bright and boundless.
Once she advanced to Emperor Realm Seventh and Eighth Layers, even Ninth Layer, she would definitely get this breath of anger back.
For Granny Qiu's sake, at worst she wouldn't kill him, but she would absolutely beat him until he sobbed on his knees and begged for mercy!
"Granny, in the future I'll personally defeat him and let you see just how ridiculous he actually is."
Granny Qiu flew into a rage at that. "What nonsense are you spouting in front of the Great Sage?"
Jiang Cheng raised his hand to stop her again, and even gave Qiu Yuxuan a thumbs-up in passing.
"Your ambition is admirable, your spirit is high!"
Then he suddenly changed the subject. "If I can leave, then what will you do?"
If the Feixian Sect disciples saw the playful look on his face, they'd know for sure he was about to pit someone again.
Unfortunately, Qiu Yuxuan didn't know.
"You can't possibly leave. In this life you'll be stuck here forever!"
And then I'll wait until my Divine Skill reaches Great Success, and come back to give you a savage lesson.
Brother Cheng didn't care about her mockery at all, instead he smilingly proposed a wager.
"If I can leave this time, from then on you'll be my little maid, and whenever we meet you have to greet me with 'Hello, Master.' Dare to bet?"
Just thinking about the Immortal Mother Reincarnation serving as his maid, calling him "Master" every day, what kind of bliss would that be?
When she got her memories back in the future, would she be so mad she died on the spot?
The man was almost drunk on his own imagination.
But Qiu Yuxuan on the opposite side was in a completely opposite mood.
Little maid?
Is this guy daydreaming out of his ass?
I can't wait to pound you into the ground, and you still want me to be your maid, and call you Master?
"Who the hell do you think you are…"
Brother Cheng cut her off. "I'm just asking whether you dare to bet. If you don't have the guts, then shut up, stand aside, and practice clapping properly so you can join the cheer squad sooner or later."
Qiu Yuxuan knew this was a Provocation Technique.
She calmed down.
"You really don't have a Celestial Heart?"
"Really."
"What if you play dirty, and suddenly a Celestial Heart pops up later, and then you pass the test…"
"If I rely on a Celestial Heart to get out, then I lose!"
He'd already said it to this extent; what was there left to hesitate about?
Qiu Yuxuan did some mental math. This Abandoned Land was set up by the Celestial Palace; there was no way anyone could find a loophole to get out.
This shameless bastard, even less so.
So her win was guaranteed.
"Fine, I'll take the bet. If you can't get out, then you'll be my servant from now on, and when we meet you'll also have to greet me with a 'Hello, Auntie.'"
Bang!
Granny Qiu slapped the table heavily.
"You're bold beyond belief!"
She really couldn't listen anymore.
This was simply outrageously disrespectful. The Great Sage stood shoulder to shoulder with the God of the Xuan Race—how could she even think of making him a servant?
Even just having that thought was enough to get you struck by lightning.
Brother Cheng stopped her yet again.
"It's fine, it's fine. I'll take this bet. I'm going to win anyway."
Qiu Yuxuan refused to back down an inch. She proudly tilted her chin. "Hmph, when you lose, don't you dare use your Great Sage identity to dodge it."
Brother Cheng chuckled. "I definitely won't. I only hope you won't be the one who can't afford to lose."
Qiu Yuxuan shot back, "You think I'm you?"
"All right then, the bet is set in stone!"
Watching this scene from the side, Granny Qiu was both amused and helpless.
The Great Sage really did still have the same old style.
On the surface he was cynical and unreliable, but in reality…
The next day, this Abandoned Land welcomed new visitors.
"We respectfully welcome the Immortal Official!"
"We respectfully welcome the Immortal Official!"
The crowd of Emperor Realm Fourth and Fifth Layer experts here, under Granny Qiu's lead, stood respectfully by the altar.
"The Immortal Official's arrival makes our humble place shine with glory…"
Above the altar, a figure appeared out of thin air.
This person's appearance looked only about thirty, but how many years he had actually lived, probably only he himself knew.
After all, when that Emperor Realm Ninth Layer aura of his spread out, everyone present felt a terrifying pressure like mountains and seas crushing down.
On his head sat a Cyan Immortal Official Hat, and he wore a Brocade Cyan Silk Robe; his overall style didn't quite match that of other cultivators.
The Celestial Palace had a complete bureaucratic system, each division with its own duties, and these Immortal Officials managed the vast Primordial Immortal Realm.
This man was a Ninth-grade Immortal Official; rank-wise, he was at the very bottom, just above the rankless Celestial Palace odd-jobbers.
But those were also internal personnel of the Celestial Palace, bona fide subordinates of the Celestial Emperor.
Never mind him being Emperor Realm Ninth Layer—even if he were Emperor Realm First Layer, other Immortals would still have to greet him respectfully and wouldn't dare offend him in the slightest.
After all, he had the entire Celestial Palace standing behind him; not someone you could mess with.
"Who's the genius whose test result was Tier Six Immortal Grade?"
The results of the test here could be sensed from above; they just didn't know the person's name or identity.
A Tier Six Daoist Heart quality was extremely high—two grades higher than his own, even though he was Emperor Realm Ninth Layer.
And Immortal Grade represented the degree of devotion to the Heavenly Dao.
Because of that, those above attached great importance.
This kind of genius had extremely high cultivation value.
Usually, for a place like this Abandoned Land, they could just casually send over a rankless Immortal Official.
But this time, in order to show their regard, they specially sent him, a formal Immortal Official.
"Yuxuan, come quickly and pay respects to the Immortal Official, my lord!"
Granny Qiu hurriedly waved, and Qiu Yuxuan stepped forward to salute.
When this Immortal Official saw this woman, he couldn't help being stunned by her beauty.
This wasn't a level of looks you could achieve by using Immortal Techniques to adjust your appearance; this was the masterpiece of the Heavenly Dao itself.
To the point that his gaze stayed dazed on her for over ten seconds before he reacted.
"Not bad, not bad, truly a person whose talent is like a phoenix!"
"I am Immortal Official Bai Kui. From now on we can, ah, be a bit closer with each other…"
If it were just these words, it might have been fine.
But almost everyone present could clearly see that burning gaze of his, which hadn't left Qiu Yuxuan's face from start to finish.
This made Granny Qiu secretly worry in her heart.
This person seemed not to be an upright sort. He'd already reached Emperor Realm Ninth Layer and still hadn't cut off his lust.
If Qiu Yuxuan really followed him out, she might very well encounter some shameless things.
What should she do?
Immortal Official Bai Kui seemed to sense the frowns on everyone's faces, so he released another wave of pressure, cowing the crowd.
Then he lifted a Jade Brush and swiftly wrote a line of words in the Void.
"Qiu Yuxuan, Emperor Realm Fifth Layer, can enter King Jia's Dojo!"
