Immortal of the Nine Realms

The people seated with Fang Chen and Fairy Yu were surprised.

She doesn’t know them?

They weren’t fools; the Qinghu Empire ruler’s initial reaction clearly indicated that she recognized the two. Her sudden shift in attitude caused their minds to wander with speculations.

”Hmm?” The old man’s face darkened as he looked at Fang Chen. ”You claim to know my wife. It seems you’re lying to me. Since today is a happy occasion, I won’t make things difficult for you. You can leave.”

”What’s the background of these two cultivators? How dare they impersonate her acquaintances?”

”Are they trying to establish a relationship with Senior Wu by doing this?”

Many cultivators whispered to each other.

Fang Chen glanced at the Qinghu Empire ruler. Seeing how she didn’t even look at them, her eyes elsewhere, looking cold, Fang Chen smiled and pulled Fairy Yu away, preparing to leave.

”Hold on.” The old man raised his hand lightly. ”You can leave, but this young lady will stay and enjoy the feast.”

Fairy Yu frowned. ”Since you want to send my husband away, why should I stay?”

The old man smiled warmly. ”Young lady, I am a person who cherishes beauty and talent. Staying here has more prospects than following your husband. Do you want to consider it?”

The surrounding Golden Core Realm cultivators chuckled at his words, some even chimed in, ”Indeed, young lady, seeing how beautiful you are, it’s better to stay with Daoist Wu. In this world, who doesn’t know that Daoist Wu cherishes beauty and talent the most?”

“Daoist Wu, why not make it a double celebration today and take this young lady as well, adding to the joyous occasion?” A Golden Core Realm demonic cultivator with sharp features joked as he sneered.

This demonic cultivator’s voice was unpleasant and grating. He kept staring at Fairy Yu while making lustful gestures.

The Qinghu Empire ruler’s expression changed slightly, her brows furrowing. She transmitted a message to Fang Chen, ”Quickly take her away from here. This demon cultivator isn’t easy to deal with, and his background is not simple.”

Fang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. ”What background does he have?”

The Qinghu Empire ruler’s expression was serious. ”He has a Nascent Soul Realm Demon King backing him.”

A Nascent Soul Realm Demon King?

Fang Chen pondered. With his fourth-rank Sword Body and the Eight Desolation Supreme Sword Scripture, he might not be helpless facing an early-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

Upon hearing the suggestions from the surrounding cultivators, the old man surnamed Wu was overjoyed and laughed heartily. ”I cannot disappoint everyone with such hospitality!”

Then, he smiled warmly at Fairy Yu, his face filled with affection, ”Young lady, I don’t mind your past. Today, I can also ensure your former husband leaves safely, as long as you’re willing to be my partner.”

Fairy Yu chuckled angrily and pointed at the ruler of the Qinghu Empire. ”What about your wife?”

”I am a grand completion stage Golden Core Realm cultivator; having multiple wives and concubines is common,” said Old Wu proudly.

Fairy Yu looked at Fang Chen and transmitted her thoughts, ”Lord, shall we kill him?”

Fang Chen nodded.

At that moment, a voice echoed from the guest room, “The Rainbow King’s Crown Prince has arrived!”

As the voice fell, a handsome young man slowly entered the banquet hall. His hair displayed seven different colors, making him look very splendid. The cultivators present were all surprised and quickly stood up to greet him.

Old Wu’s face lit up with joy, and he walked toward the young man with a big smile. ”Your Highness, I didn’t expect you to personally attend my wedding banquet. I am truly honored!”

The handsome young man smiled and replied, ”You are my father’s most trusted confidant. Your wedding is a joyous occasion. How could I not come? My father instructed me to bring a congratulatory gift for you. Don’t be modest.”

With that, the handsome young man took out a jade box and opened it. Inside was a crimson gold ginseng, exuding rich spiritual energy. It was clearly not an ordinary item.

A mischievous smile appeared on the handsome young man’s face. ”This is a peak-grade, yellow-rank Stag Ginseng. Consuming this will enhance your virility, vitality, and robustness. In the future, you will be unbeatable in the bridal chambers.”

Stag Ginseng?

Many cultivators gasped in admiration. That was a rare peak, yellow-rank spiritual medicine that was often priceless and hard to come by.

Old Wu looked at the Stag Ginseng with joy and gratitude, his face wreathed in happiness. Finally, he said, ”I never expected the Rainbow King to be so thoughtful. This Stag Ginseng is the best gift. I am truly grateful!”

The Stag Ginseng... It’s just what I need to advance to the second stage of the Radiant Divine Eyes, Fang Chen thought.

He smiled with satisfaction. Today’s trip was indeed worthwhile.

With the Stag Ginseng and the Twilight Eye in hand, and a few more spiritual medicines, he could use them to unlock the second realm of the Radiant Divine Eyes.

”Your Highness, come here, let me introduce you. This is my first wife, and this is the second wife I am preparing to marry. It’s embarrassing to say, but this Stag Ginseng arrived just in time.”

Old Wu warmly held the arm of the handsome young man and brought him to the presence of the Qinghu Empire ruler. Then, he introduced him to Fairy Yu. The handsome young man smiled ambiguously, his gaze lingering on the Qinghu ruler for quite some time before nodding slightly. Then, he looked at Fairy Yu. However strangely, his smile froze.

Old Wu didn’t notice and continued to talk about how he coincidentally met Fairy Yu today and how he developed a bit of admiration for her, causing everyone to laugh out loud.

Finally, Old Wu frowned and shouted at Fang Chen, ”Why are you still here? Do you want to watch your ex-wife and me in the bridal chamber?”

This remark triggered laughter from many Golden Core Realm demon cultivators and Foundation Building Realm demon cultivators, while only a few human cultivators forced a smile, their eyes showing a hint of pity. Clearly, they were agreeing insincerely, and many of them looked at Fang Chen with a tinge of sympathy.

The two of them were unfortunate to end up in this realm and encounter this demon cultivator surnamed Wu, who had a terrifying obsession with women.

The handsome young man’s smile had disappeared by now. His eyes shifted to Fang Chen, his face turning pale.

”Old Wu, perhaps you should reconsider today’s wedding,” said the handsome young man, hinting.

Old Wu was taken aback and frowned. ”Your Highness, is there something wrong?”

”Just reconsider it. I have some matters to attend to today, so I’ll take my leave first,” said the handsome young man lightly.

He patted Old Wu’s shoulder and then turned to leave.

Old Wu quickly grabbed the handsome young man’s arm, looking puzzled, ”Your Highness, what’s the matter?”

It was clear that the handsome young man came to congratulate him but had a change of heart out of nowhere.

Old Wu felt uneasy, wondering if he unintentionally offended the young man or if there was some meaning behind the scenes from the Rainbow King.

Seeing that Old Wu had grabbed his arm, the handsome young man grew both shocked and furious. ”Let go of me!”

Old Wu was completely stunned.

The lively atmosphere in the banquet hall gradually quieted down.

Fairy Yu looked at the handsome young man and smiled ambiguously. ”Do you recognize us?”

The handsome young man looked conflicted for a moment. Then, he calmed down and looked at Fairy Yu with confusion. ”Young lady, we’ve never met before. How could I recognize you?”

”Your Highness, could it be that you’re interested in this young lady too? If so, I’m willing to make a sacrifice and give her to you,” offered Old Wu, his voice low.

The handsome young man suddenly exploded in anger. ”Shut up!”

He slapped Old Wu’s face hard. The force behind the slap was substantial. It almost revealed Old Wu’s true form, showing a centipede head on his face briefly before returning to normal.
