Immortal of the Nine Realms

”Senior Sun, if it weren’t for your guidance, we wouldn’t have known that there is a legacy of the Giant Spirit Immortal in this desolate land.”

In a stone pavilion located halfway up a mountain in the Giant Immortal Sect, a group of young people sat together.

One of them let out a sigh of admiration. ”The Giant Spirit Immortal Lord practiced refining blood and qi, using the yin to transform into yang. His body is filled with rich vitality. If we can find a Dao partner who is from his lineage, it will greatly improve our cultivation.”

Sun Yi smiled slightly and remarked, ”That’s why we should never underestimate these outlands. Sometimes, you could find some unexpected surprises.”

He added, ”The Giant Spirit Immortal’s cultivation methods, especially his path to the ultimate yang, are extraordinary. But if a man practices his methods without an exceptional yin entity to balance the energy, he will eventually explode from the pressure. However, if a woman cultivates it, this flaw can be perfectly resolved.”

Sun Yi paused for a moment before continuing, ”Once this dump belongs to my Sun family, the female cultivators from the Giant Immortal Sect will be at your disposal. Even Su Mo might end up in our bed. There’s no need to worry about anyone competing with us. Only the Great Sun Sect’s cultivation method is perfectly suited to this path.”

Upon hearing this, the others chuckled darkly.

At this moment, a group of female cultivators from the Giant Immortal Sect appeared in the sky. Seeing this, Sun Yi led his group out of the stone pavilion to greet them.

”Greetings, Profound Immortal Xiu Yue,” Sun Yi said with a smile.

The leading female cultivator looked down from above, a faint smile appearing on her face as she nodded.

”Everyone, you mentioned wanting to meet Shen Ji of the Divine Dao Sect. I have invited her here. She also has an ancestor who was a First Rate Sect Leader. She carries the bloodline of the sect’s founder. She can be considered an exceptional choice for a Dao partner.”

”Oh?” Sun Yi’s eyes lit up. ”Then I must thank you for introducing her to us, Profound Immortal Xiu Yue.”

Profound Immortal Xiu Yue smiled. ”Follow me.”

”I heard you’ve been feeling troubled recently. What happened?”

Standing before Jiang Tian’ai, Xun Xiyin furrowed her brow.

Jiang Tian’ai seemed shocked at Xun Xiyin’s sudden appearance. When she heard the name Profound Immortal Xiu Yue, her expression immediately changed into an anxious one. She quickly began to push Xun Xiyin toward the door.

”Sister Xiyin, you must leave the Giant Immortal Sect quickly. Things here are a little problematic right now.”

Given Jiang Tian’ai’s cultivation level was much lower than Xun Xiyin’s, it was naturally impossible for her to push Xun Xiyin.

Standing firmly in place, Xun Xiyin said coolly, ”What do you mean by problematic? Feel free to tell me. Has someone been messing with you? You were brought to the Giant Immortal Sect by Profound Immortal Xiu Yue. I can stand up for you.”

Jiang Tian’ai hesitated.

Just then, two female cultivators from the Giant Immortal Sect passed by. Upon hearing Xun Xiyin’s words, they entered the small courtyard.

One of them smiled slyly and said, ”Goddess Shen Ji, something good has happened to Junior Sister Tian’ai. There’s no need for you to interfere.”

The other female cultivator from the Giant Immortal Sect looked at Jiang Tian’ai with a hint of jealousy in her eyes. Smiling, she shared, ”Recently, several important figures have arrived at the sect. Among them, Young Master Sun Yi has taken an interest in Tian’ai and plans to marry her. Master has said that with Young Master Sun Yi’s background, Tian’ai wouldn’t have to worry about anything anymore by marrying him.”

Xun Xiyin frowned slightly. ”Tian’ai still has the inheritance of the Jiang Family, and she hasn’t received it yet. How can she marry someone at this time? Where is your master? Take me to see him.”

Just as the two female cultivators from the Giant Immortal Sect were about to speak, they immediately stopped and bowed toward a figure in the distance.

”Greetings, Master.”

Profound Immortal Xiu Yue was leading Sun Yi and the others over. She smiled at Xun Xiyin. ”Divine Maiden, let me introduce you to these gentlemen.”

Sun Yi and the others’ gazes shifted as they sensed the aura of an Upper Three Realms cultivator coming from Xun Xiyin. Their hearts began to stir.

The women Profound Immortal Xiu Yue introduced to them would naturally be unmarried, not too old, and in the Upper Three Realms. For them, such women were also ideal partners for dual cultivation.

”No need for Profound Immortal Xiu Yue to introduce us,” Sun Yi said with a smile, waving his hand.

He walked a few steps toward Xun Xiyin and cupped his hands in greeting. ”I am Sun Yi, a disciple of Qiufeng’s Sun Family and also a member of the Great Sun Sect. These are my senior brothers from the Great Sun Sect.”

Qiufeng?

Xun Xiyin suddenly recalled an ancient text she had seen in the Imperial Palace’s Scripture Pavilion. Looking a little grim, her gaze unintentionally shifted toward Profound Immortal Xiu Yue.

Profound Immortal Xiu Yue nodded. ”As the Divine Maiden, you must understand the significance of Qiufeng. The elders of these gentlemen’s sects are currently guests of Immortal Monarch Xiaoyao. I believe they will return to Qiufeng soon.”

”I have already met these gentlemen,” Jiang Tian’ai said softly.

Xun Xiyin nodded lightly, then pulled Jiang Tian’ai along and smiled at Profound Immortal Xiu Yue. ”It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Tian’ai. I plan to take her back to the palace for a few days. I must take my leave now.”

Xiu Yue seemed shocked.

The smiles on Sun Yi and the others’ faces froze as well.

This woman knew what Qiufeng implied, yet she still acted so cold?

During their time in the Giant Immortal Sect, no one had ever treated them in such a way. The female cultivators here frequently made gestures, both openly and covertly, trying to get the men from Qiufeng to take them there.

Xiu Yue waved her hand to stop Xun Xiyin and smiled, ”Divine Maiden, Tian’ai and Young Master Sun are quite fond of each other and are planning to marry. It would not be appropriate for her to leave now. Let them stay here in the Giant Immortal Sect so they can get to know each other. Once they are married, their dual cultivation will be more harmonious, both in body and spirit.”

”Marry?” Xun Xiyin looked at Xiu Yue coldly. ”When I asked you to bring her to the Giant Immortal Sect, it wasn’t to find her a suitor. With her status and talent, she is destined to become a Profound Immortal at the very least. Where’s the rush in getting married?”

Sun Yi couldn’t help but chuckle. ”A Profound Immortal? That’s your wishful thinking, isn’t it? She’s just a Tribulation Realm cultivator. How could she possibly be called an Immortal? If Tian’ai were to come with me to the Sun family, even the Ascension Realm is within reach.”

Xiu Yue smiled. ”Divine Maiden, now that Tian’ai is my disciple, as her master, it is my responsibility to find her a good match. You don’t need to worry about it. Perhaps you should spend more time getting closer to Young Master Sun and his companions.”

Xun Xiyin sensed the underlying tone, and her expression darkened. She replied coldly, ”Oh? Are you planning to find a good match for me as well? Have you asked my ancestor about this?”

”If it works out, my elders will naturally inform your ancestors. I believe he won’t object,” Xiu Yue responded with a smile.

Sun Yi laughed. ”However... I must say, this lady’s temperament isn’t exactly agreeable.”

He glanced at his fellow disciples. ”Does anyone here have an interest in this lady? Perhaps Profound Immortal Xiu Yue could play matchmaker for all of you?”

”I wouldn’t be interested,” one of his companions said with a grin. ”She looks like a real tigress. Hahaha!”

”My family would never allow such a woman through our doors either. A lady should be modest and graceful. She is aggressive and arrogant. It’s unacceptable, truly unacceptable.”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Considering Xun Xiyin’s temperament, the fact that she hadn’t exploded yet showed she was already giving ample respect to them being from Qiufeng.

Elder Xiu Yue said, ”Divine Maiden, as I mentioned before, Tian’ai is my disciple. As her master, it’s only proper that I handle her marriage arrangements. If you have any objections, keep them to yourself, and don’t provoke the honored guests I’ve invited,”

Just then, someone hurriedly approached with news. ”Elder Xiu Yue, someone requests an audience with Junior Sister Tian’ai.”

”Oh? Who is it?” Elder Xiu Yue asked calmly.

”They claim to be Junior Sister Tian’ai’s family....”

Everyone looked surprised.

Her family?

A sudden realization seemed to strike Xun Xiyin, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.

”Xiu Yue, since Tian’ai’s family has arrived, you can no longer solely decide her marriage. You’ll have to consult her family now.”
