Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1576: Chapter 93: Greed! I Want It All_3

It was none other than the projection of the Immortal Supreme.

He gazed sternly at True Monarch Guiyi and True Monarch Yuanyuan, his voice grave: “Is the foreign domain a place you can meddle in at will? You are both pillars of the human race—if you barged into the foreign domain and fell, it would be a loss for all humanity. With the war against the outside demons growing increasingly fierce, if you truly have a death wish, at least go to the battlefield outside the domain and take down a demon of equal rank with you.”

“Greetings, Immortal Supreme.”

The two True Monarchs instinctively shrank their necks and immediately fell silent.

Although they were each masters of sacred lands under the Immortal Palace, they lacked the courage and confidence of Jade Spirit True Monarch to dare to argue with the Immortal Supreme.

“Greetings, Immortal Supreme.”

Enlightened Fire Wu and Fire Spirit Phoenix hurriedly led Wang Licui, Wang Ying Xuan, and Lan Wanyi in paying their respects.

“No need for formalities.”

The Immortal Supreme projection waved his hand dismissively, but his gaze softened significantly when it landed on Wang Licui and Wang Ying Xuan: “I am already aware of your circumstances, young ones. Humanity’s resistance on the battlefield outside the domain grows ever dire. To witness the rise of the younger generation brings me great relief.”

“Immortal Supreme, do you have food?” Wang Licui asked earnestly, daring to pick the moment to plead.

“Uh…”

Caught off guard by such an unexpected request, the Immortal Supreme hesitated briefly and then, with a casual wave of his hand, conjured two large chunks of Level Eleven dragon leg meat to float before them: “These were obtained long ago during my expedition to the foreign domain. You two can keep these and enjoy them slowly.”

His gesture was undeniably generous—each piece of dragon leg meat weighed over ten thousand pounds.

“Thank you, Immortal Supreme.”

Wang Licui and Wang Ying Xuan grinned until their eyes formed crescents.

This was a highly nourishing ingredient, capable of replenishing vitality and greatly aiding cultivation.

The Immortal Supreme quickly shifted topics: “Licui, are you considering becoming a disciple under True Monarch Yuanyuan or True Monarch Guiyi?”

“But I already have a master,” Wang Licui replied innocently, swiftly stowing away the dragon leg meat. “My master is Master Yunyang of Lingyun Holy Ground.”

“That is of no issue,” the Immortal Supreme said kindly. “Lingyun Holy Ground is considered a branch of the Immortal Palace. With Yunyang’s current strength and level, he can no longer teach you adequately. Taking on an additional master of formidable stature is necessary and does not violate any rules. You only need to ensure that you do not betray Yunyang’s expectations in the future.”

Wang Licui’s and Wang Ying Xuan’s backgrounds had already been thoroughly investigated by the Immortal Palace. Their families were clean and their lineage pure, with ancestry traceable back dozens of generations—effectively ruling out the possibility of being spies from the Demonic Dynasty.

“I feel that both True Monarchs are great people. Can I take them both as my masters?” Wang Licui calculated slyly in her heart.

Having masters meant access to food; with two masters at the Void Realm level, wouldn’t that mean a double supply of food?

“…”

The Immortal Supreme was momentarily speechless.

This mischievous girl truly dared to dream big! Why not be even bolder and directly ask to become my disciple?

Well, even if she did, in the current circumstances, the Immortal Supreme wouldn’t easily accept disciples. After all, though Licui and Ying Xuan had excellent talent, they still fell short of the qualities needed to fully embody the True Immortal potential.

This gap was like an insurmountable chasm, and even with immense resources, crossing it was uncertain.

Moreover, the Immortal Supreme already had a designated successor in mind. That individual’s aptitude was extraordinary, comparable to this generation’s Little Demon Sovereign of the Demonic Dynasty.

With such an exceptional and unparalleled choice, while Licui and Ying Xuan’s talents were decent, they did not rank as absolute priorities.

Given their current bloodlines, without breakthroughs, even if they inherited the Immortal Scripture, it would be extremely difficult to reach the True Immortal Realm without vast amounts of support. If accidents occurred midway—damaging lifespan or undermining foundational stability—they might ultimately fail to break through to the True Immortal Realm.

“Let’s do it this way: for now, reside at Minghuang Pavilion,” the Immortal Supreme decided. “True Monarch Yuanyuan and True Monarch Guiyi will take turns guiding you. After you are better acquainted, you may then choose which lineage to follow.”

“We have no objections.” True Monarch Yuanyuan and True Monarch Guiyi glanced at each other and both saw the burning intent in the other’s eyes.

Licui’s Bloodline Awakening Level was not only high but also incredibly rare as a devouring-type talent, making her a perfect candidate for their cultivation texts.

After settling matters regarding Wang Licui, the Immortal Supreme redirected his attention to Wang Ying Xuan: “Ying Xuan, young one, I have reviewed your records. You are similarly a child brimming with potential. By rights, with your talent, finding a sacred ground to join wouldn’t be challenging. However, there happens to be a unique cultivation text within our Immortal Palace that has yet to be inherited. Based on your nature and disposition, I believe you may be well-suited to it. Would you be willing to give it a try?”

Wang Ying Xuan’s eyes lit up, and she immediately leapt to her feet: “I, Wang Ying Xuan, fear no challenge. Immortal Supreme, please lead the way.”

“Very well, very well.”

The Immortal Supreme’s projection raised his hand, sweeping Wang Ying Xuan away into the air and flying off into the distance, leaving behind only one statement.

“True Monarch Yuanyuan, True Monarch Guiyi, take good care of Licui; she is a pillar of humanity’s future.”

“Understood, Immortal Supreme.”

True Monarch Yuanyuan and True Monarch Guiyi responded in unison, their gazes burning even more intensely as they looked at Wang Licui.

Meanwhile, Wang Licui was quietly scheming, pondering ways to claim both masters as her own.

…

While Wang Licui and Ying Xuan successfully blended into the Immortal Palace and began to show their promise, high above Hurricane Ocean…

The relentless winds that had endured for millions of years howled as they swept across the skies, their clashes of energy creating countless beams of radiance, resembling the shimmering of stars.
