Chapter 2909: Chapter 47: The Taoist Master’s Arrival in the Divine Martial World (Part 3)

”This...” The Jade River Saint Emperor hesitated slightly.

Taoist Master Taichu, however, seemed quite interested: ”The last time this Taoist Master stayed briefly at Guiyuan Other Courtyard for forty years, I never saw Master Shouzhe invite me to the Shenwu Wang family as a guest. I did hear Baoguang bragging about some things regarding the Shenwu Wang family and have long wanted to see it for myself.”

”Alright, since we will soon all be in-laws, we cannot avoid visiting each other,” the Jade River Saint Emperor agreed when he saw the Taoist Master had expressed his stance, ”then let’s go visit the Shenwu Wang family.”

He had already heard a bit about the name of the Shenwu Wang family in the Jade River Sacred Dynasty, but as they had risen too quickly, these Shenwu prominent families, including the Shenwu Wang family, were always referred to as ”upstart pioneers” by the noble families of Jade River.

He was also curious to see what exactly gave the Shenwu Wang family their confidence?

Seeing the two agree, Wang Shouzhe immediately made quick arrangements and then led everyone to the Divine Martial World.

The Divine Martial World and the Sacred Domain are connected through the Void Transfer Array Plate; the passage is narrow, and the Taoist Master’s Dao Boat of Tai Chu is too large to traverse the spatial nodes, so it remained in the Sacred Domain. The group took the space shuttle boat specifically for the Divine Martial World and passed through.

Upon entering the Divine Martial World, it was the territory of the Immortal Palace.

After several hundred years of development, what was originally the Cold Moon Plateau belonging to the Devour Heaven Sacred Land had long since become a huge industrial port, bustling and lively.

As Wang Shouzhe had sent a message earlier, the Immortal Monarch Ling Xuan of the Immortal Palace and Secretary-General Wang Fugui of the Shenwu Sacred Alliance were already waiting there to welcome the guests from the Sacred Domain.

”Greetings to the Taoist Master, greetings, Your Majesty the Saint Emperor, welcome to the Divine Martial World, everyone.”

As Wang Shouzhe and the others disembarked from the shuttle boat, Wang Fugui immediately stepped forward to greet them, respectfully and courteously saluting the Taoist Master Taichu and the Jade River Saint Emperor beside Wang Shouzhe, and then saluted Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan.

To facilitate his work, he had deliberately kept a couple of small mustaches, and his entire demeanor was impressively mature, exuding a natural authority that only comes with long-term high positions. Even standing in front of an established Immortal Monarch like Ling Xuan, he was not overshadowed, and he held the scene well.

”Father.”

Wang Baosheng, who had not seen his father for a long time, was somewhat guilty as he came forward to pay respects.

Taoist Master Taichu, the Jade River Saint Emperor, the Eldest Princess of Jade River, Yin Lingzhu, and others immediately realized that this was actually Wang Baosheng’s biological father!

In an instant, everyone’s attitude naturally changed.

Especially Yun Yuhe and Yin Lingzhu, who couldn’t help but feel a little more nervous, producing an inexplicable unease.

”Fugui has already prepared a dedicated flying boat; in less than ten hours, you can reach the Wang family.” Wang Fugui was exceedingly courteous.

After all, this time it was about his son’s marriage, and as the father, he naturally had to do his utmost to host these great figures well.

”Wait!”

But Taoist Master Taichu raised his hand to interrupt him.

After sensing the surroundings and the already closed Space Tunnel, he furrowed his brows slightly: ”After passing through this spatial vortex, I can no longer sense the mark I left in the Primordial Taoist Palace at all. Could it be... is this place already far from the Primordial Taoist Palace, way outside the domain of Dongxia Divine Dynasty?”

Wang Fugui glanced at Old Ancestor and then understood with a smile: ”In response to the Taoist Master’s question, the location of our Divine Martial World is actually on the other side of the Realm of Ruin, just opposite the Dongxia Divine Dynasty.”

Taoist Master Taichu’s expression slightly tensed, pointing at the Space Tunnel behind him: ”Then if this Space Tunnel were destroyed, wouldn’t this Taoist Master be unable to return?”

”You can still return.” Wang Fugui shook his head and explained earnestly, ”You just need to traverse through the middle of the Realm of Ruin to return to Dongxia Divine Dynasty.”

”Haha...” Taoist Master Taichu’s eyelid twitched with an urge to hit someone, and his tone became subtly sarcastic, ”The deep region of the Realm of Ruin harbors great terrors, which rarely target Sacred Supreme-level forces but are extremely unfriendly to Taoist Master-level forces.”

”Moreover, the deep region of the Realm of Ruin is now chaotic, with extremely harsh environments, making it unlikely for anyone to have the ability to pass through. Isn’t this no different than being unable to return?”

He didn’t inquire about detours either, firstly because the Realm of Ruin is extremely vast, making detours unrealistic, and the time consumed on the road alone would make one give up on this idea. Secondly, no one has traveled this path, and without a precise and complete Void Navigation Map for guidance, coupled with crossing a vast uninhabited area of the Dark Void Sea in between, it’s practically a death wish.

Taoist Master Taichu suddenly fell silent.

He somewhat understood why Wang Shouzhe dared to invite him over.

If he, the Taoist Master, dared to mess around, all the Wang family needed to do was blow up this Space Tunnel, and he would be completely trapped in this world.

And with the Dongxia God Continent lacking the Taoist Master of the Taichu lineage, and without a Taoist Master-level force to hold the fort, it would inevitably decline, and it might be overtaken and annexed by other continents one after another in the future.

A vigilant expression also flashed in the Jade River Saint Emperor’s eyes.

If he, the Saint Emperor, and the Eldest Princess of Jade River were trapped in this world, the entire Yun family of Jade River would be doomed!

Seeing their expressions, Emperor Tianrui, who had come along for the spectacle and to gain knowledge, laughed heartily to lighten the mood: ”Haha, why does it feel like a Hongmen Banquet? Master Shouzhe, you wouldn’t be planning to detain us all if the marriage proposal doesn’t succeed, would you?”

Wang Shouzhe laughed: ”Your Majesty Tianrui, you’re joking. The Divine Martial World is the base of the Wang family; if we really trapped you here, what future would we have? Come, come, Fugui has already arranged the itinerary, let’s head back to the Wang family.”

”No need for an official itinerary.” Taoist Master Taichu shifted the topic, ”Now that the Divine Martial World is registered with the Sacred Dynasty, and the Shenwu Immortal Palace is already a branch of the Primordial Taoist Palace. Since I’m here, I want to see firsthand what the real world of the Divine Martial World is like.”

The Immortal Monarch Ling Xuan of Immortal Palace hurriedly complimented, ”If the Taoist Master is inclined, I’ll arrange the itinerary immediately.”

”The itinerary you arrange would naturally be what you want this seat to see.” Taoist Master Taichu, donning a businesslike tone, said, ”I’ve often heard that the Divine Martial World is quite wealthy; perhaps it’s better to travel incognito and truly experience the charm of the Divine Martial World.”

”That idea isn’t bad.” The Jade River Saint Emperor agreed, ”It’s been a long time since I went on a private visit.”

In his view, regardless of the future, the Jade River Sacred Dynasty and the Divine Martial World will be inextricably linked; it’s better to use this opportunity to get a good look at the real situation of the Divine Martial World, to make better decisions regarding marriage and cooperation.

Are they intending to go on an incognito inspection?

Wang Shouzhe and Wang Fugui exchanged glances, both privately amused.

These big shots really do think alike, often liking to go on incognito inspections.

Alright~ Since they enjoy it, we should oblige them.

After all, over the years, the Divine Martial World has developed rapidly and is no longer what it used to be, likely to give these bigwigs a refreshing experience.
