The man in green, Qian Qi, displayed profound cultivation upon his arrival.
Thousand-mile sound transmission, shrinking the ground into an inch – both were profound immortal sect secret arts.
Furthermore, judging by his appearance, he was as refined as jade and bamboo, a dragon among men.
Everyone speculated that this person must be someone of consequence in the Moon Radiance Realm.
Either a peerless prodigy or an otherworldly master.
To their surprise, he turned out to be an unknown figure, leading to great disappointment.
"You are ignorant. Qian Qi was the title of this senior five hundred years ago.
It's normal that none of you know it, but this senior has another name that you all must know.
If I say it, you will all have to come and pay your respects."
Seeing everyone pointing and chattering about Qian Qi,
Yong Gao Ya rolled his eyes at them and proudly introduced the man in green.
His tone was respectful. Despite his snow-white hair and beard, he addressed Qian Qi, who appeared to be in his thirties, as a senior.
"Elder Yong, stop playing coy.
Who is this person? I truly don't believe it.
All the sect leaders of the Moon Radiance Realm's immortal sects are here. Can he make all of us pay our respects together?"
The Valley Master of Divine Physician Valley stood up and said. His Divine Physician Valley treated the sick and saved the living.
Although his cultivation was not high, others owed them favors.
They never owed anyone favors and were never treated poorly wherever they went.
He genuinely did not believe that, given his status,
There was anyone superior to him who could make all the sect leaders and elders present actively pay their respects.
"This senior's title is, Living Immortal!"
Yong Gao Ya gave the Valley Master of Divine Physician Valley a look of disdain.
His voice was not loud, but to everyone present,
It was like thunder from the heavens, like a giant stone thrown into a deep pool, stirring up a thousand waves.
The jaws of everyone present dropped.
They hurriedly rose from their seats to pay their respects, with the Valley Master of Divine Physician Valley being the fastest.
Living Immortal – this name was widely known throughout the Moon Radiance Realm.
Not only among the immortal sects but also among mortals, it was known to every man, woman, and child.
His legend had been circulating in the Moon Radiance Realm for over five hundred years.
It was said that he could have ascended long ago, but for some unknown reason,
He remained in the Moon Radiance Realm, becoming an Earth Immortal.
This was why the people of the immortal sects called him Living Immortal.
Living Immortal's cultivation was not only peerless, he had slain countless demonic cultivators.
Moreover, he was just and fair, and skilled in divination.
He was deeply respected by the people of the immortal sects, so even though he was a rogue cultivator without any sect affiliation,
His status among cultivators was that of a god.
Furthermore, he had not appeared for a hundred years. The sect leaders and elders present,
Had all grown up hearing his legends and considered him a hero.
Upon hearing that this seemingly unknown Qian Qi was the renowned Living Immortal,
They were filled with admiration and rushed to leave their seats to kowtow.
"Fellow Daoists, there's no need for such formalities.
I have merely lived a few more years. We cultivators,
Do not need these elaborate rituals. Please rise!"
With just his name, Living Immortal effortlessly regained his position as the center of attention.
Control returned to his hands. Standing among the crowd, he appeared approachable.
The sect leaders were all astute individuals, knowing that Living Immortal's visit to Golden Crow Palace must be for an important matter.
Otherwise, why would he, who had disappeared for a century, suddenly appear today?
Therefore, upon hearing Living Immortal's words, they returned to their seats.
However, as Living Immortal remained standing, they dared not sit.
They stood by their chairs, not daring to be seated, as a sign of respect.
The only ones who remained unmoved were Golden Crow Fairy, Ji Shiyou, and Ming Yue.
Add to that the Sect Leader of Heavenly Dao Sect, He Lianbo, who was being restrained, and the Four Symbols Envoys, who were tied up by the disciples of Golden Crow Palace.
Ming Yue did not move because she was ignorant.
She had no idea of Living Immortal's fame, and also, Ji Shiyou was holding her back.
Upon hearing the name Living Immortal, Ji Shiyou's expression changed drastically.
Ming Yue could feel that Ji Shiyou's hand was sweating and couldn't help but look up at him curiously.
"It's nothing!"
Sensing Ming Yue's gaze, Ji Shiyou uttered two words.
His expression returned to normal, and he subtly led Ming Yue a few steps back.
Golden Crow Fairy, upon hearing Living Immortal's title, also wanted to go and pay her respects.
Living Immortal was also someone she respected and admired.
The reason she didn't move was that she was actively restraining herself.
It was because Living Immortal was clearly allied with Yong Gao Ya, an enemy, not a friend.
She frowned, pondering in her mind.
She speculated why Living Immortal would appear here and what his true purpose was in coming to Golden Crow Palace.
Why had he colluded with Yong Gao Ya, and how should she respond next?
"Senior, you have been out of worldly affairs for many years.
Why have you suddenly appeared?
And what is this matter of great importance concerning the welfare of all beings that you mentioned?"
Unable to figure it out, Golden Crow Fairy decided to stop thinking.
She swiftly cut to the chase, aiming for the core of the matter, wanting to hear Living Immortal's explanation.
However, she addressed Living Immortal as senior, her tone respectful.
"Golden Crow Fairy, what is the status of Senior Living Immortal?
Everyone has come to pay their respects, yet you remain seated on your high platform.
This is disrespectful to Senior. Are you not afraid that Senior will blame you and kill you?"
Jun Shuxue now had not only Yong Gao Ya's support but also Living Immortal's backing.
Ever since Living Immortal entered, Jun Shuxue had immediately puffed out her chest and held her head high.
She didn't put anyone in her eyes, like a peacock displaying its feathers.
The person she met by the river that day was Living Immortal.
At first, she didn't believe him when Living Immortal said he would help her.
It wasn't until Living Immortal brought her to the forbidden area of Golden Crow Palace in the back mountain of Mount Wuliang.
And saw Yong Gao Ya, who was in seclusion, that she felt Living Immortal hadn't lied to her.
Although she hadn't seen Yong Gao Ya, she had seen his portrait.
So she poured out her grievances to Yong Gao Ya, begging the ancestor to avenge her grandfather.
Yong Gao Ya, upon hearing this, told Jun Shuxue about Living Immortal's identity.
He signaled her to seek Living Immortal's help. Only then did Jun Shuxue realize.
That the handsome man in green before her was the renowned Living Immortal.
So, before Living Immortal could speak, she jumped out to borrow his prestige,
Pointing and gesturing at Golden Crow Fairy on the high platform, arrogantly saying.
"Noisy!"
Golden Crow Fairy looked at Jun Shuxue, who was acting like a clown, and sent a palm strike through the air.
Jun Shuxue's body was sent flying, half of her face swollen like a pig's head.
She could no longer make a sound, having been beaten into unconsciousness.
Golden Crow Fairy's action was sudden.
No one expected Golden Crow Fairy to dare to injure someone in front of Living Immortal.
So even Yong Gao Ya didn't react in time, and it was too late to stop her.
"Golden Crow, you dare to injure someone in front of Senior?"
Yong Gao Ya quickly went to check on Jun Shuxue's injuries. Fortunately, it was only external, and she had fainted.
He then stood up, pointing his whisk at Golden Crow Fairy.
His hand trembled. Golden Crow Fairy wasn't just hitting Jun Shuxue.
She was clearly not taking him seriously and was slapping his face.
"I dare, of course, I dare.
Don't forget, I am the Palace Master of Golden Crow Palace, and you are people of Golden Crow Palace.
In Golden Crow Palace, I handle Golden Crow Palace's internal affairs.
Senior is renowned for his virtue, and as a guest,
He naturally will not interfere, nor will he blame me.
Senior, am I right?"
Golden Crow Fairy smiled at Living Immortal, using words to provoke him.
"Golden Crow Fairy handles her internal affairs, and I naturally will not interfere."
Living Immortal also smiled, while Yong Gao Ya's face turned ashen.
"Then Senior, please tell Golden Crow what this matter of great importance concerning the welfare of all beings is.
Everyone wants to know and can't wait any longer."
Golden Crow Fairy's words echoed the sentiments of everyone present.
Living Immortal had been playing coy since he entered, and still hadn't clarified the matter.
Everyone wanted to know, but out of respect for his status, they dared not ask.
"Golden Crow Fairy, this matter concerns the entire immortal sect.
It can be said that it is closely related to everyone present.
The various immortal sects should unite at this time, temporarily putting aside internal grievances.
And face the common enemy together.
I have a humble request, and I hope that Fairy will grant me this favor and release the people of Heavenly Dao Sect first."
Living Immortal still did not directly reveal the matter of concern to everyone, but first made a request.
"Certainly, I will give face to Senior. Golden Crow will oblige."
Golden Crow Fairy raised her hand, and the Golden Crow Fire Net that had been restraining He Lianbo instantly disappeared.
Ever since Living Immortal entered, He Lianbo's eyes had been fixed on him, not letting go.
It seemed as if he had a thousand words to say to Living Immortal.
But after being freed, he simply walked to Living Immortal's side.
He did not speak, nor did he thank Living Immortal.
With Ji Shiyou right there, he didn't cause any trouble.
Instead, he stood silently behind Living Immortal.
From a distance, he looked like a follower.
"Senior, can you tell us now?"
Golden Crow Fairy urged again, thinking to herself, this person is truly dragging his feet.
"Everyone, my visit this time is related to the rare treasure that has just appeared in Four Peaks Mountain."
As soon as Living Immortal spoke, Ming Yue involuntarily clutched her storage bag.
