炎玥蓉 thought of the continuous pursuits and fell silent, her faith in the Immortal Festival seemingly collapsing.

Sensing Yan Yuerong's distress, Xiao Xiaoyu quickly took out a jade bottle and handed it to the middle-aged man, saying, "Venerable Master, this is a Immortal King Pill obtained from the Great Wilderness. I was planning to keep it for Yuerong…"

Mo Wuji glanced at Xiao Xiaoyu in surprise. Xiao Xiaoyu herself desperately needed this kind of immortal pill, yet she could say that she wanted to leave it for Yan Yuerong. It would be difficult for any Grand Luo Immortal to make such a difficult decision.

"Immortal King Pill?" The middle-aged man opened the jade bottle immediately, and surprise appeared on his face as well. "It's actually a top-grade Immortal King Pill. Xiaoyu, how did you get such a precious immortal pill?"

Ever since the Immortal King fruit trees planted in the Immortal World gradually withered, Immortal King Pills became increasingly precious. Not to mention a top-grade Immortal King Pill, which had to be refined by a Grade 7 peak Pill Emperor or a Grade 8 Pill Emperor.

Xiao Xiaoyu quickly pointed at Mo Wuji, "This pill was picked up by Dahuang…"

Then she told the story Mo Wuji had told.

Picked up? The middle-aged man's divine sense immediately enveloped Mo Wuji. He didn't believe that an Immortal King Pill could be picked up.

Mo Wuji sneered inwardly. So what if he's an Immortal Venerable? Could an Immortal Venerable detect his meridians? Don't dream. An Immortal King Pill couldn't be picked up, and an Immortal Venerable couldn't detect his cultivation either.

After a while, the middle-aged man withdrew his divine sense and sighed, "He really is a person with great fortune, but it's a pity that he only has mortal roots and is a mortal."

Yan Yuerong's talk of helping Mo Wuji find martial arts techniques was just a statement. Not to mention whether she could find top-level martial arts techniques, even if she did, how many people could succeed? Martial arts cultivation was even more difficult than immortal cultivation, and the requirements for aptitude were even more demanding.

At this time, he also believed that Mo Wuji was really lucky to pick up an Immortal King Pill. After all, even though the probability was small, it was still possible. On the contrary, it was absolutely impossible for a mortal like Mo Wuji to obtain a top-grade Immortal King Pill.

The middle-aged man handed the jade bottle back to Xiao Xiaoyu, "This is your opportunity. After tonight's Immortal Assembly, I will protect you as you prepare to undergo your tribulation to advance to Immortal King. As for Yuerong, when she reaches the Grand Luo Immortal Realm, she will naturally have her own opportunities."

"Yes, thank you, Venerable Master." Xiao Xiaoyu quickly bowed to thank him. She truly yearned to advance to Immortal King.

Yan Yuerong came to Mo Wuji's front happily and said gratefully, "Thank you, Dahuang. Come with us tonight to see the Immortal Sect Assembly. Perhaps you will prove the Dao through martial arts in the future."

After speaking, she looked at the middle-aged man pleadingly, "Great-Grandfather, let me take Dahuang to see the Immortal Sect Assembly. In the future, Dahuang will be following me, so it's good for him to see more things."

Perhaps because Mo Wuji brought back an Immortal King Pill, the middle-aged man pondered for a while and then nodded, "Alright. Because this assembly involves the Water Origin Pearl, there is also news about the Five Elements Origin Pearls. After you go, whatever you hear, just keep it in your heart and don't say much."

Mo Wuji really didn't want to attend this kind of Immortal Sect Assembly. After knowing that Yan Yuerong was fine, he planned to leave. But the last sentence of Yan Yuerong's great-grandfather stopped Mo Wuji. He also wanted to know the news of the Five Elements Pearls.

…

Fengchuan Immortal City was originally a small immortal city, and the largest meeting place was the City Lord's Mansion's council hall.

The appearance of the Water Origin Pearl and numerous Chaos Jellyfish Crystals in Poison Water Lake caused a sensation throughout the entire Yongying Immortal Domain.

How could anyone tolerate such treasures being taken away by a mere Grand Zhi Immortal?

Therefore, even though the Immortal Sect Assembly was held hastily, there were still many sect powerhouses who arrived in time. Everyone had only one purpose: the Chaos Jellyfish Crystals and the Water Origin Pearl.

Mo Wuji followed Yan Yuerong and Xiao Xiaoyu closely. As a mortal, he didn't want to be turned away on some pretext.

Fortunately, no one checked whether Mo Wuji was a mortal, and he easily arrived at the council hall.

The council hall of the City Lord's Mansion had been transformed into a social gathering place. Mo Wuji even saw some familiar faces.

Qin Yihe of the Supreme Dao Sect, this woman was Murong Xiangyu's master. Not seeing Murong Xiangyu, he didn't know if this woman had returned to the Supreme Dao Sect after coming out of the third level of the Broken World. There was also Tu Bei of the One Sword Sect, this guy was also a mid-stage Immortal Venerable.

Yan Yuerong's great-grandfather's Immortal Venerable cultivation didn't seem special among these people.

Mo Wuji was observing Qin Yihe. He once had a deal with Yan Ye, going to see Murong Xiangyu on Yan Ye's behalf. Later, he used Murong Xiangyu to go to the Jagged Immortal Ruins, and then he went to the Broken World by his own ability. In the Broken World, he saved Murong Xiangyu, and Murong Xiangyu protected the Seven Pages of the Book of Luo. Murong Xiangyu also gave him two pages of the Book of Luo as thanks. One of these two pages was on him, and the other, he entrusted Lin Gu to bring to Cen Shuyin.

At this moment, a fragrant breeze appeared behind him. Mo Wuji came with Yan Yuerong and Xiao Xiaoyu, he was sure that the person behind him was not one of them.

Mo Wuji, who originally wanted to quickly step aside, suddenly thought that he was still a mortal, so he pretended not to know and continued to observe.

"What's your name?" A familiar voice came. Mo Wuji seemed to be startled and suddenly turned his head.

It was actually a familiar person, Ji Yue.

Ji Yue was already peerlessly beautiful, and after these years, she had become even more alluring.

"Dahuang…" Mo Wuji said in a muffled voice. He didn't understand why Ji Yue was looking for him. If Ji Yue recognized him as Yan Ye, he would never believe it.

"I don't know why, but I feel like I've known you for a long time." Ji Yue smiled enchantingly at Mo Wuji, "Anyway, you look quite heroic."

Mo Wuji broke out in a cold sweat. This woman's intuition was simply too terrifying. What he feared the most was this kind of guy who relied on intuition.

This woman was not only scary with her intuition, but also skilled. Her cultivation had advanced from the late stage of the Profound Immortal to the mid-stage of the Grand Yi Immortal, and she looked so comfortable now, which shows that she must have gotten rid of the shackles of being used as capital by the Ji family to marry out.

"Dahuang, who is she?" Yan Yuerong and Xiao Xiaoyu, who had just left to greet their great-grandfather, came back and asked with some surprise when they saw the beautiful Ji Yue.

Ji Yue smiled sweetly, "I'm just passing by, I'm leaving."

After speaking, she turned around and left, without any intention of stopping.

Mo Wuji shook his head in a daze, "I don't know either, she just came over and said I had some spirit, and then smiled at me with a nice smile. It's like the smile of Sister Chun in our village when she's hooking up with men, I don't know if she's trying to hook me up too…"

"Pfft!" Even Xiao Xiaoyu, who didn't like to smile, almost spat out her drink because of Mo Wuji's words. Would such a stunning Grand Yi Immortal woman go and hook up with a seaside fisherman?

Ji Yue, who was walking away, almost staggered when she heard Mo Wuji's words.

Fortunately, a voice relieved her from the embarrassment, "Fellow Immortal Friends, this Immortal Sect Assembly was held in a hurry, because the matter is rather urgent. There are many Immortal Friends here with prestige and cultivation far above me. Because this temporary Immortal Sect Assembly is being held in my Fengchuan Immortal City, I, the City Lord, will reluctantly preside over this Immortal Sect Assembly. Now, please be seated, all you Immortal Friends who have come from afar."

The man who spoke had a moustache and an early-stage Immortal Venerable cultivation. He couldn't tell his age, and on the surface, he seemed younger than Yan Yuerong's great-grandfather.

Yan Yuerong, Xiao Xiaoyu, and Mo Wuji also sat down. Because of their low status, they sat in the back.

"Sister Xiaoyu, is that the City Lord of Fengchuan Immortal City, Senior Dong Shanglie?" Yan Yuerong asked softly.

Xiao Xiaoyu quickly raised her hand to set up a soundproof barrier, "Miss, you can't just talk casually here. Our strength here, even if we speak softly, we will be heard."

Yan Yuerong nodded quickly, not daring to ask any more.

Mo Wuji knew that Yan Yuerong's words must have been heard by that Dong Shanglie. If an Immortal Venerable couldn't hear you calling out his name at such a close distance, that would be strange.

Fortunately, this Dong Shanglie wasn't some quirky fellow, he didn't care about low-level immortals calling him by his name directly.

"I won't beat around the bush, the main purpose of this assembly is for the ten Chaos Jellyfish Crystals and one Water Origin Pearl that came out of the Poison Water Lake…"

Even though everyone knew the reason for this Immortal Assembly, after Dong Shanglie said the words "Jellyfish Crystals" and "Water Origin Pearl", it still caused a stir.

Dong Shanglie paused slightly before continuing, "According to eyewitness descriptions, the cultivator who took away the Jellyfish Crystals and the Water Origin Pearl is a Grand Zhi Immortal with a twisted scar on his face."

After speaking, Dong Shanglie raised his hand, and the image of Mo Wuji before he entered the Poison Water Lake appeared in the void.

After a moment, Dong Shanglie waved his hand, and Mo Wuji's image disappeared, "This person not only has the ability to resist the poison of the Poison Water Lake, but also has the means of spatial teleportation, and his appearance is likely to be disguised."

"City Lord Dong, this person left as soon as he came out, how do you know that he obtained ten Jellyfish Crystals and a Water Origin Pearl?" A tall, late-stage Immortal Venerable cultivator suddenly asked.

Dong Shanglie cupped his fists, "Immortal Friend Huang is right. After that person left, someone immediately entered the Poison Water Lake and found the house where he took away the Jellyfish Crystals and the Water Origin Pearl. The things in the house were all taken away, but a jade slip was left behind. The jade slip clearly stated that among the things passed down, besides other treasures, there were ten Jellyfish Crystals and one Water Origin Pearl."

"Then where is the cultivator who obtained the jade slip?" The tall Immortal Venerable continued to ask.

Dong Shanglie said in a low voice, "His poison is too heavy, it's hard to say if he can survive tonight."

Mo Wuji's heart sank. He was sure that there was no jade slip when he entered the house at the bottom of the lake. As for the cultivator who entered the bottom of the lake and was heavily poisoned, Mo Wuji was 100% sure that he had been taken over. In other words, the expert at the bottom of the lake came out. Fortunately, he had an Immortal World, otherwise, the aura of the Water Origin Pearl might have been sensed.

(I thought I could update another chapter last night, but I got to the hotel close to eleven o'clock. It was too tiring from the bumpy road, and I fell asleep without even eating dinner, so that chapter is owed. The updates are unstable these days, so there may not necessarily be a good night when there is no update, please forgive me.)
