"Since the biggest obstacle to breaking off the engagement is the ruler of the Xining Immortal Continent, let's start with him!" Lu Chong declared arrogantly.
"Although the Xining Immortal Continent is quite weak among the Middle Three Continents, its ruler Li Hongtian has reached the Star Immortal Realm. Moreover, he possesses a beast body, making him stronger than humans. You're still one realm below him - are you confident?" Gong Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Of course I am."
Lu Chong replied confidently.
With a wave of his hand.
A pair of manure buckets appeared with a thunderous sound.
Seeing these buckets, Gong Chen immediately understood.
These were top-tier immortal artifacts, nearly reaching the heavenly grade!
With such treasures, even though Lu Chong was only at the late stage of True Essence Immortal Realm, he had a good chance of dealing with a beast at the Star Immortal Realm!
Inevitably.Gong Chen felt envious of Lu Chong.
He envied how Lu Chong had immediately joined the manure collection squad and received such equipment right away.
Unlike him, although Dark Shadow Island had many top-tier immortal artifacts, most were brought from the Heaven and Earth Sect. So people like him could only watch these top-tier artifacts flash before their eyes every day, without ever truly possessing one.
Indeed.
In immortal cultivation.
Luck was crucial.
His time on Dark Shadow Island hadn't brought him as many opportunities as Lu Chong had gained in just one short month.
Especially when Lu Chong, on his third day in the manure collection squad, was assigned to collect from Yi Feng's toilet due to Master Lu's favor.
That single load directly propelled Lu Chong to new heights, from a Heavenly Immortal who was worse than a dog to a Profound Immortal.
"Dear nephew!"
Gong Chen couldn't help but rub his hands together, saying with a smile: "How do you feel your uncle has treated you?"
"Uncle, you've been like a father to me!" Lu Chong said solemnly.
"That's wonderful."
"You truly are my good nephew!"
"So, nephew, when we return, could you perhaps ask Master Lu if he needs more people?"
As he spoke.
Gong Chen couldn't help but flex his biceps, straining his neck as he said: "Although your uncle is getting on in years, I still have some strength left."
"This... Uncle, I'm afraid that's not possible!"
Lu Chong said with an awkward expression: "Everyone in our squad is personally selected by the supervisor..."
"Never mind!"
Seeing Lu Chong's difficult expression, Gong Chen waved his hand in disappointment and said: "Your uncle understands. It's just not my fate. Let's focus on the task at hand!" ꭆÄΝо𝐁Ęs̈
"Yes!"
Lu Chong nodded, gave Gong Chen an apologetic look, then turned his gaze toward Xi Ning City before them.
He understood in his heart.
The important matter came first.
After completing this task, he still needed to return to his manure collection duties.
He casually released a trace of his aura into the city.
This hostile aura immediately caused a stir within the city.
In an instant.
Four figures soared into the air.
All were Nine Transformations Mystic Immortals.
"Who are you two, daring to release hostile intent toward Xi Ning City? Are you seeking death?"
The four took up surrounding positions, encircling Gong Chen and Lu Chong, their voices cold.
The two remained silent.
Mere Nine Transformations Mystic Immortals.
They weren't even worth their attention - they were waiting for the city's true power holder to appear.
Seeing the two remain silent and ignore their words, the four Mystic Immortals' faces darkened with anger.
"You two must be seeking death!"
The four released their auras, their powerful pressure expanding toward the two.
However.
Just as the four were about to attack, a beautiful voice rang out from within the city.
"Stop."
Then they saw a woman in green robes with flowing hair flying toward them.
"Greetings, Holy Maiden!"
Seeing her arrival, the four Mystic Immortals quickly bowed.
"You may leave now!"
The woman nodded, instructing the four.
"Yes!"
The four withdrew.
After they left, the woman turned a complex gaze toward Lu Chong, "I never expected you would leave Dark Shadow Island."
"Li Qingxuan."
Lu Chong also hadn't expected to find his fiancée here.
