TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1267: Chapter 503: Tit for Tat Chapter 1267: Chapter 503: Tit for Tat “Today, I was invited to come here specifically to secure the peace and stability of the Southern Domain, and to contribute a little of my modest power to prevent demons from wreaking havoc,”

Qing Guanzi looked around and, seeing that everyone was awed, slowly retracted his aura and smiled, “But I alone cannot attend to the entire Southern Domain.

When the time comes, I will inevitably trouble my fellow Daoists to lend Taiping Dao a helping hand,” he said.

As he spoke, he turned his gaze toward Ouyang Yuan, Zhu Zhenghe, and other envoys from the Southern Domain Immortal Gate.

Under the scrutiny of an Earth Immortal True Person, the three hurriedly bowed deeply in respect.

Ouyang Yuan even hastily said, “We dare not, we dare not; True Person, just give your orders, and we at Jintai Gate will follow Taiping Dao’s lead.”

Even Zhu Zhenghe, who harbored his own schemes, did not dare to act rashly and obediently added, “Xuan Gui Sect will do the same.”

Zuo Yunting also chimed in from the side, “Bihu Palace is no exception,”

Qing Guanzi chuckled and said, “Then I will have to trouble my fellow Daoists in the future,”

In just a few exchanges, the dominant position of Taiping Dao had been established.

The many observers from other Immortal Sects had varying expressions as they watched this scene unfold.

However, most, especially Qing Immortal Sect, were quite pleased to see its success, as evident from the joyful expression on Yang Jihua’s face.

But things were even more troubling on the side of Jiuzhou Immortal Gate.

The sects of Jiuzhou exchanged glances, and the envoy from Purple Cloud Sect took a step forward.

“Daoist Yan Youyi from Purple Cloud Sect, I have met with True Person,” he greeted.

After performing the courtesy, Yan Youyi, looking at Qing Guanzi, asked boldly, “May I dare to ask True Person, does Taiping Dao wish to become the ruler of Southern Domain, unify these nine nations, and make all the Immortal Sects of Southern Domain bow before Taiping Dao?”

Upon these words, everybody’s complexion changed.

No one expected that, even after an Earth Immortal had made an appearance for Taiping Dao, the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate would still dare to challenge so blatantly.

The tone suggested a direct accusation of Taiping Dao being overbearing.

However, faced with the challenge, Qing Guanzi merely chuckled and responded, “My friend misunderstands.

Our Taiping Dao simply wishes, as a part of Southern Domain, to contribute to maintaining its stability and to the cause of subduing demons and monsters.

Isn’t that the duty of us Immortal Sect Cultivators?”

Yan Youyi sneered, “Just for subduing demons and monsters?

Then why demand that these Southern Domain Immortal Sects recognize you as their leader?”

Qing Guanzi’s expression remained the same, “I merely sought mutual assistance among peers.

Where does this talk of recognizing a master come from?”

Yan Youyi sneered again, then pointing at Ouyang Yuan and others, said, “Mutual assistance among peers?

Are you referring to these shameless, opportunistic fellows rushing to cling to power?

Their actions and words are nothing but like dogs recognizing a master, eagerly pledging loyalty, resembling nothing less than servants.

I see no trace of peers cooperating,”

This was outright insult.

“Arrogant!”

“Nonsensical and slanderous, stop defaming people!”

Zhu Zhenghe and Ouyang Yuan, hearing Yan Youyi demean them in such a manner, could not hold back their reproach even though they knew his words held truth, as difficult as they were to hear.

If they could endure this, from then on, they would carry the reputation of being mere household dogs for the rest of their lives.

How could they face anyone after this spread throughout the entire Changqing Domain and became known by many of their fellow Immortal Sect Cultivators?

Thus, even knowing that Yan Youyi was the envoy from Purple Cloud Sect, the strongest among the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, they had no choice but to stand up and confront him,

However, for these smaller sects’ True Persons, Yan Youyi hardly took them seriously.

Regarding these angry outbursts, it was as if he had heard nothing, his gaze still fixed on Qing Guanzi, waiting for an answer.

Qing Guanzi’s face then lost its smile, becoming expressionless, “Friend, you’ve gone too far.

We are all Daoists here; why would you belittle and slander one another so?

Completely uncalled for and lacking in decorum.”

Everyone could see that this Earth Immortal True Person from Taiping Dao, faced with repeated provocations from Purple Cloud Sect, was starting to get angry,

Yet Yan Youyi remained relentless, merely persisting in his questioning, “True Person, just tell us straight, does Taiping Dao, indeed, intend to become the ruler of the Southern Domain and turn the Southern Domain Immortal Sects into its vassals?”

Qing Guanzi looked deeply at him and then said, “Certainly not.

Taiping Dao only wishes to slay demons and maintain the order of Immortal and human ways.

Nothing more,”

No matter what his true thoughts were,

In this situation, how could Qing Guanzi possibly oblige him by openly admitting to such ambitions?

Some things,

Done privately, are one thing,

To bring them out into the open, for everyone to hear, is quite another.

Even if Taiping Dao did wish to rule over the Southern Domain, it could not be discussed openly, in public,

A necessary facade had to be maintained.

Upon hearing this, Yan Youyi clapped his hands, “Good, then I’ll hold True Person to his word.

This land of the Southern Domain has no master.

Taiping Dao harbors no ambitions to dominate it and won’t coerce the various Immortal Sects into submission.

Everyone present can bear witness,

If Taiping Dao later makes a move against any Southern Domain Immortal Sect, that would be breaking their promise, admitting to having ambitions to dominate, and proving them to be duplicitous.

All of us, as fellow Daoists of the Immortal Sect, are justified in condemning it.”

True Person, my understanding is correct, right?”

Qing Guanzi’s expression cooled further, his anger mounting internally, but since the other party had been sticking to the rules, intertwining his arguments with what had been said, Qing Guanzi could not lash out.

He only said, “No problem.

If there’s nothing else you wish to ask, please return.”

Seeing that further questioning would likely provoke a confrontation,

Yan Youyi, faced with a True Person a Great Realm stronger than himself, did not dare to push too far.

Having gained what he wanted, he then bowed and retreated, “I have nothing more, thank you, True Person, for clarifying.”
