Chapter 213 Reunion with the Holy Son

At this moment, the city lord's face had been completely humiliated, even trampled into the mud. Many of his subordinates and even ordinary people had witnessed it. He knew better than anyone that this incident would become a topic of conversation for the rest of their lives. Whenever they needed to boast, they would say that they had seen a Golden Core stage expert beaten to his knees.

The city lord had already decided to fight to the death, and was even preparing to take a life-or-death pill. At this moment, a Daoist nun walked over from a distance. She looked ordinary, but Gu Yuchuan frowned slightly. He felt pressure from her; she was at least a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator.

"Please stop, both of you. The Demon King is the Holy Son's guest. City Lord, please don't be impolite."

This Daoist nun was of high status, respectfully addressed as the Northern Cliff Immortal. She was a cultivator at the seventh level of the Golden Core realm. The Golden Core realm was a different world at each level, especially the fourth and seventh levels, which were considered major realms. Once you stepped over them, you entered a completely different world. Gu Yuchuan immediately stopped. Originally, he had only acted out of boredom and to vent his anger; there was no major conflict between them.

"I've met this senior before."

Gu Yuchuan's expression was also somewhat cold. He had already shown goodwill in this situation, and if he were to soften his stance again, it would show that he was afraid, and he was clearly unwilling to do so.

"This humble Taoist, Master Beiji, greets the Demon King. I apologize for not greeting you properly, which has caused some misunderstanding between the Demon King and the City Lord. It is my fault. However, although the City Lord's actions were not quite right, his intentions were undoubtedly for the sake of Dragon Tiger City. The Demon King has already given him a small punishment as a warning. Perhaps we should just let this matter go."

Gu Yuchuan nodded. In fact, even if Master Beiji didn't come, he wouldn't do anything else. He could fight or even suppress the other party, but he absolutely couldn't kill him. Otherwise, how could he enter Longhu Mountain? He had considered everything he did, and there wouldn't be too many problems.

"Alright, for the sake of your senior, I won't hold it against him. However, I still want to give him a few words of advice. Sometimes, when you do things, use your brain a little. Don't just act on a whim. I was invited here today to do favors for your Holy Son, so I held back. If I hadn't been invited, given your way of treating guests, I would have killed him and left."

Gu Yuchuan said he didn't care, but he was actually putting pressure on Beiji Zhenren, forcing her to deal with the city lord. Otherwise, he might mention it to the Holy Son.

Those who can become Golden Core cultivators are all intelligent people. Although what he said was somewhat cryptic, it was not incomprehensible. After thinking for a moment, Master Beiji continued in the same direction.

"Indeed, the Demon King is right. Regardless of the circumstances, it is an undeniable fact that the city lord offended the Demon King today. Here's what we'll do: the city lord, prepare some things to apologize to the Demon King and give them to him when the ceremony is over. Demon King, come with me up the mountain. When I arrived, the Holy Son had already arranged a place for you to stay. It's very quiet."

Gu Yuchuan glanced at the corner, the spot where the bird had disappeared in his consciousness. However, he wouldn't reveal it. He would go and meet the bird when he came down from the mountain. After all, he had helped her avoid such a disaster, so he should collect some interest. He secretly made a tracking and monitoring mark and then followed Master Beiji. Among everyone present, only Master Beiji could sense the magical power that Gu Yuchuan had unleashed.

After they left, the city lord also departed without a word. He had completely lost face today and didn't want to go out for a while. What was even more infuriating was that he still had to prepare resources to apologize to Gu Yuchuan. Wasn't this just slapping the other party in the face? He couldn't accept it, but Master Beiji had already made up his mind, and he couldn't change it.

Although they were both Golden Core cultivators, Master Beiji held a much higher position in Longhu Mountain. Master Beiji was the disciple of the Peak Master of Xuanji Peak, a disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and held real power. He was currently in charge of receiving foreign guests in the entire Longhu Mountain. Although it was not a heavy responsibility, it still represented real power. As the dispatched city lord, he dared not resist in the slightest.

Before long, they arrived at Longhu Mountain. As the number one immortal sect in Qingyun Realm, Longhu Mountain was truly magnificent. The entire mountain towered into the clouds. Looking back, it seemed as if they were in a heavenly palace, not in the mortal world. After passing through a waterfall, they finally entered Longhu Mountain. This was a true blessed land and a small secret realm, and also the true residence of Longhu Mountain.

Upon entering, Gu Yuchuan could feel that the spiritual energy here was much denser than outside. Even without different spirit stones, the cultivation speed here could be greatly improved. It was indeed a blessed land of the immortal realm, far superior to the Demon Lord's Cloud Sea Heavenly Palace.

He looked up and saw many cranes playing in the sky. Upon closer inspection, he saw that many of them had grown into powerful beings, and there were even a few cranes in the Foundation Establishment stage, although their strength was quite ordinary.

"Demon King, come this way."

Kitajimaru interrupted his thoughts and led him forward. Soon, they reached the edge of a cliff, where several clouds came to meet them.

"Let's go, Demon King. Beyond this lies the Dao Court of my Dragon Tiger Mountain. The Holy Son is waiting for you there."

Stepping onto the clouds, he discovered that these were actually exquisite formations. No wonder this was human territory; all kinds of cultivation arts were flourishing. The alliance between humans and demons was definitely the best thing the demons had done in recent years, allowing them to gradually learn advanced human technology. Others might not know, but he himself had at least learned advanced weapon-refining techniques. With his talent, even if he couldn't refine spiritual treasures, as his strength increased, he could still refine top-grade magic weapons, which would be a significant improvement.

From the air, he looked down and could see endless mountain peaks and surging rivers. This secluded paradise of Longhu Mountain was very much in harmony with nature, and it was very much in line with their Taoist philosophy.

Before long, they entered a grand hall, where the Holy Son was already waiting for them.

"Brother Gu has finally arrived. I apologize for not greeting you properly."

He had always treated Gu Yuchuan well, so Gu Yuchuan was willing to give him face.

"What are you saying? Right now, you're busy preparing for your ceremony, so why would I care about such things?"

After they met, Master Beiji left immediately, and the Holy Son led Gu Yuchuan inside.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. Here, I've had some wine and fruit prepared. Let's have a good drink and chat."

His attitude was a little too friendly, which made Gu Yuchuan feel that something was amiss.
