Wu Chang Jie

There are four people who are recognized to be the pinnacle in today's immortal cultivation world and they are treated with the utmost respect.

Wuliang Sect's leader Li Bu Yu, Chunyang Sect's leader Xu Zhi Nan, Cangyu Sect's leader Qi Meng Sheng and the Underworld's martial judge Zhong Kui. Originally, in terms of seniority, power, and status, Zhong Kui, a casual immortal, could not be compared to the first three. It was hard to tell the difference without fighting until the magical treasure, the Eastern Emperor's Bell, was acquired by him and he was revered as the "number one man in the world".

In addition, the first three had all lived through the era of Emperor Zong, and Wuliang Sect had been related to the Zong clan by marriage. The current leaders of these centuries-old immortal families were all survivors of the Supreme Demon Zong Zi Xiao, so they were all secretive about the demon cultivators who stole cores and the Zongxuan Sword Technique. Even though Zhong Kui was an open-minded and unrestrained man, he had to bring someone up to Yunding to explain the Zongxuan Sword Technique when he learned that his disciple had used it.

It was only after Xie Bi An had noticed the seriousness of the atmosphere that he realized the main purpose of the trip.

Although Li Bu Yu was already a man with grey hair, he did not look aged in his posture. He looked thin and dignified, and he had an immortal and Taoist aura around him. The position of the head of the Immortal Alliance is actually the same as that of Emperor Zong back then, except that all the immortals no longer have to submit to him, nor do they have to pay taxes and tributes, and this position is not hereditary. It was only with justice that a century of peace in the immortal cultivation world was achieved.

All the families, except Zhong Kui, sent their juniors to send birthday gifts. When Li Bu Yu was seated at the main table, the juniors bowed and only took their seats when they were allowed to do so.

Li Bu Yu's hazel eyes swept towards Zhong Kui: "Zheng Nan, did you sleep well last night?" His tone was calm, even a little gentle, but he had a certain majesty about him.

Zhong Kui smiled, "I slept well when I drink well, thanks to Alliance Master's wine."

"Where is your disciple? I heard that Impermanence was not feeling well yesterday."

Xie Bi An arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your concern, Immortal Lord, junior is not seriously ill."

Zhong Kui wondered, "What's wrong, why are you not feeling well?"

Xie Bi An said quietly, "I just had a little cold, I'm fine."

Li Bu Yu's gaze fell on Fan Wu She again.

Fan Wu She also looked at Li Bu Yu quietly and laughed coldly in his heart: he had already aged like this.

"Oh, this is my newly accepted disciple." Zhong Kui said, "From now on, these two disciples of mine will take up this impermanence position."

Lan Chui Han laughed, "One black and one white? That's wonderful."

Li Bu Yu said, "Zheng Nan, your two disciples not only have excellent roots, but they also have outstanding looks, and they are highly sought after by immortals. Where did you find them?"

Zhong Kui grinned, "I picked them up."

The crowd laughed along with him. It wasn't really funny, but Zhong Kui was obviously trying to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial. Who didn't want to sell face to* Heaven Master?

Li Bu Yu also smiled lightly, "I heard from Chun Gui that you had some misunderstandings at Fumenghui."

Song Chun Gui said, "Master, it was this disciple who was at fault. In order to investigate the murder of Senior Brother Meng, my apprentice wanted to bring these two young masters back to Yunding for questioning at Fumenghui, not knowing at that time they were the Impermanence."
