Chapter 943: Do not turn Dao sects into marketplaces, and use fewer schemes to serve the immortals
A soft murmur gradually rose, echoing in her heart for a long time. Chu Zhen seemed to be in a state of lingering tension, her gaze lost in thought.
In the Ancient City of True Spirits, she had long heard of the Five Aggregates Sect. In the Jade Canopy Forest Sea, there was no being unaware of the sect, for the fame of the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements was too grand.
At the most brilliant moment of his immortal path, his words illuminated the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds, eventually falling into silence.
Chu Zhen knew him as Chen Xun, Xun with the water radical, who chased after the convoy with a small trot, only to speak nonsense.
For some reason, whenever she thought of him, a faint smile would appear on her face. It wasn't because she was happy to cling to a powerful figure, nor was it out of admiration or affection.
That feeling was like having played countless tunes, and finally, for once, striking the right chord.
Perhaps, this was the joy of fulfilling the wish of a fellow Daoist met by chance on the path of immortality, at least, that's what she believed.
The Chu family patriarch looked at Chu Zhen kindly and smiled, "Zhen'er, have you made up your mind?"
Chu Zhen met his aged gaze and smiled with relief, "Patriarch, Zhen'er is willing."
The Chu family patriarch showed a gratified smile, giving Chu Zhen a deep look, "Zhen'er, remember to come back and visit. The Chu family will send people to clean Chu Yin Garden regularly, nothing will be disturbed."
"Thank you, Patriarch." Chu Zhen bowed her head in farewell, her eyes still showing a trace of reluctance.
"Go with peace of mind, our Chu family in the Ancient City of True Spirits will not be wiped out, we're doing quite well, haha!"
The Chu family patriarch suddenly became a bit unorthodox, laughing loudly, "No matter when you return from seeking the Dao, our Chu family will not go astray."
Chu Zhen was also amused by the patriarch, her ancestor had a rather good mindset.
Back when he crossed the tribulation, he insisted on holding a tribulation ceremony, and the miserable scene was secretly mocked by outsiders to this day.
She respectfully saluted again, always speaking little, then turned and left.
The Chu family patriarch stood in place with a sigh, his smile deepening, looking rejuvenated, after all, a joyous event brings a refreshed spirit, even his appearance seemed a few years younger.
To be honest, even he was in a daze internally, why, what did the Chu family have to offer?!
He watched Chu Zhen grow up, apart from meeting the Jun family young master at the music hall, there were no other fortuitous encounters!
Now being so valued by the immortal Dao Ancestor, he had deep suspicions about Chu Zhen, could it be that Zhen'er saved the Three Thousand Great Worlds in a past life...
Of course, the greatest possibility was the Chu family ancestral tomb showing its spirit, but that was not some mysticism or speculation.
A Great Ascension Venerable's passing, requesting a great cultivator to build a tomb to channel fortune, that fortune could be passed through bloodline legacies.
This point was recognized in the grand world, even immortals had never said there was an issue with this path.
The Chu family patriarch secretly planned, the next Chu family ancestral worship should be grandly held, with an ancestral worship ceremony... inviting the entire Ancient City of True Spirits to observe.
He coughed lightly, planning that after his passing, he would announce to the four directions, invite the Holy Land Heavenly Venerable, and then hold an ascension ceremony, yes... not bad.
The Chu family patriarch felt much more at ease, looking calmly towards the sky.
As for tying the Chu family to the Five Aggregates Sect, he had never thought of it.
In the mind of a Heavenly Venerable, there was no thought of clinging, understanding well not to treat the Dao sects as a marketplace, using less scheming to serve the immortals, living clearly and openly.
At this moment, the entire Ancient City of True Spirits was already covered by an earth-shattering uproar, the Ancient Bell of True Spirits no longer ringing warnings, having been severely damaged by the chaos of the Shi Rong Immortal.
Above the sky, at the forefront of the Immortal Alliance warship.
Yun Shao looked towards the Chu family with a radiant smile, Qian Shan's gaze was deep and profound, expressionless, the two standing side by side, the Heavenly Venerable's might undisguisedly emanating.
In the Wild Heaven Region, a place where the strong compete, the stronger you appear, the less trouble you encounter, playing the pig to eat the tiger doesn't work here.
"Qian Shan, if Lord Crossing the World learns of this news, he will surely be very pleased."
Yun Shao, now full of grace, her moonlit skirt swirling in the air, her three thousand strands of black hair gracefully falling to her waist, exuding a dignified and graceful yet capable and imposing aura.
"Mm..." Qian Shan smiled faintly, saying nothing more.
But outsiders didn't know, it wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but he really didn't dare to.
Lord Ji Yan had once taken them back to Trash Island, letting Tian Li set up a game in the pile of immortal material trash, he had once joked about Lord Crossing the World in casual conversation.
"This Crossing the World, outwardly carefree, with mana immensely strong, but inwardly timid, even saying he wasn't in his right mind back then, not bringing a friend along."
Ji Yan's lips curled into a mocking smile, "He even vaguely mentioned some stories in front of me, in this state, if he were a mortal, he'd be crying to me, haha... this Crossing the World!"
These words were full of mockery, scaring Tian Li into crushing a chess piece, and even the calm and composed Qian Shan secretly broke into a cold sweat for Ji Yan.
Lord Crossing the World's god-slaying demeanor in the Immortal Prison, his unparalleled immortal might in the Milky Way battle, Ji Yan... you really dare to speak!
But, Ji Yan was indifferent, teasing Chen Xun a few more times, then sending them to bring Chu Zhen of the Chu family in the Ancient City of True Spirits back to the Five Aggregates Sect.
This was just a minor task, but for Ji Yan to personally mention it amidst his busy schedule, and send the two of them, it signified something not simple, proving this girl held a significant place in Lord Crossing the World's heart.
As for their stay here, the Chu family patriarch thought they were inquiring, respecting Chu Zhen's opinion, but that wasn't the case... today, she must be taken to the Five Aggregates Sect.
The opinion must be decided by Lord Crossing the World himself, not by the Chu family.
After all, they weren't clear about Chu Zhen's status in the Chu family, anyway, it wasn't at the level of the patriarch.
If obstructed, they wouldn't bother with reason.
In the Immortal Prison, cultivators pursued strength, to use strength to speak their own truth in front of others.
Not to respect your truth, or follow your ideas.
Among billions of races, customs, civilizations, and environments differ greatly, the impact between them is vast and magnificent, if discussing immortal etiquette, it would take until the Three Thousand Great Worlds fell and were destroyed.
Still, one's own immortal strength can save a lot of time between each other, especially in the Wild Heaven Region and the special regions of the great worlds, it is the classic among classics!
At this moment, the rosy clouds and mist had been dispersed by the warship, the sky was clear.
Yun Shao turned her head to Qian Shan, "This girl from the Chu family has gone to prepare, some information has been checked, her background is fine, and she has never entered the star hubs of the Nine Great Worlds."
