Chapter 1146: Cao Wuji

Although Wen Ya, Long Er, and Liu Yanran are relatively famous in Youzhou, it is limited only to Youzhou.

To the experts present here, they are somewhat unfamiliar.

After all.

Once they reach their status and position, the targets they pay attention to are the top experts of each continent.

And not heaven-gifted geniuses.

Those who can reach their realm, which one of them is not a genius among geniuses?

So-called heaven-gifted geniuses must grow up before they have the qualifications to receive their attention.

They looked at the three women, lost in thought.

Rumor has it that the master of Youyun Holy Land, Luo Ling, is not very capable, and the Saint Lord's Wife could not endure it, so she got together with a junior from the Beast Taming Sect.

Now she has left Youyun Holy Land and is temporarily staying at the Beast Taming Sect.

Could it be...

These three juniors, along with Xuan Ji, could they be from the Beast Taming Sect?

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly realized.

That's right...

It is rumored that a powerful Alchemist appeared in Youzhou who can refine an Eighth-tier Intermediate Pill called the Divine Martial Pill.

Relying on this Pill, Youzhou successfully repelled the Sea Clan.

Previously, when they were in the decisive battle with the Sea Clan, the pills consumed by the experts of the Ancient God Palace were extremely similar to the rumored Divine Martial Pill.

Coupled with the appearance of Xuan Ji.

The result was already very obvious.

Xuan Ji and these three juniors all come from the Beast Taming Sect.

As for the pills that the Ancient God Palace experts consumed on the battlefield earlier, they must have been brought by them.

In this way.

It makes sense why Qi Tongtian treats these few people so favorably.

Although the Divine Martial Pill was refined by that Eighth-tier Intermediate Alchemist, these few people, after all, have the favor of delivering the pills.

Given Qi Tongtian's personality, it would be strange if he didn't treat them favorably.

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly understood.

They shifted their attention away from Xuan Ji and the other four.

Just at this moment.

A figure suddenly walked in from outside the great hall.

Everyone looked over.

Immediately, their brows furrowed one after another.

A Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator?

This is a place where the high-level members of various sects attend a banquet; how could a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator dare to barge in so recklessly?

Everyone subconsciously looked at Qi Tongtian.

Following that, they were all stunned.

The scene they imagined of Qi Tongtian flying into a rage and scolding the intruder did not happen.

On the contrary.

Not only was there no trace of anger on Qi Tongtian's face, but a hearty smile appeared instead.

He even stood up from his seat.

"The little friend has arrived?"

"Come, come, please sit."

Qi Tongtian stood up with a smile and pointed to a table next to his own.

This table was exactly where Xuan Ji, Wen Ya, Long Er, and Liu Yanran were located.

Hearing Qi Tongtian's greeting, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Many thanks, Senior."

After speaking, he went to the table where Xuan Ji and the others were and sat down.

Seeing this scene, everyone was lost in thought.

It seems this person is also from the Beast Taming Sect.

However, Qi Tongtian's attitude is a bit too polite.

After Wang Jianqiang sat down, Qi Tongtian did not sit, but swept his gaze over everyone present and said with a smile, "There is one thing I haven't had time to tell you all: the reason my Cangzhou was able to repel the Sea Clan army is thanks to the pills delivered by Fairy Xuan Ji and these few little friends."

"If not for the Divine Martial Pill they delivered, we certainly would not have been able to achieve victory."

"Here, I, Qi, propose that we all raise a glass to Fairy Xuan Ji and these few little friends."

Regarding the matter of the Divine Martial Pill, everyone already had their guesses.

After hearing Qi Tongtian's words, they only showed a look of realization and did not feel surprised.

As for Qi Tongtian's proposal, although a portion of those present did not agree with it.

But hindered by the power of the Ancient God Palace, no one dared to raise an objection.

They echoed him one after another, stood up, and raised their wine glasses.

"Palace Master, this old man feels that there is no need for this."

Just at this moment, an old man with white hair and beard beside Qi Tongtian suddenly spoke.

Hearing the old man's words, those cultivators who did not belong to the Ancient God Palace looked at the old man, their expressions flickering.

No one spoke.

As for the Cultivators of the Ancient God Palace, upon seeing the old man speak, looks of awe flashed through their eyes one after another, and they dared not interrupt.

The old man is the oldest Supreme Elder in the Ancient God Palace today.

He is also the only Major Accomplishment Late Stage Cultivator in the Ancient God Palace besides Qi Tongtian.

His name is Cao Wuji.

Among all the Supreme Elders of the Ancient God Palace, he is the one held in the highest esteem.

Ordinarily, even Qi Tongtian, this iron-blooded Palace Master, must show him three parts of respect when facing him!

Hearing Cao Wuji's cold tone, Qi Tongtian frowned, "Elder Cao, what do you mean by this?"

Facing Qi Tongtian, Cao Wuji maintained his indifferent expression, "The Divine Martial Pill was purchased by us spending resources; it is merely a transaction, there is no talk of sentiment."

"Furthermore..."

"Even if we must speak of sentiment, it is the sentiment of the Beast Taming Sect, and that Eighth-tier Intermediate Alchemist."

"As for these people, they are merely errand runners, where would any sentiment come from?"

Hearing Cao Wuji's words, Xuan Ji frowned.

The smiles on the faces of Wen Ya, Long Er, and Liu Yanran also faded.

"Elder Cao, you~"

Qi Tongtian frowned, just about to say something.

Wang Jianqiang suddenly spoke with a smile, "Senior, this Senior Cao is right; we are indeed just here to deliver the Pill, we are errand runners, and there is indeed no talk of sentiment."

"This toast, it must absolutely not be accepted."

Qi Tongtian looked hesitant, "But, little friend, you..."

Before Qi Tongtian could finish, Wang Jianqiang shook his head again, "Senior, this toast, it must not be accepted."

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongtian frowned and looked at Cao Wuji, his gaze flickering for a moment.

He looked at Wang Jianqiang with an apologetic face, "Apologies, little friend, Elder Cao has always had this temperament; I hope you will not take it to heart."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head with a chuckle, "Rest assured, Senior, how could we take such a small matter to heart?"

As he spoke, he cast a glance at Cao Wuji out of the corner of his eye without changing his expression.

Detecting the undisguised malice on Cao Wuji, he frowned imperceptibly.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's magnanimous words, Qi Tongtian nodded with a smile.

He sat back down in his seat.

Those heads of various sects who had already stood up looked at Cao Wuji without changing their expressions, and also sat back down in their seats.

Just at this moment.

Another figure walked in from outside the hall.

Seeing this figure, a faint smile appeared on Qi Tongtian's face, "Yuwei, why have you come so late?"
