Chapter 305

When the message from Mi Da Shengjun was sent, Gao Xiang Hong could imagine the expressions of the other group members—probably all reaching for their weapons.

As expected.

Western Demon Concubine: 【Shengjun, you're cheating by carving this great array, you know that.】

Jiuzhou Di Yi Xian Zun: 【If this continues, I feel that by the time the worlds connect, my weapon will be thirsty for blood.】

Da Huang Zun: 【I roughly understand why the group owner gave Shengjun admin rights—this temperament would get him kicked out by Feng Shi Tong in seconds; giving him admin is to prevent him from getting kicked out by the admins.】

Immortal King with Chronic Rheumatism: 【You dog! Your behavior is disgraceful, you're hacking—jojo歐拉歐拉. jpg】

Mi Da Shengjun: 【No, listen to me—I hadn't finished typing. I actually wanted to test whether this newly acquired Wealth Gathering Array works. If it does, I'll teach it to you all later. Isn't this me leading by example to test its effectiveness?】

After all, you all previously discussed the Dao with me and greatly helped me. I have nothing to repay you with except to test it myself.

This Wealth Gathering Array doesn't just gather wealth—it can also gather earthly spiritual energy and more, its applications are endless. It was created by a supreme being from an extremely ancient era in our world.

I just type slowly. I thought if I typed it all out at once, the Sword Immortal would've already sent out his red packets, and I wouldn't have time to test whether the Wealth Gathering Array could attract fortune, so I sent just the first part to stop him. Next time, I'll definitely send it all at once.】

Western Demon Concubine: 【That's more like it.】

Da Huang Zun: 【We misunderstood you.】

Jiuzhou Di Yi Xian Zun: 【I'll temporarily believe you this once.】

…

Then the Tian Xie Jian Xian sent out a red packet, and all group members scrambled to grab it.

After that, Gao Xiang Hong grabbed the red packet and received 100 Immortal Source Stones.

That's right—he grabbed the least again.

This wasn't because Kamikawa Mitsu intentionally set it that way; in fact, he never adjusted the red packet probability at all—it was entirely random. Gao Xiang Hong just had bad luck, grabbing the lowest amount twice in a row.

In response,

the group fell silent.

Da Huang Zun: 【Another 100? This… new comrade, please accept my condolences.】

Western Demon Concubine: 【It feels like the new guy can match the Sword Immortal.】

Mi Da Shengjun: 【New comrade, don't lose heart—maybe next time you'll grab the most! After all, luck doesn't run out three times. You can't keep getting the worst every time.】

Jiuzhou Di Yi Xian Zun: 【… Shengjun, aren't you afraid of jinxing him with that remark?】

Tian Xie Jian Xian: 【I didn't grab this red packet—it's not my fault.】

Facing Gao Xiang Hong's lowest grab, these otherworldly elders expressed sympathy.

Immortal Source Stones are extremely valuable cultivation resources, greatly aiding the cultivation of elders at their level, yet Gao Xiang Hong only got that little—poor guy.

Immediately after,

amid the group's comforting words, Gao Xiang Hong, after deep thought, exhaled and opened the chat bar to send his first message in the group.

Zu'an Intern: 【Hello, esteemed seniors.】

He had no intention of pretending to be one of them. First, he was pulled in by the group owner, and moreover, he was the younger brother of the deceased King—most likely the deceased King's brother had randomly dragged in a newbie for fun.

It wasn't impossible the deceased King's brother had pulled the wrong person.

But if he had pulled the wrong person, the deceased King's brother would certainly know Gao Xiang Hong's true identity—pretending here might fool the group members, but not the group owner.

After careful consideration, he decided to reveal his true identity.

Then he gritted his teeth, opened the QQ red packet, and sent out the 200 Immortal Source Stones he had received.

Whether he'd be kicked out or not—he left it to fate.

Life always holds opportunities, and right now, one great opportunity lay before him. Gao Xiang Hong didn't want to sit idle waiting for luck—he'd rather fight for it.

His message was sent.

The elders in the group froze for a moment.

Senior?

Is this comrade really this humble?

Mi Da Shengjun: 【Comrade, no need to be so polite—you don't even know our strength or age. What if you're stronger than us? What if you're older? Then it would be us who should respectfully call you Senior.】

The other group members quickly echoed this sentiment.

They felt Gao Xiang Hong was friendly—a humble, approachable comrade.

Why? It was obvious.

He immediately addressed everyone as seniors, and even sent out his only 200 Immortal Source Stones as a red packet—what else could this behavior be but kindness and humility?

But soon, their impression changed under Gao Xiang Hong's explanation—they suddenly understood.

This new group member was, in fact, an ordinary person.

After further conversation,

Tian Xie Jian Xian: 【Meeting is fate; gathering in this group is fate within fate. Since you're here and haven't been kicked out by the group owner, it means he has no intention of removing you—you can rest easy.】

Mi Da Shengjun: 【The Sword Immortal is right. Though our ranks differ greatly, sharing this strange group is fate. Don't be too restrained.】

Da Huang Zun: 【Interesting—someone new has entered. Is this going to bring some fresh energy to our old group?】

Western Demon Concubine: 【Perfect—my disciple is out on a journey and needs someone to chat with for fun. Comrade, don't fear us. Come chat here whenever you have time. If you have questions about cultivation, ask the seniors here—don't worry about troubling us. We've accepted your red packet; we've already formed a good karmic bond.】

Jiuzhou Di Yi Xian Zun: 【Ordinary people who obtain Immortal Source Stones always want to keep them for themselves. For us, these are valuable resources—but for ordinary people, they're a great opportunity. Yet you didn't keep them—you sent them out.】

I don't know what others think, but you suit my taste. Don't fear the seniors here—if you have questions, ask me.

By the way, which world or realm do you come from? Maybe you and I are from the same one.】

Before Gao Xiang Hong could reply,

Mi Da Shengjun: 【As a senior, I've accepted your Immortal Source Stones. Reciprocity is customary—I'll give you a gift too. It may not match Immortal Source Stones, but it will greatly aid you in entering the path of cultivation.】

After Mi Da Shengjun set the tone, the other seniors all gave gifts—all items useful to Gao Xiang Hong at his current stage.

In other words, Immortal Source Stones were a treasure yet to be unlocked; the gifts they gave were already opened treasures—equally valuable to Gao Xiang Hong.

Suddenly, Gao Xiang Hong's phone kept pinging with gift notifications.

Suppressing his inner excitement, Gao Xiang Hong first sent messages to respond to the senior members.

Zu'an intern: 【Thank you all, seniors. I am from the Origin Realm.】

The message was sent.

The big shots in the group all froze, their eyes filled with surprise.

The Origin Realm? Isn't that the world where the group owner is from!

……

In Russia, a corner of the Heian-kyō palace landed.

Several days later, more people gradually emerged alive from the palace.

Today, two more figures stepped out of the palace.

They were Kamikawa Mitsu and Kamikawa Sashiko.
