Chapter 1497: Respectfully Welcoming the Adult

"Enough!"

After a long while, Xiong Ba, the Tower Master of the Five Aggregates Tower, slowly sighed, "Let him have his way; let him take as much as he wishes."

"But, Tower Master..." A disciple of the Five Aggregates Tower looked utterly shocked, though mostly filled with unwillingness.

That was their Five Aggregates Tower's Pill Workshop, filled with countless Spirit Pills and Elixirs, not to mention many precious medicinal ingredients of extremely high age; were they really just handing it all over?

"Do as he demands. We can do nothing to him for now, but soon, everything he has taken will ultimately be spat back out in its entirety."

"Yes!"

The attitudes of the Five Aggregates Tower and Fencheng Gate also struck the people of Jinghe City as strange, though understandable.

After all, even the Sect Master of Qinghong Sect had been killed off; who would dare offend this Hua Wuque!

Moreover, everyone clearly understood that the Three Sects were obviously biding their time, waiting until the adult from the faction behind them arrived, at which point everything would finally end.

A High-grade Immortal King, how immensely powerful, so terrifying!

Hua Wuque is in trouble!

For a moment, discussions erupted endlessly throughout Jinghe City.

Xu Que, however, paid no heed; after plundering for an entire day, he returned to the Inn with a full harvest.

Amidst the Innkeeper's increasingly pained smile, Xu Que directly switched to the largest room and lay down to rest peacefully.

Cultivating is impossible; isn't it better to sleep happily?

Everything exists within dreams!

The dignified and luxurious Jiang Hongyan held him in her embrace, feeding him wine.

The enchanting and charming Liu Jingning was massaging his calves.

The cool and indifferent Zixia Fairy, Shi Qingxuan, was massaging his little head.

And there were Su Ling'er, Su Yunlan, Lady Ya, Xuan Yuan Wanrong, and others...

He truly was a devoted man; even in his dreams, he would not leave out a single one.

"Xiao Rou, don't use so much strength, be gentler..."

In the midst of his beautiful dream, Xu Que reached out his hand, preparing to embrace Xiao Rou whom he hadn't seen in ages, but was suddenly awakened by the noisy sound of gongs and drums from outside the Inn.

"Damn it! What the hell is this, won't even let me sleep?" Xu Que climbed out of bed in anger and soared out of the Inn.

Outside, the sky had long since brightened completely; countless Cultivators on the Street were rushing toward the City Gate, as if some exciting major event was occurring.

The sounds of gongs and drums were a huge commotion created by the Three Sects; they all knew clearly that this was the Three Sects welcoming the arrival of that Great Ability.

Hua Wuque, who had been jumping around so lively yesterday, had vanished without a trace; everyone had assumed this fellow had fled overnight, yet they never expected he was actually sleeping inside the Inn, and now he had jumped straight out of it.

Good heavens, is he really going to be this stubborn?

A High-grade Immortal King has arrived, and he still isn't running?

Even if he isn't running, he should at least conceal his aura and hide first.

Appearing directly like this with his aura exposed, even if he wanted to run, it would likely be too late.

"I originally wanted to sleep a bit longer before getting up to take over the Three Sects, but since you welcome me so enthusiastically, banging gongs and beating drums to wake me up and continue, then I shall continue..."

Xu Que narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled, and swaggered directly toward the end of the Street.

The crowd was instantly startled.

Still coming?

The High-grade Immortal King is almost here, and you're still continuing?

And in this direction...

At the City Gate, Xiang Qing of Qinghong Sect had already brought people to guard the spot, waiting for that adult to arrive.

Who could have expected that suddenly a disciple rushed over to report that the damn Hua Wuque had actually charged into their Qinghong Sect headquarters and was directly plundering treasures.

"He... how dare he be so bold?" Xiang Qing's eyes bulged in disbelief, and he nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.

What to do about this wave? Qinghong Sect is about to be raided!

Why hasn't that adult arrived yet...

"Vice Sect Master Xiang!"

At this moment, Guan Liu Mang beside him smiled faintly, looking as if he was devising strategies from within a command tent, giving people a great sense of security.

He patted Xiang Qing on the shoulders and comforted him, "Such a trivial matter, why the urgency? Once Adult Yong Xing arrives, he is bound to die!"

"I..." Xiang Qing very much wanted to curse.

It's not your Fencheng Gate being robbed, so of course you aren't urgent.

However, under the current circumstances, he could only wait eagerly, unable to do anything.

Except for that adult, absolutely no one could stop Hua Wuque.

"Sect Master, it's bad news; after finishing plundering Qinghong Sect, Hua Wuque is charging toward our Fencheng Gate again." Suddenly, another disciple rushed over, kneeling directly before Guan Liu Mang, the Gate Master of Fencheng Gate, and said anxiously.

"What?" Guan Liu Mang's face instantly turned dark, and he cursed loudly, "Poem 'Grass'!"

Seeing this, Xiang Qing beside him immediately became delighted, nearly unable to suppress his laughter.

Didn't you say there was no need for urgency?

Look at your frantic and desperate appearance now; truly amusing.

However... these words Xiang Qing only dared to mutter silently in his heart, absolutely not daring to speak them aloud.

After all, at best he was merely a Great Luo Golden Immortal, whereas Guan Liu Mang was a genuine Low-tier Immortal King.

The strong are revered; the respect due must still be given!

On the other side, the Tower Master of the Five Aggregates Tower also began to feel uneasy.

Don't tell me Hua Wuque's next target is our Five Aggregates Tower?

When exactly will that esteemed adult finally...

"Boom!"

Suddenly!

An aura of majesty, akin to the dignity of Heaven and Earth, drifted over from afar!

The entire Jinghe City was shaken by this aura!

Some Cultivators who had not yet entered the Imperial Physician Immortal Realm could not even stand on their legs at this moment and knelt directly on the ground.

Guan Liu Mang and Xiang Qing, along with Xiong Ba, exchanged glances, their faces filled with ecstatic joy!

He has arrived!

That esteemed adult has finally arrived!

"Commence the ceremony!"

Guan Liu Mang immediately waved his large hand and shouted in a resonant voice.

"Clang!"

A crisp and loud sound of gongs being struck rang out.

Disciples of the Three Sects simultaneously raised the musical instruments in their hands and began to play music!

Inside and outside Jinghe City, a magnificent and imposing melody instantly resounded.

The melody was magnificent and imposing, echoing across the surrounding area.

Not far away, on the route from Fencheng Gate to the Five Aggregates Tower.

Xu Que also heard the commotion; he slowly turned his head and gazed toward the direction of the city gate.

"Has a High-grade Immortal King arrived? They certainly are making a grand entrance!"

A smile curled up at the corner of Xu Que's mouth.

I wonder who gave them the audacity to act so pretentiously in front of this Saintly Genius?

Wait until this Saintly Genius finishes my business, then I will deal with you!

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, Xu Que formed a hand seal and activated an Immortal Grade Divine Movement Escape Talisman, vanishing rapidly from his original spot and appearing directly outside the Five Aggregates Tower.

At the same time, outside the city gate of Jinghe City.

The magnificent and vast melody continued to echo in all directions.

In the mid-air, a giant Spirit Boat faintly appeared.

Standing at the bow was a man in green robes, his hands clasped behind his back; under the brush of a clear breeze, his robes fluttered, and a strand of silver-white hair before his forehead swayed gently.

Behind him were two youths, one holding a spear and the other embracing a sword.

"We respectfully welcome Adult Yong Xing!"

After the Spirit Boat appeared above the crowd, the people of the Three Sects shouted in unison, with utmost reverence.

This single shout was like thunder!

It caused the entire Jinghe City to tremble.

The man named Yong Xing led the two youths down from the Spirit Boat and cast a cold glance at Guan Liu Mang and the others.

"A single Great Luo Golden Immortal, and you lot cannot handle it? How can you serve my Heavenly Gate in the future?"

Hearing this reprimand, the three hurriedly knelt down!

"We acknowledge our crimes! Please, Adult, punish us."

"Waste!"

Yong Xing snorted coldly.

The sword-embracing youth behind him suddenly transformed into a wisp of green smoke and merged into that Longsword.

Seeing this, everyone could not help but inhale a sharp breath of cold air!

This! This is actually a Sword Spirit!

Could it be that the Longsword is an Immortal Artifact? Only an Immortal Artifact can truly manifest a Spirit!

And it is a Spirit capable of materializing a Flesh Body!

What grade of Immortal Artifact is this sword exactly!

Moreover! There is also a spear-wielding youth following behind Yong Xing!

Could this also be a Spirit!

Two Immortal Artifacts!

It seems this Adult's Status within the Heavenly Gate is certainly extraordinary.

"Sword, come!"

Yong Xing called out softly, and the Longsword behind him flew into his hand!

The moment he gripped the sword, an intent of sharp radiance drifted out from his person!

Even Guan Liu Mang and Xiong Ba, two Immortal Kings, felt pressure when facing this aura.

Moreover, this was merely an aura unintentionally revealed.

Even so, the two Immortal Kings had to exert effort to resist it.

If he were to draw his sword, he would likely kill both of them with a single One Sword strike.

As for the other Great Luo Immortals and Imperial Physician Immortals, they had long since knelt on the ground, not even daring to lift their heads.

Just as the Three Sects were seething with indignation, Xiong Ba suddenly received a Sound Transmission from a sect Disciple.

His expression changed instantly!

But realizing he was still kneeling before Yong Xing, he forcibly suppressed the fury in his heart and struggled to force a smile onto his face.

Yet this anomaly completely escaped none of Yong Xing's divine perception!

"What matter has caused such panic?" Yong Xing suddenly asked coldly.

Xiong Ba immediately broke out in a cold sweat; he had thought he had hidden it well, never expecting this lord to be so powerful.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

He immediately kowtowed three loud times in succession and said with a trembling voice, "Reporting to you, my lord, this worthless one is useless; that Hua Wuque, knowing full well you had already arrived in Jinghe City, still... burst into our Five Aggregates Tower's Treasury, injured dozens of our Disciples, and plundered our Five Aggregates Tower's Treasury until it was completely empty!"

"Heh, those who seek wealth but not their lives—This Seat has seen countless such people!"

Yong Xing couldn't help but let out a Cold Smile!

Gripping his Longsword, he swept straight toward the interior of the City!

At this moment!

Everyone trembled all over, holding their breath deeply.

They knew only one thing: Hua Wuque of the Heaven-Exploding Gang was likely finished!
