He Must Not Be Offended!

Suddenly, another movement was heard from the cave behind him, and a young lady who was also looking to be in her early twenties came out of it.

She had a beautiful appearance with a graceful and voluptuous figure, her long, wavy blond hair flowing down her ankles and her clear blue eyes shining like crystals.

However, at this moment, her brows were furrowed, a hint of anger flashing through her charming eyes.

"What? Angry at me for saving you? You also know that there was no other way. Had I not done anything, you would've already become a dried corpse." Zhu Dong said mockingly, without even looking at the girl.

"Hmph, the exact reason you're not dead yet is because you saved me from that aphrodisiac, be grateful for that. Otherwise, anybody who has ever dared to even look at me for more than 3 seconds did not live to see another day." She retorted, snorting coldly.

"As if. Anyways, are you also going to the Chengdu Region? If you don't mind, you can tag along with me." He said, changing the topic.

"You...forget it. I'm not in the mood to argue with you anymore. And yes, I'm going to Chengdu Region. I don't want any impending debts, so I'll protect you for 10 years before we separate our own paths." She replied.

"Alright then, it's a deal!" He nodded his head.

I'm already invincible beneath the Acquired Realm, and I'll become even stronger in the future. I don't really need much protection, but this woman is not so bad after all. Although dormant, she has a special Constitution suitable for dual-cultivation, she's also quite beautiful.

If I can make her mine, then in the future, there will be hope for surpassing the Immortal Sovereign Realm which I had been stuck at in my past life for countless years!

With these thoughts in his mind, Zhu Dong's face showed a sinister smile for a split second before he returned to normal.

...

Back at the Eastern Continent, Yan Immortal Dynasty.

Yan Zhangwei's face showed a hint of surprise, "Hm? The Eternal Peak? Why do you wish to go there?" He asked casually.

As the Emperor of the Yan Immortal Dynasty, he naturally knew about the Eternal Peak, a rising faction who's lord was quite young and talented.

"Father, the Master of Eternal Peak is very young and has already reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He can enter the Acquired Realm at any moment, you know that too, right? There is a high chance that he may surpass even the Innate Realm in the future, so it'd be best to get him on our side. This is why I wish to go there." She answered, not so truthfully at all.

If my speculations are correct and the timeline has not yet deviated from the last one, then that person is going to make an appearance very soon, sweeping through all the factions below the Innate Realm.

I have to take precautions beforehand and contact that senior!

She thought, her eyes showing determination, indicating that she wouldn't back down no matter what.

On the other hand, Yan Zhangwei's mind was already in a mess.

Why is my precious little daughter so hellbent on going to the Eternal Peak? Although I did hear that the Master of Eternal Peak was a young genius who was extremely good looking...to the point where many people said he was the most handsome person they had ever seen in their hundreds of years of life...

No, wait, my daughter is not like that! Yes, it should be because she just wants to get that fellow on our Yan Immortal Family's side! That must be it!

After gaslightling himself for a while, he finally spoke up, trying to remain as calm as possible, "Alright, you can go there after you stabilize your cultivation base. But remember, you can't go alone and have to take someone powerful with you there."

"Thank you, father!" Yan Jingfei exclaimed excitedly and smiled widely.

Even though she had already stabilized her cultivation base, she decided to stay for the time being.

...

3 Years Later.

Tian Yongheng had just finished stabilizing his cultivation base after breaking through to the Second Stage of Acquired Realm. Normally, it would've taken him some more time to breakthrough, but he used the entire bottle of Acquired Pills this time, quickening his pace.

He had already gotten the news about the recent events from Cui Ming through the Communication Jade. That was why he was in a hurry to cultivate and increase his strength to counterattack any given danger.

Right now, there were already more than 5 Qi Condensation Realm cultivators in the Eternal Peak. Quite a few disciples who were in the later levels of Acupoint Opening Stage had broken through. With the rich spirit qi of the Eternal Peak that was increasing continously, all of them were steadily improving.

But in Tian Yongheng's opinion, it was really not enough to resist the attack of a very powerful expert. Even if he could kill experts at the Ninth Stage of Acquired Realm, he was not so sure if the same applied to the Innate Realm.

At most, he would escape if an Innate Realm cultivator really attacked him right now. But, what about these Acupoint Opening Stage and Qi Condensation Realm disciples?

They would be akin to sheeps waiting to be slaughtered. He really could not bear to do this. These disciples had decided to put their trust in him, he could not let them down.

However, just as he was thinking about these things, he suddenly sensed two familiar presences.

He got up and flew out of his cave abode, quickly arriving outside of the Eternal Peak.

There, he saw Yan Jingfei and Yan Guo. Along with them were more than 10 cultivators at the Ninth Stage of Foundation Establishment, assigned to help them and guard them in unexpected situations.

Naturally, the pressure they exuded was very fierce and powerful. All the disciples of the Eternal Peak felt as if they were being crushed by a mountain.

But as soon as Tian Yongheng arrived in front of them, they all instinctively retracted their aura. His presence alone without any pressure was enough to overwhelm them.

They quickly cupped their fists at him respectfully. Even Yan Jingfei and Yan Guo were a little surprised by Tian Yongheng's presence.

This is...has he already broken through to the Acquired Realm!?

Yan Guo was a bit shocked, but he quickly regained his composure and they greeted eachother. Yan Jingfei on the other hand already knew that Tian Yongheng wasn't ordinary, so she didn't show much of a surprise.

Soon, he brought them inside the Eternal Peak. As expected, they were all stunned at the density of spirit qi in here.

This person...he mustn't be offended!

All of them thought, thinking that Tian Yongheng's background is really extraordinary.

"Fellow daoists, you all can choose any place to stay here temporarily." Tian Yongheng spoke calmly.

After that, all the cultivators aside from Yan Guo and Yan Jingfei quickly chose their own place to stay. This was an opportunity for them. The density of spirit qi in the Eternal Peak was on the same level as that of an Innate Realm faction's main branch.

Their cultivation could increase multiple times faster than originally here. They clearly didn't want to waste this opportunity.

Then, only Yan Guo, Yan Jingfei and Tian Yongheng were left in the air.

"Brother, I want to talk with senior privately." Yan Jingfei said, looking over at Yan Guo.

Yan Guo nodded slightly, and cupped his fists at Tian Yongheng before going to the place he chose to stay at.

He didn't have any questions or objections, as he had already grasped Tian Yongheng's good character when he first met him at the Sword Seeking Sect's banquet.

Even if he couldn't fully trust him, he still trusted his younger sister.
