"Aren't you, my lord?" A shadow appeared beside the Azure Emperor.
The Azure Emperor smiled as he took the crystal ball from Little Black's hands. He examined it closely, his expression shifting continuously. Coldly, he remarked, "So it's the White Emperor's Clone Technique! And Ghost Path as well! Just how much fortune has this kid obtained? Good! Very good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and the crystal ball shattered into powder, scattering through the Azure Emperor's fingers and drifting away with the wind until it turned to dust.
"My lord, should we take action?"
"No need; the time isn't right yet." The Azure Emperor rubbed the powder between his fingers, a sinister smile creeping across his lips.
In just one month, nine Li Xiaonan had completely drained the Celestial Aura in the Meditation Room three times. Even the source of Celestial Aura—the Spiritual Vein—was beginning to struggle under the strain.
"Merge!" With a light command from one of them, the nine Li Xiaonan simultaneously ceased their efforts, their ethereal forms overlapping and merging into one.
Inside their Dantian, three types of True Essence filled the space: True Essence Power, Ghost Energy, and Magic Essence.
These three types of True Essence were not friendly; upon sensing that they were not from their own group, they immediately began to clash.
Li Xiaonan quickly activated the Spirit Tree. Green Mental Power surged out from the Spirit Platform and flew into his Dantian.
The three types of True Essence that had been restless suddenly froze upon encountering the Mental Power, as if brainwashed. They began to harmonize and gradually merge together.
Li Xiaonan spent an entire month merging the three types of True Essence within him, transforming them into Golden Yuan Power.
However, a crack appeared on the golden core within his Yuan Ying in the Dantian.
He was taken aback and thought to himself: Is it about to be Yuan Ying again?
Li Xiaonan glanced at the time; two months had passed, and he estimated that Zhao Hai should be arriving soon.
He stood up, stretched lazily, and moved his limbs, feeling refreshed and invigorated.
Pushing open the jade-white door with one hand, he intended to practice the Eighteen Palms of Subduing Demons in the round hall to loosen up. However, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a stunning woman leaning against the door, seemingly asleep.
A faint smile crept onto his lips as he slowly bent down, catching a whiff of the light scent of alcohol on Fisher's Song.
He shook his head helplessly; this girl was a drunk! Letting her guard for me while she indulges in her own merriment.
He glanced at the stairs around the corner and smiled as he draped a blanket over Fisher's Song.
With his left arm around her shoulder and his right hand slipping under her tail, he lifted her effortlessly. However, he exerted too much force and nearly lost his balance.
How can she be so light? Does she not eat at all?
Muttering to himself, he carried her back to the Meditation Room and carefully laid her down on the bed.
He gazed at her breathtaking beauty, faintly hearing the rhythm of his own heartbeat in his chest.
Swallowing hard, he silently warned himself.
Li Xiaonan, you must hold yourself together; do not let your heart waver. Look at this woman; she has no curves, you can't even tell if she's male or female! Aside from… being somewhat good-looking, she has nothing else going for her.
Taking a deep breath, he planned to turn around and find Azure Emperor; the show must go on!
"My lord..."
A soft murmur escaped her lips as a cool, delicate hand grasped Li Xiaonan's slender fingers.
He turned around in a daze, a pair of bright blue eyes looking at him with a pitiful expression.
"You... you’re awake?" After a long silence, Li Xiaonan could only manage to utter a useless remark, while the cherry blossom pink had already crept up his cheeks.
"The moment you emerged from your retreat, I woke up... Master, can Fisher's Song play a game with you?"
"Ah? What game?"
Fisher's Song smiled sweetly and leaped into Li Xiaonan's arms, effortlessly pulling him onto the bed.
Li Xiaonan rolled his eyes internally, thinking: I'm going to be pushed down by another girl... Why is it that all of them have such strong personalities?
Wait? Why did I say 'again'?
Realizing that Fisher's Song had stopped moving in his embrace, Li Xiaonan finally came to the realization that sleeping together was indeed a game...
One he had invented himself.
He gently patted Fisher's Song on the shoulder and asked, "Do you like this game?"
"Mm! Fisher's Song likes it! Master is so warm; playing games with you is much more enjoyable than drinking!" Fisher's Song squinted her eyes in delight, rubbing against Li Xiaonan as if trying to bury her face in his chest.
Li Xiaonan's face turned slightly red. Just as he was about to say something, a flash of green appeared at the door.
"Hahaha! Looks like I came at the wrong time!" The sudden arrival of Azure Emperor shattered the intimate atmosphere.
"Big... Brother!" Li Xiaonan quickly sat up, gently pushing Fisher's Song aside as he stood up, stammering.
Fisher's Song stole a glance at the Azure Emperor, puffing her cheeks in displeasure, resembling a fish. However, with her stunning beauty, it only made her look more adorable.
"Brother, you are so diligent! I feel like I am falling behind as the older brother! I've been back and forth several times over the past two months!"
Li Xiaonan looked surprised and said, "What does Big Brother need me for? I would go through fire and water for you!"
The Azure Emperor raised an eyebrow, clearly enjoying Li Xiaonan's exaggerated performance.
"A few distinguished guests have come to see you, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to introduce you!"
"See me?" Li Xiaonan scratched his head, thinking: Zhao Hai arrived early? He can't really be considered a distinguished guest!
"Yes! I can't keep them waiting any longer! Let's go!" The Azure Emperor said as he grabbed Li Xiaonan's wrist and vanished in a flash.
"Master..." Only Fisher's Song remained in the empty Meditation Room.
With a hint of sadness on her face, she hugged her fish tail, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Why did she feel so lost? It was so painful... so cold...
She tightly clutched the blanket in front of her, wrapping herself up, but still felt no warmth.
Suddenly, Fisher's Song's expression changed as she coldly remarked, "So useless! All you do is cry!"
A shadow flickered past, leaving behind an empty blanket and a desolate Meditation Room.
Li Xiaonan felt a blur before his eyes, the scent of grass and earth filling his nostrils.
When he focused again, he found himself standing on a lush green lawn, dotted with dewdrops that dampened the tender stems and leaves.
He slowly raised his head, facing west, where a lush bamboo forest painted dappled ink strokes under the gentle caress of the sunlight.
A cool breeze swept through, alleviating some of the heat. Along with the scents of fresh grass and flowers, there was a subtle fragrance of tea in the air.
Li Xiaonan turned to look back; to the east lay a sheer cliff, and in the distance, the ethereal mountains came into view, with a white Pavilion quietly nestled there.
The tea aroma wafted from this Pavilion.
The Azure Emperor pulled Li Xiaonan toward the Pavilion, his face adorned with a false smile.
“Thank you all for waiting. This is my newly recognized brother, Xiao Nan! Come and greet the two esteemed lords, the Yellow Emperor and the Crimson Emperor.”
Li Xiaonan's gaze followed the Azure Emperor's gesture to the two men. Just by their attire, Li Xiaonan couldn't help but want to scoff.
Flower Rubbing! One dressed in bright yellow and the other in deep red; it was obvious who was who!
Could they be any less creative?
It was indeed strange; after ascending to the celestial realm for two months, he had already met all four of the big shots here.
But what was this Azure Emperor really thinking? With three of the Four Emperors present, did they intend to dismantle him and then collectively comprehend the Harmony Technique?
Was the allure of the Harmony Technique truly that great?
Then who was it that killed the Mother of the Mountain and imprisoned the Father-in-law?
Or did these three have a hand in it as well?
His head was spinning!
Although Li Xiaonan felt immense distress inside, he maintained a demeanor of utmost respect on the surface.
He lowered his head, squinting slightly, with both hands clasped in a fist, bowing as he greeted, "Li Xiaonan pays his respects to the two Immortal Emperors."
The Yellow Emperor smiled gently and extended his hand, lightly gesturing as if to lift something from the void. "There is no need for such formalities, young brother."
A wave of gentle power lifted Li Xiaonan up. As he adjusted his emotions and raised his head, he finally got a clear look at the Yellow Emperor's appearance.
With a face as smooth as jade, appearing to be around thirty years old, he wore a purple-gold crown adorned with jewels and a yellow satin robe embroidered with a golden dragon soaring through the clouds.
Such an opulent attire only accentuated his nobility, devoid of any mundane aura.
Opposite the Yellow Emperor sat the Crimson Emperor, a burly bald man with a fierce expression and a beard that fluttered in the wind. He coldly asked, "Are you Li Xiaonan?"
Li Xiaonan slowly nodded, though in his heart he thought: Are you Lu Zhishen or Sha Monk?
"Little Hong is rambling again! Such fine tea and you didn't invite me to drink it; how wicked of you!" A distant ethereal voice floated in from the east.
Li Xiaonan furrowed his brow slightly as he guessed the owner of the voice—White Emperor Soulmate.
"Oh! It's Lord White Emperor! What brings you here?" Azure Emperor smiled, though his eyes were filled with a venomous coldness.
"Naturally, I'm here for the Immortal Realm Rookie Tournament. How could I miss such an event that happens only once every thirty years?" The White Emperor seemed completely oblivious to Azure Emperor's displeasure as he boldly sat down next to the Yellow Emperor.
"I believe this year's Rookie Tournament will undoubtedly be won by Li Xiaodao You, right? We just need to discuss what each of us will put forth as stakes," the Yellow Emperor said with a slight smile, taking a sip of tea.
"I'll offer this!" The White Emperor stretched out his hand, revealing a translucent blue orb that appeared in his palm.
Although Li Xiaonan had no idea what this orb was, he could infer from the astonished expressions of the others that it was undoubtedly something valuable.
The Emperor shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Brother Bai, you bring out such good things just to make us uncomfortable, don't you? Sigh, fine, I'll put out a bottle of White Deer Elixir."
"Haha! Huang Yan is also putting in some serious effort, so I'll bring out a Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact!" The Crimson Emperor sniffed and grinned widely, his smile quite frightening.
"Sigh... you all are just bullying me for being poor! How about this, I'll take out the Original Wood Initial Chapter! For newly ascended immortals, this is the most precious thing, right?" The Azure Emperor said with a smug smile.
"You want to recruit the winner as your disciple, don't you? Azure Emperor, you haven't changed at all; you're still quite cunning!" The White Emperor raised an eyebrow and mocked.
The Azure Emperor rolled his eyes, completely unfazed.
Next, the Four Emperors began discussing the specifics of the Rookie Tournament in the Immortal Realm scheduled for a month later. Li Xiaonan couldn't get a word in edgewise; the reason was simple—he hadn't heard a single word of what they were saying, including the value of the prizes they had just mentioned.
While he was lost in thought, the Azure Emperor suddenly slapped him on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, these esteemed gentlemen have raised the stakes so high just for you. Show us some real skills! If you don't take first place in this year's Rookie Tournament, it would be too disappointing for us!"
Li Xiaonan was taken aback. "Huh? But I don't want to participate..."
I'm very low-key; I just want to focus on my cultivation and then deal with you all...
