Chapter 1940: Chapter 1940
Moreover, being able to do some exchanges with other Nascent Soul Stage cultivators before the "Tianyi Grand Assembly" is certainly a better thing, as it means he’ll face fewer competitors.
Soon after, the Rainbow Light Flying Vessel officially entered the borders of the Great Zhou Kingdom, then, under the orders of Nangong Wuqing, headed straight to the Xiandu Marketplace controlled by the Huangfu Family of the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom.
When the Rainbow Light Flying Vessel stopped outside Xiandu Marketplace, a fiery red escape light suddenly flew out from within the marketplace, arriving directly near the flying vessel, revealing a middle-aged man with a formidable appearance.
This middle-aged man wore a Dragon Robe, carried an aura of authority, and had a mid Nascent Soul stage cultivation level.
As soon as he stopped his escape light outside the flying vessel, he laughed loudly and said, "Since Taoist Friend Nangong has arrived, why not show yourself for a meeting? Or are you unable to extricate yourself from the arms of a beauty?"
From this teasing tone, it was easy to tell that this middle-aged man and Nangong Wuqing had an unusual friendship.
And as his words fell, Nangong Wuqing indeed quickly appeared on the deck of the Rainbow Light Flying Vessel alongside Zhou Chun.
Then, with a smile on his face, he laughed towards the middle-aged man and said, "Hahaha, it’s been over seventy years since we last met, I hope Huangfu Brother has been well."
"Oh, this Taoist Friend beside Nangong looks unfamiliar, could you tell me who he is?"
The middle-aged man did not respond to Nangong Wuqing’s words, but instead focused his gaze on Zhou Chun beside him, asking with a face full of surprise about Zhou Chun’s origins.
He was very aware of Nangong Wuqing’s pride.
Generally, unless a cultivator gained his recognition, they wouldn’t be invited onto his Blissful Boat.
Yet Zhou Chun not only appeared unfamiliar to him, but also had only a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivation level, how did he earn such a privilege?
"Since Huangfu Brother lives in seclusion within the Great Zhou Kingdom, not knowing Taoist Friend Zhou is understandable. Let me introduce the two Taoist Friends."
Nangong Wuqing spoke, first pointing to the middle-aged man and introducing him to Zhou Chun, "This is Supreme Elder Huangfu Tianming of the Huangfu Family, honored as the Six-Burn Bright King. Huangfu Brother and I have been friends for hundreds of years, truly bosom friends, and each time I arrive in the Great Zhou Kingdom, I come to reminisce with him."
Then he introduced Zhou Chun to Huangfu Tianming, "As for Taoist Friend Zhou, Huangfu Brother should have heard of his reputation, he is the Chunjun True Person of Jingguo Country, Zhou Zhengchun, a Taoist Friend I met midway, and we’ve had delightful conversations along the way."
After hearing his introduction, Zhou Chun first cupped his hands in salute to Huangfu Tianming and said, "Zhou Mou meets Taoist Friend Huangfu."
And Huangfu Tianming, having indeed heard of his reputation, did not dare to be negligent once introduced by Nangong Wuqing, returning the salute and saying, "So it is Taoist Friend Chunjun in person, my apologies!"
As he spoke, he looked at Zhou Chun with a feeling of deep admiration and said, "The famous Chunjun True Person’s reputation has reached my ears even from my seclusion in the Great Zhou Kingdom. Every time I hear of Taoist Friend’s deeds, I am full of admiration. It is a pleasure to finally meet Taoist Friend in person today, fulfilling a long-held wish."
Upon hearing his words, Zhou Chun quickly replied politely, "Taoist Friend Huangfu is too kind, I, Zhou Mou, being of a younger generation, do not dare accept such praise!"
At this time, Nangong Wuqing also shook his head and said, "If Huangfu Brother is interested in Taoist Friend Zhou, there will be plenty of time to converse. For now, let’s first arrange accommodations for us."
"Taoist Friend Nangong speaks rightly, so the two Taoist Friends will now follow me into the marketplace for a chat." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ Nove1Fire.net
Huangfu Tianming nodded repeatedly and immediately led the Blissful Boat into the depths of Xiandu Marketplace.
With the personal arrangements by Huangfu Tianming, the highest cultivator in the Huangfu Family, Zhao Chun and Nangong Wuqing were quickly settled in a superior cave dwelling at the core of the spirit vein in Xiandu Marketplace.
They could reside here until the end of the "Tianyi Grand Assembly."
Originally, within the cave dwelling, many female cultivators from the Huangfu Family were arranged to serve as maidservants, but as Zhou Chun disliked having others in his residence, he dismissed them all.
After resting in the cave dwelling for two days, Zhou Chun was invited by Huangfu Tianming to attend a banquet held in his cave dwelling.
This banquet was attended by only three Nascent Soul stage cultivators: Huangfu Tianming, Nangong Wuqing, and Zhou Chun, accompanied by some Golden Core Stage cultivators from the Huangfu Family.
When talking privately among the three, Nangong Wuqing did not avoid Zhou Chun’s presence, directly asking Huangfu Tianming about whether the Tianyi Venerable would attend the "Tianyi Grand Assembly."
On this matter, Huangfu Tianming dared not confirm, only saying there were indeed related rumors circulating.
Even so, this was enough to verify the truth of Nangong Wuqing’s previous statements.
Subsequently, the three exchanged views on the path of cultivation, and from Huangfu Tianming’s words, learned that he was indeed organizing a small-scale Nascent Soul Stage cultivator exchange gathering. Once the timing was confirmed, invites would be sent out.
After the banquet ended, seeing several Golden Elixir Female Cultivators from the Huangfu Family returning with Nangong Wuqing to his cave dwelling, Zhou Chun suddenly understood why Nangong Wuqing and Huangfu Tianming could call each other brothers.
It was because the two shared similar tastes and both enjoyed the path of pleasure.
Moreover, based on what Zhou Chun had learned from previous conversations with Nangong Wuqing, it seemed that Nangong Wuqing was well-versed in the Dual Cultivation Way, with many of his consorts and maidservants advancing their cultivation levels through dual cultivation with him.
