Chapter 1357: 731: Divine Artisan Zhao Clan (Part 2) - Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Capítulo 1357: Chapter 731: Divine Artisan Zhao Clan (Part 2)

She was anxious in her heart, and suddenly stomped her foot, saying in a soft voice, “You can’t leave!”

“Presumptuous!” The store manager’s expression changed drastically upon seeing this and immediately stood up, scolding, “Hurry, make way! If you’re late, you’ll bring disaster upon yourselves.”

“It’s no bother.” Zhao Sheng waved his hand, looking at the young girl opposite with interest, suddenly asking, “Meeting is destiny. Do you have anything to tell me, you can say now.”

Kang Min’s mind went blank for a moment, not knowing what to say. She had acted impulsively just now, and now that she came to her senses, her face turned bright red, her gaze dodging.

Seeing this, the store manager sighed inwardly, quickly bowed to Zhao Sheng, whispered, “Ancestor Master, this girl is the daughter of the City Lord. Her ancestor happened to be a Returning to Void Ancestor Master who passed away a thousand years ago. This girl, young and ignorant, inadvertently offended you. I hope you won’t take it to heart, considering her ancestor’s contributions to the sect.”

Indeed, the character of the Green Dragon Pavilion store manager is truly loyal and righteous.

He actually dared to risk offending the sect’s Ancestor Master to plead for this girl. This act couldn’t help but make Zhao Sheng regard him with admiration.

Upon hearing the store manager’s words, Kang Min realized that she had caused a “big trouble.”

She felt a mix of alarm and fear, and, driven by a whim, blurted out, “I… I want to become your disciple.”

Zhao Sheng smiled, looked the girl up and down, and for some inexplicable reason, his Primordial Flood Dragon bloodline stirred slightly.

“Become a disciple?… No!”

Upon hearing this, Kang Min’s face turned ashen, her body swaying as if she was about to fall. The maid behind her was so frightened that she trembled like a sieve, not daring to make a sound.

“However… I’ve taken a liking to you. How about becoming my concubine?”

What!

The shift in topic was so abrupt and intense that Kang Min became stiff, her mind blank.

The Green Dragon Pavilion store manager was also incredibly shocked, not expecting…

However, he quickly reacted, and was immediately overjoyed, saying to Kang Min, “Silly girl, it’s your fortune of ten lifetimes to be chosen by the Ancestor. What are you standing there for? Hurry and go forward to salute.”

With his reminder, Kang Min regained her composure, shyly bowed to Zhao Sheng, saying, “Min’er, with the appearance of a willow, to receive husband’s favor, is the fortune of several lifetimes. However, marriage is a major life event, and I must inform my father in advance. Husband, could you accompany me to the City Lord Mansion?”

It must be said, Kang Min is a determined and supremely intelligent woman.

Faced with a major life event, she hesitated not a bit in agreeing.

Because she felt a chance to defy fate, vaguely realizing the extraordinary identity of the person opposite her, possibly being a prominent figure within the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect.

After all, the term “Ancestor” is extraordinarily significant!

Anyone bearing the title “Ancestor” has a cultivation level at least above Returning to Void, possibly even higher than Returning to Void…

Beyond that, even Kang Min herself dared not imagine.

“A very wise choice! I have always favored clever girls. Follow me.”

As he spoke, Zhao Sheng stepped forward, placing his hand on Kang Min’s shoulder.

In the next moment, the two of them disappeared from everyone’s view without a trace.

Zhao Sheng went to the City Lord Mansion and smoothly met Kang Min’s father and ancestors.

He had no need for lengthy explanations, merely revealing his cultivation of the Returning to Void Realm, which immediately excited Kang Min’s father and ancestors out of their minds.

Therefore, there was no refusal or decline, Kang Min’s close great-grandfather agreed outright, eagerly offering nine of the Kang Family’s direct-line daughters as maids.

But unfortunately, none of them caught Zhao Sheng’s eye, as his heartbeat quickened only for Kang Min.

…

Half a month later, Zhao Sheng escorted Kang Min through the Cross-Domain Transmission Array, teleporting to Yellow Wind Immortal City in the southwest of the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain.

Yellow Wind Immortal City is one of the nine Immortal Cities in the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain, covering an area close to ten thousand miles, with a city population of billions.

The scale of this city, undoubtedly, is the largest Zhao Sheng has seen in his eight incarnations.

Outside this incredible Immortal City, sixteen “satellite” cities are distributed, like stars escorting the moon, surrounding the main city.

Longshan City lies to the north of the Immortal City, with hundreds of feet high city walls soaring impressively like majestic mountains, stretching infinitely to either side, with no end in sight.

Above the city, floating various styles of vast Floating Island Land, each with stunning scenery, with areas ranging from hundreds of miles to over a thousand miles in size.

The Floating Island Lands are distributed from high to low, seemingly following a strict hierarchical order. The higher the islands, the larger their area, and the more grandiose and magnificent their aura.

In contrast, the lower the altitude, the smaller the area of the islands, and the more dim and gentle the array barrier that envelops them becomes.

Among these Floating Island Lands, there is one with the largest area, filled with palaces and towers of various styles. The scenery on the island is incomparably beautiful, not only topping Longshan City but also gaining some fame across the entire Immortal City.

This island is named Divine Art Island, which serves as the residence of the Zhao Family.

On this particular day, a cloud slowly descended from the horizon, soon stopping at the periphery of Divine Art Island.

Aboard the cloud were Zhao Sheng and Kang Min.

“Who goes there? Please immediately state your identity!”

Upon seeing the cloud halt, a figure swiftly flew out from inside the island, appearing before the cloud as a middle-aged man with greying hair.

This man was clad in golden armor, and his cultivation was around the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Zhao Sheng did not speak but simply retrieved an ancient bronze token from his sleeve and tossed it towards the man.

The middle-aged man caught the token and, upon examining it, was instantly shaken, displaying an expression of disbelief.

“This… this is actually the Ancestor’s personal token?!” the man exclaimed in shock.

He quickly composed himself, tightly gripping the token with his right hand, and respectfully bowed to Zhao Sheng, saying, “Junior Zhao Gaohuai greets the clan elder. Since you come bearing the Ancestor’s token, please follow me into the island swiftly.”

“Thank you, lead the way!” Zhao Sheng replied with a calm demeanor.

The middle-aged man hurriedly opened the array barrier, leading Zhao Sheng and Kang Min into the island.

Meanwhile, he rapidly issued seven or eight communication talismans, sending messages to the clan’s Divinity Transformation Ancestor.

Moments later, in a large, simple, yet elegant palace, Zhao Sheng was seated on a Jade Couch with Kang Min sitting closely behind him.

The middle-aged man urgently summoned a group of maids to continuously serve various Spirit Fruits and Spirit Foods, along with two pots of Thousand-year-old Spirit Tea.

It was just then that several tunneling lights suddenly descended outside the hall door, followed by three elderly men with white hair striding in.

Upon glancing at Zhao Sheng, he felt a bit disappointed. Despite the fact that all three had Divinity Transformation Realm strength, their potential was evidently gone, and each of them had scant Life Span remaining.

“Hmm?”

“Huh?”

“Ah!”

Their expressions varied greatly upon seeing Zhao Sheng’s face, exclaiming in questions or astonishment.

The oldest-looking elder with a long beard suddenly rushed ahead, kneeling with both knees before Zhao Sheng.

Simultaneously, he shouted loudly, “Junior Zhao Gaoping pays respect to the Ancestor! May the Ancestor enjoy eternal immortal blessings and ascend to immortality soon!”

Upon hearing this, the faces of the other two changed dramatically, and they hurriedly flew over, both kneeling to offer a grand kowtow ceremony:

“Junior Zhao Jinmin, pays respect…”

“Junior Zhao”
