Chapter 739: 702

The voice suddenly vanished, and he just moved his lips. The look on Sun Liancheng’s face turned from shock to elation upon hearing his words.

After a few words, Jiao Xiuyuan took out a Small Tianxuan Mirror from his bosom.

Right after completing the transaction, he hurriedly left.

“Who would have thought there actually exists a person who’s willing to exchange a Unity-Path [Jade Tablet of Technique Presentation] for the first lease on the Heavenly Spirit True Flower…”

“It appears that our Sun Family is still somewhat lacking compared to the elites of the Immortal Alliance.” Sun Liancheng said with a hint of melancholy. “Our responsibilities are indeed heavy and the path ahead is long!”

Upon hearing his words, Sun Qi was stunned. “But wasn’t it supposed to be kept a secret?”

“What does the contract Jiao Xiuyuan signed have to do with me?” Sun Liancheng dismissed it without a care.

“However, this Master of Heavenly Spirit Flower is somewhat interesting. An Ancient Cultivator arising from the White Mist, asking me to help settle his membership identification with the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals…”

“Qi, what do you think?” After a moment of contemplation, Sun Liancheng looked to Sun Qi.

After considering for a moment, Sun Qi replied, “His intentions are incalculable. He might be a spy from the Five Elders Organization.”

Sun Liancheng burst into laughter, shaking his head. “Qi, you’re still too young. It took a great effort for the Master of Heavenly Spirit Flower just to meet Yan Fajue and seek a Unity-Path Technique suitable for him. If he were truly a spy, he wouldn’t waste this rare opportunity here.”

“On top of that, Yan Fajue is at the headquarters of the Immortal Alliance’s Law Enforcement Hall. With the [True Meaning of Transmitting Technique] in place, what kind of spy would dare to make trouble there? That would be simply be a death wish.”

Sun Qi remained silent.

How could he, a mere Golden Core Cultivator, know such secret matters? His uncle, Sun Liancheng, brought this up merely as a reminder: no matter if Sun Qi manages to break through to the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm, compared to the whole Sun Family, he is still insignificant. He must behave, practice the “Reversal Qiankun Record”, shoulder the bottleneck of the family and not harbor any divergent thoughts.

“Hmph.”

Hiding the fleeting dangerous thought deep within his heart, Sun Qi dared not show the slightest change in his expression.

Sun Liancheng seemed quite satisfied with his performance and allowed him to stay in the city lord’s manor from then onwards.

Seven days later, Sun Qi met the extremely mysterious Master of Heavenly Spirit Flower, Xu Bai, at the manor.

Even with his self-proclaimed indomitable fortitude, he was momentarily startled upon seeing this man. Only then did he realize that Jiao Xiuyuan’s descriptions of the “Master of Heavenly Spirit Flower being exceptionally suave, a sight rarely seen” was not an exaggeration.

Xu Bai came for his Immortal Alliance identity.

This was simply a trifling matter for Sun Liancheng, who held authority over a large region.

In less than half a day, he bypassed various audits and completed Xu Bai’s Alliance affiliation.

After Xu Bai had completed the verification of his identity on-site using the Small Tianxuan Mirror, he nodded in satisfaction.

He lavishly praised Sun Liancheng for his overwhelming power, and after retracting his folding fan, he left elegantly.

Sun Qi’s gaze followed the man’s retreating silhouette until it disappeared.

“He indeed possesses a trace of the Heavenly Dao’s favor…”

“But alas, he has strayed from the path.” Sun Liancheng coldly scoffed as he made his appraisal.

Sun Qi, upon hearing his words, was taken aback. He was trying to figure out what mistake he had committed recently to anger his uncle.

It wasn’t until a moment later that Sun Qi realized that his uncle was not talking about him.

Rather, he was talking about Xu Bai, who had just left.

“Gone astray? Uncle, what do you mean?” Sun Qi asked, puzzled.

“Those favored by the Heavens in the Ancient Xian Realm were probably highly sought after by various sects, natural born cultivators.”

“But now…” Sun Liancheng’s eyes flashed with a glint of disdain.

“The Tianzun New Method is, in reality, defying the Heavens. The more blessings they receive from Heaven and Earth, the more difficulty they will encounter when defying the Principle of Heaven and Earth in the future.”

“Even when offering sacrifices to the Essence of Heaven and Earth, they would face a multiplied backlash from the Will of Heaven and Earth. Regardless of how gifted they may be, most of them can only strive to reach God Transformation.”

“Take your accompanying oddity, the [Singular Cosmic Qi], for example; a half Heaven’s Oddities, but still blessed with Heaven and Earth’s fortune. In your cultivation, have you ever felt malice from Heaven and Earth? As your cultivation improves, this malice will become increasingly obvious.”

“Technically, Heaven and Earth bestowed ample love upon you. Yet you persist in practicing the New Method, turning against them.”

“Not harboring hatred towards you people would have been strange.”

Ignoring the mild mockery from his uncle Sun Liancheng, Sun Qi slowly nodded, falling into deep thought.

Be it him, or Sun Liancheng who was in the Realm of Unification,

Neither of them noticed that their entire conversation had been spied upon from beginning to end.

Li Fan, who was watching Sun Qi through a Formless Killing Machine, had observed everything without missing a word.
