Chapter 2438: Lici Arrives at the Dao Palace! The Saintess Signs the Contract
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
...Just as the Wang family’s "international trade" was flourishing, on the other hand, Wang Licui, who followed her Master to the Primordial Taoist Palace, was finally nearing the end of her long journey.
On the deck atop the Heavenly Saint Cloud Boat, Wang Licui was sitting in front of her beloved BBQ grill, happily grilling the leg of a Void Floating Dragon that her Master had captured for her while passing through the void last month.
As the dragon leg gradually cooked, a strong aroma began to fill the deck.
Si Wuchou and the Trashy Rat crouched on either side of Wang Licui, skillfully and diligently controlling the heat for her, their eyes fixed on the gigantic dragon leg on the grill, practically drooling with anticipation.
After following Wang Licui for some time, Si Wuchou no longer felt the initial reluctance.
There was no other way; following Wang Licui, the food alone was undoubtedly an enjoyment. Whenever Wang Licui acquired something good, he would always manage to snag a little, which, although not much, was of high quality.
Back at the Si Family, he never had such treatment.
Not to mention whether the elders of the Si Family would indulge their disciples without boundaries like the Sacred Supreme of the Sea of Clouds, feeding them all sorts of precious Spirit Food ingredients, even if the Si Family obtained any precious Spirit Food ingredients, it would certainly be prioritized for the family’s Sacred Seed, and he, a True Immortal Seed, would have to wait.
Moreover, Wang Licui always took good care of those she genuinely recognized. She carried an aura that turned misfortune into fortune, so Si Wuchou, following her, never encountered danger and often benefited without much effort.
Over time, he actually began to enjoy this simple, straightforward, carefree life.
In retrospect, his name, Si Wuchou, truly was not mistakenly given. Being Licui’s follower, there was nothing to worry about.
In a moment of distraction, Si Wuchou thought of his cousin, Si Wuyou, also a True Immortal Seed, who seemed to have been traveling for a long time, and the family was searching for him.
He hoped his cousin, like himself, could also turn misfortune into fortune and remain carefree.
Soon, the Void Floating Dragon leg was ready. Si Wuchou immediately put the matter of his cousin out of his mind, eagerly watching as Licui divided the meat.
Wang Licui separated the whole leg into several pieces, casually handing a piece to Si Wuchou and the Trashy Rat before grabbing one herself and digging in heartily.
Just as they were eating, Lan Wanyi came running over excitedly: "We’ve arrived, we’ve arrived~ I just asked the Senior Brother piloting the boat. After passing this floating cloud mountain, the East Sky Gate of the Heavenly Abode where the Primordial Taoist Palace is located will be in front of us."
Saying this, Lan Wanyi plopped down beside the Trashy Rat, and Wang Licui handed her a piece of leg meat, her face also full of joy.
"Finally here~"
Although she had passed by many Immortal Dynasties on this journey and occasionally disembarked to explore in a few Sacred Dynasties, most of the time was spent on the Heavenly Saint Cloud Boat, which, over time, inevitably became somewhat monotonous.
Before setting off, she truly hadn’t anticipated that the Primordial Taoist Palace was so far, almost surprisingly distant.
Luckily, they were finally about to arrive.
Sure enough, before they could finish gnawing on the leg meat, the Heavenly Saint Cloud Boat, which had been swiftly traversing the Tempest Layer high in the sky, began to slowly decelerate.
In the sky ahead.
A space gate seemed to sense the approach of the Heavenly Saint Cloud Boat, appearing out of thin air.
It was a massive jade-white gateway.
It appeared as if an illusion in the sky, intermittently visible, and one could vaguely make out the intricate, exquisite patterns on the thick pillars.
Golden Spirit light flowed between the patterns, and the central part of the gateway radiated a faint halo, emitting waves of space ripples akin to water waves.
The Heavenly Saint Cloud Boat passed through the gateway, immediately entering another space.
"Wow~! This is the Primordial Taoist Palace..."
Wang Licui and the others widened their eyes in amazement.
What appeared before them was a place full of immortal aura, akin to a terrestrial paradise.
The entire Heavenly Abode world was dotted with floating immortal islands of varying heights, scattered yet ordered.
Though the distance obscured the view, it was clear that each of these islands was sizeable, each akin to a massive, genuine island.
Some of the floating immortal islands were connected by long corridors or bridges, appearing like a continental mass from afar.
Others stood independently, forming self-contained entities.
Without exception, each island was vibrant with immortal charm, shrouded in mist, with Immortal Beasts wandering and Spirit Flowers and exotic herbs abundant.
On most of the floating immortal islands stood exquisite and splendid palaces, breathtakingly beautiful from afar, like the abodes of Immortals.
If there truly were an Immortal Realm in this world, it would probably be like this.
"Isn’t this just like the Heavenly Court in Journey to the West?" Wang Licui exclaimed, eyes wide, almost blurting out. She remembered hearing her Fourth Uncle and Yao Yao, An’an tell Journey to the West when she was nearby.
This Primordial Taoist Palace seemed to her quite similar to the Heavenly Court described by her Fourth Uncle, causing a sudden sense of dislocation. Could it be that her Fourth Uncle had actually visited the Primordial Taoist Palace?
...
At the same time.
In the Tianrui Saint Dynasty.
Lately, there have been a series of conflicts and frictions between the Tianrui Saint Dynasty and the already not very harmonious Tianxing Sacred Dynasty, with the tension seemingly escalating.
The reason is quite simple.
The Tianrui Immortal Clan Jiang and the Tianrui Shen Family, both on the verge of decline, made a transaction. They used the key to a secret Little Heavenly Abode as a price, entrusting the Si Family to take care of the Jiang family in the future. The resources of a Little Heavenly Abode are quite tempting to the Sacred Si Family, with access to Immortal Scripture, Immortal Artifacts, and even a range of Codex resources.
