Just as Ye Qing was about to go to the Highest Profound Purity Palace to challenge Old Taoist Xuanji, an uninvited guest arrived at the Levitation Heavenly Palace.
Ye Qing was cultivating in the Levitation Heavenly Palace when he sensed a familiar aura approaching the Levitation Heavenly Palace.
He scanned the area with his Divine Thought and found out that it was Nezha from the Heavenly Court.
Ye Qing had become sworn brothers with Nezha in the Dragon World, so he was little Nezha's elder brother.
However, Nezha's identity was extraordinary. What was he doing in the Levitation Heavenly Palace?
Nezha's arrival alerted the leader of the Levitation Heavenly Palace, Old Taoist Hunyuan, Nangong Hongchen, and many other elders.
They all sensed Nezha's arrival and came out to greet him.
Nezha's cultivation was not yet at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, so he was not as strong as the leader of the Levitation Heavenly Palace. In fact, some of the elders were stronger than him.
However, Nezha's identity was extraordinary. He was a Divine General of the Heavenly Court, and a high-ranking one at that. He was heavily nurtured by the Heavenly Court.
Nezha's arrival naturally attracted the attention of the higher-ups of the Levitation Heavenly Palace. Even the leader of the Levitation Heavenly Palace, Old Taoist Hunyuan, came out to greet him personally.
In the reception hall of the Levitation Heavenly Palace, a banquet was set up to entertain Nezha. The higher-ups of the Levitation Heavenly Palace were very polite to him.
Nezha enjoyed all kinds of delicious food in the hall. He had no resistance to good food. After eating and drinking, he shook his head and sighed. "The chefs of the Levitation Heavenly Palace are not bad, but compared to my boss, they are on a completely different level!"
Nezha missed the stir-fried dragon tendons and braised dragon claws he had in the Dragon World. Those were the best delicacies, and they were all made by Ye Qing.
"Oh?
Little Brother Nezha, so your boss is a great chef!
Such a person must be a dragon among men. If there's a chance, I must befriend him! "Old Taoist Hunyuan said with a smile.
"By the way, Little Brother Nezha, why have you come to the Levitation Heavenly Palace?" Nangong Hongchen asked.
Nezha grabbed a handful of spirit fruits and tossed them into his mouth. He smiled. "My boss is in your Levitation Heavenly Palace. I came to the Levitation Heavenly Palace to find him!"
Primordial Chaos's heart stirred as he hurriedly inquired about the boss Nezha was looking for. Just as Primordial Chaos spoke, a white-robed, black-haired youth with sword-like brows and starry eyes swaggered in from outside the guest hall.
"Little brother, why did you come to our Ascension Heavenly Palace instead of staying in the Heavenly Court?"
The person who walked into the reception hall was Ye Qing. Everyone was stunned. From Ye Qing's tone, it seemed like the boss that Nezha was looking for was him!
"This …"
The shock in Primordial Chaos's heart could not be expressed in words. Nezha had a noble status and was one of the top existences among the Divine Generals of the Heavenly Court. Ye Qing had befriended him and even became his elder brother. It was simply unbelievable.
"Big Brother, your chef's cooking skills are not good enough!
Didn't you say that after joining the Army of Cheats, you can enjoy all kinds of delicious food? "Nezha mumbled softly.
Ye Qing rolled his eyes. "The chef of the Levitation Heavenly Palace is not the chef of the Army of Cheats. Speaking of which, why are you looking for me?
Don't tell me it's just for food? "
Nezha smiled awkwardly and winked at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing understood and cupped his fists at the higher-ups of the Levitation Heavenly Palace in the reception hall. He smiled and said, "Seniors, I haven't seen my little brother Nezha in a long time. We have some things to talk about."
Primordial Chaos nodded. "Haha, you two brothers haven't seen each other in a long time. You must have a lot to talk about. We won't disturb you."
Primordial Chaos waved his hand and walked out of the reception hall first. The other elders and vice-palace masters followed him out of the hall one after another.
Soon, only Ye Qing and Nezha were left in the hall.
"Little Nezha, why are you being so mysterious? Why are you looking for me?" Ye Qing said thoughtfully.
According to his guess, something must have happened in the Heavenly Court. Otherwise, Nezha would not have made a special trip here.
"Boss, ever since the battle in the Dragon World, I've been worried about your safety. After returning to the Heavenly Court, I sent people to find out about you. I was relieved when I heard that you returned safely to the Levitation Heavenly Palace!
Speaking of which, you were able to escape from the Holy Dragon Emperor. You're amazing! "
Nezha said as he gave a thumbs up. He had to admit that the Holy Dragon Emperor was very powerful.
To be able to fight against the Holy Dragon Emperor meant that one had heaven-defying strength. Not many people in the Heavenly Court could do that.
"Speaking of which, little Nezha, why are you looking for me?" Ye Qing asked.
Nezha had a mysterious look on his face. He then grinned. "Our Heavenly Court is holding a test to recruit new Divine Generals. With your strength, you can come to the Heavenly Court to try. Who knows, you might become a Divine General in the Heavenly Court in the future. You can work with me!"
Stars appeared in Nezha's eyes. He was looking forward to Ye Qing's arrival. If Ye Qing became a Divine General in the Heavenly Court, Nezha would be able to play with Ye Qing often.
More importantly, he would be able to enjoy Ye Qing's various delicacies. Just thinking about it made him happy.
As a high level Divine General, Nezha could not leave the Heavenly Court as he pleased. Last time, he went to the Dragon World to carry out a mission. This time, he snuck out of the Levitation Heavenly Palace.
He could not stay in other places for long. He had to stay in the Heavenly Court. That was his duty as a Divine General.
However, if Ye Qing became a Divine General, Nezha would be able to meet with Ye Qing often.
Ye Qing smiled slightly. As soon as he saw Nezha's expression, he knew what Nezha was thinking.
"What's in it for me if I become a Divine General of the Heavenly Court?" Ye Qing asked calmly.
Nezha excitedly explained the various benefits to Ye Qing.
First, identity. Becoming a Divine General of the Heavenly Court would elevate one's status. The major factions in the Heavenly Court would not dare to offend them.
Secondly, there were all sorts of precious cultivation resources in the Heavenly Court. There were also many training grounds and opportunities. It was the most suitable place for a martial artist like Ye Qing who liked to take risks and challenges.
If he became a Divine General, he would have more opportunities to cultivate in the Heavenly Court. Ye Qing's strength would improve even faster.
Nezha also mentioned a third reason. There were many beautiful women in the Heavenly Court. He guessed that Ye Qing would like them.
After a while, Nezha explained all sorts of reasons. But only one attracted Ye Qing.
There were all sorts of training grounds in the Heavenly Court. There were more opportunities!
Ye Qing had already become a top Saint in the Levitation Heavenly Palace. If he continued to stay there, there was not much room for improvement.
However, it would be completely different if he went to the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court's foundation was extremely strong. It was the ruler of the entire Heavenly Court.
Going to the Heavenly Court to train sounded like a good idea. Ye Qing thought about it and nodded.
"Little Nezha, when will the Heavenly Court's selection test begin?
Before that, I want to find Taoist Xuan Ji! "Ye Qing lowered his voice and asked.
"Oh?
Boss, you don't have to find Taoist Xuan Ji. He's an elder of the Supreme Xuan Pure Palace. It's very likely that he'll participate in the Heavenly Court's selection. "
Nezha chuckled. "In fact, many elders of the major sects in the Heavenly Court participated in the selection. They all yearned to become a member of the Heavenly Court."
