Wen Sansi did not mind the Wang family cultivator's attitude, as this was the self-restraint of a scholar. He looked around and breathed in the air. This was the Cosmic Tree Realm. He had not had the opportunity to come here before, but now, he was finally here.
He looked at his body and wondered if his cultivation was about to break through.
It made sense, as his cultivation had been stagnant for too long due to the lack of star energy.
Originally, he had been like Xing Kai and the others, intercepting the cultivators from the Cosmic Tree Realm who wanted to enter the fifth tower. However, Chu Yuan and the others had sealed off the path too tightly, and anyone with four or even five Origin Tribulations could not pass. Everyone was about the same age, and the Cosmic Tree Realm could not find fault with them. The Fifth Mainland did not need them to act, so Wen Sansi had come.
He was not the only one, as Xing Kai, Liu Tianmu, and Ling Gong had all planned to come as well.
Wen Sansi was the first person the Wang family cultivator had tried to rope in, but he had not gotten off to a good start. He spat, "Ignorant fool."
At this moment, someone else came up.
"Name."
"Nan Yanfei."
"Cultivation."
"Enlighter."
The Wang family cultivator was astonished, and he looked at Nan Yanfei. Another Enlighter this young?
Although he was not too outstanding in the Cosmic Tree Realm, he was not bad either. He thought about what his family had told him, and his tone softened. "How much do you know about the Wang family?"
Wen Sansi's matter had made him think that these people did not understand the greatness of the Four Way Scales.
Nan Yanfei thought about it. "The Four Way Scales rule the Cosmic Tree Realm. It sits in the Topmost Realm and is backed by a Progenitor. No one dares to provoke it."
The Wang family cultivator praised, "Well said, very well said. It seems like you understand the Wang family very well. Do you want to join?"
"No," Nan Yanfei replied with two words.
The Wang family cultivator was stunned. "What did you say?"
Nan Yanfei repeated, "No."
"You don't understand the Wang family?"
The Wang family cultivator did not understand, and Wang Yan looked on as well.
Nan Yanfei answered seriously, "Very well." He then took out a huge, clearly roasted wing from his cosmic ring. It was about half the size of a person, and it gave off an alluring aroma. It was unknown what kind of creature it belonged to.
"Then why don't you want to join?"
The Wang family cultivator was confused, as he clearly understood the greatness of the Four Way Scales.
Nan Yan Fei said, "If I don't want to, then I don't want to. Can I leave now?" He then walked towards Wen Sansi.
What a joke! He had once been a Realmling from the Sixth Mainland, and the Sixth Mainland had a grudge with the Fifth Mainland, especially with the people from the Cosmic Tree Clan. During the final battle, the Fifth Mainland and the Sixth Mainland had fought fiercely over the primeval surnames of the Cosmic Tree Clan. How could he have dared to join them?
Aren't you afraid of being killed?
No cultivator from the Sixth Mainland could join the Four Way Scales.
The Wang Clan's cultivators had suffered consecutive defeats and were starting to lose confidence. What was wrong with these people?
"Name."
"Silver."
"Cultivation."
"Enlighter."
The cultivator from the Wang family raised an eyebrow. Another Enlighter at such a young age. What the hell, were there so many geniuses in the Fifth Mainland?
Even in the Cosmic Tree Realm, there were many Enlighters who had reached the Enlighter realm at a young age, but that did not mean that it was easy to reach. "Do you want to join my Wang family?"
Wang Yan stared at it.
Silver smiled brilliantly. The corners of his mouth curved up like a fox's, causing the Wang Family cultivator, including Wang Yan, to panic.
He just smiled there, not saying a single word. It was quite strange.
The Wang family cultivator's face twitched. "What are you smiling about?"
Silver was still smiling, and his smile made the cultivator's back turn cold. He waved a hand. "Go, go, go. Next."
"Name."
"Tai Yishen."
The Wang family cultivator was speechless and looked at Tai Yishen. "Did your parents give you this name?"
Tai Yishen raised his head. "I don't need parents. I'm a god, and I can create something out of nothing."
Creating something out of nothing? The Wang family cultivator wanted to beat him up, but where did his arrogance come from?
He was even more arrogant than the son of the Four Way Scales. "Next, name." He did not even want to waste time.
"Xin Jiao."
This time, it was a woman, and the Wang family cultivator relaxed. He always felt that there was something wrong with the cultivators in the wasteland. They either did not know what was good for them, or they just smiled without thinking. It really was a wasteland.
This woman should be more normal, and she was not young either.
"Cultivation."
"Enlighter."
The Wang family cultivator rolled his eyes. She was still an Enlighter. "Why did you come to this region of space?"
"Little brother, I want to speak with your Wang family head." Xin Jiao smiled.
The Wang family cultivator's eyelids twitched. "Who do you want to speak with?"
"Your Wang family head," Xin Jiao said naturally. "I'm one of the directors of the Fifth Mainland's Hall of Honor, and I want to discuss some matters with the Wang family head on behalf of the Hall of Honor."
The Wang family cultivator resisted the urge to curse, as he had never even heard of the Hall of Honor. "The family head won't meet you." He then pointed in a direction. "Go by yourself."
"Little brother, this matter concerns two regions of space. We need a reasonable plan for traveling between the Astral Tree Realm and the Fifth Mainland. As one of the directors, I need to draft a plan and submit it to the Sect above the Heavens. Little brother, please contact the Wang family head …" Xin Jiao said patiently.
She had no other choice. Ever since New Heaven's Sect had been established, the Hall of Honor had lost all of its authority. She, as a director, had fallen from the heavens to the mortal realm, and it was very difficult for her to adapt. She had been trying to find a way to return to Lu Yin's attention and obtain a position in the Heaven's Sect, which was why she had come here. She wanted to see if there was anything she could do to attract Lu Yin's attention.
The Wang family cultivator immediately chased her away. "What nonsense are you talking about? Look at yourself. You want to meet the family head? Scram!"
Highsage Shen Wei had been watching the entire time, and he almost burst out laughing. What was the Wang family thinking? The first batch of people to come to the Astral Tree Realm had to be recognized by the Sect above the Heavens. These people all had some status in the Fifth Mainland, so how could they be easily roped in? Even if they wanted to join the Four Way Scales, they wouldn't dare to be so brazen.
Wang Yan naturally knew this, but he had no other choice. The Four Way Scales hoped to use this method to rope in the Fifth Mainland's cultivators and slap Lu Yin's face. This would make Lu Yin fearful and prevent other cultivators from coming to this region of space. No matter what the outcome was, he had to do it.
However, was there something wrong with these Fifth Mainland's cultivators?
None of them seemed normal.
On the Wang family's mainland, Wang Fan shook his head. Beside him stood Bai Teng, Xia Xing, and Long Ke.
"These people won't join us. After all, they're the first batch that's been vetted by the Fifth Mainland. If they join us, it'll be too much of a slap to Lu Xiaoxuan's face. There's no need to look anymore," Wang Fan said.
Bai Teng and the others exchanged glances as they watched the Wang family's cultivators try to rope them in one by one. Towards the end, they didn't even ask about their cultivations and just directly tried to rope them in. However, none of them joined the Wang family, which disappointed them.
"Let's go. No one will join us," Wang Fan said.
Just as he finished speaking, an unforeseen event occurred below.
"I'll join! I'll join!
Remember, take me away! I want to join the Wang family! Bah! I don't care which family it is, as long as you can take me away! "
Wang Fan and the others heard this and looked down. Someone actually dared to join?
This was a slap to Lu Xiaoxuan's face in front of everyone.
There were definitely people who wanted to join the Four Way Scales, but they shouldn't be the first batch.
Within the valley, the Wang family's cultivator was at a loss. He had been rejected so many times that he was already used to it. He hadn't expected this person to be so eager to join without even asking. The Wang family's cultivator sized up the person in front of him; this was a fraud.
A wretched old man appeared in front of Lu Yin. He was dressed in plain grey robes and carried a wooden flag. The front of the flag had the words "Starsibyl's Ninth Grandpa" engraved on it, while the back had the words "Fortune Teller — Believe it or not."
。
This person was Xuan Jiu.
Given Xuan Jiu's relationship with Lu Yin, no one would stop him from being the first batch to enter the Astral Tree Domain.
Xuan Jiu's goal in coming here was simple: escape from Lu Yin. The further the better, the better. It would be best if Lu Yin could not affect him. He had almost coughed up blood before, and he did not want to experience that again. He could not escape from the Fifth Mainland, so he could only come to this region of space.
He had to get as far away from Lu Yin as possible and find a place with a Progenitor as his backer. That way, he might be able to avoid being affected by fate.
Xuan Jiu stared at the Wang family cultivator and said, "Little Brother, I see that your complexion is rosy, and there's a faint purple aura coming from the east that flows down from your forehead to your chest. You must meet a benefactor today. Hurry up and bring me into the Wang family. I'll guide you on how to find that benefactor and break free from your original fate to achieve glory."
The Wang family cultivator was stunned by his words and subconsciously replied, "You're a liar."
Xuan Jiu barked, "How could Grandpa Jiu be a liar? Go ask around and find out how famous Grandpa Jiu is in the Fifth Mainland. It's your fortune to be able to come to this region of space."
The Wang family cultivator looked at Wang Yan for help, not knowing how to handle this.
It would be great if a normal person was willing to join the Wang family, even if it was a very ordinary cultivator. However, this person seemed problematic no matter how he looked at it.
Before Wang Yan could say anything, Wang Fan's voice sounded out. "Chase him away." He would rather not have this person than try to rope in a liar who seemed problematic. How embarrassing. The Wang family's doors were not that easy to enter.
Wang Yan waved his hand.
The Wang family cultivator pointed in the direction of Wen Sansi and the others. "Go by yourself. Go further away."
"Little Brother, you must believe me. Grandpa Jiu's fortune-telling is the most accurate," Xuan Jiu pleaded. He just wanted to hide in a place with a Progenitor overseeing things. Who cared about his relationship with Lu Yin?
He had clearly tried to rope him in.
"Go go go, don't block the way," the Wang family cultivator said impatiently.
Xuan Jiu was angered. "You brat, don't be ungrateful. So many people from the Fifth Mainland have begged Grandpa Jiu to read their fortunes, but Grandpa Jiu disdained them. Fine, you don't want to accept Grandpa Jiu, right? Grandpa Jiu will read your fortune. Your Wang family is destined to achieve eternal glory and reach the peak.
The Wang family cultivator frowned. "Flattery is useless. Hurry up and scram."
Many of the Fifth Mainland's cultivators looked at them strangely. They all understood Xuan Jiu; this old thing was always the opposite. If he said good things, then bad things were bound to happen. If he said bad things, then good things were bound to happen.
Now that Xuan Jiu was praising the Wang family, even Highsage Shen Wei was worried for the Wang family. If this old thing could curse the Wang family to death with just his mouth, then he would be even more ruthless than a Progenitor.
