Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Have Him Come Out to Meet Me
Very soon, after returning to Qixian Residence, Ji Chen immediately began refining the Myriad Calamities Pill for Ye Yunge.
By the time night fell, the Elixir had been successfully refined.
Without hesitation, Ji Chen stood up and left Qixian Residence with the Myriad Calamities Pill after glancing in the direction of Celestial Peak.
The bright full moon appeared extraordinarily luminous, like a layer of white frost, covering the entire Celestial Emperor’s Mansion.
Ji Chen walked slowly, and shortly after, he arrived at Celestial Peak.
He first found Ye Yunge and discovered that Ning Bufan and the others were still there.
After handing the Elixir to Ye Yunge, they chatted for a few more moments before Ji Chen stood up with the intention of leaving.
"Are you going to find Jun Wudao at this time?"
Everyone frowned, seemingly understanding Ji Chen’s intention.
"Why not?" Ji Chen retorted.
Gu Hao said, "Jun Wudao has been here for many years, and although he has many followers, he hasn’t joined any faction over the years. It’s said that he plans to establish a faction called ’Daoist Sect’ soon. Tonight, he has invited many elites from various disciplines to Celestial Peak to discuss this matter. If you seek him out now, I’m afraid..."
Ji Chen understood Gu Hao’s implication.
Currently, Celestial Peak was hosting a gathering of young kings led by Jun Wudao.
Those invited were all top talents from the Nine Peaks. If there were a conflict with Jun Wudao now, it would most likely lead to a disadvantage.
"Just as well, the so-called Daoist Sect need not be established, they can serve as witnesses."
Ji Chen smiled and strode away after speaking.
Ning Bufan and the others exchanged glances and, without hesitation, relayed the message to Dao Dust Pavilion, informing Huang Shuying and others to hurry over.
They could foresee that there would likely be no peace atop Celestial Peak tonight.
...
Celestial Peak.
A place where disciples reside.
Immortal Monarch Mansion.
It is said that this name was chosen by Jun Wudao himself.
The living quarters for disciples here were expansive, serving as Jun Wudao’s personal residence.
Tonight, many young talents had gathered at Immortal Monarch Mansion, all of them elites from various factions of the Celestial Emperor’s Mansion, here in response to the formation of the Daoist Sect.
The crowd was substantial, numbering over a hundred, and each was extraordinary. The weakest among them had reached the Void Realm Eighth Layer, with many like Shen Yan, who were Half-Step Saint Realm powerhouses.
There were even at least a dozen Quasi-Saint powerhouses present!
This was an impressive assembly. Combined with Jun Wudao’s strength, if they truly united to form the Daoist Sect, one could imagine that its strength would leap to become the most formidable presence in Celestial Emperor City.
The gathering tonight was well-attended by elites from various factions, all with an impressive demeanor.
Ji Chen arrived slowly, coming to the so-called Immortal Monarch Mansion.
His appearance did not attract any attention.
Because there were so many young talents at the gathering, most people were conversing with each other, even starting to discuss how the Daoist Sect should develop in the future.
In front of a courtyard, Ji Chen arrived here.
Looking around, he could see banquet tables filled with countless fresh fruits and wines, but since the gathering had not officially started, no one had taken a seat yet, seemingly all waiting for Jun Wudao to appear.
Without hesitation, Ji Chen stepped directly into the courtyard.
He came to the primary seat and sat down heavily, picking up the fine wine and fresh fruits on the table to start consuming them.
"Hmm?"
This scene immediately caught the attention of the people outside the courtyard.
Someone frowned, looking over, and immediately scolded in a low voice, "Who are you? Senior Brother Jun hasn’t arrived yet, and you’re already seated. Don’t you understand the rules?"
"And you’re eating already, sitting in a seat prepared for Senior Brother Jun!"
Such comments quickly drew the attention of everyone in various parts of Immortal Monarch Mansion. People gathered around, standing at the front of the courtyard, their eyes fixed on Ji Chen sitting in the main seat.
"Where is Jun Wudao?"
Ji Chen popped a piece of fresh fruit into his mouth, chewed twice, but soon spit it out, seemingly finding the taste strange. He picked up a cup of prepared fine wine to rinse his mouth, then continued, "Have him come to see me."
"Such arrogance!"
"Who are you? Are you here to make trouble tonight?"
Initially, people thought Ji Chen was just ignorant of the rules, but now from his words, it was clear he was here with ill intentions, deliberately provoking.
"Isn’t he Ji Chen?"
"The master of Dao Dust Pavilion, the one who killed Shen Yan on the Battle Platform not long ago!"
Someone spoke up, recognizing Ji Chen, a look of surprise appearing on their face.
"And here I thought it was someone else, so you’re Ji Chen?"
From the crowd, a man in luxurious clothing stepped forward, bearing an imposing aura. He was a talent from Earth Peak, his cultivation reaching the Half-Saint Realm.
At this moment, he looked down at Ji Chen with a trace of disdain and said, "It’s said you killed Shen Yan with your Void Realm Second Layer cultivation. You do have some skill, but..."
"Do you think killing Shen Yan makes you someone of importance?"
"Don’t you see how many people here tonight have strength far above Shen Yan? How dare you be so presumptuous here alone?"
To form the Daoist Sect, those Jun Wudao recruited were all top talents from each peak, with many having strength surpassing Shen Yan.
In their eyes, even Shen Yan was of little importance, let alone Ji Chen, who was merely at the Void Realm Second Layer, completely unworthy of their attention.
No one anticipated that when the Daoist Sect was about to be established, and everyone had come to respond, Ji Chen dared to come alone to provoke. This was sheer recklessness!
"Recently, while I was away, Jun Wudao harmed someone from Dao Dust Pavilion and subdued him in Celestial Emperor City for several days, suffering the pain of a thousand swords piercing the heart. I come tonight not for anything else but to demand an explanation."
Ji Chen remained calmly seated, his eyes sweeping over the crowd ahead, continuing to speak in a calm voice, "I have nothing to say to you. Let Jun Wudao come out, otherwise, there’s no need for this gathering to be held tonight."
"Such arrogance!"
"Ji Chen! Who do you think you are?"
"Just because you killed Shen Yan, do you really think you’re invincible?"
"You think you can meet Senior Brother Jun? What a joke!"
The crowd was disdainful, their gazes entirely focused on Ji Chen.
Clearly, with the Daoist Sect about to be established, they had come to respond, intending to seize the opportunity to perform in front of Jun Wudao, hoping to gain his favor and achieve a position of power within the Daoist Sect. They never thought this opportunity would be delivered right to them, so how could they ignore it?
"Only a Void Realm Second Layer, and you dare to be arrogant? Watch me subdue you with one hand!"
A cold voice rang out. Among the crowd, a burly young man immediately stepped forward, and as he spoke, he extended his large hand aggressively toward Ji Chen.
