Divine King of Honour

Xu Nian watched the three people coming, and he noticed that Mei Ji was just standing at the back.

In front of her stood two men.

The second in line was a young-looking man, but his Cultivation was not weak, having already reached the Middle Stage Earth Immortal.

His Immortal Body transformation seemed to be halfway complete. As for the one walking at the very front, he was an elder with an immortal demeanor.

This person was dressed in white, and although his hair was entirely white, he didn't look old at all. His back was straight, and his skin was as delicate as a baby's. When he walked, he unconsciously exuded intense pressure.

Most importantly, Xu Nian couldn't discern his Cultivation level, indicating that the other party was at least at the Earth Immortal Late Stage.

"Greetings, Tianbao Pavilion Master!" Liu Bai Ru greeted respectfully as she saw the elder approaching.

Xu Nian was startled. He didn't expect this elder to be the Tianbao Pavilion Master.

Despite being a guest at Tianbao Pavilion, he had never seen the Pavilion Master until now.

Unexpectedly, he encountered him here today.

"Haha, no need to be so formal, Master Liu. Oh, are your injuries healed?" the elder laughed heartily but then showed a look of surprise.

Apparently, he knew about Liu Bai Ru's injuries but hadn't expected them to be healed.

"Fortunately, I happened upon some opportunity that allowed me to recover," Liu Bai Ru replied with a smile.

The elder nodded with a smile, indicating his approval.

"It seems Master Liu has not only recovered from her injuries, but her strength has also returned. Perhaps it won't be long before she breaks through to the Earth Immortal Late Stage," the young man said with a smile.

"Vice Pavilion Master, you flatter me. Everyone knows you're one of the top geniuses in the Tianhen Star Domain, reaching the Middle Stage Earth Immortal at such a young age," Liu Bai Ru said to the young man with a smile.

The young man smiled slightly, clearly pleased by Liu Bai Ru's words.

As for Mei Ji, she ignored Liu Bai Ru and instead looked at Xu Nian as if pondering something.

Xu Nian frowned slightly. Did Mei Ji discover something?

But he had clearly changed his appearance, even his aura, and might go undetected even by someone at the Earth Immortal Peak. How could she possibly notice?

"What is your name?" Mei Ji approached Xu Nian and asked.

"Eh?" Xu Nian was taken aback and replied, "My name is Xu Ping. Sister, you're so beautiful! Is there something you need from me?"

Upon hearing this, Mei Ji instinctively frowned and replied, "Nothing, I just thought your eyes looked like a friend's."

She had initially felt that Xu Ping's gaze resembled Xu Nian's.

But when Xu Nian called her beautiful, she dismissed her suspicions.

Because she knew Xu Nian would never say such things.

Soon, Mei Ji and her companions left.

Xu Nian also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Well done, little Ping, you're even flirting with beauties now," Shi Guangxu teased, deliberately placing a hand on Xu Nian's shoulder.

Xu Nian glared at him, making a motion as if to kick him.

Shi Guangxu was so startled he immediately covered his rear, not daring to speak further.

Xu Nian, however, was still in disbelief as he watched Mei Ji's departing figure. That Mei Ji could even suspect him was beyond his expectations.

It seemed this Transformation Technique could change one's aura and appearance, but it couldn't change a person's eyes.

But there wouldn't be many people who could recognize Xu Nian through his eyes alone.

Xu Nian and his group had now arrived at the gates of Guihai City, where Liu Bai Ru presented their invitation.

The guards immediately let them in, showing a respectful demeanor.

All around them were various powerful factions.

Under the guidance of the guards, Xu Nian and his companions soon arrived at the central square of the Guihai family's residence.

At this moment, a considerable number of people had already gathered in the square, most of whom were top figures from the Tianhen Star Domain.

The entire crowd numbered more than three hundred, the majority of whom were at the Earth Immortal stage.

In the Guihai family, Guihai Badao and Guihai Yanshan stood at the road's entrance, welcoming guests.

Recognizing familiar faces, they eagerly went up to greet them.

Xu Nian took one look at the two of them and confirmed they had indeed reached the Earth Immortal stage.

"Master Liu, it's a pleasure to have you here," Guihai Ba Dao said with a joyful smile upon seeing Liu Bai Ru.

He was wearing a red robe, which made him appear particularly festive.

"Congratulations on breaking through to the Earth Immortal stage and marrying a beautiful bride. How could I not come to such a joyous occasion?" Liu Bai Ru said with a smile.

"Haha, breaking through is nothing in front of Master Liu, and my marriage is even less significant. This time, the main event is our Guihai family's Tianlong ceremony," Guihai Badao said with a smile.

Guihai Yanshan also nodded with a joyful expression.

Guihai Tiangong was his son, and naturally, he was very pleased.

Xu Nian remained expressionless, observing the Guihai family's two brothers.

But Shi Guangxu, at his side, could not contain himself and wore a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"Oh? I heard about this. But I'm curious, who is this Master of Young Master Tianlong?" Liu Bai Ru asked with a smile.

"That's a secret for now, but I can tell Master Liu that you know him," Guihai Badao said with a smile.

Liu Bai Ru showed a surprised expression and then awkwardly smiled.

It seemed the Guihai family was playing coy, hinting that this person had a significant background.

"And who might these two be?" Guihai Badao glanced at Xu Nian and Shi Guangxu standing next to the Third Elder and asked.

He had certainly noticed Shi Guangxu's sarcasm but didn't need to hold a grudge against a junior.

"They're both disciples from my Tiande Sect, here to gain some experience," Liu Bai Ru casually replied.

"Truly, heroes come from the younger generation. To have reached the Peak of Tribulation Crossing at such a young age is indeed impressive," Guihai Badao said with a smile.

He also patted Xu Nian on the shoulder as he spoke.

Xu Nian was taken aback, a guarded look in his eyes.

This cunning old fox of the Guihai family was testing him. He clearly felt a trace of Immortal Essence enter his body.

"Guihai Family Master, you're too kind. Compared to Young Master Guihai Tiangong, I am still far behind," Xu Nian said with a maintained smile.

Inside, however, he maintained his composure, using the devouring technique of the Undying Devouring Sky Beast to absorb that trace of Immortal Essence.

"Haha, you're impressive too. Even if not quite like Tiangong, you're still a standout among the younger generation. Alright, Master Liu, please proceed to your seats," Guihai Batian said with a smile.

Liu Bai Ru didn't say more and led Xu Nian and his companions to their seats in the square.

"Second Brother, why did you test that young man just now?" Guihai Yanshan immediately asked through transmission once Liu Bai Ru and her party had left.

Guihai Badao's expression was somber. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. But I felt a trace of our Guihai family's Asura Three Sabers' Sword Intent in him, though it disappeared in an instant. Maybe I was overthinking, but this kid is quite peculiar. The trace of Immortal Essence I entered into his body vanished without a trace."

"Vanished? It seems he might have a unique body constitution!" Guihai Yanshan said.

"Perhaps! It seems the Tiande Sect has picked up a talent. I initially thought we could surpass the Tiande Sect, allowing our Guihai family to enter the top five, but now that seems unlikely," Guihai Badao said, shaking his head, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

"That may not be true, Second Brother. Look who's arrived," Guihai Yanshan said with a smile.

Guihai Badao looked forward and immediately smiled.

The Master of the Mountain Sea Sect had finally arrived!
