Master of Untold Daos

Chapter 411 - What Did I Say?



Chapter 411: What Did I Say?

The people saw Bian Canwang go up, only to come down with vacant eyes. What could possibly horrify an Immortal King to such extent?

“What did they predict?”

“Was it fiends’ fate?”

“By Bian Canwang’s look, it must be a hell of a secret!”

They saw Zhan Tianyang moving his hand over the table. He lost. The hardest in this world was still to know the other was clearly in the wrong yet have no way of proving it.

He could only lose.

Zhan Tianyang rose and bowed, “Sage’s Dharma is deep. This old man admits his loss!”

He left in his carriage. Bian Canwang was in shock as he sped after him.

Second and Ninth couldn’t believe it as they walked to Chen Ming where the first spoke, “Sage won just like that?”

Chen Ming smiled, “Let’s attend the banquet. I’m a little hungry.”

Second gave a belly laughter, “Sage Ran Zui won!”

The spectating cultivators cried, “Sage Ran Zui won!”

“The four Great Immortal Domains won!”

It was a full-blown celebration on the streets. The four Great Immortal Domains turned this around!

Sage Ran Zui divined and proved Heaven’s Will was still on their side!

Chen Ming saw the people here were mostly Heavenly Court’s generals, having nothing to do with the common people.

Or to be more precise, it had nothing to do with those below the Immortal realm.

The reason for an Immortal Domain was its position above all living things. Mortal kingdoms’ matters were inconsequential to it. An eagle would never gaze at an ant.

The four Great Immortal Domains were each a colossus. If I didn’t win through sheer dumb luck, I don’t think I will ever get another chance at their steles.

Now all that’s left is to nab the perfect timing to gaze upon them.

To be honest, Chen Ming had no clue as to the hardships his Limitless Dao Body entailed.

Under Second and Ninth’s grand invitation, Chen Ming stepped into Heavenly Court’s magnificent hall on this star.

The feast had long been ready, and it wasn’t only Heavenly Court’s people attending, but other Immortal Domain’s princes. They all came to celebrate.

In his eyes, Immortal Domain was but a company with extensive board members. The Emperor was the chairman, while the High Priest the CEO.

What was to be done, or if to do it, it all came down to High Priest’s word. As for profit, it was split among the board members, each getting their share.

And what High Priest got from all this? The board members were perhaps oblivious, or perhaps clear on it but turned a blind eye. Since dividing profit was already great and all.

Chen Ming’s step into the hall was met with the bow of every guest, “We greet Sage Ran Zui!”

Chen Ming smiled with a nod.

They returned to their seats and Second took him to the highest table. Chen Ming eyed it, Damn, what a table. Four princes of which two are Heavenly Court’s.

The four High Priests were supposed to be here, but since Chen Ming was present, they would stick out like sore thumbs.

Chen Ming took his seat when Heavenly Court’s prince, Tie Pan, said, “Thank you for all your effort, Sage, into safeguarding the foundation of us four Great Immortal Domains.”

Chen Ming smiled, “It was nothing.”

Second said, “Sage comes from far away and has yet to eat. Everyone knows Sage’s body is that of a mortal and can’t go long without going hungry. Sage, these are all gourmet dishes, please enjoy.”

The princes nodded. All heart monks were of mortal bodies, unlike them, who couldn’t die from hunger.

Tie Pan said, “It is I who lacked manner, please enjoy, Sage,”

Chen Ming now felt the slight pangs of hunger. He was half full when Jade Lake’s prince, Qian Qiu asked, “Sage, what will you be doing now, have you thought where you’re going next?”

This was a probing question, “I am but a drifter, going where suffering lies.”

Qian Qiu was in glee. Oh, the suffering of others! Then you better stay, or how will you save the people? “Sage, Jade Lake has secluded lands and a great environment for mental cultivation.”

Chen Ming chuckled, “Let’s eat.”

Who are you kidding? You think princes like you can play me? How will I peek at the stele then?

Qian Qiu realized something, I see. With how great Sage Ran Zui is, how can our invitation move him. Moreover, what’s wrong with me asking an expert above four High Priests over, planning a coup?

Only the Emperor might sway him.

Chen Ming showed his stance and the four princes no longer asked. With the banquet’s end, Second led him to his dwelling. His most pressing thought, Where’s the reward?

Second said, “Sage will stay here for now. I sent word to Lord Father and his edict will arrive shortly.”

That’s the reward he was waiting for, I have prevailed over Headless Assembly’s priest and my prestige surpassed the four High Priests. How about you make me Imperial Tutor?

Or better yet, take me to your stele?

As for sneaking around their location and pilfer their scriptures, Don’t be an idiot, this never happens or is written. I’m no Main Character who can just swagger over to find no guards at that particular moment. And you expect me to do it four f*cking times?

Chen Ming gazed at the Galaxy from his room through a sunroof, It’s going to rain, won’t I get soaked to death if I sleep here?

He sent word and in came a nervous Second. He couldn’t, for the life of him, understand what could he do to help an exalted one like Sage.

Second was about to ask when he followed Chen Ming’s finger pointing at the sky. His meaning, It’s going to rain so hurry up and close the window!

Sage is a mortal!

Chen Ming pointed as Second laughed, “Sage’s foresight is divine. I haven’t asked and Sage already answered!”

What did I say?
