THE FAIRIES I FLIRTED WITH IN THE GAME BECAME REAL?!

[Meeting with the Glass Immortal Maiden from the Mysterious Sword Sect, Task: The Heavens are Dead ⑥—Completed]

[New Task: The Heavens are Dead ⑦ Unlocked]

[Task Content: Reach the Mount Xianfeng Buddhist Cave Temple and Sever the Roots of the Nine Nether Soul Summoning Great Formation]

With the unlocking of the new task popping up in his field of vision, Li Muyang let out a long sigh of relief.

A smile appeared on his face.

He was another step closer to clearing the level!

Severing the roots of the great formation here and stripping away the Emperor’s power, which exceeded all reason, was a prerequisite for killing this Emperor boss.

And the long-sought Chu Qingxue was finally met at this moment.

Seeing the familiar immortal maiden appear amidst the demonic mist, Li Muyang’s smile was warm.

He saved his game first, preparing to say something.

But just then, the voices of the maids in reality reached his ears.

“… Your Majesty, Elder Yan has requested your presence.”

Upon hearing this voice, Li Muyang’s smile instantly faded, and he abruptly opened his eyes and looked towards the door of the quiet room.

The person delivering the message outside the door was his maid.

Elder Yan Xiaoru wanted to see him?

Li Muyang rose to his feet and stepped outside to the courtyard.

It was already noon, with brilliant sunlight spilling across the land.

Li Muyang had inadvertently played through an entire all-nighter again.

Looking at the time, today should be when Elder Yan Xiaoru was supposed to meet her friend Jing Muan, right?

Didn’t they say he should hide and not go out, not to be seen by Jing Muan?

Why was someone calling for him now?

Li Muyang furrowed his brows and asked, “Elder Yan has summoned me? What for?”

The maid replied respectfully, “Your Majesty, the messenger bird did not say. It just urged for your Majesty to go over as quickly as possible…”

The maid’s response made Li Muyang even more surprised.

Not sending Aunt Su to deliver the message, but using a messenger bird instead?

After a brief moment of thought, Li Muyang said, “Understood, help me change clothes.”

With the maids attending to him, Li Muyang changed into a set of magnificent robes, looking much more formal.

He then stepped out of the courtyard and headed towards the sleeping quarters of Yan Xiaoru.

Soon, he arrived outside her quarters and, guided by Yan Xiaoru’s maids, stepped inside.

Within the great hall, music from string and wind instruments wafted through the air, and maids carrying exquisite plates and dishes bustled about, clearly a banquet of the highest order.

Entering the hall, Li Muyang saw Elder Yan Xiaoru seated in the place of honor.

As well as the other guests in the hall.

There were several elders from the Refinement Demon Sect, as well as two demons with strong auras and considerable strength, and some demon cultivators whom Li Muyang did not recognize but whose cultivation levels were extremely powerful.

There was also the Sect Master Protector Xie Liuyun from the Hehuan Sect and the naturally enchanting Young Sect Master Liu Lian’er.

But among these people, the one who most caught Li Muyang’s attention was the woman sitting nearest to Yan Xiaoru—beside her.

She was dressed in plain clean robes, and her face was free of makeup. In this luxurious banquet hall, where everyone else was dressed in lavish robes looking like immortals, she seemed slightly out of place.

A faint smile always hung on her face.

Though she had the appearance of a young woman, she radiated a kind, gentle aura, giving off the impression of an affectionate elder.

—Master of Immortal Device Qing Hui, descendant of the ancient Buddha sect from Miaohua Mountain!

Li Muyang instantly recognized her identity.

Qing Hui, on the other hand, merely glanced at Li Muyang when he entered and then shifted her gaze away, not appearing to take much interest in him.

This put Li Muyang somewhat at ease, so he took his seat next to Yan Xiaoru, guided by Aunt Su.

A luxurious and lively banquet continued in this manner.

Li Muyang’s mid-arrival interlude seemed to have not interrupted everyone’s refined pleasure.

The group of Purple Mansion cultivators laughed as they discussed the way of cultivation, and the arcane and abstruse content they spoke of left Li Muyang half-understanding and half-confused.

Yan Xiaoru had no intention to introduce Li Muyang and barely spoke to him, treating him as if he were invisible.

This caused some confusion for Li Muyang.

If she had called him over but wasn’t paying any attention to him… what exactly was Yan Xiaoru planning with her mysterious intentions?

Li Muyang sat among the crowd, and as a junior, since no one paid him any attention and he couldn’t join in the topics of the Purple Mansion cultivators, he was content to be at leisure.

Besides eating the delicacies and pastries on the plate before him, he simply observed the attendees without any noticeable reaction.

In a similar situation to him was the young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, Liu Lian’er.

Two juniors like them didn’t have the status to speak in such an assembly.

Yet, Liu Lian’er seemed to listen to the high cultivators’ discussions with great interest, though it was uncertain whether she truly understood or just pretended to.

A banquet of grand scale ended amidst Li Muyang’s daze.

By the time the banquet was over, the sky outside was filled with stars and the lunar glow was like water.

A banquet that had lasted an entire day.

Afterward, Yan Xiaoru rose to her feet and smilingly said to everyone, “Esteemed guests, the hour is late, please proceed to Trampling Snow Peak. Our Sect Master has returned and has prepared a feast on Trampling Snow Peak, waiting for your arrival…”

There was actually a second half to this banquet.

Li Muyang felt surprised in his heart, but had no choice but to rise and follow the crowd.

But after walking out, when passing by Aunt Su, who was standing outside the hall, this woman loyal to Yan Xiaoru transmitted a low voice message.

“…Upon your arrival at Trampling Snow Peak, stay close to the young lady and do not wander off alone!”

The low warning from Aunt Su sent a chill through Li Muyang’s heart.

Was there danger lurking in tonight’s banquet?

He looked back and realized that only the Purple Mansion realm cultivators and higher were heading to Trampling Snow Peak for this second half of the banquet.

As well as him and Liu Lian’er, the two juniors.

Liu Lian’er was standing next to Xie Liuyun of Ghost Lodging Seven, moving together with him.

And though Yan Xiaoru had brought Li Muyang along, she did not converse with him, instead talking with her good friend Qing Hui beside her.

The distant and aloof Yan Xiaoru was a version that Li Muyang had not seen for a long time.

He was somewhat unaccustomed to it and also felt uneasy.

What exactly was the deal with tonight’s banquet…

It always felt like everyone was watching him.

Even though he was completely ignored in the banquet, almost invisible.

Li Muyang was utterly confused as he followed Yan Xiaoru to Trampling Snow Peak.

A banquet had already been prepared here, more extravagant than Yan Xiaoru’s Enforcement Hall.

The Sect Master of the Demon Sect, Gong Yanghong, stood smiling on the steps, welcoming the Purple Mansion powerhouses.

Compared to the cold Yan Xiaoru, this Sect Master of the Demon Sect was much friendlier toward Li Muyang.

As Li Muyang passed by, he bowed and Gong Yanghong extended his hand with a hearty smile and patted Li Muyang’s shoulder, offering him a few words of encouragement.

He was entirely the image of a generous elder admiring a promising junior.

Soon, everyone took their seats.

Li Muyang was once again arranged to sit beside Yan Xiaoru.

But this time, the deeply cultivated Purple Mansion experts did not continue their discussions.

After everyone was seated, Gong Yanghong, who sat at the head of the table as the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, raised his cup and smilingly addressed everyone present.

“…Tonight, we of the Refinement Demon Sect have an important matter, and we wish to request the presence of everyone here to witness.”
