The Legend of Futian

Chapter 1888 Jun Qiuyan

"A member of the Jun Clan," Emperor Helian, who was beside Ye Futian, transmitted his voice to him. Before they arrived at the Penglai Deity Region, they had briefly talked about the top factions on the Penglai Continent, and among them was the Jun Clan.

This Jun Qiuyan was, naturally, one of the young masters of the Jun Clan.

Ye Futian sized him up using his eyes. This Jun Qiuyan looked to be about his age, so their cultivation level should be quite similar. Naturally, his presence and aura were outstanding; otherwise, he would not have purchased so many Eastern Deity Tokens over here and tried to buy Ye Futian out and have him become his follower.

It was not difficult to guess his intentions. Jun Qiuyan wanted to use the Eastern Deity Tokens to gather a group of people to enter the Eastern Deity Island with him. One Eastern Deity Token would allow him to bring ten people. If he gathered a huge number of Eastern Deity Tokens, it was natural that he would be able to bring a lot of cultivators with him. By buying off some other followers, he would become one of the most powerful groups that entered the Eastern Deity Island.

It seemed like these top Penglai Continent factions were already preparing for their entry on the Eastern Deity Island.

"No need. I saw this Hell’s Lotus first. Could you leave it for me?" Ye Futian smiled and answered Jun Qiuyan. He did not get angry but asked politely.

"Not even considering it?" Jun Qiuyan asked. He looked toward some of the other cultivators beside him and said, "Over these past few days, people from many continents have come to gather here in Penglai. I am sure you are the same. Some of these people with me are practitioners from all continents. We can help take care of each other if we stay together."

"Thank you," replied Ye Futian. Then, he followed up and said, "But, I am used to working alongside my friends. However, your kindness is very much appreciated."

Jun Qiuyan looked thoughtfully at Ye Futian. His body stopped moving for a brief moment, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense. However, it did not last long as in the next moment. Jun Qiuyan smiled and returned this Hell’s Lotus to the stall owner and said, "I will leave it to him."

However, the stall owner did not dare to offend Jun Qiuyan. After the stall owner exchanged the item with Jun Qiuyan, Ye Futian looked at the owner. However, the stall owner smiled and said, "I apologize, but the Hell’s Lotus is no longer for sale."

A sharp light flashed across Ye Futian’s eyes. He glanced at the stall owner.

After the stall owner finished speaking, a raging aura emanated from Little Condor’s body. Its eyes were filled with an intense and sharp aura. Even he could see why the owner refused to sell. His master was actually "humiliated" in this Penglai Deity Lake.

"I don’t want it anymore," Xia Qingyuan said to Ye Futian. Naturally, she knew that the Hell’s Lotus was to help her cultivate. However, who’d have expected a problem to arise from this. They came to an agreement to purchase it first before Jun Qiuyan cut in line to snatch it away; the stall owner did not hesitate at all in the process and handed the item to Jun Qiuyan.

Now, Jun Qiuyan gave up, but the stall owner was still worried about offending him. As such, he did not dare to trade with them. She naturally knew that Ye Futian was a proud person and the stall owner’s action was most definitely trampling on Ye Futian’s dignity and reputation.

As such, she was infuriated. Even if the stall owner were willing to trade, she would no longer want it.

Ye Futian looked at the stall owner and smiled. Then, he said, "You sure have no principles when it comes to business."

After that, he turned around and left the place. He did not waste time chit-chatting there. This was the Penglai Deity Lake, which the major factions of the Penglai Continent controlled. If they did not want to trade, there was nothing he could do.

Everyone glanced coldly at the stall owner before leaving. Only Black Wind Condor continued to glare fiercely at him.

The stall owner did not mind and looked calmly at Little Condor. There were only a few days left before they could enter the Eastern Deity Island. Who knew what would happen on the Eastern Deity Island if he were to offend Jun Qiuyan here? He understood this quite clearly.

While Jun Qiuyan did not say it clearly, for something like that, he just needed to realize it himself.

Ye Futian circled the Penglai Deity Lake one more time and did not find the item that he wanted. After that, he left the place.

"It looks like not many treasures can catch the pavilion head’s eyes," said Emperor Helian to Ye Futian with a laugh.

Ye Futian did not deny it. It was true; not many treasures caught his eye.

"However, once they get out of Eastern Deity Island, more good things will probably be available." Emperor Helian then continued and said, "Of course, most people will not be willing to put them up for sale, but there are bound to be exceptions."

Ye Futian’s group left the Penglai Deity Lake and met up with the others outside. They prepared to leave the place when suddenly, several ladies covered in white robes appeared. The ladies were elegant and looked otherworldly, and they attracted a lot of people’s attention.

"Deities of the Eastern Deity Island," someone mumbled quietly. Ye Futian also recognized them. These girls were also among the deities of the Eastern Deity Island who went to issue their invite at the Dongyuan Pavilion.

They seemed to be headed straight towards Ye Futian. They stopped in front of Ye Futian and clasped their hands together to greet him, "Greeting the head of the Dongyuan Pavilion."

"Is there something the matter, dear deities?" Ye Futian asked.

"Deity Bai invites you for a gathering," one of the girls said. Ye Futian changed his expression. This meant that they were there for him. As to how they were able to find him, it was not that surprising. The Eastern Deity Tokens emitted an aura wave, and the people from Eastern Deity Island could use these waves to locate the Eastern Deity Tokens.

When they enter the Eastern Deity Island, they had to return these Eastern Deity Tokens.

"Where?" Ye Futian asked.

"The Rain Deity Terrace. However, we might have to trouble you to head there by yourself as we need to find and invite the others," replied the deity. Ye Futian looked at Emperor Helian and the others. Emperor Helian nodded and said, "The base of the Eastern Deity Island within the Penglai Deity Region."

"That is fine." Ye Futian nodded. The Deity Bai that the girl mentioned was most probably the woman who led the group that visited the Dongyuan Pavilion.

"Thank you, pavilion head. Then, I shall take my leave first." After that, the deities walked past Ye Futian and headed toward the Penglai Deity Lake. It looked like one of those they were inviting was at the Penglai Deity Lake.

"Let’s head over there," said Ye Futian. Emperor Helian nodded and led the way. The Rain Deity Terrace was a famous location, so it was natural that they knew where it was.

They leaped into the air, and within the Void inside the Penglai Deity Region, cultivators continuously came in and out. Looking down from above, bustling with activities, people moved all around, and the place looked incredibly prosperous.

They headed toward another location. After an hour, a Celestial Pavilion appeared in front of them, and the words "Rain Deity Terrace" were carved on it.

In the lower portion of the Rain Deity Terrace, many people have gathered. They raised their heads to look up. Some of the people walked upward along the stairs. They were all invited guests.

Ye Futian and his group looked toward the upper part of the terrace. A decent amount of people had gathered there. As a sign of respect, Ye Futian’s group landed on the ground first before moving upward along the stairs. Someone came to greet them and brought them up to the top of the Rain Deity Terrace.

By then, many cultivators had gathered around the Rain Deity Terrace. They sat in an arc at different locations. There were a lot of seats, and it was very spacious. The number of practitioners and cultivators in each direction was not too high, and the woman who helped to guide them brought them to a location to be seated.

Ye Futian raised his head to look forward. As he had expected, the woman who went to Dongyuan Pavilion to invite them in the past was leading the event. She looked as stunning and extraordinary as a deity.

This woman was called Bai Mu, a practitioner of the Eastern Deity Island.

The Eastern Deity Island would send envoy deities once every decade to all the continents to invite practitioners to enter their island. The people who arrived today were all invited by Bai Mu. She knew the locations of all the Eastern Deity Tokens that she handed out.

As Ye Futian headed for his seat, many gazes were cast in his direction. The leaders of most of the attendees were on the older side. People as young as Ye Futian were incredibly rare. Many assumed that he was the heir of some top faction.

"Eastern Deity Island, Bai Mu. I have not yet asked for your name, pavilion head," Bai Mu said as she looked at Ye Futian.

"Ye Liunian," replied Ye Futian.

A middle-aged person on the side asked, "Which pavilion’s head?"

"Dongyuan Pavilion," answered Ye Futian.

"Dongyuan Pavilion." Many in the surrounding showed a surprised expression. While they came from continents from all over, some of the continents knew that the Dongyuan Pavilion was, similar to them, one of the holy lands that were built after the Great Emperor instructed that they needed to spread their ideals.

However, why was the pavilion head of the Dongyuan Pavilion so young?

"The Eastern Deity Island will be open soon. As such, I went to the holy lands of every continent to invite you over to gather here. It is my honor to meet each of you. Pavilion head Ye is the youngest Pavilion head among all the heads over here. I can imagine that you are outstanding," Bai Mu said gently.

"Miss Deity, you are flattering me. I am very lucky," Ye Liunian replied. The other people were sizing up Emperor Helian and the others standing beside Ye Futian. They were wondering if Ye Futian was just a puppet used by these people.

After all, when the factions of a continent fail to reach some agreement, they would usually elect a puppet to manage the holy land; however, in truth, the factions of the continent would control things behind the scenes.

"The previous Dongyuan Pavilion head should be Liu Han, isn’t that right? How is he?" asked a middle-aged person. Emperor Helian had seen him before. He was the master of a neighboring continent.

"Liu Han went against the will of the Great Emperor and treated the holy land as part of his faction. He has been killed," Emperor Helian answered.

"So, that’s what happened." The middle-aged man smiled and did not speak. It was as if he had just realized something. He thought, "It was an internal conflict after all. It caused the Dongyuan Pavilion’s head to fall, and thus, they are now supporting a puppet."

The people around them also had an expression of realization on their faces, thinking that they had understood the situation.

"So, does that mean that the continent where the Dongyuan Pavilion is situated did not have any suitable person to become the new head?" A voice emerged from afar. Everyone shifted their gaze to look back. Then, a figure appeared from the sky. The person did not arrive on the ground. Instead, he simply landed atop the Rain Deity Terrace. Many got off their seats and clasped their hands together before shouting, "Young Master Jun has arrived."

The person who came was the person whom Ye Futian had met not that long ago—Jun Qiuyan.

Jun Qiuyan was actually also invited here.

When he spoke, he did not look in the direction of Ye Futian’s group; instead, he looked at Bai Mu. He landed on the ground directly opposite Bai Mu at the banquet. Then, he clasped his hands together and said, "Jun Qiuyan is meeting Deity Bai."

"Young Master Jun, you don’t have to be so courteous." Bai Mu continued to speak in a relaxed manner. "Please take a seat."

"Thank you." Jun Qiuyan sat down. He scanned the crowd. After that, his gaze stopped when he saw Ye Futian. He smiled and said, "Who would have thought that we’d see each other again so soon."

Ye Futian looked at him before saying, "Indeed. It is quite a coincidence."

"Have the two of you already met?" Bai Mu asked.

"We met each other not that long ago at Penglai Deity Lake. I admired Pavilion Head Ye a lot. However, I was not enough for Pavilion Head Ye," Jun Qiuyan laughed and said. Then suddenly, everyone’s expression changed.
