Eternal Life as False Emperor

Chapter 395: Chapter 338: Cultivator Night Banquet

The sky gradually darkened.

Youlinzi, Lii Huan Zhenren, and others were led by the eunuchs back to Baiyu City.

The night banquet specially prepared for them had already begun.

One team after another of eunuchs and palace maids bustled about, carrying delicious food in sequence, placing them respectfully before their guests.

However, the guests were more interested in observing their surroundings and did not touch the food before them.

Ling Xuzi shook his head and said, "For us cultivators, worldly things are merely appetites for the mouth and belly."

"If anything, consuming too much mundane food might even harm our celestial bodies."

"These foods, it’s just as well if we don’t eat them~!"

The Four Ghosts of Shannan were somewhat anxious due to the guilty conscience in their hearts, frequently surveying their surroundings.

In the direction of the Hehuan Sect, Lii Huan Zhenren refrained from eating, and the other three disciples followed suit.

They sat quietly in a cross-legged position, with their eyes closed, resting their minds.

Only Lin Fengg occasionally tilted his head back, eagerly glancing toward the rear hall.

As they conversed, several figures suddenly appeared in the side hall, walking towards them.

Instinctively looking over, they were surprised to see Shi Xianggui and his companions.

"Elder Shi!"

"Elder Shi has come out?"

"Have they successfully ignited their Soul Fire?"

Shi Xianggui and his three companions appeared somewhat pale, and their steps were unsteady as they walked over.

"Fellow Daoists~!"

Shi Xianggui cupped his hands and said, "The four of us elders are somewhat weak in our Divine Soul, so we will forgo the formal greetings."

"Not at all, not at all~"

The guests sat down effortlessly, pouring themselves a glass of fine wine.

Lii Huan Zhenren opened her eyes and asked, "Fellow Daoist Shi, the Imperial Noble Consort that Your Majesty spoke about... what kind of person is she?"

"Imperial Noble Consort?"

Shi Xianggui’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he recalled that peerless beauty and her warning to keep her existence a secret, forcing him to helplessly say:

"The Imperial Noble Consort... is one of Your Majesty’s Daoist companions, truly with the bearing of a Celestial Being!"

He never expected that within the Great Yu Imperial Palace, there was a hidden Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

And she was an extraordinarily beautiful woman!

From his observation, the Imperial Noble Consort could not be very old, at most in her twenties.

To achieve the Foundation Establishment Stage at such a young age, how terrifying must her natural talent be?

Moreover, it seemed that Your Majesty was intentionally keeping this matter hidden, so much so that no one outside knew of an elder at the Foundation Establishment Stage deep within the palace!

If this were to be leaked, it would shock the eyes of many cultivators.

How many other hidden things in this palace are there that he is unaware of?

However, to him, this was good news.

After all, since he had already offered his Soul Fire, he was now a core member of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.

The stronger the hidden strength of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, the broader the future for him and his grandson!

Thinking of this, his heart felt even more delightful.

Meanwhile, Lii Huan Zhenren furrowed her brows slightly.

Daoist Companion?

That means a consort in the harem.

And being in the position of the Imperial Noble Consort, her natural talent and cultivation must be the best among many Daoist companions. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Who knows how many Daoist companions Emperor Zhengyong actually has?

While pondering this, she suddenly heard an exclamation.

"Elder Shi! These fruits are actually Spirit Fruits!"

On the table beside them, Mu Xunsan was holding a fruit resembling a peach, dumbfounded.

"What?"

Shi Xianggui was startled and immediately took a closer look.

Coming from a family of Spirit Plant Cultivators, he was most familiar with Spirit Rice and Spirit Fruits.

After careful examination, he took a bite and sensed it intently, his eyes becoming exceedingly excited.

"Spirit Fruit! It really is a Spirit Fruit! Moreover, both its Spiritual Qi and moisture far surpass my Purple Spirit Fruit!"

"Does this mean the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty has other Spirit Plant Cultivators?"

"Hahaha...!"

At this moment, a loud and cheerful voice rang out.

A burly figure came into view, followed by a woman in a Daoist Robe.

It was none other than Xiong Gang and Xuan Jizi.

Xiong Gang laughed heartily and said, "This item is merely wild Spirit Fruit growing on the Celestial Longevity Mountain. Such things are everywhere on Celestial Longevity Mountain."

"If any of you fellow Daoists like it, I’ll have people send you eight or ten pounds later!"

The crowd, recognizing the late-stage Qi Cultivation aura around Xiong Gang, quickly stood up and said, "Greetings, Elder/Fellow Daoist!"

"Hahaha, no need for formalities!" freewebnøvel.coɱ

Xiong Gang strode forward to his seat, sat down with great ease, and said casually, "Please sit, please sit, no need to stand on ceremony."

"I am Xiong Gang of the Ten Thousand Beasts Borderless Sect."

"This, here, is Fellow Daoist Xuan Jizi; we are all of the same path."

"Now that we have all pledged allegiance to Your Majesty’s Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, we are all one family, so let us get closer!"

Upon hearing this, the others promptly examined the items on their table.

Especially Ling Xuzi and others, who also picked up a fruit and ate it.

"Hiss... It truly is Spiritual Qi!"

"This fruit is a Spirit Fruit! And this wine also has the aura of Spiritual Qi, made with Spirit Fruits?"

"This meat..."

"Is the meat of Spirit Beasts from the mountain."

"You wouldn’t believe it, but on Celestial Longevity Mountain, Spirit Beasts are becoming more numerous, with rabbits, foxes, squirrels, wild boars, and even tigers and wild wolves."

"The Ten Thousand Beasts Borderless Sect excels at Beast Taming; who knows how many Spirit Beasts we rear, hahaha..."

With Xiong Gang, who was naturally sociable, joining in, the dozen or so cultivators inside the grand hall quickly warmed up.

They drank and feasted, making the atmosphere very lively.

However, the eunuchs and palace maids beside the Four Ghosts of Shannan continually brought in fresh fruits, replacing them for them.

Even though few seemed to be eating, the consumption of Spirit Fruits on the table was brisk.
