Chapter 176: Bet on the Expert

In the Above Immortal Realm!
Azure Ville Sect.
Creak.
There were rows of rooms. The door to one of the rooms slowly swung open, along with a soft creak. A man walked in hurriedly towards the center of the main hall.
That was Gu Changqing’s grandpa.
A disciple at the door asked, “Protector Gu Yuan, did something happen? Why do you need to seek the Sect Master?”
Gu Yuan politely replied, “Yes, please, help me report it. It’s an emergency!”
The disciple smiled awkwardly and said, “That’s inconvenient because the Sect Master left a while ago.”
Gu Yuan frowned and said, “Left? Do you know what for? When will he return?”
The disciple looked around and said quietly, “I heard that it’s because of the death of an Immortal. The body’s still in the Immortal Realm! This incident is unbelievable. It’s quite phenomenal, so I’m afraid it won’t be long until news of this spreads.”
Gu Yuan looked away and smiled, “Alright, thanks for the info.”
The disciple smiled, “Welcome. Protector Gu Yuan, perhaps I can relay your message to the Sect Master when he comes back.”
Gu Yuan declined his offer. “This is too important. I’m afraid I can’t tell you anything. Sorry, goodbye.”
He turned around and left. His facial expression was conflicted!
He knew what happened to that dead Immortal. Therefore, he felt anxious.
He was too shocked by the painting earlier that he forgot the expert killed an Immortal!
The Immortal was a beginner but he was still an Immortal!
He died in the Immortal Realm and his body was still in the Immortal Realm. On top of that, the bridge to immortality started to reconnect. Something huge was about to happen. It was going to get messy.
He walked on and clenched his jaw. Then, he turned around again.
“An opportunity is right in front of me. If I miss it, what did I become an Immortal for? I should just bet on the expert! Risk it along with my grandson and great-grandchildren!”
Gu Yuan had a crazy glint in his eyes. “It’ll all be for nothing if I were to wait for the Sect Master to return. It’s an emergency, so it can’t be delayed!”
He quickly walked around the main hall instead of toward it. He came to the backyard of the Azure Ville Sect.
It had grass and flowers everywhere—it was a garden.
In the garden, there were dozens of demons from the Distraction realm who were watering the plants and taking care of the flying demons.
The flying demons were all flying beasts. You could tell they were extraordinary from their fur. They all had their heads up as they ordered the demons around. They were very prestigious.
The demons had their own social statuses. The pureblood demons that chose to stick with a sect had a high status. Normal demons were only feral demons unless they received opportunities to become more than that. Caught demons were made into slaves, food, or used for other purposes.
The dozens of demons were taken aback when they saw Gu Yuan. They hurriedly stopped what they were doing and greeted respectfully, “Greetings, Protector Gu Yuan.”
As for the flying demons, they glanced at Gu Yuan and nodded.
Gu Yuan looked at them and saluted them. He smiled politely and said, “Everybody, I have a huge opportunity to share with you all. I wonder if anyone’s interested to come with me?”
The flying demons looked at Gu Yuan with tilted heads. None of them said anything. They all simply flew away and rested on the branches of nearby trees.
Gu Yuan looked awkward. He clenched his jaw and tried again, “It really is a huge opportunity. It’s unimaginable! It won’t disappoint you!”
He was slightly pissed off. These demons had been spoiled by the Sect Master. How arrogant and impolite of them!
He would not have done this if it was not for the lack of time. He needed to find a rare demon quickly.
These demons were from the Mahayala realm. The Sect Master cared for them because they were of the Phoenix descendant. He wanted to train them into Immortal Beasts.
Gu Yuan was an Intermediate Immortal. It was already very polite of him to be so nice to them.
Moreover, it was a huge opportunity. If he was a demon and not a human, he would never give them this chance.
One of the demons said, “Huge opportunity? Tell me more.”
Gu Yuan said softly, “I know of a Godly expert who wants a flying demon as a ride. If you’re lucky enough to be chosen, it’ll be an unimaginable opportunity.”
The demons looked at him weirdly. They said in disbelief, “Expert? Using us as rides? If we tell the Sect Master what you just said to us, can you guess what’ll happen to you?”
Gu Yuan said, “I wanted to tell the Sect Master about it, but coincidentally, he isn’t around. This can’t be delayed and I don’t want to miss out on this opportunity, so I came here directly.”
One of the demons asked curiously, “Who’s this expert. Where is he?”
Gu Yuan groaned and said, “He’s someone who lives in a faraway land at the Immortal Realm.”
“Immortal Realm? Faraway land?”
The flying demons were baffled. They looked at Gu Yuan like they were looking at an idiot. Was he hallucinating?
Even the other demons who were watering plants looked at him weirdly. They did not hold it in and burst out laughing.
“What a joke! Not even six-year-olds would believe you! You want us to go to the Immortal Realm to be someone’s ride?”
The most arrogant flying demon sneered coldly, “Did you hit your head while fighting? I suggest you get that checked out or it’ll be too late once you go full lunatic!”
Gu Yuan said, “Trust me! I can cross my heart and swear that it’s true!”
“Protector Gu Yuan, please, leave. Goodbye!”
Gu Yuan stood there and stared at the most arrogant demon. He looked like he was thinking!
That demon was a Firefinch Demon. It had the most Phoenix blood in it. It would be a great ride once its Phoenix potential was awakened. It would be nice to give it to the expert!
Also, if the process of getting a ride was way too easy, it would show a lack of sincerity. Maybe the expert would be impressed if risks were taken!
He bit down. Time to go all out!
He raised his hand and pointed. His powers were extremely strong and the demons in the Above Immortal Realm were nothing compared to him. They could not resist it and immediately fainted.
Then, Gu Yuan grabbed the Firefinch Demon and left quietly in a flash.
At the four-part architecture.
“Daji, I’m coming down. Hold still.”
“Don’t worry, I’m standing by down here.”
“Okay!” Li Nianfan nodded and slowly descended the ladder from the rooftop.
He looked up at the lightning rod on the four-part architecture after he landed. He nodded satisfyingly and said, “Done. From now on, we have one less problem to worry about.”
“Nice work, Mr. Li,” said Daji while she carefully helped him wipe away his sweat.
Li Nianfan was in a good mood. He laughed and said, “The Clear Moon Lake is famous and not too far from here. How about we go swimming at the lake as a celebration?”
“Okay, I’ll follow you.”
