Chapter 746: Chapter 535: Commendation and Reward (Part 2)

From the window of the Cloud Chariot, the beaded curtain was pulled open slightly, and the envoy casually looked outside. He saw thick mist rising in the mountains, and a radiant glow spreading everywhere. The mist-covered icy walls reflected the sunlight, producing a colorful brilliance, creating a magnificent, dreamlike scene.

Noticing the envoy’s actions, Lu Qian smiled and said, "I hope the Upper Envoy will not mind. Our sect was recently threatened by a powerful enemy, and most of the buildings in the mountains have been destroyed and appear quite unsightly. Therefore, I have used a clever trick to build numerous Fengya Walls with ice to cover up the ugliness."

The envoy inside the Cloud Chariot seemed quite pleased and let out a laugh, "Fengya Walls... Sect Leader Lu is quite thoughtful."

The Dragon Steed Cloud Chariot smoothly stopped in front of the main hall. At this moment, the Spiritual Qi of Minglong Mountain’s Spirit Vein had been guided by an array, all flowing into the hall, and the Spiritual Mist washed back and forth, painting a picture of Immortal Family scenery.

The jade curtain of the Cloud Chariot was slowly lifted, and the Feathered Scholar driving the chariot loudly announced, "Xuanwei Sect’s Provincial Envoy, Master Ling Xuan lawfully visits Yun Mountain!"

Master Ling Xuan... Golden Core Perfection!

Lu Qian and the others only felt dazzled as the radiant Fairy slowly emerged from the Cloud Chariot.

The first thing that caught everyone’s attention was her exquisitely adorned long robe, decorated with magnificent jewels. The skirt’s train extended a full ten feet behind, with tassels and embroidery being extremely exquisite and subtly glowing with talismanic radiance.

The next thing was her carefully styled hair, intricately arranged into a Morning Cloud Near-Fragrance Bun, with a slanted step-shaking hairpin inserted, appearing opulent and noble, exuding an overwhelming aura of grandeur.

If a person of ordinary appearance wore such a robe and sported such a hairstyle, it would inevitably seem garish and vulgar. But Master Ling Xuan was radiant in appearance, naturally noble in demeanor, her features deep and refined, unlike the petite and delicate features of ordinary women, perfectly complementing the lavish robe and luxurious ornaments.

A Fairy who pays attention to pomp and extravagance...

Lu Qian quickly glanced over and suddenly froze.

Wait a minute... on that fair, delicate neck, there was... an Adam’s apple?!

His gaze slid further down, and he noticed Master Ling Xuan’s flat chest, with no sign of undulation. Lu Qian felt like a thunderstorm was rolling through his heart.

What... terrifyingly impressive, a cross-dressing master!

But no matter what, this was just Master Ling Xuan’s personal preference, and it wasn’t for others to comment on. Even leaving aside his identity as Xuanwei Sect’s envoy, his Golden Core Perfection Cultivation alone was enough to silence any whispers.

In an instant, Lu Qian composed himself, and together with Wu Yan, stepped forward for formal greetings.

"Yunshan Sect Leader Lu Qian, greets Master Ling Xuan."

"Yushan Disciple Wu Yan, greets Master Ling Xuan."

Master Ling Xuan nodded slightly, his voice soft and melodious, "Both fellow Daoists are too polite. Today, I come on a mission, and I apologize for any inconvenience."

Lu Qian smiled and said, "The visit of the Upper Envoy brings great honor to our humble sect. It is hardly an inconvenience. Please, Upper Envoy, come inside and take a brief rest."

Master Ling Xuan ceased any formalities, taking in the scene as the Spiritual Mist spread around the great hall, radiating a rainbow glow under the sunlight. He felt delighted, gave a slight smile, and gracefully entered the hall.

His steps were elegant as his skirt gracefully swept the floor, appearing noble and gracious, yet he was unmistakably a man...

Suppressing the jumbled thoughts, Lu Qian led the way. The grand hall of Minglong Mountain had an originally magnificent style, but without excessive embellishment. Now that Master Ling Xuan arrived at the entrance, Lu Qian realized his taste, yet couldn’t change much in a short time, only wrapping pillars and beams meticulously with radiant silk to add a touch of decoration.

Luckily, Master Ling Xuan didn’t nitpick, continuing forward, pausing briefly before the main seat.

This main seat had been previously used by Lu Qian and was merely taller, broader, unadorned. Seeing him frown slightly, Lu Qian was about to explain when two Foundation Establishment disciples quickly hurried from behind, with a flick of their hands, spreading out a pure white fox fur sparkling with gentle white light, neatly covering the seat.

Only then did Master Ling Xuan sit down, nodding to Lu Qian.

Lu Qian felt a twitch in his heart, yet maintained a radiant smile, sitting beside. Apart from Lu Qian and Wu Yan, all Yunshan Foundation Establishments awaited outside the hall.

Offering top-tier Spirit Tea from Meihua Square, Master Ling Xuan nodded slightly, elegantly taking a sip. After a few polite exchanges, he began to speak slowly, "Sect Leader Lu, my primary purpose here is on behalf of our sect’s supreme Miaomiao Profound Monarch, to express commendation and comfort."

Lu Qian responded quickly with modesty, to which Master Ling Xuan solemnly said, "This is the decree of the Profound Monarch."

Lu Qian immediately stood up with Wu Yan, adopting a posture of attentively listening.

"I am pleased to hear that Yunshan Sect Leader Lu Qian and disciple Wu Yan both succeeded in Crossing the Tribulation on the same day, attaining the Golden Core, adding talent to our state. Within a day, master and disciple both ascended to the rank of Zhenren, creating a tale of renown."

"Moreover, the Outer Province Nascent Soul, Qiming Spirit Monarch, lacking manners and failing to exercise restraint, illegally invaded, a grievous offense indeed. Fortunately, Sect Leader Lu and his disciple, braving the frost and snow, exhibited fearless valor, led the elite to vanquish him, projecting our power overseas, and inspiring hearts."

Such achievements, elevating our state externally and aiding us internally, eliminating danger and sharing concerns, naturally warrant commendation to inspire morale and bring stability to all directions. Let Yun Mountain from top to bottom unite in harmony, with Sect Leader Lu and disciple dedicating themselves further, striving for new accomplishments for our Cangzhou. These are orders!"

Lu Qian respectfully bowed deep, "To share the Profound Monarch’s burdens is indeed my duty, unworthy of such praise. The Profound Monarch’s decree is an eternal promise for me."

Master Ling Xuan then produced a colorful letter from his sleeve, which floated before Lu Qian.

"Sect Leader Lu, this is the Profound Monarch’s reward."

Lu Qian accepted the letter, and constrained by etiquette, merely glanced quickly, displaying appropriately rising excitement on his face.
