I Am A Dignified Immortal Emperor, But The Sect Actually Let Me Marry

The next day.

The morning light scattered in every corner, pulling Extreme Emptiness out of the quiet river.

In a short period of time, a piece of news spread widely in Extreme Emptiness, and all the cultivators were boiling.

"Extra! Extra!"

"Yesterday, Saint Child Wei Yunzheng had a private meeting with Jade Maiden Peak's Mu Yao, and when Perfected Being Yun Qing found out, he expelled Wei Yunzheng from Saint Maiden Peak and punished Mu Yao with thirty days of wall-facing!"

"Is it true?!"

"It's absolutely true. There have been rumors about their improper relationship before, and now it's finally confirmed!"

Voices echoed one after another in Extreme Emptiness.

"Did you hear? Last night, Saint Child and Mu Yao actually turned a blind eye to the consequences and provoked the anger of Elder Yun Qing!"

"This is definitely true. I heard it from someone close to Jade Maiden Peak, who saw it with her own eyes!"

"Saint Child not only has reached the peak of cultivation, but also handles things without any hesitation. He is truly a role model!"

"Big news, do you know why Mu Yao was punished with thirty days of wall-facing?"

"It's because she had a secret relationship with Saint Child and is carrying his child!"

"What?!!"

"I heard this news from an elder of Jade Maiden Peak. It must not be spread recklessly. This matter is of great importance and involves the reputation of both peaks!"

"Hiss! I think this is just a rumor. How could Saint Child and Mu Yao have a three-year-old child without being discovered by so many eyes in Extreme Emptiness?!"

"But if there are higher-ups helping to cover it up, it's not impossible for it to remain undiscovered."

"Oh my god, there are rumors that the Sect Assembly will not only appoint Saint Child, but also marry Saint Child and Mu Yao!"

"Brother, your information is outdated!"

"My peak's leader said that the Saint Child appointed at the Sect Assembly is not Wei Yunzheng, but their child with Mu Yao!"

Rumors spread rapidly throughout the entire realm of Extreme Emptiness.

The cultivators of each peak were in an uproar, especially the male cultivators, many of whom were grinding their teeth in anger.

Meanwhile.

Extreme Emptiness Palace.

Wei Yunzheng sat there with a worried expression, sighing from time to time... What should he do now?

Mu Yao, his junior sister, was being punished with wall-facing and could no longer be his strong support. Now he could only face Xiang Wencheng alone.

Rumors about him and Mu Yao were spreading like wildfire outside, and it seemed to generate more heat than Xiang Wencheng challenging him at the Sect Assembly.

Compared to fighting and killing, the audience for gossip was much broader.

"Yun Zheng! Yun Zheng!"

Perfected Being Sheng Xu hurriedly walked into Extreme Emptiness Palace, completely different from his usual dignified and elegant demeanor, looking visibly exhausted.

"Master, I am innocent!"

Wei Yunzheng quickly went up to greet him. Without much thought, he could guess that Perfected Being Yun Qing had definitely come to settle the score with his master last night.

That's why his master looked so disheveled now.

Perfected Being Sheng Xu grabbed Wei Yunzheng's hand and said with great seriousness, "Yun Zheng, as your master, I know your character. You are a child who acts with integrity and never crosses the line."

"Last night, Perfected Being Yun Qing kept accusing you of tarnishing her disciple's innocence. It's clearly defamation and slander. I can sue her for defamation!"

"Now there are rumors spreading in Extreme Emptiness, which damage your reputation."

"But Yun Zheng, you can rest assured that your master will help you seek justice!"

After speaking, Perfected Being Sheng Xu pushed Wei Yunzheng away and hurriedly walked towards the back, searching through the desk.

"Master?"

"What are you doing?"

Wei Yunzheng was surprised and asked. Perfected Being Sheng Xu's behavior was somewhat unusual, as if there was a fire in the backyard.

"Found it!"

After searching through the desk, Perfected Being Sheng Xu took out a book and hid it in his arms. Then he turned to Wei Yunzheng and said, "Yun Zheng, I have recently had a feeling that I am getting closer to the Great Dao. I'm going to travel for a few days."

"On the day of the sect's grand meeting, the master will return!"

After saying this, he hurriedly walked out of the Extreme Emptiness Hall!

Boom!

Suddenly, a broad sword aura exploded in the sky, smashing towards Perfected Being Sheng Xu like thunder.

Perfected Being Sheng Xu was greatly shocked and dodged the attack of the sword aura, transforming into a streak of light and fleeing far away.

In the distance, Perfected Being Yun Qing approached with a sword, glanced at Wei Yunzheng, and looked towards the direction Perfected Being Sheng Xu was escaping, disdainfully saying,

"Sheng Xu, if you are still a man, don't run away today."

"When you pulled up your pants and ran away back then, I didn't make a big deal out of it."

"Now the disciples you've taught are just as shameless as you, doing the same despicable things!"

"If I were to teach Wei Yunzheng a lesson, it would seem like I'm bullying the weak. Teaching you, on the other hand, is just right!"

"Today, we settle both new and old debts together!"

After saying this, Perfected Being Yun Qing waved several sword auras that were as graceful as startled swans, then performed a secret technique, his figure ethereal, and chased after Perfected Being Sheng Xu's escape route.

Wei Yunzheng stared dumbfounded at this scene.

So it turns out that Perfected Being Yun Qing was so angry last night because he had been taken advantage of by his master when he was young.

His master must have been extraordinary when he was young.

He looked sadly at the sky.

There was one more thing that puzzled him.

Why did his master take the book "Jin Ping Mei" when he ran away?

...

In the following days, Extreme Emptiness rarely calmed down.

Wei Yunzheng did not step out of the Extreme Emptiness Palace again.

He deliberately put Xiang Wencheng's matter behind him and stopped thinking about it.

Instead, he immersed himself in the study of the alchemy scriptures and formulas sent by Zhou Chouchou.

"How Good Pills Are Cultivated"

"I Learned Alchemy in a Mental Hospital"

"The Celestial Master's Dragon Seeking Alchemy Technique"

"Starting by Selling Blood to Learn Alchemy"

These books recorded some basic knowledge about alchemy.

For example, the preparations needed before alchemy, the taboos during alchemy, and even how to cultivate the professional ethics of an alchemist.

At first, these books seemed obscure and difficult to understand, but once he became immersed in them, Wei Yunzheng found himself becoming more and more interested in alchemy.

Alchemy was not simply about lighting a fire and throwing in medicinal ingredients. It was more about the fusion of the characteristics between different medicinal ingredients.

A good alchemical formula was one that perfectly brought out the unique properties of various medicinal pills while also having compatibility, resulting in the emergence of new characteristics.

There was a wonderful feeling of turning decay into magic.

Moreover, the knowledge of alchemy was vast and diverse.

Not to mention the tens of thousands of different medicinal pills that needed to be familiarized with, even to become a good alchemist, one had to deeply remember some practical theoretical knowledge.

Like this.

Wei Yunzheng completely immersed himself in it.

He wasn't in a hurry to practice alchemy. After all, there was no rush. He had to first grasp the theoretical knowledge in order to know what to do in practice.

Time flowed like water.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the sect's grand meeting.

Early in the morning, Zhou Chouchou arrived at the Extreme Emptiness Palace.

"Senior Brother, today is an important day for you.

You are the pride of Extreme Emptiness. Hurry up and change into the clothes that the Saint Child should wear. I will explain the process to you again."

Wei Yunzheng lifted his head from the pile of books.

His expression was absent-minded, and it took him a while to remember what day it was today.

When he came back to his senses, Zhou Chouchou had already placed the clothes he had previously sent on the table.
