The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1095 - 1094: Farewell

"No, I'm not awake, I'm still living in a dream, don't believe in your current illusion."Jixing had to believe Tang Rao's words for there to be a ghost.

"Then you're talking to me with your illusion; didn't you promise me that you'd go to the Divine Realm?"

Jixing clutched its chest; this was its only hope. Its wish for Tang Rao to ascend to the Land of Immortals was a hundred times stronger than Tang Rao's own.

"When did I ever say I'd go? I've told you before, you're very prone to having illusions during this period."

No, it's not an illusion, just like how Jixing now had a feeling of wanting to die, this feeling was very real.

"You're absolutely joking with me. Master, don't scare me, I could really die."

The blue smoke Jixing transformed into surrounded Tang Rao completely.

"I'll go with you once I finish forming the alliance during this time."

Jixing was as if granted amnesty; it had been waiting for these words from Tang Rao.

"Master Tang Rao, remember what you said today, don't agitate me again."

Jixing was grateful it descended at just the right time; it encountered the opportunity to go to the Divine Realm in less than two months, which was much luckier compared to the years it spent in the Land of Immortals previously.

"We'll see how I feel. If I'm in a good mood, I'll give you face."

At least when Tang Rao's alliance stabilizes, his presence wouldn't make much of a difference besides being a deterrent.

Under Jixing's watchful eyes, Tang Rao found Uncle Zhou and released the Hellfire Shark, wishing to discuss something with it.

Uncle Zhou sat upright, already anticipating the topic Tang Rao would bring up, though he wasn't sure if it would be good or bad.

"Uncle Zhou, Baby Fire Shark, now that I've found you both, I suppose you know what I want to talk about?"

"Is it about the Divine Realm?"

Baby Fire Shark and Uncle Zhou said in unison.

"Yes, I've thought for several days now and decided to take Baby Fire Shark up first. Uncle Zhou, you aren't as powerful as me, and if I can't protect myself up there, then you certainly can't."

The Hellfire Shark danced with excitement in front of Tang Rao and Uncle Zhou.

Tang Rao, you're the best friend in the world. I thought I'd never be able to go up, yet now there's a chance.

With the Hellfire Shark's wish fulfilled, Uncle Zhou felt downcast. He understood that what Tang Rao said made sense, but he had desired to go to the Divine Realm for so many years. If not this time, who knows when the next opportunity would arise.

"Tang Rao, can you take me up? I truly want to see it."

Even if it meant dying, he accepted that.

He had been prepared for this possibility since he began preparing to go up.

"No, I can't let those around me follow me to their deaths. If I manage to establish myself up there, the first thing I'll do is come back for you. How does that sound?"

Tang Rao provided the best suggestion possible.

"I promise, it won't take more than a year."

Uncle Zhou thought to himself that a year wasn't too long; waiting wouldn't be much of an issue.

Helplessly, he spread his hands: "Alright, then I'll wait for another year."

Whether Tang Rao could ascend to the Land of Immortals was still an unknown, but having someone ahead as an example provided reassurance to those who followed.

Seven days later, the weather turned especially cold, freezing not just the fearless people and immortal beasts in the Land of Immortals but making them shiver.

Tang Rao sat at the front of the hall, the fire in the room burning brightly.

"Brothers of the Kao Shan Sect, I've gathered everyone today to provide you with a chance to make a new choice. I'm about to head to the Divine Realm. The Kao Shan Sect will be without a Sect Master, so we need to choose a temporary acting Sect Master with equivalent authority as mine. The Sect Master belongs to everyone, and today there are names listed as options. I urge you to vote and prioritize your own interests."

Tang Rao's words broke everyone's silence.

Previously, the Sect Master seemed intent on forming an alliance. Who would've thought the alliance barely took shape before Tang Rao was set to leave?

Even leaving without time for wife and kids? Really?

"Sect Master, the Kao Shan Sect's greatness is all thanks to you; who else would deserve the title of Sect Master besides you?" The source of thɪs content is novel{f}ire.net

There were many voices of protest; Tang Rao couldn't identify who spoke first.

"There are several just in my knowledge. Besides me, each of you has a vote. Once you've decided, write down the name on paper and place it in the box."

Tang Rao wasn't seeking opinions; he was there to make a decision.

"Alright then."

Those who got the paper wrote names and cast their votes; the name with the most votes would win.

Tang Rao expected the acting Sect Master to be Xiao Yue, but surprisingly, it turned out to be Chen Tuan.

So be it. With the relationship between Chen Tuan and Tang Rao, entrusting the entire Kao Shan Sect to him was reassuring for Tang Rao's journey to the Divine Realm.

"Acting Sect Master Chen Tuan, as the Grandmaster of Sect Master Tang Rao, this title is well-deserved. We are convinced."

Those tallying votes for Tang Rao replied.

"Indeed, Chen Tuan as Sect Master will certainly continue to expand the Kao Shan Sect."

Tang Rao didn't see a hint of disappointment on Xiao Yue's face, but rather sincere blessings for Chen Tuan, a rare openness these days.

"Grandmaster, I am entrusting the Kao Shan Sect to you from now on."

Tang Rao sincerely thanked Chen Tuan.

"Since you trust me so much, I'll keep watch over the yard, but you better come back soon; many in the Kao Shan Sect are waiting on you to take them to the Divine Realm."

Chen Tuan was among those waiting.

"Grandmaster, once I've promised, I'll make sure it happens. Within the year, expect good news."

Tang Rao concluded all business, bearing everyone's expectations, and after kissing each wife's face twice, chose to leave.

Leaving the Kao Shan Sect, Jixing led Tang Rao to a remote place. Going any further, Tang Rao might suspect Jixing was leading him to a scam lair.

"Don't overthink it; I'm just taking you to the passage back."

Tang Rao gave Jixing a sidelong glance; he knew, after all. Were they going this far for a stroll?

"This place sure is far. If we don't arrive soon, I might want to reconsider."

Tang Rao walked on while creating a fuss, using the method to distract himself.

He left so many wives, big and small, in the Land of Immortals. Earlier, while bidding them goodbye, tears nearly came.

"Come on, we agreed to this, didn't we? Bailing now would be a joke."

Jixing wandered quickly, and as Tang Rao anticipated complex procedures for the Divine Realm, the Transmission Array to it suddenly appeared.

The Array was already activated as if waiting. Once opened, Jixing could drag Tang Rao in. It pulled him into it, leaving no time for farewells to the Land of Immortals.
