Chapter 1093 - 1092: Good-for-Nothing
Tang Rao only knows how to practice Alchemy, he can replicate ancient recipes left by predecessors, but when it comes to conducting independent research, Tang Rao admits he doesn't have that capability."Alright, I'll try my best."
They had not yet reached the Land of Immortals, but Chao Qi was already feeling the pressure.
Yan Wei's illness was mostly healed, yet Tang Rao had delayed matters on the Land of Immortals because he stayed too long on Blue Star.
Bidding farewell to Yan Wei, Tang Rao sent Chao Qi to the Seventy-two Domains of the Nine Realms, where they lingered briefly before the beam from the endless sea lifted Chao Qi to the Land of Immortals.
Every step was overseen by Tang Rao. He made an agreement with Chao Qi that upon exiting the Energy Circle, Chao Qi must not follow others and should wait for Tang Rao to arrive.
Chao Qi nodded repeatedly. Without knowing anyone up there, what if a stranger abducted him?
Tang Rao burned the talisman and in a blink arrived on Wasted Star, which took him only a breath from there to the Land of Immortals.
He was contemplating how every time he returned from Blue Star, he had to bring at least one person. Previously it was Tang Rao's own people, but this time it was someone from Yige.
If Yige, by chance, got sick and sought Chao Qi, only to find him taken by Tang Rao, wouldn't that be awkward for Yige?
"Here he comes, here he comes, another one has come up from below. It's been days since anyone arrived, I've got to grab this one."
Around the Energy Circle were quite a few people, and Tang Rao was one of them.
Hearing the people around him, he just smiled and did not reply.
"You say it's yours and it's yours? I'm saying this person is mine. Your sect is so bad, trying to compete with us, you're still way too green."
One man might have come from a better sect than the last speaker; his words immediately silenced the previous person.
"Hahaha, a transparent Energy Circle. Fighting to the death over a sheer waste of a transparent Energy Circle. I'm dying of laughter here."
There were more people enjoying the spectacle than those actually working on anything.
"I'm just arguing. Never said I'd absolutely choose him. If I don't choose, then I don't. Old Six, hasn't your sect lacked new members for a while? Take this good-for-nothing back with you, add some fresh blood."
Has he been rejected and now pushed onto him?
Old Six wasn't stupid. While their sect was low on numbers, they weren't desperate enough to take even the transparent Energy Circle people. Orıginal content can be found at N0velFire.ɴet
Chao Qi fell out from the Energy Circle, and everyone burst into laughter.
"Look at this little transparent one, truly handsome, don't know which sect will have the fortune to take you back."
People around seemed uninterested, while Chao Qi didn't even know what happened, why people were looking at him so strangely.
"Chao Qi, over here."
Tang Rao waved to Chao Qi from within the crowd.
Chao Qi finally saw Tang Rao through the gathering mass.
"My idol Tang Rao, there's so many people here. Are they all here to greet me?"
The truth is that Chao Qi simply overthought it.
"They were here to welcome you, but not anymore."
Chao Qi hadn't grasped Tang Rao's meaning. Tang Rao felt no need to explain; better to avoid needless hurt.
"Hey, someone took that useless one, and it's Tang Rao? Wait, why is it Kao Shan Sect's Tang Rao?"
The crowd realized it as Tang Rao summoned the Nine Cauldron Snow Beast to take Tang Rao and Chao Qi away.
"How could we forget, Tang Rao was also from a transparent Energy Circle back in the day, yet now he's a star figure in the Land of Immortals, his power formidable enough to incite everyone's fear. Do you think that newcomer would be like Tang Rao, a person hiding their true talent?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Chao Qi had been taken away, leaving only the chatter about him behind.
"Boss, I think I heard them talking about me earlier. What do you think they were saying?"
Chao Qi wasn't aware that he'd started calling Tang Rao "Boss" the moment he spoke, which was such a peculiar feeling.
"They said you're useless. When you exited the Energy Circle, it was transparent, indicating you were not seen as worthwhile. Isn't that delightful to hear?"
Knowing Tang Rao wouldn't lie, realizing this stirred Chao Qi to slap his own mouth harshly, cursing it for asking the question and for learning such unwelcome news.
"I think this place is great, if we developed it as a tourist attraction, business would surely flourish. Or maybe open an internet cafe for people to game online, this place lags far behind, not as good as Blue Star."
Chao Qi criticized the Land of Immortals from top to bottom, going as far as dreaming of setting up an internet cafe and attractions.
Brother, it's your first time visiting the Land of Immortals, so I won't blame you. Speak wildly if you will, but don't be a spendthrift; I'd be the first to oppose if you wanted to blow money on such projects.
In the Land of Immortals, a minute can bring devastation and terror, erasing anything you painstakingly build overnight.
"Stay in the Land of Immortals for a year, then explore these fanciful ideas. First, I'll take you to get familiar with Kao Shan Sect."
The Kao Shan Sect was right beneath them.
The Nine Cauldron Snow Beast swiftly landed within Kao Shan Sect.
"With this misty aura, it's clearly an extraordinary place, if I could live here forever, I'd be willing to die for it."
Tang Rao realized he couldn't have extended interactions with Chao Qi; he's more than just a doctor. Apart from in the operating room when serious, Tang Rao couldn't see any trace of that gracefully refined demeanor belonging to a doctor in Chao Qi.
"You're welcome to live here for a lifetime, or even two or three, as long as it pleases you."
Once Tang Rao ascends to the Divine Realm, by then the entire Kao Shan Sect is theirs, so where would they fear lacking a place to stay?
"No, boss, something's off."
Tang Rao was walking ahead, as Chao Qi followed behind, muttering things that nearly scared Tang Rao.
"What's off?"
"Your expression is off. Why do I feel you've deceived me to come here when you show zero attachment to this place? I have a bad feeling."
Chao Qi spoke his mind, even if it risked offending Tang Rao, he had to voice it.
"I'm someone who's soon heading to the Divine Realm. The future of Kao Shan Sect belongs to you anyway, so what attachment should I harbor?"
Divine Realm?
What is this about?
It turns out Tang Rao only takes Chao Qi to the Seventy-two Domains of the Nine Realms, where he first saw that world. Then Tang Rao brought Chao Qi to the Land of Immortals, opening a new gateway of experience, just to now talk about heading to the Divine Realm.
Isn't Tang Rao's guardianship over Chao Qi a tad excessive?
"Rest assured, the Kao Shan Sect is quite impressive around the Land of Immortals. No ordinary sect would dare pick on us here, so live at ease with our protection."
In that way, Chao Qi could focus on studying the Longevity Elixir.
"So will you also take me to see the Divine Realm?"
