Chapter 395: Sending Banners is Fine, But Sending Slots? No Way.
Lan Xiaobu was ready to go all out.
Two peak Immortal Emperors dared to come and capture him and Gong Yunqi? The entire area was surrounded by his ninth-grade Void Entrapment and Killing Array.
If they dared to make the first move, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill.
Some things could be tolerated, but when it came to entering the Chaos Secret Realm, there was no room for compromise.
What Lan Xiaobu didn’t expect was that there was someone like Wu Qiancheng, an Immortal Court King, among them.
Because of Wu Qiancheng’s words, Shen Sen had no choice but to explain himself to everyone present.
For now, it was better not to reveal his Void Array techniques, as he would still need to compete for the Void Stones later.
Lan Xiaobu put away his Seven-Tone Halberd and clasped his hands in a salute to the crowd. “Esteemed Immortal Court Kings, I arrived in Jinyun Immortal City quite late, and all the inns were already full. I had no choice but to purchase a shop in a remote area to settle down. The shop is called Shuanghe Talisman Pavilion, and its previous owner was Yuan Shuanghe. Here is the deed of the property after our transaction.”
As he spoke, Lan Xiaobu waved his hand, and the property deed appeared in the air.
The deed clearly bore Lan Xiaobu’s name, and such a thing couldn’t be forged.
For a property deed to change ownership, the original owner’s consent was required.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to imprint one’s name on it.
The deed originally bore the name of Qiao Aomu, but since Qiao Aomu was also one of Lan Xiaobu’s aliases, changing the name was no trouble at all.
After everyone had a look at the deed, Lan Xiaobu put it away and continued, “Unexpectedly, the East District Supervisor of Jinyun Immortal City, Xi Chenshui, took a liking to my shop. He tried to forcibly evict us and even attempted to capture me. I’d like to ask, if this happened to any of you, what would you do?”
“I’d slap him to death,” one of the Immortal Emperors said coldly.
A mere district supervisor of an Immortal City, daring to seize the property of an Immortal Court King? Wasn’t that just asking for death?
Lan Xiaobu clasped his hands again. “This Immortal Court King is a straightforward person. That’s exactly what I did—I slapped him to death. But in some people’s mouths, I’ve become a villain who casually kills officials and seizes shops?”
“You’re just spinning your own tale…” Chang Qin started to speak, but he couldn’t finish his sentence.
Lan Xiaobu had already produced a crystal ball, and the images within showed that Lan Xiaobu hadn’t lied or exaggerated in the slightest.
It was Xi Chenshui who had brought people to seize Lan Xiaobu’s shop and had even attacked first, only to be killed by Gong Yunqi.
“Haha, I’ve truly witnessed the law enforcement and conduct of Qingfang Immortal Domain,” Mi Youlan chuckled, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
This time, the two Immortal Emperors beside him didn’t say a word.
Mi Youlan had already offended Qingfang Immortal Domain by siding with Lan Xiaobu earlier.
Since that was the case, they might as well fully support Lan Xiaobu now.
The two Immortal Emperors from the Four Emperors Palace knew exactly how capable Lan Xiaobu was.
When they saw two peak Immortal Emperors trying to deal with Lan Xiaobu earlier, they inwardly sneered.
Fortunately, no fight broke out.
If it had, Lan Xiaobu would have been fine, but those two Immortal Emperors would have been the ones to die.
Shen Sen, the Immortal Court King of Qingfang Immortal Domain, wanted to kill Chang Qin on the spot.
He glared at Chang Qin and said coldly, “Get out.”
“Yes…” Chang Qin slunk away, his heart filled with hatred for Xi Qiao.
If it weren’t for that guy, he wouldn’t have gotten involved in this mess.
Not only did he fail to secure a slot, but he also made a complete fool of himself.
“If this were my Moon Spirit Immortal Court, I’d have killed that trash on the spot,” Wu Qiancheng said, not giving Shen Sen any face.
Lan Xiaobu immediately chimed in, “Moon Spirit Emperor, your words resonate with me. If such an Immortal City Lord isn’t killed, he’ll only bring harm to others. Who knows, someone might feel wronged and chop off his head while passing by.”
A flash of killing intent appeared in Shen Sen’s eyes.
A mere minor Immortal Domain without even an Immortal Emperor, thinking that just because they’ve found an Immortal Emperor, they can act so arrogantly? He would make this so-called Five Realms Immortal Court King realize just how insignificant he was.
After Chang Qin left, the various sects, clans, and merchant groups also began to leave.
The grand hall, which had been filled with over six hundred people, was now down to half that number.
Once the hall quieted down again, Shen Sen suppressed his killing intent and spoke in a calmer tone, “Let’s continue with the previous topic. There are a total of one hundred and three Immortal Domains present here, and there are one thousand and eighty slots to enter the Chaos Secret Realm. How should we allocate them?”
A fair-skinned Immortal Court King stood up. “I am Ji Muyong, Immortal Court King of Qianyan Immortal Domain. I greet the Qingfang Emperor and all the Immortal Court Kings present. I propose that since the Chaos Secret Realm was discovered by Qingfang Immortal Domain, we should first allocate fifty slots to Qingfang Immortal Domain. The remaining slots can then be distributed according to the rules.”
No one objected.
It seemed that allocating fifty slots to Qingfang Immortal Domain first was something everyone tacitly agreed upon.
Lan Xiaobu had heard about this from Mou Yichen earlier and hadn’t had any objections at the time.
But that was before.
Now, he wasn’t going to let it slide.
If Qingfang Immortal Domain had played fair and not tried to scheme against him, he wouldn’t have cared about those fifty slots.
Two slots would have been enough for him.
But since Qingfang Immortal Domain had tried to pull a fast one, he wasn’t going to be polite.
“Haha, I think Qianyan King’s words are quite insulting,” Lan Xiaobu laughed.
Insulting? Everyone turned to look at Lan Xiaobu.
Calling Qianyan Emperor “Qianyan King” was the real insult, wasn’t it?
Lan Xiaobu continued seriously, “Qingfang Immortal Domain discovered the Chaos Secret Realm and shared this information with the entire Immortal Domain. This is an act of selfless dedication for the benefit of the entire Immortal World. But by saying what you just did, aren’t you implying that Qingfang Immortal Domain is only after a few slots? Everyone can send banners and merit tablets to Qingfang Immortal Domain, but sending slots? That’s just insulting. If that’s not an insult, then what is?”
Shen Sen was furious.
No matter how much Lan Xiaobu tried to twist his words, those fifty extra slots were going to Qingfang Immortal Domain.
He was about to speak up and declare that the fifty slots weren’t a gift but something he was taking by right.
There was no shame in that.
But before he could say anything, Lan Xiaobu’s tone shifted. “Besides, even if Qingfang King himself asked for those fifty slots, I wouldn’t agree. This isn’t just any ordinary matter—it’s about the survival of each Immortal Domain. If you say you want it and it’s given, then what’s the point of us sitting here to allocate the slots? Allocation should be fair and just, not based on who asks for it. No matter how important you think you are, you only represent your own Immortal Domain, not anyone else’s. If you want to curry favor with Qingfang Immortal Domain, you can give up your own slots. I have no problem with that. But don’t be generous with someone else’s slots. That’s just laughable.”
As he spoke, Lan Xiaobu couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.
Why would Qingfang Immortal Domain reveal the existence of such a secret realm? Given their nature, Lan Xiaobu didn’t believe for a second that they were doing it for the greater good of the Immortal World.
Lan Xiaobu’s words effectively shut down any further argument from Shen Sen.
No matter how angry Shen Sen was, he couldn’t continue pushing for the fifty slots.
This wave of fury burned inside him, almost making him lose control.
This wasn’t about saving face anymore—it was about the fact that Lan Xiaobu simply wouldn’t agree to giving Qingfang Immortal Domain the slots first.
“You, a mere Five Realms Immortal Domain, have no right to speak on this matter,” Ji Muyong said coldly.
“I am Tu Jing, Immortal Court King of Qiongxing Immortal Domain. I greet all the Immortal Court Kings present. I support Five Realms King’s opinion. These slots are related to the survival of our Immortal Domains. If we’re going to allocate them, it must be done fairly.” Before Lan Xiaobu could respond, someone else had already stepped forward to support him.
As soon as Tu Jing finished speaking, Chang Chenxuan, the Immortal Court King of Baikun Immortal Domain, added, “I think Five Realms King’s words are completely reasonable. When the Chaos Secret Realm was discovered, there were twelve people present, and not all of them were from Qingfang Immortal Domain. There were also cultivators from Weixing Immortal Domain and my Baikun Immortal Domain. If we follow your logic, shouldn’t my Baikun Immortal Domain also get an extra fifty slots?”
Lan Xiaobu finally understood.
So the Chaos Secret Realm wasn’t discovered solely by Qingfang Immortal Domain’s cultivators.
As expected, once Chang Chenxuan said this, almost all the Immortal Court Kings in the hall stood up to support Lan Xiaobu’s stance.
Who in their right mind would agree to set aside one or two hundred slots before the Chaos Secret Realm had even opened?
At this point, Shen Sen truly wanted to kill Chang Qin.
If it weren’t for that idiot, the fifty slots would have been tacitly agreed upon by everyone.
But now, because they’d offended Lan Xiaobu, this guy didn’t care about his own future or life and had become the vanguard for the other Immortal Domains.
Even if Shen Sen killed Lan Xiaobu later, it was already too late.
“Five Realms King, since you’re against this and that, do you have a better allocation plan?” Shen Sen asked, his tone softening.
Despite his desire to tear Lan Xiaobu to pieces on the spot, he knew he couldn’t do anything to him here.
Lan Xiaobu said indifferently, “I have two proposals for everyone to consider. The first is to stick to the original method. Our Immortal World has a total of one hundred and eight Immortal Domains, and there are exactly one thousand and eighty slots. Each Immortal Domain gets ten slots—fair and just. As for the Immortal Domains that didn’t show up, their slots will be held in reserve. If there’s still no news from them one month before the Chaos Secret Realm opens, their slots will be publicly auctioned, and the proceeds will be evenly distributed among all the Immortal Domains.”
“That’s a good plan. I support it,” Mi Youlan once again voiced his support for Lan Xiaobu.
“What’s the second proposal?” Shen Sen asked.
He definitely wouldn’t agree to the first plan.
If everyone ended up with the same number of slots, what was the point of Qingfang Immortal Domain’s efforts?
Lan Xiaobu said, “The second proposal isn’t suitable, so I won’t mention it. Let’s stick to the first plan.”
Lan Xiaobu’s original second proposal was to allocate slots based on strength through combat.
Since it was Immortal Kings entering the secret realm, the competition would be among Immortal King-level cultivators.
The slots would first be allocated according to the first method, and then challenges would be issued.
The winner would take one slot from the loser.
The reason he decided not to mention this plan was that he felt it was too ruthless.
In such a competition, only the living could win, and the losers would inevitably die.
Not only would it make enemies, but it would also allow the stronger Immortal Domains to gain more slots, which wouldn’t benefit him at all.
A man in a green robe stood up and said, “I am Bai Xun, Immortal Court King of Weixing Immortal Domain. I have a better proposal that will satisfy everyone.”
