Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 703 - 481: Visit to Patriarch Hong [Daily]

The Eastern Wilderness of the Divine Continent had just been established. The various sects under the Sect Alliance began to rebuild and even competed to carve out their own territories.

The Mythical Sound Pavilion occupied the former capital of the Daxuan Dynasty. It even spread towards the surrounding states and counties, becoming the nominal ruler of the Eastern Wilderness of the Divine Continent and regarded as the most sought-after Holy Land of the Human Race today!

The Dragon Flame Sect and the Wu Earth Sect returned to their ancestral Tao heritage lands to start rebuilding.

As for the Qinglu Taoist Temple, its Tao heritage was preserved quite intact, second only to the Phoenix Creek Sect. It was busily establishing Taoist temples among various high mountains and great rivers to compete for worldly incense offerings.

And the Phoenix Creek Sect...

Because the Phoenix Creek Sect contributed the most in the Battle for Destiny, it not only had heroes like Long Zhandu and Lin Bu Jing, but also, and most crucially, Hong Yuan's unwavering support!

Therefore, in the subsequent division and carving up of the Eastern Wilderness of the Divine Continent's territory, it was second only to the Mythical Sound Pavilion.

Moreover, because of Hong Yuan's presence, the Rainbow Fire Peak Lineage greatly benefited, its status soaring, even earning the title of the Phoenix Creek Sect's hidden Sect Master lineage.

...

The sky was overcast and dim.

The continuous light rain pitter-pattered, striking the eaves, sliding onto the bluestone floor, and splashing onto the wooden plank marked with "Big Bull Tavern."

Inside the Big Bull Tavern, patrons filled the hall, and the din of voices was deafening.

It was the peak time for lunch, and the place was bustling. The gloomy drizzle outside only caused more people to gather.

After all, not every Martial Artist possessed enough True Essence to repel water from their bodies.

"Damn it! That Le Yilong and Zhu Wu just have good family backgrounds, and they look down on us like this."

"These damned cultivation families are simply parasites within our Phoenix Creek Sect. They so easily control the various checkpoints; it's like they're just lying there raking in tons of Energy Stones!"

"The Lin Family, the Zhu Family, and the Le Family... Sigh, if only I could marry a woman from one of these three families, I could avoid thirty years of struggle."

"Pah! Tianhe, I never thought a proper man like you, eight feet tall, could be so spineless."

"What do the Lin, Zhu, and Le families amount to? If we could enter Rainbow Fire Peak, or even become 'that person's' disciple, that would truly mean ascending to the heavens in one step..."

Mentioning "that person" from Rainbow Fire Peak, the group of formal disciples dining together quieted down.

They exchanged glances, and no one dared to speak loudly anymore.

Discussing the Lin, Zhu, and Le families was one thing. After all, who in the Phoenix Creek Sect didn't harbor envy, jealousy, and resentment towards these three families, believing they were merely coasting on their ancestors' fortune and legacy, amounting to nothing themselves. Slandering these three families behind their backs had become a kind of political correctness within the Phoenix Creek Sect.

But if someone truly dared to talk ill of 'that person' from Rainbow Fire Peak, it would be tantamount to seeking death!

If not for 'that person' taking action, the Phoenix Creek Sect would likely have been reduced to ashes in the Battle for Destiny. Moreover, that person was already regarded as the Right Way Leader.

To speak against him was simply seeking death!

"Hong... uh—"

A naive and inexperienced formal disciple, unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, subconsciously began to utter that person's name.

In an instant, everyone turned pale with shock, their bodies trembling.

Bro, if you're determined to die, don't drag us down with you! What did we ever do to deserve this?

With a resounding SMACK, the leader among this group of formal disciples reacted with unprecedented speed, slapping the naive formal disciple's mouth so hard it swelled, forcing him to shut up.

"To hell with you! If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!"

"Yue, if you don't know how to talk, then just keep your mouth shut!"

"Cough, cough, let's eat, let's eat. No more talking, everyone just eat."

People glared angrily at Yue.

After a moment, one formal disciple made an excuse and left.

Thereafter, the formal disciples left the Big Bull Tavern one after another in quick succession, even as the light drizzle outside turned into a torrential downpour.

Before long, only Yue remained alone in that private room of the tavern.

Yue clutched his swollen right cheek, seething with indignation.

Even then, he still didn't understand why he couldn't directly say that "that person" was Hong Yuan.

...

The Eastern Wilderness of the Divine Continent had just recovered from the ravages of war and returned to tranquility. Almost every sect was busy, and the Phoenix Creek Sect was no exception.

On Rainbow Fire Peak.

After Shang Yaoqin took away a reluctant Ye Zhuyin, Lin Yiru and Mo Yue'er also became busy with the numerous affairs of the sect.

After all, of the two, one was an Elder of the Elixir Refining Hall, and the other was an Elder of the Spirit Beast Hall.

Besides their high positions and significant power, they also had their own careers to attend to, and they had achieved remarkable success in their respective fields.

For instance, Lin Yiru improved the Heart Cleansing Pill and the Shallow Dream Pill, benefiting numerous low-level cultivators.

Similarly, Mo Yue'er shared her concepts on combined attack methods for Fire Tao and Water Tao spirit beasts, sparking a trend among the beast tamers within the Phoenix Creek Sect.

Both were regarded as role models by female cultivators within and outside the Phoenix Creek Sect, who strove to emulate them. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Actually, Hong Yuan had considered letting them take on sinecures.

But seeing the genuine smiles on their faces while they worked, Hong Yuan gradually dismissed the idea.

He had promised his master and senior brother he would look after the two women in this life, but he had no intention of imprisoning them or treating them like caged canaries.

That would be entirely unnecessary.

As one pursuing immortality, Hong Yuan possessed ample patience.

However, as a precaution, Hong Yuan had still left protective measures on both women to ensure their safety.

"Busy, everyone is busy. It's good to be busy..."
