Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 414 Journey Through the Eastern Wilderness, Free-spirited and Sincere

The Queen Mother of the West invited Wang Teng, the topic of which was the Peach Banquet that Wang Teng had been thinking about not long ago.

Moreover, this time, Wang Teng wasn't the only one invited.

Besides Wang Teng, there were also some other holy sect leaders, such as the Holy Master of the Jiang family, the Holy Master of the Ji family, the Master of Tai Xuan, and that old man from the Yin-Yang Sect of Zhongzhou.

After the God King's wedding, some people did not rush to leave. They remained in the Eastern Wilderness, wanting to see what kind of land and water could nurture a genius like Wang Teng.

That's why Wang Teng saw so many people this time.

When they saw Wang Teng, all the cult leaders stood up to greet him.

Although Wang Teng is from the younger generation, his strength is undeniable, and no one really treats him as just another member of the younger generation.

"This little girl is so cute. She reminds me of my great-granddaughter. It's fate that we met. I have some little things here that I'll give to you."

The old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect smiled and took out a small, exquisite-looking octagonal divination tablet, intending to give it to the little girl as a gift.

Wang Teng knew at a glance that this little gossip was no ordinary item. It could calm the mind and aid in cultivation, and it could also resist attacks from powerful beings. Even in the hands of a powerful being, it would be considered an extraordinary treasure. Even if he didn't need it himself, he would bestow it upon his most beloved descendant.

But the old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect actually gave this thing away directly...

If Wang Teng remembered correctly, this old guy seemed to make things difficult for Xiao Nannan in the original work. In order to force Ye Fan to give in, he even imprisoned Xiao Nannan and did not even give face to the Queen Mother of the West of Yaochi.

But now, this guy is smiling so kindly. Even though he doesn't know the relationship between Wang Teng and Xiao Nannan, when he sees Xiao Nannan, he is as enthusiastic as if he has seen his own granddaughter, and his face is full of wrinkles from smiling.

The difference before and after is too great.

Wang Teng didn't make things too difficult for the old man. Whether he lived or died, whether he was in his previous life or this one, as long as the old man didn't cause too much trouble in front of him and interfere with his affairs, then he didn't care what the old man did.

Of course, you shouldn't refuse something that's offered to you for free.

Although neither I nor my little girl need it, it's good as a toy for her. The little mirror that lights up will keep her entertained for a while.

"Then thank you very much, senior." Wang Teng chuckled.

The little girl obediently held Wang Teng's hand, looking at the little gossip in front of her with curiosity in her eyes.

Wang Teng reached out, took the small gossip, and handed it to the little girl.

"Hahaha, I'm glad you like it, young friend." The old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect said with a smile, appearing very kind and approachable.

If you hadn't read the original novel, who would have thought this guy was so ruthless?
However, you can't reach this level if you're not ruthless enough.

Wang Teng is different. The power behind him is unparalleled in the entire world of Shrouding the Heavens, capable of crushing all other forces and strong individuals. Such a background is enough to make him a romantic, without having to worry about things like scheming or ruthlessness.

Seeing this, the other cult leaders were also tempted to give something to the little girl.

Although the exact relationship between the little girl and Wang Teng is unknown, judging from her behavior of taking him everywhere, their relationship is definitely not bad!
"Ahem, does the Queen Mother of the West summon me here because of something important?" Wang Teng asked, taking the initiative to speak.

If we wait for these old cult leaders and holy masters to give gifts here, who knows how long it will take?

Moreover, since we are now in the sacred land of Yaochi, the main character should be the Queen Mother of the West, and Wang Teng should not steal the spotlight and take up too much time.

Seeing this, the others wisely stopped and did not continue to dwell on giving gifts. Instead, they looked at the Queen Mother of the West and waited to hear what she had to say.

"Indeed, there are some matters I would like to discuss with everyone present," the Queen Mother of the West said slowly.

“Please speak freely, senior,” Wang Teng said.

Others chimed in to agree.

By this point, they probably already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

"As we all know, the Qishi Mansion will open within six months, at which time all the geniuses of the Five Regions will probably flock to it. The Peach Banquet will also be held in about six months, so the two events may conflict," said the Queen Mother of the West.

Others nodded.

This was something they had thought of a couple of days ago.

Such coincidences have rarely happened before, but this time it seems a bit too much of a coincidence.

The opening of the Qishi Mansion coincides with the time of the Yaochi Peach Banquet, which may lead to a much quieter Peach Banquet, making it the quietest Peach Banquet in history.

As for the current Queen Mother of the West, she certainly doesn't want to see such a thing happen.

"In order to ensure that all fellow Daoists in the world do not miss anything, after discussions with several Supreme Elders and the experts in charge, I have made a decision that goes against the ancestral teachings!" said the Queen Mother of the West of Yaochi.

Upon hearing about the decision to go against the ancestors' wishes, Wang Teng instantly pictured an old man in a floral cotton-padded coat, who, with a wave of his hand, began to make a decision that defied the ancestors' wishes...

"The Peach Banquet will be held earlier, five months from now, so that no one will miss it," the Queen Mother of the West said slowly, her gaze sweeping over the group of people.

Upon hearing the Queen Mother of the West's words, the others nodded in agreement.

In this way, they won't miss out on many things, and they can also perfectly experience both things.

“Indeed, this way we won’t miss either the Peach Banquet or the opening of the Qishi Mansion, and since the two events are closely linked, it’s not a bad thing,” a Holy Lord said. “However, wouldn’t this break the rules of the Yaochi Holy Land?”

“It’s alright,” the Queen Mother of the West said, with an air of elegance and nobility. “The rules were set by our ancestors and did not take into account the current situation, so the rules should also evolve with the times.”

What she said was true.

She discussed the matter at length with some influential figures in the Jade Pool Holy Land, and with their support, she overcame all opposition and brought forward the Peach Banquet.

If the Peach Banquet is not held in advance, it is conceivable that the banquet will be extremely deserted, with almost no young people attending and even some of the older generation unlikely to come.

Compared to the Peach Banquet, which takes place once every five hundred years, the Qishi Mansion is clearly attracting more attention.

If the two really do collide, then it's obvious that everyone will choose Qishifu.

And the most important thing is.

The Jade Pool Sacred Land also has something to do at this year's Peach Banquet.

Their several Stone Kings also need the help of Ye Fan, a successor of the Source Master lineage, Wang Teng, who possesses the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye and special inheritance, and others who have performed well in Source Arts, to seal the Stone Kings.

If they stubbornly refuse to change the date of the Peach Banquet, then even the Stone King will find it difficult to seal it.

That's why so many people in the Jade Pool Holy Land agreed to change the date of the Peach Banquet.

The Queen Mother of the West spoke, proving that the matter was settled. Although it was called a discussion, she was actually just informing everyone.

Those who can come here are all the leaders of major powers in the Eastern Wilderness and even the Five Regions. If this news is told to them, it will spread very quickly.

Sure enough, after the group of people in power left, the news quickly spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness and even the Five Regions.

If these people remember correctly, this is actually the first time that the Jade Pool Holy Land has taken the initiative to change the date of the Peach Banquet.

"Should we make way for the opening of the Qishi Mansion, or should we gather the geniuses there before it opens?"

Some people gazed calmly in the direction of the sacred Jade Pool. But regardless, the matter was settled.

For the next month, Tianjiao walked around almost non-existently.

Even Qi Hao, Lu Hao, and the others are diligently cultivating and preparing to shine on the soon-to-be-opened Ancient Star Road—this is also Wang Teng's requirement.

Therefore, in the entire Eastern Wilderness, the only prodigy still wandering outside is Wang Teng himself.

For the past month, Wang Teng has been living a very relaxed and leisurely life, taking his two little girls out for walks every day.

Xiao Nannan and Xiao Erya followed Wang Teng the whole time.

From the holy city to the mining areas of some holy families, and then to some remote but scenic places.

He even brought the two little ones to the Primordial Ancient Mine.

One is a descendant of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, and the other is the Dao Fruit of the Ruthless Great Emperor.

To be honest, when he arrived here, he was even eager to venture deep into the Primordial Ancient Mine and ask for a few Primordial Stones.

Wang Teng figured that, given the influence of the two people beside him, getting a few Primordial Stones should be as easy as just opening his mouth.
Even if one were bold enough to make a request to have dinner with an ancient emperor... of course, this request might be difficult to fulfill.

Unless the Grandmaster himself comes in person, those ancient emperors will definitely not have dinner with him.

Thinking of this, Wang Teng sighed softly, nodded slightly in a certain direction in the Primordial Ancient Mine, and then turned and left with the two little ones.

Ultimately, the Primordial Mine is still too dangerous. To think you could go in and party right now is a bit of an overestimation of your abilities.

Just as Wang Teng turned to leave, a creature covered in scales in the Primordial Ancient Mine widened its eyes.

"He... just spotted me?"

The enormous creature looked on in astonishment, its eyes filled with disbelief.

He was, after all, a saint, whose cultivation level far surpassed that of the little guy outside. In addition, he was in the Primordial Ancient Mine, concealed by the aura of the Primordial Ancient Mine. How could he possibly be discovered?

"No, this matter must be reported to our king. This child is definitely extraordinary. If our clan recovers in the future, this child may be the biggest variable!"

The ancient saint, covered in scales, made a decision in an instant. He took a step, and his mountain-sized body moved silently.

Outside the Primordial Ancient Mine, Wang Teng recalled the feeling of being spied on.

The opponent's strength should far exceed his, and with the aura of the Primordial Ancient Mine concealing him, even the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye could not see where the opponent was.

However, the sense of crisis brought by the secret of the previous character allowed him to roughly sense the other party's location.

It's just a little trick before leaving, enough to fool whoever it might.

It's best not to provoke them; rather, let them rush out to find you.

Then they were all thrown into the desolate and forbidden land and turned into slaves.

Unfortunately, the guy didn't make a move until Wang Teng left.

This also dashed Wang Teng's hopes of exploring other forbidden zones.

If the Primordial Ancient Mine can endure this much, what about the other forbidden zones of life?

"Er Ya, Nan Nan, what do you want to eat later?" Wang Teng asked.

“Tanghulu!”

“Tanghulu!”

The two people said in unison.

"Okay! Let's go eat candied hawthorns! We've eaten so many candied hawthorns in the Northern Region, how about I take you to the Southern Region to see if there are any good ones?"

Wang Teng spoke with a smile.

He lightly stomped his foot, his aura stirring the earth's energy. The patterns between heaven and earth were awakened, and layers of array patterns instantly appeared beneath Wang Teng's feet, transforming into a array pattern, and then into a domain gate.

The dimensional gate opened, and the Southern Domain lay opposite.

If Black Emperor were here, his jaw would drop with excitement.

Wang Teng's move has surpassed Qi Hao's mastery of formations!

Even the chessboard array pattern that the Black Emperor considered his forte could not compare to the domain gate that Wang Teng opened in an instant.

This is the legacy of the Ruthless Great Emperor, the essence condensed by him through the integration of various Great Emperor array patterns.

The dimensional gate opened, and Wang Teng, holding a little girl's hand, instantly traveled from the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness to the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness.

It's still a familiar place.

This is the place where Wang Teng once saved Jiang Tingting; it's a small town.

Wang Teng found the old man selling candied hawthorns, bought three candied hawthorns—one large and two small—and sat in front of the already closed tavern, facing the setting sun. They each ate one bite, and soon finished them.

"Since we're just killing time anyway, let's go to the Ji family's house for a free meal," Wang Teng said.

Wang Teng's sudden visit caused chaos throughout the Ji family. The Ji family's Holy Lord was not present, and a Dao-Slaying King who had just emerged from the seal personally greeted Wang Teng and intended to awaken the divine body Ji Haoyue, who was in seclusion.

"Senior, there's no need to be so polite. I just brought my two younger sisters here for a meal. Just think of me as a distant branch of the family who's here to ask for a bite to eat," Wang Teng said with a smile.

That being said, the Ji family did not neglect their duties.

Some rare ingredients were taken out from the treasure vault, things that even the Holy Lord of the Ji family might not be able to enjoy.

The seemingly ordinary dinner was far more luxurious than the most prestigious banquet in the Northern Holy City, and it was even attended by the Ji family's Dao-Slaying King and several Supreme Elders.

Although the atmosphere had to be serious and reserved, the two little ones ate very happily.

Before leaving, Wang Teng didn't stand on ceremony. He took the whole plate of the fairy fruit that the little girl loved to eat, and with his usual casual movements, he outlined the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, opened the Domain Gate, and returned to the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness in one step.

“Every move he makes is in harmony with the Dao of Heaven. This guy… has already surpassed the ancient great powers. Even the Dao-Slaying Kings might not be able to match his understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth!”

The Ji family's Dao-Slaying King was filled with shock and astonishment upon seeing this scene.

As a King of the Dao, only he knows how terrifying it is to be able to do this!
Fortunately, this person was an ally of the Ji family and treated them as one of their own.

After returning to the Eastern Wilderness, Wang Teng remained carefree until a few days before the Peach Banquet began.

When the other prodigies emerged from seclusion and learned that Wang Teng had been out and about all this time, they all showed expressions of disbelief.

"This guy... doesn't he need to cultivate?"
