A Jade Hairpin Is Better Value! (4K)

"Immortal Changliu is truly generous, offering two Sword Dao Divine Fruits with a single gesture. The foundation of Changliu Mountain is unfathomable."

"The Sect-Guarding Sword Art of Changliu Holy Land, 'The Frost-and-Wind Sword,' is also a unique skill in the Immortal Realm."

"Those people, could they be the Sword Saints of Changliu Mountain? These Sword Saints truly possess formidable auras."

"At this rate, the Changliu Holy Land may be able to rival the Tianzong, the sword cultivator Holy Land Heavenly Sect of yesteryear, in terms of strength."

As expected, all the major Holy Land praised the Immortal Changliu.

The Immortal Changliu presented two Sword Dao Divine Fruit as a congratulatory gift for the new Palace Master's ascension to the throne. This generous gesture won praise, and Changliu Mountain gained some fame as a result.

Immortal Changliu was satisfied with the reactions from all sides.

This time, they can both befriend the Moon Palace and bring fame to Changliu Mountain, achieving two goals at once.

Although giving away two Sword Dao Divine Fruit really made the Immortal Changliu feel a pang of heartache for quite a while.

"Snort."

Yun Qianyue snorted casually. She probably disagreed with others comparing Changliu Holy Land to the Heavenly Sect.

The power of the Heavenly Sect in its heyday far surpassed that of Changliu Mountain.

The goal of the Heavenly Sect is to surpass the High Antiquity Heavenly Court.

"Xue'er, since it's an offer of kindness from Immortal Changliu, please accept it."

Li Heng accepted all gifts without hesitation, and ultimately used the treasures she received to improve Xia Ningxue's cultivation, so that Moon Palace could produce another Great Expert.

"Then thank you Immortal Changliu."

Xia Ningxue ascended to the Moon Palace Master, Immortal Changliu, and readily accepted the Sword Dao Divine Fruit.

In the spirit of reciprocity, if the Immortal Changliu in the future, Moon Palace will also reciprocate with gifts.

"This is the Dao Cloud Immortal Herb, planted atop Yunshan by our High Antiquity Yun Household. It has absorbed the essence of heaven and earth and possesses the wondrous power to transform the rotten into the miraculous. It has been rated as Twentieth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Our Cloud Mountain Holy Land presents this item to congratulate Miss Xia on taking charge of the Moon Palace."

"Our High Antiquity Long Household offers a drop of Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Blood. Although it is only a drop, it contains a portion of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon's understanding of the Great Dao. If used properly, it may greatly benefit one's enlightenment."

"Our Buzhou Holy Land doesn't have anything particularly valuable, but this is a Twentieth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the 'Buzhou Yao Stone,' which contains a large amount of Demon Power and may have some wonderful uses."

Holy Lands and Aristocratic Clan alike sent their congratulatory gifts, the worst of which were treasures of the Nineteenth-Grade.

Those present were all important figures; they wouldn't dare show off anything less than a valuable treasure—they couldn't afford to lose face.

"This is Heavenly Pond Ice Lotus that is tens of millions of years old. It is of great help to cultivating the Taiyin Cold Qi. I hope Palace Master Xia will accept it."

The leader of the Five Kunlun Elders had a Snow Lotus, as white as ice crystals, appear in his palm, radiating a chilling aura. Many Holy Lands and Aristocratic Clan were stunned by his presence.

"Twenty-one, First-Grade Ice Lotus!"

"The Purple Void Palace of Kunlun Mountain is truly wealthy and powerful, actually giving away a rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures of the Twenty-First-Grade."

"This is a Twenty-First-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, a top-grade treasure that can only be nurtured by the Kunlun Mountain vein. Even ordinary Holy Lands might not be able to obtain a single one even if they begged the Kunlun Holy Land. I didn't expect the Purple Void Palace to be so generous."

The Elders of the various Holy Land whispered among themselves, all finding it unbelievable.

The Purple Void Palace is far too kind to the Moon Palace.

The Profound Maiden Palace, the Martial God Palace, the Three Pure Ones Palace, and the other three of the Eight Divine Palaces only gave away treasures of Twentieth-Grade.

"After the High Antiquity War ended, Purple Void Palace and Moon Palace withdrew from the High Antiquity Heavenly Court. The two Divine Palaces jointly withstood the pressure from the Heavenly Court, so the two Divine Palaces have always maintained close relations. It is not surprising that Purple Void Palace is generous."

Lin Xuantong appreciated the generosity of the Purple Void Palace, but he knew the reason behind it.

"These are the Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality from our Yaochi."

Feng Qing'er reluctantly presented the exquisite immortal peaches unique to Yaochi.

The vibrant, juicy Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality appeared, their fragrance filling the air. Many Elders and disciples from Holy Lands and Aristocratic Clan couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Could this be a fruit from the Peach of Immortality Ancestral Tree?"

"That's for sure. Within the Three Realms, only the Peach of Immortality Ancestral Tree of Immortality in Yaochi can bear Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality, which are top-grade treasures that can even benefit Great Expert."

"Isn't Yaochi at odds with the Moon Palace? Why are they being so generous?"

"I heard that Yaochi and Moon Palace recently reconciled. The two Holy Lands are not far apart, and they often run into each other. It's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester."

"The fact that Yaochi has offered such a precious treasure suggests a complete reconciliation with Yaochi, which may become a celebrated story in the Immortal Realm."

Everyone started gossiping again.

The conflict between Yaochi and Moon Palace is really nothing; it's just a rivalry between Li Heng and Feng Qing'er.

"I thank you on behalf of my disciple."

Li Heng's attitude towards Feng Qing'er improved.

The Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality were already the most treasured possession of the Yaochi Pool, and the fact that the Yaochi Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality them as a congratulatory gift was enough to show Yaochi sincerity.

"Hmph. Although the relationship between our two Holy Lands has improved, it doesn't mean that we two are alright."

Feng Qing'er presented the Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality, snorted coldly, and sat down again, ignoring Li Heng.

Li Heng simply smiled at the arrogant Feng Qing'er.

The two had been secretly competing for a long time and knew each other's personalities inside and out, knowing that Feng Qing'er was saying one thing but meaning another.

After visiting the Purple Void Palace and the Yaochi, Lin Xuantong rose and, on behalf of the Taihua Sacred Ground, presented a congratulatory gift. "This is the Taihua Sacred Ground's First-Grade Enlightenment Tea Leaf, harvested only once every hundred million years."

"It's actually the finest Enlightenment Tea Leaf, comparable to the Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality!"

"Because of the relationship between the Saint and the Moon Palace Saintess, the Taihua Sacred Ground is indeed generous, bringing out its most famous and top-grade treasures."

"The Holy Land of the Moon Palace, Yaochi, Taihua Mountain, and Changliu Mountain are becoming increasingly close, and they are bound to become a force to be reckoned with in the immortal Immortal Realm in the future."

"With the combined strength of several Holy Land and the former tenth Divine Palace, the Moon Palace, it is comparable to one of the Eight Divine Palaces."

"Maybe the structure of the fairy world will change in the future because of this."

The various Holy Land realized that these Holy Land were growing closer due to personal relationships and might potentially advance or retreat together.

"Since the Taihua Sacred Ground has sent treasures of this caliber, I wonder if the Taihua Saint will prepare a separate congratulatory gift?"

"The new Moon Palace Master and the Taihua Saint are dao companion; the Taihua Saint should offer a congratulatory gift."

"It's said that the Taihua Saint is incredibly wealthy, I wonder what kind of treasures he will present?"

Since Lin Xuantong, representing the Taihua Sacred Ground, presented the First-Grade Enlightenment Tea Leaf, Lu Changsheng should also have prepared a congratulatory gift.

All eyes turned to Lu Changsheng.

Lin Qinghan and Yuexi's expressions were somewhat peculiar, with a hint of resentment in them.

Suddenly, Lin Qinghan noticed that Yuexi, the number one genius of the Profound Maiden Palace, had eyes that were somewhat similar to her own. She was secretly surprised; could it be that Yuexi also had similar feelings to her?

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Lu Changsheng calmly took out the wooden box that the Heavenly Fire Holy Land had commissioned to make.

The jade box was engraved with exquisite ice lotus patterns, making it clear at a glance that it contained an extremely precious treasure.

Lu Changsheng gently pushed open the box lid, and a jade hairpin appeared before the world.

"Ah?"

"It's just a jade hairpin; there seems to be nothing special about it."

"To present only a jade hairpin to someone of the Taihua Saint's status is rather stingy."

The crowd, who had been full of expectations, were greatly disappointed.

The various Holy Lands sent out top-grade treasures such as the Sword Dao Divine Fruit, the Immortal Dao Cloud Immortal Herb, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Blood, and the Buzhou Yao Stone of Buzhou. The Purple Void Palace, the Taihua Sacred Ground, Yaochi, which have good relations with the Moon Palace, even sent out the Twenty-First-Grade Heavenly Pond Ice Lotus, the Primordial Chaos Peach of Immortality, and the First-Grade Enlightenment Tea Leaf.

As the person closest to Xia Ningxue and the Taihua Saint, Lu Changsheng is not lacking in treasures, so why did he only give her a jade hairpin?

Xia Ningxue took the jade hairpin, her beautiful eyes sparkling. She valued this jade hairpin more than any other treasure.

After all, it was a gift from a loved one; even if it was just a twig, it was still incredibly precious.

"Palace Master Xia seems to value this gift exceptionally."

"Is it not that we can't afford to give other treasures, but that the jade hairpin is more cost-effective? The Taihua Saint's realm is above ours?"

"Lu Changsheng is truly lucky to have such an understanding dao companion. I wonder if it's a blessing he earned in his past life."

The male Elders and disciples of various Holy Land and Aristocratic Clan were filled with envy.

This is the kind of Virtuous Wife and Good Mother they've been looking for.

The female Elders and disciples, however, had a different opinion. "What do you know? Palace Master Xia is now in charge of the Moon Palace and is also Peerless Genius Top Eight in the Heavenly Court Assembly. How could she lack treasures? Fellow Daoist Lu gave us specially crafted ornaments; this shows his thoughtfulness even more."

"I see."

The male Elders and disciples all looked as if they had suddenly realized something.

It turns out that it's not that we can't afford to give away top-tier treasures, but rather that jewelry offers better value for money.

"Is this Taiyin Cold Jade?"

Xia Ningxue realized that this jade hairpin was no ordinary hairpin; it was crafted from a special Artifact Refining material called Taiyin Cold Jade.

The Moon Palace cultivates the most Yin and cold True Qi, which is why Xia Ningxue was able to suppress the cold energy of the jade hairpin. At first, she didn't even realize that the jade hairpin was made of Taiyin Cold Jade.

"What?! A jade hairpin made of Taiyin Cold Jade?! That's far too extravagant!"

Upon hearing Xia Ningxue's words, some knowledgeable Elders from Holy Land and Aristocratic Clan re-examined the Xia Ningxue hairpin in her hand and were greatly shocked, some even standing up.

"Elder, what is the Taiyin Cold Jade?"

"Taiyin Cold Jade is a top-grade Artifact Refining material of the Twenty-First-Grade, usually used to refine Law Treasures, and even very high-ranking Law Treasure... This, he used Taiyin Cold Jade to polish into a jade hairpin, what a waste, what a sin..."

An Elder from the Cloud Mountain Holy Land muttered to himself, his eyes glazed over.

He had never seen such an extravagant person before; using Twenty-First-Grade Artifact Refining materials only to polish a jade hairpin?

Such a grand gesture is even more impressive than directly presenting a treasure of the Twenty-First-Grade.

"Twenty-First-Grade Artifact Refining materials are only enough to polish a single jade hairpin..."

"People say that the Taihua Saint is richer than a country, but I didn't believe it. Today I've learned something new."

"So it wasn't that the jade hairpin had a better cost-effectiveness ratio, but rather that he didn't consider cost-effectiveness ratio at all."

The Elders and disciples were all deeply shocked.

To use top-grade Artifact Refining materials to create a jade hairpin that looks purely decorative is incredibly extravagant!

The eyes of the many female Elders and disciples shone with envy.

It would be wonderful if someone could give them jade hairpins of this caliber.

"Junior sister is really lucky..."

Third Senior Sister Jiang Yue drank alone in sorrow.

Xia Ningxue replaced her as the Moon Palace Saintess and successfully took control of the Moon Palace. With such a devoted dao companion, how could anyone not be envious?

"As expected of an ornament I crafted, it immediately stole the show."

Elder Wu of the Heavenly Fire Holy Land stroked his beard with pride. As an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, he couldn't help but feel proud that the works created by the Artifact Refining had gained recognition from the world.

"Han'er, there's nothing we can do about it. Try to take it easy."

Seeing that his daughter was a little disappointed, Lin Xuantong comforted Lin Qinghan.

"Dad, I'm alright."

Lin Qinghan forced a smile.

She also knew that Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue were dao companion Ascension from the Three Thousand Small Worlds and had supported each other through thick and thin when they were weak.

Yuexi sighed softly, drank a cup alone, and found the fine wine prepared by the Moon Palace tasteless and bland.

"The Moon Palace Saintess has taken control of the Moon Palace so quickly; no wonder Imperial Son Ku took a liking to her. It's just a pity she already has dao companion; for Imperial Son Ku to still want to interfere is a bit too much..."

Li Cangshui at the Three Pure Ones Palace was lost in thought.

"Haha, Brother Lu, you're really generous. I, Chu Wuqing, am like a beggar in front of you."

Chu Wuqing spoke his mind, admitting that even he, the number one genius of the younger generation in the Martial God Palace, was far less wealthy than Lu Changsheng.

Using Twenty-First-Grade Artifact Refining materials only to forge a jade hairpin—what kind of wealth does that mean?

In a flash, dozens of Daoist appeared in the seats on either side of the ceremony.

The elders of the Moon Palace appeared and were quite satisfied with Lu Changsheng.

This time, Lu Changsheng not only brought honor to the Taihua Sacred Ground, but also benefited the Moon Palace.

Xia Ningxue is now the Palace Master of the Moon Palace, and her dao companion Palace Master the number one genius in the Moon Palace Immortal Realm, and is also incredibly wealthy. This makes the Moon Palace Ancestor, who treat her like a son-in-law, extremely satisfied.

"The ancestors of the Moon Palace have finally appeared."

"Why are some of these ancestors so unfamiliar? Hmm... Could these be the High Antiquity Ancestors of the Moon Palace?"

"The Moon Palace truly lives up to its reputation as the Heavenly Court's Tenth Divine Palace of the High Antiquity Heavenly Court. Although it hasn't been so high-profile in front of the world for a long time, Moon Palace foundation remains unfathomable."

Great figures such as Immortal Changliu Shangxian, Taichu Primordial Beginning Holy Lord, Yaochi Holy Mother, and Lin Xuantong were all moved by the appearance of the Moon Palace Ancestors.

The Moon Palace is located in the Endless Ice Plains of the far north of the Immortal Realm. It usually lives a secluded life and rarely interferes in the disputes between the major Holy Lands of the Immortal Realm. As a result, the major Holy Lands have almost forgotten that in High Antiquity times, the Moon Palace was the tenth divine Divine Palace of the Ancient Heavenly Court.

So strong...

Lu Changsheng felt an extremely strong sense of oppression from several of the Moon Palace Ancestors, an oppression comparable to that of High Antiquity Saint.

Is this the essence of the Divine Palace?

The Moon Palace Master only represents Moon Palace on ordinary days to handle relations with other Holy Lands. These High Antiquity Ancestors are probably the true core fighting force of the Moon Palace.

Dozens of Moon Palace Ancestor nodded to Li Heng and Xia Ningxue, indicating that they did not need to pay attention to their presence, and the ceremony continued.

They were just there to maintain order and, incidentally, to demonstrate the power of the Moon Palace to the world.

"What is the purpose of the Moon Palace in showcasing its strength through this opportunity?"

Lin Xuantong, however, noticed another purpose of the Moon Palace.
