Nangong Three Sisters

"Mountain Lord, I am Su Heng, head of the Su Family. My little girl has a stubborn and mischievous temperament. If she does anything wrong, Mountain Lord, please feel free to discipline her. Her skin is thick and her flesh is tough—she'll be fine."

Upon learning that Li Zhoujun was a mountain lord of the Dao Tian Sect, Su Heng hurriedly cupped his hands toward him.

Su Nan stuck out her pink tongue at this. He really was her biological father.

"Patriarch Su, you jest. You have raised a fine daughter," Li Zhoujun said with a soft laugh.

Li Zhoujun said this from the bottom of his heart.

Back then, if Su Heng had chosen to join another mountain lord, Li Zhoujun would not have stopped him. After all, he had already received the system reward, so he did not particularly care.

"You flatter me, Mountain Lord." Su Heng was somewhat flattered. It seemed his daughter was greatly favored by this mountain lord.

Thus, the shrewd old fox that was Su Heng immediately laid on the flattery. "For Mountain Lord to command the Nine Dragon Chariot, you must surely be one among the immortals. With my daughter entrusted to Mountain Lord's guidance, this old father can rest easy."

That flattery hit the mark, and Li Zhoujun found it quite pleasing. After all, why did he command the Nine Dragon Chariot?

Was it for speed?

Of course not.

If he wanted speed, wouldn't it be better to simply use the Ao Xue Flying Sword?

It was entirely for the sheer style!

"Patriarch Su, you give me more credit than I deserve," Li Zhoujun said modestly.

At this moment, Su Heng asked again, "Mountain Lord, regarding the Blood Refining Sect..."

Li Zhoujun waved a hand, cutting Su Heng off. "The Blood Refining Sect has been doing unspeakable things right under the Dao Tian Sect's nose. As a mountain lord of the Dao Tian Sect, naturally I cannot let them off lightly."

Hearing this, Su Heng finally set down the stone weighing on his heart.

After all, he had feared Li Zhoujun would simply pat his backside and leave. If that happened, Pingyu City would become a target for the Blood Refining Sect to vent its anger upon.

Li Zhoujun then instructed Su Nan, "Spend some time with your father. Once your cultivation grows deeper and deeper, a single period of seclusion may last more than a decade."

"Yes, Master," Su Nan replied, though she could not help feeling somewhat saddened.

Su Heng, however, took it quite well. He stroked Su Nan's head and comforted her, "Girl, it is certainly wonderful for you to stay by Father's side, but if you become better and better, Father will be all the happier."

"Patriarch Su truly sees things clearly." Li Zhoujun chuckled, his figure flashing as he reappeared atop the Nine Dragon Chariot. Looking at Su Nan, he said, "Your master will come fetch you in seven days."

With that, Li Zhoujun directly drove the Nine Dragon Chariot toward the Blood Refining Sect.

As Su Nan watched Li Zhoujun gradually turn into a black speck in the sky and disappear, then looked around at the familiar surroundings she stood in, she felt that her experiences at Yunju Mountain had been like a dream—so unreal.

"Girl, snap out of it. What, you can't bear to part with your master?" Su Heng waved a hand before Su Nan's face.

"Father!" Su Nan shyly and angrily thumped her father's chest with her little fists, as though acting spoiled.

Watching this scene of family bliss, Su Heng felt a trace of melancholy. It would be difficult to see his daughter act spoiled again in the future.

Yet at the same time, Su Heng was deeply proud. After all, his daughter had become the disciple of a mountain lord from the Dao Tian Sect; her future accomplishments would naturally be beyond measure.

"Patriarch, you gave birth to a fine daughter!"

At this moment, an elder of the Su Family said enviously to Su Heng.

Among them, some had also sent their children to the Dao Tian Sect in search of an immortal opportunity over ten days ago.

They did not know whether those children had successfully entered the Dao Tian Sect. If not, they were likely still on the road back to their families.

How could they be like Su Nan, returning directly aboard the Nine Dragon Chariot?

Fortunately, with this mountain lord of the Dao Tian Sect taking action to destroy the Blood Refining Sect, their children would be able to return safely as well.

At this time.

The Drizzly Rain Mountain Range, where the Blood Refining Sect was located.

Dark clouds blanketed the sky there throughout all four seasons, and fine rain fell without end.

The Blood Refining Sect's grounds were situated halfway up a great mountain.

This mountain had also been named Blood Refining Mountain by the people of the Blood Refining Sect.

Below Blood Refining Mountain.

Three women had gathered.

All three wore white.

If others had been present, they would have discovered that these three women were as lovely as lotus blossoms rising from water, and bore an astonishing resemblance to one another—they were actually triplets!

With a little more thought, one could guess that these three were the Nangong Three Sisters who had recently risen to fame in the cultivation world: eldest sister Nangong Anran, second sister Nangong Xinran, and third sister Nangong Youran.

"Eldest Sister, the Blood Refining Ancestor of the Blood Refining Sect is at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, only one step away from Spirit Transformation. Though the three of us need not fear him if we join forces, we would likely still suffer severe injuries. Is it really worth taking such a great risk for that boy called Lin Yishang? After all, the number of admirers our three sisters have in the cultivation world would be enough to circle Blood Refining Mountain three times, wouldn't it?"

At this moment, second sister Nangong Xinran frowned as she spoke to eldest sister Nangong Anran.

Nangong Anran said, "He has a jade pendant that can grant entry into the Void Immortal Tomb. Of course it is worth it."

Nangong Youran, the third sister, curled her lips. "What? I think you've taken a fancy to that boy, Elder Sister. After all, he saved your life when you were gravely injured. Besides, even if we obtain the jade pendant for entering the Void Immortal Tomb, we'd still need to live long enough to go there!"

"You two little girls, don't speak nonsense. If you're afraid, then just wait for me here," Nangong Anran said.

Nangong Xinran frowned. "Elder Sister, what nonsense are you saying? If Third Sister and I were afraid, we wouldn't have secretly followed you when you slipped out earlier."

"You two little girls..."

Nangong Anran gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar..."

Just then, a sudden change occurred.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, accompanied by waves of dragon roars.

Then, the sight of nine flood dragons pulling a chariot abruptly appeared before the Nangong Three Sisters.

"Someone actually dares to use nine Void Immortal Stage Flood Dragons to pull their chariot!"

Nangong Youran, the third sister, had shock written all over her little face.

"I wonder whether this great cultivator is friend or foe..."

Nangong Anran, the eldest sister, knitted her brows tightly, her face full of worry.

"Look at that young man atop the Nine Dragon Chariot—he's so handsome and elegant. No matter how you look at him, he can't possibly be one of those crooked, heretical Blood Refining Sect types. Perhaps he's even here to wipe out the Blood Refining Sect."

Nangong Xinran, the second sister, wore the expression of someone watching a good show.

"You girl, judging people by their faces will make you suffer a great loss someday." Nangong Anran tapped Nangong Xinran's forehead with her index finger.

As the Nangong Three Sisters chattered away—

Li Zhōujūn's gaze seemed to pierce through everything as he glanced in the direction where they were.

Swept by Li Zhōujūn's gaze, the Nangong Three Sisters felt as though an invisible pressure, as immense as a mountain range, had suddenly descended upon them.

Fortunately, that pressure came swiftly and vanished just as swiftly.

"This great cultivator has already discovered us, yet he didn't attack us. It seems he is most likely here with ill intentions toward the Blood Refining Sect."

Nangong Youran, the third sister, said with a pale little face.

Her two sisters nodded in agreement as well.

"I wonder who this person truly is. I've thought through all the powerful figures of Azure Continent, yet I still can't find an answer."

Looking at Li Zhōujūn atop the Nine Dragon Chariot, who seemed like a supreme sovereign descended in person, Nangong Xinran frowned tightly. A powerhouse like this should have had his name and distinguishing traits resound throughout Azure Continent long ago.

Take Liǔ Yán, for example—dressed in flaming red robes and arrogant beyond measure. The moment others saw him, they could guess that he was the Fire Maple Mountain Lord of Dao Tian Sect.

"This seat is the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord of Dao Tian Sect. Blood Refining Ancestor, why haven't you come out to die?"

Just as Nangong Xinran was puzzled, Li Zhōujūn, seated atop the Nine Dragon Chariot, spoke. His voice was like spring thunder, resounding throughout all of Blood Refining Mountain.

"He's actually a Mountain Lord of Dao Tian Sect!"

Upon hearing Li Zhōujūn's identity, the Nangong Three Sisters felt towering waves surge within their hearts.
