Although there was no fifth-tier spirit cuisine, the five Spirit Transformation masters still savored the meal.
At the Spirit Transformation realm, fifth-rank spirit treasures were simply too scarce in the world. Thus, even Spirit Transformation masters mostly ate fourth-tier spirit cuisine.
Since everyone was thoroughly enjoying the meal, Sect Master Wang Fen did not immediately explain why he had come. He waited until they had eaten and drunk their fill before revealing the purpose of his visit.
"To be frank, Junior Brother Liu, I actually came here to discuss something with you."
After drinking a cup of fourth-tier supreme-grade green snow tea, Wang Fen said leisurely:
"Please go ahead, Sect Master!"
Liu Changxu was very curious about Wang Fen's purpose. Seeing that he was about to reveal the answer, he spoke up:
"Here is the situation! Someone from the Ice Snow Sword Sect in the northern Yan Kingdom has just broken through to Spirit Transformation. They plan to hold a Spirit Transformation Ceremony in six months and have invited cultivation sects far and wide to attend. Our sect received an invitation as well.
"However, all our Grand Supreme Elders have matters to attend to, and none are willing to go.
"I came here to ask your opinion, Junior Brother Liu. Would you be willing to lead our delegation?"
Wang Fen's words only deepened Liu Changxu's confusion. Wasn't this simply a matter of leading a delegation to the Ice Snow Sword Sect's Spirit Transformation Ceremony? It should have been a very straightforward assignment. Was it really necessary for the sect master to travel so far to discuss it with him?
Perhaps sensing Liu Changxu's confusion, Wang Fen explained further:
"Junior Brother Liu, you mustn't underestimate this assignment! The task itself is simple, but being the delegation's leader is no easy matter!
