I've Been AFK for Ten Million Years-Chapter 30 - : Invitation to the Heavenly Moon Fairyland
Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Invitation to the Heavenly Moon Fairyland
"Cultivation is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you'll fall back. Everyone, disperse. As the saying goes, 'Heaven rewards the diligent.' It's better to return and diligently cultivate than to stay here listening to lectures."
Ren Changsheng looked at the crowd and said indifferently.
"Senior Brother Ren's teachings are profound!"
"We shall heed your advice!"
...
A group of people hastily paid their respects to Ren Changsheng before taking their leave.
Most of these people were outer sect disciples of Tianyue Celestial Land, the lowest in the hierarchy there.
And that is why.
They were drawn into Han Ming's words of 'imparting without discrimination.'
Because in their hearts, they too hoped they could have access to the same cultivation techniques and resources as the inner sect disciples.
But unfortunately.
That is simply impossible!
Whether it's Tianyue Celestial Land or the Scholarly Holy Land, talent is what they look for. Without the talent, dreams of better cultivation resources are nothing but empty talk!
A quarter of an hour later, only three people remained in front of the hall.
Other than Ren Changsheng and Ji Ling'er, there was only one Tantai Fairy.
"This must be the second Holy Maiden of Tianyue Celestial Land, Tantai Fairy, right?"
Before Ren Changsheng could speak, Ji Ling'er stepped forward with a grin, looking at Dan Taixian.
"Indeed!"
Dan Taixian's deep voice sounded.
At this moment.
Her eyes occasionally glanced at Ren Changsheng. Every time she saw his calm and indifferent face, Tantai Fairy's heart felt somewhat unpleasant.
"No, that's not right. Since I didn't break off the engagement when I was at the Ren family fortress, it means Ren Changsheng didn't want to break it either. If he's willing to marry me, then I am willing as well..."
As if recalling something, Tantai Fairy's pretty face blushed slightly.
At this moment.
She no longer had Han Ming on her mind.
Her heart, once again, turned towards Ren Changsheng.
"Dan Taixuan of Tianyue Celestial Land's Seven Elders, greets Young Master Ren!"
Just then, a respectful voice came through.
In a moment, an elder descended from the void, and following the elder, Tantai Fairy hurried forward.
"Grandfather, why have you come?"
Tantai Fairy quickly said.
"Xian'er!"
The elder's eyes brightened, and then he said to Ren Changsheng: "The Sect Leader has specially instructed me to invite Young Master Ren to attend the Ancestral Ceremony tomorrow. Moreover, the Sect Leader said, if Young Master Ren is interested in our Tianyue Celestial Land, we will fully support Young Master Ren in achieving the status of a Saint!"
"An invitation?"
A hint of wariness appeared on Ji Ling'er's face.
Ren Changsheng, however, appeared as if he had known all along, looking at Dan Taixuan with an indifferent expression.
Back then.
Was this old man the one my grandfather risked his life to save?
"I am not interested in Tianyue Celestial Land's Ancestral Ceremony. Ling'er, didn't you invite me to the Emperor Qin Empire? Let's set off now. I also want to take a look at the Emperor Qin Empire!"
Ren Changsheng turned his head and smiled at Ling'er.
"Ah!"
Ling'er looked stunned, but in a moment, Ji Ling'er was overjoyed in her heart that Ren Changsheng agreed to go to the Emperor Qin Empire, which was naturally a good thing.
If it were the Ren Changsheng from the beginning.
She would have been full of confidence in her heart, but after witnessing a Saint's descent this time, Ji Ling'er was well aware that if the Emperor Qin Empire did not make an effort, it might be hopeless!
"I will report this to the Emperor Qin Empire at once. Knowing that Big Brother Chang Sheng is coming, our Grand Confucian Hall will surely come out of the city to welcome him miles away!"
"And our Emperor Qin officials will certainly be eagerly watching at the city gate to show sincerity!"
Ji Ling'er quickly stepped forward and said.
"Wait a minute!"
The elder was somewhat panicked. Leaving today? Who would conduct the Ancestral Ceremony?
With Han Ming gone, and Ming You gone, where could he find someone to preside over the ceremony?
If it got out that Tianyue Celestial Land couldn't even invite a grand scholar to their Ancestral Ceremony.

It would likely become the laughingstock of the entire Southern Domain!
"Young Master Ren, our Sect Leader said that if you would attend the Ancestral Ceremony, there will be a generous gift to express our gratitude. Not only that, but our Sect Leader also said, whatever you need, Young Master Ren, just say the word!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, the elder said respectfully.
"Oh!"
Ren Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
A moment passed.
Ren Changsheng started to smile.
"Hearing that the trees on Tianyue Peak grow lush and verdant, I have no other matters to attend to, so a visit there tomorrow wouldn't hurt. But let me be clear, not one less than a hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones!"
Ren Changsheng stepped forward, his smile beaming.
"A hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones..."
The corner of the elder's mouth twitched. Top-grade Spirit Stones, and a hundred thousand at that. Even though Tianyue Peak rules over thirty-six counties, that's still a huge sum!
"This..."
The elder's mouth trembled slightly.
He had not expected.
That Ren Changsheng would ask for so much right off the bat.
"If that's not possible, no worries, Ling'er, I'm a bit tired. Let's head back to rest for now. After a good break, we'll visit Emperor Qin..."
"We, from Tianyue Peak, agree!"
Gritting his teeth, the elder stepped forward to say.
"Hahaha... The Seventh Elder is indeed generous. That's settled then; I'll personally visit your Tianyue Peak at dawn tomorrow. Ling'er, let's go!"
Ren Changsheng gave the elder a faint smile and then turned to leave.
"Big Brother Chang Sheng, what about the Emperor Qin's nation..."
"No rush!"
Ren Changsheng said with a smile.
"Big Brother Chang Sheng, as long as you visit our Emperor Qin's nation, we are willing to offer two hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones. What do you think?"
Ji Ling'er suggested with a twirl of her eyes.
"Two hundred thousand?"
A gleam appeared in Ren Changsheng's eyes. In the mini mart of stars, anything at the Immortal level starts at one hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones. Two hundred thousand meant two Immortal Artifacts.
"Three hundred thousand..."
"Four hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
Seeing that Ren Changsheng made no move, Ji Ling'er gritted her teeth and spoke again.
"Deal!"
Ren Changsheng immediately agreed.
Five hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones?
That's worth making the trip!
"Hahaha!"
Seeing Ren Changsheng agree, Ji Ling'er let out a sigh of relief.
At last, she had gotten Ren Changsheng's agreement. As long as he visits Emperor Qin's nation, Ji Ling'er was confident that she could definitely keep Ren Changsheng there.
"Let's go back to rest first!"
"Let's go!"
In a moment, the two disappeared from the spot.
On Tianyue Peak.
"Dan Taixuan, have you lost your senses?"
The leader of Tianyue Peak, the sect master, had a somewhat unsightly look on his face.
At this moment, Dan Taixuan was also full of regret, while Dan Taixian stood behind him.
"A natural talent with Immortal-grade Spirit Roots, the Inheritor of the Scholar Saint—how extraordinary is that? Did you not see yesterday the great powers scrambling over each other?"
"Doesn't such a genius deserve your granddaughter?"
The sect master spoke in a deep voice.
"The sect master's lesson is sound. It was my old eyes that were blind, that missed seeing his potential, but who could have expected that this young master of such an insignificant Ren clan could hide so deep!"
Dan Taixuan sighed.
"By the way, the youngster hasn't called off the engagement with Xian'er, right?"
Seemingly reminded of something, the sect master quickly asked.
"This..."
Dan Taixuan's eyes fell on Dan Taixian.
"No... not yet!"
Dan Taixian said in a low voice.
At this moment, for some reason, she too couldn't help but feel a trace of anticipation in her heart.
Not having called off the engagement meant that the young man would still marry her!
