Divine King of Honour-Chapter 1431: Gongsun Siblings

Chapter 1431: Chapter 1431: Gongsun Siblings
"Are you going out on a mission?"
In the Sky-reaching World, Ji Qingyu looked at Xu Nian in surprise and asked.
Xuanyuan Qingling also furrowed her brows slightly.
"Yes, I’m planning to go out for some training, but I will still enter this Trial World whenever I have time. I came today just to let you know," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Xu Nian, I heard that the Taichu Immortal Emperor met with you but didn’t accept you as a Direct Disciple, saying there was a problem with your cultivation?" Ji Qingyu asked.
"Yes, indeed there were some issues. I want to use this mission to adjust," Xu Nian nodded and said.
"If you’re unhappy in Shendang Mountain, you can come to our Immortal Sovereign Hall. I assure you my master will accept you as a Direct Disciple," Ji Qingyu said.
Xu Nian was amused yet helpless upon hearing this.
How could he betray Shendang Mountain so easily?
"Husband, where is this mission taking you?" Xuanyuan Qingling stepped forward and asked.
"To the extreme southern lands. It’s an escort mission, so it shouldn’t be too dangerous. Don’t worry," Xu Nian said with a smile.
He knew Xuanyuan Qingling was worried about him.
"Be careful then. When my cultivation reaches the Immortal King Realm, I’ll come to Shendang Mountain to find you," Xuanyuan Qingling said.
"Okay!" Xu Nian nodded.
Then, after chatting with Xuanyuan Qingling for a while, he exited the Sky-reaching World.
The Trial World still had six years to go, so there was no need to rush.
Perhaps the last year is when the real trial begins.
During this period, the main goal is still to enhance his own strength.
After realizing how difficult it was to become a god, Xu Nian finally set his own goal.
And that is to strive to accumulate enough to one day become a god naturally.
Of course, during this period, he also had to try to find a godhood.
In this way, if Xuanyuan Qingling and the others can’t become gods naturally in the future, having enough godhoods could allow them to enter the Divine World.
After some simple preparations, Xu Nian directly went to the city of Shunling City, located on the outskirts of Shendang Mountain.
The three members of the Gongsun Family were precisely here.
In Shunling City, inside an inn, three people were gathered at this moment in a fine guest room.
An elder and two youths.
The elder’s cultivation was not low, having reached the Early Stage Immortal King Level, exuding the might of an Immortal King with every gesture, his strength was not ordinary.
The young siblings were not weak either, with the brother’s strength being slightly higher, having reached the Golden Immortal Middle Stage.
The sister only had a cultivation of Golden Immortal Early Stage.
Judging by their ages, they should only be a few hundred years old.
To reach such strength at this age definitely qualifies them as geniuses.
"Grandpa Ling, we’re ten billion miles away from the family. Can we really arrive safely?" The young man asked worriedly.
"Don’t worry, Young Master. I’ve already applied for an escort mission from Shendang Mountain. They will send powerhouses to escort us, and we will definitely arrive safely," the elder said with a smile.
Instead, he was somewhat respectful towards the young man.
"What level will the powerhouses from Shendang Mountain be? Immortal Sovereigns?" the sister asked curiously.
"Miss, with our financial resources, we can’t hire Immortal Sovereigns. We’ll have to hire an Immortal King Level powerhouse. It should be an Immortal King Peak Level powerhouse," the elder replied with a smile.
"Immortal King Peak? The Sima Family bastards probably won’t leave me and my sister alone. Can an Immortal King Peak withstand them?" the brother frowned and said.
"It should be possible. Our return is being done in secret. The Sima Family might not know, and even if they do, they may not guess our route. Don’t worry, Young Master, I will deliver you and Miss safely, even at the cost of my life," the elder said.
The young man didn’t respond but still looked worried.
The Sima Family had powerful Immortal Emperor experts, as well as three Immortal Sovereign experts.
If the Sima Family really sent Immortal Sovereign experts, he and his sister would almost certainly perish.
"Don’t worry, brother. Everything will be fine, and we can finally go home," the sister said excitedly with a smile.
The young man gently patted his sister’s head.
But his heart wasn’t at ease.
Only he knew the danger of this trip. The Sima Family would never let them go easily, especially his sister.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"The powerhouses from Shendang Mountain should be here," the elder said with a smile.
Then he waved his hand, and the door opened.
However, when they saw Xu Nian standing outside, their brows furrowed slightly.
"This young man, who are you looking for?" the elder asked curiously.
"You should be the clients for this escort mission, right? My name is Xu Nian, and I’m the one from Shendang Mountain taking this mission," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Uh?" The elder was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then sized Xu Nian up, his brows furrowing even more.
The young man next to him also frowned deeply.
But the girl curiously scrutinized Xu Nian.
"Are you the Immortal King Peak powerhouse? Why do you look younger than me?" the girl asked curiously.
Xu Nian smiled at the question.
"I’m not an Immortal King, let alone an Immortal King Peak. I’m just a Golden Immortal Middle Stage," Xu Nian responded with a smile.
"Golden Immortal Middle Stage? Oh, that’s still a level higher than me," the girl nodded.
The elder and the young man exchanged glances, both filled with doubt in their eyes.
"Xu Nian, young brother, is it just you for this mission?" the elder asked curiously.
"Yes, Elder," Xu Nian nodded.
"Grandpa Ling, didn’t you say you issued an Earth-level mission? Could it be you made a mistake?" The young man asked urgently.
"I didn’t make a mistake. I indeed issued an Earth-level mission. Could it be that Shendang Mountain made a mistake?" the elder said, somewhat puzzled.
Xu Nian knew this result would happen.
"Elder Gongsun, you didn’t make a mistake, and neither did Shendang Mountain. I indeed accepted an Earth-level mission," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"An Earth-level mission? And they let a Golden Immortal Middle Stage come?" The elder was somewhat displeased.
The young man was even angrier, "Is Shendang Mountain making a fool of us? Are they taking advantage of us? No way, I want to settle this with them."
"Please wait, Young Master," the elder hurriedly stopped him.
Although the Gongsun Family was not a small force, compared to a giant like Shendang Mountain, it was no more than an egg hitting a rock.
Moreover, he didn’t believe Shendang Mountain would jest with them for no reason.
"Xu Nian, young brother, are you aware of the risk of this mission? Without Immortal King Peak Level cultivation, it’s a dead end," the elder looked at Xu Nian and said.
"Of course I know. But since I dare to take on this task, I’m confident I can escort you safely to Tianwu City," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Nonsense! As a Golden Immortal Middle Stage, what makes you dare to say that?" The young man was furious.
The elder also furrowed his brows, showing a serious expression.
A Golden Immortal Middle Stage, even weaker than himself, was indeed quite ridiculous.
Not to mention, he spent as much as a thousand drops of Fifth-grade Immortal Marrow.
With so many Immortal Marrows, one could hire many Golden Immortals, not just one.
