Chapter 262 - The Day of the Ceremony (2/2)

”Master, we should go.” Zhou Ziyun reminded.

”Okay, okay. I'm not going to see the two of them for a long time. Give me a moment!”

”Come on!”

”Master, we're going to be late!”

After much complaining, he finally relented. He gave Wu Qianyu and Long Yifei apologetic looks before being dragged out of the room by the others.

The Small Wind Pagoda was a buzz of activity. There were many guests leaving at the same time, all headed to the same destination. The location of the ceremony was a short distance away on the ground and there was a constant stream of flying boats and immortals flying back and forth.

It was an open-aired, circular amphitheater at the heart of the Sky District. An array of tall towers surrounded the place from all sides as if to protect it. It gave the aura of the most holy and regal location of the whole city. The concentration of spiritual energy here was so strong that if one was not at the Spirit Initiate Realm, it would crush their organs and directly kill them!

The amphitheater was not as large as a stadium but it was enough to seat a few thousand. The seats were rather crowded, allowing everyone to see everyone else and for those familiar to greet each other. There was a raised stage at the center that was big enough to serve as a dueling ring or to hold a ceremony.

When Chen Wentian arrived, he didn't immediately attract much attention. There were at least forty or fifty immortals here and he was still a newcomer. Only a few sideways looks were cast in his direction.

He flew with Lin Qingcheng and Zhou Ziyun beside him while the others were inside Turtle Can Fly. The carriage was really too small and he didn't want to mess up their outfits. Lin Qingcheng and Zhou Ziyun were also his first and second disciples. They had seniority and it was only right for them to accompany him.

He landed on the edge of the amphitheater and the others got out. Once lined up in order, they descended the steps, heading for their seats.

There was a sudden hush as everyone present noticed their entrance.

Then the mayhem started.
