FIRST IMMORTAL OF THE SWORD

Chapter 1532 - The Seven Stars Immortal Assembly



Chapter 1532 - The Seven Stars Immortal Assembly

That dazzling, stinging arc of divine light stopped in the sky above Cloud Stream Village.

Three figures stood atop it, two men and one woman.

The woman was the leader of the group. She was an icy but extraordinary beauty in rainbow raiment, like an immortal beauty from on high.

“Cloud Stream Village....” The woman looked dazed. “It’s been ten years, but it hasn’t changed much at all. I just wonder how my grandfather and little sister are doing...”

With that, she stepped off the arc of light and drifted to the ground. Her companions followed shortly after.

Meng Qi and many of the villagers had already been startled by their arrival, and they now rushed over.

When they saw the woman in rainbow raiment descend like an immortal from on high, they were unwittingly astonished and ashamed of their own unsightliness.

“This humble old man greets you, esteemed cultivators!” Meng Qi approached and bowed in greeting.

But then, the woman in rainbow raiment said, “Don’t you recognize me, Uncle Meng?”

“Hm?” Meng Qi was briefly stunned, but then, he seemed to realize something. He couldn’t help but blurt, “Are... Are you A’Ning?”

A hint of a smile appeared on the woman’s icy face. She nodded. “That’s right.”

Boom!

The villagers were instantly in uproar. This extraordinary, unearthly beauty was A’Ning, the girl who’d left the village with an immortal a decade ago!

The change was far too enormous!

“Uncle Meng, where are my grandfather and A’Li?” The woman in rainbow raiment looked around.

Meng Qi’s heart clenched, and he said in a low voice, “A’Ning, it’s a long story. You only just returned. How about you come into the village, and I tell you inside?”

The woman in rainbow raiment nodded. “Alright.”

The group promptly followed Meng Qi inside.

....

“A’Li, come quickly! Your big sister has returned!” An urgent voice rang out from beyond the cave.

A’Li was listening attentively as Su Yi guided her cultivation, but when she heard this, she froze in place, as if unable to believe it.

Her frail frame suddenly started quivering.

She had almost no impression of her big sister A’Ning whatsoever. By the time she was old enough to understand her surroundings, her big sister had already left with that immortal.

Her grandfather had often spoken of her big sister. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have even known she had a big sister in this world.

Only now did Su Yi realize that the arc of light that had torn through the sky earlier was A’Li’s big sister.

“That’s right. Come quickly! The village headman and the others are waiting for you,” the villager cried out frantically.

“Big Brother Su, I....” A’Li picked up her charcoal as if to write something, but she was obviously hesitant.

She’d imagined what it would be like to reunite with her sister on numerous occasions, but now that her sister was really here, she didn’t know what to do. She was a bundle of nerves.

“I’ll go with you,” Su Yi said warmly.

A’Li instantly felt a massive weight lift from her shoulders. She nodded.

...

Cloud Stream Village.

An ancient residence.

Su Yi sat casually in a chair, while Meng Qi stood off to the side.

Two men sat not far away. One was a promising young man in silver robes. The other had a fierce gaze, and he was dressed in dark armor. According to Meng Qi, they’d both come here alongside A’Ning.

Su Yi glanced at them, but he couldn’t be bothered to pay any further attention to him. A pair of World Kings, that was all. There was no need for concern.

The two of them disregarded Su Yi too.

It didn’t matter that Meng Qi introduced him with the utmost solemnity, or that he’d told them how Su Yi had resolved their dispute with the Purple Cloud Sect. The two of them just nodded perfunctorily and said nothing.

For a while, the atmosphere was a bit stifled.

After A’Li arrived, her sister led her away for a private chat.

Time slipped by, but the atmosphere was increasingly tense. This was Meng Qi’s house, but he felt as uncomfortable as if he were seated on a bed of needles.

Finally, A’Ning and A’Li returned.

When he saw the two of them appear shoulder-by-shoulder, the silver-robed man rose and laughed. “If I hadn’t seen it with my own two eyes, I would never have dared believe you were blood sisters.”

In terms of both appearance and disposition, the disparity was enormous.

The elder sister was tall, slender, and dressed in rainbow raiment. She was an aloof, unparalleled, striking beauty.

The younger sister was dressed in worn-out robes, and she was scrawny and frail. Her skin was tan from frequent exposure to the elements, and even her hair was dry and yellowed. Her features could at best be described as somewhat delicate. Standing beside her elder sister, she indeed seemed lackluster.

Su Yi glanced at the man in silver robes. He said nothing, but in his heart, he labeled the man “brainless.”

Meng Qi obviously felt the same way. His brow furrowed. How could you say something like that to their faces? You’re only going to upset them both.

Just as he suspected, A’Li stood there in reserved, uncomfortable silence, while A’Ning said coldly, “My little sister grew up in poverty, and she’s never really cultivated. She’s still young, but who knows how much she’s suffered over the years? She’s naturally different from me. But now that I’m here, I’ll never let her suffer any mistreatment ever again.”

The silver-robed man froze, then realized he’d misspoken. He said sheepishly, “You’re absolutely right, Senior Apprentice Sister!”

The man in dark armor smiled and tried to play peacemaker. “Senior Apprentice Sister, please let Junior Apprentice Brother Qian Yu off the hook. He’s always spoken without a filter.”

A’Ning subtly inclined his head, then walked up to Su Yi and solemnly greeted him. “Fellow Daoist Su, thank you for looking after A’Li!”

There was no doubt about it. A’Li had already told her big sister about Su Yi.

“A’Li saved me first,” said Su Yi. “It’s only right that I help her. No need to be so polite.”

He sat there, unmoving. The sight made A’Ning’s two apprentice brothers furrow their brows. What’s up with him? He has no manners at all!

A moment later, the silver-robed man coughed dryly. “Friend, allow me to introduce you. This is our Senior Apprentice Sister A’Ning. She’s a core disciple of our Jade Firmament Immortal Sect, and a prominent member of the younger generation. She’s even Immortal Mo Chi’s closed-door disciple, and three years ago, she joined the list of the province’s ten great outstanding talents!”

His voice was full of utter pride.

Meng Qi gasped.

The Jade Firmament Immortal Sect was one of the Jing Province’s top seven immortal sects. Their legacies were incomparably ancient, and their ranks included numerous immortals.

Amongst the Jing Province’s factions, they were as radiant as the midday sun!

Meng Qi was just a villager from the sticks, but he was still fairly knowledgeable, and the Jade Firmament Immortal Sect’s reputation was far too impressive. How could he not have heard of them?

But A’Ning had surpassed the rest of their disciples to become one of the most prominent figures of the younger generation in just ten short years. An immortal had even taken her as their closed-door disciple. What kind of shocking talent did someone need to shine so brightly?

“Is our Cloud Stream Village really going to give rise to an immortal?” Meng Qi was so excited that his voice quavered. Some of the older villagers even wept with delight.

A’Ning shook her head. “I’m still far from reaching the Immortal Dao.”

“Senior Apprentice Sister, you needn’t be modest,” laughed the silver-robed man. “You stepped onto the Path of Heaven’s Ascension in just ten years, and the entire sect recognizes you as a rare genius. Proving your Dao and becoming an immortal is entirely within the realm of possibility.”

Then, he gazed playfully at Su Yi. “Sir, might I ask which sect you’re an expert of? The Jing Province’s seven great immortal sects are the Falling Cloud Immortal Sect, the Profound Transformation Daoist Sect, Song of Heaven Divine Mountain, the Northern Frost Sword Sect, the Violet Heavens Divine Palace, the Chaos Origin Daoist Sect, and our Jade Firmament Immortal Sect. I know all seven sects’ core disciples.

“But I’ve never seen an outstanding elite like you, Fellow Daoist. Do you... perhaps have extraordinary origins?”

His voice was tinged with mockery. He was deliberately building Su Yi up just to embarrass him later.

All eyes turned toward Su Yi. Not even Meng Qi, A’Li, and the other villagers knew where Su Yi had come from.

Against all expectations, Su Yi disregarded the silver-robed man completely and said, “A’Li, I’m heading back. Don’t forget to come to my place to cultivate at nightfall.”

For the past few weeks, he’d been instructing A’Li’s cultivation every day at sunrise and nightfall.

When it came to transmitting the Dao, Su YI wasn’t just extremely strict with himself. He demanded a lot from his student, too.

His goal was simple. The girl had saved his life. He naturally had to help her establish the firmest possible foundations in the Grand Dao.

“Wait.” Before Su Yi could leave, A’Ning interjected, “I came here to take my little sister away. I’m going to try to get her immortal fortune at the Seven Stars Immortal Assembly.

“Furthermore, we plan to set off today.” A’Ning paused, a complicated light in her eyes. “But she says she wants to hear your opinion first.”

Su Yi was stunned. He looked at A’Li.

A’Li hurriedly walked over and started writing. “Big Brother Su, Big Sister says that on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, at the Seven Stars Immortal Assembly, experts of all seven of the province’s top sects will come in person to attend. It’s one of the most important events in the Jing Province.”

Su Yi laughed. “If you want to go, I naturally won’t stop you.”

A’Li shook her head, then wrote, “That’s not it. I want you to come with us. With your talent, I’m sure you can earn some immortal fortune too!”

Her bright phoenix eyes looked at him eagerly.

Su Yi froze, stunned. Warmth rose in his heart. She’s actually trying to help me earn immortal fortune too. How precious!

But then, the silver-robed man couldn’t help but interject, “Miss A’Li, the Seven Stars Immortal Assembly is one of the grandest gatherings in the province. Not even we can bring just anyone to participate.”

Reading between the lines, he was saying he didn’t want to take Su Yi with them.

A’Li bit her lip, walked up to A’Ning, then wrote, “Big Sister, if Big Brother Su doesn’t go, I’m not going either.”

A’Ning fell briefly silent, then said to Su Yi, “You did my little sister a big favor. Both logically and emotionally speaking, I cannot possibly refuse. If you’re not opposed, please come with us.”

Su Yi’s eyebrows rose. Why does she make it sound like I’m a charity case?

He was just about to shake his head and refuse when he saw the eagerness in A’Li’s eyes. In the end, he laughed and nodded. “Very well. I’ll accompany you.”

A’Li instantly broke into a heartfelt smile, so broad that her phoenix eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Su Yi smiled too. He only cared about A’Li. The rest, he couldn’t be bothered with.

When A’Ning saw this, she frowned, but in the end, she said nothing about it. She just said, “Less than two weeks remain until the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. We cannot afford delays, so let’s set off immediately.”
