When Li Xuanmen slowly walked to the door of the Immortal’s Destiny shop.

He happened to see Wang Yuyan and Zhu Zhao leaving!

Li Xuanmen pursed his lips and felt disdain in his heart.

But then, he adjusted his expression and knocked on the door of the Immortal’s Destiny shop with a smile!

Knock, knock, knock!

“Hmm? Miss Wang and Mr. Zhu, is there anything else?”

Liu Changgong’s voice came through the door.

Li Xuanmen smiled obsequiously and said, “Senior, it’s me! Li Xuanmen…”

Creak!

The door opened, and Liu Changgong’s figure was revealed with a helpless expression!

Liu Changgong really had nothing to say to this Li Xuanmen and that Yu Linglong!

These two were all useless chess pieces, and their addictions were not small either!

They were typical noobs who loved to play!

However, Li Xuanmen had found him a pretty good opponent last time, which made him very happy.

Since Li Xuanmen was here today, Liu Changgong did not have any intention of stopping him from entering.

“So it’s Young Master Li. Come In!”

“Sigh! It’s not Young Master. Senior, you can just call me Xiao Li!”

Liu Changgong did not decline. He nodded his head and said, “Xiao Li, who was the person who used your voice transmission talisman to play chess with me yesterday? I would like to play a few more games with them!”

Li Xuanmen was slightly taken aback. Didn’t this Senior know that I used his hand to break the unfettered chess game?

Could there be some deeper meaning behind his words?

After thinking about it carefully, Li Xuanmen came to a sudden realization!

This Senior actually felt that he was not done yet. Not only did he want to play chess with the artifact spirit, he even wanted to directly talk to the Carefree Grand Sage!

One had to know that the Grand Sage was a great figure who had stepped into the Dao through chess and ascended to the Heavens!

This Senior Liu had already reached such a height?

Furthermore, he had never heard of the Carefree Grand Sage’s reputation…

This…

Could it be that Senior Liu did not put the Carefree Grand Sage in his eyes at all?!

Just how terrifying was his strength?!

Li Xuanmen suddenly remembered that there was a record in the Imperial Secret Manual!

In this record, it was written about a top-secret immortal. It was left behind by a great immortal who had an old relationship with the Great Xia Kingdom!

Legend had it that when an immortal cultivator reached the Transcending Tribulation stage, they would experience Nine Tribulations and undergo a rebirth. They would ascend to the immortal world!

However!

There were still some people with extremely terrifying strength, and even the Heavenly Dao was unable to restrain them!

They could stay in the mortal world for a long time, and they didn’t need to care about their realm!

This kind of mighty figure was known as a Red Dust Immortal!

A Red Dust Immortal’s strength could no longer be calculated with a specific realm!

If they wanted to be mortals, then their entire bodies would indeed not have any spirit energy!

But if they wanted to become immortals, it would only be a matter of a thought!

Looking around the room filled with immortal items, he thought of Senior Liu’s terrifying chess skills and the terrifying scene when he played chess!

Li Xuanmen had completely confirmed it!

This Senior Liu was definitely the kind of immortal who was unfettered in the mortal world and was not restricted by the Heavenly realm!

‘Meeting such a Senior was a fated opportunity for me, Li Xuanmen!’

At this moment, Li Xuanmen had made up his mind!

He was going to stay here and not leave!

Li Xuanmen placed the roast chicken and wine on the table and cupped his hands respectfully. He smiled.

“Senior, you must be joking. That person has already…”

He pointed to the sky, meaning that the Carefree Grand Sage had already ascended.

‘If you want to play chess with him, I’m afraid you’ll have to ascend with a single thought.’

Liu Changgong was slightly taken aback. He thought to himself, so he’s already dead…

Then, he shook his head and smiled.

“I didn’t expect it to be like this. This person’s chess skills are extraordinary. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone with such chess skills, but since… That’s a pity.”

Long time…

Li Xuanmen was shocked once again!

How many years had this senior been playing in the mortal world?

One had to know that the Carefree Grand Sage was a figure from ten thousand years ago!

In Senior Liu’s eyes, such a figure was someone he had not seen for a long time?

For a moment, in Li Xuanmen’s heart, Liu Changgong had become a true immortal who had played in the human world for millions of years.

“Such an immortal probably wouldn’t care what an ant-like cultivator like me says… No wonder Senior Liu would treat a treasure like the Fire Essence as something to keep warm!”

With this thought in mind, Li Xuanmen raised his head and saw a lustrous pearl!

Instantly, his mind buzzed!

“This, this, this… The West Ocean Night Illumination Pearl?!”

Li Xuanmen almost couldn’t control his expression!

Seeing the West Ocean Night Illumination Pearl, Li Xuanmen wouldn’t lose his composure like this!

What surprised him was that such a precious treasure was obviously treated as an object of illumination by Senior Liu!

There were even a few small ropes wrapped around it and hung on the wall!

It was Liu Changgong’s dexterity. When Wang Yuyan and Zhu Zhao were still around, he had made a small basket made of ropes!

When he looked at the threads, Li Xuanmen’s eyebrows jumped!

When he looked at the threads, he actually felt dizzy!

Needless to say, this was also an item that could seize the destiny of the Heavens and Earth!

Li Xuanmen sighed and bowed respectfully.

“Senior, I came here today to thank you for your help yesterday. Secondly, I want to ask you about your chess skills!”

“Lastly, I took out a jar of fine wine from my house and want to share it with you… Please don’t mind it!”

Liu Changgong’s wine skills were already at the peak. What wine could catch his eye now?

But since it was Li Xuanmen’s good intentions, Liu Changgong could not reject it.

He nodded and said plainly, “Alright, let’s try your fine wine. But we won’t be playing chess today!”

Liu Changgong was really afraid of this stupid chess basket!

Li Xuanmen was shocked. He thought that his actions had caused Liu Changgong to be unhappy. His eyes were filled with fear!

“Senior, Xuanmen sincerely wishes to ask you for your chess skills. Please don’t be angry!”

As he said this, Li Xuanmen wanted to kneel down and apologize!

Although he was well-versed in the hearts of people and the way he dealt with the world, he naturally did not dare to figure things out when faced with a great immortal like Liu Changgong who had lived for millions of years!

When Liu Changgong heard his words, he was stunned.

“Xiao Li, what do you mean? I don’t want to play chess with you. It’s not that I’m angry, but your chess skills are indeed… Hmm, it’s a long story!”

Liu Changgong smiled and said, “My chess skills have already reached the peak. Playing chess with an expert naturally has its pleasures. However, I can’t let go of myself when playing chess with you. It’s even more uncomfortable for you. Why don’t you not play!”

“Isn’t it good to have good wine and roast chicken?”

After saying this, Li Xuanmen finally relaxed.

However, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.

This Senior’s chess skills had indeed reached the level of seizing the fortunes of the Heavens and Earth. It was only right that he was unwilling to play chess with a weakling like him.

With that thought in mind, Li Xuanmen heard Liu Changgong continue.

“Although I can’t play chess with you, I can play the zither with the wine and roast chicken!”
