"This... doesn't seem to have anything to do with extravagance, does it? Shouldn't a ministerial-level leader be equipped with a Six Realms Telescope? A ministerial-level leader, after all, should frequently have matters to discuss with the Six Realms, right?" Mo Guangmu still felt it was perfectly reasonable.
"Can't we just use a landline to contact you? Why do we have to use such an expensive thing? There must be at least a hundred ministerial-level officials in the Heavenly Court, right? That's hundreds of millions of merits! Do you know how hard it is for an ordinary little immortal to accumulate some merits?" Wei Zheng angrily pressed.
"This...this is completely different, okay? This...the Heavenly Court leaders also need some dignity, right? What era is this? Do we still need to use a landline to make a phone call? Besides, we have landlines, and secure phone numbers..." Mo Guangmu was still patiently explaining to Wei Zheng.
"Well... time is of the essence. Let's discuss official expenses when you two have the opportunity to become Heavenly Emperors. Let's set off immediately." Seeing that the two were arguing and it was unclear when it would end, Wang Yao immediately interrupted.
He suddenly realized why Wei Zheng was so active in the Xiankou group. This guy was definitely a weirdo who would give his boss a headache no matter which unit he worked for. He must have been sidelined at work and had very little to do, so he went to the Xiankou group to stir up trouble.
He was excited by a cell phone used entirely for official business by a ministerial-level leader. If this phone had landed at the Heavenly Court's office in the human world, for example, the Yunling tour arranged after that office meeting, wouldn't this guy surnamed Wei have fought with Lü Xian? A publicly funded tour, could Wei Zheng tolerate it?
Damn it, if I ever become a leader in Heaven, I'd better remember to stay far away from this guy. What I fear most is this kind of hothead who's intolerant of any wrongdoing and full of righteous indignation. Wang Yao secretly warned himself.
So the people in the room parted ways. Mo Guangmu, Qin Su, and Wuying went to the entrance of the God and Demon Forging, while Wang Yao and Hui Shuo, accompanied by Wei Zheng, went straight to the front line of the Bird Return Ridge of the Unyielding Divine Realm.
After leaving the Sun-Shooting Divine Tower, Wang Yao took out the "Immortal's Sorrow," while Hui Shuo took the Cloud-Swallowing Beast out of his arms, seemingly wanting to find a spacious place to make it bigger so he could ride it.
Wang Yao hadn't seen the Cloud-Swallowing Beast for a long time, and he hesitated, thinking he should ride with Hui Shuo and take the opportunity to rebuild his relationship with the beast. He hesitated for a moment, but Wei Zheng gently patted his shoulder.
"You want to come along too? This beast recognizes people, it might not let you ride." Wang Yao pointed to the Cloud-Swallowing Beast, trying to dissuade Wei Zheng from riding with him and Hui Shuo.
In fact, the Cloud-Swallowing Beast could easily carry three people without any problem. It's just that ever since it saw through Wei Zheng's true colors, it has felt somewhat uncomfortable with him and is not very willing to travel with him.
"The Cloud-Swallowing Beast is indeed a precious mount, and your magic weapon is also quite good, with a very unique design," Wei Zheng said with a smile, pointing at "Immortal's Sorrow." "However, there's no need to trouble them on this journey. You can all put your treasures away, and I will take you there."
"You... take us?" Wang Yao was a little confused.
“Yes, the Unyielding Divine Realm is too far from here, and the current situation is extremely urgent, so there is no time to lose. Even if your mounts are the most magnificent, flying there like this will still be a waste of time,” Wei Zheng said.
"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Wang Yao put away "Immortal's Sorrow" and then instructed Hui Shuo to put away the Cloud-Swallowing Beast. The creature was very affectionate towards Wang Yao, licking his face until it was wet before reluctantly crawling into Hui Shuo's arms.
Once Wang Yao and Hui Shuo were ready, Wei Zheng stretched out his two hands and placed them on his shoulders, one on each side. Immediately, Wang Yao felt his body lighten, and the whole world suddenly stopped in front of him. It turned out that Wei Zheng could also use "teleportation"!
The world seemed to stand still for a moment before switching to a tree-lined mountain path. Listening to the birdsong that suddenly filled his ears and the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves, Wang Yao guessed that this person was probably similar to Hua Gu who had led him and Hui Shuo on their journey. They were probably tired along the way and needed to rest before continuing.
“We’ve arrived. There’s a sentry post not far ahead. Since we’re new here, it would be best if we went over and said hello.” Unexpectedly, Wei Zheng said to Wang Yao.
"We've arrived?" Wang Yao was stunned for a moment. Back then, Hua Gu had taken him and Hui Shuo back to Hua Du from Cai Du by "teleportation," and they had stopped to rest for quite a while along the way. As for the fairy taking him to the underworld by "teleportation," that was also because they had stopped and started along the way, so he didn't find it particularly clever.
“Yes, I traveled quite a bit through the realm of gods and demons back then, so I’m fairly familiar with the geography,” Wei Zheng replied.
"Um... what realm are you at now?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask. After all, the Heavenly Court was still a place that valued realms. Judging from Wei Zheng's teleportation ability, his realm must be far higher than Hua Tuo's, but he didn't seem to hold any high-ranking position in the Heavenly Court.
This aroused Wang Yao's strong curiosity.
"I'm ashamed to say that I've been an immortal for countless years, and I'm still only at the Nascent Soul stage," Wei Zheng said with a smile. Although he said he was ashamed, Wang Yao couldn't see any shame on his face.
"Nascent Soul? How is that possible?" Wang Yao was stunned. Hua Gu was indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator! But in terms of "teleportation" alone, Hua Gu was far inferior to Wei Zheng.
"The main problem is the system. I insist on abandoning the system to cultivate, which makes the early stages of advancement more difficult, but it gets much better after the Nascent Soul stage. This is also why I didn't participate in the God and Demon Forging. The God and Demon Forging is suitable for immortals who have always relied on the system to cultivate, but I don't need it."
Wei Zheng smiled and explained to Wang Yao.
"You...you can do that? How...how did you do that?"
Wang Yao was dumbfounded. He never expected that there was such a ruthless immortal as Wei Zheng among the immortals. He had a system to use, but he actually abandoned the system and relied entirely on himself to cultivate.
