Just then, Xiao Qi suddenly shouted at the soldier leader, "Didn't you hear what my brother said?"
"Immediately restrain him and force him to hand over the official seal, or kill him on the spot!"
Upon hearing Xiao Qi's command, the soldier leader replied without hesitation, "Yes, Lord Qilinzi!"
Before he finished speaking, a powerful aura of a quasi-immortal king swept over the Immovable Emperor Clan like a surging wave, instantly locking him in place.
Faced with such powerful pressure, the expression of the Immovable Emperor Clan's successor changed drastically, and his body trembled involuntarily.
Although he was extremely angry, he knew that the gap in strength between himself and a Quasi-Immortal King was as vast as an insurmountable chasm, and he was simply no match for him.
Faced with such absolute power, he could only helplessly throw the ranking seal to Yuan Zhexian, while viciously uttering a harsh threat: "My Dongbu Imperial Clan will never let this go, and my brother will certainly not let you off the hook!"
After saying that, he transformed into a dazzling ray of light and sped away like a shooting star, disappearing from the spot in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhexian quickly absorbed the seal of the Immovable Emperor Clan into his own seal.
At this point, including the list seals previously collected by the Qilin Emperor's son, Yuan Zhexian now possesses multiple list seals.
At this moment, Yuan Zhexian was surprised to find that his ranking had risen to around 1,000, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
His gaze then turned to the woman in the white dress, filled with doubt, and he asked, "What exactly is going on?"
The woman in the white dress smiled slightly and replied softly, "Young master, I am a goddess of the Linglong Imperial Sect, named Xuan Nu."
As she spoke, she pointed to the woman in green standing to the side and introduced her, "This is my maid, named Qingxuan."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian couldn't help but think to himself, "The Linglong Imperial Sect of the Eastern Immortal Continent? This woman is actually the goddess of the Imperial Sect!"
He had heard of this mysterious sect, but he never expected to meet its goddess here.
Then, Xuan Nu continued, "There are two major factions within my Linglong Imperial Sect."
"One is the Immortal Faction, and the other is the Imperial Faction. The two factions have always been secretly fighting each other."
"And I belong to the Immortal Sect."
"In my Linglong Imperial Clan, there is a Linglong Forbidden Land. Every Goddess and Empress will enter the Forbidden Land to compete for the peerless immortal techniques or immortal scriptures left behind by my Linglong Imperial Clan."
"However, the forbidden area is haunted by the spirit of the Forbidden Land left by the Ancestor, which greatly increases the difficulty of our struggle."
"Moreover, the spirit of that forbidden land is exceptionally powerful. In the very beginning, it almost caused the goddess and empress of our Linglong Imperial Sect to perish there."
"Therefore, every goddess or empress of our Linglong Imperial Clan will seek a companion."
"Firstly, it's to fight against the spirit of the forbidden area; secondly, it's to prevent the opponent from obtaining unparalleled immortal techniques."
She paused briefly, then continued, "But this time it is even more important. What the Empress and I are vying for is the supreme immortal emperor scripture of my Linglong Emperor Sect—the Linglong Immortal Scripture."
"And the winner will succeed as the next sect leader of the Linglong Imperial Sect."
"And the elder brother of that Immovable Emperor Clan's eldest son is the Immovable Emperor Clan's divine son!"
“He has long admired me and has always wanted to become my companion.”
"So, he comes to see me almost every now and then, it's so annoying!"
Xuan Nu also sighed helplessly.
"He is currently in seclusion, and the Linglong Forbidden Land is about to open."
"That's why he sent his brother to persuade me to agree to become his companion."
Yuan Zhexian explained.
"However, we can only choose one companion in our lifetime."
"Therefore, I am also taking this matter very seriously."
Xuan Nu said with a serious expression.
As soon as Xuan Nu finished speaking, Yuan Zhe Xian immediately said, "I see, I understand now."
Then, Xuan Nu paused for a moment, and then said, "I can sense that you, young master, possess extremely terrifying energy within your body, which is something that ordinary people cannot possess."
"Therefore, I sincerely invite you, young master, to become my companion."
"What do you think, young master?"
Xuan Nu gazed intently at Yuan Zhe Xian, seemingly filled with anticipation for him.
However, Yuan Zhexian answered without hesitation, "Goddess, I'm sorry, I have no interest in this matter."
After saying that, Yuan Zhexian seemed unwilling to continue the topic, so he said again, "Goddess, I still have some things to take care of, so I will take my leave now."
Before he finished speaking, he and Xiao Qi vanished from the spot in an instant.
Just then, Qingxuan, who was standing next to Xuan Nu, suddenly spoke up: "Goddess, I have never seen anyone refuse you before!"
Her tone seemed to carry a hint of surprise and disbelief.
Then, Qingxuan continued, "Although this young master is indeed very handsome, he's too arrogant!"
Clearly, Qingxuan was somewhat dissatisfied with Yuan Zhexian's refusal.
However, the goddess Xuan Nu was not angry. Instead, she smiled slightly and said softly, "Isn't that quite unique?"
Her words revealed a hint of admiration for Yuan Zhexian.
Then, as if talking to herself, the Mystic Maiden murmured, "In any case, my companion on the path must be this person..."
