Gu Changsheng conjured numerous God-tiered Swords from rippling voids, bestowing them upon thousands of cultivators. Believing the swords to be real, the crowd rejoiced, only for Gu Changsheng to reveal they were mere bone swords and would vanish. He explained that true fulfillment in Bliss City comes from the Lord of Blissful Wish, prompting the cultivators to rush towards Bliss Square to make their wishes.

Upon hearing Nangong Liuyun’s words.

Luo Li tilted her head and asked with a smile, "Sister Nangong, is your wish to find the lost treasures of your family?"

"Yes, this treasure has been lost for many years, I must find a way to recover it..."

Nangong Liuyun nodded solemnly and said.

After she finished speaking.

She took a deep breath, held Luo Li’s hand, and walked quickly forward.

"The Ancient Demon Violin..."

Watching the backs of the two, Ye Yun was lost in thought.

It turned out that Nangong Liuyun entered the Spirit Abyss Ghost River because of the Ancient Demon Violin.

But wasn’t the Ancient Demon Violin thrown into the Ancient Demon Abyss by the then mentally unstable Nangong Jade?

However, the Ancient Demon Violin was later taken by someone unknown and has been missing ever since.

"This little girl is really grasping at straws..."

Ye Yun smiled lightly and winked at Mu Qing, the two slowly followed.

"Master, what was that Void Ripple just now?"

Mu Qing asked while walking.

"It’s kind of a rule formed by Great Divine Power..."

Ye Yun thought for a moment and said.

The entire Bliss City is under this Great Divine Power.

So the cultivators living in the city are under the control of Divine Skills, allowing them to have their wishes fulfilled.

Whatever they want, they can pluck it from the void with a stretch of their hand.

However.

This Divine Skill is a kind of Illusion Divine Power.

It has anesthetized a group of pitiable cultivators.

These poor souls stubbornly believe they are immortal, but in reality, they are no longer truly alive.

"Oh!"

Mu Qing replied with interest in her eyes.

The master personally intervening this time.

No matter how mysterious the mastermind behind Bliss City is, they certainly won’t escape.

She’s also looking forward to her master’s confrontation with the mastermind.

The street stretched straight ahead, and the old man who had run out first reached Bliss Square in less than half a stick of incense time.

"So this is Bliss Square, where is the Lord of Blissful Wish?"

The old man looked around but saw no shadows of people.

The entire Bliss Square was empty, not a single cultivator nor blood-robed person.

Behind Bliss Square stood a tall, majestic palace full of exotic charm, resplendent with gold and jade.

The plaque on the palace was inscribed with the three big characters "Bliss Palace".

"Let’s wait a bit."

Looking at the palace, the old man was lost in thought.

Perhaps the Lord of Blissful Wish lives in Bliss Palace.

The crowd was noisy.

A long line of cultivator army arrived with a roar.

"This is Bliss Square!"

The cultivators said excitedly.

Then everyone’s eyes scanned around, looking for the legendary Lord of Blissful Wish.

Ethereal music drifted out from Bliss Palace.

The sky was filled with seven-colored glow, with falling cherry blossoms, and stunningly beautiful fairy maidens danced gracefully in the void.

The cultivators were shocked at the scene.

Boom!

The doors of Bliss Palace suddenly opened.

Blood-robed people slowly walked out, lining up in two rows on Bliss Square.

Sixteen alluringly beautiful women, in veils that barely covered them, with their delicate shoulders carried a red sedan, with each step they took, flowers blossomed, walking slowly.

"Could this be the Lord of Blissful Wish?"

Thoughts swirled in the cultivators’ minds.

In Bliss City, only the legendary, incredible Lord of Blissful Wish could have such grandeur.

The red sedan arrived at the center of the square.

"Salute to the Lord of Blissful Wish!"

All the blood-robed people knelt on the ground, shouting loudly.

At the front of the crowd, a gray-robed old man had an epiphany and unhesitatingly knelt down as well: "Salute to the Lord of Blissful Wish!"

The other cultivators also realized.

Everyone without exception knelt down.

"Salute to the Lord of Blissful Wish!"

"Salute to the Lord of Blissful Wish!"

The calls spread throughout Bliss City like a tsunami.

In Bliss City, all the cultivators immediately stopped what they were doing, got up, clasped their hands together, and solemnly bowed towards Bliss Square.

Together with the crowd, Nangong Liuyun also knelt down.

She had desires.

So facing the Lord of Blissful Wish, naturally gave rise to a sense of worship.

Luo Li stood solitary on the square, glancing at the kneeling crowd around, she pouted.

Meanwhile.

Ye Yun and Mu Qing reached the edge of Bliss Square.

Seeing little Luo Li standing alone there, seemingly at a loss, Ye Yun couldn’t help but grin.

As the current Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect, his knees were more precious than gold, how could he possibly kneel to a mere Lord of Blissful Wish?

Just then, a blood-robed person looked at Luo Li and asked sternly.

"Why do you not kneel upon seeing the Lord of Blissful Wish?"

"Why should I kneel?"

Luo Li chuckled, clasping her fists, greeted with a smile in the manner of a junior, "Greetings, Lord of Blissful Wish!"

The blood-robed person was too upset to speak.

Seeing Luo Li not kneeling, Nangong Liuyun was shocked and quickly tugged at her robe: "Sister, this is the Lord of Blissful Wish, if you want to make a wish, hurry and kneel!"

Luo Li shook her head.

What a joke, she has only ever kneeled to her ancestors.

This fake Lord of Blissful Wish, she will never kneel.

Inside the red sedan.

The Lord of Blissful Wish looked at Luo Li and smiled subtly.

"You indeed are a bit different from others, coming to my Bliss City, don’t you wish for your heart’s desires to be fulfilled?"

The Lord of Blissful Wish asked softly.

"Esteemed elder, I have no desires, my heart holds no wish, so naturally, there’s no need to kneel. I believe, with my current etiquette, it’s enough for a greeting!"

Luo Li clasped her fists and smiled.

The Lord of Blissful Wish: "..."

Even as one who has weathered many storms, the Lord of Blissful Wish was left speechless by Luo Li’s retort.

Seeing Luo Li’s performance, all the cultivators around became somewhat angry.

"Little girl, what nonsense, kneel down quickly!"

"This is Bliss City, don’t be presumptuous!"

"Little girl, kneel!"

The crowd accused her angrily, their faces filled with rage.

"You seniors, each of you won’t live for much longer, now entering the Spirit Abyss Ghost River, reaching Bliss City, also just wish to seek immortality..."

Luo Li was calm, looking around at the cultivators of both human and demon clans, smiling warmly, "I am still young and have plenty of lifespan, there’s no need to make a wish!"

The burly old man reprimanded, "Young girl, what do you know, immortality is the dream many people pursue for their entire lives?"

Luo Li shook her head and said, "I haven’t thought that far ahead, I think understanding the present is good enough!"

Seeing this little girl so rude, the surrounding cultivators glared angrily.

If the Lord of Blissful Wish weren’t beside them, causing them hesitation, they would have taken action against this little girl long ago.

"Little girl, don’t you want immortality?"

Inside the red sedan, the Lord of Blissful Wish looked at Luo Li with strange eyes.

"Hehe, in this world, who can truly be immortal? It’s all wishful thinking."

Luo Li shook her head and smiled.

In this moment, she remembered the Immortal Divine Silkworm on the carriage.

As one of the Five Great Heavenly Demon Clans of the previous era, the Immortal Divine Silkworm,

endowed with unique talents and having survived many hardships, managed to live to this era.

In Luo Li’s view, this might count as immortality.

As for the people of Bliss City—such as Gu Changsheng and others, they are so ordinary, how could they be worthy of immortality?
