Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2035 - 1990: Divine Dragon Assembly
Previously on Peach Blossom Divine Medical God...
"Chen Yang, Taoist Liu, you’re both here." He Xiran was dressed in a white dress, like a white lotus blooming unstained by mud.
"Yeah, little Xiran, what brings you here? You need something from Chen Yang?" Taoist Liu walked up with a smile.
"Mm, I’m here for Chen Yang, and for you too, Taoist." He Xiran said with a smile.
"For me? What’s up?" Taoist Liu was a little curious.
"What’s going on, Xiran?" Chen Yang also stepped forward to ask.
"People from Lion Tiger Mountain have come. They brought good news, so Uncle asked us to get you two to the dojo to discuss it." He Xiran didn’t keep them in suspense and said it directly.
"People from Lion Tiger Mountain?" Taoist Liu exchanged a look with Chen Yang; they were both surprised.
What were people from Lion Tiger Mountain doing here at this time? Could it be because of the Lingxin Sect matter?
Chen Yang and Taoist Liu didn’t ask too much; they just returned to the dojo together with He Xiran.
After they got to the dojo, Chen Tianmin roughly explained the situation.
It turned out Lion Tiger Mountain had received an invitation these past two days, saying they were invited to attend an auction that was also a "exchange blows to make friends" event.
This was a grand gathering. When the time came, many experts from the cultivation world would come to participate, and there would be many activities.
So the Lion Tiger Sect Leader had specially sent someone here to deliver the news and see if Chen Yang and Taoist Liu were interested in going.
If they were, they could all go together.
"This grand gathering... could it be the Divine Dragon Assembly that only happens every few decades?" After hearing it, Taoist Liu thought for a moment and said.
"Divine Dragon Assembly? Taoist Liu, what’s that?" Standing off to the side, He Xiran looked completely puzzled.
It wasn’t just her; a lot of people present didn’t understand.
Taoist Liu smiled at Chen Tianmin, then explained, "This Divine Dragon Assembly is a grand event that only takes place once every fifty years!"
"Every Divine Dragon Assembly draws experts from the entire cultivation world to participate. The spectacle is something else."
"I actually went once in the past. Thinking about it now, it still feels pretty meaningful."
...
Taoist Liu carefully talked them through what this Divine Dragon Assembly was.
To put it plainly, this assembly is hosted by an organization called the Dragon God Sect.
It doesn’t just include an auction and contests between various factions. More importantly, every time they hold a comparison that’s like an exam.
The winners can obtain a unique kind of heaven-and-earth treasure owned by the Dragon God Sect. It’s very tempting.
After listening, Chen Yang, He Xiran, and the others all became interested.
Because Taoist Liu said that this kind of competition has an age limit; only the younger generation can participate.
If they manage to win, they can receive rewards from the Dragon God Sect.
"I haven’t attended this gathering myself, but I’ve heard of it. It is indeed as the Taoist says, basically no difference." Chen Tianmin nodded, agreeing with Taoist Liu’s account.
"So, Uncle, are we going?" He Xiran had long been sick of staying in Liuhe Village and really wanted to go.
Chen Tianmin did have the same idea.
After all, it only happens once every fifty years. If they missed this chance, they’d have to wait another fifty years.
But he also had misgivings. If they went, people from Blood Bat Hall would definitely be present too.
If they were recognized when the time came, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?
"Fellow Daoist Chen, if you’re thinking of going, this poor Daoist actually has a way to keep you from being discovered by Blood Bat Hall." Taoist Liu saw through Chen Tianmin’s worries and spoke up from the side.
"Oh? Taoist, what good idea do you have?"
Chen Tianmin asked immediately.
"Have little Xiran and the others disguise themselves as disciples of my lineage and go under my sect’s name. That way there shouldn’t be a problem. Also, as far as I know, during the Divine Dragon Assembly, as long as you’re on the Divine Dragon Assembly’s territory, private grudges and fights are not allowed."
"So even if you are discovered, I reckon Blood Bat Hall won’t dare do anything. The Dragon God Sect’s strength is nothing to scoff at; Blood Bat Hall can’t afford to offend them." Taoist Liu laid out his plan.
When Chen Tianmin heard that, his eyes immediately lit up.
This really was a good idea.
As long as people from Blood Bat Hall couldn’t make a move on them, they definitely could go to this grand gathering.
And as far as he knew, it wasn’t just the major forces from the cultivation world that went to the Divine Dragon Assembly; many Loose Cultivators would also attend.
If they could use this opportunity to expand the strength of the Vengeance Alliance, that would be perfect.
Right now what their Vengeance Alliance lacked most were talents and experts.
As long as they had experts and talents, resources and such would naturally fall into place.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, what do you think?" Seeing that Chen Tianmin wasn’t speaking, Taoist Liu smiled and followed up with a question.
"Taoist Liu, I think this method is excellent. If we can attend under your sect’s name, that would be ideal." Chen Tianmin nodded, very interested.
"Good, then it’s settled. We’ll head out together when the time comes." Taoist Liu laughed heartily, clearly pleased.
Once the two of them had agreed, they immediately had the disciples Lion Tiger Mountain sent bring a message back, saying they would attend.
"The Divine Dragon Assembly starts in three days. How about this, Fellow Daoist Chen, little friend Chen Yang—we’ll treat today as a day of rest, and set off together tomorrow, how does that sound?" After sending away Lion Tiger Mountain’s disciple, Taoist Liu turned to Chen Tianmin and Chen Yang and said this.
Chen Yang didn’t know much about the Divine Dragon Assembly; he was just very interested in what they’d said about it, so when it came to itinerary and the like, he just let Taoist Liu and Chen Tianmin arrange everything.
"Taoist Liu, is the Divine Dragon Assembly being held at Divine Dragon Mountain again this time?" Chen Tianmin didn’t agree right away; he first asked about the location.
"Yes, still at Divine Dragon Mountain." Taoist Liu nodded.
Seeing this, Chen Tianmin said, "Then let’s leave tomorrow. It’s better to arrive early and enjoy some peace and quiet, rather than stirring up trouble on the road."
"Alright!" Taoist Liu smiled and nodded again, then turned his gaze straight to He Xiran. "Xiran, don’t just stand there being happy. Hurry and help your uncle pick some good members so they can go along too."
"Got it, Taoist, I’m going right now."
Of all of them, the most excited about going to the Divine Dragon Assembly was He Xiran.
This girl had long been stifled in Liuhe Village, wishing every day she could go out for a walk. Now that she had such a chance, she was naturally thrilled.
After speaking, she immediately went off to make arrangements.
Everyone else was also assigned to make various preparations. In a flash, only Taoist Liu, Chen Tianmin, and Chen Yang were left in the room.
"Old geezer, you have something to say to me, don’t you?" Seeing Taoist Liu send everyone else off while leaving only him behind, Chen Yang knew this old guy definitely had some special arrangement in mind.
"Little friend Chen Yang, this poor Daoist does indeed have a special arrangement for you." Taoist Liu said with a smile.
"What arrangement?" Chen Yang couldn’t help being curious.
He kept feeling the old guy’s expression was off, like he was plotting something.
"We’re leaving tomorrow, but you’re setting out tonight." Taoist Liu said with a laugh.
"Why?" Chen Yang froze for a moment, somewhat confused. Weren’t they supposed to all go together disguised as disciples of the Chiyun lineage? Why was he being told to set out alone?
Very strange.
