Otherwise, He Song couldn’t have possibly made those comments.

Observing He Song’s carefree journey of sightseeing, it seems he has never traveled far before, and had likely always been diligently Cultivating within his Sect.

That is to say, within his Sect, He Song must have at least been one of the elite members.

Such beings inevitably possess considerable power and surely have an extraordinary background.

It’s fine when there’s nothing going on.

But once something happens, it’s likely that in the blink of an eye, he could request the aid of several Golden Elixir Masters.

Within the Nascent Soul Upper Sect, entities like the Master’s Door are extremely united.

If a real problem arises, there will certainly be those who seek vengeance on his behalf.

At this realization, True Monarch Fei Hu felt a chill in his heart, and some previously nonexistent thoughts were quietly discarded from his mind.

Thus, after obtaining the answer, the way True Monarch Fei Hu looked at He Song immediately became much warmer.

He warmly welcomed He Song and, under the escort of a dozen Zhao Family Foundation Establishment members, the group quickly transformed into streaks of tunneling light, descending into the Li Family’s residence below.

Inside the Li Family residence.

Within a vast palace.

He Song, True Monarch Fei Hu, and the Li Family’s dozen Foundation Establishment members promptly took their seats.

True Monarch Fei Hu sat in the place of honor; this was his home ground, the Zhao Family Residence, so it was only natural for him to take the central seat without any surprise.

He Song sat at the foremost seat to the left of True Monarch Fei Hu, the most esteemed position in a banquet aside from the host himself.

As for the dozen Foundation Establishment True Persons from the Zhao family, they placed themselves quite a distance from He Song and True Monarch Fei Hu, sitting at the edge of the banquet.

Nobody raised any objections to this.

For these dozen Zhao Family Foundation Establishment cultivators, simply being able to dine in the same hall as a Golden Elixir Master was already a great honor.

If it weren’t for this being the Zhao Family Residence and True Monarch Fei Hu’s instructions, these dozen Zhao family Foundation Establishment members might not have even qualified to enter the palace.

The gap in status between someone at the Golden Core Realm and Foundation Establishment is actually quite large.

Although it’s not as exaggerated as the gap between Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, it is still significant.

Inside the palace.

As everyone took their seats, beautiful handmaidens arrived gracefully, bringing delectable delicacies to those seated within the hall.

During the casual conversation, True Monarch Fei Hu, who had already made some guesses about He Song’s identity, had no more need for further probing.

Everything seemed as if he intended to befriend He Song, coming across as very smooth and natural.

With neither party having any intention of causing trouble, the atmosphere of the banquet was naturally quite harmonious.

He Song and True Monarch Fei Hu hit it off well, and some small sect secrets of the Nascent Soul Upper Sects occasionally dropped in conversation impressed True Monarch Fei Hu immensely.

However, most of these secrets were what He Song had heard from Master Luo Jing, or from Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

There were also many such secrets in the memory of Master Yin Yue.

Hence, what He Song said was mostly true, and he didn’t need to worry about True Monarch Fei Hu later sharing these secrets with others and being exposed.

Should True Monarch Fei Hu actually do so,

and verify the truth of He Song’s words,

He Song’s identity would naturally be confirmed.

Perhaps by then, during his stay in Zichuan Prefecture Government, he would continuously receive numerous invitations.

A cultivator whose Cultivation has reached the Golden Core Realm, with a distinguished status, is very popular no matter where they go.

This was something He Song had anticipated long ago.

However, the banquet was still underway, and He Song did not think too much of it, casually chatting with True Monarch Fei Hu before him.

But even during idle talk, the two quickly became much more familiar with each other.

Their conversation no longer had the initial distance.

So it went, until a particular moment.

True Monarch Fei Hu suddenly spoke up.

“May I inquire if Fellow Daoist has come here with the intention to settle permanently, or simply to temporarily stop over?”

After familiarizing with one another, it was naturally time for True Monarch Fei Hu to express the purpose behind his invitation for He Song to attend the banquet.

The main reason True Monarch Fei Hu invited He Song to this banquet was, in fact, to inquire about this matter.

As for the previous probing and the subsequent rapport-building, most of them were just preparatory work for this question.

The earlier inquiry about whether He Song was from afar laid the groundwork for this moment’s questioning.

Now that True Monarch Fei Hu knew He Song’s origin was not from one of the nearby Immortal States, his inquiry now naturally followed.

Next, no matter how He Song responded, his goal had been achieved.

For his part, He Song was well aware of this.

A strange Golden Elixir Master suddenly arriving and staying here would naturally attract the attention of the other Golden Elixir Masters within the state mansion.

It’s only human for True Monarch Fei Hu to have such doubts.

However, He Song had only arrived by chance, and his purpose was simply to wait for the goods he had purchased.

Within Zichuan Prefecture Government, at most, He Song would only stay for several months.

For such a short period, even if He Song wanted to do something here, it would likely be very difficult.

In such circumstances, He Song naturally had no intention of staying here long-term, nor any intention of competing with other Golden Core Families in Zichuan for resources.

Faced with True Monarch Fei Hu’s inquiry now, He Song certainly could not spout nonsense.

Therefore, upon hearing True Monarch Fei Hu’s question, He Song quickly feigned an enlightened look and then spoke up.

“So Fellow Daoist’s invitation was for this reason. This matter is indeed my oversight.”

“I have traveled from afar to here, simply on a whim, wishing to purchase some items within this Zichuan Prefecture Government.”

“Regrettably, although the item is not of high value, it is quite rare. Even the Treasure Pavilion currently has no supply.”

“Left with no choice, I could only wait here for some time until the Treasure Pavilion delivers the item I need before I depart.”

“My stay is by no means intentional, and I will not linger here long. Fellow Daoist has worried unnecessarily.”

He Song did not conceal the purpose of his visit.

Upon entering the prefecture government, he went straight to the Jubaoge, a fact that was impossible to hide.

The exchange between him and the Pavilion Master of Jubaoge, although secretive, could potentially be revealed.

Instead of beating around the bush, it was better to be straightforward and reveal his purpose directly to the True Monarch Fei Hu present.

In doing so, as long as He Song made it seem unintentional that the item he needed was not of high value but quite rare, True Monarch Fei Hu would likely believe him somewhat.

If in the future the price of the item he wanted got leaked,

With these prior words from him, it might even cause the other Golden Elixir Masters to be more wary of He Song.

After all, many of the items He Song sought were precious and of considerable value.

Yet these were downplayed as not high in value by He Song, which would likely solidify his persona as someone from a major power.

By that time, even if the Golden Elixir Masters within Zichuan Prefecture Government had any designs on He Song, they would probably have to weigh their options more carefully.

As for whether the True Monarch Fei Hu currently before He Song would entirely believe his words, He Song was not inclined to make him believe completely.

Believing somewhat, and not harboring any ill thoughts against him because of this matter, was enough.

At the very least, for the several months he would be spending here, it would prevent True Monarch Fei Hu from having any ill thoughts about the item He Song needed.

After several months, once He Song had already left, there would, of course, be no more need to worry about whether True Monarch Fei Hu believed him or not.

Moreover, He Song directly clarified that he was only temporarily staying in this place.

He would not enter into any conflicts of interest with the Golden Elixir Masters in Zichuan Prefecture Government.

In such a situation, True Monarch Fei Hu and the other Golden Elixir Masters would naturally not be too wary of He Song.

In the world of cultivation, although it is fraught with peril,

That danger, for the most part, is often caused by competition over resources.

For a passerby like He Song, especially one whose cultivation had reached the Golden Core Realm, the likelihood of suddenly encountering inexplicable danger was very low.
