Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 258: An Immortal Mountain

Zhou Mengxian lived like an immortal.

His home was on a small island in the East Sea. It had trees, flowers, birds, animals, lakes, anything at all.

Before he even got to the island, Li Mo saw a thirty meter tall gate.

And written on it was Southern Heavenly Gate.

This was not the real Southern Heavenly Gate of course, but with Zhou Mengxian always calling himself immortal left and right, he even named his island Heaven Island. 

Four stout men stood guard at the Southern Heavenly Gate, at peak fourth level. 

The four heavenly kings?

Yan Wenjing nodded, Yes, daddy.

Li Mo chuckled and was gone in a step.

The four heavenly kings didnt even sensed him.

The next second, Li Mo was before the Heaven Palace.

Welcome, fellow Daoist Li. Please forgive me for not coming out to greet you!

Zhou Mengxian walked out of the palace, looking just like the immortals of legend.

He was calm, even smiling at Li Mo. It was like an old friend paying a visit.

Zhou Mengxian knew fully well what went on in Empress Restaurant. The moment the jade talisman broke, all its memories returned to the original. 

Fellow Daoist Li, please come in.

Zhou Mengxian gestured.

Only now Yan Wenjing arrived, earning a smile from Zhou Mengxian.

Yan Wenjing lowered her head, dodging behind Li Mo.

Li Mo taunted, Your disciple said I am he long-lost, estranged father and insists on calling me daddy.

Zhou Mengxians face changed, Congratulations fellow Daoist Li in getting a goddaughter.

Li Mo chuckled.

A man didnt attack a polite host. And since Zhou Mengxian was so kind, Li Mo had no reason to strike, following him inside the Heaven Palace.

Li Mo saw that those so-called fairies around were but common women. But since their looks were above average, Zhou Mengxian trained them into their fairy role.

Of course, his fairies paled by comparison with Ah Cais chicks.

Welcome immortal master Li!

The women bowed, and the white smoke wafting through the air gave the striking impression one was in the immortal palace of legend. 

Fellow Daoist Li, what do you think of my home?

Li Mo eyed Zhou Mengxian.

Having dispensed with the pleasantries, the time had come to get to the heart of things. 

Zhou Mengxian, posing as immortal emperor has nothing to do with me, nor does your wish to refine the Chaos Body. But refrain for putting humanity in harms way.

Zhou Mengxians face changed, What does fellow Daoist Li refer to? Are you not aware of my battle with those alien leaders?

Smoke and mirrors. You call that merit?

I can wipe the slate clean, but this time only.

Behave and youll have a long life.

Zhou Mengxian smiled, Fellow Daoist Li, do you know who I am?

I lived for five hundred years. If we are to talk about seniority, then I can be taken as one from the ancient past.

I saw the changes in dynasties, even the rise and fall of emperors. But for as long as I can remember, Ive done nothing evil, only looking to refine the Chaos Body.

Li Mo snorted, Making luck talismans to steal the peoples luck isnt evil?

Zhou Mengxians face flinched, but only for a blink.

Ive only ever took a fraction of their luck, and because I didnt have a choice. Fellow Daoist Li, youre not an average man and should know the challenge of creating the Chaos Body. Even if I have a hundred constitutions ready, I still need luck. I have no choice but to try to make a miracle.

I lived for five hundred years already and have done nothing evil. In fact, Ive defended traditional values more times than I can remember. Just check.

I said, the matters from before I will not consider. Only those in the future. Li Mo reminded.

Ive done no evil and will not do any as well.

Youd better.

If I find the opposite, youre on your own.

Li Mo was about to leave when Yan Wenjing cried, Daddy!

What are you doing?

I-Im coming with you.

No need. Youre home now and its best you go with your master.

N-no, I want to go with you.

Yan Wenjing rushed to grab his arm then let go.

Zhou Mengxian watched it all calmly. 

Fellow Daoist Li, why dont you stay for a few days? Let us compare our Dao to further advance our cultivation. 

No need, I already said my piece.

Li Mo glanced at Yan Wenjing. This resizing missys eyes were begging him with all her power. 

Li Mo rubbed her head, oblivious hed just scoured her memories.

Prison, strung up, flesh stripped from her bones

Li Mo saw in her memories the fate of all that betrayed Zhou Mengxian.

She was in fear of Zhou Mengxians revenge.

Yan Wenjings memory confirmed her words from before. She and Zhou Mengxian had an empty master disciple relationship, a quid pro quo one at best.

Fellow Daoist Li, are my disciples corpses on yourself? Could you return them? As master and disciples, sigh~

Li Mo flicked his hand and eight corpses came from his Star Ring. 

Thank you, fellow Daoist Li, for your help! Zhou Mengxian appreciated.

Li Mo left with Yan Wenjing.

Out of sight, Zhou Mengxians gratitude vanished, growing heavy as the qi surged around.

Of Zhou Mengxians ten legacy disciples, head senior sister Yan Wenjing had the Rejuvenating Physique. She could change her age at will, and what made her even valuable was that she could keep her innocence. This was one of the reasons Rejuvenating Physique was also called the Inborn Physique.

Zhou Mengxians other nine disciples had special constitutions as well, and rare to boot.

Humph, so what if theyre dead. Oh, Li Mo, I may not know who you are, but once I refine the Chaos Body, no one in the universe can stand in my way!

You will come to regret letting me live! Zhou Mengxians eyes glinted.

While Zhou Mengxian vented, Li Mos head popped in the air, Zhou Mengxian, I didnt kill you because youre but an ant to me. Try to have some modesty and try not to be so insidious. If youre smart enough, you will remember to never mess with me in the future.

Zhou Mengxian couldnt dodge the palm attack and was bleeding from his mouth and nose an held his chest.

Bear it in mind. Li Mo vanished.

Zhou Mengxian shuddered for a long time.
