In the Core World, Song Shuhang had specifically set aside a scenic area near a lake for the members of the “Nine Provinces Number One Group” to celebrate the New Year. This area, originally designated for developing “lake-view villas” in the Core World, was prime real estate.
The stage, the banquet venue for Fairy Snow White’s New Year feast, had already been set up.
The Iron Avatar and the Self-Corpse Overlord were responsible for accompanying the seniors of the “Nine Provinces Number One Group,” while the “Core Assistant” ensured that every guest in the Core World felt at home, with meticulous care provided to everyone.
For this event, aside from a few restricted areas, Song Shuhang opened up the rest of the Core World to the seniors.
The restricted areas weren’t locked down out of concern that the seniors would leak the secrets of the Core World; it was simply a matter of convenience. For example, the area around the central “Living Spring” wasn’t open because the main body of Pavilion Master Chu was soaking in the spring, blowing bubbles—not exactly something that should be on public display. There was also a secret, sealed-off area containing a large number of corpses, which wasn’t suitable for the members of the “Nine Provinces Number One Group” to encounter. Then there were the more dangerous areas, like the “Death Forest,” filled with traps, which Song Shuhang had also sealed off.
At the moment, however, the members of the “Nine Provinces Number One Group” weren’t in the “New Year Celebration Area.” They were touring the nearby Ancient Heavenly Court ruins under the guidance of the Iron Avatar.
To accommodate the “special ceremony” that the Northern Emperor was organizing, Song Shuhang had temporarily gathered all the “Ancient Heavenly Court fragments” in one place.
Aside from the “Cafeteria 111 Heavenly Court fragment,” which had been designated as the venue for Fairy Snow White’s New Year feast, the rest of the Heavenly Court fragments had been assembled.
After the event, Song Shuhang could use the “Core Assistant’s” saved “Core World Planning Map” to move the “Ancient Heavenly Court fragments” back to their original planned locations, so it wasn’t a big deal.
Song Shuhang had collected quite a few “Ancient Heavenly Court fragments” over time. Among the Four Emperors of the Heavenly Court, Song Shuhang had two complete relics: the Northern Emperor’s Winter Palace and the Southern Emperor’s “Southern Autumn Temple,” which had developed a sentient artifact spirit.
Song Shuhang also had several fragments of the Eastern Emperor’s “Spring Pavilion” and even a plaza from the Western Emperor’s “Summer Palace.”
Additionally, there were the Merit Palace of the Merit Snake Beauty and the Gravity Hall that Su Clan’s Sixteen had entrusted to him.
And now, thanks to the cooperation of his Kind Corpse “Ba Shan” and the Taoist Heir, who had been transferring a large number of Heavenly Court fragments from the Confucian Sect, Song Shuhang’s Core World had become a sizable “Ancient Heavenly Court Ruins” site.
Anyone who practiced cultivation would be fascinated by the once-dominant power of the Ancient Heavenly Court. Even the seniors of the “Nine Provinces Number One Group” rarely had the opportunity to see so many Heavenly Court fragments in one place.
Outside the Core World, in Wenzhou City at Song Shuhang’s old home,
“Teacher, when is Senior White arriving? Fairy Snow is getting impatient,” Chu Chu called out.
Senior White had teamed up with Soft Feather to hunt down the “Year Beast” for the New Year feast, and now there were only about fifty minutes left until the New Year.
“I’ll contact him,” Song Shuhang said as he used the “Cultivator Chat” function to call Senior White.
On the other end, Senior White answered the call and said, “Shuhang, Soft Feather and I are taking a quick detour, but we’ll be back soon. Just tell Fairy Snow to wait ten minutes.”
“A detour? Did you find something interesting, Senior White?” Song Shuhang asked curiously.
Senior White never missed an opportunity to find treasures, and if he was taking a detour, it had to be either a valuable find or something particularly fun that had caught his attention.
“Since the New Year is almost here, even if I found something fun, I’d bring you all along. This time, it’s serious business,” Senior White replied with a smile. “I suddenly remembered the ‘Jade Pool Heavenly Court fragment’ we took from the ‘Limitless Demon Sect.’ I’m heading there now to bring it back.”
“Oh, right, the Jade Pool! I almost forgot about it too,” Song Shuhang said.
The Heavenly Court fragment of the Jade Pool, along with the Divine Lantern of Mount Lu Demon Sovereign, had been snatched from the Limitless Demon Sect.
Now, the Mount Lu Demon Sovereign was in Song Shuhang’s “Domination Realm,” overseeing the enslaved disciples of the Limitless Demon Sect—who were bound by a contract to work for Song Shuhang for free for ten years.
Originally, these disciples were to work in Song Shuhang’s Core World, but he had temporarily transferred them to the Domination Realm for the New Year feast preparations.
After all, it was all Song Shuhang’s territory. Once their ten-year contract ended, he could consider moving the entire Limitless Demon Sect into the Domination Realm as the sole resident sect. By then, they could work for Song Shuhang for compensation instead of for free.
In fact, the disciples of the Limitless Demon Sect in the Domination Realm were already so awed by Domination Song’s methods that they were left speechless.
Not only did he possess an incomparably vast personal world, but Domination Song also had an entire “multiverse!”
How… How did our young master, Sea King, manage to offend such a being?
The Sea King has led us astray!
But… maybe this is a blessing in disguise?
Domination Song’s “multiverse” world seemed to lack people. Perhaps this was an opportunity for the Limitless Demon Sect?
After finishing his conversation with Senior White, Song Shuhang turned to Chu Chu and said, “Chu Chu, go tell Fairy Snow that Senior White and the others will be back in at most ten minutes. The seniors in the group should be arriving soon… You go help Fairy Snow with the preparations. Xiao Cai, you help too.”
Xiao Cai wasn’t much help with cooking, but her knife skills could come in handy.
“Alright, Teacher,” Chu Chu nodded.
She was now pursuing the path of the Immortal Chef, so assisting Fairy Snow White was a form of cultivation for her.
“By the way, has Joseph shown up yet?” Song Shuhang asked, puzzled.
He had messaged Joseph a few days ago, intending to formally establish their master-disciple relationship during this New Year celebration.
Given Joseph’s personality, he should have already arrived by now.
But with the New Year fast approaching, Joseph was still nowhere to be seen.
“Maybe give him a call?” The Ghost Fairy, controlling Su Clan’s Sixteen’s body, hovered behind Song Shuhang, wrapping her arms around his neck.
“I’ll try,” Song Shuhang said as he pulled out his phone and selected Joseph’s name.
But as soon as the phone rang twice, the line went dead.
Song Shuhang was confused.
Joseph would never deliberately turn off his phone… Could it have been stolen?
With a slight shift of his mind, Song Shuhang channeled a bit of his primordial spirit, and in the next instant, his “Tribulation Immortal-level” divine sense enveloped the entirety of China.
His divine sense spread out silently, unnoticed by cultivators below his level.
In a mere moment, Song Shuhang pinpointed Joseph’s location.
Sure enough, Joseph was in trouble. At that moment, he was bound tightly and hanging from the ceiling of a cave, spinning slowly.
Opposite him, a crude puppet was crushing a cellphone.
“Your master’s call, but don’t think he can save you,” the crude puppet sneered. “No matter who your master is, they can’t save you.”
“Yeah! I can ask my master for help!” Joseph suddenly exclaimed.
The crude puppet was confused.
