Chapter 678: The Human Emperor Ascends to Immortality

The Great Zhou Imperial Palace, home to the high-ranking cultivators of the Nine Provinces.

Originally summoned by Jiang Li, these cultivators had gathered at the borders of the Great Zhou. It had been half an hour since Jiang Li slew three Golden Immortals and disappeared in pursuit of the Celestial Emperor Tianyuan.

During this half-hour, Ji Zhi felt that, as guests within the territories of the Great Zhou, they ought to experience its hospitality. He proposed that everyone rest in the Great Zhou Imperial Palace and wait for Jiang Li's return.

Everyone was indifferent to where they waited, but they agreed since it was rude to refuse Ji Zhi's generous offer.

Upon hearing this news, the officials of the Ministry of Rites were so shocked that they nearly dropped dead.
