Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 61 - 56 Rejected Again

61: Chapter 56 Rejected Again

61 -56 Rejected Again

East King, having faced rejection and attack, did not return to Zifu State but instead came to Taiyin Star.

He remembered correctly; the laurel tree on Taiyin Star should also have considerable strength.

What he needs to do now is to widely invite distinguished individuals to confront the Witch Clan together.

He understands that the Witch Clan is his biggest opponent in the Primordial.

Moreover, he also wanted to visit the descendants of Wang Shu, as he had promised Wang Shu in the past.

Most importantly, after breaking through to Daluo Golden Immortal, he found that he carried two streams of Daoist luck.

He wanted to merge them, but no matter what, he couldn’t do it.

Later, he realized that one of the streams might have been a gift from Wang Shu.

As for the reason why they couldn’t merge, he knew it too; it all had to do with the two descendants of Wang Shu on Taiyin Star.

Unfortunately, at that time, he was so intent on expanding his own power that he became too arrogant to value this Daoist luck.

So he didn’t think about coming to Taiyin Star.

East King arrived at Taiyin Star, feeling the gentle Moonlight here, which was much more comfortable than on the Sun Star.

He didn’t stop, going directly to where the laurel tree was originally located.

As he approached, he found an Array slowly rotating.

East King looked at the Array before him and couldn’t help but think of the time when Wang Shu fell, and both Di Jun and he were on Taiyin Star.

At that time, Di Jun wanted to invite him to set up the Array together, but he, eager to return and break through to Daluo Golden Immortal, refused.

Now, looking at this Array, he could not help but feel it was profoundly mysterious and also familiar.

It seemed to have some similarities with the Array on the Sun Star.

Just as East King was considering how to enter the Array, a woman dressed in palace attire walked out from within.

“Are you…

East King?

Yes, you are East King!”

A cold yet lively and beautiful voice sounded; it was Chang Xi.

East King’s image existed in the heritage memories of Wang Shu.

East King looked at the palace-dressed woman before him, also speculating about her identity.

Stepping out of the Array arranged by Di Jun with the realm and cultivation of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Could she be the descendant of the venerable Wang Shu?

“I am indeed East King, may I ask who you are?”

“My name is Chang Xi.”

Suddenly remembering something, Chang Xi then said, “Daoist East King, please follow me.”

With that, she turned and went back into the Array.

East King quickly followed.

Led by Chang Xi, soon, East King saw the laurel tree.

Under the laurel tree, another woman in palace attire was sitting cross-legged.

“Sister, Daoist East King has arrived.”

Chang Xi didn’t stop and shouted directly.

Xi He stood up, casting a doting glance at her sister, then focused her gaze on East King.

“Xi He, meet Daoist East King.”

“Chang Xi, meet Daoist East King.”

Chang Xi mimicked Xi He’s action and repeated the greeting.

“East King, meet the two Daoists.”

East King returned the courtesy.

Then, he immediately asked, “Do you two dao friends know me?”

As he spoke, East King’s gaze involuntarily turned towards the laurel tree, wondering in his heart: Could it be that the laurel tree told them?

Seeing this, Xi He couldn’t help but say, “It wasn’t Daoist Yue Gui who told us, but rather we learned about you and Daoist Di Jun from the inheritances we received.”

“After all, both of you were selected by the predecessor Wang Shu.”

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across East King’s face.

He was not aware of Di Jun’s situation, but he indeed failed to fulfill the entrusted task by predecessor Wang Shu.

Xi He noticed the fleeting embarrassment on East King’s face and understood the reason for his discomfort.

She didn’t dwell too much on this issue, but asked, “May I know what brings Daoist East King here?”

East King’s expression became serious, and he said, “I came to Taiyin Star mainly to fulfill the entrusted task by predecessor Wang Shu.”

“Secondly, it is to invite Daoist Yue Gui to the Primordial Continent.”

Xi He’s gentle smile paused upon hearing East King’s words, and then she said.

“Daoist East King, you need not worry about us sisters; we are doing well here.”

“As for Daoist Yue Gui, it prefers tranquility over movement, so it will not go to the Primordial Continent.”

Xi He had a rather unfavorable impression of East King, sensing that everything he did was driven by self-interest.

Most importantly, the schemes of East King seemed too superficial, making Xi He dismissive.

To fulfill the entrusted task by predecessor Wang Shu, why hasn’t he ever visited before the birth of them sisters.

As for inviting Daoist Yue Gui, it’s even more nonsensical.

Upon hearing Xi He’s refusal, East King did not give up, and even shifted his focus to Xi He and Chang Xi.

Both were Daluo Golden Immortals, born from Taiyin Star, with profound origins.

“May I ask if the two dao friends are interested in going to the Primordial Continent?”

Before Xi He and Chang Xi could respond, Di Jun’s voice appeared on Taiyin Star.

“Daoist East King, you are indeed desperately seeking talents!”

“Di Jun!”

Xi He noticed a hint of fear in East King’s tone.

Only to see Moonlight continuously condensing on Taiyin Star, the laurel tree was also assisting from the side, and Di Jun’s figure emerged.

Di Jun felt the temporary body formed by the Moonlight, then looked at East King.

East King, seeing the silvery figure of Di Jun under the laurel tree, understood this was not Di Jun’s real body, and his heart settled somewhat.

It turned out that Xi He noticed East King, and immediately informed Di Jun through the Array.

For East King, who had never set foot on Taiyin Star throughout the endless ages, his sudden arrival surely bore suspicious motives, Xi He thought.

Thus, she notified Di Jun, seeking his help to support the situation.

Di Jun condensed a moonlight body through the Taiyin Star’s Array, temporarily sending a sliver of Divine Sense here.

Di Jun was not afraid of East King taking action, with Xi He, Chang Xi, and the laurel tree present, plus his control over the Array on Taiyin Star, they were overwhelmingly superior.

“Daoist Di Jun.”

East King forced a smile.

There was no smile on Di Jun’s face; he looked seriously at East King and said, “Daoist East King, is Zifu State that short of cultivators?

To think you would scheme for Daoist Xi He and Daoist Chang Xi.”

“Daoist Di Jun misunderstands, my intention was for the two dao friends to come to Zifu State, so I could fulfill the earlier task entrusted by predecessor Wang Shu, and take care of them.”

East King hurriedly explained.

“Daoist East King has been thoughtful, but we sisters are quite well on Taiyin Star and do not wish to go to the Primordial Continent.”

From the tone of Di Jun and East King’s somewhat guilty expression, Xi He knew that going to the Primordial Continent was not a good choice.
