Chapter 747: The Wife Has Arrived

While Xu Fan was thinking about his wife, he received the menu for the Dragon-Tiger Banquet.

“Wow, over ten thousand dishes! Not bad at all,” Xu Fan said, satisfied as he looked at the jade slip with the menu.

The items he was most pleased with were the Tianyang Wine and the Holy Bone Wine.

Combined, the two kinds of wine amounted to a million pounds—enough to drink for a long time.

“Grape, send a team of Great Ascension stage puppets to help with the cooking,” Xu Fan commanded.

“Understood, Master.”

The head chef and the two disciples from the gourmet division felt even more powerful with the assistance of the Great Ascension stage puppets.

Before long, complete dragon and tiger skins were presented to Xu Fan.

“The dragon skin is long; we’ll lay it out in front of the main gate. As for the tiger skin, let First Clone and Second Clone refine it into a treasure,” Xu Fan thought for a moment and said.

“Understood,” the disciple delivering the skins responded.

Just as Xu Fan pondered how to decorate the main gate for the Dragon-Tiger Banquet, he suddenly felt a calling deep within the Extreme Void Domain.

Xu Fan stood up, and a Void Teleportation Portal appeared.

In the central area of the Extreme Void Domain, a small spiritual boat, like a leaf in a raging storm, bobbed up and down.

Amidst the strange wind, it swayed back and forth, narrowly avoiding the wind’s attacks each time.

Inside the boat, Zhang Weiyun watched her master, who was controlling the boat, with a hint of exasperation.

“Master, why can’t we just ascend in peace? Why do you have to seek out such thrills?”

“We stayed in that secret realm for hundreds of years and gained nothing.”

“This shows just how dangerous that secret realm is,” Zhang Weiyun said, frowning.

“Foolish disciple, I’m doing this for you. Before your ascension, I need to leave you some items to protect yourself. Otherwise, once the human and demon realms battle begins, how can you keep yourself safe?” the Mysterious Azure Elder said while controlling the boat.

“I have my husband to protect me; I don’t need so many protective celestial tools.”

“Just focus on your ascension to the Immortal Realm. In a few thousand years, I’ll come to find you,” Zhang Weiyun said.

“Why the hurry? Once I ascend, you can finally be with your husband,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said, giving her ungrateful disciple a glare.

“That secret realm can block heavenly secrets; my husband will definitely worry since he can’t calculate my whereabouts.”

“Are you trying to feed me dog food?”

Just as the Mysterious Azure Elder was about to scold her disciple, her expression suddenly changed.

She sensed dozens of Bat Giant Beasts charging toward her.

Zhang Weiyun spotted the Bat Giant Beasts too but showed little panic in her expression.

“Master, how do we escape now?” Zhang Weiyun asked.

She and her master often found themselves in seemingly deadly situations, but they had always turned danger into safety, so she had grown accustomed to these minor episodes.

“I have a feeling someone will come to rescue us,” the Mysterious Azure Elder said, stroking her chin.

"I think a giant beast from the Extreme Void might have passed by and swallowed them whole," Zhang Weiyun guessed.

At that moment, Xu Fan had just tamed a giant beast he encountered on his journey, which seemed to be heading towards his wife. This was unacceptable; he had to suppress it immediately. He then teleported again, arriving inside the spiritual boat where his wife was.

"Hubby!!!" Zhang Weiyun exclaimed after a moment of disbelief.

The Mysterious Azure Elder also looked at Xu Fan with astonishment. She felt an invincible aura emanating from him, and an inner voice confirmed that this man was the most powerful being in this realm.

"Greetings, Dao friend Mysterious Azure," Xu Fan greeted with a smile.

"Grand Elder, it’s an honor," the Mysterious Azure Elder replied, smiling, as a realization dawned on her. The solution to her great catastrophe in the Immortal Realm lay with her disciple’s husband. Truly, fate works in mysterious ways.

"I haven’t yet congratulated you on reaching the invincible realm, Dao friend," the Mysterious Azure Elder said, her voice tinged with envy. Despite her many opportunities, she remained an ordinary Great Ascension Master.

"Haha, I just have a bit of talent," Xu Fan modestly replied, his attention shifting to the Bat Giant Beasts approaching the spiritual boat.

A colossal hand appeared, blocking the sky and effortlessly crushing the Bat Giant Beasts despite the strange wind.

"I’ve been here before; these Bat Giant Beasts are relentless and quite troublesome," Xu Fan remarked as he calmly retracted his hand.

"Hubby, you’re incredible!!" Zhang Weiyun cheered, unable to hide her excitement.

"Your powers are indeed impressive, Dao friend," the Mysterious Azure Elder acknowledged.

At this moment, she realized something: her disciple’s Spirit body of great fortune was purer than her own. This thought brought a touch of melancholy.

"It’s just a method to deal with them; it’s not worthy of such praise," Xu Fan humbly said.

"Is there anything else you need? If not, I’d like to invite you both to the Hidden Spirit Sect for some rest. You’ve just come out of the secret realm," Xu Fan offered with a smile.

"After all these years of turmoil, it’s time to rest," the Mysterious Azure Elder agreed, noticing Zhang Weiyun’s eager expression.

Xu Fan nodded and gently stomped his foot. The spiritual boat was anchored by an unseen force, and a giant teleportation formation appeared beneath it. When the master and disciple regained their senses, they were at the Ten Thousand-Mile Giant Lake.

The Mysterious Azure Elder was visibly shocked. She couldn’t fathom that such a powerful individual existed in the cultivation world, capable of effortlessly transporting them across countless miles. Even the legendary Upper Zun might not have been capable of such a feat.

"Dao friend, our sect will soon host the Dragon-Tiger Banquet, and I hope you can attend," Xu Fan politely invited.

The Mysterious Azure Elder nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, the spiritual boat had already passed through the Hidden Spirit Sect’s protective grand formation. Soon, all disciples within the sect heard the news: "The Grand Elder’s partner, Elder Weiyun, has returned!"

Elder Zhang Weiyun was undoubtedly the most beloved in the Hidden Spirit Sect. Nearly all of the over 100,000 disciples had received rewards from her, and some still used the treasures she had bestowed.

In the garden by the spiritual liquid lake, the couple strolled together.

"Hubby, when did you become so amazing?" Zhang Weiyun asked, clinging to Xu Fan’s arm and resting her head on his shoulder.

"I’ve always been this amazing; I just didn’t realize it before. Your husband is not only the top artifact crafting master in the cultivation world but also its strongest person," Xu Fan said with a smile.

With his wife back, Xu Fan’s spirits lifted, and the mental strain from his forced seclusion would likely heal by the next night. He was in high spirits.

"Hubby is so incredible!" Zhang Weiyun said, her eyes sparkling with joy.

As they walked through a sea of flowers, two Cloud Flower Deer suddenly appeared, followed by a larger one.
