437: Liu Shu took advantage of him and built a sect.

He felt the terrifying battle aura filling the nearby space.

Liu Shu's eyes were misty, and she continuously scanned the surroundings, searching for Jiang Chen's figure.

Jiang Chen had Ascended just one step ahead of her. Now that there was a battle aura near the Ascension Platform, perhaps Jiang Chen had already perished or been captured.

“Sect Master! Where exactly are you? Xiao Shu is so worried about you!”

After sweeping a large area around, finding no trace of Jiang Chen, Liu Shu slumped onto the ground, muttering tearfully.

Seeing that Liu Shu had searched all the surrounding mountains but had neglected to look up into the sky.

Jiang Chen was speechless. He said to the distressed Liu Shu, “Xiao Shu, why are you crying there? This Sect Master is right here!”

How could this little girl be so foolish? If he wasn't on the ground, why didn't she look up?

Crying so heartbrokenly now, anyone who didn't know better would think he was already gone.

“Ah? It's Sect Master!” Hearing Jiang Chen's voice coming from the sky, Liu Shu snapped out of her distress and immediately looked up.

When she saw Jiang Chen floating in the air, completely unharmed, she immediately burst into tears of joy, quickly flew over to Jiang Chen, and crashed into his embrace, sobbing, “Waaah! Sect Master, I'm glad you're okay. I thought you had been captured.”

Liu Shu nestled in Jiang Chen's arms, revealing a triumphant smile.

She had been craving Jiang Chen for a long time, and today she finally found an Opportunity to burrow into his arms.

“Hiss, how did this True Immortal Realm chick manage to jump into the arms of an Immortal Emperor big shot? This Immortal Emperor big shot is too undiscerning.”

“Holy crap! Why would an Immortal Emperor big shot like a True Immortal chick? If the Immortal Emperor needed it, there are plenty of female Immortal Emperors who would throw themselves into his arms.”

“Exactly! A True Immortal hugging an Immortal Emperor is truly a wonder of the ages. Could it be that this Immortal Emperor big shot Cultivates some special Cultivation Technique that has no requirements for female Cultivator's cultivation level? As long as she's a woman, he accepts anyone?”

Seeing Liu Shu, a newly Ascended True Immortal, suddenly latch onto Jiang Chen, the Cultivators who had just stood up in Xuantian Reception City were all dumbfounded.

It must be known that high-level Cultivators rarely seek low-level female Cultivators as Dao Companions. Someone of Jiang Chen's level would certainly not be interested in a female Cultivator with such low cultivation.

Now that Liu Shu, a True Immortal, was hugging Jiang Chen, the Immortal Emperor, and Jiang Chen hadn't resisted, it meant that Jiang Chen didn't care about a female Cultivator's cultivation level at all—as long as she was pretty.

Countless Cultivators in Xuantian Reception City were stunned for a moment, but quickly regained their senses.

They then quickly took out communication treasures to contact the beautiful women among their relatives, urging them to quickly teleport to Xuantian Reception City and find an opportune moment to wander in front of Jiang Chen.

As long as Jiang Chen took a liking to their relative, their own rise to prominence would be just around the corner.

“Hey! Cousin, it's your cousin here. I have a heaven-sent Opportunity! Hurry and teleport to Xuantian Reception City. As long as you seize this chance, you'll be able to level up even while lying down.”

“Hello! Sister-in-law, I have a massive stroke of luck here. Come quickly to Xuantian Reception City. If this works out, I guarantee you'll soar into the sky.”

“Hello! Aunt, quickly come to Xuantian Reception City! There's an Immortal Emperor big shot here who actually took a liking to a True Immortal chick. With your looks, you'll definitely catch the Immortal Emperor big shot's eye! Hurry up, my good life depends entirely on you.”

As the Cultivators in Xuantian Reception City sent out their messages, countless stunningly beautiful female Cultivators across Hongmeng Immortal Realm who received the news were all ecstatic, preparing to rush to Xuantian Reception City at the fastest possible speed.

Although they knew the chance of being favored by an Immortal Emperor wasn't high, they didn't want to miss even a sliver of Opportunity.

After all, if they were favored by an Immortal Emperor, they could instantly soar to success, becoming a person above others—second only to one, and above billions.

The Heavenly Emperor kneeling on the ground watched this scene in the air, his eyes filled with suspicion and shock.

He had clearly heard Liu Shu call Jiang Chen "Sect Master."

But Liu Shu had Ascended from the Xuantian World. Her calling Jiang Chen "Sect Master" meant that Jiang Chen was also from the Xuantian World.

However, no one had Ascended from the Xuantian World for 100,000 years. How could such a terrifying Immortal Emperor suddenly appear?

Furthermore, the Demon Race had sent a large number of low-level Demon Race members to the Lower Realm. The three True Immortals he sent perished without even sending back a message. How, then, did Liu Shu Ascend safely?

All sorts of questions surfaced in the Heavenly Emperor's mind, but since he was a defeated foe, he dared not question Jiang Chen. Based on Jiang Chen's demeanor just now, he feared that if he said one extra word, he would die on the spot.

So, for the sake of his own life, it was best to keep his mouth shut.

“Enough, what kind of decorum is this, crying and sniffling? This Sect Master is wise and mighty, unrivaled across the Myriad Worlds. Who could possibly capture This Sect Master?”

Looking at the crying Liu Shu in his arms, Jiang Chen gave a helpless reprimand.

He, a dignified Cheat/Hacker, had just displayed overwhelming prestige, striking the Heavenly Emperor with one move until he spat out several kilograms of blood.

Now, being tearfully hugged by a woman truly damaged his prestige.

“Sect... Sect Master, please forgive me. Xiao Shu was impolite.” Hearing Jiang Chen's reprimand, Liu Shu quickly let go of Jiang Chen, lowering her head pitifully like a child who had done something wrong.

“It's fine. This Sect Master isn't blaming you, but merely reminding you to mind your image when outside.” Seeing the mist in Liu Shu's eyes, Jiang Chen couldn't help but offer comfort.

His reprimand to Liu Shu was only because he wanted her to recognize the occasion and not be overly familiar in public.

After all, as a dignified Sect Master, he still needed to maintain his authority when outside.

“Yes, Sect Master, Xiao Shu understands.” Seeing that Jiang Chen wasn't blaming her, Liu Shu's pitiful expression immediately vanished, and she bowed mischievously to accept the order.

“Mhm, stand aside for now. This Sect Master is going to establish the Immortal Realm Qingtian Sect here.”

Jiang Chen waved his hand at Liu Shu, then looked at the massive plain beneath his feet and ordered the System, “System, help me use the Sect Duplication Card to duplicate the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect onto this plain.”

[Ding! Sect Duplication Card used successfully. Duplicating Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect for the Host...]

As the System's voice fell silent, the Sect Duplication Card in Jiang Chen's inventory turned into a ball of light, and soon transformed into a miniature model of the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect.

This Qingtian Sect model included the Time Pagoda, the Trial Pagoda, and all the buildings of the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect, making it identical to the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect.

“Huh? It actually duplicated it into a model?”

Seeing the model of the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect appear in the System inventory, Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned.

He had thought the System would directly duplicate the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect onto the plain, but unexpectedly, it was just a Sect model that he needed to throw down.

“Hoo, well, if I have to throw it, I'll throw it.”

Jiang Chen exhaled, took the Sect model out of the System Space, and tossed it toward the plain below.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The moment Jiang Chen threw down the Sect model, the entire model instantly grew ten million times larger from its palm-sized miniature form. When it landed on the plain, which was hundreds of meters high, it directly transformed into a massive, grand Qingtian Sect.

Aside from being situated on the plain, this Qingtian Sect had no difference from the Mortal Realm Qingtian Sect in terms of its buildings and Cultivation treasures.
