Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 1638

"Breaking news! Shangguan Xiaoxiao, the successor of the Heavenly Emperor, has joined Tian Shi Peak and become a disciple of Peak Master Gu Shouzhuo!"

"What? Really? There are no scriptures left in Tian Shi Peak. There's no point in entering such a place without scriptures."

"That's right, any one of the three strongest main peaks is much better than Tian Shi Peak."

The news spread rapidly. Shangguan Xiaoxiao was already widely followed in the Golden Cloud Mountain Secret Realm, so she immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Meanwhile, on Ancestral Spirit Peak.

"Master, Shangguan Xiaoxiao actually chose to join Tianshi Peak!"

Zhu Heng's face was extremely ugly. He said, "How dare she refuse your invitation, Master!"

His words were filled with anger.

"Heh, she just doesn't want to get involved in the struggle for the Holy Lord..."

But Luo Changsheng sneered. Who was he? Could he not see through Shangguan Xiaoxiao's intentions?

"Should we teach her a lesson... to make her understand who the true master is in this Golden Cloud Mountain Secret Realm?"

Zhu Hengdao.

"That's all."

Luo Changsheng shook his head and said, "This woman is, after all, the successor of the Heavenly Emperor. If I deliberately target her if she refuses to join, it will backfire. It would be unwise if someone were to seize on this as leverage."

Upon seeing this, Zhu Heng had a sudden thought and said, "By the way, I have already found out that the person Shangguan Xiaoxiao recommended to join Tianshi Peak that day was an old friend of hers named Li Shi."

He gave a general overview of Li Lan's situation.

"Introduce your own people to Tian Shi Peak first, and then join them yourself?"

Luo Changsheng paused for a moment in thought, then said, "Could there be some changes at the Tian Shi Summit? Keep a close eye on it..."

"The disciple understands."

Zhu Heng nodded immediately and left.

……

"This Shangguan Xiaoxiao is truly asking for trouble. What right does she have to stand by and watch? To try and remain neutral?"

Inside Taiye Peak, several elders were also somewhat angry.

In their view, Shangguan Xiaoxiao was essentially sitting on the fence.

"The successor of the Heavenly Emperor... Heh, does he really think he's someone important?"

Director Chao Feng of Taiye Peak also sneered and said, "Forget it, the most urgent thing is to keep an eye on Ancestral Spirit Peak and Tian Shi Peak."

A disciple standing nearby said, "I think Shangguan Xiaoxiao should be punished."

"Just do what you think is best, and don't give anyone any leverage over you."

Ren Chaofeng simply said something indifferently.

Now that the struggle for the Holy Lord is imminent, if Shangguan Xiaoxiao can remain aloof, others will naturally follow suit and stand by and watch.

Given this situation, there is only one choice: those who submit to me prosper, and those who oppose me perish. No one can remain neutral.

Everyone has to choose a side!

……

“Miss Shangguan, you must have a master to guide you.”

On Sage Peak, upon learning of Shangguan Xiaoxiao's choice, Qi Wangtian nodded and smiled, saying, "Although she is intelligent and virtuous, she is not skilled in political maneuvering. Yet she is so shrewd now. I wonder if Gu Shouzhuo helped her..."

"However, Peak Master Gu Shouzhuo has been detached from worldly affairs for many years, so he probably wouldn't possess such keen insight..."

He pondered for a moment, and a figure flashed through his mind.

"Unparalleled talent, seasoned political skills... This child is destined for greatness!"

Upon realizing this, he immediately summoned someone and said, "Keep an eye on Tian Shi Peak."

"The people from Zuling Peak and Taiye Peak might make some underhanded moves. Let's not let them go too far!"

he said.

One of the disciples nodded and immediately left.

……

At a time when the outside world is in turmoil.

On Tian Shi Peak, Li Lan and Shangguan Xiaoxiao were having a barbecue.

They hunted a great many prey, including cranes, rabbits, and divine fish.

Any one of these creatures, if placed in the Eternal True Realm or the Primordial World, would be an unparalleled beast, and would certainly be fought over and nurtured by various major forces.

Once it grows up, it can protect a region and become an ancient behemoth that guards its heritage.

But now, they are stripped clean, grilled over a fire, and sprinkled with cumin and other spices when the meat turns golden brown, making them incredibly fragrant.

"Delicious, this is delicious!"
