Chapter 1415 The t.i.tle of Han Yang Immortal
Poof!
Many people in the Chu Family were almost choked to death by their own saliva.
“Chu Qingyi’s master is actually Grand Master’s Big Brother?
“How is this possible?
“He is still so young. How could this be?”
The Sect Leader of the Red Snow Mountain and the others were also dumbfounded.
The most powerful figures present were none other than Patriarch Chu, Old Taoist Honghu, and the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak.
Of the three, the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak was slightly inferior, while the other two were roughly on par with each other.
They thought that everyone would be having a good time by merely entering the hall to have a good chat.
Who would’ve thought that Chu Qingyi’s master was found to be Grand Master Chu’s Big Brother?
“Good heavens!”
Young Master Dong was dumbfounded.
“Where did Chu Qingyi get her master? He’s so awesome!”
“Hurry up, get the banquet ready.”
Ancestor Chu waved his hand and said in a happy and hurried tone, “Take out all the finest treasured liquors in the house.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Patriarch Chu, who was sitting limply on the ground, quickly patted his b.u.t.t and stood up. He seemed to be making the arrangements.
“There’s no need to drink. The Chu Family doesn’t welcome me very much.” Zhang Han’s expression became calm.
No one had paid attention to Zhang Han’s calm expression before. Some people even sneered in their hearts. “Are you putting on airs?”
However, now, everyone was looking at Zhang Han’s calm expression.
They instantly felt that it was unfathomable.
Humans were truly strange.
Hearing Zhang Han’s words, Grand Master Chu was stunned. He glanced at the expressions of the Chu Family members and seemed to have understood something. His facial muscles trembled, and everyone could hear his anger and even a trace of shock.
He looked at Patriarch Chu coldly and said, “When I’m not around, did anyone of you neglect my Big Brother Hanyang?”
“s.h.i.+t!
“I’m doomed!”
Patriarch Chu broke out in a cold sweat. In just a few seconds, his back was soaked with sweat, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
“Little Zheng, calm down. Those who are ignorant are innocent.” Zhang Han waved his hand.
His expression was still calm.
However, Grand Master Chu’s face was slightly pale, and his beard was trembling with anger.
“Who has neglected my Big Brother Hanyang? Step forward!”
The most powerful person on the scene was Grand Master Chu. When he was angry, his aura rippled out.
“He’s in the Mastery Realm!”
Zhang Han slightly narrowed his eyes.
He also felt a little strange and uncertain.
“Although I took care of Chu Zheng a bit back then, it will be troublesome if he turns against me.”
After thinking for a while, Zhang Han added, “Forget it. Patriarch Chu didn’t make a mistake. He only said to me, ‘who do you think you are’. It’s just a small matter. It’s just verbal disrespect.”
“What?!”
Patriarch Chu’s eyes widened as he raised his right hand.
Smack!
With a fierce slap, Patriarch Chu was sent flying.
Clatter!
The Chu Family members were all shocked.
Previously, they thought that Grand Master was just angry on the surface, or he just wanted to show it to Brother Hanyang. But now, after this slap, Patriarch Chu’s skin and flesh were torn open and he was almost dead. Grand Master didn’t seem to be joking at all. In their opinion, he even wanted to kill someone.
He was already showing mercy since it was the Patriarch. If it were someone else, he would have been crippled.
Not only the Chu Family members but also the Sect Leader of the Red Snow Mountain and the others were frightened.
The Taoist Lord of Azurepeak grinned, a bit dazed.
Old Taoist Honghu looked left and right but did not dare speak.
“Alas!”
Zhang Han sighed softly and said, “Patriarch Chu really didn’t do much. He just wants to lock me up at Hurricane Cliff, right?”
“You!”
Grand Master Chu flew into a rage. “Guards, lock this b.a.s.t.a.r.d up at Hurricane Cliff!”
“Grand Master.”
A senior from the Chu Family said in a tearful voice, “Grand Master, you can’t do that. The Patriarch is very diligent and he also…”
“Very well. Since you are so loyal, then go with him and you’ll be locked up as well.” Grand Master Chu’s words were very effective. After the surrounding people heard those words, they immediately grabbed Patriarch Chu and the person who just spoke and locked them up.
Zhang Han touched his chin and said, “It is indeed not easy for Patriarch Chu.”
Patriarch Chu was desperate.
“Boo-hoo. I beg you to stop talking.”
“Earlier, he said that if I wanted to leave, who should I defeat first? That young genius?” While speaking, Zhang Han glanced at Chu Qingyi.
“It’s Chu Kuangfeng.” Chu Qingyi’s mouth trembled slightly.
She was confused and wanted to laugh.
“Master is simply too evil.”
“Chu Kuangfeng? Come out now. Get lost! Lock them up together!”
Grand Master Chu glared around. His irascible temper was finally revealed. Those who had a good relations.h.i.+p with Patriarch Chu in the crowd were all pointed at by him. He said, “You, you, and you, all of you, go to Hurricane Cliff and repent!”
This time, more than half of the people were given the order to go to Hurricane Cliff.
“What?”
“Grand Master!”
Some people were dumbfounded and wanted to plead for mercy, but they were quickly pulled by the people around them.
“How dare you speak at this time?”
Under other people’s gazes, Patriarch Chu and a large number of people were escorted to Hurricane Cliff.
“Brother Chu, today is a day of great joy. Why don’t we have a good chat with this Big Brother and temporarily set this matter aside? You’ll punish them tomorrow.” The Taoist Lord of Azurepeak couldn’t help but try to persuade him.
“Set this matter aside? A day of great joy? No, that won’t do. We won’t hold the wedding today. I’m going to only entertain Brother Hanyang today. I won’t do anything else.” Grand Master Chu’s bad temper rose.
He didn’t show due respect for feelings at all.
Taoist Lord of Azurepeak let out a bitter laugh and then shook his head helplessly.
At the same time, the crowd was even more curious about the ident.i.ty of the person in the wheelchair.
“Is he Grand Master Chu’s relative?”
Young Master Dong, the Red Snow Mountain Leader, and the other high-position members of the Chu Family did not dare to speak at this time.
Grand Master Chu didn’t even let this matter go for the sake of the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak, so even if any other people said anything, it wouldn’t work.
“Big Brother Hanyang, please take a seat.”
Grand Master Chu didn’t want to waste time on others. He flashed into the main hall and waved his hand, saying, “You just stay by the side. I’ll wheel Big Brother Hanyang.”
“Grand Master, Master is not used to being wheeled around by others,” Chu Qingyi explained in a low voice.
“Is that so?” Grand Master Chu looked back and forth between Zhang Han and Chu Qingyi and suddenly came to a realization. “Sorry, it’s my fault for being nosy. You’ll wheel the wheelchair and let’s go sit over there.”
Judging by his expression, he must have thought that Chu Qingyi was Zhang Han’s woman.
Zhang Han sighed and was wheeled to the main seat by Chu Qingyi. Grand Master Chu sat down beside him, looked ahead, and ordered, “The others can leave now. Go and prepare for the banquet.”
“What?
“Who are ‘the others’?”
Everyone looked at each other. The Chu Family members left immediately, and no one dared to stay there. Even their patriarch was taken away, so they were definitely “the others”.
Aside from the Sect Leader, Young Master Dong, and the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak, the rest of the people from the Red Snow Mountain all retreated.
When the crowd left, Old Taoist Honghu felt that it was the right time.
Sitting aside, he asked with a smile, “Well, we haven’t known who this Big Brother is.”
Judging from his appearance alone, Old Taoist Honghu was even older than Zhang Mu.
It was still a little weird for him to call Zhang Han that.
“Ha, let me make a grand introduction. This is my, um… first cultivation teacher, Han Yang Immortal.”
As soon as those words were said-
Poof!
Old Taoist Honghu’s eyes were wide open and his body was numb. He immediately sat upright, but he seemed to feel that it was not respectful enough. He quickly stood up and stood still with a confused look on his face.
“Poof! Ahem, ahem…”
Taoist Lord of Azurepeak and the Red Snow Mountain Master both spat out a mouthful of water. They coughed twice, not daring to make a sound. They were so stifled that their faces were completely red.
“Han, Han Yang Immortal?”
Old Taoist Honghu stammered, “Brother Hanyang, nice to meet you.”
He had a good relations.h.i.+p with Grand Master Chu. All along, he had heard Grand Master Chu say many times that he once had a particularly amazing teacher. When he talked about his first cultivation teacher, Grand Master Chu’s eyes were always filled with reverence and yearning.
He had cultivated for 1,200 years, but it was less than 1% of the time his teacher had cultivated.
What sort of terrifying natural endowment and strength was that?
Moreover, those who could be called Immortal Masters were at least at the fourth tier of the Tribulation Stage.
It was no exaggeration to say that even those at the Tribulation Stage First Tier were already invincible in these people’s eyes.
Not to mention that Zhang Han was in the fourth tier.
There were nine tiers in the Tribulation Stage. The battle power of someone in the Tribulation Stage would double with each tier he advanced.
“Greetings, Immortal Master. Please forgive me for offending you earlier,” the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak said as he rose to his feet, his voice trembling.
He was really scared.
“Greetings, Immortal Master,” the Red Snow Mountain Leader said respectfully.
“Greetings, Immortal Master.”
Young Master Dong came to his senses and immediately greeted Zhang Han.
“You’ve also offended my Big Brother Hanyang?” Grand Master Chu suddenly turned to look at the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak.
“Well…” The Taoist Lord of Azurepeak was completely stunned.
He could even hear his own heartbeat, and he was extremely nervous.
Immortal Masters were lofty figures who were moody. Occasionally, some of them would pa.s.s by the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven.
There were some who obtained shocking opportunities. After receiving a bit of guidance, their accomplishments would be limitless.
When some people offended the Immortal Master by just saying something unpleasant, they could be killed with a snap of the Immortal Masters’ fingers, and no one could stop them.
There were even several large sects that had died in the hands of some Tribulation Stage experts.
How powerful were those people?
This was why the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak was beginning to feel a bit terrified.
He didn’t know what the relations.h.i.+p between Chu Qingyi and Han Yang Immortal was. “If she is his woman… I acted as a peacemaker and even said something arrogant in front of him. If I offended him, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
“He didn’t offend me. He just said something, which was not inappropriate.” Zhang Han shook his head slightly.
He also felt a little strange.
If Mengmeng, Zi Yan, and the others were by his side, Zhang Han would probably laugh out loud and even have a funny talk.
But at this time, he was not in the mood to do that.
Perhaps Grand Master Chu had already noticed something.
He said, “You can go out and have a rest first. I have something to talk about with Brother Hanyang.”
“Okay, we’ll leave you to the room. See you later, Brother Hanyang,” Old Taoist Honghu said with a smile.
“Brother Hanyang, I’ll punish myself with three jars of wine later for saying the wrong thing previously,” the Taoist Lord of Azurepeak said.
They excused themselves one after another and walked out of the main hall.
During this period, Young Master Dong was in a daze and subconsciously glanced at Chu Qingyi.
“Life is always full of surprises.
“Chu Qingyi got an Immortal Master to be her master.
“Is he simply her master, or is there something going on between them?”
Young Master Dong didn’t know what was the deal between them.
He kept thinking about some dirty scenes.
“Why are you still here?”
Grand Master Chu glanced at Chu Qingyi.
The look on his face revealed his dissatisfaction with her staying.
He didn’t show any mercy to her at all. It was as if all Grand Master Chu cared about was Brother Hanyang at this time.
Zhang Han said, “She can stay here.”
After he met with some old friends, the little secret between him and Zi Yan that he was reborn from the Tribulation Stage Ninth Tier was almost about to be made public.
Chu Qingyi didn’t know about this yet. When she heard what Grand Master Chu said, she was stunned on the spot.
“Brother Hanyang.”
Grand Master Chu’s face was filled with respect, confusion, and fear.
“When you were at the Tribulation Stage Ninth Tier, you were required to take divine tribulation and attracted the legendary divine thunder over the sky. Thousands of Tribulation Stage experts personally witnessed it. But I heard that you didn’t manage to survive.”
“Huh.”
Zhang Han smiled faintly and said with a little emotion, “I didn’t make it, so now I’m half-crippled. Maybe you can kill me with just one finger.”
Hiss!
Grand Master Chu gasped and said, “Please don’t joke with me, Brother Hanyang. I wouldn’t dare to hurt you.”
“The divine thunder over the sky has a great impact on me.” Zhang Han sighed softly and said, “But it’s a wonderful impact. Who knows if it’s a blessing in disguise?”
He was reborn and started a family. He had Zi Yan, Mengmeng, his parents, a sister, etc. He had a good life and was happy.
It was all thanks to the divine thunder over the sky.
Otherwise, what fun would there be in life if he was alone for his entire life?
That was what he thought, but when Grand Master Chu heard his story, he was stunned. “What?! Brother Hanyang used to be so powerful, and now he’s having an even better life? “Doesn’t that mean his natural endowments are several times more terrifying?”
He was really shocked.
But he was also very delighted and said happily, “Congratulations, Brother Hanyang. Hahaha, if you encounter the divine thunder over the sky again this time, you will just smash it with your fist! You’re so invincible!”
Zhang Han was silent for a moment.
It seemed to be a misunderstanding.
“I’m not that strong now. You can think of it as that I’m still recovering,” Zhang Han said.
“Got it. The divine thunder over the sky is so terrible. It will take you some years to recover.” Grand Master Chu smiled and said, “Brother Hanyang, your strength hasn’t recovered yet. You should stay at our place for the time being, right? If you need something, I’ll just get it for you. When you recover, I think… I want to go out with you to broaden my horizons. I haven’t been to the Center Galaxy yet.”
While speaking, Grand Master Chu looked a little coy.
Chu Qingyi felt a chill run down her spine when she saw that.
“By the way, Brother Hanyang, there is something very strange.”
Grand Master Chu said, “Sect Leader Ning told me the news about you. He has been back several times. He said that there is no longer the legend of Han Yang Immortal in the entire Cultivation World.
“I asked him what he meant. He said that many people don’t know Han Yang Immortal, and they hadn’t even heard of the t.i.tle. It’s strange because many experts have seen you pa.s.sing the tribulation with their own eyes. It took Sect Leader Ning decades to understand that only those who were familiar with you could remember you. The others don’t know about you. It’s as if Han Yang Immortal’s deeds had been erased from those people’s memories. This is terrifying to think about.” Grand Master Chu said, “What kind of power can affect the Cultivation World?”
When Zhang Han heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, “Maybe it’s because of the Law of the divine thunder over the sky. I didn’t summon the divine thunder alone. I can feel that there’s only one divine thunder in the Cultivation World. It’s not difficult for it to follow some patterns or change some rules. It doesn’t matter if the world knows me or not.”
“You’re still so carefree.” Grand Master Chu smiled bitterly and said, “If it were me, I would definitely not be able to reach this state of mind. I wonder why you came to my family this time?”
“I need to get something trivial done. It’s not convenient for me to go around now, so Qingyi suggested that we come to the Chu Family to pay a visit. I didn’t expect to see you here,” Zhang Han said.
“That’s a great surprise. Hahahaha.” Grand Master Chu laughed and said, “Fortunately, you’re here. Otherwise, how many years would it take for me to see you again?”
The implication was that they could only meet when Zhang Han was undergoing his tribulation.
“I was afraid you would forget about me.” Grand Master Chu said with a smile, “Over the years, I’ve experienced life and death many times. Every time I’m in a life-and-death situation, an image would always flash across my mind. You said to me when I was young that there’s no such thing as a situation where there are sure deaths.
“This sentence has a great impact on me. As the saying goes, there would always be a slim chance of survival even if there is a crisis. I worked hard and finally found a way out in several secret realms. Now I have reached the Mastery Realm. It took me 1,200 years to do that, which is very excellent, isn’t it? Well, am I awesome in this respect?”
Grand Master Chu looked at Zhang Han with expectation.
He seemed to want to get some praise.
Chu Qingyi was a little stunned when she saw this.
She couldn’t understand how much impact it would have on a young man when Zhang Han went through the tribulation and gave him guidance.
It was an experience that affected Grand Master Chu’s cultivation much.
Moreover, Zhang Han was now taking Chu Zheng on a tour for some days.
Grand Master Chu thought much of his first cultivation teacher.
“Now that you have advanced to the Mastery Realm, you can be considered a genius.”
Zhang Han nodded, and his tone seemed a little reluctant.
Chu Qingyi was very skeptical. “Is this a compliment?”
Unexpectedly, Grand Master Chu laughed and said, “Thank you for taking care of me back then, Brother Hanyang. Otherwise, I might not have been able to become a cultivator in my whole life.”
Back then, Chu Zheng did not possess any talent for cultivation. He was only an ordinary mortal and even possessed an incomplete body.
He was a doorman in a restaurant. Because of this, Zhang Han was quite interested in him. He took him on a tour and finally changed his incomplete physique.
And now, Grand Master Chu had reached the Mastery Realm.
He knew that he had suffered a lot, so he had always regarded Zhang Han as his great benefactor.
Without Zhang Han’s enlightenment at the beginning, he would have had no opportunities later in his life.
“Brother Hanyang, why don’t you stay here for a few more days?” Grand Master Chu sincerely invited him.
“I’m here mainly to do something,” Zhang Han said.
“Right.” Grand Master Chu patted his forehead. “Brother, if you need anything, just say it. As long as I can do it, I’ll go through fire and water to get it done without hesitation.”
“It isn’t that serious.”
Hearing what Grand Master Chu said, Zhang Han couldn’t help laughing. After thinking for a while, he said, “After I failed to pa.s.s the tribulation, I began to cultivate again. I got married, and I have many followers. There were dozens of people with me when I went out. There was an accident and we were swallowed by s.p.a.ce. I didn’t know where they have been scattered, so I came to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven to find them. I heard that the Chu Family has some prestige in the Astral Domain…”
“You need to find some people. Is that all?”
Before Zhang Han could finish his words, Grand Master Chu patted his chest and said, “Brother, don’t worry. Leave this matter to me. I’ll contact some old friends in person and mobilize all my forces to look for your family.”
At the same time, he couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of s.p.a.ce devoured you? Where were you before?”
“I was in the Heavenly Dragon Star Province.”
Hiss!
Grand Master Chu gasped when he heard that.
He couldn’t imagine what kind of spatial power could transmit someone to this place from so long a distance.
“If Sect Master Ning and Elder Bai know that you’re still alive, they would definitely be delighted. Unfortunately, they are no longer in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven,” said Grand Master Chu with a smile.
“Where are they?” Zhang Han asked.
“The last time we met was in the Ocean Astral Domain. Sect Leader Ning is really amazing. He’s been training his mind since a hundred years ago and preparing to cross the tribulation. Now, he may be at the Tribulation Stage,” Grand Master Chu said with a rather emotional look.
“Really? A hundred years should be enough.” Zhang Han slightly narrowed his eyes.
Sect Leader Ning, Elder Bai, and the others were the few old friends Zhang Han had.
“Now, has the Cultivation World also become prosperous?”
They hadn’t seen each other for a long time. Zhang Han didn’t know what it would be like when they met.
