Man

“He’s so powerful!”
“He’s definitely a Heavenly Daoist Celestial!”
The cultivators on the street outside the inn gasped in awe.
As the one who started it all, Chu Kuangren remained calm on his seat by the
window. He did not seem to be bothered by the number of people at all.
The general in silver armor grunted. Then, a rampant and powerful energy
erupted from his body, and he charged into the inn for Chu Kuangren.
His strength was at the level of a Heavenly Daoist Celestial as well. The spear in
his hand danced in the air as he swung it in a flurry, whipping up a strong gale
that could tear through the void.
“Die, foreigner!” shouted the man.
“You know, as a fellow foreigner, listening to you calling me a foreigner feels
funny,” Chu Kuangren said with a scoff.
Here in Planquilon Immortal World, in order to stay longer and not be
discriminated against by the natives, a lot of foreigners worked hard to blend
- Some even despised their original ident.i.ty as foreigners.
They even tend to be harsher to fellow foreigners than the natives. It was as if
being harsh at fellow foreigners would allow them to forget their ident.i.ties.
There was only one word Chu Kuangren could say to them: ridiculous.
As he ignored the trusting spear coming closer to his face, his Emperor qi
erupted and ravaged the silver-armored general like the tidal wave.
Bone-cracking noise sounded upon impact. The silver-armored general took
the full blow and was sent flying backward, cras.h.i.+ng into another building
before everything went quiet.
“Boss, you’re awesome!” Lil Fox cheered excitedly.
Among the crowd, a pair of eyes, glimmering inexplicably, were watching Chu
Kuangren and Lil Fox behind him.
“He’s too strong. We can’t take him on. We must call higher ranking generals
here to deal with the matter!
“A Supreme Immortal Progeny?
The rest of the soldiers knew their strength. They knew that they were no
match to Chu Kuangren, so they decided to call for help.
Further away, a surge of powerful energy erupted all of a sudden, and two rays
of light flew over.
Judging from the energies, those two rays of light belonged to two late-stage
Heavenly Daoist Celestials
A late-stage Heavenly Daoist Celestial was one realm lower than an Immortal,
but they were the strongest in their own category.
Who dares cause trouble in Ancient Sparrow City?
“Hmph!
Two late-stage Heavenly Daoists arrived at the inn, and their energies allowed
them to lock on to Chu Kuangren immediately. Their rampant auras enveloped
heaven and earth.
“It’s a little tedious dealing with you people one by one. Why don’t I make my
way to the city hall?” Cold killing intents filled Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
Right before Chu Kuangren could make a move, another ray of white light flew
over and stopped the two late-stage Heavenly Daoist Celestial.
The person from the ray of light was an elderly in white robes and white hair.
He looked rather scrawny, but the aura around him felt extraordinary.
The two generals were surprised by the arrival of the elderly. They looked as if
they were scared of the man. “Bai clan Forefather! Why are you here?
Bai clan Forefather smiled. “Generals, this young man here is an acquaintance
of the Bai clan. I can’t just sit back and watch the two of you attack him.”
oh, is the Bai clan trying to go against the city call blatantly?” one of the
generals asked with a less friendly tone.
Throughout the years, the Bai clan had grown stronger and started to possess
the strength to rival the city hall, which has been the city hall’s concern since
then.
Although the generals knew it, they did not expect the Bai clan Forefather to
defy them in public by offering protection to the person hunted by the city hall.
“My good sirs, you’ve misunderstood my meaning. I am not going against the
city hall. I am actually here with the truth. One of the guards at the entrance
started this and tried to extort spiritual marrow from my friend here, hence
the misunderstanding. What he did was purely out of self-defense,” Bai clan
Forefather said.
“Hmph! I don’t care what happened or who started it, but he killed a general
and disrupted the order of Ancient Sparrow City. He must be punished for his
crimes!
“That’s right, Bai clan Forefather. Walk away.”
Bai clan Forefather thought for a moment before he took a Yin and Yang Ring
out. “Here’s ten billion spiritual marrow. Take it as compensation for the
inconvenience and trouble that my friend caused. The Bai clan will pay on his
behalf. How does that sound?
The two generals’ eyes glimmered in greed when they saw the ring, seemingly
moved. They thought about it for a while and did not accept the offer
immediately.
Then, as though they had received an order in their head, their eyes shone
brightly. One of them said, “Another ten billion.”
Bai clan Forefather clenched his teeth. “No problem!
He took out another ring with ten billion spiritual marrow, which totaled to
twenty billion spiritual marrow, and handed it over.
“Now, can I bring my friend away?
“Hmph! Bai clan, you better watch yourself,” one of the generals said before he
ordered a retreat.
“Why do you think the city lord let this guy off?
“Bai clan is growing stronger by the day, and the city lord wants an opportunity
to stop that. Maybe this foreigner is a chance for an opening. Besides, the Bai
clan won’t simply pay that much just to protect someone. This foreigner must
have some secrets with him.”
The two generals whispered to each other as they retreated.
Chu Kuangren watched from inside the inn and ruminated over what
happened. On the other hand, Lil Fox beside him was confused.
“Boss, what happened?
“Well know soon,” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
After that, Bai clan Forefather brought a young man to Chu Kuangren.
However, Bai clan Forefather did not lay his first glance on Chu Kuangren.
Instead, it was on Lil Fox
Chu Kuangren was deeply amused. ‘As expected
“Nice to meet you, Daoist Brother. I’m Bai Yeyue from the Bai clan,” the young
man said.
Chu Kuangren took a quick glance at the young man. He was more of a teen
rather thana young man, but his cultivation level had reached a late-stage
Great Daoist Celestial Realm.
He seemed to be a peerless Immortal Progeny.
Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren did not take the young man seriously.
“Tm Chu Kuangren.”
“Brother Chu, you must be confused about why we would help you. Actually, we
are trying to ask for a favor, and we hope that you can help us, the Bai clan,
with the Moonlight Fox in your company.”
Bai Yeyue cut to the chase and stated his intention.
“What if I say no?
“Brother Chu, we helped you. I’d suggest you appreciate our effort,” Bai Yeyue
said coldly.
“Did I ask for help?”
If it were not for the Bai clan’s interference, he would have slaughtered his way
to the city hall and put his sword at the city lord’s neck by now.
Rather than helping him, the Bai clan indirectly helped the city hall instead.
“You The look on Bai Yeyue’s face turned cold.
That was when the Bai clan Forefather reached out to him and stopped him.
Then, he smiled at Chu Kuangren, “Brother Chu, why don’t you listen to what
our request is. Maybe it will benefit you as well.
“Oh? T’m all ears then,” Chu Kuangren said, his interest piqued.
This is not a place for discussion. Why don’t you come to our place? Bai clan
Forefather said with a smile.
“of course,” Chu Kuangren said. He was not afraid of any tricks that the Bai
clan could pull.
Given his current strength, unless facing a real Immortal, he could do and go
whatever and wherever he wanted.
Back in the inn, the drunken old man with a jug of alcohol watched as Chu
Kuangren left with the Bai clan. A hiccup later, he mumbled, “A Supreme
Immortal Progeny with a lot of potentials. However, too bad the Bai clan had
their eyes on him.”
Following that, he mocked himself with a scoff, “What does it have to do with
me? I’m just a cripple.”
