Chapter 52 Gathering 31
"Ghost Hand King, when have you ever been so kind? Is that kid your grandson?"
Huang Fang sneered.
Upon hearing this, Ghost Hand King chuckled and said, "If he were my grandson, that would be wonderful. Then my mantle would have a successor."
"What?"
Huang Fang looked at Ghost Hand King in shock and said, "Ghost Hand King, are you drunk? That kid is obviously a disciple of the Sanyi Sect. Why would he give up being a proper disciple of the Xuanmen Sect to practice martial arts like you? Unless that kid has lost his mind."
"Hey hey hey!"
Despite Huang Fang's sarcastic remarks, Ghost Hand King remained unperturbed, merely chuckling as he watched Li Muxuan disappear into the crowd.
“That little guy is indeed quite talented, and it’s understandable that Senior Wang would take a liking to him.”
At this moment, the young man beside him spoke up: "But Senior Wang, aren't you afraid of being targeted by the San Yi Sect for doing this?"
Upon hearing this, Ghost Hand King turned to look at the young man, giving him a meaningful look.
At this moment, Huang Fang, who was still kept in the dark, became somewhat displeased and looked at the young man, saying, "Newcomer, what did you figure out?"
Upon hearing this, the young man did not answer, but turned to look around and said, "More and more people are coming. Although we have disguised ourselves, let's find a secluded corner to hide. If those righteous people find us, we might really die here today."
Without saying anything more, the three of them found a tree and hid there.
Passersby glanced at it but then paid no further attention.
After all, what kind of weirdos doesn't exist in the world of supernatural beings? Climbing trees is nothing. If it weren't for the disciples of the Sanyi Sect keeping an eye on things, a guy in red would have already climbed onto the roof.
……
"Hey, why hasn't Zhao Yifan arrived yet?"
Squatting on a chair, Fengping looked restless, as if there were nails on the chair beneath him.
"Fengping, haven't you learned your lesson from last time? Have you forgotten how you were subdued by Tian Tong Dao Ren in one move?"
At this moment, a voice came from Yanwutang. It was Liu Deshui who spoke.
In an instant, many people cast gloating glances at Feng Ping.
Noticing the gazes directed at him, Feng Ping was neither ashamed nor angry. Instead, he said nonchalantly, "Don't talk about me. Tian Tong Dao Ren has never lost a challenge against any extraordinary person in the world. Even the Celestial Master was defeated by him. Losing to him is not unjust. This shows that I am on the same level as the Celestial Master!"
After saying that, Fengping gave everyone a shameless smile.
"Hmph, how shameless!"
A cold snort rang out, and the speaker was none other than Lü Ci, one of the two pillars of the Lü family.
Upon hearing this, Feng Ping glanced at Lü Ci and said with a displeased expression, "Yes, I'm shameless, but I'm still better than some people. Their own father was beaten by a junior, and they still have to announce to the world that they're inferior to others. By the way, what does it feel like to be defeated by Zhao Yifan, Second Young Master Lü? Did your father ever tell you about his experience?"
"you wanna die!"
Upon hearing Feng Ping's words, Lü Ci's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
This matter was already a sore spot for Lü Ci, and now that Feng Ping had revealed it in front of so many people, it gave him an urge to kill.
"Heh, I might not be able to beat Tian Tong Dao Ren, but do you think I'm afraid of you? Young Master Lü, come on, make your move!"
Fengping showed no fear whatsoever when facing Lü Ci.
The next moment, a knife slid out of Lü Ci's sleeve, clearly indicating that Lü Ci was truly intent on killing.
However, before Lü Ci could make a move, an arm gripped his neck tightly, and Lü Ren said with a smile, "My younger brother has been in a bad mood lately, please don't mind him."
After saying that, Lü Ren carried the still struggling Lü Ci away. However, before leaving, Lü Ren's gaze inadvertently glanced at Feng Ping.
Just one look from him sent chills down Fengping's spine.
"That rascal!"
Gritting his teeth, Fengping couldn't forget Lü Ren's last look.
He realized that the seemingly harmless Lü Ren was probably one of the two pillars of the Lü family, and a more dangerous one at that.
"After this is over, I'll use Fire Release to go home. Well, it's not that I'm afraid of that guy, it's just that I still have a jar of good wine waiting for me to enjoy."
In normal times, conflicts among the younger generation would certainly result in reprimands from the elders.
However, at this moment, none of the elders had the mind to deal with the petty squabbles of the younger generation.
The reason is that the entire world of supernatural beings is now focused on two people.
Zhang Zhiwei, a Taoist priest from Tiantong!
With the appearance of an immortal, Zhao Yifan!
"Master, is that kid from Longhu Mountain really that powerful, even you are no match for him?"
An elderly man from the Secret Painting Workshop looked at the Celestial Master and voiced the doubts in everyone's hearts.
Although there have been rumors circulating recently that Zhao Yifan and Zhang Zhiwei defeated masters from various schools.
However, defeating the Celestial Master is a bit too absurd.
After all, there are very few people in the entire world of supernatural beings who can be compared with the Celestial Master. No matter how talented a junior is, without the accumulation of time, how could he possibly defeat the Celestial Master who stands at the pinnacle of the entire world of supernatural beings?
Is this perhaps the Celestial Master promoting his disciple?
This is a doubt in the minds of many.
"My wicked disciple has found his own path!"
The Celestial Master's answer was very simple and clear.
However, this simple answer shocked everyone present.
The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao!
The Tao is the source of all principles. Attaining the Tao is mysterious and profound, yet it is the goal pursued by countless people.
There were many senior figures and experts from the world of supernatural beings present, but very few dared to claim that they had attained enlightenment.
For a major esoteric sect like Longhu Mountain, everyone knows what it means for a disciple to attain enlightenment.
That means this child has already embarked on the path to heaven.
"Tongtian, Tiantong, it seems that the title of 'disciple of the Celestial Master' is quite fitting."
The person from Baicaotang said with a smile, but no one knew how sincere his words were.
"Chief Zuo has arrived!"
Suddenly, a loud singing voice rang out.
The next moment, in everyone's sight, a graceful, ethereal figure slowly descended from the sky.
In the arena, many people with keen eyesight suddenly contracted their pupils. With just one glance, they could tell that Zuo Ruotong was different from before.
Among them, Zhang Jingqing saw more than others.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but Zuo Ruotong stopped him with a smile, saying, "Brother Zhang, I know you have many questions in your heart. I will tell you after today's matter is over."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jingqing paused for a moment, then said, "Is it related to your disciple?"
Zuo Ruotong smiled without saying a word, and the others didn't know what to say either.
"Is that the legendary Immortal Zuo Ruotong of Daying? Is he really about to become an immortal?!"
Up in the tree, the young man looked at the graceful figure high above, his mouth agape as if he could fit several eggs in it.
"Could it be that I was wrong? Could this Triple Rebirth technique truly be able to reach the heavens?"
