Chapter 372: Reunion with an Acquaintance, Princess “Sui Feng” of the Peacock Clan
With the assistance of the flying magical beast, Chen Changsheng and the others quickly arrived at the entrance of the Mountain River Academy.
Majestic green mountains stood tall on the earth, with a flight of stairs spiraling around them, ultimately leading to the magnificent structure at the mountain’s peak.
Countless heavenly prodigies were quietly waiting at the foot of the mountain.
At the same time, the emotions in everyone’s eyes were different.
Some were filled with battle intent, some were filled with longing, and others were filled with a desire for exploration of the unknown…
“Hu~”
Gently landing and setting down Chen Changsheng and the others, the flying magical beast turned around and flew back.
In response to this commotion, several heavenly prodigies cast glances in their direction.
However, most of their attention was on Qian Ya, as her strength was deemed “the strongest” among everyone present.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Now this is interesting.”
“The previous Wanxiang City was just too boring, there weren’t even a few divine realm cultivators to see.”
Having sensed the surrounding auras, Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.
After arriving at the Mountain River Academy, Qian Ya also put away her usual merchant demeanor and took on the aura of the Wanbao Pavilion’s leader.
However, before Chen Changsheng could take the next step, loud dragon roars echoed from the sky.
“Ang~”
Six Jiaolong flew in, pulling a glamorous war chariot.
On the chariot sat a woman, cold as ice.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Jiaolong pulling a chariot, what a grand display. Who is she?”
In response, the bored Hu Tudou glanced over and replied, “The Princess of the Peacock Clan, younger sister of the Peacock Young King ‘Sui Feng’, known as the second heavenly prodigy of the Demon Court.”
“With a strength reaching the pinnacle of the bl**d Transfer Realm, it is said she defeated a strong opponent in the Bone Transformation Realm using her bl**d Transfer Realm skills.”
“Moreover, the Jiaolong Clan was originally a vassal race of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, but later, due to the Demon Court’s arrangement, they became subordinate to the Peacock Clan.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng looked at Tudou with a peculiar expression.
It felt as if he was saying, “They’ve taken away a vassal race, and you don’t care?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Hu Tudou shrugged and said, “This has nothing to do with me; you know I don’t like to get involved in these matters.”
“At that time, Luna had issues, and no one in the clan could speak for them, so the Demon Court took advantage of it.”
“Besides, the Jiaolong Clan is quite stubborn; managing them is complicated.”
Listening to Hu Tudou’s response, Chen Changsheng gave her a knowing glance, then continued to watch the elegantly appearing woman.
“Hu~”
The massive body of the Jiaolong stirred up a cloud of dust, and many heavenly prodigies below quickly gave way.
After all, the younger sister of the Peacock Young King was not someone who could be trifled with.
Suddenly, while watching the spectacle, Chen Changsheng’s expression grew serious.
His gaze locked onto a simple young man who was just getting up to avoid him.
The young man was dressed in coarse linen, his eyes as calm as a still pond, and he carried a simple long sword on his back.
“Catch him!”
Chen Changsheng quickly uttered, then leaped out like a fierce tiger.
At the same time, Hu Tudou also moved in sync with Chen Changsheng.
Although the power they exhibited was only in the Shore of the Other Side Realm and the Consciousness Realm, as true top-tier strong beings, their momentum was like a tidal wave.
The person Chen Changsheng wanted to catch also noticed him; at first, he was taken aback, then furrowed his brow and quickly fled.
Interestingly, Princess Sui Feng’s chariot blocked Chen Changsheng’s path.
Seeing this, Sui Feng frowned and said lightly, “Presumptuous!”
Despite her soft voice, formidable pressure enveloped the two.
Facing such a situation, Chen Changsheng squinted his eyes, and the icy killing intent made Sui Feng tremble slightly.
The strength he and Tudou were exhibiting wasn’t strong, and trying to deal with this Sui Feng might be somewhat troublesome.
However, the crux of the matter was that he had just spotted an acquaintance.
This acquaintance was elusive, and if he didn’t seize this opportunity to catch him, it would be difficult in the future.
Just as Chen Changsheng prepared to take some risks to use his methods, the latecomer Qian Ya finally reacted and blocked Sui Feng’s pressure.
With Qian Ya intervening against Sui Feng, Chen Changsheng and Hu Tudou abandoned their plans to reveal their identities and began their full pursuit of the young man.
…
In a remote place.
“Swish!”
Hu Tudou suddenly appeared in front of the young man, her powerful strength locking down the surrounding space.
Strangely, however, the young man moved freely in the face of Hu Tudou’s tactics.
“Tsk tsk!”
“You really run fast; I can’t catch you alone.”
Chen Changsheng tore through the void and emerged, accompanied by three figures dressed in black robes.
Glimpsing at Hu Tudou and then at the approaching Chen Changsheng, the young man spoke.
“Why do you always linger around? The Battle of Extinction didn’t k*ll you; I really don’t know how you’re still alive.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng laughed.
“Hahaha!”
“If you’re still alive, how could I possibly be dead?”
“Plus, you can see the situation; if you keep running, I might just have to get serious.”
Hearing this, the young man sighed in resignation.
“Fine, I’ll concede this time. Withdraw your space techniques; you can’t stop me.”
Saying that, the young man sat down on the ground.
Seeing this, Hu Tudou shot a questioning glance at Chen Changsheng.
And Chen Changsheng waved his hand at Hu Tudou, saying, “Let’s withdraw; showing off in front of this senior is beyond your capabilities.”
“When you were still a little fox, this senior was already the overlord of the Three Thousand Continents.”
As these words were said, Hu Tudou’s eyes instantly narrowed.
Three Thousand Continents—a term both familiar and strange.
She was merely one who existed in the late period of the Three Thousand Continents, and this young man turned out to be the former overlord, no wonder Chen Changsheng wanted to catch him.
Just as Hu Tudou was sorting her thoughts, Chen Changsheng had already sat down beside the young man.
Looking at the young man beside him, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “The bloodline curse of Wang Hao has caused the world to lose seventy percent of its spirits through several great battles.”
“In such circumstances, not being dead is quite impressive for you.”
That’s right; the person before him was none other than Ling Cangzhou, Ancestor of the Wang Family.
“Heh!”
“Some of my methods are just minor tricks in front of you.”
“The Demon Court, the Heavenly Court, the Mountain River Academy; every event behind them has your fingerprints on it.”
“What’s more remarkable is that despite all these events, you’re still alive and well.”
“The defeat of the Three Thousand Continents was not unjust in your hands.”
“Hahaha!”
“Those are all things of the past; why bring them up? We’re all acquaintances now.”
“Bringing that up hurts feelings.”
“Don’t!”
“I have no interest in building rapport with you; just speak plainly without beating around the bush.”
