Chapter 630
C630 – Sun City’s Conjecture
“What? Yin Tianzi and Tianji Zi originated from the same place? How can this be?”
“Indeed. Tianji Zi belongs to the Human Clan, whereas Yin Tianzi is from the Burial World. They represent different life forms. Elder, are you absolutely certain you’re not mistaken?”
Jiang Shengyang stared at Sloppy Old Man in disbelief.
If the elder claimed that Tianji Zi and Zhang Xuan hailed from the same origin, he would accept it without hesitation.
Zhang Xuan was enigmatic and extraordinarily formidable, just as Tianji Zi was renowned as the world’s strongest expert.
These two individuals had suddenly emerged in this world. Their backgrounds remained shrouded in mystery, with no discernible traces to follow.
Despite assertions from the Zhang family that Zhang Xuan might be their long-lost young master, concrete evidence was elusive.
Moreover, Jiang Shengyang had never heard of the “Earth” referenced by the elder.
“Thump!”
Jiang Shengyang’s eyes widened as a sudden realization struck him.
“Elder, do you think the Zhang family intentionally propagated the notion that Zhang Xuan is their lost scion? Could it be… Elder Zhang Hao deliberately leaked this information?”contemporary romance
“Or perhaps… Zhang Xuan is…” Jiang Shengyang’s eyes sparkled with insight. “Zhang Xuan is the reincarnation of Elder Zhang Hao!”
Upon hearing Jiang Shengyang’s conjecture, those around him gulped nervously. It didn’t seem entirely implausible.
Zhang Xuan was an exceedingly peculiar individual.
He had materialized seemingly out of nowhere several years ago, residing in seclusion in a remote locale. Then, suddenly, he wielded a power so formidable it instilled despair in onlookers.
Were it not for the rebirth of a formidable expert, he would have found himself submerged in the mire.
Regardless of how brilliant an individual might be, could they truly make such rapid advancements in just a few years?
Even the unparalleled prodigy Zhang Changsheng took over a century to reach such a stage. From their perspective, this already marked the pinnacle of human potential.
“I interrogated Zhang Tiangang. He pledged on his very soul that he had no involvement. Senior Zhang Hao’s Qi erupted in the Burial World two days ago. That senile fool Zhang Tiangang went to confront him.”
“During that period, Zhang Xuan was confined to the small courtyard, making it improbable for him to be the reincarnation of Senior Zhang Hao,” the Sloppy Old Man stated with uncertainty, indicating his own doubts.
“Esteemed Ancestor, in your estimation, how significant are the disparities between Tianji Zi, Yin Tianzi, Senior Zhang Hao, and Zhang Xuan?”
Lu Zhanfang inquired with keen interest.
The others, intrigued by Lu Zhanfang’s question, also turned their gaze towards the venerable Ancestor.
Aside from Jiang Shengyang, the rest harbored a deep curiosity about this elderly ancestor.
Extreme Tao Stage!
Their elder brother had just informed them about the existence of an ancient ancestor at the Extreme Tao Stage behind Sun City. Sun City’s enduring presence in the Chaotic Battlefield wasn’t solely due to their elder brother’s prowess but also owed to the formidable presence of this ancestor from ancient times.
Only upon encountering their ancient ancestor did they realize that the Monarch Stage wasn’t the pinnacle of martial arts. Even their ancestor, who resided in the Extreme Tao Stage Realm, didn’t represent the ultimate achievement in martial arts.
Luo Hou’s remarkable emergence and advancement into the Extreme Tao Stage Realm had left them speechless and astonished.
A Martial Cultivator in the Extreme Tao Stage Realm possessed such immense power that a single palm strike could obliterate an entire world, causing even the heavens and earth to quake.
Despite Luo Hou’s formidable strength, he found himself powerless against Tianji Zi.
It was then that they comprehended the vast disparity between themselves and Tianji Zi.
Given ample time and guidance from such a formidable ancestor, they might eventually reach that level. However, the sudden onset of the war caught them completely unprepared.
“No one can provide a definitive answer to this question because nobody can gauge the strength of the four individuals!”
“But if forced to rank them, Tianji Zi would undoubtedly hold the top position globally, followed by the second son of the Yin Prince and Zhang Hao’s third son. Zhang Xuan’s strength is considered relatively inferior among the four.”
“Yet, this ranking isn’t entirely accurate. Tianji Zi, Zhang Hao, and Yin Tianzi possess comparable strength, with minor fluctuations possible at any time!”
Upon hearing the ancient ancestor’s words, Jiang Shengyang and his companions were momentarily stunned before expressing their surprise, “Tianji Zi ranks first? Old ancestor, are you certain? Yin Tianzi nearly laid waste to the entire Chaotic World.”
“Old Ancestor, Senior Zhang Hao has secluded himself for tens of millions of years. He was also the primary force against the Yin Son of Heaven. Even without Tianji Zi’s intervention, given Senior Zhang Hao’s might… the Chaotic World shouldn’t have faced destruction. Prince Yin suffered injuries from Tianji Zi and Senior Zhang Hao.”
“Countless years have passed, yet there’s been no activity in the Burial World. Prince Yin must be recuperating from his injuries. Do you believe that Old Ancestor Zhang Hao is the most outstanding genius in the world?”
Clearly, they had no objections regarding Zhang Xuan’s ranking. The only dissenters were Tianji Zi and the other two.
“We hope that Senior Tiangang can locate Senior Zhang Hao swiftly. This would instill confidence in our Human Clan to resist.”
Zheng Meng expressed with optimism, receiving nods of agreement from the others.
……
On a narrow path.
A man strolled with a long spear strapped to his back, riding atop a bull.
“Third Bull, do you reckon I should echo Old Guan’s words, ‘Chen Ming in the courtyard,’ before taking action?”
“They’ve all made quite a name for themselves out here, but I seem to be the only one without a commendable reputation.”
“Moo!”
The Third Bull cast a glance at Chen Ming. You’re the Master’s disciple and also his brother-in-law. Your reputation isn’t as crucial anymore.
“What you’re saying sounds similar. Forget it, I don’t want to dwell on it. Our purpose here is training. We traverse the world, moving about freely. Staying confined to the small courtyard all day makes us susceptible to illness!”
“I sense a bottleneck in my progress. You see, this is the downside of intensive training. Although it accelerates my growth, it feels as though I’m a fledgling being hand-fed by the Master.”
Chen Ming leisurely took a sip from the wine pot, his aura subtly surging.
“Moo!”
The Third Bull regarded Chen Ming with scorn. If you want to shake off the image of being coddled, then abstain from drinking the owner’s brewed wine if you dare!
Shameless!
In the subsequent moment, upon seeing the large bowl handed over by Chen Ming, the Third Bull’s initial disdain transformed into admiration. It then unfurled its hefty tongue, allowing the wine in the bowl to flow into its stomach.
“Buzz!”
Its aura surged and fluctuated intensely. The Third Bull’s cultivation had successfully advanced.
“Buzz buzz!”
A sound of air being pierced sounded out as several hundred experts materialized before Chen Ming.
They gazed greedily at the Third Bull under Chen Ming’s command, exchanging glances amongst themselves. Stepping forward, a man addressed Chen Ming, “Youngster, we are the experts from Purple Mountain. Ever heard of it? Our Sect Master holds the pinnacle of Imperial Emperor status. This bull… We’re interested in purchasing it. So, what’s your price?”
“Boss, I’ve heard talk of three bulls in the compound. Could this be one of them?”
Suddenly interjected one of them.
The others paused for a moment, then swiftly comprehended what this individual was insinuating.
The bull in the compound was believed to be at least at the Monarch Stage. While the one before them didn’t seem to match that description exactly, they could easily claim otherwise.
This way, they wouldn’t need to worry about potential repercussions if they engaged in conflict, suspecting the youth before them belonged to another faction.
