Cheng Hao was speechless. He had already openly stomped his feet in front of these old men, but they were still looking for a senior expert. Did he not look like an expert at all?
In fact, the elders couldn't be blamed for this. After all, in this world where immortality was impossible, most of the senior experts had the image of a white-haired old man. For example, the old man with smooth skin sitting under the flowering tree didn't say a word from beginning to end. This was the demeanor of an expert.
For a young man like Cheng Hao who treated others kindly and didn't have the slightest arrogance, unless he truly displayed terrifying strength, in this world, no one would treat him as an expert.
Cheng Hao could not be bothered with these old men. He casually threw the fist-sized Celestial Source to Ye Fan.
"I don't have much use for this, so I'll give it to you! When everything is ready, you can come and find me at any time! "
Cheng Hao waved his hand at Ye Fan and glanced at Jiang Taixu. Then, he took a step forward and disappeared from the Ji Family's stone workshop, leaving behind ripples in the space.
With Cheng Hao's disappearance, the group of old men immediately felt their bodies loosen up. The invisible force that had trapped them immediately vanished without a trace.
The group of old men looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment. No matter how stupid they were, they now understood that the senior expert they had been looking for just now was actually the young man that everyone had called little friend.
"He did not even care about the Celestial Source and gave it away casually. Who is that person?"
"This little … fellow cultivator, I saw you standing with him just now. Can you tell us who that senior is?"
Seeing that Cheng Hao had disappeared as if he had teleported, the old men immediately surrounded Jiang Taixu. They looked like they would not allow him to leave if he did not tell them.
"Get out of my way!"
In front of Cheng Hao, Jiang Taixu was very good-tempered. However, in front of these people, he was not in the mood to chat with them. Especially when he had just lost the Eternal Universe Scripture, he was not in the mood to waste time here.
With a wave of his sleeve, a terrifying ray of divine light shot out. It was like a rain of immortals falling from the sky. In an instant, the surrounding elders were scattered into pieces!
Taking a step forward, Jiang Taixu stood in midair. At this moment, he had returned to his original appearance. His robes were whiter than snow, and his face was as handsome as jade. He looked like a god that had descended to the mortal world.
"You … you are …"
"I remember now. I've seen your portrait before. You're Jiang Taixu, the Divine King who disappeared four thousand years ago!"
"Heavens, it's been more than four thousand years. How are you still alive? How are you still able to maintain your youthful appearance?"
Looking at the young and handsome figure that had disappeared for more than four thousand years, and then looking at their old bodies, the group of old men immediately went crazy.
They were already dying, so they no longer feared Jiang Taixu's terrifying strength. Instead, they coveted Jiang Taixu's eternal youth and immortality method.
"Quickly speak. How are you still able to maintain your youthful appearance after living for so long?"
A white-haired old man whose teeth had all fallen out had a fiery look in his eyes. He crawled up from the ground like a madman and rushed towards Jiang Taixu.
To people like them who were about to die, there was nothing more attractive than increasing their lifespan. Although they knew they weren't a match for Jiang Taixu, they still wanted to try. Since they would die sooner or later, why not take a gamble today? Maybe, they might be able to carve out a resplendent future for themselves.
Among these old fellows, the weakest was at the first-level of immortal-foundation. There were even a few who were at the second-level. Some of them were even once Saint Lords of a sacred ground. Although they had retired long ago, their strength couldn't be underestimated. If they went crazy, even the sacred grounds wouldn't dare to antagonize them.
BANG!
A fist blasted out. Jiang Taixu's eyes were deep and his brows were sword-like. He was extremely calm, but when he attacked, he was like a supreme divinity walking in the mortal world. With a casual punch, half the body of the old man who attacked him was blasted apart. His legs were directly pulverized as his blood dyed the entire island red.
"Who else is there?"
Standing in the air, Jiang Taixu stared down at the old men with an indifferent expression. He didn't have any good impression of these old fellows who wanted to snatch benefits whenever they saw one.
"What should we do? Should we fight or should we leave? "
Some of the old men hesitated. The combat prowess Jiang Taixu displayed was too strong. At the very least, he was at the third-level immortal-severing realm. Although they had the advantage in numbers, they truly weren't a match for him.
"Let's retreat. Let's leave this place first before discussing our strategy. In any case, since he has appeared, he will return to the Jiang Clan sooner or later!"
"He has disappeared for over 4,000 years but his appearance hasn't changed at all. He either obtained the art of immortality or obtained the divine medicine of immortality by luck. No matter what the case is, he is worthy of our sacred grounds joining forces!"
"Go back and call for reinforcements. After we are fully prepared, we will threaten the Jiang Clan. If he wants to eat alone, he can only do so if he is a saint of this era!"
The group of old men transmitted their voices and clasped their fists at Jiang Taixu. After that, they silently carried the old man whose legs were broken away and vanished from the Ji Clan's stone workshop.
"Senior, if we let them go just like that, they might bring trouble to us in the future!" Ye Fan frowned as he looked at the disappearing figures.
"It doesn't matter!" Jiang Taixu shook his head nonchalantly. "Since I have returned, I will return to the Jiang Clan sooner or later. This news can't be kept a secret for long. In that case, we might as well lure out all those who have designs on me and get rid of them once and for all!"
During this period of time, he had already recovered more than half of his strength. Basically, he could unleash the strength of a saint. In this era where saints didn't appear, even if the sacred grounds rushed over with their Supreme Emperor Weapons, they wouldn't be a match for him.
After the short and intense battle, many cultivators had already left the Ji Clan's stone workshop for fear that they would be affected by the aftermath of the battle.
At the same time, the news of the return of the Jiang Clan's Divine King, Jiang Taixu, who had disappeared for more than 4,000 years, spread from the Divine City to all parts of the Northern Region. It caused an uproar among countless cultivators.
.....
Half a month later, in the Best Inn Under the Heavens, Jiang Taixu, Ye Fan, Pang Bo, Blacky, and the others gathered in the main hall of the Best Inn Under the Heavens. They were waiting for Cheng Hao to appear.
More than ten days ago, Jiang Taixu had passed the Eternal Universe Scripture to Cheng Hao. During this period, Cheng Hao had been in seclusion to comprehend the Eternal Universe Scripture. He didn't pay attention to the news from the outside world.
"Are you ready to leave the Big Dipper Starfield?" Jiang Taixu turned to look at Ye Fan when he saw that Cheng Hao would not appear for a while.
"Yes. My parents are getting old. It's better for me to go back as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'll always miss them." Ye Fan nodded.
