Jianchen stood at the edge of the main road leading to the city with his arms crossed outside the city. He waited patiently as he watched the cultivators enter and leave the city.
A few seconds later, the white-clothed He Qianqian and the plainly dressed Jin Hong appeared on the tall walls of the city at the same time. Their gazes immediately locked onto the composed Jianchen below.
Jianchen seemed rather travel-worn right now. He seemed slightly exhausted, and his hair was slightly messy. His white robes were stained with specks of green liquid and dust. One of his sleeves had even been slightly damaged.
Jin Hong and He Qianqian could tell with a single glance that the green liquid on Jianchen was the liquid of some of the plants in Two World Mountain. Coupled with his tattered clothes and heavy exhaustion, it all clearly demonstrated just how difficult his time in Two World Mountain had been.
He Qianqian was greatly moved when she saw the travel-worn and exhausted Jianchen. She understood that when the late Divine King Life-Devouring Beast chased after them in Two World Mountain, it was Jianchen who had stepped forward without any hesitation and lured the Life-Devouring Beast King away at great risk, which gave them precious time to escape.
However, Jianchen had ended up trapped in the depths of Two World Mountain for so long because of her actions. She did not know what Jianchen had gone through in Two World Mountain, but she did know just how heavy of a price the group had paid when they crossed the mountain. They had gone through so many life-threatening situations, and just how difficult it was for them to successfully make it out of Two World Mountain.
Even such a large group had ended up like that, let alone Jianchen who was all alone.
Jin Hong leapt down from the walls and directly ignored the soldiers who bowed at him.
He arrived before Jianchen in a single stride and patted Jianchen's shoulder heavily. He laughed aloud, "Chang Yang, you've finally come out. And I had thought you were stuck in the depths of Two World Mountain."
As he said that, a gleam of light flickered through Jin Hong's eyes. He could feel the power of his bloodline stir once again as he came into contact with Jianchen at such a close distance. It was boiling as if it was about to ignite. It was filled with an extremely great desire.
It was as if something on Jianchen was clearly extremely important to him, which was why it could stir up the power of his bloodline.
"Brother Jin Hong, you're exaggerating. I lived in fear at all times in Two World Mountain. Even the slightest carelessness could cost me my life. It's not that I didn't want to come out earlier, but that it was difficult," Jianchen bitterly smiled.
He Qianqian and Jin Hong both agreed with that. They guessed that Chang Yang must have encountered the pursuit of many Life-devouring Beasts in Two World Mountain during this period of time. He had used the Laws of Space to frantically flee, so it was unavoidable for him to take many detours under such circumstances. He might have even been forced to make a detour when powerful Life-devouring Beasts blocked his path.
Jin Hong and He Qianqian felt even more guilty towards Jianchen when they thought up to there.
"Chang Yang, you've suffered in the past few days, but don't worry. I, He Qianqian, will use other methods to make up for what you've suffered in Two World Mountain," He Qianqian also arrived before Jianchen and stood beside Jin Hong. She thanked him from the bottom of her heart.
"Yes, yes, yes. You lured the Life Sucking Beast King away without hesitation, saving us all. We owe you a favor. I, Jin Hong, will repay this favor for you," Jin Hong said solemnly.
Afterwards, Jianchen entered the Hundred Saints City without any obstructions under the personal invitation and accompaniment of Jin Hong and He Qianqian. In the end, he was invited to the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall by He Qianqian.
After all, logically speaking, Jianchen was still a member of the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall. As long as he did not leave the World of the Fallen Beast, his identity would be tied to the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall.
Both He Qianqian and Jin Hong were great figures of great authority in the Hundred Saints City because they were the people with the highest status in their clans. They each led a large number of Divine King -level sacrificial warriors. Under certain circumstances, they could unleash the battle prowess of the Primordial realm.
As a result, the two of them personally inviting an outsider into the Hundred Saints City naturally attracted the attention of many organisations in the city. For example, the spies of the many peak organisations in the city all reported this to their masters as soon as possible.
Suddenly, the leaders of the various forces in the Divine Halls in the various regions of the Hundred Saints City were shocked and surprised when they heard the news.
"What did you say? He Qianqian and Jin Hong have personally gone to the city to receive a cultivator into the city? What kind of status do the two of them have? Who exactly is qualified for them to personally welcome them … "
.....
"Are you sure? Did He Qianqian and Jin Hong really go to the city to receive a person from the Saints' World personally?"
.....
"Impossible. Just what kind of status do He Qianqian and Jin Hong have? One of them is a direct descendant of the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall, while the other is the young master of the Ashwolf clan. In terms of status, they're much more noble than me. Just who has such great authority? They actually have to receive him personally? Hold on … draw that person's portrait … "
Afterwards, an attendant immediately began to draw in the air. Using his finger as a brush and energy as ink, he drew Jianchen's portrait in a life-like manner. This kind of method was an insignificant matter to any Deity Realm martial artist.
"It's actually Chang Yang. H- how is this possible? Chang Yang is actually still alive. He made it out of the Two World Mountain alive …"
.....
Basically at the same time, the representatives of the various organisations all received Jianchen's portrait. However, when they learnt that Jianchen had not died in the Two World Mountain and had even returned safely, they all reacted differently after recovering from their surprise.
Among them, the Emperor Lotus Sword sect, Baizhan clan, Crimson Light clan, Lutian clan, Man family, and Sun family all rejoiced over Jianchen's safe return. As a matter of fact, the leaders of a few organisations, such as the prodigy of the Emperor Lotus Sword sect, Ping Yisheng, immediately got people to prepare great gifts as soon as they learnt that Jianchen had returned. They personally brought the gifts to the Heavenly Crane Divine Hall.
Of course, there were many organisations that did not care. Not everyone agreed with what Jianchen had done in the Two World Mountain. In the eyes of a few prodigies of great status who were used to others dying to protect them, they all believed that Jianchen's actions should have been like that. It was as if this was the mission of independent cultivators in their eyes.
Bang!
At the same time, the sound of bottles being smashed rang out from the divine hall of the Chu family. The sounds constantly rang out.
Chu Jie's anger could not be quenched. He was currently throwing a huge tantrum. Inside the grand hall, all the decorative bottles and jars were smashed into pieces by him. The tables and chairs were also sent flying. The entire divine hall was in a mess.
Nearby, a few old Overgods stood to one side. They did not dare to say anything, so they could only let Chu Jie throw a fit.
A while later, when there was nothing left in the divine hall to vent his anger, Chu Jie finally stopped. His eyes were slightly red, but they were extremely shocking. They radiated with shocking killing intent as he breathed heavily, "Originally, I thought that Chang Yang had died in the Two World Mountain, but I never thought that not only was he still alive, but he's even returned in one piece. He sure is lucky."
"But this is even better. I just happen to have the opportunity to kill you personally. Chang Yang, I can't do anything to you in the Two World Mountain due to the limitations of the environment, but now that we're outside, it's not up to you to decide. You are very powerful, but no matter how powerful you are, can you fend off a Primordial realm expert … "
