"Haha, it's boring to drink alone. Let me keep you company."
At this moment, another faint laugh was heard. Divine Breath descended from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
His breath was weak, and he looked like an ordinary person. However, the young people blocking the entrance of the hall involuntarily stepped aside when they saw him.
Gu Tian said in surprise, "Hey, you're here to join in the fun too?"
"If you can come, so can I."
Divine Breath smiled faintly and turned to the owner of this place, Cang Shen. He cupped his hands and said, "I came uninvited. I hope you can forgive me."
Cang Shen quickly got up and said with a smile, "Don't mention it. It's my honor to have you here. Please take a seat!"
Wang Yankun and the others also got up to welcome him.
"Who is this person?"
"Why haven't I seen him before?"
"Is he also from Lord Asura's era?"
The young people were very surprised. He was an old acquaintance of Lord Asura. Cang Shen and the other big shots also got up to welcome him. Who exactly was this person?
Divine Breath had always kept a low profile, so he didn't leave much of a reputation in the Samsara Continent. People in the future knew nothing about him.
After everyone took their seats, Azure God gazed at Gu Tian and Shen Xi, and he sighed. "Time really passes quickly. Over 6,000 years have passed unknowingly. Since Wu Tian left all those years ago, all of you seemed to have vanished into thin air, and you rarely show yourself in the world. Those who don't know would think that all of you have perished!"
"Haha, the new generation will replace the old. Of course, opportunities will be left to the younger generation." Divine Breath smiled faintly.
Cang Shen sighed and said, "In these years, there are indeed many rising talents. However, compared to your generation, they are thousands of miles away. It seems that no one in the future can surpass you guys."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent for a moment.
More than six thousand years ago could be said to be the peak of the Samsara Continent. There were many talents and peerless geniuses.
For example, Asura King Wutian, Evil Heavenly King Han Tian, Fire God Di Tian, Heavenly Dipper King Tiangang, Demon King Longhu, Yama King Ye Tian, Buddha Demon King Gu Tian, the mysterious Shen Xi, the peerless monster Li Tian, and a few others with heaven-defying battle constitutions such as Gongsun Haoshu and Lin Yichen.
However, things had changed with the passage of time. Some of these people had left, while others had gone into seclusion. They didn't even know if some of them were still alive.
If these people had not left, the Samsara Continent would probably be a different place now.
Shen Xi smiled faintly and said, "No matter if it's a legend or a myth, it will be broken one day."
"I hope so."
Sky God chuckled, and then he looked at Gu Tian and teased. "Where have you been fooling around all these years?"
Gu Tian said seriously, "Benefactor, you're mistaken. During these past few years, I've wholeheartedly pursued the supreme profundities of the Buddhist Sect, so how could I be fooling around?"
"Ugh!"
Everyone was astounded, and they couldn't help but look at the One Armed Master.
When he saw everyone looking at him, the One Armed Master's expression instantly became unusual, and he glanced imperceptibly at Gu Tian before he closed his eyes and meditated.
This was what the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.
Actually, Gu Tian was a weirdo.
The disciples of the Buddhist Sect stressed upon having a pure heart and few desires, and everything was empty. However, what about him? Not only did he eat meat and drink wine, he even teased young girls sometimes. He could really be said to be the scum of the Buddhist Sect.
However, in terms of attainments in Buddhism, no one could compare to him.
This was the main reason why the One Armed Master and Buddha Remorse didn't care about him.
Gu Tian didn't mind in the slightest when he saw everyone's gazes become more and more strange, and he looked at the silent Meng Xuan and said with a smile, "Miss Meng Xuan, have you been well recently?"
Meng Xuan revealed a trace of a smile and nodded. However, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to discern that her smile wasn't sincere, and it was only a form of courtesy that she put on a show.
Gu Tian sighed deeply in his heart and said with a smile, "Miss Meng Xuan, I believe that he'll return sooner or later."
Meng Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your consolation, Brother Gu. Actually, after all these years, I've already become accustomed to this sort of life, and I don't have many requests in my heart. I only hope that he'll be able to survive safely somewhere else. That way, I'll be satisfied."
Besides those young people, everyone else in the hall knew what Meng Xuan was concerned about. Thus, all sorts of feelings arose in their hearts when they heard these words.
In this lifetime, how could he, Han Tian, not be satisfied when he was able to possess such an infatuated woman?
However, they were very clearly aware that Han Tian was unrestrained and frivolous, so it was probably an extremely distant matter for him to truly treat Meng Xuan well.
Bang!
Suddenly, a ferocious might descended.
God Cang smiled and said, "Our Little Lead for today has returned."
After that, he stood up and walked out.
Everyone else stood up successively and walked out in single file to stand on the lawn outside.
When they raised their heads to look over, they saw the Goldlightning Leopard tear through the sky like a bolt of lightning and descend before them.
Madman Shao leaped down and cupped his hands with a smile. "Everyone, long time no see."
Everyone cupped their fists in return.
"Greetings, Uncles."
After Shao Chen and his sister jumped down from the Goldlightning Leopard's back, they also bowed very politely to everyone.
Winged Dragon smiled and said, "After not seeing you for a few years, I didn't expect you to have grown so tall. I heard from your grandfather that you were training by the side of an expert. Tell Uncle Winged Dragon, who is this expert? "
"Expert?"
The siblings were slightly stunned, then they revealed expressions of realization.
"Uncle, come, I'll help you down."
The two little ones turned around and extended their hands towards Wutian.
Wutian smiled and said, "No need. I can still get down from this height."
"This voice?"
The pupils of Winged Dragon and the others constricted as they shifted their gazes towards Wutian.
"It's you!"
Immediately, everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they were filled with disbelief!
However, Shen Xi and Gu Tian were not surprised at all.
The group of youngsters at the side were puzzled. Who had come to make these big shots so surprised?
Meng Xuan looked at Wutian in a daze. She walked forward unconsciously and asked, "Is it you?"
Madman Shao smiled and said, "Everyone, you've got the wrong person. His name is Zhou Sheng, and he's a very ordinary mortal."
"Zhou Sheng?"
Everyone was stunned.
Meng Xuan frowned and said, "But his temperament …"
Madman Shao said, "As the saying goes, there are no stories without coincidences. When I first saw him, I also thought it was him. However, after I asked, it was confirmed that he wasn't him."
The Asura Palace's Ancestor said in a deep voice, "If he really isn't him and is just a mortal, why did you send your children to train by his side?"
"This …"
Madman Shao couldn't answer.
At this moment, Cang Zheng pushed open the door and said with a smile, "It's because Mister Zhou's understanding of life has reached an extraordinary level. I sent Chen 'er and Ling' er to Mister Zhou's side to train their minds."
"Is that really the case?"
Everyone was doubtful.
They were too alike, too alike.
Whether it was his temperament, his white hair, or his body shape, he was exactly the same as Wutian. Was it really just a coincidence?
If it was, then it was too much of a coincidence!
Wutian didn't say anything. He glanced at the crowd. In fact, he didn't plan to hide his identity, because most of the people here were his acquaintances. They used to fight side by side with him. For example, Wang Yankun, Gao Yanghan, and Han Zheng used to follow him. If he didn't change his temperament, how could he hide it from them?
However, he didn't expect Madman Shao to defend him first.
If it was in the past, he might have taken the initiative to speak. However, after seeing through the world and comprehending the profound of life and death, his state of mind was unparalleled. He just let nature take its course.
Sensing the strange atmosphere, Cang Shen's eyes flickered. He hastily said, "Everyone, don't just stand here. Let's go inside and have a seat."
To be honest, Wutian's arrival was beyond his expectation.
The Shura Palace's Ancestor looked deeply at Wutian and said, "I think we should sit outside. Since Shao Chen has returned, let's hold the coming of age ceremony directly."
Cang Shen didn't waste his breath. He nodded and said, "Alright. Servants, prepare the seats."
Soon, a dozen servants prepared the seats and brewed the tea.
When they were seated, Cang Shen wanted to give the main seat to Wutian. However, Wutian seemed to have expected this. Before Cang Shen could say anything, he casually sat down on a seat near the edge.
Gu Tian and Shen Xi sat on Wutian's left and right sides, but they also seemed to be sitting casually.
Madman Shao winked at his father-in-law. The latter was smart and didn't insist.
After the guests and the host were seated, Madman Shao personally captured a Hundred Dynasties Initial Stage vicious beast.
Ying Long frowned and said, "Madman Shao, Shao Chen is only at the Channel Opening Stage. You captured a Hundred Dynasties Stage black panther. Aren't you trying to kill him?"
The Shura Palace's Ancestor said indifferently, "Yes, don't force yourself. It's better to be careful."
"What? Shao Chen is only at the Channel Opening Stage? "
"Didn't he break through to the Channel Opening Stage when he was eleven? It's been five years. Why is he still at the Channel Opening Stage?"
"Could it be that the genius of the past has declined and has become a piece of trash?"
"Others are not allowed to help during the Coming of Age Ceremony. It seems like Shao Chen is doomed this time."
The youths standing at the side couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
No matter what era it was, the younger generation would always compete with each other. This was the law of nature. No one could change it.
The youths who were able to enter this place were basically the best of their generation. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were dragons and phoenixes among men. Hearing that Shao Chen's cultivation didn't improve at all, they were surprised and also gloated.
Shao Chen frowned.
Shao Ling whispered, "Brother, don't be angry. Later, use your strength to shut their mouths."
Shao Chen whispered, "That's right. Although I haven't been cultivating all these years, I don't know why, but I don't feel the slightest bit of fear when facing this Hundred Dynasties Stage vicious beast. Instead, my heart is filled with an intense battle intent!"
"Haha …"
Madman Shao swept his gaze across the crowd and suddenly laughed out loud. His gaze fell on Shao Chen as he shouted, "Little brat, you are my son. You are destined to be different from the rest. Do you have the confidence to kill it?"
Shao Chen looked at Wutian. Wutian smiled at him.
At that moment, Shao Chen's confidence surged. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly and he said proudly, "Of course!"
"Haha, that's my son. Come, show us your strength."
Madman Shao laughed out loud. He loosened his grip and the black panther immediately bared its fangs. With a terrifying aura, it pounced towards Shao Chen!
