"Pagoda Master, you're flattering me."
Being praised so bluntly, Fenghao smiled embarrassedly, appearing somewhat bashful.
Perhaps this was something that many people dreamed of, but he was not used to it.
"I'm not flattering you."
The old man laughed. The smile on his face grew wider after seeing his reaction. "Do you know what people call you now?"
Fenghao looked at him suspiciously. He really hadn't noticed this.
"Young Supreme Being."
The old man uttered these words in a serious tone.
He deserved it.
Even the old man had to admit that there was no one in the younger generation who could compete with him.
To be able to suppress the younger generation meant that he had the potential to become a Supreme Being.
After all, even the Divine Masters of the various clans could not do this. They could only dominate the world, but not everyone.
However, Fenghao had done it. He could even suppress the people of the older generation.
The old man could not help but look forward to seeing how Feng Hao would perform when he grew up and took the last step to become a half-step Martial Monarch.
Perhaps, by then, no one in the world would be a match for him.
"Uh …"
Fenghao was taken aback. He wasn't pleasantly surprised by this form of address, he just felt very surprised.
He had heard many legends about the Supremes from Elder Fen. Indeed, every Supremes in the ancient times had always been invincible in the world. Every one of them had suppressed an entire generation and were supreme existences.
"Little fella, you don't seem too happy about it."
The old man teased when he saw his expression.
"No."
Fenghao shook his head as a bitter smile appeared on his face.
It was not a good title. He could imagine that many geniuses and monstrous geniuses of the younger generation would provoke him if word got out.
For Fenghao, who liked to live a peaceful life, this was a troublesome matter. Moreover, what he was most afraid of was that someone would use some underhanded means to make a move on his family.
From the expression on his face, the old man could not see the slightest bit of falsehood. Immediately, the old man understood that he was not a person who cared about fame and fortune.
On the other hand, Dongfang Zheng didn't say anything. He only smiled as he quietly watched the two of them and listened to their conversation.
"I'm still curious, young man. What's your dream?"
After muttering to himself for a while, the old man finally revealed his intentions.
This was what he cared about the most, what he was most curious about. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here personally.
"My dream …"
Feng Hao's expression slowly turned serious as he said, "I can protect my loved ones from being bullied by outsiders."
This was indeed his ultimate goal all along. Everything he had done was for this goal.
Living in a world where only the strong were respected, there were many things that he didn't have a choice in. External factors were forcing him, and he could only keep moving forward.
This simple sentence caused the room to fall into silence.
If this was really Feng Hao's dream and goal, then the old man and Dongfang Zheng could only imagine what he had experienced to be able to achieve what he had today.
Therefore, the two of them had a heavy expression on their faces.
Perhaps many people's dreams and goals were very simple at the beginning. They just wanted to live a peaceful life. However, this world did not allow them to live a peaceful life. This caused many people who were originally pure and kind to become unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals.
Human nature is good.
These were the words left behind by the ancient people. Perhaps many people didn't understand and thought that kindness did not exist in this chaotic world. However, the old man knew that everyone was definitely kind from the beginning. It was just that this world was forcing them to abandon the kindness in their hearts. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to survive.
"Sigh …"
Thinking about what he had seen, the old man couldn't help but let out a long sigh. His expression became slightly gloomy.
It was indeed a good thing that such a chaotic world could encourage people to improve themselves. However, under such circumstances, they would abandon their own humanity.
Without humanity, what would be left?
Beasts or demons.
Perhaps, for their own benefits, many people were doing what demons did.
"Could it be that the sages made a mistake?"
A trace of confusion flashed in the old man's eyes.
With external threats still present, the sages had created an atmosphere where strength was paramount in order to prevent the atmosphere of martial arts from declining. However, what the sages did not expect was that this atmosphere would turn into a vicious competition.
"Young man, I only hope that you can maintain this dream of yours."
After a long while, the old man finally raised his head and looked straight at Fenghao as he spoke with a cautious expression.
"I will."
Feng Hao's reply was resolute and decisive. His words were powerful.
"That's good."
Hearing these words, the old man's expression softened a little.
He was afraid that Feng Hao would be jealous of everyone in this world. If that happened, Feng Hao, who possessed supreme strength, would definitely become a disaster for this world.
"If you have any problems in the future, you can come and find me directly."
The old man stood up and left one last sentence. Then, he floated away without leaving a trace.
"What a powerful strength."
Feng Hao, who could not sense how the old man left, secretly praised in his heart. A trace of yearning flashed in his eyes.
Dong Fengzheng's face also revealed a trace of joy when he heard the old man's last sentence.
The weight of the old man's words could not be said to be light. It could be said that even if the Human Clan was forced to a dead end, with this promise, the Human Clan would be able to get through it peacefully.
"Feng Hao, since things have developed to this point, shouldn't you also consider the position of the Imperial Mansion Master?" Dong Fengzheng asked with a face full of expectation.
In order to become the Imperial Mansion Master, one must possess the Phantom Martial Body. The others could only be called the person in charge at most.
"This …"
Feng Hao scratched his head and his face immediately turned bitter.
He hoped to spend more time with his family. If he became the Palace Master of the Mortal Emperor Palace, wouldn't he have to focus on the Mortal Emperor Palace in the future?
"Don't worry, I will take care of the daily trifles. However, if something big happens, I will need you to take care of it."
Dong Fengzheng naturally knew what this fellow was planning. He sighed in his heart. God knows how many people yearned for this position, but this fellow did not even want it. How infuriating.
"Hehe, then it's fine."
