After being stunned for a while, Chen Yuguang came to his senses and crawled towards the sky, shouting in fear and trepidation, "Ancestor, save me! Ancestor, save me!"
"You disgraceful thing, scram to the side."
Seeing Chen Yuguang in such a state, the Chen Clan's ancestor couldn't bear it anymore. He waved his hand and threw Chen Yuguang a few streets away, then walked out of the void himself.
The white-haired Chen Clan's ancestor's gaze fell on Heavenly Phoenix Princess, but he didn't confront her as everyone expected. Instead, he cupped his hands and said apologetically, "This old man didn't discipline him properly. I hope you won't take it to heart."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Even Lin Tian and the others couldn't help but reveal surprised expressions.
No one had expected the Sage Plane great ancestor of the Chen Clan to actually apologize.
It was really unexpected.
Chen Yuguang, who had just gotten up and ran over to complain, said anxiously, "Ancestor, they even killed Second Grandpa. Why are you apologizing to them?"
In Chen Yuguang's mind, his ancestor should kill Lin Tian and the others to avenge the punishment elder of the Chen Clan.
Unfortunately, no one could guess what the Chen Clan's ancestor was thinking.
Hearing Chen Yuguang's words, the Chen Clan's ancestor immediately scolded him, "Noisy! How can a little bastard like you interrupt when this old man is speaking?"
Then, he waved his sleeve again and Chen Yuguang was sent flying again.
After that, the Chen Clan's ancestor looked at Heavenly Phoenix Princess, Lin Tian and the others and cupped his hands, saying, "Please don't blame him. This brat is used to being domineering in my Chen Clan. When we return, I will definitely call him father and discipline him well. If you have time, you can come back with me. This old man will definitely ask someone to serve you good tea and wine. I will also apologize to you on behalf of that little bastard."
Hearing this, everyone was even more incredulous. They looked at the Chen Clan's ancestor in disbelief, then at Lin Tian and the others. They were suddenly extremely curious about the background of Lin Tian and the others.
After all, someone who could make a Sage apologize in such a humble manner was definitely not simple.
Actually, Lin Tian also did not know what medicine the Chen Family's ancestor was selling in his gourd.
Logically speaking, even if Heavenly Phoenix Princess had displayed extraordinary strength, the Chen forefather shouldn't have acted in such a manner.
However, Lin Tian didn't think too much about it. He waved his hand and said disapprovingly, "There's no need to apologize. We still have matters to attend to, so we won't be going to your residence to nag you."
Lin Tian glanced at Princess Heavenly Phoenix. He was about to bring them away from Northern Wind City to find another place to stay.
However, before Lin Tian could even take a single step forward, the Chen family's patriarch spoke again.
"Fellow Daoists, are you here in Northern Wind City for the Ancient Desert City?"
When he heard this, Lin Tian could not help but stop moving. He looked at the Chen Clan Ancestor in astonishment and said in shock, "The Ancient Desert City is about to appear?"
"Fellow Daoist, you don't know?"
The Chen family's patriarch looked at Lin Tian in surprise. When he saw that the latter's expression did not seem to be fake, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He then said, "Yes, actually this old man only received the news a few days ago. However, I didn't have time to find you guys before I met you. I don't know if this is fate."
The Chen family's patriarch couldn't help but laugh.
From the looks of it, those who didn't know better would think that he and Lin Tian were old friends who hit it off at first sight.
However, Lin Tian didn't listen to the Chen family's patriarch at all. His mind was filled with information about the Ancient Desert City.
It wasn't wrong to call it a city, but it was an independent existence that wouldn't normally appear.
It was similar to a mystic realm.
On average, it would appear once every million years. It was one of the ancient cities left behind by the Heavenly Court in the prehistoric era. It had a long history and was filled with all kinds of precious treasures.
There were even people who had obtained things like Connate Spiritual Treasures from it.
It was a famous treasure trove in the Great Wilderness.
Every time it opened, it would attract countless experts, who would rush in and loot everything.
However, no matter how much one looted, the blessed land would always give birth to all kinds of treasures after a million years.
Therefore, no matter how many times the Ancient Desert City was opened, its popularity in the world of immortals didn't diminish.
Lin Tian had naturally heard of its famous name.
It could even be said that the two were closely related.
"I didn't expect to see this place appear on this trip. Tsk tsk, how lucky."
Lin Tian couldn't help but glance at Princess Heavenly Phoenix. Although he didn't care for most of the things in the Ancient Desert City, they were all urgent necessities for a silly girl like Princess Heavenly Phoenix.
They could help her quickly improve her cultivation.
"Fellow Daoist, what are you talking about?" The Chen family's patriarch looked puzzled when he saw Lin Tian mumbling something.
Lin Tian came back to his senses when he heard the patriarch's voice. He quickly waved his hand. "It's nothing. I was just thinking about the Ancient Desert City and got distracted."
"I see …."
The Chen family's ancestor did not doubt him and nodded his head in understanding. Then, he looked at Lin Tian and sighed, "This ancient city is about to open. I see that fellow cultivator also has some understanding of this ancient city. Obviously, fellow cultivator should also know that this ancient city is not only filled with opportunities, but also countless dangers. After all, it has been nurtured for millions of years. Who knows what is inside?"
At this point, the Chen family's ancestor warmly extended an invitation, "Today, I feel like I've known you all for a long time. Although there are some misunderstandings between us, it doesn't matter. Why don't you all come with me to explore this ancient city? With the few of us together, we'll be able to protect ourselves when facing unknown dangers, right?"
"There's no need for that. We're used to being alone."
Unfortunately, Lin Tian did not even think about it before rejecting him.
He wasn't familiar with the Chen family's patriarch, and there was a conflict between them. It was impossible for them to truly trust each other.
Even if there wasn't a conflict, Lin Tian wouldn't have teamed up with him.
After all, Lin Tian wasn't a kind person who was willing to take anyone with him. Although the Ancient Desert City wasn't good enough for Lin Tian, there were still many dangers inside.
There were opportunities for people to become Emperors.
Naturally, the risks that came with such an opportunity would not be low.
Sages looked very powerful, but in reality, they were nothing in the Ancient Desert City.
They might die as soon as they entered.
After all, it was a place left behind by the Heavenly Court in the Desolate Era. It was once part of the Heavenly Court, and there were too many strange things inside.
Sages wouldn't be able to gain any benefits inside.
