632: Existence is its own justification; that's why I like these worldly things.

After Shen Tianxing left, he headed straight for Storm City.

Shen Tianxing didn't pay attention to what people like Yuan Dao were thinking.

After all, he couldn't control what others thought.

The Boundary Domain was already in his hands; the main goal of this trip had been achieved.

There was nothing to be dissatisfied with.

At his current Realm, returning to Storm City was just a matter of a short time.

He would be back in the city soon.

At this moment, in Storm City, two people were waiting for him.

In a private room by the window on the second floor of the Fengyun Inn.

Li Tongshen was engrossed in eating, while Yaochi, sitting opposite him, simply gazed out the window.

Inside and outside Storm City were two extremes; inside the city, it was calm and peaceful, and all the Cultivators lived the lives they desired.

Outside Storm City, however, fierce winds raged, presenting a scene of human misery.

Yaochi was not visiting Storm City for the first time; she was quite familiar with everything here.

However, in the past, she had come for training and had never stayed here for long.

But this time was different; she had come with a purpose, because the person she most wanted to see would appear here.

“Alas...”

Yaochi sighed softly, withdrew her gaze, and looked at Li Tongshen opposite her.

“You look like you haven't eaten in hundreds of years; isn't that a bit too exaggerated?”

Cultivators generally didn't care much about eating; they were accustomed to a life of absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

It was rare to see someone like Li Tongshen feasting on worldly food with such gusto.

Although Yaochi herself had once been like him.

Li Tongshen chuckled upon hearing this and said, “Great Master, actually, it's just that you're not used to it. Although human food is very common, it has a unique flavor.”

“Most importantly, have you noticed a peculiar thing about Storm City? They have everything here, even this worldly food is exquisitely prepared. What does that signify?”

Yaochi paused at his words. “What does it signify?”

Li Tongshen grinned, put down his chopsticks unhurriedly, and said, “It signifies demand!”

“Someone once told me that demand exists for both ordinary humans and Cultivators like us.”

“So, existence is reasonable. That's why I like these worldly things.”

The person who said these words was actually Shen Tianxing!

Yaochi was startled by this; she hadn't thought of that point.

However, she could feel that Li Tongshen's words were sincere.

Because Yaochi herself had experienced it before; she deeply empathized.

Shaking her head slightly, Yaochi suddenly asked, “You said Big Brother Shen Tianxing is here. When will he return?”

Although Yaochi had only recently arrived in Storm City, her longing made her unwilling to wait a moment longer; she yearned to see that figure who haunted her dreams again.

In this world, there were not many people who could make her emerge from seclusion.

Upon hearing this, Li Tongshen quickly said with a serious expression, “Senior Sister, Young Master contacted me the other day. He will return to Storm City very soon.”

This was not Li Tongshen messing with her.

Not many people knew about his contact with Shen Tianxing, and it was indeed Shen Tianxing who had notified him, which was how he knew Shen Tianxing was coming back soon.

Yaochi nodded slightly and did not continue to ask.

At this moment, in the hall on the second floor, the voices of a group of Cultivators drifted over.

“Have you heard? I heard an extraordinary Forbidden Ground appeared in Storm City?”

“Forbidden Ground? I haven't heard of it. Where did a Forbidden Ground appear? If there really was a Forbidden Ground, wouldn't the experts from those major powers have appeared long ago?”

“Brother, you don't know. Recently, there's been a widespread rumor in Storm City that the Three Lives Sect and the Shattering Sect jointly found a Secret Realm. It's rumored to be a Secret Realm left behind by a great powerhouse. Cultivators from both Sects have already gone there, so these things are probably true.”

“What? A Forbidden Ground really appeared?”

“That's right, I heard about this too. And it's not just Disciples from the Shattering Sect and the Three Lives Sect; I heard it also attracted experts from several major powers in Youzhou and Lingzhou. I heard they had a big fight this time.”

“Speaking of that, I remember now. Yuan Fei, the Saint of the Shattering Sect, seemed to have suddenly returned to Storm City a few days ago, precisely to call for reinforcements!”

“I heard he sought out a young man, but I didn't see any experts from the Shattering Sect or the Three Lives Sect.”

“That's strange. Yuan Fei didn't seek out experts from their respective Sects, but suddenly found a young man to help. Does this young man have something special about him?”

“No one knows about that.”

In the hall, the voices of these Cultivators were very loud, making them hard to ignore.

Li Tongshen and Yaochi, sitting in their private room, both heard them.

Li Tongshen whispered, “Senior Sister, it seems the young man they're talking about is undoubtedly Young Master.”

Li Tongshen was very curious, how did Young Master come to know this Saint of the Shattering Sect?

What made him somewhat exasperated was that Young Master really knew how to find trouble; no matter where he went, he would encounter some issues.

Of course, he wasn't at all worried that Shen Tianxing would have any problems, as Shen Tianxing's strength was very formidable!

Even though they hadn't seen each other for over a year, Li Tongshen still had no doubts about Shen Tianxing's strength!

Even if he had Cultivated in the Li Clan for over a year, he probably couldn't catch up to Young Master's growth rate.

Yaochi nodded gently, “It seems Big Brother Shen has already entered and successfully exited the Secret Realm.”

Having not seen Shen Tianxing for over a year, Yaochi didn't know what Realm he had reached now.

The last time they met, Shen Tianxing was at the Immortal Realm Peak. Now that they were meeting again, he was probably already at the Half-step Heaven and Earth King Realm!

She had a deep appreciation for Shen Tianxing's talent, which far surpassed her own.

The two did not continue to speak much. Since they already knew Shen Tianxing's whereabouts, Yaochi would naturally continue to wait.

At the same time.

In a private room on this second floor, an old man with white hair and beard silently held a wine cup.

Bang!

A crisp sound rang out, and the wine cup in the old man's hand shattered.

This startled the young man sitting opposite him quite a bit.

“Master...”

The young man cautiously called out softly.

He, of course, knew what his Master was thinking.

For the old man, the name Shen Tianxing was someone who had to be eliminated!

“He finally has news. It wasn't in vain that this old man searched for him here for so long!”

This old man was none other than Wang Jin, the Third Protector of the Refining Demon Sect!

Why had Wang Jin come? Of course, it was for the death of his grandson, Wang Chen!

Wang Chen died at Shen Tianxing's hands, so Wang Jin certainly had to seek an explanation for Wang Chen.
