179: Go, go and bring your young master home.
At the same time.
Eastern Profound City, Shen Family Sumeru Realm.
On a serene green mountain, Shen Min was taking a stroll when he suddenly felt a connection, sensing a familiar Bloodline-linked aura.
"You brat, you're finally back!" Shen Min looked towards the sky, wondering if he should just go and pick up his brother, but then decided against it.
"You've grown up, and you are, after all, our Young Clan Leader of the Shen Family. It's time for you to make your mark." Shen Min chuckled lightly, as Old Man Tianji had said that Shen Nian's current strength was not weak and he no longer needed constant protection. If it were before, he might have gone without a second thought.
Just like that, he hadn't walked many steps before he muttered to himself, "He's the Young Clan Leader, after all. So many people have come to Eastern Profound City; he needs to make an entrance."
The next second.
Shen Min spoke.
"Shen Yi."
A figure clad in snow-white armor knelt on one knee. This snow armor was different from that of the regular Cangtian Army; an endless cold radiated from it, and Killing Intent flowed around his body.
This person, called Shen Yi, was a stern-faced youth, at most seventeen years old, but the emotionless expression on his face seemed out of place for his age.
This youth was not a Shen Family member. Shen Min had found him seventeen years ago in a village massacred by the Yao Race. He had been taciturn since childhood. After Shen Min sent him to the Cangtian Army, he displayed unparalleled talent, especially in military strategy. He participated in hundreds of guerrilla battles against the Yao Race and never suffered a defeat.
Later, Shen Min transferred him to the Divine Feather Guards, making him their commander.
The three hundred Divine Feather Guards were also all fresh blood, having never pledged allegiance to any king of the Cangtian Army, which was Shen Min's deliberate choice.
After all, those old timers, except for Lin Yuan, were all stubborn.
Because people in the army are different; they only look at military achievements. If your military achievements are amazing, even if you're an ordinary person, they will respect you. If you're a hothouse flower, then even if they wouldn't dare defy orders to obey Shen Nian, they would definitely mess around.
After all, he had forcefully placed Shen Nian in the position of Young Clan Leader, and even a united family like the Shen Family would inevitably face gossip.
It's just that Shen Family members wouldn't do anything shady.
"Go, go bring your Young Lord home."
"Yes," Shen Yi replied respectfully.
At the entrance of the Shen Family Sumeru Realm, a man walked out carrying a large banner, on which the character " god" (Shen) was carved in a vigorous Dragon and Phoenix style. Three hundred Divine Feather Guards, all at Soul Transformation Perfection, rushed out like a long Dragon. Their movements were synchronized, their faces all young. Wherever they passed, space vibrated, and even before they arrived, one could sense the terrifying fluctuations.
At this moment.
Everyone in Eastern Profound City was attracted by the commotion of the Divine Feather Guards. The appearance of the Divine Feather Guards naturally meant that the Young Clan Leader of the Shen Family was already in Eastern Profound.
The Young Lord of the Tuoba Clan was staying in a tavern.
This was a man with a strange appearance, with purple wood hanging from both earlobes. He looked up, and upon seeing the Divine Feather Guards, he didn't hesitate at all, immediately chasing after them.
He wanted to fight Shen Nian to prove himself. Otherwise, who would feel good about being pushed out of their ranking for no reason?
He also wanted everyone to know that he, Tuoba Qiong, was not inferior to anyone!
During this time, he had been building momentum, striving to defeat Shen Nian, and then began to forge his dao palace. The reason for his seriousness was that he knew Shen Nian was definitely not weak. Could those rumors be believed?
How could the Young Clan Leader of the Shen Family be a good-for-nothing? Moreover, Old Man Tianji never ranked people carelessly.
The next second, his figure soared like a Dragon, transforming into a streak of light and departing.
"Is this Younger Brother Nian's Divine Feather Guards? Their foundation is good, just a bit lacking in Killing Intent..." Shen Wudao stood with his hands behind his back in an aerial pavilion, looking down with an indifferent expression.
Then, he glanced at the departing Tuoba Qiong, sneered dismissively, and withdrew his gaze.
Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Still want to fight?"
A big bald man in a green robe walked out, grinning to reveal his white teeth, "Fight what? You can't beat me anyway. I said that when he comes back this time, it's time for a change of position. We're all family, so who takes the spot doesn't matter, but I'm afraid he can't handle the pressure..."
"Do you think I want to? Fighting a bunch of old monsters who have lived for hundreds of thousands of years in the Heavenly Abyss all the time, the pressure is immense!" Shen Ye touched his bald head, sighing helplessly.
He had a pair of eyes as black as night, without whites, with Dao patterns constantly flowing within them, as if meeting his gaze would pull one into an endless dark night.
That was his domain, an ability he possessed since birth.
Furthermore, he possessed the Dark Night Divine Body, which was nearing Major Achievement.
"Fifth on the profound dragon ranking is good, but it's still far from being able to bear this pressure. Let Younger Brother Nian live a peaceful life; we are enough for the bloodshed..." Shen Ye said again, his tone gentle. Then he winked at Shen Wudao, "Don't you think so too?"
Shen Wudao's expression remained as cold as ever; he didn't speak.
"Sigh, always so cold. I said it's been a long time, let's have a drink. Will you drink?"
"Drink."
At the same time.
Tianji Tower.
"This isn't right..." Old Man Tianji looked at the celestial phenomena, utterly bewildered.
At this moment, all the celestial phenomena were changing rapidly, emitting dazzling white light, showing signs of collapse.
"How can this be..."
"Even Dao Integration can be deduced, so why can't I calculate him?" Old Man Tianji did a quick calculation and was stunned.
He had intended to calculate Shen Nian's situation again, as so many days had passed, to see if the kid had returned.
But the result was pure Chaos!
Past and future were gone; he couldn't calculate Shen Nian anymore!
This greatly shocked him.
"Could this kid have obtained some Heaven-Defying treasure...?" Old Man Tianji frowned in thought. After considering it, he decided to make a trip to Eastern Profound.
He needed to figure out what was going on.
Canglan City.
Mu Xiaoxiao frowned upon seeing Ji Bochang's lewd expression, and a bad premonition immediately arose in her heart.
Oh no!
This scoundrel seems to have set his sights on them.
Mu Xiaoxiao was a little worried. After all, she didn't fear Ji Bochang because she had backing, but Shen Nian didn't.
Although he could instantly kill an Early Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, it didn't mean he could contend with the Sun Moon Sect; the difference was simply too vast... While she was thinking, the dishes had already been served.
Jiang Churan started eating directly, completely ignoring the gazes from over there.
However, Wang Yuan's subsequent reaction was beyond Ji Bochang's expectation.
Indeed.
Although a hint of emotion flickered in Wang Yuan's deep eyes, he quickly withdrew his gaze and did not speak domineeringly as Ji Bochang had expected.
After all, he came from an Ancient Desolate Family, and although he was from a branch family, Wang Yuan's status was higher than some main family Disciples.
The reasons, besides his brotherly affection with the Young Master of the Wang Family, were his own Prodigy-level talent!
At twenty-four, he was already at the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation.
He was even younger than Ji Bochang.
Ji Bochang thought for a moment, and it made sense.
He was from an Ancient Desolate Family after all; he must have seen all kinds of beauties and wouldn't be paralyzed by just seeing a woman.
Immediately.
Ji Bochang changed the subject and said, "Brother Wang, are you also here to see our Young Clan Master Shen, who disappeared for six years and has now reappeared?"
