Chapter 1057: Chu Minhui Arrived
Everyone looked serious at this moment, including Jiang Feifei.
Chu Yun’s uncle was an incredible person. He had become a Major General at a very young age and had command over one of the best special forces in China. He had a high status in the army and was able to shake the Jiang Nan Province by stomping his feet.
People like him and the Tang Beauty were very different from everyone present. It may very well be that not even their fathers or grandparents had never reached their level. The reason why Chu Yun was able to beat Lu Yang and become the top young cultivator in Chu Zhou City was because of his uncle.
“I’m not sure. It seems to be related to the Deity outside of East Mountain. My uncle said they’re looking for someone,” Chu Yun said with arrogance in his eyes.
With such an uncle, how could he not be arrogant?
Jin City, East Mountain?
Everyone was startled.
“Oh, I know. They must be looking for the ‘Golden Deity’ that appeared in Jin City. I’ve seen a video of him. My dad even guessed that he may be a Golden Core Perfected Cultivator,” Xiao Xuan suddenly said with excitement.
“That’s him.” Everyone realized.
Many people had seen that video, but it was soon deleted by the government. And yet, their families could still get some intel about it. Some said the military region of the Jiang Nan Province and the families in Jin City were all anxious at the moment.
“That’s strange. If they’re looking for the Golden Deity, why are they coming to Chu Zhou City?” a woman wondered.
Chu Zhou City didn’t have a high status in the Jiang Nan Province. It used to be strong, but later declined and became ordinary.
Chu Yun frowned and said, “I guess he’s related to Chu Zhou City somehow. There was once an astonishing cultivator in the city before. You should have heard about him when you were little.”
“Are you talking about the Sect Master of the North Qiong Sect?” Xiao Xuan’s eyes brightened.
“Yeah, he was the top cultivator on Earth and the Sect Master of the North Qiong Sect back then. Unfortunately, he went missing decades ago and a lot of people have forgotten about him,” Chu Yun said, “My uncle admired him the most back then. I heard that the ‘Cang Dragon Physical Conditioning Exercise’ they practice now was created by him.”
“Hm, that’s just an old guy. He’s not worth remembering. We’ve already come to a new era, other Grandmasters like Ye Nantian, Huo Zhengtang and Chen Jiuyang have become Connate or Golden Core Cultivators. Even if Chen Beixuan returns, he can only look up to Perfected Cultivator Ye and the others, not to mention the sacred grounds, including the Taichu Temple, the Wuji Arena and the Sun Palace.” Lu Yang snickered and looked at Jiang Feifei.
“Besides, Feifei’s sister Goddess Jiang may now be as powerful as Chen Beixuan was back then.”
The world had changed and a new era had begun.
Humans had never been so confident before. They were evolving a thousand times faster than they used to. Someone could become a Connate Cultivator or a Golden Core Cultivator every year or even every month.
The names that used to be famous around the world, like Lin Shuming, Ye Qincang and Chen Beixuan, had already been forgotten. Even if people remembered them, they only smiled in disdain when they heard those names.
Xiao Xuan raised her chin and said proudly, “For sure! Sister Churan is a disciple of the Taichu Temple’s Master. She’s even cultivating to enter the Golden Core Level now. She’ll soon become the top Overlord in the world.”
The others were in awe.
The Taichu Temple!
That was the top cultivation sacred ground in the world. People were able to guess that they definitely had more than one Golden Core Cultivator in their ranks, from the respectful attitude of the other countries and sects towards them. They might even have Deities from other planets. Jiang Churan was obviously superior thanks to being a disciple of the Taichu Temple’s Master, .
“Uncle Minhui is also powerful. He’s already a Major General and will definitely become a core member of the army in five years. Lu Yang’s great grandpa was also a famous Qi Refinement Master and is now a Connate Cultivator, and Xiao Xuan’s father is the youngest Divine Sea Cultivator in Chu Zhou City,” Jiang Feifei said with a smile.
She was capable and fair with everyone, so the younger generation in Chu Zhou City looked up to her.
“No, no, not even my uncle can compare to your Sister Churan. I only think that Beauty Tang’s father is able to fight with her.” Chu Yun shook his head and waved his hand.
A few people smiled and discussed.
The rest of the people who didn’t cultivate stood on the outside, looking at those lofty people enviously.
Chu Minhui, Jiang Churan and Beauty Tang were like dragons to them. Young famous cultivators in Chu Zhou City and Jiang Bei like Jiang Feifei, Chu Yun and Lu Yang were the only ones they saw eye to eye, but were also bright and fierce to them.
“I’m so jealous of them!” Yan Junze said.
Chen Fan sipped the wine and remained silent.
Chu Minhui, Jiang Churan… Those names sent him back decades past when he first went back to Chu Zhou City. Right then, he had conquered Planet Tianhuang, and was about to fight with the Divine Princes from the Star Ocean; to top it off, he would soon become a Nascent Soul Cultivator. However, those people were still trapped in this small planet, busy dominating China. Life was so unpredictable.
After finishing dinner, someone suggested going to the arena downstairs. Some among the group immediately agreed.
In that era, the most popular sport wasn’t “League of Legends,” “Honor of Kings,” soccer or basketball, but battling! Basically, every clubhouse and shopping mall had a fighting ring reinforced with some special metals. People would even ask an Array Master to form small-scale arrays underneath to prevent the ring from being destroyed.
Once Yan Junze heard they were going to fight, he instantly became serious.
“Are you going?” Chen Fan glanced at him.
“Of course! I’ll never get into this circle if I don’t; nobody would befriend me,” Yan Junze said.
When they entered the arena, Chen Fan finally understood why Yan Junze looked like that.
Lu Yang and Chu Yun didn’t only fight with their peers, they also spent time helping ordinary people who never cultivated. In recent days, even though some people didn’t cultivate, they would still practice a few body arts or different forms of Tai Chi. Yan Junze had quite the large figure, but he had only practiced Monkey Boxing; he was immediately knocked down.
While Chen Fan was watching him cry.
Lu Yang pointed at him and said, “Brother, do you want to come up here?”
Jiang Feifei frowned and said, “Lu Yang, Chen Fan isn’t a Qi Refinement Cultivator and has never cultivated before. Leave him alone.” She had defeated a few female cultivators just then and had even fought with Chu Yun. People were cheering for her.
“It’s okay. I won’t use any True Qi nor Dharma Spells. I just want to teach him something. I would never hurt him,” Lu Yang said with a gentle smile.
However, Jiang Feifei frowned. She felt like he was up to no good.
“Ask him to go, Sister Feifei. You can’t keep protecting him. He’s an adult already, but has never cultivated before. This is a good opportunity for Lu Yang to teach him something.”
The others also agreed.
Jiang Feifei glanced at Chen Fan.
On one side were her friends, while on the other was a guest her auntie cared about. She had no idea what to do. Besides, she didn’t think Lu Yang would hurt Chen Fan in front of so many people, either.
“Brother, come on. It’ll be fine,” Lu Yang said with a beaming smile, making people think he was friendly.
“You want to fight with me?” Chen Fan was shocked, as if he had heard the most unbelievable thing in the world.
“Right, don’t worry. I promise I won’t use any Dharma Spells. I’m only going to use the twenty-four forms of Tai Chi. It’s for old people and kids. I guess you’ve practiced it before.” Lu Yang pretended to be nice.
“Are you sure? What if I get injured?” Chen Fan asked.
“Don’t worry. I promise I won’t hurt you,” Lu Yang said.
“No, thanks.”
Chen Fan shook his head.
He was the North Mystic Celestial Lord and he really couldn’t accept fighting with a peak-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Besides, he was worried that he would accidentally kill Lu Yang. He might even be able to kill a thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators with one move.
“It’s all right. Come on,” Lu Yang said again.
But Chen Fan only shook his head.
In the end, people around them began to speak.
A female cultivator frowned and said, “Feifei, your friend is too unwise. Lu Yang offered to teach him something from the Lu family, but he keeps refusing to go on stage.”
“That’s right, Sister Feifei. This guy is a chicken. Lu Yang has already promised he wouldn’t hurt him, but he still rejected the offer,” Xiao Xuan also said.
Many people’s eyes were full of disdain.
In the current era, people looked up to those heros and Overlords. Even if they wouldn’t be able to defeat them, they would still go up the stage. There weren’t many people who would refuse to fight with them like Chen Fan did. Although no one said anything, they had silently regarded Chen Fan as someone they wouldn’t get in touch with.
The woman in the Chinese dress looked at Chen Fan and sighed. “This kid has no idea that he’ll never be a member of the upper-class social circle in Chu Zhou City because of this.”
But nobody would tell Chen Fan about those things.
In the end, even Lu Yang shook his head and ignored Chen Fan. This time, Chen Fan was left alone and only Yan Junze would talk to him.
“Brother, you… Ah.”
Even Yan Junze was speechless.
Chen Fan only smiled.
Meanwhile.
A man and a woman got off a luxurious car near the Tian Shen Building’s entrance.
The man was around thirty years old and was wearing a military uniform. He was walking as fiercely as a tiger. He appeared to have the Major General rank. As for the woman, she was fair-skinned and wore sunglasses at the moment. There was a precious jade bracelet on her hand, which was obviously a Dharma Artifact. All the people nearby were attracted the moment they showed up.
The CEO of the Tian Shen Corporation immediately approached them to offer his greetings.
Chu Minhui and Beauty Tang had arrived!
