Any peer present couldn’t help but feel that that human was likely to fall into a situation where losses outweighed gains.

“Does Fellow Daoist know the whereabouts and name of that human expert?” the middle-aged man from the Golden Crow Clan asked slowly.

“I do not know that person’s exact whereabouts either,” Zhu You replied. “I only heard that recently, near the birthplace of a quasi-emperor’s opportunity, he made a move once before disappearing without a trace. As for his name, if I remember correctly.Jt should be Su Chen!”

Upon hearing the last two words, the expression of the Golden Crow Clan’s middle-aged man immediately changed to one of dread. Just now, the faces and names of several formidable human experts had flashed across his mind. There were many Great Saint Realm human powerhouses in the East Barrens, and he had dealt with quite a few. He had thought that the human appearing in the Chaotic Sea Star Region might be one of those he knew.

Never did he expect that this human expert would actually be Su Chen! This was far too unbelievable. One had to understand – in his impression, Su Chen had only just become a saint recently! How could he have transformed into a Great Saint Realm powerhouse so quickly? Not only had he reached the Great Saint Realm, but he had also managed to fight two veteran Great Saint Realm experts at once, killing them both. If this news spread, who would dare believe it?

“It seems Fellow Daoist is familiar with this person…” Zhu You peered deeply at the Golden Crow Clan’s middle-aged man. “Do you know each other?”

“I do,” the man replied heavily with a nod. “In the mere hundred years this person has cultivated, his achievements today are inconceivable. Many experts in the East Barrens suspect he might be the reincarnation of some ancient and mighty figure. It is the only way to explain his meteoric rise to power in such little time. This person…he is terrifying indeed!”

Hearing the Golden Crow Clan member’s words, shock rippled through the surrounding living beings. Although these ancient royal lineages enjoyed innate advantages, they still fell short when compared to some human prodigies. And now, with the sudden appearance of Su Chen – potentially the reincarnation of an ancient mighty one – amidst an age already bursting with dragon-like geniuses, immense pressure weighed on all present. After all, if Su Chen truly was who they guessed, no one knew just how powerful his original form had been nor how many contingencies he had left behind.contemporary romance

“No matter what, Su Chen cannot remain alive! Don’t forget the Ancient Pact, everyone!” someone shouted from the crowd, instantly spurring murmurs of agreement. Allowing such a prodigy to continue existing would pose a massive threat to the ancient myriad races. Perhaps he alone could undermine their ancient pact! They had to eradicate this existence – for the greater good of the myriad races and their pact itself!

The mention of the Ancient Pact sent chills through many. As all eyes turned toward the source of the shout, they beheld a young man dressed in a white robe. The Daoist charm flowed over his body, and his three thousand strands of hair sparkled with a starry brilliance. His aura was extraordinary. The energy he faintly exuded made him impossible to ignore, as if he had become the very center of this world. Everyone sized him up but to no avail, for he seemed veiled in the fog that defied penetration.

No one felt surprised at this outcome; although bound by the Ancient Pact, distrust ran deeply between their races. Only Su Chen’s threat had brought temporary unity. Without him, all present could easily turn on one other.

“Are you a fellow Daoist of the White Jade Divine Elephant Clan?” the white-haired elder who had previously spoken asked as he approached the white-robed youth. His gaze shifted between the young man and the rather portly middle-aged figure behind him. While the former’s strength proved impressive even to him, the latter’s seemed quite ordinary – merely at the late stage of the Saint Realm. In this place, the middle-aged man counted only as a junior. Had the white-robed youth not accompanied him, he likely could not have come at all.

Thus, everyone else had instantly seen through the plump man’s original race with but a passing glance.

The white-robed young man did not reply; he merely slanted his eyes back at the middle-aged man behind him. With that one look, the latter shuddered as though just remembering himself. He hastily stepped forward, bowed to the crowd, and said in a quavering voice, “Greetings seniors, 1 am Chen Fan. To be frank, this is the ancestor of our White Jade Divine Elephant Clan…Chen Su! He has just emerged from seclusion upon hearing about the Chaotic Sea Star Region, so he came to join in the excitement.”

“Chen Su?” This name had brought frowns all around, coming so soon after Su Chen’s. Something about the sequence seemed off. But no one dwelled on it; with so many people in the world, identical and even reversed names were common enough.

“So it is Fellow Daoist Chen Su! I have long admired your great name!” someone piped up, though his smile seemed less than genuine. After all, they had only just heard of Chen Su today. Still, his words served their purpose in relaxing tensions. Since someone claimed to have admired Chen Su for ages, both sides were likely familiar. Chen Su must be their ally. Thus, gazes turning his way softened..
