Furthermore... Lin Shao, the forr Wutong Military Commander whom he once intimidated, later beca the Prefecture Venerable!
These nas,
he is not unfamiliar with!
And evidently,
the ’Nirvana Seekers’ erging from Black Mountain...
clearly, are not limited to just those six.
"Do they know the current state of Wutong Prefecture?" Jixia was just about to inquire.
At this mont,
a junior clerk suddenly ca to report from outside, with a slight sweat on his forehead:
"Reporting to you, sir, there are several Primordial Pill experts here to visit!"
Primordial Pill Martial Artists.
Facing a Seventh-Grade Guardian of a city, being announced in such a manner actually is quite courteous.
And this sudden interruption cut off the conversation between Chen Zhao and Jixia.
The two exchanged a look, and Chen Zhao spoke up first:
"Please invite the esteed guests in!"
After saying that, he gave Jixia a look suggesting he should remain low-key, which Jixia naturally understood.
Jixia didn’t want... or rather, if everything was as he suspected, then now, he should remain ’in the shadows.’
Therefore, he wanted to observe what these ’Nirvana Corpses’ and potentially appearing ’Nirvana Kin’... truly were about.
At this critical point,
he must not expose that he truly is Song Chai Xin.
And Chen Zhao is a smart man.
Having been the Guardian for so many years, he understood Jixia’s aning with just a glance, and completed the transformation of their roles.
From this mont on, Jixia was the junior clerk by his side, no longer ’Mr. Ji.’
And he, was the legitimate Black Mountain City Guardian, a Seventh-Grade Grand Imperial Decree Officer.
Any issue that arose would naturally be his to bear.
Leaning on his Golden Iron Walking Stick, he stood up,
and soon, clad in Demon-Hunting Robes and wielding the Dragon Spine Sword, the Martial Artist, along with the dignified ’Wutong Prefecture Venerable’ Lin Shao, this group of unexpected guests, confidently entered the Guardian Mansion.
"This humble servant, Black Mountain Guardian, pays respects to the ’Wutong Prefecture Venerable’!"
He bowed to Lin Shao, and Chen Zhao then intended to invite him to a seat of honor, but Lin Shao frowned and waved his hand, declining:
"Now is not the ti for such discussions."
"I have heard that it has been sixty years, and even the Wutong Prefecture Venerables have changed three tis?"
"Moreover, the Wutong Prefecture has actually been invaded by demons?"
"What exactly is the current Prefecture Venerable of Wutong doing!"
"And where are the Fourth Step Experts from the Governnt and Jianghu?"
Standing silently behind Chen Zhao, Jixia listened and observed, just as he expected.
In his eyes, these Primordial Pill Martial Artists, he had once encountered them, especially Lin Shao, whose appearance was almost a carbon copy of before!
Even if their closest kin ca to identify any discrepancies...
It likely wouldn’t be that simple.
In an instant, the veins on Jixia’s forehead bulged, and thinking that he might have also spawned a duplicate body from his ’flesh,’ he couldn’t help but get a headache.
At this mont, Chen Zhao continued to speak respectfully, explaining everything in detail to the group while secretly observing their expressions.
When he saw their faces displaying both aversion towards demons and a strong sense of belonging to their sect and position...
He couldn’t help but hesitate greatly.
Could it be,
that these Primordial Pill Martial Artists were truly locked in the Celestial Abyss, but the people themselves are still the sa as they were back then?
"Hmph, the demons are rampant and audacious, but when the many princes and nobles of our Great Zhao arrive, they will surely expel them to the northwest, never daring to set foot in Baoping again!"
He gave a cold snort, and Lin Shao looked at Chen Zhao, not noticing Jixia standing slightly with his head down beside him, and continued speaking on his own:
"However, you don’t need to worry."
"Since we woke from the ’coffin,’ although our mories and experiences from back then are vague."
"But one thing is crystal clear: besides the Primordial Pill Martial Artists, there are also Zhenren Realm experts dormant among us!"
"As long as they wake up,"
"Pacifying Wutong and expelling the demons will be as easy as turning a hand!"
"This Prefecture Venerable just heard from within the Guardian Mansion that there is a Zhenren Realm expert raising a flag and recruiting Martial Artists to march on Wutong and pacify the Prefecture City?"
"Coincidentally, sixty years ago, I was the Wutong Prefecture Venerable and served as the Military Commander for decades, so in this mont of crisis, I should naturally take the lead!"
These words suddenly sparked agreent among those around him:
"Indeed, indeed!"
"Wutong Prefecture is our place of residence, a place of renown, how could we let demons run unchecked!"
"It’s said there are still True Masters in Black Mountain, soon to awaken!"
"Even if they weren’t there, without that newly breakthrough True Master who raised the flag!"
"We would all still dare to sacrifice and fight against the Xuanqing Demon Monarch, you must know, we have awakened with a body full of ’Divine Techniques,’ even if a True Master..."
"Even if a handful of Nirvana Seekers act together, we might yet be able to cross the vast realm and slay him!"
"Lord Lin, let’s go!"
"To Zither Sword Mountain, to fight for Wutong Prefecture together!"
In an instant, the Guardian Mansion was filled with loud voices, these Primordial Pill experts were each filled with righteous indignation, appearing ’eager to act.’
And even True Masters, lay dormant within!
Jixia lowered his head, his eyes narrowing.
What they spoke of...
Wasn’t that the three forr Dragon-slaying Marquises!
Since all three of them could revive, then what about Song Chai Xin?
Standing in front, Chen Zhao keenly sensed the emotional fluctuation in Jixia and his own heart trembled slightly, feeling that these ’Nirvana Seekers’ seed to be in an unusual state, so he spoke on behalf of him, cautiously inquiring:
