Luu Chen accompanied Li Chen, walking in the marketplace.
Of course, as the Market Master, Luu Chen concealed his true appearance, otherwise, his presence would inevitably cause quite a commotion.
Right now, Luu Chen can be considered as one of those legendary figures; once he appears, it would likely lead to another gathering.
Walking through the marketplace, Li Chen couldn’t help but smile: "It seems your Zizhao Market City has also kept up with the tis. There are quite a few things that weren’t here before."
"It’s all because Lord Zizhao has not forgotten his origins and often looks after us." Luu Chen laughed dryly from the side. Nowadays, Zizhao Market City has indeed expanded both in goods and territory significantly.
Zizhao’s status certainly isn’t what it used to be. Since leaving Zizhao Market City, he has fully joined the Palace of the Nether King, now known as the Nether King Group, and holds a prominent position.
As a senior figure in the Nether King Group, Zizhao is himself a formidable Earth-level Expert. Now, with a single word, the entire Martial Artist World could shudder.
However, due to Zizhao’s breakthrough in cultivation, he hasn’t revealed himself to the public for a long ti and has started closed-door cultivating as an elder.
At their realm, there’s not much left for them to pursue.
Fa, they are already famous all over the world; in benefits, whether as a top-level powerhouse or as senior figures in the Nether King Group, they can say they have whatever they want. So, there’s really not much left to pursue; perhaps only advancing further in cultivation, following those stronger who have already ascended, stepping into the world of true strong figures.
"After being away for so many years, this world has indeed changed quite a bit." Li Chen couldn’t help but reflect.
"After the world transford, the spiritual energy beca denser and more suited for cultivation; martial artists don’t need to hide in deep mountains and old forests like before. Over the years, the number of martial artists has increased significantly, and a few genius figures have erged." Luu Chen said from the side.
"Genius figures?" Li Chen smiled without pursuing this topic further.
Luu Chen realized Li Chen didn’t want to continue the conversation, so he didn’t speak further and quietly accompanied Li Chen.
Although he is now the high-ranking Market Master of Zizhao Market City and a renowned figure in the Martial Artist World, being able to accompany this gentleman is a great honor to many.
Now, despite many years having passed, Li Chen’s fa has not diminished but instead is as radiant as the mid-heaven.
If Li Chen was an unforgettable legend in the eyes of people back then, now he is already a true myth in countless martial artists’ eyes.
Compared to today’s environnt, Li Chen started in the depleted environnt before the great transformation, eventually rising step by step, reaching the peak of martial arts, and beca renowned as the first to ascend in countless years.
Although before Li Chen, there were many powerful figures rumored to have ascended, none were confird.
But Li Chen was different; he ascended in front of countless people and is the first verifiable transcendent.
"Sir, we’re about to leave the marketplace." Seeing Li Chen approaching the boundary of the Fangshi Barrier and continuing forward, Luu Chen couldn’t help but remind him.
"I know," Li Chen casually said, "I’m just planning to walk around a bit and solve so minor matters."
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Luu Chen dared not say more, quietly following behind Li Chen.
Soon, Li Chen, accompanied by Luu Chen, walked out of the marketplace barrier.
Suddenly, Li Chen pointed at a spot: "Do you rember when I first ca to your marketplace, you and Liang Qi intercepted at this place."
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Luu Chen’s face imdiately beca awkward: "Back then we were unaware..."
"It’s nothing, just a minor issue; just chatting casually. The past is already in the past." Li Chen waved his hand with a smile.
Luu Chen nodded, his gaze sowhat reflective.
Years ago, Li Chen was just a junior martial artist who had just reached the Profound Level. When he fled in distress from Zizhao Market City, they both intercepted him outside Zizhao Market City. Yet, even then, Li Chen defeated their joint efforts, and it was only Zizhao intervening that saved their lives; otherwise, they would have been slain by Li Chen back then.
Thinking about it now, it seems almost like a lifeti ago.
At this mont, Luu Chen intensely admired Zizhao’s wisdom from back then. Despite being an enemy of Li Chen, Zizhao quickly changed positions and firmly stood by Li Chen’s side.
Initially, they did not understand Zizhao’s approach and even proposed several dissenting opinions, but ultimately they were overridden by Zizhao.
Yet the series of events that happened subsequently made them imnsely respect Zizhao’s wisdom.
No one could have anticipated that Li Chen would achieve such heights later.
At this mont, Li Chen’s eyes suddenly brightened: "Here they co."
"Here they co?" Luu Chen was startled, then his expression turned ominous, as he soon understood what Li Chen ant by ’here they co.’
A group appeared in the forest, swiftly heading towards Li Chen.
"Kid, we finally found you." A man in a suit walked out slowly, looking at Li Chen with a bizarre smile: "I must say, you are quite good at running. You managed to flee to such desolate mountains!"
"The person beside him seems different." At this mont, soone sharp-eyed noticed that the person beside Li Chen was no longer Old Chen, couldn’t help but remind.
"Isn’t being different better? We certainly don’t want to offend the Nether King Group easily, but if it’s others... Who’s left that we, Fang Yuan, can’t afford to offend?" The suited man sneered: "If you know what’s good for you, that’s best. If not, well, this desolate wilderness wouldn’t mind a few more deaths."
Hearing the suited man’s words, Luu Chen’s expression inevitably turned ominous.
For so many years, while overseeing Zizhao Market City, he demanded face everywhere, regardless of location or people.
For so many years, it was the first ti soone dared speak to him like this!
However, at this mont, as Li Chen did not speak, he didn’t dare say much, only glancing towards Li Chen.
However, at this mont, the corners of Li Chen’s mouth curled into a peculiar smile.
