"My Lord, you have returned!" Nurous Dragon Soaring Army armored warriors, with faces full of excitent, quickly surrounded Jiang Pojun.
It was clear that Jiang Pojun held an extraordinary level of respect among these people.
Jiang Pojun looked at these familiar faces, his face breaking into a genuine smile. His gaze slowly swept over each person, silently patting each shoulder lightly, and he said, "I’m back, I have returned!"
Zhou Qing watched this scene, feeling a thousand different emotions.
Ever since their sparring match, Jiang Pojun had often co to chat with him. During this period, Zhou Qing had roughly understood the general situation at the border.
Currently, the Holy Martial Dynasty’s border was defended by nine legions, with the Dragon Soaring Army, to which Jiang Pojun belonged, being one of them.
Moreover, he held the position of Vice General within it.
"Why are they here too?" At this mont, Yan Xiaohu quietly ca up to Zhou Qing’s side and pointed toward the front.
Zhou Qing followed his gaze and saw Xuanyuan Shuo leading a large group of people, smiling broadly as they ca to greet them. Beside him were two familiar faces.
They were none other than the Seventh Prince Xuanyuan Yichen and the Ninth Princess Xuanyuan Muqian.
Zhou Qing suddenly rembered that the last ti they visited the academy, they ntioned that they were training at the border. Then they saw Elder Feng from Great Demon Mountain sneaking in, and followed their grandfather Xuanyuan Shuo into the inland to track him.
Because they were afraid of being detected, they had to stop and also took the opportunity to visit Master Lu at the academy.
Finally seeing old acquaintances, the Second Elder unconsciously inched sideways, only to find that Lu Yuanzhi was doing the sa.
The two exchanged a glance and both lowered their heads.
"Ah, Master Lin, we have finally been looking forward to your arrival!" A cheerful laugh ca from afar as Xuanyuan Shuo strode over.
Lin Daochen stepped forward steadily, raising his hand to salute with a humble and proper deanor.
After all, this person before him was not only a terrifyingly powerful Spirit Severing Realm expert but also the War God defending the border of the Holy Martial Dynasty.
Lin Daochen naturally did not dare to show the slightest negligence.
"Greetings, Prince!" Lin Daochen was the first to speak, after which the people behind him also followed in saluting.
Xuanyuan Shuo quickly reached out and helped Lin Daochen up, displaying his hearty manner: "Master, you’re too courteous. Co, co, co, please co in. Master Su and Master Wu have been waiting for you."
With that, he turned sideways to lead the way, warmly inviting everyone into the hall.
Xuanyuan Yichen and Xuanyuan Muqian, who were following alongside, were curiously looking around. When they saw Zhou Qing and Lu Yaoyao, their eyes lit up with delight and excitent.
Zhou Qing also noticed their gaze and slightly nodded to them, indicating that they could talk later.
Then he respectfully followed behind Lin Daochen.
Not long after, the group arrived at a grand hall.
Inside the hall, two elders were resting and recuperating.
They were the two Level 3 Array Masters who had long been renowned in the Holy Martial Dynasty—Su Lishan and Wu Tiangang.
Su Lishan wore a long robe, exuding an aura of elegance. His appearance seed youthful, and his every move exhibited the deanor of a refined scholar.
Wu Tiangang, on the other hand, was completely different. With silver hair like snow and a bright red nose, he had the look of a perennial drinker.
Beside them, a few disciples were quietly busying themselves.
"Master Su, Master Wu!" Lin Daochen was filled with excitent upon seeing the two elders.
Upon hearing the voice, the two opened their eyes simultaneously, a gleam of surprise flashing across their gazes as they quickly stood up to greet them.
Ti indeed flies. It felt just like yesterday when Lin Daochen sought out these masters through various channels to humbly learn about arrays from them.
Now, after all these years, he had grown to be an Array Master who could interact with them as equals.
"Master Lin, long ti no see!" The two ca forward and exchanged pleasantries with Lin Daochen, their words full of warmth and familiarity.
"We just ca out of the Seven Stars Demon-Binding Array, please forgive any slight neglect."
"No need for such words, it’s Lin who is ashad." Lin Daochen waved his hand quickly, his attitude earnest.
Watching the three masters talk happily, everyone else stood quietly to the side, listening intently, afraid to disturb this rare grandmaster gathering.
Zhou Qing stood among them, his gaze shifting back and forth among the masters, lost in thought.
The Level 3 Array Masters commanded such respect that even the Second Elder was deferential, and even the powerful Xuanyuan Shuo ca to invite them. Their esteed status was evident.
And that young No. 6, already a Level 4 Array Master at such a young age and having just obtained Divine dicine from the forbidden zone, was now in seclusion.
Such a person would be seen as a deity in a Fourth-level Cultivation Country.
It seems that her origins probably lie within that formidable Fifth-level Cultivation Country, as he had guessed.
After a long while, Xuanyuan Shuo signaled that the conversation was almost over, then stepped forward, laughing heartily, his voice booming: "Alright, alright, the food is ready. This prince has specially arranged a banquet to welco Master Lin and everyone. Let’s move to the dining hall!"
...
When everyone arrived at another hall, a rich fragrance imdiately greeted them.
Inside the hall, a plethora of exquisite foods had been laid out, the most striking of which were various spiritual beast ats emitting a radiant glow.
The colors of these ats were enticing, making people’s mouths water just by looking at them.
Yan Xiaohu’s eyes widened with an almost round gaze, and he was almost drooling, his throat unconsciously making swallowing sounds.
One must know, back in the Jade Dining Hall of Taiqing Sect, these were rare delicacies that required a hefty sum to taste.
