"This..."
The elder's eyes widened imnsely, as if he had seen a ghost, his emotions completely out of control as he stumbled backward in horror.
This unexpected scene caught the attention of not only Mu Feng, Ning Yun, and everyone around, but each person, while shocked, locked their brows tightly with a heavy expression.
Even Chen Yang and Yang Hu exchanged a glance.
A whiff of breeze ca unannounced.
ssy long hair scattered carelessly. As the breeze gently blew, it lifted the disheveled hair just right, revealing the person's appearance for all to see.
Plainly unremarkable.
If one had to ntion a feature, only shabby, dressed like a beggar, left a deep impression.
Hmm?
Whether it was Ning Yun or Mu Feng, or the hundreds of spectators around, all frowned in bewildernt.
Never seen him before, yet such a person frightened the elder from the City Lord's Mansion who was clearly of uncommon stature, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing?
"Chen, Chen Changsheng?!"
At last, the elder regained his composure, squeezing a sentence through his teeth, "You, you're still alive?"
Boom!
Mu Feng was dumbfounded, almost falling off his horse, his face covered in sweat, dripping down his cheeks, one drop after another.
Chen Changsheng?
This, how is this possible?
Ning Yun's situation was no better than Mu Feng's, his limbs trembling uncontrollably.
Chen Yang: "..."
The crowd: "..."
"What's happening? Why are these two young masters so scared?"
"It's Chen Changsheng! My heavens, this old monster is still alive?!"
Due to the age gap, many hadn't seen Chen Changsheng, but the majority had heard of his legendary deeds as the Sect Master of the Changsheng Sect.
Truly overpowering his era!
It was said that during that ti, all his contemporaries were beneath his feet, unable to lift their heads.
He was practically the symbol of that era.
If not for opposing the entire Yuning Mountain later on, he would undoubtedly be the most prominent figure on Yuning Mountain, able to shake the world with a re stomp.
However, that massive siege completely crushed the Changsheng Sect, eradicating it thoroughly.
Fifty years have passed.
Almost everyone believed that this once era-leading figure had long been killed, along with the Changsheng Sect disappearing into the river of ti.
But before them...
"Could it be mistaken identity?" soone questioned.
Actually, many shared this doubt, but the elder from the City Lord's Mansion was clearly from the sa era as Chen Changsheng; how could he be mistaken?
"They say Chen Yang is alone, without any backing?"
The elder, indeed Chen Changsheng himself, glanced playfully at Ning Yun and Mu Feng, smiling with a hint of amusent: "How is my Changsheng Sect?"
"Ning Family? City Lord's Mansion? They're not even fit to carry the shoes of my Changsheng Sect!"
Mu Feng: "..."
Ning Yun: "..."
These words were like thunder, hitting them like a shock from above.
"Do you think my Changsheng Sect is gone?"
Chen Changsheng stood with hands behind him, grinning, "With , Chen Changsheng still here, how can the Changsheng Sect be extinct?"
Boom!
In an instant.
Ning Yun, Mu Feng, and everyone around, their thoughts exploded, their minds blank.
Even Chen Yang, Yang Hu, and Gu Zhiqing had their eyes contract.
"How is this possible? The Changsheng Sect was supposed to be annihilated fifty years ago?"
"That's what they say, but this information has never been completely confird."
All beings, stunned beyond belief.
The once peerless, trailblazing leader of the Changsheng Sect, the legendary Chen Changsheng, returns to the public eye after half a century away.
This, this feels like a dream.
"Speak!!"
Raising his voice, Chen Changsheng's aura overwheld the air, demanding, "How is my Changsheng Sect?"
Once so domineering, dictating terms like a king, Mu Feng now trembled entirely, not daring to move recklessly.
Hiss.
Taking a sharp breath, Mu Feng felt cold sweat drench him entirely, its sticky, icy nature making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, even his blood seed frozen.
This pitiful appearance fell into everyone's eyes.
While feeling incredible, there was also a trace of anxiety and excitent, as the once dominant figure returns.
Ti flies, years pass swiftly.
Fifty years have gone by, and now the king returns.
"Hmm?!"
A chilling, oppressive voice once more echoed through the field.
Mu Feng quickly dismounted, tremblingly stepping forward, respectfully greeting, "Grandfather Changsheng, I'm sorry, I, a junior, was reckless."
This old man is terrifying.
Looking at him felt like witnessing boundless mountains, endless and vast.
If not forcibly suppressing the roiling thoughts and fears at heart, Mu Feng couldn't even utter a word.
Ning Yun stood trembling, paralyzed, hardly daring to breathe.
"Back then, your great-grandfather served tea, respectfully calling Brother Changsheng, never as arrogant and reckless as you." Chen Changsheng chuckled.
"Even your grandfather, Little Guang, had to kneel before , calling uncle."
Mu Feng: "..."
The crowd: "..."
The esteed elder of the City Lord's Mansion, Mu Guang, a prominent figure on Yuning Mountain, reduced to 'Little Guang' before all?
Most importantly, Mu Feng, a direct descendant of the Mu Family, dared not utter a word, only sweat densely like a waterfall.
"Grandfather Changsheng, I often hear my grandfather ntion you, praising you as a great hero."
After a while, Mu Feng rasped out, his deanor akin to a child caught doing wrong by an elder, hands uneasy.
Then he continued, "My great-grandfather passed away ten years ago."
"I always knew that fellow would die before ."
Chen Changsheng laughed, "Do you want to send you down to et him?"
Buzz!
What does this an, is he going to kill ?
Mu Feng's mind buzzed as he imdiately knelt, repeatedly kowtowing for rcy.
Chen Changsheng remained unmoved, his gaze landing on Ning Yun.
Instantly, Ning Yun felt electrified, slumped to the ground, supporting himself, trembling violently.
"Ning Qinghe, is he dead?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"Great-grandfather passed away." Ning Yun responded hastily.
"Eh."
Chen Changsheng mused, "Mountains remain unchanged, the blue sea keeps flowing, ti doesn't age, yet all those from back then have withered."
After a while.
Chen Changsheng squinted, scanning everyone present, including the surrounding spectators, "You may all co at at once, or end yourselves here."
"Consider this your one chance at survival."
The crowd: "..."
"..."
