Chapter 416: Zhen Nanxing

The white-robed man stopped playing the zither and looked over.

Only to see Su Chen dressed in a purple robe, with slanted eyebrows and cold starry eyes. The aura of Dao surrounded him, untouched by any dust, appearing as if a true immortal had descended to the mortal realm.

Behind him, Long Wu stood quietly, highly vigilant as she stared fixedly at the white-robed man, never relaxing her guard.

She felt a great threat from this man. Though he seemed calm, without any powerful aura leaking out, Long Wu was certain that if he made a move, it would be earth-shatteringly powerful. Even the starry sky would be forcibly destroyed.

Despite being a Saint King Realm master herself, Long Wu felt no safety standing before this man. It was as if she were but an ant looking up at the dragon in the sky – utterly powerless and afraid.

Buzz…

At this moment, a ray of light tore through the air and merged into Su Chen. When it faded, a figure appeared at Su Chen’s side. It was none other than Qin Hao!

Seeing Su Chen, Qin Hao said joyfully, “Big brother! When did you get here?”

“I’ve been here a while, but couldn’t come in person due to something, so 1 could only send a phantom, thus the delay,” Su Chen replied with a smile.

He had originally planned to come personally, but this white-robed man’s presence forced him to remain.

Glancing at the man, Su Chen already had some guesses about his identity, but could not be certain for now.

“The Longevity Immortal Body was lost yet recovered. No wonder Fellow Daoist Su Chen would save you at all costs. Since ancient times, you’re the first who could revive it a second time!” the white-robed man said profoundly, smiling at Qin Hao.

His gaze then shifted slightly to Su Chen. “Fellow Daoist Su Chen, our Shadowless Hall has lost a Longevity Immortal Body. Do you plan to compensate us with one?”

“Haha…” Su Chen sneered, neither affirming nor denying as he sized up the white-robed man. “I still don’t know your name!”

“Zhen Nanxing! Fellow Daoist Su Chen can also call me Zhen Tianwang!” the man smiled slightly, hiding nothing of his name.

He then added, “My name is too ancient. Fellow Daoist Su Chen likely hasn’t heard of it.”

“Zhen Nanxing?” Su Chen’s brows furrowed slightly. Exchanging a look with Long Wu, he saw the same confusion in her eyes. As the man said, neither had heard this name, whether in the current era or the ancient times Long Wu came from. There seemed no trace of this person.

Logically, this white-robed man’s strength should at least exceed theirs, either at the peak stage of the Saint King Realm or the Quasi-Emperor Realm! Such a person would be famous whenever he existed, leaving his mark on the long river of time.

Yet strangely, one so powerful seemed to appear from thin air, with no legends recording his past, as if materializing suddenly before them.

“That’s right.” Zhen Nanxing was very powerful, seemingly merged with the Great Dao, far exceeding Su Chen and Long Wu despite no aura leaking out. Yet he showed no arrogance, saying amiably, “I wonder if Fellow Daoist Su Chen agrees to my earlier proposal?”

Smiling, he sized up Qin Hao several times, obviously extremely satisfied with him. Of course, he was even more satisfied with Su Chen! Unfortunately, Su Chen’s will was too firm, already grown to great heights. Recruiting him now would be nigh impossible as ascending to heaven. But for a rising star like Qin Hao, there was still a sliver of chance, albeit only a sliver, the final outcome depending on Su Chen’s attitude.

“Haha…” Su Chen sneered. “Doesn’t the Shadowless Hall behind Fellow Daoist already prove its worth?”

Hearing this, Zhen Nanxing’s expression froze stiffly. He knew Su Chen was alluding to Qin Yuan – possessing two peerless talents, yet unable to match Qin Hao without his fully awakened Longevity Immortal Body. This showed Shadowless Hall had completely failed at nurturing talent. If Qin Hao went over, heavens knew what they would groom him into, perhaps a second Qin Yuan!

“What Fellow Daoist Su Chen sees is but the tip of the iceberg. It’s just like this world now. Does Fellow Daoist Su Chen believe you’re seeing the complete picture?” Zhen Nanxing said meaningfully.

“Hmm?” Hearing this, Su Chen’s eyes narrowed, staring at Zhen Nanxing in surprise. “Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by this?”

He had been here a long time since transmigrating, his strength reaching the Great Saint Realm. Though outsiders were unaware, at his level, Su Chen stood high above billions of lives. Few existences were more fearsome, mostly old monsters in seclusion. If Su Chen did not understand the whole world, others understood even less.

As Su Chen knew, though vast, he was aware of a few ancient great domains like the East Barrens, the Southern Region, the Central Plains, the Northern Region, etc. Generally, knowing these places meant roughly grasping the entire world.

Yet Zhen Nanxing’s words seemed meaningful.

“Haha, the Shadowless Hall is not what Fellow Daoist Su sees,” Zhen Nanxing smiled. “There are many like me in Shadowless Hall, just as in places you cannot see, this world has incomparably vast lands. Though Qin Yuan has two peerless talents, he hasn’t reached where we would exhaustively nurture him. But Qin Hao differs. If he joins the Shadowless Hall, his treatment will certainly exceed Qin Yuan’s! Likewise, his future achievements will too!”

“Haha…” Su Chen also smiled coldly, staring at Zhen Nanxing.. “I wonder where the other existences like you are?”
