Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“A core member of the North Qiong Sect?”

Chen Fan frowned.

Fang Qiong, his parents, Chen Huaian, Sister An, Yukishiro Sa, A’Xiu and Yu Wenjin were the core of the North Qiong Sect, followed by the backbone members of the sect, including Xie Yan and Hua Yunfeng. They had become Connate Cultivators a decade before. If they were still alive, they should have entered the Golden Core Level by then. After that, there were some elders at the Immortal State or the family members of the Chen family.

They were the only core members of the North Qiong Sect, none of the rest were. Those Chen Fan had met during this time were basically normal members.

“I’m not sure who exactly this person is, but he’ll certainly be there.” Auntie Tang nodded. She looked exhausted. She seemed to have been running around for Chen Fan’s sake during this time.

“Hm, thank you, Auntie Tang. I understand.” Chen Fan nodded and felt really grateful for her help.

He finally decided to stay. After all, Auntie Tang was so willing to help and it didn’t matter even if he couldn’t find anything in the end.

The gathering was called the “Jiang Bei Cultivation Grand Event.” There was advertising about it everywhere.

Considered the most popular gathering of high-level cultivators in Jiang Bei, it was held once a year and was the signature event of the province. Every year, martial artists and cultivators in the surrounding provinces made their way over.

Other than the Immortal State Warriors, some young cultivators would also attend the event. This was the fastest way to become recognized cultivators in Jiang Bei and the few neighboring provinces. A lot of television stations, media and platforms were live-broadcasting the event. The whole world would immediately know when someone won a match.

“You’re going too? You don’t have any powers. You didn’t even dare to accept Lu Yang’s challenge, either… Why would you go to a cultivation event?” Jiang Feifei said.

“Xiao Fei, how can you talk to your brother like that?” Auntie Tang said.

Jiang Feifei could only apologize. Although she was mature and she would never make a fuss about little things, she still felt upset at this moment. After that, she kept playing with her phone along the way.

Chen Fan was happy about it.

Out of expectation, the venue used for the event was not located in Jiang Bei, but near the border of Dong Jiang Province. As they approached their destination, Chen Fan became more and more serious. He was very familiar with this place.

Qin Yang County!

In his previous life, Zhou Tianhao had invited Chen Fan to this place. He met his first disciple, A’Xiu, and defeated Linhu, rising to the top of Jiang Bei.

“Is this a reincarnation?”

Chen Fan didn’t believe in destiny, but this was a truly eerie coincidence. He felt like he would meet an old acquaintance there, or even a few, but he had no idea as to who.

Qin Yang County was considerably larger than it used to be. It had become a small, yet crowded city, especially by countless martial artists, spell casters and cultivators flooding in for the Jiang Bei Cultivation Grand Event.

Chen Fan said his goodbyes to Auntie Tang and walked around the city.

The people who walked past him were basically Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Some were Ethereal Enlightenment Grandmasters and there were even a couple of Immortal State Warriors. All of them were fierce and the crowd always made way for them.

“How flourishing!” Chen Fan exclaimed.

Qin Yang County was just a small town back then. The guest house from before only had two floors and A’Xiu was one of the employees there. At the moment, there were tall buildings everywhere and the concentration of cultivators was much denser than in normal cities. There were all kinds of cultivation stores on the streets and virtually everyone had powers. It was almost a cultivation city.

A familiar voice came. “Oh, Brother Chen, you’re here too?”

Chen Fan turned around and saw Yan Junze with a bunch of Young Masters and Young Ladies behind him. Yan Junze immediately walked over and introduced Chen Fan to his friends.

But those Young Masters and Young Ladies from the rich families in Chu Zhou City had already seen how Chen Fan had rejected Lu Yang, so they only nodded. Some girls even had a trace of disdain in their eyes.

“Brother Chen…” Yan Junze was embarrassed.

“It’s all right. You go on ahead.” Chen Fan patted his shoulder and left. Yan Junze stayed there with a frustrated look and finally followed Chen Fan.

“Hm, aren’t you afraid you’ll never be able to get into the upper-class social circle of Chu Zhou City like me?” Chen Fan wondered.

“Heh, I don’t always meet people I like. I’m sick of staying with those people all day and saying things that even I don’t want to hear,” Yan Junze said, “Of course, those are just some ordinary people. I wouldn’t do the same to cultivators like Lu Yang and Chu Yun.”

“Haha!”

Chen Fan smiled.

That was really someone who was true to himself.

The two of them wandered around Qin Yang County and went to see the event’s venue. It was indeed magnificent. The hall was ten times larger than the top stadium. Yan Junze said it had been made with a special kind of alloy and some Array Grandmasters had formed arrays there, which were able to withstand the attacks of Connate Cultivators. A hundred billion yuan had been invested to build that venue.

“Ah, the event has already started, but people like us can only wait outside until they finish and settle everything. Even so, one ticket can cost a few hundred thousand yuan,” Yan Junze said.

According to him—

Superior young cultivators like Lu Yang, Chu Yun, Zhao Mingkong and Jiang Feifei were probably meeting some respected cultivation seniors under the lead of their masters. The seniors might take some of them in as disciples and teach them Divine Arts. And yet, ordinary people like the both of them weren’t even qualified to see those seniors.

“Right, I heard that even the beauty of Jiang Nan Province will also attend this gathering,” Yan Junze said.

“You.”

Chen Fan found it funny. The guy would always rant about beautiful girls.

Meanwhile, Chu Minhui and Tang Yifei were entering Qin Yang County in a black car.

“Are you sure? The remaining members of the North Qiong Sect are here?” Chu Minhui lowered his head.

“Hm, I’m sure. They seem to be the main organizers of this year’s event. According to the information, the event is held in Qin Yang County because they’re waiting for Chen Beixuan to return. However, I heard that there are more and more forces involved in organizing the event and the fights over interests are getting more intense. Up till now, there are only a few remaining members of the North North Qiong Sect left there.”

Tang Yifei whispered, “If there are people on Earth who know anything about Chen Beixuan, it would be them.”

“All right!”

Chu Minhui nodded with determination in his eyes.

This day, not only Chu Minhui and Tang Yifei, many others who either knew or had never met Chen Fan were making their way to Qin Yang County.

Inside a pretty bamboo building at a lake outside of Qin Yang County.

A fifteen-year-old girl in a white cultivation outfit was about to go out. She said to the old lady with white hair, “Auntie Xiu, see you.”

The old lady’s face was full of wrinkles. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the girl. She wanted to ask the girl to stay, but only heaved a sigh in the end.

The girl left seriously. There were two words on her clothes.

“North Qiong!”
