954 My Name Is Chen Beixuan

Although they were all Longevity Roll Heavenly Talents, their ranks also existed among them. Jun Aochen, Xiao Hong and Gu Xiaoyi sat at the center of the stage while the others surrounded them like stars would surround the moon.

Everyone knew that only the top ten cultivators on the Longevity Roll had a slight chance of becoming Heavenly Lords. However slim that chance was, that was a reality which set them apart from the rest of the cultivators on the list. Many old curmudgeons would only reach the top ten on the list and disregard the rest.

“Brother Aochen, I didn’t expect to see you here. It has been thirty years since we met at the Northern Sea. You have improved your level of attainment by leaps and bounds. It’s a shame neither Brother Huaixian nor the mysterious Chen Beixuan is here, otherwise, it would have been one h.e.l.l of a party!” Gu Xiaoyi lamented.

He hailed from one of the Ten Major Heavenly Regions, the Heavenly Region of w.a.n.gqin, and was a renowned ladie’s man. He was wearing a white outfit that contrasted with his dark long hair. On his back was a blade called Li Shang. It was considered the most powerful treasure below the Heavenly Treasure category. He himself was also called the Li Shang Sword Prince.

Gu Xiaoyi considered himself superior to all the Longevity Roll Elites ranked below him.

“Brother Huaixian doesn’t like crowds, so I doubt he would join us. As for Chen Beixuan, he is even more elusive than Li Huaixian,” Xiao Hong said with a furrowed brow.

“Li Huaixian has been cultivating in seclusion, trying to reach Nascent Soul. As for Chen Beixuan, I have found out that he was from a small family in the Beihan Region. Despite his humble beginning, he was extremely deadly and could counter Heavenly Treasures with his bare hands. He slaughtered an entire race by himself. I don’t think I would stand a chance against him,” Jun Aochen said carefully.

“Hm?”

Xiao Hong and the others were all taken aback by his words.

They knew Jun Aochen’s unswering self-confidence in his own abilities. He was from the Heaven Trampling Sect, the second most powerful Heavenly Sect in the Ten Major Heavenly Regions. Of the hundreds of battles he had taken part in, the only defeat was in the hands of Li Huaixian. No one had seen it coming when he conceded that he was no match against Chen Beixuan.

“You are too humble, Brother Aochen. Chen Beixuan’s victory was likely exaggerated. He is at the most as powerful as us, otherwise, he wouldn’t be trying to avoid us throughout the years. But nonetheless, it’s already quite an achievement to be our equal,” Gu Xiaoyi said with a smirk.

Everyone around him nodded.

Jun Aochen kept his silence. However, the battle-will inside his eyes burned more intensely.

“Brother Zhang, do you think Xiao Mang’s brother will join us today? Don’t forget that you have promised us not to get involved again,” the Xuankong Sword Prince said.

Disciples of the Ghost Underworld Sect said hotly, “That’s right. Our senior sect brother from the Ghost Underworld Sect has already arrived with our sect master a while ago. I doubt his benefactor can rival our sect master.”

Zhao Juexian had not only trampled over Yang Gangfeng’s body, but also the fifty thousands years of reputation of the Ghost Underworld Sect. The incident had stirred the sect master and spurred him to visit Mount Reincarnation to seek justice.

“Don’t worry. Sect Brother Lin has told me that the Grand Elder said we won’t mind what you do to him, as long as you spare his life,” Zhang Dongshan said while playing with the folded fan in his hand.

“Very well.”

Mu Yanping and the Xuankong Sword Prince both let out ugly grins. They waited patiently for Chen Fan’s arrival.

They were planning to teach Chen Fan a lesson right before everyone’s eyes. Wu Shan even flirted with the idea of keeping Chen Fan’s attractive swordmaiden as his personal slave, considering it as a payback for having landed a blow on him.

The vengefulness inside of Wu Shan was shared among many other cultivators.

Zhou Kun and Li Dani both sat expectantly in their seats, rubbing their hands together, ready to punish Chen Fan for humiliating them. Although their injuries were not life-threatening, they couldn’t stomach the embarra.s.sment.

“If he dares to show up, I will ask the elders to destroy him. I will spread his ashes in the valley of ten thousand snakes, and feed him to the ten thousand poisonous bugs,” Li Dani said with pouty lips. Her flirtatious eyes were filled with hatred.

Even as everyone waited impatiently for Chen Fan, someone shouted, “Oh look! Is that him over there?”

The crowd turned around and looked toward the entrance.

They watched as Chen Fan ambled toward the entrance with his hands linked behind his back. He was flanked by three drop dead gorgeous women including the sword maiden, while Zhao Juexian brought up the rear.

Even while they were finally near the entrance, some people were still shocked to see that he had actually dared to turn up. Did he know that half of the guests on the platform were there to seek revenge?

Some other people couldn’t hold back their eagerness for payback, so they rose to their feet and were ready to throw themselves at Chen Fan at any moment.

“Sister, look! Isn’t that Xiao Mang’s brother?” Zhu Ninxue exclaimed.

Zhu Ninmuo looked up and saw Chen Fan and his companions.

“He has the audacity to show up even after sect brother Lin announced that he was no longer under the Reincarnation Sect’s protection. Does he know how many people here want to kill him on sight?”

Zhu Ninmuo was shocked.

They had been a.s.signed the post at the entrance as greeters. Whenever a guest arrived, they would announce their names loudly.

Gui Mingzi, Gongsun Kui, the Liyang Sword Lord and Xiao Hong…

Anyone of them could defeat Zhao Juexian with ease. Xiao Hong was particularly powerful since he ranked in the top ten of the Longevity Roll. They were accompanied by many grand elders and Sect Masters.

Zhu Ninmuo couldn’t think of one reason for Chen Fan to be there.

Her confusion was shared by many disciples of the Violet Moon Peak. They made way for Chen Fan, creating a path in the sea of people

“Please, let them know I am here.”

Chen Fan nodded with a smile.

“You… you…”

Zhu Ninmuo looked up at Chen Fan and was speechless.

She had only one thought in her mind.

“How could he have the audacity to come here?

“How?”

“That’s him!”

Wu Shandu and many other low level cultivators sat closer to the entrance and were among the first to recognize Chen Fan. Some even jumped out of their seats in fury. If not for their courtesy toward the host, the Reincarnation Sect, they would have drawn their blades and attacked right then.

“How dare you to actually show up? Do you really think so little of us? Very well then, since you are here, you might as well stay here forever.”

Wu Shandu let out a ugly grin as poison spilled out of his eyes.

Mu Yanping, the Xuankong Sword Prince and the red-haired brawny man all rose to their feet and followed Wu Shan to the entrance. Their level of attainment was lower than Zhao Juexian’s, but they have already sent people to notify the elders and more powerful Heavenly Talents.

It wasn’t long before more than half of the Heavenly Talents on the platform learned of Chen Fan’s arrival.

“Humph! He had the audacity to humiliate my sect; let him pay the price.”

Gui Mingzi rose to his feet with a cold smirk.

“Just so, we need to teach him a lesson!” the Liyang Sword Lord nodded in agreement.

The Heavenly Jade Sword Prince, Gongsun Kui and Xiao Hong remained seated at the head of the table; however, displeasure also flickered in their eyes. They knew that Chen Fan was no longer under the Reincarnation Sect’s protection; therefore, he would be no match against them.

“Sigh… You’re too arrogant.” Hua Nonyin heaved a sigh in her mind.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao shook his head and took a sip of wine.

Chen Fan’s fate was set in stone the moment Grand Elder had spoken.

Everyone waited expectantly for Chen Fan to enter the platform. They projected their Divine Sense to observe Chen Fan’s actions.

Xiao Mang’s face paled and became lifeless.

“Cultivator Chen, are you sure you want to enter?”

Zhu Ninmuo looked at Chen Fan as if he had gone mad.

Many Heavenly Talents might not bring themselves to attack Chen Fan if he remained on that side of the entrance. However, as soon as he walked through the threshold, any one of those Heavenly Talents could be his enemy. They might even kill Chen Fan by “accident,” and no one would care.

“Please inform G.o.ddess Shenxi that Chen Beixuan has prepared a gift for her.”

Chen Fan received a long jade box from Zhao Juexian and then he handed it over to Zhu Ninmuo.

Zhu Ninmuo accepted the box in a daze. She had never met anyone who would disregard his own life as Chen Fan did. She could already see the grinning faces of Gui Mingzi, Wu Shan and Zhou Kun.

“I will write down your name and the message about your gift here,” Zhu Ninmuo said mechanically and was going to write down Chen Fan’s name on the jade tablet.

They were surrounded by gloating glares.

Meanwhile, Gui Mingzi had already gone through the threshold and shot a hot glance at Chen Fan.

“Chen Beixuan, his three servant girls and his old servant Zhao Juexian congratulate G.o.ddess Shenxi. We offer you three Heavenly Pills!” Chen Fan ignored the glares around him and announced.

His tone was soft, but his words were heard over the entire Reincarnation Sect. Some people felt that the sky was falling around their ears.

“Ok.”

Zhu Ninmuo was going to write down his name, and suddenly, realization dawned on her. She felt her heart skip a beat.

“What did you say? Chen Beixuan?” Zhu Ninmuo stammered. She looked up, gaping at Chen Fan incredulously.

Zhu Ninxue, Wu Shan and Zhou Kun were all seized by fear and disbelief. Gui Mingzi was stopped cold in his tracks. He looked at Chen Fan, eyes filled with horror.

“Superior-grade Heavenly Pills?”

“Elixir Monarch, Chen Beixuan?”

The air seemed to have stopped flowing for a moment.

Everyone was speechless by the turn of events.

Even Xiao Hong and Gu Xiaoyi pulled a taut face. Meanwhile, Lin Xiao and Zhang Dongshan were shaken to the core. They didn’t even realize that they had dropped their wine cups.

w.a.n.g Xuanlong let out a peal of laughter and gulped the content of his cup down his throat.

“Great! You’re finally here!”

“Elixir Monarch Chen!”
