Chapter 768: Chapter 471: Come Back to Life, My Love! (Foreshadowing, Must Read)

Hearing the precise answer, Chen Yuan’s already serious expression grew even more solemn. He had previously learned about the strong figures on the Fengyun List, which included ’Four Symbols Divine Arrow’ Liu Zhenzong.

This man hailed from the Liu Family of Shuzhou. While the family may not have been renowned, no one dared to underestimate them due to the significant history of the ’Liu Family’.

Their ancestors were from a royal lineage predating the former Chu among the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

However, after enduring a millennium of changes, their present might was no longer as formidable as it once had been. On the surface, they lacked a True Master in the Yang Transformation Realm, yet their heritage ran deep.

Once, a power-seeker in the Yang Transformation Realm coveted the Liu Family, intending to annihilate it.

But for reasons unknown, after that figure in the Yang Transformation Realm made their vicious threat, they vanished completely from the Jianghu. It was commonly said that a reclusive Liu Family powerhouse emerged and killed that person.

Liu Zhenzong was also quite extraordinary, being a contemporary of Jiang He on the Hidden Dragon List and having once ranked in the top ten. Although not as conspicuous as Jiang He,

he was definitely one of the few Dan Realm masters below the Yang Transformation Realm.

Especially in the art of archery, he was unrivaled in the Jianghu.

Very few could match him.

The Four Symbols Divine Arrow had even killed several Dan Realm Masters, and there were rumors in the Jianghu that his strength was likely not limited to the thirty-second position on the Fengyun List, boasting the capacity of the top twenty.

"I’ve long admired you,"

said Chen Yuan as he clasped his hands and bowed slightly towards Liu Zhenzong.

"Brother Chen is too generous,"

replied Liu Zhenzong, a man of few words, as he returned the gesture with a fist and palm salute.

"Brother Chen, this isn’t a good place to talk. How about... we gather at Star Gazing Tower in Prefecture City of Jiangdu?" suggested Shangguan Yu with a smile.

"Sure,"

Chen Yuan nodded in agreement.

...

...

The Star Gazing Tower mentioned by Shangguan Yu was also among the businesses under Shangguan Clan’s jurisdiction, renowned within Prefecture City of Jiangdu and frequented by martial artists from the Jianghu.

With this good brother around, the group was naturally arranged to be at the top floor.

After three rounds of wine and a variety of dishes,

the casual conversation at the banquet began. With Shangguan Yu warming up the atmosphere, they all enjoyed themselves quite well, and with Liu Zhenzong’s reticence, Chen Yuan became the center of attention.

Many topics revolved around him.

The most discussed was his previous victory in the Immortal Battle, where he defeated all heroes and emerged first, as well as his forceful shattering of the Sumeru Illusion Realm in the Capital, thereby uplifting the spirit of Central Plains Martial Artists.

He was practically their role model.

Apart from that, Chen Yuan also briefly inquired about Shangguan Yu’s cultivation, which, by and large, was consistent with what Shangguan Hong had mentioned before—everything was steady and under control.

With the support of the Shangguan Clan behind him, it was rare for problems to arise.

Shangguan Yu quickly waved his hand and uttered some modest words.

Of course, while he was being modest in speech, he felt the same at heart.

His talents were indeed exceptional, breaking through to the Dan Realm before thirty years old, and were considered a rarity even when compared across the entire world. But compared to Chen Yuan, the gap was simply too great.

Because by this time, Chen Yuan had already stepped into the True Core Realm ahead of him and soared into the top fifty of the Fengyun List, placing them on completely different levels.

After exchanging modesty, the Sect Leader of Mad Saber Sect brought up the matter of Tang Sect’s invitation. They were all invited, and deep down, each harbored their own little calculations.

Some merely wanted to watch the excitement, others intended to profit from the situation, and some wished to foster relations with the Tang Sect Leader.

After all, Tang Xianzhuo was reputed in Shuzhou for his potential to reach the Yang Transformation Realm. Although currently only in the top thirty of the Fengyun List, like Liu Zhenzong, no one dared to belittle him.

Chen Yuan remained silent, absorbing information beneficial to himself.

From the way the opportunity had presented itself, he suspected that there must be an ulterior motive for the Tang Sect Leader to organize this triennial grand ceremony. There had to be some secretive scheme, and his purpose was to take advantage of it,

to seize the chance that belonged to him.

At the table, everyone chatted merrily until the gathering concluded near dawn. Chen Yuan was also accommodated in an excellent room, adjacent to Liu Zhenzong.

The two men nodded to each other with a smile and turned to leave.

With that, another night passed.

Chen Yuan did not share his suspicions of potential issues the next day with Shangguan Yu. He felt that even if he did tell him, it would likely be of no use; it would be better to offer advice when the time actually came.

That night was a sleepless one for Chen Yuan, who spent it in meditation.

Meanwhile, within a Tang Sect estate in Prefecture City, a different scene unfolded.

The Tang Sect Leader, Tang Xianzhuo, had inherited his position from his father. In earlier years, his father was merely an inconspicuous elder within the Tang Sect. However, after encountering a benefactor, the Tang Sect gradually came under his father’s control, and the leadership was passed down to Tang Xianzhuo.

And he, too, remembered the teachings of his ancestors, that one day that senior would personally visit the Tang Sect, and they of the Tang Family must serve loyally and unconditionally.

More than a hundred years had passed, and Tang Xianzhuo had almost forgotten this matter, not taking it seriously until two months ago when a descendant bearing the token of that senior appeared!

The idea to organize this grand triennial ceremony came from that individual.

As for this mysterious force, Tang Xianzhuo dared not underestimate it and was very respectful. Of course, the main reason was that they had promised to help him with one thing—

A matter of utmost importance to him!

Inside the grand hall, where bright lights shone, Tang Xianzhuo sat at the head, squinting his eyes as if waiting for someone. His fingers tapped incessantly on the tabletop.

His figure was tall and straight, with an impressive appearance and wearing the attire of the Tang Sect Leader, exuding an aura of natural authority.

Suddenly, a breeze swept past the window, stirring the dry leaves on the ground. Tang Xianzhuo’s gaze sharpened, understanding that the person he was waiting for had arrived. He immediately knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice:
