Chapter 588: Chapter 588: Delighted to See It Happen

"Brother Tian, that Fang Bai, is he really an Earth Level Martial Artist?"

Watching Fang Bai’s retreating figure, a tall and thin martial artist asked Qiu Tian from behind.

Qiu Tian nodded, "It must be correct... Fang Bai gives me an unfathomable feeling! Facing him is like facing the leader of our Zhongnan Mountain... and our leader’s cultivation level is also Earth Level!"

"That’s to say, Fang Bai’s actual age must be quite significant!"

"To cultivate to the realm of reversing aging is truly miraculous!"

"Maybe the Dragon Maiden wasn’t joking, and his real age is indeed twenty?"

"That’s impossible! Have you ever heard of a twenty-year-old Earth Level Martial Artist?"

"Did you notice Fang Bai’s expression and demeanor? That kind of composed ease, that kind of serenity, that transcendent air—he simply doesn’t have the temperament of a young martial artist! So not only is his age large, but it must also be quite considerable!"

"But even if a martial artist has reverted to a youthful state, would their mentality also turn young? Have you seen the clothes he wears? They are casual styles liked by young people... I think he seems more like a young person!"

"The person invited by the leader to discuss important matters, do you think he’s a young person?"

"Alright, let’s not talk about this now. Let’s observe a bit more and see! If Fang Bai is an older predecessor, we should show him respect and humility as is proper. If he’s a young person, here to compete with us for the Dragon Maiden, then we can’t allow him to succeed!"

"You know what kind of person the Dragon Maiden is. Once she’s made up her mind, nobody can change it, not even the Leader can do anything about her. If she really takes a liking to that Fang Bai, why don’t you try to stop her and see?"

"Are you stupid? We can’t stop the Dragon Maiden, but we can stop Fang Bai! As long as we are united and work together, we can surely mess up their affair!"

"But Fang Bai is an Earth Level Martial Artist, aren’t you afraid of provoking him?"

"Have you forgotten? ’Dragon Guard’ forbids interpersonal conflicts! No matter how powerful Fang Bai is, there is still Leader Long above us! I don’t think he would dare to strike at us?"

"That seems to make sense..."

......

"Achoo—"

Fang Bai, who was walking with the Dragon Maiden toward the central area of the large estate, suddenly felt his nose itch and couldn’t help but sneeze.

"Someone must be speaking ill of me behind my back!"

Fang Bai rubbed his nose and said to the Dragon Maiden with a smile.

The Dragon Maiden glanced at him and joked, "Maybe someone is thinking of you?"

The Dragon Maiden had wanted to pull Fang Bai into the "Dragon Guard," so she had conducted an investigation on him. She knew quite a few things about the people and events around Fang Bai.

She knew that there were several stunning beauties around Fang Bai now, including some prominent young ladies like Su Linglong, Tang Wenrou, Ye Wumei, Dongfang Ruhua...

Sometimes the Dragon Maiden wondered, just what charm did this guy Fang Bai have, to attract so many outstanding girls to like him.

However, after observing Fang Bai carefully, she noticed that besides being a handsome, wealthy "young fresh meat," he also possessed a unique quality that seemed beyond the mundane world. This quality was indefinable, yet it had a kind of different appeal, making people yearn to get closer to him, and the longer they spent with him, the more they became fascinated.

The Dragon Maiden had interacted with Fang Bai several times and experienced this feeling personally, but she kept reassuring herself, "Fang Bai is a flirtatious playboy with many women around him; I certainly wouldn’t fall for such a man."

Despite this, every time she saw Fang Bai, the Dragon Maiden still felt very happy, and this feeling grew stronger with each encounter, unbeknownst to her.

Just now, the Dragon Maiden had been discussing an important matter with her grandfather, Long Jingtian. As soon as she received a call from Fang Bai, she lost interest in continuing the conversation and hurried out to meet him.

Seeing his granddaughter abandon their conversation and dash off in a rush, Long Jingtian couldn’t help but feel both amused and frustrated.

As an experienced old man, Long Jingtian of course noticed his granddaughter’s budding feelings for Fang Bai and was pleased to see it happen.

As for the fact that Fang Bai had many women around him, it might concern other parents and elders, but for a strong figure like Long Jingtian, such matters were trivial.

Long Jingtian shared the same view as Fang Bai; the path of the Martial Dao is long and endless. Matters of love and affection between men and women should not be rushed, nor should they be hindered by emotional attachments.

Long Jingtian believed that all relationships between men and women are about fate; if there is destiny, they will unite, if not, they will part—everything should happen naturally. Forcing anything could only be detrimental to a martial artist’s path in the Martial Dao.

If his granddaughter wished to be with Fang Bai, that was the path she chose for herself; he would let her walk it on her own and sincerely bless her, without influencing her thoughts and will.

Walking side by side with Fang Bai and chatting jovially, the Dragon Maiden approached a courtyard at the heart of the grand estate.

In other parts of the grand estate, security measures were stringent; martial artist auras were detectable everywhere, including several Earth Level martial artist auras. It was the most fortified place Fang Bai had ever visited. Without a high-rank Earth Level cultivation or above, one would find it very difficult to sneak in unnoticed.

However, upon reaching the courtyard in front of them, within a few hundred meters, everything became peaceful, devoid of any martial artist’s presence.

Fang Bai knew that this courtyard was Long Jingtian’s residence.

Although Long Jingtian hadn’t developed a Divine Sense, as a Heaven Level martial artist, his senses were incredibly sharp, covering hundreds of meters, thus no need for martial artists to guard the surroundings.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that even a fly entering from outside wouldn’t escape Long Jingtian’s keen senses.

"Grandfather, we’re here!"

The Dragon Maiden called out sweetly, casually pushing open the half-closed red lacquer gate and entering the courtyard with Fang Bai.

The courtyard was neither large nor small, featuring an Ancient Hall with two century-old trees standing before it. Between the trees, there were stone tables and benches in a tranquil and refined setting, a perfect place for cultivating one’s heart and nature.

At that moment, Long Jingtian, with his white hair and beard, was standing by the stone table between the two ancient trees, smiling at Fang Bai.

"Brother Fang, welcome! You are indeed a rare guest in my little courtyard!"

With a hearty laugh, Long Jingtian stepped forward to greet Fang Bai.

"Brother Long invited me; how could I dare not come? I’m also looking forward to the generous remuneration here!"

Fang Bai laughed and stepped forward, shaking hands with Long Jingtian.

The "Dragon Guard" was established by the former Prime Minister and several seniors from the Ancient Martial World, created to maintain the stability of Huaxia and the safety of its people. Every member of the "Dragon Guard" not only enjoys enviable privileges within Huaxia but also receives a substantial monthly salary according to their Cultivation Level and rank.
