"You sure are attentive!"
Brother Cheng laughed and patted his shoulder, expressing rare admiration.
"I couldn't have imagined that you, a protagonist from a wuxia template, could achieve such heights."
Of course, he recognized Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor.
But after recognizing him, he couldn't help but find it quite unbelievable himself.
Back in the lower realm of Thousand Spirit Domain, Brother Cheng had conquered the Silence Sacred Land and led the disciples of Feixian Sect to relocate there.
Afterward, he, being boastful, organized a grand opening ceremony and intentionally invited cultivators from nearby to attend the feast.
Because there were several hostile sacred lands around at the time, everyone was skeptical of the newly established Feixian Sect, so not many came, and their cultivation levels were generally low.
The most outrageous of them was the White Feather Sword Saint, invited by Yin Xuer.
Though he was called a Sword Saint, he was just a top-notch expert among mortal martial artists, having never set foot in the realm of cultivation.
Thus, Brother Cheng had some impression of him.
But he never dreamed that this person would later become so formidable.
The achievements of being the foremost expert of the Middle Immortal Realm, even reaching Quasi-Emperor status, exceeded quite a few top-tier cultivators of the various great realms back then.
Simply amazing.
"That banquet opened the door to cultivation for me."
The former White Feather Sword Saint, now the sincere Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor, bowed slightly to Brother Cheng.
He reverently took out an old storage ring from his bosom.
The storage ring was a yellowish tone, merely a low-tier spiritual artifact, with a very limited space that few would care about in the Immortal Realm.
Yet, from the surface worn smooth from countless rubs, it was clear its owner had cherished it many times over.
"The kindness of gifting fruit and treasures, unforgettable to this day!"
Who said Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor was unfamiliar with worldly affairs?
At this moment, his unwavering gaze towards Jiang Cheng reflected sincerity anyone could see.
"Even after a hundred thousand years, upon entering the Immortal Realm, I learned you've done even more for all ascenders from the lower realm."
Without Brother Cheng moving the Void Immortal Realm and removing the Treasure Bottle False Immortal Realm, the lower realm cultivators would still be unable to ascend.
In hindsight, all future ascenders from the lower realm should really thank him.
"Hahaha, it was just a flick of the wrist, hardly worth mentioning..."
Though speaking humbly, Brother Cheng was genuinely quite proud inside.
Despite not having any grand vision of benefiting future ascenders when he ascended back then.
He hadn't thought that far ahead at all, come on!
"A flick of the wrist for you, but for me, it was a profound rebirth!"
White Feather Sword Saint solemnly declared, "Without you, I would've lived barely a century, already turned into dust."
"Being able to see you again today, my Sword Heart is finally complete; this life has no regrets!"
Hearing this, everyone present caught onto the flavor of the conversation.
So feelings were that this 'foremost expert of the Middle Immortal Realm', was groomed single-handedly by Sect Leader Jiang?
No wonder he decisively defected from Infinite Cave Heaven for him.
Seriously, just what kind of profound influence does the old master have?
Thinking about it, too, he single-handedly eliminated 35 Immortal Kings; this feat was even more extraordinary than Chen Zhou back then.
But they seem like completely different styles of people, how did they end up together?
"Why did you change your name, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known it was you."
"My original name was Bai Chenzhou. White Feather was a nickname given by martial arts peers when I roamed with a white feather hung on my sword hilt."
In legends, the usually silent Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor, has now entered a mood of knowing no restraint in sharing.
"Oh, so that's how it is!"
Sect Leader Jiang suddenly queried with annoyance, "Then when you came to Middle Immortal Realm, why didn't you join my Feixian Sect?"
"Why so disrespectful?"
Thinking about it too, Bai Chenzhou became renowned in the Middle Immortal Realm 30 to 50 million years ago, when Feixian Sect's second, third, and fourth generation disciples had long since ascended.
It was precisely during Feixian Sect's rapid decline.
Had he joined then, Feixian Sect could've been glorified for another 20 million years.
And everyone else was helpless.
Dude, he's a Quasi-Emperor after all.
Moreover, he's one of those people who keep to himself without cracking a smile!
Shouldn't we maintain at least a bit of courtesy when speaking with him?
But Bai Chenzhou immediately apologized with our sword in hand.
"When I first arrived in Middle Immortal Realm, I did not know you had a legacy here."
"By the time I learned, I was already about to ascend to the Upper Immortal Realm..."
He is someone who ignores worldly matters, focusing only on challenges.
In the Celestial Domain of Middle Immortal Realm, the declining Feixian Sect was not noticeable in Qianlan Celestial Realm, it's truly no wonder he hadn't heard of it initially.
"Alright, I'll let you off this time."
The crowd was left speechless once again.
"Let off a Quasi-Emperor, how peculiar does that sound?"
"What's the situation in the Upper Immortal Realm now, are my disciples and grand disciples doing well?"
Now that someone had come down, Brother Cheng wanted to inquire about Ji Linghan and the others' situation.
This question also drew the attention of all Feixian Sect disciples present, who stood with ears perked and gazes full of anticipation.
Bai Chenzhou shook his head.
"Their situation is not very good, they've suffered attacks from both Immortal and Demon Dao, with heavy casualties, currently at..."
He seemed to want to say more, but his figure quickly faded.
There's a time limit for coming down from Upper Immortal Realm, set by the collective laws of all Immortal Emperors and Demon Emperors of the Upper Immortal Realm.
Compared to the laws just imposed by the three earlier, it's countless times stronger, even Immortal Emperors themselves can't break it.
Once time is up, one is forcibly summoned back to the Upper Immortal Realm.
"Hey hey, brother, finish your words before leaving!"
Watching him disappearing completely before his eyes, Brother Cheng became anxious.
"Brother, are you filming a movie? Saying half a sentence and then gone, at least tell me where they are!"
He patted his thigh regrettably.
"Damn it, should've skipped pleasantries and gone straight to the point from the start!"
Beside him, Xiao Kun, Shali, and the others already looked up in immense admiration.
Facing a fortune-loaded Demon Level powerhouse like Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor, probably only Sect Leader Jiang dares to be so casual.
"Haha, Sect Leader Jiang is formidable!"
"As expected of you!"
"No matter the crisis, always able to resolve it easily."
While flattering, a few also curiously asked.
"What past relationship did you have with Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor back then? I only heard he's also an ascender from the lower realm."
Their impression of Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor was profound.
Moreover, Jiang Cheng being familiar with him meant having this connection, maybe when they go to the Upper Immortal Realm, they'd have extra paths through him!
Brother Cheng thought if he revealed his early identity and strength, these defeated ones under him were sure to suffer massive critical strike damage.
Better avoid that.
"Alright, let's get down to business!"
White Feather Sword Saint was quite 'considerate', having eliminated the people of Infinite Cave Heaven, yet not cleaning the battlefield.
Brother Cheng naturally, for proper reasons, accepted his spoils of war gleefully.
After collecting them, he came before Wu Luo Immortal King, Ren An Demon King, and other experts.
Smilingly rubbing his chin: "Just now, you seemed to be on the side of Infinite Cave Heaven?"
"No!"
Wu Luo Immortal King's body trembled, he promptly stated loudly: "Absolutely not! We stood by your side from the beginning to end!"
Ren An Demon King's head shook with resolute firmness: "Our Taiyin Palace has always been at odds with Infinite Cave Heaven, absolutely couldn't have sided with them!"
They weren't stupid.
No matter if they were fence-sitters earlier, they couldn't admit it now.
