Are You an Ancient?

"Ding... The dimensional portal has been opened, and you are currently traversing..."

"Ding... Transiting, please wait patiently..."

"Ding... Host, you have successfully arrived at the Azure World Azure Star Great World..."

Upon hearing the System notification, Zhou Chen, who had been waiting for a long time in the dimensional portal, stepped out and passed through the dazzling Myriad Realms Shuttle Door before him, setting foot on the land of Azure Star.

Stepping onto the soft soil, Zhou Chen immediately looked around.

As Dimensional Traveler, the first rule upon arriving in a new dimension is to observe the environment and respond accordingly.

Then he saw a young girl.

Instinctively, Zhou Chen immediately began to scrutinize the girl.

The girl clearly had the appearance of an Eastern human, wearing an elegant light green dress and a pair of jade earrings. Her delicate face was lightly made up, and her bright eyes were very lively, as if they could speak.

She wore a pair of exquisite silver high heels, her insteps as white as jade, and her ivory-white, smooth calves peeked out from under her skirt, adding to her alluring beauty.

Hmm, it looks very moisturized.

Feeling the admiring gaze of the handsome young man before him, Shang Buyu was secretly delighted, but outwardly appeared somewhat flustered and asked:

"May I ask who you are, and what brings you to the Thunder Sword Sect?"

Shang Buyu's voice was sweet and crisp, like pearls falling onto a jade plate, very pleasant to hear.

However, Zhou Chen didn't understand.

Shang Buyu was from the Great Xuan Kingdom, and the language he spoke belonged to the Great Xia Language System the Eastern Luo Continent Azure Star. Zhou Chen, a transmigrator from Douluo Star, naturally couldn't understand it.

Didn't we agree that Chinese would be spoken in all realms and planes?

After silently complaining, Zhou Chen immediately called the System and redeemed various languages from different countries and ethnic groups on Azure Star from the System Shop, which were then implanted into his mind.

Shang Buyu then spoke again at the opportune moment, "Who are you, sir? What brings you to the Thunder Sword Sect?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow, but instead of answering the girl's question, he asked, "Who are you? What era is this on Azure Star? And which country does this place belong to?"

Upon hearing this barrage of questions, Shang Buyu was immediately stunned.

These are questions that seem rather unusual for people of our time.

Azure Star has now entered the technological age, with the internet and online literature, including many works about time travel and reincarnation, which Shang Buyu has read a lot of.

Therefore, the questions asked by the handsome young man in front of her immediately made her realize that she might have encountered a time traveler from ancient times or from another dimension.

Looking at Zhou Chen's simple and elegant robe, the jade belt around his waist, and the golden crown that bound his long hair, it was clearly the attire of an ancient person from the Great Xia Dynasty!

Shang Buyu immediately realized that this handsome young man was a time traveler from the ancient Xia Dynasty.

According to the logic of online literature, as the first modern girl to come into contact with a time traveler, wouldn't she be... the female protagonist?

Thinking of this, Shang Buyu's heart immediately fluttered, and her face turned slightly red.

Looking at the shy and timid girl in front of him, Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but sigh that he was really too handsome.

Just from their first meeting, he turned a young girl into a devoted fan. How incredibly cool is that!

"Girl, wake up..."

Seeing the girl's somewhat infatuated expression, Zhou Chen had no choice but to wake her up.

After all, the girl hadn't answered his question yet.

"Ah, this..."

When Shang Buyu came to her senses, she immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at the handsome ancient youth in front of her.

The way she was so captivated by the boy's good looks was absolutely embarrassing!

For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Fortunately, Shang Buyu was thick-skinned. She quickly adjusted her mindset, took a deep breath, raised her head, looked directly at the handsome young man before her, and said solemnly, "I am Shang Buyu, greetings to your esteemed presence. The present era must be a very long time ago, far removed from the time in which you lived. According to the history of the martial arts world, we are now in an era of revival for martial arts."

After a pause, Shang Buyu continued, "And the place you are now in is located in the capital city of the Eastern Luo Continent Prefecture, Great Xuan Kingdom, Azure Xuan Prefecture City, at the foot of the Thunder Sword Sect."

It must be said that Shang Buyu's answer was very appropriate and detailed, giving Zhou Chen an immediate and intuitive understanding of the current situation.

She is a smart girl.

Zhou Chen gave Shang Buyu an approving look, then said indifferently, "I am Zhou Chen. Zhou as in the heavens, and Chen as in Star Dust."

Because the pronunciations of "chen" and "chen" are different in the Great Xia Language System of Azure Star, Shang Buyu immediately understood.

"Venerable Zhou Chen, are you a senior from the Profound Xia Ancient Dynasty?"

Shang Buyu said softly.

Although she felt that the young man in front of her was unlikely to be a Martial Venerable expert, let alone some old monster pretending to be young, she still addressed him with respectful titles such as "Your Excellency" or "Senior" to be on the safe side.

After all, she was the one who calculated the prophecy that "a martial arts master will descend from the heavens, bringing great fortune."

Upon hearing Shang Buyu's words, Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes.

Xuanxia?

Is this a dynasty from the history of the Azure Star?

This Shang Buyu believed that he was an ancient person from Xuanxia.

Shang Buyu's speculations were very advantageous to Zhou Chen.

Giving him the identity of an ancient person is very suitable for him to integrate into the Azure World.

After all, modern people can often accept people from ancient times, but if they encounter time travelers from another dimension, then people will have questions:

Is this time traveler here to invade our Azure Star?

Doubts lead to hostility.

The hostility of these native inhabitants of Azure Star made it difficult for them to plunder gold on the planet.

Their ancient identity could actually eliminate the hostility of the humans on Azure Star.

However, Zhou Chen was unfamiliar with the history of Azure Star, making it difficult to fabricate a convincing story about the identity of this Xuanxia person.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow and looked directly at Shang Buyu, saying, "I only know how to cultivate, regardless of the passage of time. You are quite clever, young lady, to have thought of Xuanxia."

"All the nations of the Eastern Xuan Continent are Emperor Xia. How could I, a mere woman, not know of their illustrious reputation?"

Shang Buyu cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said in a refined manner.

Just then, a sharp sound of something cutting through the air suddenly rang out, and in an instant, figures appeared in the forest.

These figures were, of course Yun Xin Yue and many disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect.

Just now, the Myriad Realms Shuttle Door descended from the sky with great fanfare, and Yun Xin Yue and the others naturally heard it and rushed over immediately.

However, Shang Buyu's room was located in a remote corner of Cloud-Thunder Mountain, quite far from the other people's rooms, so Yun Xin Yue and the others were unable to arrive immediately.

Zhou Chen looked around and immediately saw through the cultivation levels of these people.

These people are at least at the Soul Emperor level in the Douluo Plane, and the strongest one, a woman in a blue and gold dress, is actually at the level of a peak Soul Douluo.

The woman in the blue and gold dress possessed a classical elegance, as if she had stepped out of ancient times. Her features were beautiful, her eyes were cool and serene, and a gilded longsword hung at her waist, making her appear like a fairy descended to earth.

She is Yun Xin Yue.

Although the others also possessed a certain antiquity due to their martial arts cultivation, their aura was only meant to highlight Yun Xin Yue.

"Senior Sister Shang, how are you?"

????

Yun Xin Yue drew her sword in a flash, holding it in one hand to protect Shang Buyu. She turned her head slightly and asked with concern.

Meanwhile, Zhang Zhengdao, Li Zhengqi, Qin Ming, and other Great Martial Master level experts, along with the other disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect, all stood in front of Shang Buyu, protecting her.

Many disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect, whose cultivation level was only at the Martial Master level, actually took out guns, disregarding martial ethics.

The guns used to deal with martial artists were naturally not ordinary guns. These guns were all electromagnetic rifles with extremely high caliber, bullets, and muzzle velocity!

The energy of an electromagnetic rifle comes from an electromagnetic coil. When a strong current flows through the coil, the generated magnetic force will launch the ferromagnetic bullet. Its power is so great that it can directly penetrate steel plates and even penetrate the armor of some ordinary tanks!

Furthermore, this model of electromagnetic rifle is also equipped with high-magnification optical sights, holographic sights, and laser sights.

Even Great Martial Master could be severely injured or even killed on the spot if they were not careful when attacked by this Gang Qi rifle.

However, electromagnetic rifles are extremely expensive to manufacture and are currently only laboratory products of the Blue Tower Council. Even the special forces of the Great Xuan Kingdom have not been able to equip them on a large scale. The Righteous Qi Sect actually managed to get their hands on one. It truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient sect with a profound heritage that has been passed down through three dynasties.

Upon seeing the electromagnetic gun, Shang Buyu, who had been quite calm, immediately tensed up and hurriedly said, "Everyone, don't be so nervous. Put the gun down. Xinyue, sheath your sword too. Do you remember that prophecy from before?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Xin Yue and the others immediately recalled the prophecy that a Martial Venerable had descended from the heavens, bringing great fortune. They then all looked at the handsome young man in ancient robes before them.

Could it be... that this young man is the Martial Venerable expert who descended from the heavens in the prophecy?

Upon realizing this possibility, everyone present changed color.

Yun Xin Yue immediately sheathed her sword.

If the young man before her was truly a Martial Venerable, for her to dare to draw her sword and confront him would be a grave disrespect to the Venerable!

The disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect all pointed their electromagnetic rifles downwards and slung them behind their backs to show that they had no hostile intentions.

After all, an electromagnetic rifle is a small gadget that might be able to kill Great Martial Master, but using it against a Martial Venerable would be pure idiocy.

The Electromagnetic Rifle's power is only enough to shave a Martial Venerable expert's beard.

Therefore, if a Martial Venerable expert really wanted to kill them, it wouldn't matter whether they drew their swords or took their guns; they would all be instantly killed.

Seeing the tense atmosphere dissipate, Shang Buyu breathed a sigh of relief, leaned close to Yun Xin Yue's ear, and whispered everything that had just happened to her.

After hearing Shang Buyu's words, Yun Xin Yue frowned slightly, her thoughts racing. Then, her brows relaxed, she unfastened her sword, planted it in the ground, walked up to Zhou Chen, patted her chest, bowed respectfully, and said, "Yun Xin Yue the Thunder Sword Sect greets Your Excellency."

Get up.

With a casual wave of his hand, Zhou Chen sent a surge of powerful energy that lifted Yun Xin Yue, who had been bowing low, back to her feet.

Faced with this energy, Yun Xin Yue felt an overwhelming force, almost solidified, lifting her up. With her strength, she couldn't resist it at all and could only obediently straighten her back.

You have to understand, she's a top-tier Great Martial Master!

Even Martial Dao Grandmaster wouldn't be able to make her feel helpless with just a wave of his hand.

Only a Martial Venerable expert possesses such strength!

Sister Shang's divination skills are simply divine!

"If Your Excellency could grace my humble abode with your presence, the Thunder Sword Sect would be greatly honored."

Yun Xin Yue extended an invitation.

In her eyes, this martial arts master was an opportunity bestowed upon her by fate.

If she doesn't seize the opportunity quickly, she will regret it.

"Good."

Zhou Chen didn't say much and directly accepted Yun Xin Yue's invitation.

Anyway, he came to Azure Star to plunder gold. If he could make use of the Thunder Sword Sect, it would be much more convenient.

A moment later, inside Yun Xin Yue's room.

Zhou Chen sat on a large sofa, with Yun Xin Yue and Shang Buyu sitting opposite him.

Yun Xiaozhu stood to the side, serving tea and water.

As for the others, seeing that this esteemed gentleman enjoyed discussing life with the young lady, they all wisely returned to their respective rooms.

Yun Xin Yue stood with her legs together, leaned forward, and said respectfully, "Is there anything your Excellency needs the Thunder Sword Sect's assistance with?"

"Our Righteous Qi Sect is also willing to lend its full support."

Shang Buyu cupped his hands in greeting, then resolutely said.

Although the Righteous Qi Sect cultivates righteous energy, they are not stupid and naturally know how important it is to please this Martial Venerable expert.

"There really is something we need you to do."

Zhou Chen said calmly, "The world has changed too much. Compared to ancient times, it's like the sea turning into mulberry fields. Therefore, I need some books on history, culture, and what you call science, in order to understand the world today as quickly as possible."

"That's easy. Our Thunder Sword Sect has a special place to store books on history, culture, and other subjects."

Yun Xin Yue turned to look at Yun Xiaozhu and instructed, "Xiaozhu, go to the Book Collection Pavilion now and find all the books Your Majesty needs, then have the servants move them to the study."

"Should we move it to your study, sister?"

Yun Xiaozhu blinked her big, Mengmeng eyes and said.

"This..."

Yun Xin Yue blushed slightly, secretly annoyed that Xiaozhu was so clueless.

She certainly wanted to move those books to her own study so that Zhou Chen could live in her room and be with her day and night.

In that case, she could look forward to climbing onto the coattails of this Martial Venerable expert.

The problem is, how could you even ask that question?

At the crucial moment, Shang Buyu glared at Yun Xiaozhu and came to Yun Xin Yue's rescue, saying, "Xiaozhu, hurry up and go!"

Yun Xiaozhu realized that her words were inappropriate. Hearing Shang Buyu's reprimand, she immediately stuck out her tongue apologetically and quickly left the room, heading to the Book Collection Pavilion.

At this moment, Zhou Chen added, "I also need a real identity information."
