Wudao, I am Your Grandpa

Gu Xian'er was still in a white dress, but her entire demeanor had undergone a sea change.

The elegant aura she once possessed was gone, replaced by a more dazzling and captivating presence.

While her appearance hadn't drastically changed, it had become noticeably more refined.

The more this was the case, the more frustrated Xuan Wudao became!

Chen Changan! How dare you?

"Xian'er thanks Young Master for the grace of rebirth."

Although Gu Xian'er appeared calm on the surface, only she knew the excitement churning within her.

The Phoenix Immortal Body, a powerful physique that countless people dreamed of, and Gu Xian'er never expected to awaken such a potent constitution.

Not only had her cultivation instantly surged to the peak of the ninth level of the True Qi Realm, but a cultivation technique that perfectly complemented her physique had also appeared in her mind.

Chen Changan looked at Gu Xian'er, clearly surprised as well. This could perhaps be considered a pleasant surprise.

"This is your own fortune."

"Not everyone has the chance to awaken such a physique."

"Perhaps it's related to your ancestors. Does your Gu Family... have any clan records or anything similar?"

"Did any strong individuals appear in your ancestral lineage?" Chen Changan asked curiously.

"This... I don't know about that."

As a woman, even if such clan records existed, Gu Xian'er wouldn't have access to them.

"Never mind, it's already happened. No need to investigate too thoroughly."

"Is it the Phoenix Immortal Body?"

"Replying to Young Master, it is indeed the Phoenix Immortal Body. Furthermore, a cultivation technique named the Phoenix True Art has appeared in my mind."

"It should be a technique only the Phoenix Immortal Body can cultivate!"

Hmm? She even has a cultivation technique?

This made Chen Changan even more surprised, but it was for the best. Otherwise, he hadn't figured out what technique to impart to Gu Xian'er.

"Since that's the case, then you should contend for this Human Ranking."

The Human Ranking had only recently opened, with a total duration of three years. Although Gu Xian'er's start was a bit late, with the awakening of the Phoenix Immortal Body and the Phoenix True Art, she should have no trouble making the list within three years.

The Human Ranking?

Gu Xian'er looked at Chen Changan in surprise. This matter was known throughout the Great Profound Realm.

Yet, Gu Xian'er had never imagined that she would participate, let alone have the chance to compete for a ranking.

"Young Master, can I... really do it?" Gu Xian'er clearly lacked confidence in herself.

"You are the Phoenix Immortal Body. Perhaps only one appears in the Great Profound Realm every tens of thousands of years."

"If you can't, who can?" Chen Changan said with a smile.

"Alright, since Young Master commands it, then Xian'er will go and contend for this Human Ranking."

Gu Xian'er took a deep breath, her heart having set a firm goal. She absolutely would not let Chen Changan down.

She was determined to fight for a spot on the Human Ranking.

"Someone's coming. Should we leave now, or what?" Xuan Wudao asked Chen Changan.

The commotion earlier had been too great. Anyone with some power in Langya Yun Chuan would naturally want to investigate the situation.

Chen Changan looked at Xuan Wudao with a hint of confusion. Had this kid been a beggar for too long, now wanting to hide from everyone he saw?

Had he developed some kind of trauma?

"You weren't the type to run away from trouble back then."

"And now you're asking a question like this?" Chen Changan said with a smile.

Hearing Chen Changan's words, Xuan Wudao was also taken aback. That's right, when had he ever run from anyone?

"Damn it, it's all because of you! For these three thousand years, I've wanted to hide from everyone I meet, terrified of running into someone I know."

"Back in the day, I..."

"Enough, stop reminiscing about the past. Let's see who's coming."

"I want to see what they want when they get here."

Chen Changan, whether he had no cultivation back then or could cultivate now, had never been someone who feared trouble. After all, he couldn't die.

Most importantly, how could he join in the excitement if he was afraid of trouble?

Before he finished speaking, several figures were rapidly flying towards Huan Hua Tower not far away.

There weren't many people around Huan Hua Tower at the moment, and the three of them standing there were quite conspicuous.

"Have you been here all along?"

"What just happened here?"

After one person flew over, they looked at Chen Changan and the other two and asked with an arrogant expression.

"Hmm?"

"Our Sect Master is asking you a question, are you mute?"

Seeing that Chen Changan and the other two didn't reply, one of them immediately glared, their eyes filled with ferocity.

"Kneel down and speak!"

Xuan Wudao's expression sank, and a powerful aura erupted from his body.

Facing Xuan Wudao's aura, the person directly knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with terror.

"I… I didn't know Senior was here, I have offended you greatly, please forgive me."

"Senior, we have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, we are… we are…"

Before the other party could finish speaking, Xuan Wudao let out a cold snort. The other party immediately broke out in a cold sweat, their body slumping to the ground, unable to utter a single word.

"Who are you? What business is it of mine."

"Get lost quickly!"

With that, Xuan Wudao waved his hand, and these people were directly sent flying.

"Damn it, with just this much skill, they're even more pretentious than me," Xuan Wudao said disdainfully.

"This is Langya. There aren't many strong individuals to begin with, let alone in a place like Yun Chuan."

"The strongest here is at most in the Spirit Transformation Realm, not even as good as you were in your youth," Chen Changan said with a faint smile.

"I say, what's the point of this?"

"Are you asking me to be your thug here?"

"Why bother with these people? Why don't we just leave?" Xuan Wudao said helplessly.

"You acted too quickly."

"I originally wanted to ask something."

"Now look, you scared everyone away."

Chen Changan also smiled helplessly. As soon as Xuan Wudao unleashed his aura, everyone who had originally wanted to come and investigate the situation turned around and fled. Hesitation would have been disrespectful to Xuan Wudao.

"Ask something? What did you want to ask?" Xuan Wudao asked curiously.

"It's nothing, just some personal matters."

Chen Changan shook his head and didn't answer.

The main purpose of coming to Langya this time was, after all, to find the Fetal Pearl.

The exact location of the Chen Family in Langya back then was not clearly recorded in the family archives. However, if they asked some elders, they might have heard of the Chen Family.

It's just that Langya is too vast, and Chen Changan didn't know how strong the Chen Family was back then. If they were ordinary, it might be difficult to inquire.

"So, you came to Langya this time for some personal matters?"

"Yes, so I might have to stay in Langya for a while longer. What about you?"

Hearing this, Xuan Wudao suddenly felt a sense of confusion. He had been begging for three thousand years, wandering for three thousand years.

Now that he was finally free, he didn't know what he should do.

"Guess what I'm going to do?" Xuan Wudao asked Chen Changan.

Guess?

Chen Changan looked at Xuan Wudao as if he were an idiot. You expect me to guess?

"Uh… cough, cough, just kidding, just kidding."

"Forget it, it's been three thousand years, I should go back and take a look."

"I wonder if the people in the sect still remember me." Xuan Wudao said with a faint smile.

"Alright, stop being sentimental."

"Your father is the Grand Elder of the Wuji Sect, do you think he would forget you?" Chen Changan said disdainfully.

Huh?

"Holy crap, how do you know who my father is?"

"Not many people in the Wuji Sect know about this," Xuan Wudao looked at Chen Changan in shock. How does this kid know everything?

Chen Changan looked at Xuan Wudao, a mischievous smile appearing on his face, and said in a low voice, "Go home and ask your dad."

"There's something I actually never told you."

"Back then, your dad was chasing after me, wanting to become sworn brothers."

"Wudao, I, I almost became your grand-uncle."

Grand-uncle?

"Chen Changan, you bastard, you're taking advantage of me!"

"Don't believe me? Go home and ask your dad!"
