When Uchiha Yuzhen came back to his senses, the first thing he saw was a handsome man chatting amiably with his clone.
The man wore his hair in a single ponytail, had a composed expression, and was dressed in clothing somewhat resembling a doctor's white coat.
Beside him stood Jewel Old Man, his expression slightly grave.
The instant Yuzhen appeared, his clone, Jewel Old Man, and the handsome ponytailed man all turned their gazes toward him.
The clone was the most straightforward of them all. Upon seeing the original body return, he simply willed it and dispersed, turning into a stream of chakra that returned to the original.
Once the clone's chakra merged into him, Yuzhen, having received all its information, smiled at the handsome ponytailed man below and said:
"You must be the King of Men, Goetia... My apologies. I was invited by the Venerable just now, so I had my clone receive you instead. Please forgive the discourtesy."
Goetia did not dare put on airs in response to Yuzhen's apologetic words.
He hurriedly replied, "You are overthinking it, sir. While responding to those Transcendent Gods, you still sent a clone to receive me..."
"I am very satisfied with that gesture."
As he spoke, Goetia extended his hand.
"Your clone said earlier that, as a clone, he could not properly offer a formal greeting."
"Now that you are the original body, I assume this modern etiquette will not be a problem!"
There was nothing to hesitate over. Yuzhen directly shook Goetia's hand and extracted the Affixes related to humanity from him.
