"Qingyan, I'm going too." Kong Yan suddenly shouted, "I'd like to see what this peerless prodigy actually looks like, whether he truly possesses the divine might the rumors claim."
She clearly admired Gu Shenyu deeply, and instinctively began comparing them.
Gu Qingyan shook her head and smiled faintly. "Yanyan, there's no need. His junior brother already said that his senior brother does not wish to be disturbed by outsiders."
"If that's the case, then why does the entire Primordial Academy already know?!"
A trace of displeasure flashed through Kong Yan's eyes. Why were these Fushi Sect disciples so unreliable in their dealings? "Prodigies from our academy already wish to deliver him challenge letters on the snowfield."
"Qingyan, even the Martial Fool has been stirred." A woman showed a trace of concern. "Who knows what he intends to do."
That Dao Fool of Primordial Academy had once made even Gu Shenyu suffer greatly. Wholeheartedly devoted to the Dao, heartless and ruthless, no one even knew what race he was. In any case, he was not one of the Otherworldly Spirits.
Only the old scholars of Primordial Academy knew this man's origins.
He had escaped from the Myriad Tribulations Time-Sand and traveled through the major Heavenly Domains in pursuit of the Dao of all races, only to be beaten senseless by demons and devils, left black-and-blue and fleeing in utter disarray. He had relied on some of his foundations to barely preserve his life.
In the end, he had been rescued by an old scholar of Primordial Academy. Yet no one knew when he might leave again; only Primordial Academy could tolerate such a free-spirited figure.
And his name was—
Ancient Immortal!
Most bizarrely, he had no Spiritual Root... yet he had defied the heavens by entering the Dao through martial arts.
