At the seats.
Heavenly Wheel Immortal Elder was unusually somber today. He lifted his eyes and gave Ji Yan a long look.
It had to be said, this lad truly suited that old thief's tastes. No wonder they were fellow Daoists who had risen together from humble beginnings. These two had quite a story...
Back when they had wandered the Primordial River, he remembered that old thief speaking of many things, many ideas.
Chen Xun had wanted to be able to descend upon every corner of the Three Thousand Great Worlds from the Primordial River at any time. At the very least, he would no longer be schemed against by the Boundless Overlord Clan, nor would they keep their eyes fixed on the Desolate Heaven Domain.
But too many things had happened afterward, causing many of his plans to die without ever coming to fruition.
Yet he remembered that Ji Yan had not boarded the ship back then. And today, he had unexpectedly arrived at the same conclusion as that old thief's former ideas. His grasp of the greater picture was enough to make one's heart tremble. Even Heavenly Wheel Immortal Elder could not help but admire that ability to integrate countless pieces of information and continue deducing from them.
Anyone could make guesses, but one who truly dared to reach such conclusions—and was prepared to flex his muscles on a grand scale—possessed true great courage.

Ji Yan smiled faintly. How could he not know what World-Crosser had been doing in the Six Harmonies Immortal Domain these past years, and what he had been worrying about? The shadow cast by the great war of the Three Thousand Immortal Domains still lingered in his heart to this day.
But in the next instant, his expression quietly turned grave.
