"Yun He, Luo Feng."
The Chaos City Lord strolled toward them across the river's surface. He smiled and asked, "You're back?"
"Teacher." Yun He and Luo Feng hurriedly bowed in greeting.
The Chaos City Lord nodded with a smile, his eyes calm and serene.
This avatar of his, stationed in the Primal Secret Region, was also a special lifeform. Over a thousand feelers covered his head, and his skin gleamed silver-white.
He stood over ten thousand kilometers tall, though he had now shrunk to roughly the same size as Yun He and Luo Feng.
"I saw you two standing here after coming back. What were you talking about?" the Chaos City Lord asked.
"Nothing much. It's been a long time since I last saw Luo Feng, so we were just chatting and catching up," Yun He said with a smile.
"It's only been a little over two thousand years since you last met, hasn't it? You're still young, so that feels like a long time. Gradually, you'll discover that a million years, even ten million years, pass in the blink of an eye," the Chaos City Lord said wistfully.
"Uh..." Yun He and Luo Feng exchanged a look, at a loss for words.
They were both old fellows over ten thousand years old, and he still called them young? Luo Feng had so many generations of descendants that even he had lost count. He was far beyond a great-great-great-great-grandfather.
Still, it was hardly surprising. In the eyes of a being like the Chaos City Lord, someone just over ten thousand years old was indeed young and immature.
"You'll understand in time." The Chaos City Lord shook his head, then looked at Yun He with a trace of anticipation. "How much did you gain on this trip?"
"Heh, quite a bit.
