The newcomer was Luo Jin, accompanied by the young Jin Chanzi.
These two had been watching for who knows how long, and Yang Zhen had already spotted them. It was too late for him to leave.
Luo Jin and Jin Chanzi exchanged bewildered glances.
We've been looking for you for so long, we never expected to find you here!
Luo Jin wore a warm smile, just like a friendly older brother next door, no wonder the young women throughout the Western Region admired him so much.
However, judging solely from appearance, Yang Zhen thinks Jin Chanzi is more handsome than Luo Jin, but what can you do when Jin Chanzi is a Zen practitioner?
Yang Zhen grinned and said, "Yeah, I'm here, but unlike you guys, I can't just climb straight to the top of Mount Xiyuan. You see, even if I want to go and see the excitement, I have to achieve it step by step through my own efforts."
Luo Jin laughed heartily, exchanged a glance with Jin Chanzi, and said, "If Brother Yang wants to climb to the Mount Xiyuan, there's no need for such trouble. Just tell me, and I can take you up there."
Lin Ruochu was delighted, clearly not expecting that Yang Zhen and Luo Jin had such a good relationship.
"I never expected that Young Master Yang would be so highly regarded by Young Master Luo. If we had known this earlier, why would we have gone through all this trouble?"
A hint of joy appeared on Elder Guo's face as he stood in front of Yang Zhen and spoke.
Lin Ruochu nodded, bowed to Luo Jin, and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Young Master Luo."
Luo Jin seemed quite pleased, looking at Yang Zhen with a half-smile, and said with a smile, "Of course, of course, I'll arrange it for you right away. Speaking of which, you truly deserve it."
And so everyone was happy, except for Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat.
"Kid, I'm not one to stir up trouble. Look at the expression on Luo Jin's face; he clearly sees you as a junior."
The Shameless Cat jumped around and made punching motions, while egging them on, saying, "And that Old Man Guo and that girl Lin, they're obviously trying to suck up to someone powerful."
Yang Zhen glanced at the Shameless Cat and said, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
"How could there be no one here?"
The Shameless Cat glared at her and said, "If I don't speak, I almost think I've become mute. So what are you planning to do next? Just obediently follow orders?"
"Otherwise what?"
Yang Zhen shrugged, a nonchalant expression on his face, and said, "Something big is about to happen, who cares about this?"
The Shameless Cat stared at Yang Zhen in disbelief, a look of hesitation on its face, before it became excited and muttered to itself, "Damn it, every time you try to keep a low profile, you're up to something big. You think you can fool me? No way!"
At the Mount Xiyuan, there was once a desolate land. It is said that a powerful Emperor Venerable once Dao Severing here. As Lightning Tribulation struck the ground, the entire mountain range was blasted into a living Purgatory, its appearance completely changed.
Now, countless years have passed, and the Mount Xiyuan remains barren, filled with a desolate atmosphere.
The largest number of cultivators were gathered at the Mount Xiyuan in the entire Western Origin Mountain Range at this time.
Yang Zhen was assigned to the western part of the Mount Xiyuan. Although the area was barren and did not seem like a place where Savage Wilderness treasure was about to be born, Lin Ruochu and the others were already quite satisfied.
"I never expected to actually see Mr. Luo Jin in person!"
Lin Ruochu's face showed a hint of joy, which made Yang Zhen purse his lips.
Ah, women!
Even a saint can't escape the problem of being a lovesick fool!
Isn't this handsome guy more Sage of Saunter than Luo Jin?
"It is said that Young Master Luo is leading several thousand people, declaring that he is irreconcilably opposed to the Devil Cultivator, and even intends to personally kill Chen Xiaotian. I wonder if Chen Xiaotian dares to come. There are many Devil Cultivator, but this is, after all, the Mount Xiyuan, and the location of the Western Region Holy Assembly Alliance. No matter how arrogant the Devil Cultivator are, they wouldn't dare to come here, would they?"
Upon hearing Lin Ruochu's words, Elder Guo hesitated for a moment, then said, " Chen Xiaotian is the Devil Venerable Lord, his status and position are unmatched, and he is a legendary figure in the Devil Domain. Killing Chen Xiaotian will probably not be easy, and..."
At this point, Elder Guo said with concern, "Moreover, the location of the Demonic Sect has now been discovered in the Western Region. Countless Devil Cultivator have come from the Devil Domain to the Main Realm. If the rumors are true, then the Western Region Holy Assembly Alliance will likely be in serious trouble."
Lin Ruochu nodded and said, "However, since ancient times, the demonic path has never prevailed over the righteous path. Even in the Savage Wilderness era 30,000 years ago, the Demonic Sect was eventually sealed away. Elder Guo, there's no need to worry too much. Young Master Luo and Jin Chanzi will handle everything."
Yang Zhen nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, the Western Region Holy Assembly Alliance has several thousand people following Luo Jin. This kid... this young master will definitely be able to turn the tide. Perhaps, with us as witnesses, he will personally kill Chen Xiaotian and create a legend."
The Shameless Cat chuckled to itself.
Lin Ruochu's eyes lit up, and she said, "Young Master Yang also thinks that Luo Jin can do it?"
"Yeah, if he can't do it, who can?" Yang Zhen said nonchalantly. "Several thousand people, such a large alliance, just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle."
Elder Guo chuckled and said, "What you said is not wrong."
As dusk approached, the sky was dotted with stars, and under the endless night sky, countless cultivators were unable to sleep.
Everyone was discussing tomorrow's events, gathering in small groups of two or three. Of course, the groups of two were mostly men and women, engaging in in-depth conversations and discussing the big things that would happen tomorrow.
Countless things happened that night, but no matter what happened, it couldn't mask the heavy atmosphere under the sky.
Such a solemn celestial phenomenon was nothing like an ordinary night.
Yang Zhen lay on the roof, gazing at the starry sky, and said, "Do you think anyone has ever successfully broken through the atmosphere?"
The Shameless Cat was taken aback and asked, "What is the atmosphere?"
Yang Zhen pointed to the ground and said, "Look, the continent we live on is actually a sphere. Outside this sphere is an atmosphere, which is the Main Realm environment on which all things depend for survival. Beyond that is the cosmic starry sky, where there are countless planets."
The Shameless Cat looked stunned and hesitated before saying, "Damn it, after hearing you say that, I feel like going to see what kind of desolate world lies outside the atmosphere."
"There's a chance!"
Yang Zhen nodded, and was about to speak when a sinister and terrifying wind began to blow from the Mount Xiyuan, under the vast sky.
Countless people looked up, glancing in all directions, their faces filled with utter astonishment.
This eerie and terrifying wind acted like a catalyst, activating the entire night sky.
Yang Zhen jumped up from the roof, looked north, and muttered to himself, "It's about to begin!"
The Shameless Cat its eyes, about to speak, when Lin Ruochu's voice came. "Young Master Yang, let's go take a look. Perhaps Young Luo Jin and the others have already found the place where the Savage Wilderness treasure is buried."
Yang Zhen nodded, muttering to himself, "That young master Luo Jin of yours is probably in trouble."
Along with the eerie and terrifying breeze, faint wisps of demonic energy filled the air.
Yang Zhen had no idea what kind of epic battle was about to unfold, but he could foresee that Luo Jin's few thousand men seemed to be no match for them.
Seeing the sparkle in Lin Ruochu's eyes, Yang Zhen grinned, jumped down from the roof, and said, "Okay, let's go take a look!"
