"We've finally arrived."
Shen Gongbao stood in front of Chaoge City, a hint of joy on his face.
After two days of non-stop flying, he finally arrived in Chaoge City before noon.
However, when he saw that Qiongxiao and Shiji beside him were barely breathing, Shen Gongbao's face darkened again.
"We can't wait any longer."
Shen Gongbao disregarded the fact that this was the capital of the Shang Dynasty. A powerful aura of a Golden Immortal suddenly erupted from his body, sweeping towards Chaoge City in front of him like a surging torrent.
"Who goes there? How dare you make a move in Chaoge! How insolent!"
"Who dares to make a move in the capital of my Shang Dynasty? They truly have no regard for their own lives!"
In an instant, a chorus of angry shouts rang out within Chaoge City.
Sensing Shen Gongbao's Golden Immortal aura, powerful auras suddenly rose from within Chaoge City.
Seeing this scene, the expression on the face of Qingxu Daode Zhenjun, who had been following Shen Gongbao not far behind, changed drastically:
"How can there be so many powerful figures in Chaoge City?"
Ju Liusun looked gloating:
"Shen Gongbao has stirred up a hornet's nest. I want to see if he will kneel down and beg for mercy when he is surrounded by so many powerful people."
The Boundless Immortal Elder between the two also wore a solemn expression, muttering to himself:
“Junior Brother Shen, you are too reckless. Although the human dynasty is not as powerful as the immortal holy land, it is not something that a mere Golden Immortal like you can provoke at will. It was fine when you were still a disciple of the Chan Sect, but now that you have left the sect, I cannot allow the Chan Sect to directly antagonize the Shang Dynasty for your sake.”
Shen Gongbao, of course, was unaware of the thoughts of the three people behind him. As powerful auras continued to rise from Chaoge, Shen Gongbao quickly discerned them, a smile immediately appearing on his face. He laughed loudly:
"I am Shen Gongbao, and I have come today to pay my respects to Grand Tutor Wen Zhong of the current dynasty. I apologize for any inconvenience caused, fellow Daoists!"
"So you're looking for Grand Tutor Wen. I knew it! How could a Golden Immortal suddenly descend upon the capital of our Shang Dynasty? Looking for Grand Tutor Wen makes perfect sense!"
"Haha, our Grand Tutor Wen has such a wide circle of friends. Any fellow Daoist who visits him is a Golden Immortal. How can we worry about the prosperity of our Shang Dynasty?"
As soon as Shen Gongbao said this, the aura of power that had just risen in Chaoge City instantly subsided, and even before dissipating, it conveyed a series of goodwill gestures to Shen Gongbao.
Who is Wen Zhong?
He was a veteran of three reigns of the Shang Dynasty, the Grand Tutor entrusted by King Zhou to the care of his son, a being with divine eyes on his forehead who could discern evil from wickedness, and a figure who held a golden whip to intimidate the court and the people.
Could Grand Tutor Wen's friend be a villain?
That's impossible!
Inside the Grand Tutor's mansion, Wen Zhong was instantly startled upon hearing Shen Gongbao's voice.
Shen Gongbao, he had met him once before in the Jade Void Palace, and he still had some impression of this outcast of the Jade Void Palace.
But his reaction was so strong because Qiongxiao had already informed him of their encounter via a flying sword message.
First, he rescued Qiongxiao several times, then he personally killed the Chan Sect disciples who had tried to harm Qiongxiao and Shiji, and later he traveled thousands of miles to bring the two, who were seriously injured and on the verge of death, to Chaoge.
From any perspective, Shen Gongbao was a great benefactor of their Jie Sect.
"Open the gates to welcome our distinguished guests!"
Wen Zhong's calm voice resounded throughout the Grand Tutor's mansion.
The next moment, the gates of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, which had not been opened even when King Zhou himself was present, slowly opened to both sides.
What's going on?
"Just who is this person? How could Grand Tutor Wen treat him with such courtesy?"
Inside Chaoge City, the auras of powerful figures that had just subsided began to resurface as they watched the Grand Tutor's Mansion slowly open its gates.
As the Grand Tutor of the Shang Dynasty, Wen Zhong was not someone an ordinary Golden Immortal would need to treat with such courtesy.
Could that person also be a highly accomplished disciple of the Xuanmen sect?
Otherwise, an ordinary Golden Immortal wouldn't be able to accept such courtesy from Wen Zhong, would he?
But the next moment, they were completely shocked.
At the Grand Tutor's mansion, the black Qilin emerged from the clouds. However, just as the Qilin reached a short distance from Shen Gongbao, Wen Zhong unexpectedly rose and dismounted, respectfully performing a junior's salute before Shen Gongbao.
"Wen Zhong, a disciple of the Jie Sect, greets Martial Uncle Shen Gongbao!"
"boom!"
"What exactly is going on? Who is that person?"
"Wen Zhong actually called him 'Master Uncle,' just who is he?"
Many people present knew Wen Zhong's true identity; besides being the Grand Tutor of the Shang Dynasty, he was also a disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother of the Jie Sect.
Who is the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit?
That was a direct disciple of a sage.
With such a status, what level of existence is it that can be called "Uncle-Master" by Wen Zhong?
Shen Gongbao waved his hand:
"Time is of the essence, are you ready?"
Looking at Qiongxiao and Shiji, who were barely breathing beside Shen Gongbao, Wen Zhong's eyes were filled with worry:
“Uncle Wudang has already set up a great formation in my Grand Tutor’s mansion, and now we are just waiting for you to arrive.”
"good!"
Now, Shen Gongbao could only place all his hopes on the Holy Mother of Wudang. With a flash, Shen Gongbao led Qiongxiao and the other two quickly toward the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
Just as Wen Zhong was about to follow, he heard a kind and friendly voice coming from behind him:
“Fellow Daoist Wen Zhong, I am Wuliang Xianweng of the Chan Sect. I have come with my junior brothers Qingxu Daode Zhenjun and Julusun to visit my junior sister Wudang. I hope you can introduce us.”
The usually kind and gentle voice of the Immortal Wuliang sounded incredibly grating to Wen Zhong's ears.
"I'm sorry, my Uncle Wudang has distinguished guests to entertain today, so it's inconvenient for me to see you!"
Having said that, Wen Zhong completely disregarded the terrifyingly gloomy expressions of the three immortals and mounted the black Qilin.
"This is outrageous!"
Watching Wen Zhong's departing figure, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun's eyes were practically spitting fire.
Ju Liusun's voice was icy cold:
"A mere third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect dares to show us such disrespect! Truly a fine disciple trained by the Jie Sect. If such a disciple doesn't make it onto the Investiture of the Gods, who will?"
At this moment, the expression on the face of the Boundless Immortal was also not very good.
He was already giving Wen Zhong a lot of face by calling him "fellow Daoist".
Who knew that not only was he ungrateful, but he also refused to help them meet the Holy Mother of Wudang, which completely showed that he didn't take the three of them seriously.
Suppressing his anger, Wuliang Immortal looked at Qingxu Moral True Lord and the other, and said, his anger barely contained:
"Since Wen Zhong is unwilling to meet us, then let's go pay a visit to the current Human Emperor. I want to see if the prestige of our Chan Sect is truly useless."
Upon hearing this, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun and the other person were overjoyed.
Their Chan Sect claims to follow the mandate of Heaven, and this is no empty boast. From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors onward, the shadow of their Chan Sect can be seen behind countless human emperors.
This is also why their junior brother Jiang Ziya came out of seclusion this time.
But this is not a reason for the Shang dynasty to disrespect them.
