"Huh?"

The sudden appearance of Shen Xuzi momentarily stunned the two Daoists, Jiemie, as they had not expected an old man to show up at this juncture.

Moreover, looking at the old man, he seemed quite strong, which was somewhat unexpected.

"Fellow Daoist, may we inquire into your intentions?" Uncertain of Shen Xuzi’s strength, Jiemie and his companion did not dare to act rashly.

They knew very well that this was not the Immortal Realm, and for those like them, immortals of the Primordial Nine Heavens, it was difficult to come to the Lower Realm.

Even for the two of them, it was under the meticulous planning of the Venerable One above them that they managed to come to the Lower Realm. Despite this, they couldn’t afford to stay in this realm for too long.

Looking at the old man across from them, it seemed he had been residing in this world for a long time, and he seemed to be subject to few restrictions from the laws of Heaven and Earth.

At the very least, he must be a powerful figure native to this world. He might even be an existence who has obtained a celestial fate.

An existence that has obtained a celestial fate!

Jiemie and his companion were well aware that in this world, there existed ancient beings of great power. Such beings were not to be trifled with, not even by the mighty beings behind them. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Their fear now was that Shen Xuzi was one of these beings. If that were the case, their mission would indeed be difficult.

Shen Xuzi said, "Are you referring to me? I’m merely a drifter in this world, not worthy of your appellations."

Having said this, his tone suddenly changed, and he coldly retorted,

"As for you two, the Three Realms have not yet opened, and yet you dare to descend to the Lower Realm. Have you forgotten certain rules?"

At this moment, Shen Xuzi appeared to be full of dominance, a stark contrast to his previous sly demeanor. It was unclear what the two immortals who had descended from the Lower Realm had done to provoke him.

Rules?

It was not known what had happened to Shen Xuzi, but one thing was certain; when his words were spoken, the expressions of Jiemie’s duo changed noticeably, becoming much more severe.

Obviously, they knew what the rules Shen Xuzi was referring to were!

The two of them immediately asked, "May we ask who the senior is?"

"Senior, we had no choice but to descend to the Lower Realm and we have some karmic debts to resolve. We hope the senior can turn a blind eye and allow us to carry out our actions in this world."

"Afterward, we will definitely come to offer our apologies with generous gifts."

Undisclosed descent from the Immortal Realm before the opening of the Three Realms is a great taboo, a prohibition among many ancient beings.

The reason they chose this time and place to descend was precisely to swiftly resolve the situation and avoid being discovered by those ancient beings.

However, despite their careful planning, the two did not expect to encounter such a powerful existence within their encirclement. It could only be described as the most unfortunate case of bad luck!

At this point, they had no choice but to confront the situation. All they could hope for was that the being in front of them would give them face and allow them to resolve their karmic ties, promising to apologize afterward.

"I am not your senior." Shen Xuzi shook his head.

"Don’t worry, although I despise you, I am not who you think I am."

"However, I am in a bad mood today, so I will have to vent my frustrations on you two. Do you have any objections?"

Shen Xuzi was lying. His mood was not bad today; it was very good. After all, for the first time in a while, he had regained his immortal strength, which was a cause for great joy.

The simple reason for his confrontation with the two Daoists, Jiemie, was Chen Chang’an’s promise.

"Kid, remember your words. Once these two are taken care of, you will give me your Chaos Immortal King Method. Don’t try to trick me!"

"Don’t worry, old man. As long as you take care of these two, not to mention the Immortal King Method, I’ll even give you the Six Daos of Reincarnation!" Chen Chang’an said.

That’s right, the reason Shen Xuzi dared to take such a risk was Chen Chang’an.

As soon as Jiemie and his companion showed up, Chen Chang’an sought Shen Xuzi’s help, offering to teach him the Immortal King Method he had displayed in the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion, in exchange for his help.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuzi’s eyes lit up. The Immortal King Method was something he truly desired!

"Kid, you’re not deceiving me, are you?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Chen Chang’an responded with a firm gaze.

"Alright, I’ll take this deal!"

Thus, an agreement was reached, this was also why Shen Xuzi was so assertive now.

At their level, regular Daoist methods hardly offer any further improvement. Methods like the Immortal King Method Chen Chang’an used are no longer ordinary but exceptional. If they could comprehend even a small portion of it, they might experience a breakthrough in their stagnant realm.

This was a major matter, an unprecedented one.

Shen Xuzi had been lying low for so long, staying for countless years in that dark, secluded space, all for the ultimate transcendence, hadn’t he?

Now that the opportunity had arisen, he was definitely not going to let it get away!

It could only be said that Jiemie and his companion were unlucky to have run into Shen Xuzi who was in full-on beast mode. They deserved their bad luck.

"Senior, are you really not going to give us face?"
