Martial Master

Three people entered Cang Xuan City.

"Old Kong, it seems that your Gu Zhong Sect's status in Cang Xuan City is indeed not impressive, huh?" Walking on the main street of Cang Xuan City, Qin Chen smiled slightly.

"Chen Shao... this really makes you laugh..." Shang Gu Kong's old face turned red immediately. The dignified ancestor of Gu Zhong Sect was actually stopped by a guard at the mid-stage of the Human Saint Realm in Cang Xuan City. It must be said that it was indeed somewhat embarrassing.

Even though Shang Gu Kong changed his appearance, Qin Tingting was still the senior disciple of Gu Zhong Sect, and his and Qin Chen's disguised identities were also the Supreme Elders of Gu Zhong Sect, yet they were still stopped. How could this not indicate the current predicament of Gu Zhong Sect?

The dignified Supreme Elder was stopped by a mere gatekeeper. This was simply disgraceful, as anyone could step on Gu Zhong Sect.

Looking at Shang Gu Kong's awkward old face, Qin Chen smiled slightly and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, such things will not happen again in the future. With this Young Master here, it won't be long before Gu Zhong Sect's people can walk proudly in Cang Xuan City, and anyone who sees them will have to show respect and dare not humiliate them."

Qin Chen spoke very casually, but Shang Gu Kong felt a jolt in his spirit. Wasn’t this also his dream?

He recalled countless years ago when he was the head of Gu Zhong Sect. Wasn't this his original aspiration?

However, so many years had passed, and time had worn away his sharp edges, gradually making him understand the cruelty of reality.

But at this moment, when these words came out of Qin Chen's mouth, Shang Gu Kong felt a surge of blood boiling.

Staying true to one's original intention is easy to say but hard to do!

"Chen Shao..." Shang Gu Kong's tone trembled slightly, this old man even had tears shimmering at the corners of his eyes.

If Qin Chen could truly do this, even if he sold his life to Qin Chen, what would it matter?

Qin Chen smiled lightly, walking in Cang Xuan City. On both sides of the street, there were shops and restaurants everywhere, and the wide street was bustling with martial artists coming and going.

It was a scene of prosperity, most of these martial artists were in the Human Saint Realm, although the vast majority were just at the early or mid-stage, it could be said that the place was filled with Saint Realm experts.

Qin Chen glanced over, and those shops and restaurants were extremely grand, carved with countless runes and restrictions, their magnificent aura was astonishing.

The street was very wide, with a dazzling array of goods displayed. In addition to restaurants, there were also tea houses, medicine shops, cultivation shops, alchemy halls, and holy weapon shops... each towering into the clouds, bustling with people.

It was no wonder that this place could give birth to many experts; indeed, it was a holy land for cultivating powerful beings.

"Fresh phoenix liver, freshly killed phoenix liver, from the Demon Clan's Tianran Ancient Phoenix, a Saint-level phoenix, captured from the demon clan, come take a look!"

At the entrance of a tall restaurant, a phoenix engulfed in flames lay at the doorway, guarded by several experts. Streams of phoenix blood flowed, and flames soared into the sky.

This phoenix had been eviscerated, its liver taken out, steaming hot, being advertised.

This was today's signature dish of the restaurant, displayed at the entrance to attract customers. These top-tier restaurants would have special dishes for sale every day.

"A Saint-level phoenix..." Qin Chen was shocked. Such an ancient phoenix could dominate a continent if it were in the lower realm, but in the upper realm, it was treated like livestock, slaughtered, and placed on the chopping board—truly naked and brutal.

However, having seen the collection of Gu Zhong Sect, Qin Chen knew that in the upper realm, the demon clan and human clan were two different races, occupying different regions, and there were often conflicts, unlike in the Tian Wu Continent where humans occupied the mainstream and Blood Beasts hardly posed any threat to them.
