The reason the three top-tier forces' Venerables appeared in the Southern Heaven Realm was to investigate the recent incident where the Void Tide Sea's Demon Corpse Ancestor was pursuing the human race's young talents, wanting to uncover the background of that young man.
However, despite their efforts, they ultimately could not find the other party, even making Zhuge Laozu perform calculations, yet still yielding nothing.
Little did they expect that they would see the mysterious divine furnace that had previously appeared in the Void Sea here.
Could this person be the genius pursued by the Demon Corpse Ancestor?
All three Venerables' gazes fell on Qin Chen, their eyes blazing with intensity, radiating divine rainbows.
Under the watchful eyes of the three, although Qin Chen looked disheveled, he bore an extraordinary posture, surrounded by terrifying rules and divine rainbows, his demeanor impressive. This aura was frightening, and although Qin Chen was merely at the later stage of the Saint Master Realm, it brought a sense of tremor to the three Venerables.
This child is extraordinary! This thought simultaneously arose in the hearts of the three Venerables.
Then, their gazes shifted to Zhuge Rulong and Qingxue Guhua. Upon seeing Zhuge Rulong, their anger surged.
"Zhuge Rulong actually calculated something, yet kept it from us."
The three Venerables were furious. With their sharp eyes, they immediately discerned that Zhuge Rulong was targeting Qin Chen and the others, and their hearts were certain that Zhuge Rulong must have calculated something; otherwise, it would not be so coincidental for him to act against Qin Chen and his group.
"Greetings to the three Venerables."
Seeing the newcomers, Qingxue Guhua immediately cupped his hands.
He was also a Venerable, and the ancestor of a top force in the Southern Heaven Realm, but compared to the three top-tier forces' Venerables, his status still fell short.
"It’s no problem."
Jiu Yu Venerable waved his hand, fixing his gaze on Qin Chen, then looking at Zhuge Rulong, coldly snorted, "Zhuge Laozu, what a coincidence, meeting here. I wonder what happened here that you do not need to explain to us?"
Jiu Yu Venerable’s expression was displeased as he coldly laughed.
Zhuge Rulong's heart sank; this was troublesome. He did not expect to see the three Venerables here. It was evident they had guessed some things, but he was also very straightforward. His gaze shifted as he pondered, smilingly saying, "Jiu Yu Venerable, you jest. I sensed a disturbance at the Sword Tomb, so I came to investigate. I didn't expect to meet this person. Jiu Yu Venerable, weren't you looking for that young man pursued by the Demon Corpse Ancestor in the Void Tide Sea?
I have already found him."
"Hmph, do we still need you to find him?"
Jiu Yu Venerable coldly snorted, staring at Qin Chen, his gaze profound, and said lightly, "You really are easy for us to find. May I ask who you are and why you were pursued by the Demon Corpse Ancestor? Hiding and running about, can you inform us now?"
Swish! Jiu Yu Venerable stepped forward, moving towards Qin Chen, and with a roar, the divine rainbow surged from him, and the Venerable's aura enveloped him.
"Who are you?"
Hearing Jiu Yu Venerable's displeased tone, Qin Chen frowned. He did not even know this person, yet he came in with such anger?
Could Jiu Yu Venerable not be angry?
The three of them had exhausted all means to locate Qin Chen, yet ended up with nothing, which naturally left them displeased.
The matters that occurred in the Void Tide Sea had caused such a stir that, in Jiu Yu Venerable's view, Qin Chen should have proactively sought them out, obediently appearing before them instead of making them search.
"Chen Qing, this person is one of the top forces in the Heavenly Realm, Jiu Yu Sacred Mountain's Jiu Yu Venerable. You should show respect upon meeting him. Jiu Yu Venerable, my little brother Chen Qing does not understand; I hope you will forgive him."
Qingxue Guhua hurriedly tried to smooth things over for Qin Chen.
