The next moment, many people immediately put on warm yet appropriate smiles, rising and cupping their hands in greeting:
"So it is Daoist Friend Han who has arrived, I have long admired your name!"
"A distinguished disciple of Lingxu Heavenly Palace, truly extraordinary in demeanor!"
"This one greets Daoist Friend Han!"
In an instant, more than ten people gathered around, speaking respectfully and with clear intentions of befriending him.
They were not shallow individuals; even if Han Xuanji's apparent cultivation seemed not high, they would never show the slightest disrespect outwardly.
The atmosphere in the hall immediately became more lively with Han Xuanji's arrival.
Han Xuanji's expression was normal; he nodded slightly to everyone, returning their greetings.
Just then, a clear laugh, like wind chimes, approached from afar.
"Brother! Look who I brought!"
Xuanyuan Linger, like a cheerful Fire Phoenix, quickly burst into the Ju Xian Pavilion.
Behind her followed a young man wearing a bronze mask and the attire of a Guest Elder; it was Lin Feng.
Led by Xuanyuan Linger, Lin Feng stepped into the Ju Xian Pavilion, feigning a deliberately created sense of restraint.
He had restrained his own cultivation perfectly, pretending to be merely a newly advanced Golden Immortal.
However, as his gaze habitually swept across the interior of the pavilion, assessing the people present, a rather familiar figure appeared in his eyes, immediately stirring up a monstrous wave in his heart!
It was him!
The mysterious person who, at the stall, seemed to have seen through him with a single glance!
How could he be here?
And... he was actually sitting beside the main seat, personally accompanied by Xuanyuan Po.
Lin Feng quickly lowered his head, suppressing the shock in his heart, and stopped thinking further.
Could it be that the other party saw through his disguise?
He felt as if he had fallen into some kind of trap.
And Xuanyuan Linger, of course, couldn't know what Lin Feng was thinking. She tugged on Lin Feng's sleeve, proudly showing off to Xuanyuan Po:
"Brother, I recruited a Genius for you! He's really amazing, and he's also very knowledgeable about ancient Dao texts. Although he just Breakthrough to Golden Immortal not long ago, I think he has great potential!"
The surrounding crowd held their breath even more upon seeing this young ancestor appear.
Xuanyuan Linger held an extraordinary status in Xuanyuan City; she was Xuanyuan Po's younger sister, her talent surpassed her peers, and she was deeply doted upon by the Old Ancestor.
Everyone's gaze was immediately drawn to Lin Feng.
"Golden Immortal Loose Cultivator?"
"So he took Young Miss Ling'er's route..."
"Good Luck, to be favored by Young Miss Ling'er."
Sensing the slightly unstable aura on Lin Feng, as if he had only recently stabilized his Realm, and then hearing Xuanyuan Linger's introduction, the curiosity in everyone's eyes quickly faded, replaced by a faint sense of detachment and indifference.
A mere Loose Cultivator who had just entered the Golden Immortal Realm, even if he possessed some niche knowledge and fortunately helped Young Miss Ling'er once, was truly insignificant in front of the many Prodigies and veteran Golden Immortals present.
Some gazes even carried a subtle hint of disdain, believing this person was using the Opportunity to cling to the Xuanyuan Family.
A powerful expert in the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, after sweeping his Divine Sense over Lin Feng, merely nodded slightly and did not pay much attention.
In his opinion, this young man's Foundation was acceptable, with nothing strange about him, but also nothing extraordinary.
Lin Feng felt the surrounding gazes; his face under the mask was calm. He merely cupped his hands slightly towards Xuanyuan Po and the others, his voice muffled through the mask:
"Lin Feng greets Your Highness Xuanyuan and all Fellow Daoists."
Xuanyuan Po was already accustomed to his sister bringing people. Seeing Lin Feng's ordinary cultivation, although he was brought by his sister, he didn't pay too much attention, merely smiling gently:
"Since you are Ling'er's friend, please make yourself at home; there's no need for formalities."
Lin Feng silently walked to an inconspicuous corner of the pavilion and sat down, trying to minimize his presence.
Immediately, Xuanyuan Po's attention returned to Han Xuanji. Noticing Han Xuanji's curiosity, he quietly explained:
"This is my sister, Ling'er. Her talent is no less than mine, she just loves to play."
[Xuanyuan Linger: Golden Immortal Third Layer, person of great Luck, Innate Dao Body, top-grade Dao Spiritual Root, carries a wisp of Innate Phoenix Origin, Sacred Emperor Bloodline, favored by Heavenly Dao, naturally carefree. Wishes to help Xuanyuan Po contend for the position of Human Emperor. She is somewhat curious about Lin Feng because he is proficient in ancient Dao texts and his Origin is mysterious.]
Han Xuanji took all of this in, secretly complaining in his heart.
Goodness, the standard setup for the protagonist and female lead.
He seemed to already see the sequence: Lin Feng feigns weakness, everyone underestimates him → encounters a crisis → Lin Feng is "forced" to reveal part of his strength, shocking everyone → everyone looks at him with new eyes → Xuanyuan Linger becomes even more admiring... This entire process was practically predictable.
However, Lin Feng shouldn't be that simple. He isn't rising from being a good-for-nothing; he himself is an unparalleled expert, and his purpose should not be simple.
Coming to the Xuanyuan Family, he should also be plotting something?
Han Xuanji picked up the spiritual tea beside him, took a light sip, a hint of playful amusement flashing in his eyes, unnoticed by anyone.
At the same time, he was also curious, how many simulation attempts would it take to simulate Lin Feng?
As a Reincarnation of an Emperor, and also possessing great Luck, his achievements in this life should not be low.
[Thirty times.]
"?"
Han Xuanji was startled.
He confirmed the look in his eyes; it was an unaffordable price.
Jiang Hao, who had stepped into the Hunyuan Realm, only needed twelve times.
Is this Lin Feng really that formidable?
This means that the other party's future achievements are far above Jiang Hao's; he is not just an ordinary Hongyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, but very likely has stepped into the Hunyuan Taiji Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.
What a pity.
Han Xuanji's current number of attempts was not enough to simulate Lin Feng, while the other people present required too few simulation attempts.
However, this Xuanyuan Linger's future Opportunity is also not simple, requiring a full five attempts.
"Forget it, I'll save them up for now."
Han Xuanji shook his head. He was now a Ninth Revolution Great Overarching Golden Immortal; ordinary rewards were of little use to him.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the pavilion was already lively and everyone had introduced themselves sufficiently, Xuanyuan Po cleared his throat. His voice, imbued with a trace of spiritual power, clearly entered everyone's ears, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
"All Fellow Daoists who can gather here today are those who share the same aspirations as I, Xuanyuan Po. I, Po, thank you in advance."
He first bowed with cupped hands, his expression sincere. Then, his tone shifted, becoming solemn and filled with temptation,
"Today, I invited you all here not only to renew our friendship, but also for an important Opportunity that I wish to share with you."
Hearing this, Lin Feng immediately became interested, adopting a serious posture.
Han Xuanji, however, felt nothing. He planned to visit the Xuanyuan Family's ancestral land tonight to check in.
Since he came all this way, he couldn't leave empty-handed.
Since he discovered that the Xuanyuan Family had no Primordial Chaos experts guarding it, wouldn't that mean he could do as he pleased?
