Hearing the sound, Liang Yi and the others looked up at the boundless galaxy before them, and an astonishing scene unfolded.

Unexpectedly, from an unknown origin to an unknown destination, a gentle galaxy surged with a misty aura, revealing not water flowing in the galaxy, but a thick Star Mist moving slowly like water.

The Star Mist emerged separately from the Star River, forming a misty gateway in the air.

The gateway opened silently, and out walked an elderly man who was clearly thin but dressed in a voluminous dark robe.

Although the old man had white hair and a youthful, ruddy face, there was not a trace of Spiritual Power fluctuations around him, resembling nothing more than an ordinary old boatman in a river.

Yet no one present dared to underestimate him, for this elder was the Master of Senluo Wanxiang, a being who did not see eye to eye with the Master of Stars, Fang Zhi, and one of the top figures of this era.

"Taoist Sect? Have you come to the wrong place? This is the Senluo Wanxiang Sect, not the Complete Heaven Sect." The elder spoke as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice even faltering momentarily, only recovering when he spoke the second word.

Without inquiring about Liang Yi's purpose, as he already knew, he started with a sarcastic remark, causing Liang Yi to touch his nose while Su Youyi and Uncle Ju widened their eyes in surprise. How could this old man start off so oddly hostile?

Pang Qingshi and Lu Shanxing looked slightly embarrassed; their Sect Leader truly despised the Complete Heaven Sect, and naturally the closely related Taoist Sect was within the range of his displeasure.

"Wan, senior, my visit this time is in the capacity of the Sect Leader of the Purple Cloud Sect, seeking an alliance with the Senluo Wanxiang Sect."

Although Liang Yi was slightly surprised for a moment, he knew well that all powerful figures had their quirks. Thus, he did not take the previous comment to heart, and stepped forward to respectfully clasp his hands and speak.

"Sect Leader of the Purple Cloud Sect? I never expected that the once ancient great sect would hand over the position to an inexperienced young whelp. Ridiculous!" As Liang Yi spoke, the elder had already stepped out from the galaxy and was now standing before them.

Upon hearing Liang Yi's words, he scrutinized him from head to toe and then scoffed with disdain.

Su Youyi could not stand it anymore. She hated hearing anyone speak ill of her senior brother. Was this old man too excessive? Starting with a strange taunt which continued incessantly?

Since Su Youyi had left the mountains, she had met many top Cultivators but never saw any Great Cultivator so shameless.

Uncle Ju was surprised and looked at the thin old man: Was this elder a fellow practitioner? Like him, he also practiced thick-skinned.

"It's just a fortuitous encounter, merely to fulfill a senior's last wish." Liang Yi still looked unconcerned, smiling comfortably as he spoke to the Master of Senluo. Meanwhile, he quietly held his junior sister's hand and gently rubbed it twice in her palm, signaling her to stay calm.

"Hmph, to think Chen Hua's proud and arrogant character could teach a disciple like you. I never imagined," the elder snorted and then turned his gaze away from Liang Yi to Zhou Yuqing.

"Is there really such a thing as coming back to life in this world?" The thin old man now exhibited a hint of surprise, scrutinizing the tall, beautiful woman with red hair.

"My life or death has nothing to do with you, and likewise, your appearance has nothing to do with me," Zhou Yuqing frowned since the elder came up and asked directly, knowing very well.

You should know, this Sect Leader of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect was of the same generation as their prodigies, having interacted with Chen Hua back then. Even when Fang Zhi was still the Chief of the Complete Heaven Sect, this man had been the Chief of Senluo Wanxiang Sect, and their meetings always turned into conflicts.

Now, Chen Hua and Fang Zhi also maintained their youthful appearances, because with the elevation in Realm, life expectancy greatly increases. After reaching the Eighth Realm where one comprehends the Power of Laws, one is nearly immortal, and time hardly erodes Cultivators with a hint of the celestial in them.

As for Chen Hua and Fang Zhi, if they desired, they could even revert to a youthful appearance, so why had this fellow become like this?

Moreover, Zhou Yuqing clearly sensed that this elder hadn't deliberately changed his appearance but had indeed entered an old phase of life.

"Your life or death is none of my business, and evidently, neither is my appearance any concern of yours," Wan Wan did not answer Zhou Yuqing directly but responded in a bland manner.

Zhou Yuqing's expression stiffened, this fellow was as annoying as ever. Back then, whenever Fang Zhi and this fellow met, fighting was inevitable not just because of the sect traditions but because Wan Wan's words were always too harsh, never speaking nicely.

"Speak or not, I couldn't care less," Zhou Yuqing muttered carelessly. Who cares about this troublesome old man?

Liang Yi and Su Youyi curiously examined the Sect Leader of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect; full of silvery hair and although his complexion was ruddy, he indeed looked like a man in his sixties or seventies, hardly imaginable as an old acquaintance of Zhou Yuqing.

After seeing the old friend, the elder glanced at Liang Yi then walked towards Pang Qingshi, casually leaving behind a few words.

"I have important matters to attend to in my sect right now, you wait a moment."

Fang Zhi and Chen Hua of the Complete Heaven Sect despised each encounter, prompting the elder to throw a few satirical remarks towards Liang Yi. But as a Great Perfection Cultivator of the Eighth Realm, relentlessly nitpicking with a junior would not only be embarrassing; Chen Hua, that bastard, would definitely come knocking on his door.

Liang Yi shrugged, such bizarre sarcasm was nothing; they should see how players greet each other on forums.

This Sect Leader of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect, who he also knew a little about in his previous life, was named Wan Wan and had a peculiar catchphrase: "I never expected."

At first, players of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect often heard the Sect Leader say this phrase and didn't think much of it, until passionate gamers digging into the characters' backgrounds discovered this Sect Leader's real name was somewhat silly — actually named Wan Wan.

Connecting this to Wan Wan's favorite saying of "I never expected," who was also a fortune-teller, the contrast directly made players laugh every time they saw it.

"Senior brother, what's wrong?" Su Youyi, whose hand was being held by Liang Yi, suddenly noticed his body subtly twitching, as if he were holding back laughter. She turned her head and blinked in confusion, asking Liang Yi.

"Nothing... just remembering something fun." Liang Yi exerted great effort to suppress his laughter, shifting his gaze back to the skinny old man.

"Master..."

"Sect Leader!"

Pang Qingshi and Lu Shanxing both respectfully saluted Wan Wan.

"Tell me, what's the situation?" Wan Wan furrowed his brows as he looked at the sleeping Wang Fuxian lying on the ground like a dead pig.
