Chapter 201 Patriarch Cang Xuan (1/2)
When Zhou Yuan was nearly about to burst into tears due to the difference in treatment, Yaoyao raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the mysterious existence that wore the form of a young man and asked, ”You know me?”
The refreshingly handsome young man chuckled, but did not answer her question. ”I know Cang Yuan.”
”You know master Cang Yuan?” Zhou Yuan was taken aback, some astonishment in his gaze at he looked towards the young man. ”Elder, you are?”
The young man before them seemed to be about the same age as them, but his seemingly bottomless ancient eyes told them that he was definitely an ancient monster like existence.
The handsome young man fell in thought for a bit, before he smiled and said, ”I am the Saint who died… you may call me patriarch Cang Xuan.”
Zhou Yuan secretly remarked in his heart, “As expected, this young man is that legendary Saint.”
“Of course, the current me is merely made from a little Spirit energy. My original body has already died.” Patriarch Cang Xuan spoke with a faint smile, his expression honest and forthcoming.
“But why is Cang Yuan not by your side?” Asked patriarch Cang Xuan as he looked towards Yaoyao.
Yaoyao's pretty face dimmed slightly. ”Grandpa Hei was attacked by mysterious enemies, so he left.”
Patriarch Cang Xuan’s eyes widened a little.
“Elder, do you know where I can find grandpa Hei?” Yaoyao’s bright eyes looked towards patriarch Cang Xuan. She had grown up under Cang Yuan’s care, and treated him as a grandpa. She was naturally worried about Cang Yuan, but did not know how to find him.
Patriarch Cang Xuan shook his head. “You need not worry for him. The old guy’s pretty capable, and will naturally seek you out when he feels that it’s safe.”
A trace of disappointmented flitted across Yaoyao’s eyes, before she began to ask another question, “Does elder know of my roots?”
She had lived with Cang Yuan in the isolated domain since young, and had never come into contact with the outside world nor knew where she came from.
At the very least, she should have parents, right? Cang Yuan had never mentioned such matters to her, although Yaoyao did not mind too much.
In addition, there were the mysterious enemies that even grandpa Hei was fearful of. Where had they come from? She could feel that those people were likely after her.
Patriarch Cang Xuan was silent for a while, before he spoke, “It is not appropriate for me to speak of these matters, but you will discover the answers for yourself if you find a chance in the future.”
His words were clearly avoiding Yaoyao’s question.
Hence, Yaoyao did not ask any further on the topic.
“Hehe, am I right to say that the two of you have come here searching for my blessing?” Patriarch Cang Xuan smile widely as he hurriedly shifted the topic.
Yaoyao did not respond, leaving Zhou Yuan no option but to step in. “We were directed here by the Saint Tablet…”
Patriarch Cang Xuan smiled and said, “Do you want to hear my story?”
Before either of them could reply however, he had already seated himself by the white jade tablet and summoned two stools from the mist with a wave of his hand, before he warmly said, “Come, have a seat.”
Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao exchange a look, before they sat down.
Patriarch Cang Xuan beamed as he shot a look at Zhou Yuan. “Cang Yuan has good eyes, he’s gotten himself another pretty decent disciple. Over the years, this is the first time I have seen such a weak person arrive here.”
Zhou Yuan's face turned black. Was this praise or an insult.
With a faint smile, patriarch Cang Xuan beckoned with his hand, causing the mist to gather. It filled their surroundings, the surging mists transforming into a screen of sorts.
In the screen, a figure stood in the air. From his appearance, it was patriarch Cang Xuan.
Vast and seemingly endless Genesis Qi surged above patriarch Cang Xuan’s head, covering the heavens. It was impossible for anyone to imagine how powerful such Genesis Qi was.
However, patriarch Cang Xuan’s expression was extremely grave, while seemingly carrying something in his arms. At closer inspection, one would find that it looked a little like a baby.
The world in the screen was suddenly torn open at this moment. Endless lightning poured out as if to destroy the entire world.
