Watching his disappearing figure, the elderly father Zhang Shanhai, the mother Xu, and the younger brother Zhang Xing all looked bewildered.
Even now, they are still dumbfounded and don't understand what's going on.
Master Xuanqingzi came to exorcise evil spirits, so how did things turn out like this?
The servants watching were also discussing it amongst themselves.
What just happened truly stunned them.
Time passed slowly.
It was evening.
The main gate of the Zhang family residence.
Under the watchful eye of Old Man Wang, the gatekeeper, Su Chen walked calmly toward the gate.
Xu Zhen and his group were really annoying. He planned to go and see where the Black Tiger Gang was based, and then find an opportunity to help them get out of trouble.
Walking along the streets of Guobei County, Su Chen pondered, "Hmm, I also need to find a way to acquire more cultivation techniques during this period and raise my comprehension to the next level as soon as possible!"
At that moment, noticing something, he couldn't help but glance into the distance.
On the bustling street, a scholar, dressed in a faded blue cloth robe, carrying a bamboo book box on his shoulder, with a slightly thin figure and delicate features, was walking somewhat hurriedly.
If it were an ordinary scholar, he would naturally not pay attention, or might even glance at him and then pass by. But this scholar was somewhat different.
Looking at the somewhat familiar face, Su Chen's eyes flashed with surprise.
Ning Caichen?
He was somewhat uncertain.
To confirm his thoughts, he changed direction and walked towards the somewhat awkward scholar.
"Ning Caichen?"
A clear, melodious voice rang out.
Ning Caichen turned his head and stared in surprise at the boy dressed in moon-white clothes who was gradually approaching him.
As he watched, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.
The boy had fair skin and extremely handsome features, exuding an air of refined elegance and aloofness.
Ning Caichen swore he had never seen anyone with such a good temperament and such good looks.
While marveling at his appearance, he pointed to himself and asked in confusion, "Young man, do you know me?"
He was surprised and hesitant, unsure if he had misheard.
This time, he was going to Jinling on business and would be passing through Guobei County. Logically speaking, no one in Guobei County should know him.
Moreover, he was such a handsome young man; if he knew him, he would never forget him.
Su Chen looked surprised, muttering to himself, "It really is Ning Caichen, the guy who doesn't even spare female ghosts?"
Just as he was deep in thought, Ning Caichen wondered what was going on with this young man.
An elderly Taoist priest, with white hair and beard but not showing signs of age, a gaunt face, and a calm demeanor, walked slowly toward them.
Su Chen glanced over indifferently.
Ning Caichen was surprised, wondering who this old Taoist priest was.
The old Taoist priest walked over with a restrained expression, cautiously looking at the young man dressed in moon-white clothes beside him.
Before Ning Caichen could even ask, Xuan Qingzi said nervously and eagerly, "Young Master Zhang, may I serve you?"
After leaving the Zhang family mansion, he had been trying to find a way to see this immortal again. Unexpectedly, while he was hesitating nearby, he stumbled upon an opportunity!
Chapter 36 Su Chen Displays Extraordinary Immortal Phenomena
As he pondered this, Daoist Xuanqingzi glanced at the scholar beside him, wondering why this seemingly ordinary scholar, who was only somewhat handsome, had caught the attention of the immortal.
He was deep in thought when he said this.
Su Chen was unfazed, but Ning Caichen, standing beside him, was dumbfounded. He glanced at the white-haired old Taoist priest and then at the young man with a youthful and handsome face.
Isn't this the opposite?
How could a respected old Taoist priest say such a thing to a young man?
Su Chen ignored Xuan Qingzi and looked at Ning Caichen, who was dumbfounded.
He smiled slightly and said calmly, "Ning Caichen, I see that your Red Phoenix Star is in motion, indicating that you will soon face a calamity. If you encounter any difficult situations, you can come to the Zhang family in Nanliu Lane to find me."
He was pondering how to find a pretext to cause trouble for that tree demon, when the opportunity suddenly presented itself.
Ning Caichen asked in surprise, "The Red Phoenix Star is moving?"
He noticed the words "a calamity is coming" and paused for a moment.
real or fake?
Why is this young man acting so strangely?
Ning Caichen asked in confusion, "What does 'an impending calamity' mean?"
Su Chen shook his head and smiled, "When the time comes, you will naturally understand. Just remember, if you encounter anything difficult to handle, you can come to me."
Ning Caichen was puzzled and confused, but subconsciously said, "Thank you. If I encounter anything difficult to handle, I will come to you."
Of course, that's what he said, but in reality he didn't care much and didn't take those strange words to heart.
After all, Confucius said, "I do not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits." This kind of superstitious talk sounds like fortune-telling, so how could he believe it?
What's more, it was a young guy who told him this.
Su Chen smiled, but did not continue to explain. After glancing at Ning Caichen, he turned and left, leaving Ning Caichen and Xuan Qingzi looking at each other.
"Old Taoist priest, do you know that young man from earlier?"
Who is he?
"Why did you say some strange things to me just now?"
Ning Caichen asked in confusion.
He was puzzled.
Master Xuanqingzi was astonished, muttering to himself, "As expected of a celestial being, he foresaw the future fate of this scholar with just a glance?"
The more he thought about it, the more awe he felt.
If what this eldest son of the Zhang family, the immortal, said is true, then it means that this immortal can foresee the future!
"What incredible supernatural powers! We mortals are no match for them!"
Master Xuanqingzi sighed as he thought to himself.
Ning Caichen asked in confusion, "Old Taoist priest, what's wrong with you?"
One or two, why are they all so inexplicable?
Upon hearing this, Master Xuanqingzi said calmly, "This person's identity is beyond your imagination, young scholar. You'd better remember what that person said; it might save your life someday!"
With that, he hurriedly walked away, leaving Ning Caichen with a bewildered expression.
Ning Caichen lifted his book box, not thinking too much about it, and prepared to stay at Lanruo Temple, which he had inquired about not long ago.
Ahead of the street.
Looking at the now-vanished eldest son of the Zhang family, Xuan Qingzi's face was filled with regret.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
After shaking off Xuan Qingzi, Su Chen stopped trying to hide his whereabouts and began searching for the Black Tiger Gang in the city.
He didn't put in much effort; he simply stopped a few passersby at random, asked them a few questions, and quickly learned everything about the Black Tiger Gang's territory.
Not long after.
A somewhat chaotic neighborhood came into view.
Su Chen stood in the shadows, his gaze sweeping over the Black Tiger Gang's encampment. He slowly closed his eyes, carefully sensing the surroundings.
A moment later, he raised an eyebrow slightly.
He did not sense the presence of Zhao Liuzi, Xu Zhen, or the others.
"interesting……"
Su Chen only needed to think for a moment to basically guess the situation.
Is this an escape, a way to get reinforcements?
He shook his head, not taking Xu Zhen and his ilk seriously.
He glanced at the darkening sky and murmured, "Ning Caichen, shouldn't you be heading to Lanruo Temple by now?"
Compared to Xu Zhen, Zhao Liuzi, and others, he was more concerned about the tree demon Granny at Lanruo Temple.
Su Chen turned around and walked towards the Zhang family's residence.
Ning Caichen wasn't in a hurry; he would come knocking on his door during the day if he encountered difficulties at night.
He planned to take advantage of this time to visit the mass graves in the neighboring Qingyin County and further improve his cultivation.
Time passed slowly.
In the blink of an eye, midnight had arrived.
Outside Guobei County, a night wind gradually rises, casting a shadow on the city wall under the moonlight.
Su Chen moved swiftly, using his lightness skill to fly over the grass. His toes lightly touched the ground, and he moved out of the city gate silently, like a wisp of breeze.
The figure flashed into the night without disturbing any of the night patrollers.
He only stopped slowly and stopped using his light-footed skills after he had gotten some distance away from the city wall.
The night was quiet.
Looking at the pitch-black night sky, with low-hanging dark clouds obscuring the stars and moon, Su Chen slightly raised the corner of his lips. "Forget it, I might as well just fly over there."
Before he could finish speaking...
With a slight thought, the dormant magical power and cultivation within him stirred as if an undercurrent had been awakened.
His feet slowly lifted off the ground.
Without the sound of wind howling or thunder exploding, his figure floated up naturally, as if heaven and earth were meant to support him.
As he used his magical powers, the extraordinary phenomena surrounding him could no longer be concealed.
Three thousand strands of jet-black hair moved without wind, like waves of ink surging in the night. A faint glow shone on her skin, like the radiance of jade or the reflection of moonlight.
Wisps of pure, ethereal energy emanated from his body, slowly flowing through the night sky, making even the chilly air clearer in their wake.
Immediately afterwards.
A faint halo appeared behind his head.
It is neither scorching nor intense, but bright and gentle, like a bright moon hanging in the sky.
Bathed in the light, Su Chen's figure appeared even more pristine, as if he had already transcended the mundane world and stood apart from humanity.
The bright sunlight slowly shone down, illuminating the night sky and the fields below.
At that moment, it seemed as if a bright moon had appeared out of thin air between heaven and earth.
Looking down at his current appearance, Su Chen's face flashed with helplessness.
"This phenomenon is too great..."
He shook his head, then ignored it and immediately moved.
The next instant, he rose up and soared upwards, reaching a height of several tens of feet in the sky. He transformed into a streak of light and sped off towards Qingyin County.
A faint moonlight trailed across the night sky.
Mountains and wild forests.
The restless beasts and the scattered ghosts wandering in the wilderness subconsciously looked up, and then their expressions froze.
