Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

"this……"

Seeing Young Master Zhang, who was surrounded by a pure and ethereal aura and dazzling light, with a celestial halo hanging high behind his head, all worldly airs gone and revealing the appearance of an immortal, Xu Zhen and the others were completely stunned.

They stared wide-eyed at the unbelievable scene before them, their minds blank, even their breathing slowed down.

Zhao Liuzi murmured blankly, unable to understand why things had turned out this way.

"This...how is this possible?"

"Isn't this young master Zhang a prodigy?"

Shouldn't it be Master Fahai who uses his Buddhist powers to bring this young master back to his original form, or even to the point of destroying his soul?

Shouldn't this young master be doomed and surely die?

How did things turn out like this?

Young Master Zhang did indeed reveal his true form, but it was different from what he had expected.

This young master is not an ordinary person, but an immortal?

How is this possible?!

Zhao Liuzi's sinister face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with terror.

Beside him, Xu Zhen muttered to himself, "An immortal... an immortal... I must be dreaming..."

"I've offended an immortal? And I still want to cause trouble for an immortal?"

Dead!

At that moment, this was the only thought in his mind.

Not only him, but also Officer Feng next to him was having similar thoughts at this moment, his mind in turmoil, knowing that he had kicked a hornet's nest this time, and the kind of hornet's nest that would be the end of him if he offended it.

Officer Feng couldn't help but feel regret.

If I hadn't offended him, and hadn't associated with scoundrels like Zhao Liuzi, would I have avoided offending this young master Zhang?

Officer Feng appeared dazed.

At the same time, he also understood why Master Xuanqingzi had that expression and knelt down to worship on the spot!

Did they recognize the young master's identity?!

That damned Master Xuanqingzi, can't you just speak clearly?!

Officer Feng harbored resentment.

At this moment, County Magistrate Wang Shenzhi, many residents of Guobei County, as well as his mother Xu and younger brother Zhang Xing, were all dumbfounded.

"How is that possible?"

"Big brother, how could you possibly be an immortal?!"

Zhang Xing pointed at his older brother in front of him, subconsciously took several steps back, his face filled with disbelief.

"Immortal... Immortal... Haha..."

"No wonder you said there was a way when Father died that day..."

Zhang Xing seemed dazed, as if he had finally come to understand some things.

He muttered to himself, "So, back then you weren't looking for your father's killer, nor were you begging the immortals to resurrect him. You yourself were the immortal, and it was you who resurrected your father?"

"No wonder...no wonder Father told me not to make you angry..."

Zhang Xing looked bitter.

He understood everything!

The eldest brother was not lucky; he was noticed by an immortal with boundless magical power, received the immortal's favor, and his father was brought back to life. He himself was that immortal!

Su Chen looked at him calmly.

"Hehehe..." Looking at his elder brother, who was shrouded in a pure and radiant aura, dazzling like the sun in the sky, like a god, Zhang Xing laughed self-deprecatingly, mocking his own overestimation of his abilities.

Everyone was too frightened to speak, and in the silence, only Zhang Xing's voice continued to echo.

"From childhood to adulthood, you've been like the blazing sun in the sky, dazzling and scorching everyone around you, leaving them all pale in comparison and forced to hide in the shadows!"

"Until a year ago, when you finally stopped shining so brightly, I thought you had fallen, no longer high above, no longer dazzlingly looking down on everyone. I finally stepped out of your shadow!"

"In other people's eyes, I'm also very outstanding!"

"Just now, I also thought you were going to be subdued by this Master Fahai!"

"But it turns out, I was wrong, I was wrong, it was all wrong, it was all my delusion!"

Zhang Xing chuckled, "You are still the sun in the sky, shining so brightly that everyone below pales in comparison, or even becomes insignificant and invisible!"

"So you weren't crazy a year ago, you just stopped comparing yourself to us mortals and started comparing yourself to the immortals in heaven?"

Zhang Xing's voice echoed, reverberating in everyone's ears.

The villagers of Guobei County, the old gatekeeper Wang, and others all sensed the weakness and self-abandonment in Zhang Xing's tone.

Clearly, this young master Zhang Xing has lost his spirit and probably no longer has the courage to compete with his dazzling older brother.

That's true. While this young master Zhang Xing is certainly outstanding, he is far inferior to this eldest young master Zhang, and there's practically no comparison.

Just as Young Master Zhang said, Young Master Zhang shines as brightly as the sun in the sky, making everyone else pale in comparison!

At the same time, they could all understand Zhang Xing's feelings to some extent.

You should know that over the past year, they have talked about it quite a bit, laughing and joking, using the story of Young Master Zhang's mental breakdown as a topic of conversation.

They even told their children when they were disciplining them that they must never grow up to be like this young master Zhang!

The old gatekeeper, Wang, and the others couldn't help but have some doubts.

It's not just impossible to imitate, it's simply unattainable!

Everyone knew their own limitations; how could they possibly compare to someone like Young Master Zhang, who was recorded in history and whose legends were passed down through generations?

At that moment, Madam Xu could hardly believe it, murmuring to herself, "Xuan'er..."

The next second, she looked at Zhang Shanhai beside her and asked, "Master, you already knew?"

Under the watchful eyes of many, Zhang Shanhai nodded proudly.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, the villagers of Guobei County, coroner Wen Zhou, and others revealed expressions of envy and jealousy in their eyes.

Madam Xu, somewhat resentful and amused, said, "Master and Xuan'er, you really kept this from me for so long..."

At this time.

Among the crowd of Guobei County residents, someone couldn't help but kneel down first.

When the people around saw someone kneeling, they instinctively knelt down as well.

With a clatter, a whole group of people knelt down in the Zhang family mansion. Zhao Liuzi and the others trembled, but managed to stay upright.

"Immortal... Immortal, please forgive me. Please, be magnanimous and forgive my past words..."

"Immortal, we did not mean to offend you. We did not recognize you, and we hope you will forgive us..."

"This humble subject truly had no idea... If I had known he was an immortal, I wouldn't have dared to do it even if I had a hundred lives..."

Some people pressed their foreheads to the ground, not daring to look up; others had trembling voices and couldn't even finish their sentences.

Their fear, anxiety, and regret were intertwined.

At this time,

Looking at the people of Guobei County kneeling on the ground, and then at Young Master Zhang, who was displaying the extraordinary appearance of an immortal and exuding a pure and spiritual aura, they were amazed.

Zhao Liuzi, Officer Feng, Xu Zhen, and the others then seemed to wake up from their daze.
