Secret Buyer

Chapter 546 - 342: A Word Settles the Storm—The Human Ancestor Arrives and Enters Douluo!

Cui Liuduo’s expression changed, and as she sounded the alarm, the clan elder rubbed his forehead, while Cui Wenda spread his hands, seemingly wanting to ask for the Book of Life and Death.

At this moment.

Under the gaze of countless eyes.

The girl, resembling an Immortal, faced the earth-shaking force of the incoming lethal finger, merely shook her head, then:

"Cease hostilities."

The vast Essence Qi on the Little Dragon Man’s finger dissipated like smoke, the 360 caverns fell silent, and his awe-inspiring vitality was thoroughly dispersed.

It was as if he had turned into an ordinary person.

The finger thus became ordinary.

In a moment of disbelief,

The Little Dragon Man saw the Immortal girl shake her head, let out a soft breath, retreated, and brushed her sleeve.

His vision blurred, and he found himself flying backward, caught by his own protector’s hand.

The long street fell into a slight quiet.

In the silence, the noble families saw the terrifying woman silently retreat,

back into the shadow of the plain-clothed young man who had remained silent and unchanged throughout.

Like a maid.

"It’s getting more interesting..." The cold woman from the Zhang Family arched her brow, her tri-colored dress fluttering, and murmured:

"This girl is extraordinary, with Divine Spirit-level methods... And who is that young man?"

No one could answer, even the protectors of each noble family disciple slightly furrowed their brows.

This Qinghe Cui Family is exceptional.

In the silence, Cui Liuduo appeared a bit dazed, then heard someone among those so-called noble family prodigies ask:

"May I know the names of you two?"

Zhang Fusheng smiled without answering, the Immortal girl behind him spoke coldly:

"Yutu, my name is Yutu, as for my elder brother..."

Before she finished speaking, a voice came from the end of the street:

"Qinghe Cui Family, an outsider, Daoist Venerable—Dao Venerable, a name audacious enough, but seeing today, it truly is extraordinary."

Everyone looked over, slightly changing their expressions.

Four more groups arrived.

These were the remaining noble families rooted in the Celestial Capital.

And the one who spoke was the current leader from the Meng Family, Meng Tianhe.

Zhang Fusheng looked over, the young man speaking donned an ancient style, resembling a graceful gentleman from ancient times,

still shaking a paper fan in his hand, more like a scholar of talent from the past.

At this moment, Meng Tianhe walked at the forefront of the four families’ youth, his smile shone like spring breeze:

"Honored guests whom my Meng Family invited, to be here to witness the great ritual of the Research Institute is truly the blessing of my Meng Family... Since you’re all here, why not come inside?"

He jested, paused beside the members of the Cui Family without glancing at Cui Liuduo and others, his gaze landed directly on Zhang Fusheng and Ruan Yutu.

"Dao Venerable, Dao Yutu, I am Meng Tianhe."

Meng Tianhe closed the paper fan, bowed slightly, and graciously said:

"Born in a humble family, yet more outstanding than the ten noble disciples... Since we have the chance to meet here, would the Dao Family be willing to enter the Research Institute together to witness the great ritual?"

He referred to them as the Dao Family instead of Cui Family, if Zhang Fusheng truly was an outsider of the Cui Family... it might lead to friction between the two families.

Zhang Fusheng showed no expression, merely nodded slightly:

"Naturally interested, but can my friends be invited as well?"

He pointed at Cui Liuduo and others.

Meng Tianhe didn’t even glance at them, happily nodded:

"Since Dao brother asks, it should be so... Dao brother, please?"

Zhang Fusheng scrutinized the young man, slightly surprised.

This fellow is intriguing.

I clearly sensed a touch of Cangtian within his body, Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

Meng Family, Celestial Principle Sect... Might a portion of the new heaven the Celestial Principle Sect venerates be concealed within this youngster’s body?

Zhang Fusheng glanced around at the ten noble families present, sensing increasing incongruities.

Soon in the Netherworld, when the ten noble families compete—meanwhile, as Central Extreme City opens, there’s a high probability the Map of Mountains and Rivers holder will attend.

As for observing these ten nobles now?

Ao Family, if truly of real Dragon Bloodline, in some sense, a descendant of Little White Dragon.

Taiping Daoist Lord desires to establish a clear heaven, and here resides Meng Tianhe.

Zhuge and Sima are closely linked to the Netherworld,

and within the Netherworld, the means left by Sun Monkey connect deeply to the Human Race, thus here are the Xuanyuan and Li families...

Zhang Fusheng’s thoughts swirled.

A coincidence?

It seems too coincidental.

As for the Bao and Zhang families, with whom I seem to have a cause-and-effect relationship, they are not so clear.

This visit to the Capital was not in vain.

His thoughts turned, smiling:

"Let’s enter this Research Institute then."

"I truly wish to see this legendary ritual communicating with the [Supreme Saint Celestial Position]."

Meng Tianhe displayed a radiant smile, waved open the paper fan:

"Dao brother, please!"

Zhang Fusheng responded softly, nodded towards the clan elder, Cui Liuduo, and others, then led Ruan Yutu and entered first.

On the street, everyone exchanged glances, then streamed in, the Cui Family followed along.

"Elder Sister Duo, this outsider... truly is the ace!"

On the way, Cui Wending whispered, but Cui Liuduo did not respond, merely followed silently.

Suddenly a bit confused, she continued to recall the earth-shaking finger from the Little Dragon Man earlier.

In earnest reflection, if it were herself... she would be unable to block it.

Not necessarily fatal, but certainly heavily wounded.

Yet such a terrifying blow was quelled with just a word from the girl trailing behind that fellow like a loyal follower.

"I’ve underestimated the people of this world." Cui Liuduo murmured to herself, but rather than being dispirited, her heart was invigorated.

Soon she’ll catch up!

.........

In the depths of the starry sky.

On an ancient planet.

"Still measuring, all instruments have been tried, it’s simply impossible to calculate that mysterious Taoist Palace."
