c894: Old Farts (2)

……

The crowd which had a moment ago been silent suddenly began chattering loudly, many of those who had just been looking towards Chang Bao disdainfully hurriedly adjusting their expressions, putting on a respectful look.

No one dared despise a Saint Grade Alchemist!

Of the cultivators waiting in line, there were several who had visited Lightning Flash City before, hoping to meet Grandmaster Chang in order to ask him for Alchemy services; unfortunately, most of them had never even had the opportunity to speak with him.

Before the crowd could recover from their shock, the other old people around Chang Bao also reported their names.

“This old master’s name is Hong Fang!”

“Du Wan!”

“He Feng!”

“Kong Ruo Yu!” The only old woman gently shouted.

After all of these famous names came out, everyone present fell mute, too stunned to speak.

Shattered Star City, Three River City, Broken Moon City, Grand Boulder City. Lightning Flash City…

The managers from each of these five big cities’ Alchemist Guild branches had actually gathered together here.

Five Saint Grade Alchemists! This lineup was beyond luxurious.

No one dared let out a peep now, all of them staring dumbfounded towards these five people.

Everyone couldn’t help thinking for a moment that instead of Nine Heavens Holy Land, they were actually standing outside the Alchemist Guild’s headquarters!

After all, if that weren’t the case, how could there be five such Grandmasters all together in one place?

Du Wan smiled and stepped forward, “My fellow companions and I have come here today to visit with this place’s master, an old friend of ours. We hadn’t expected to create a misunderstanding, for that, please excuse us.”

“No no no, Old Man Du need not apologise!” Someone from the crowd immediately humbled himself and said.

The various Saint Realm masters here didn’t dare act dissolute in front of these five Grandmasters, all of them instead doing their best to show them the utmost respect.

Yu Ying and Cheng Yue Tong’s beautiful eyes also flashed brilliantly, finally understanding why these five, despite their lower cultivation, treated them like mere Juniors.

On top of that, the two Elders were extremely shocked by the words they just heard.

These five famous figures had actually come here to visit the Holy Master! Just the words ‘come to visit’ implied a great many things.

Only those of the younger generations who were seeking to meet their seniors would speak such words, but if that were indeed the case here, then…

Yu Ying and Cheng Yue Tong both felt their hearts jump into their throats.

“Yu Ying had eyes but failed to recognize five Grandmasters! Five Grandmasters, please forgive this one’s lack of courtesy!” Yu Ying quickly bowed her head in apology.

“Think nothing of it, your honoured Sect’s Holy Master won’t mind,” Du Wan chuckled, “We are not strangers to him.”

“Then please at least allow Yu Ying to personally escort five Grandmasters to see the Holy Master.”

“Elder Yu Ying is too polite.”

“Five Grandmasters, please!”

Du Wan and the others exchanged a glance before ignoring the still stunned crowd of cultivators waiting in line and following after Yu Ying.

When they walked over past Shui Ling and her group, Chang Bao couldn’t help smiling towards her and saying, “Little Miss, what are you still staring at? If you don’t start moving, we are going to leave without you.”

“Eh? Ah… en,” Shui Ling responded awkwardly as if her mind couldn’t keep up with the current situation.

Remembering how she had just shamelessly boasted about how since they were Yang Kai’s friends, that made them her friends, Shui Ling couldn’t wait to find a hole to crawl into and hide.

Such disgrace!

Fortunately, the five Grandmasters were magnanimous and didn’t show any intention of teasing her; otherwise, she really wouldn’t have any face to show the world for the rest of her life.
