The Supreme Elders, Sect Master, and Peak Masters of the Green Cloud Sect were all startled.
The sudden appearance of a person, for those who had never encountered the Divinity Transformation Realm and were unprepared, was somewhat unexpected.
However, when they recognized Jiang Fan, the shock turned into delight.
"Jiang Fan!" Liu Wuchen exclaimed excitedly.
But just as he shouted, he was kicked by Zhuang Yuanyin, who quickly bowed and said, "We pay our respects to Senior Jiang."
Liu Wuchen then realized that directly addressing Jiang Fan by name was indeed disrespectful.
The latest information was that Jiang Fan was already a practitioner of the Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul, a realm they could only look up to.
He immediately corrected himself, saying, "Sect Master Liu of the Green Cloud Sect pays respects to Senior Jiang."
The Supreme Elders and Peak Masters of various peaks, with varying feelings, all paid their respects: "We pay respects to Senior Jiang."
Jiang Fan smiled helplessly, "Master, Supreme Elders and Peak Masters, no need for such formalities."
"No matter how far I roam, I am still a person of the Green Cloud Sect."
Xu Qingyang and the others were always respectful, but even the disciples of the Green Cloud Sect being so formal made him feel a bit distant.
Hearing this, Feng Guchan recalled his once-proudest disciple, Nangong Liuyun.
After becoming Chen Jing Venerable, he severed ties with the Green Cloud Sect, even feeling ashamed of having come from it.
In contrast, Jiang Fan, now a renowned senior in Taicang State, still acknowledged their Green Cloud Sect.
He cupped his hands and said, "Senior Jiang, in the Martial Path Realm, strength determines seniority, so it is only right for us to address you as Senior."
"We can’t let outsiders say that we, the old bones of the Green Cloud Sect, rely on age to disrespect Martial Path experts."
Jiang Fan felt a sense of helplessness in his heart.
In any path, the skilled are the teachers, but he was too unique, surpassing the Green Cloud Sect while originating from it, leading to a conflict between his realm seniority and nominal seniority.
He no longer dwelled on it, smiling gently at everyone, "I’m relieved to see you all alive and well."
Having endured the Ancient Giant War, witnessed countless separations and farewells, the familiarity of seeing old friends gave him incomparable peace.
Liu Wuchen said, "It’s all thanks to Senior Jiang, for summoning a Divinity Transformation Venerable to eliminate the enemy, otherwise, some of us might have fallen."
Summoned a Divinity Transformation Venerable?
A peculiar expression crossed Jiang Fan’s face, and Xu Youran and Gong Caiyi couldn’t help but slightly curl their lips, deep pride welling up in their hearts.
Their husband was already someone beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
Liu Wuchen noticed the strange expressions on the three of them, and asked in confusion, "Did I guess wrong?"
"That Divinity Transformation Venerable wasn’t invited by Senior Jiang?"
His heart skipped a beat.
He had just praised the wrong thing, potentially embarrassing Jiang Fan.
He quickly apologized, "Sorry Senior Jiang, I misunderstood."
"But it’s alright, with Senior Jiang’s abilities, sooner or later you’ll be recognized by a Divinity Transformation Venerable."
Several Supreme Elders hurriedly chimed in to resolve the awkward situation.
"Yes, Senior Jiang, achieving the late-stage Nascent Soul so young, you’re sure to catch the eye of some Divinity Transformation Venerable."
"Gold does not fear the test of fire, we believe Senior Jiang will soon gain the recognition of a Divinity Transformation Venerable."
Gong Caiyi chuckled softly, reluctant to let them continue misunderstanding, and quickly said:
"Sect Master Liu, you misunderstood."
"Jiang Fan is the Divinity Transformation Venerable, having been bestowed the Taoist name Starfire Venerable by the Saint themselves."
"He was the one who wiped out the Asura Clan on the continent."
What?
The previously cheerful atmosphere instantly froze as if encased in ice.
Everyone’s expressions froze, their eyes widened, staring at Jiang Fan unblinkingly, even forgetting to breathe.
Jiang Fan is in the Divinity Transformation Realm?
The overwhelming amount of information left their minds unable to process.
Not until a long while later did Zhuang Yuanyin’s cough break the silence.
Jiang Fan glanced over, suddenly recalling that this elderly Supreme Elder of Sect Master Peak harbored old ailments.
Back then, purchasing the Beast Whip, was surely meant for healing?
He flicked his fingers, and a drop of Heavenly Clothes Divine Water landed in front of Zhuang Yuanyin, playfully saying, "Supreme Elder, take this Healing Spirit Pill."
Zhuang Yuanyin shivered, hurriedly kneeling down in fright, "This junior doesn’t dare, I pay my respects to the Venerable!"
The others quickly snapped out of their daze, all following suit in respectful reverence.
What kind of existence is the Divinity Transformation Realm?
