At present, not to mention the people who used to gather around him, even those who knew him from the Everjoy District couldn’t recognize him as the white-haired Chen Dengming.
“Woosh—”
Chen Dengming controlled the Escape Light and flew past.
A few disciples from the Changchun Sect saw another brother flying in.
They looked at him a few times, only to realize they didn’t know Chen Dengming.
They assumed he was sent by the Sect to bring some news.
When Chen Dengming approached, a disciple of Qi Cultivation Level Nine from the Changchun Sect, seemingly the leader, asked surprisingly, “This junior brother looks unfamiliar.
...
Are you new here?
What’s your name?
Why are you here?”
Chen Dengming was nonplussed.
Just as he saw the crowd separate, he naturally walked in.
A group of Changchun Sect disciples all stopped their activities to look at him.
He thought these disciples knew him, the newly promoted Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Sect, but they mistook him as a junior brother.
However, he had been secluded in the Changchun Sect for more than two months for cultivation, and on the day he broke through to Foundation Establishment, not all disciples saw it.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
It was natural for them not to know him.
Immediately, Chen Dengming politely responded with a smile, “This junior nephew, my name is Chen Ming, and I indeed just joined the sect recently.
I came here to see what you all are doing and to understand the situation.”
Who are you?
You just joined the Sect, and you’re calling us junior nephews?
It was now the turn of the three Changchun Sect disciples to be dumbfounded.
Especially the leading one who directly frowned and examined Chen Dengming’s Sect robe.
He was about to rebuke this new disciple who didn’t understand the rules, but the words stuck in his throat as his eyes widened with a shocking glow, “Chen! did you say you’re Chen, Chen Ming?”
“Chen Ming?”
“The new guy named Chen…”
The other two disciples initially seemed puzzled, but then they quickly reacted and became somewhat flustered.
“Oh my!
My sight…
” The leading disciple immediately slapped his stiff face and quickly squeezed out a smile.
“I mean, Uncle Chen, I’m sorry…
I just didn’t recognize you.
You’re visiting incognito and dressed in a disciple’s robe.
Are you representing the Sect to inspect our work?”
Chen Dengming then realized that he was still wearing the Changchun Sect disciple’s robe.
He’d gotten used to this robe and hadn’t made much of it.
The benefits of being promoted to Foundation Establishment cultivator, including the Sect’s top robe, had not yet been given to him.
By now, the gathered Loose Cultivators in line also began to murmur.
Many awe-filled gazes fell onto Chen Dengming from all sides.
Being a Martial Uncle to the disciples of the Changchun Sect, wasn’t he a Foundation Establishment cultivator?
Those Loose Cultivators who were close to him and seeing a Foundation Establishment cultivator up close for the first time, felt their feet go soft.
They felt like they were going to fall backward but dared not let it show.
Their facial muscles tensed up like stiff tendons, making them very nervous.
“Ahem.” Chen Dengming cleared his throat, looking at the murmuring Loose Cultivators around him.
Immediately, the scene quieted.
Those nearby who hadn’t stood firm stumbled a few steps, hurriedly steadying themselves, not daring to glance at Chen Dengming.
Chen Dengming felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at by so many people.
He looked at the respectful disciples, “Ah, this junior nephew…”
“Uncle Chen can call me Jiang, what can I do for you?”
“Nothing, I just want to…”
Chen Dengming paused, then said, “I just wanted to ask about your work.
How is it going?
Who are these people…”
“Oh, Uncle Chen is here to check the progress of our work, let’s go, Uncle, let’s go sit over there, that’s my family’s tea shop.
You can have a cup of Spiritual Tea, and while you’re enjoying the tea, I’ll report all of the work details to you.”
Chen Dengming looked at the Spiritual Tea shop that the leading disciple was pointing to, wasn’t that Old Jiang’s shop?
He used to go there for tea now and then when he was in the Everjoy District.
This Old Jiang was quite ill-tempered and had a loud voice.
It turned out someone in his family was a disciple of the Changchun Sect.
No wonder…
He initially didn’t want to go, but seeing the familiar figure of Old Jiang waiting with a rare smile at the door, he became somewhat interested.
“Is that your shop?”
“Of course, come on, Uncle Chen, please, don’t be modest, I’ll treat you to some great Spiritual Tea…”
Jiang was keen to invite Chen Dengming, then he turned back to the two disciples and said, “You two, take care of the recruitment registration…”
The two disciples forced a smile, cursing Jiang in their hearts.
Dammit, you’re going to suck up to the new Uncle, sitting in your shop drinking tea.
We are just two tools, we can’t butter up the Martial Uncle, nor do we have a cup of tea to drink.
In the crowd not far away, watching the commotion.
Li Xue looked up at her dad Li Rong, pouted her lips and whispered, “Dad, is this new Foundation Establishment cultivator so pompous?
When my uncle came to the Everjoy District, he didn’t make such a big deal, having people wait on him hand and foot.”
Li Rong’s face slightly changed, he covered Li Xue’s mouth, scolding her.
“Are you courting death, girl?
Can you criticize a Foundation Establishment cultivator?
Don’t think because your uncle is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, you can disrespect another one!”
Li Xue’s eyes flashed, unwilling but remained silent.
Li Rong shook his head and thought to himself, well, you are lucky, girl.
Not only are you protected by your uncle, but if your high uncle truly cares, he’ll look after you too.
