Chapter 1059 (1/2)
“A core member of the North Qiong Sect?”
Chen Fan frowned.
Fang Qiong, his parents, Chen Huaian, Sister An, Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa, A’Xiu and Yu Wenjin were the core of the North Qiong Sect, followed by the backbone members of the sect, including Xie Yan and Hua Yunfeng. They had become Connate Cultivators a decade before. If they were still alive, they should have entered the Golden Core Level by then. After that, there were some elders at the Immortal State or the family members of the Chen family.
They were the only core members of the North Qiong Sect, none of the rest were. Those Chen Fan had met during this time were basically normal members.
“I’m not sure who exactly this person is, but he’ll certainly be there.” Auntie Tang nodded. She looked exhausted. She seemed to have been running around for Chen Fan’s sake during this time.
“Hm, thank you, Auntie Tang. I understand.” Chen Fan nodded and felt really grateful for her help.
He finally decided to stay. After all, Auntie Tang was so willing to help and it didn’t matter even if he couldn’t find anything in the end.
The gathering was called the “Jiang Bei Cultivation Grand Event.” There was advertising about it everywhere.
Considered the most popular gathering of high-level cultivators in Jiang Bei, it was held once a year and was the signature event of the province. Every year, martial artists and cultivators in the surrounding provinces made their way over.
Other than the Immortal State Warriors, some young cultivators would also attend the event. This was the fastest way to become recognized cultivators in Jiang Bei and the few neighboring provinces. A lot of television stations, media and platforms were live-broadcasting the event. The whole world would immediately know when someone won a match.
“You’re going too? You don’t have any powers. You didn’t even dare to accept Lu Yang’s challenge, either… Why would you go to a cultivation event?” Jiang Feifei said.
“Xiao Fei, how can you talk to your brother like that?” Auntie Tang said.
Jiang Feifei could only apologize. Although she was mature and she would never make a fuss about little things, she still felt upset at this moment. After that, she kept playing with her phone along the way.
Chen Fan was happy about it.
Out of expectation, the venue used for the event was not located in Jiang Bei, but near the border of Dong Jiang Province. As they approached their destination, Chen Fan became more and more serious. He was very familiar with this place.
Qin Yang County!
In his previous life, Zhou Tianhao had invited Chen Fan to this place. He met his first disciple, A’Xiu, and defeated Linhu, rising to the top of Jiang Bei.
“Is this a reincarnation?”
Chen Fan didn’t believe in destiny, but this was a truly eerie coincidence. He felt like he would meet an old acquaintance there, or even a few, but he had no idea as to who.
Qin Yang County was considerably larger than it used to be. It had become a small, yet crowded city, especially by countless martial artists, spell casters and cultivators flooding in for the Jiang Bei Cultivation Grand Event.
Chen Fan said his goodbyes to Auntie Tang and walked around the city.
The people who walked past him were basically Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Some were Ethereal Enlightenment Grandmasters and there were even a couple of Immortal State Warriors. All of them were fierce and the crowd always made way for them.
“How flouris.h.i.+ng!” Chen Fan exclaimed.
Qin Yang County was just a small town back then. The guest house from before only had two floors and A’Xiu was one of the employees there. At the moment, there were tall buildings everywhere and the concentration of cultivators was much denser than in normal cities. There were all kinds of cultivation stores on the streets and virtually everyone had powers. It was almost a cultivation city.
A familiar voice came. “Oh, Brother Chen, you’re here too?”
Chen Fan turned around and saw Yan Junze with a bunch of Young Masters and Young Ladies behind him. Yan Junze immediately walked over and introduced Chen Fan to his friends.
But those Young Masters and Young Ladies from the rich families in Chu Zhou City had already seen how Chen Fan had rejected Lu Yang, so they only nodded. Some girls even had a trace of disdain in their eyes.
