The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2708 - 2697: The Only Pride
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
In just a few breaths.
The white and black shadows stepped through the air and into the pavilion, and then they sat down on the stone chairs.
"Time flies. I still clearly remember the scenes when we ventured into various secret realms and dangerous places together. Now you all have become the ancestors of your respective families, haven’t you?" said the White Shadow Person with a sigh.
The Black Shadow Person also spoke: "Back then, you were only chasing behind us. Now, it’s us chasing behind you. Truly, the world is unpredictable!"
These two shadows, one white and one black, were none other than Old White, Wu Fengxian, and Old Black, Jiang Yuntian.
Since their last encounter with Ye Chenfeng in the Middle Realm, Old White Wu Fengxian and Old Black Jiang Yuntian had been training even harder. If their own disciples surpassed them this quickly, it would indeed be quite disgraceful.
Their adventures in the Middle Realm took them into numerous perilous places with life-or-death challenges. They were solely focused on improving their cultivation, aiming to someday trample He Kongsheng underfoot.
Old White and Old Black had always been exceptionally talented, and combined with their favorable fortunes, they indeed found opportunities suited to them, allowing them to both advance to the late Divine Emperor Realm.
After reaching the late Divine Emperor Realm, Old White and Old Black immediately traveled to the Upper World.
It was naturally very easy to find out the location of the Lin family in the Upper World, as the Lin family was one of the dominant families here.
Even with only late-stage Divine Emperor realm abilities, Old White and Old Black managed to sneak into the Lin family unnoticed and arrive at the back mountain of the Lin family.
"I’ve waited for you two for a long time. You’ve finally appeared! Today, we must drink several cups together," Lin Wentian waved his arm, and a giant wine jar and four cups appeared on the stone table in front of him. He filled all four cups with wine.
Without excessive chit-chat or excitement, Lin Wentian had always believed Old White and Old Black would return, so he had been waiting for this day as if everything was perfectly natural.
Old White Wu Fengxian picked up the wine cup, looked at Kong Nanzhi, and said, "Nanzhi, what’s wrong? Are you unfamiliar with us?"
Old Black Jiang Yuntian cursed, "Nanzhi, what are you standing there for? Drink this cup of wine first and then talk."
Old Black was the first to down the wine in his cup, with Old White and Lin Wentian following closely.
Only after Kong Nanzhi picked up his cup and downed it did he speak, "You two have finally returned!"
Although Kong Nanzhi had always believed He Kongsheng would be the future overlord, upon seeing Wu Fengxian and Jiang Yuntian again, he still displayed the brotherly bond they once had.
Seeing Kong Nanzhi not saying anything disruptive, Lin Wentian breathed a sigh of relief and continued pouring wine. "Come, come, let’s continue drinking," he said.
"Your disciples have been making quite a stir in the Upper World lately, with all sorts of rumors about them. Has that young one achieved the Double Supremacy?"
Although Lin Wentian practiced divination, it couldn’t be used recklessly. He had suffered quite heavily to determine the whereabouts of Old White and Old Black’s lingering souls.
Kong Nanzhi also asked, "Rumor has it your disciple is still a Divine Emperor Realm expert? How old is he now?"
Old White and Old Black had just arrived in the Upper World, having rushed straight here, so they hadn’t heard of Ye Chenfeng’s matters yet.
However, they understood their disciple’s style; as long as he appeared somewhere, there was bound to be trouble, something they had gotten used to.
After taking a sip from his cup, Old White Wu Fengxian held up three fingers.
Kong Nanzhi immediately said, "Your disciple is only three hundred years old?"
A Divine Emperor Realm expert at three hundred years old? And dual-cultivating in medicine and artifacts? Most importantly, reaching Double Supremacy?
Isn’t this nonsense!
Old White Wu Fengxian shook his head, "Our disciple is about thirty years old. He’s probably about to turn thirty-one."
At the mention of this.
Kong Nanzhi almost spat out his wine, his eyes nearly popping out. What kind of joke is this?
If Old White and Old Black’s disciple was only thirty years old, Kong Nanzhi could be one hundred percent sure that the current rumors were entirely false.
A thirty-year-old Double Supremacy?
A thirty-year-old Divine Emperor Realm expert?
Even dreaming wasn’t this exaggerated, it was simply impossible, absolutely impossible.
Lin Wentian nodded and said, "Seems those rumors are indeed false. When my Divine Sense projection met you two back then, that young one was only at the Nirvana Realm. Don’t play coy now, what is your disciple’s cultivation level at present?"
Old Black Jiang Yuntian said, "Alright, let’s not talk about that young one anymore. You’ll see for yourselves next time you meet him. Today is just for reminiscing."
Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi assumed Old White and Old Black were embarrassed to say, thinking Ye Chenfeng’s cultivation wasn’t high, likely still below the Earth God Realm, and they didn’t press any further.
Old White and Old Black exchanged glances, sharing a meaningful smile.
Old White privately voiced to Old Black, "What do you think their reaction will be when they find out everything is true?"
Old Black responded, "It’ll definitely be impressive. We have nothing to boast about in our lives, reduced to lingering souls by schemes, but that young one might be our only pride."
Unaware of the private conversation between Old White and Old Black, Kong Nanzhi asked, "Do you two have any plans now that you’re back?"
Old White Wu Fengxian’s eyes narrowed: "Does that even need to be asked? If we hadn’t been schemed by He Kongsheng back then, would we be in such a miserable state now? Otherwise, we would be close to achieving Eternal Life, perhaps even achieving it wouldn’t be impossible."
Old Black Jiang Yuntian’s face was filled with rage: "Our purpose in returning is to kill He Kongsheng and annihilate the Hes."
Lin Wentian directly said, "I support you both, the entire Lin family supports you both."
Old White and Old Black’s gaze fixed on Kong Nanzhi.
In Kong Nanzhi’s eyes, anger slowly ignited, and gradually his entire face filled with fury: "The anger towards He Kongsheng I’ve always suppressed. I know I might never be able to avenge my sister in this lifetime, but now that you both are back, I’ll go mad with you!"
But Old White and Old Black suddenly frowned and asked simultaneously, "What do you mean? What’s happened to Ruolan?"
