After Zhou Yuan spent half a day with Old Xuan at the rear of the mountain and emptied the jar of wine, he arranged a time to meet with Old Xuan tomorrow and left.
As Zhou Yuan walked away, he suddenly halted his steps because he saw a beautiful figure in a white dress floating on the nearby rocks like a fairy. Her fine black hair fluttered gracefully and she radiated an ethereal aura.
He stared at the familiar figure, smiled and, with one step, appeared beside the figure.
“Senior sister Qingchan, I haven't seen you in years, your elegance is still the same as before.” Zhou Yuan laughed heartily.
“How could I be compared to you? You are the leader of the Cangxuan Alliance. No one is more powerful than you in the entire Cangxuan Heaven.” Li Qingchan turned around, her face outstandingly beautiful and a hint of a smile curved her lips.
“News spread so fast…” Zhou Yuan looked a little helpless. “If it weren’t because the four great sacred sects wouldn’t accept anyone as leader and dragged on this matter for years, I wouldn’t have brought such trouble onto myself.”
The identity of Cangxuan Alliance leader had no attractive force to him. After all, given his cultivation level, as long as he reached the Saint stage, he would be an authority regardless where he goes. So-called power and influence couldn’t be compared to one’s own strength.
Li Qingchan was well-aware of Zhou Yuan’s personality and his potential. She raised her beautiful face and gazed at the starry sky, saying in a quiet voice, “Unknowingly, junior brother Zhou Yuan has already reached such a stage. You are now the pride of our Cangxuan Sect.”
Zhou Yuan chuckled. “Over ten years have passed but senior sister Qingchan is still as beautiful as when we met. I still remember when I first saw you…”
His words ended abruptly because he saw Li Qingchan irritatedly looked away and her stunning and fair face flushed with embarrassment.
Zhou Yuan looked confused for a moment, but memories rapidly flashed across his mind and he understood what the problem was. The first time he met Li Qingchan was during the Genesis reservoir ceremony…
Li Qingchan’s beautiful body was covered in a sheer fabric and she was soaking in a hot spring, but his head suddenly popped out from the steaming water and dazedly met Li Qingchan’s gaze.
The memory scene stopped there. Zhou Yuan's expression turned a little strange and the atmosphere became awkward and quiet.
Zhou Yuan simply wanted to slap himself in the face. It was because of that incident that Li Qingchan hunted him down to kill him and it was Yaoyao who saved him in the end.
That awkward atmosphere lasted for a good while until Li Qingchan inhaled deeply and suppressed her flushing. “I came to inform you that Chu Qing and the others heard you came back so they want to invite you to dinner at the Hundred Aroma House. If alliance leader Zhou Yuan accepts our invitation, we will be waiting for you at the Hundred Aroma House.”
As her voice faded, she had already turned into a steam of light and streaked across the night sky. It was just that her graceful and fairy-like figure seemed to be frantically running away.
Zhou Yuan scratched his head awkwardly and then turned his head towards the Cangxuan Sect, as though reminiscing the past. “Hundred Aroma House…”
Back then, the Hundred Aroma House was the most luxurious place to new disciples like Zhou Yuan. Even Zhou Yuan, who was a prince from the Great Zhou Empire, drooled at the delicious fine food there. It was extremely enjoyable to eat there with friends after returning from a mission or after practice.
Zhou Yuan smiled. Once the Cangxuan Alliance was officially established, the entire Cangxuan Heaven would be involved and it would be impossible to have such leisurely and enjoyable time anymore.
Therefore, since he still had some free time now, he should catch up with some old friends.
...
Hundred Aroma House.
That night the Hundred Aroma House was closed but the inside was brightly lit. It didn’t allow any customers in and many Cangxuan Sect disciples could only watch curiously.
“Someone booked out the entire Hundred Aroma House? Who could it be?!”
“Didn’t the sect issue a new rule that no one can privately reserve the entire Hundred Aroma House? Who dares to break the rules?”

“You receive news so slow. It was elders Chu Qing and Li Qingchan who booked out the entire Hundred Aroma House. Also, do you know who they invited to dinner? It’s our senior brother Zhou Yuan, whose name is known throughout all-heavens!”
“Senior brother Zhou Yuan?! Our legendary senior brother?!”
“I heard that senior brother Zhou Yuan returned today and combined the four great sacred sects to form the Cangxuan Alliance to fight against the Sacred Palace. Also, senior brother Zhou Yuan is the leader of the Cangxuan Alliance!”
“Impressive…senior brother Zhou Yuan is indeed the most outstanding disciple in the history of the Cangxuan Sect.”
“......”
A feast was organized on the top floor.
A smooth bald head was always the most eye-catching feature, but even so, it didn’t affect senior brother Chu Qing’s handsomeness.
“Junior Brother Zhou Yuan, thank you for hiding my brilliance. Otherwise the title of most outstanding disciple in the history of the Cangxuan Sect would fall on me. I would be in so much pain that I don’t want to live if that happened,” Chu Qing gratefully said to Zhou Yuan.
Li Qingchan, Ye Ge and the others could only roll their eyes, thinking that he was so thick-skinned. However, they also understood that those were indeed Chu Qing’s heartfelt words. He was so lazy that he would rather disguise himself as the most ordinary disciple because that means no one would give him all sorts of tasks and missions.
“Senior brother Chu Qing, you don't need to thank me. My brilliance can’t be concealed so easily. I have already tried my best to keep a low-profile but my strength won’t allow me to do so.” Zhou Yuan sighed as he raised his wine glass and clinked Chu Qing’s.
Chu Qing nodded. “I understand, I understand.”
Li Qingchan couldn't stand them any longer and interrupted, “Enough. Don’t affect our appetite.”
However, a nostalgic smile lit up everyone’s faces as they looked at each other. This was the first time that Zhou Yuan returned to the Cangxuan Sect after all the changes. The people present, such as Kong Sheng, have had several conflicts with Zhou Yuan in the past, but when they think back to those times, they had to say they were too young and reckless.
While Zhou Yuan was reminiscing about the past with everyone, he suddenly felt something and turned his head to see a chubby figure on the stairs. He occasionally cast furtive glances over and his eyes were filled with curiosity and respect.
The figure panicked when he saw Zhou Yuan’s gaze and hurriedly shrank back and was about to leave.
But just as he moved, he found he was standing in front of the table with beads of cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
The banquet fell silent.
Zhou Yuan stared at the somewhat chubby figure in front of him. The chubby man’s face was ugly and scars covered his body like centipedes. He was wearing a chef robe, and he couldn’t help rubbing his hands nervously while sweat ran down his face like rain.
Additionally, he didn’t exude the slightest wave of Genesis Qi, and it wasn’t that he concealed it but he had none.
Zhou Yuan calmly stared at the chubby man’s ugly face. The man’s head was hung low and he avoided his gaze, but his eyes were filled with complex emotions and it was unknown whether they were anticipation or fear.
Zhou Yuan finally shifted his gaze away. The chubby man heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly wanted to escape.
But Zhou Yuan's voice made him freeze.
“Shen Wanjin…”
“How did you become like this?”
Looking at the man’s almost unrecognizable face, Zhou Yuan remembered a little chubby man who followed him everywhere and always addressed him as little Yuan bro and Yaoyao as little Yao sis.
