Originally, Shen Xiang didn't plan on going to stop the commotion, but he was short of Celestial Crystals and also wanted to see if he could pick up a couple dragon tails on the side for the purpose of refining Dragon Pills to satisfy his cravings. So, after discussing with Long Xuyi and the others, he decided to join in on the festivities and check if there were any good items to be picked up, even attempting to loot a Celestial Fellow-Traveler's corpse for the Heaven Pill inside.
Shen Xiang, who had in mind to make profits from the dead, traversed through this huge Celestial Palace on foot towards the central area, seeking opportunities to gain some benefits along the way. He felt that he would be disrespectful to his ancestors by not taking advantage of this opportunity.
"Looks like there's no major battle here, I've come for nothing!" Shen Xiang felt a sense of disappointment while walking along the path, noticing that many people seemed to be going about their business as usual.
There were empty spaces around the Celestial Palace where people usually fought. Shen Xiang passed by many deserted forests, but didn't encounter any significant battles.
"Perhaps it hasn't started yet. These types of rivalries usually lead to major battles, maybe the Royal Dragon Clan and the Imperial Feather Clan met and engaged in a display of power." Long Xuyi said.
In the outer circle of the main palace, Shen Xiang couldn't even afford a house. Now that he was in the central area, he realized that lying on the streets might get him chased away.
"The Central Region of the Thousand Pill Celestial Kingdom is indeed impressive. I would like to steal a paving stone and sell it."
Shen Xiang walked on the paving stones, realizing that they were made from a special stone with spiritual patterns that could accumulate Celestial Energy. This resulted in the central region being incredibly full of Celestial Energy, and upon examining a single paving stone, he noticed that the spiritual patterns were deep and intricate.
It was difficult for someone without abilities to survive in such a place, as even the simplest actions required spending large amounts of Celestial Crystals.
"It seems like only someone as impoverished as me would have the idea of sleeping on the streets." Shen Xiang sighed inwardly, looking at the flashy-looking passers-by.
"There's actually a person sleeping on the ground in front of you! You can go and join him!" Long Xuyi chuckled.
As Shen Xiang looked ahead, he found an old man lying by the entrance of a pill shop looking dirty. The old man held a large bone like a broom, with the meat already eaten off of it.
This person, in this dazzling central area, stood out like a sore thumb. Some passers-by wrinkled their brows slightly, but strangely, the old man wasn't chased away.
Shen Xiang approached and wanted to find out what kind of godly existence this was, as sleeping like that seemed like being at home.
When he walked closer, after a moment of surprise, he realized that it was his teacher, Huang Jintian!
"It's this old lunatic I didn't even notice!" Long Xuyi was also surprised.
Huang Jintian noticed a middle-aged man staring at him with wide eyes, causing him to raise his head and shout, "What are you looking at Haven't you seen people sleeping on the street before Can you sleep here too Do you have the skin for it like mine If not, get lost and don't use jealous eyes to look at my father in law's peaceful dreams."
Shen Xiang wanted to go over and kick him in the legs quickly, then run away as fast as possible.
"Look at my feet!"
He immediately went over and kicked Huang Jintian, his speed was fast but Huang Jintian dodged quickly, avoiding the kick that came from Shen Xiang.
"Damn, gentlemen don't use their hands but you didn't even move your hand and used your feet." Huang Jintian was furious, only to realize Shen Xiang had already disappeared.
Shen Xiang had run like a rabbit in the street, knowing of Huang Jintian's temper and fearing being beaten up publicly if caught.
"You can't escape!"
Huang Jintian hadn't realized that it was Shen Xiang, he only found the person annoying and decided to take a look at him because of his sleeping on the streets, especially annoyed by this person's fast pace.
Earlier, everyone thought that there would be a scene of thugs fighting in the street, but Shen Xiang's lightning-fast treasure hunting speed made many people feel ashamed of themselves while watching him, and it was even more surprising that the old man who slept in the street also moved quickly.
"The Central Region of the Thousand Pill Celestial Kingdom truly has hidden talents!"
"Looks like there's no fun without some skills. Otherwise, you would definitely be beaten to death if caught."
Shen Xiang wasn't actually bored, he just used this method to lead Huang Jintian to an unpopulated area. Of course, he could have communicated telepathically but worried that his eccentric teacher would beat him up without a second thought if he was found out.
Finally, Shen Xiang sprinted away and shouted, "Master, it's me, Shen Xiang," as he reached a secluded grassland away from the crowd.
"What Little scoundrel, you dared to challenge me in the street! Do you want to live" Huang Jintian immediately shouted, speeding up and catching up with Shen Xiang in an instant before punching him.
Shen Xiang quickly dodged, avoiding the flurry of punches.
"Master, why are you here I came to Heaven Realm and looked everywhere for you, but couldn't find you," Shen Xiang changed the subject while asking.
Huang Jintian wasn't taken in by his words, throwing punches and using strong moves that carried a fierce dragon power.
Huang Jintian's strength was strong, and Shen Xiang couldn't match him head-on even with the Heaven Saint Body. Being struck by him was still painful, so he could only dodge.
After a brief fight, Huang Jintian was anxious because he couldn't hit Shen Xiang and was being dodged by him using a strange technique.
Huang Jintian suddenly stopped, asking seriously, "Are you also here"
Shen Xiang sighed in relief, walked over, and said, "I'm here because…
Before he could finish speaking, Huang Jintian suddenly moved behind him and gave him a heavy punch. Shen Xiang was prepared, knowing Huang Jintian's moves well from previous encounters and using space teleportation to evade.
"Hmph, too cunning. You can use such strange movements, I’m not going to fight you." Huang Jintian said but Shen Xiang didn't believe him and kept his distance.
Shen Xiang chuckled, "Master, I know you're here to see if my strength has improved. You care about me."
Huang Jintian combed his messy hair, saying, "Young chap, your wings are finally strong!"
"Why did you come here Things are complicated now," Huang Jintian said. "Let me explain, I heard that there would be members of the Royal Dragon Clan appearing here and planned to kill a couple dragon tails."
Shen Xiang was taken aback, realizing that his eccentric teacher had such a strange idea.
"I'm here to make profits," Shen Xiang said solemnly.er, why don't you go and ask him for the Taiji Dragon Lowering Method instead of me Aren't you just thinking I'm weak”“The Wind Family and White Sea Holy Land sent five elders to ambush me today, stea...
