Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1721 - 1719: Humble Old Tang

All Phenomena Island, as the largest and most profound top-class Spirit Island in the All Phenomena Ocean, is located at the center of the All Phenomena Ocean.

It is one of the Spirit Islands directly governed by the native star system and is likewise the most valuable Spirit Island.

The renowned All Phenomena Merchants Guild is situated on this top-class Spirit Island.

However, this does not mean that All Phenomena Island only houses the All Phenomena Merchants Guild.

Normally, a Spirit Island that opens up various trade activities to the outside is divided into two parts: one part serves as the residence for its own cultivators, and the other as the trading area.

Just like Unparalleled Island in the past, when Chu Shen was planning, it was indeed based on this model.

All Phenomena Island is naturally similar; only thirty percent of the entire island is open to outsiders, whereas the remaining seventy percent is off-limits to them. This section houses many native star system cultivators, each with their own cave residence for cultivation, and the Spirit Jade Vein of All Phenomena Island is located in this area.

At the same time, All Phenomena Island is the only Spirit Island in the entire All Phenomena Ocean that has Sun Blaze experts stationed, totaling five in number.

These Sun Blaze powers are responsible for stationing in All Phenomena Ocean, rarely appearing in public, serving merely as a deterrence.

Initially, there weren't as many; originally, All Phenomena Island only had three Sun Blaze experts stationed, because three were already sufficient.

But since Ma Bin infiltrated All Phenomena Island last time, single-handedly battling three and decisively killing one, the All Phenomena Galaxy increased the number of Sun Blaze experts.

Increasing the numbers was necessary, to avoid feeling insecure. Now, with five Sun Blaze experts gathered at All Phenomena Island, the previous tragedy will surely not happen again.

At this moment, outside one of the Sun Blaze expert's short-stay palaces on All Phenomena Island, a figure is waiting respectfully; it is none other than the old fellow Tang Jun.

An ordinary person cannot enter this area, and Tang Jun managed to do so by paying a steep price to have someone introduce him. As for why he came, naturally it was to seek a meeting with the Sun Blaze expert inside the palace.

Though anxious inside, he does not show it outwardly.

It is unknown how long he waited outside before a young man leisurely walked out from the palace. The young man seemed not very old, with a fair complexion and no beard, his cultivation not very high, appearing to be at the Constellation Mid-Stage, yet he carried himself with an air of superiority.

Seeing him emerge, Tang Jun hurriedly approached with a smile, enthusiastically saying, "Brother Yuan, how is it?"

The Constellation referred to as Brother Yuan by Tang Jun is named Yuan Cheng, and having the qualification to enter and exit such a place reveals an uncommon status.

Yuan Cheng still carried himself with hands behind his back, glancing at Tang Jun disdainfully, "What are you saying? Who is your brother? Don't call people old!"

Tang Jun, startled, continued to smile, "My mistake, my mistake, it's Fellow Daoist Yuan, I apologize for the impudence, please forgive me!"

In other places, for someone like Tang Jun, at Moon Jade Mid-Stage, to call a Constellation Mid-Stage person brother would be quite respectful, but Yuan Cheng was not pleased to hear it, so Tang Jun had no choice, especially since he needed something, he could only continue to lower himself.

Yuan Cheng pointed at him, like a parent reprimanding a child, "Be more careful next time!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Tang Jun repeatedly nodded, showing no hint of Moon Jade grandeur, cautiously glanced towards the palace, and quietly asked, "So what does Governor Yuan mean…"

The five Sun Blaze experts stationed here are governors of the All Phenomena Ocean, so Tang Jun's title is appropriate.

Yuan Cheng shook his head, "I haven't seen the ancestor; the ancestor is still in seclusion. You should come back another time."

Although he had expected this, Tang Jun's heart was still disappointed. With insufficient strength, he couldn't even send favors, a truly awkward and bleak situation.

He forced a smile and asked, "Then when will Governor Yuan come out of seclusion?"

Yuan Cheng glanced at him sideways, "What? Does the ancestor need to report to you when he comes out of seclusion? Why don't you go in and ask yourself?" Saying this, he stepped aside.

"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Tang Jun was startled and quickly explained, "I was just casually asking, nothing else. I've long heard of Governor Yuan's great reputation, and wanted to pay a visit and listen to his teachings."

Yuan Cheng snorted coldly, "In this All Phenomena Ocean, the Moon Jade are countless, wanting to listen to the ancestor's teachings also depends on whether you have the qualification."

Tang Jun gritted his teeth, took out a pre-prepared storage ring from his sleeve, approached, and unobtrusively slipped it into Yuan Cheng's hand.

Yuan Cheng turned around and glared at him, "What are you doing?"

Tang Jun accompanied with a smile, "A small token, no respect intended, just hoping Fellow Daoist Yuan can notify me when the governor comes out, so I can come to pay respects again." Saying so, he lightly patted Yuan Cheng's hand.

Yuan Cheng scanned it with Mental Consciousness and knew the weight of the ring's contents, his expression somewhat easing, and he smiled, "No wonder they say old people become wise; you're quite adept at dealing with people. Alright, when the ancestor comes out, I'll tell you."

Tang Jun immediately showed gratitude, "Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist." Further saying, "Could Fellow Daoist please leave an audio talisman marking?"

Yuan Cheng became impatient again, waved his hand, "Why leave that thing? You go back, and when the time comes, I'll have someone inform you."

Tang Jun's expression darkened for a moment, but quickly returned to normal. He didn't dare to force the issue, lest he offend anyone, and immediately nodded, saying, "Alright, this old man will return to Three Realms Island first and quietly await your good news, Fellow Daoist."

Even though he knew there was little hope, he deliberately mentioned Three Realms Island, afraid that if they did need to notify him of something, they wouldn't be able to find him.

"Got it!"

"Then I bid farewell!" Tang Jun cupped his fist and seemingly carefree, turned to leave.

As he walked out of the area, Tang Jun looked back, couldn't help but sigh, his face full of worry, Three Realms Island... what will its future be?

The matter of seeking an audience with Sun Blaze was uncertain, he didn't even get to meet the person, and spent quite a lot of spirit jade for nothing. It should be noted, he not only gave spirit jade to Yuan Cheng but also spent a lot of resources and asked many people just to gain entry to that area.

This was still from the connections he accumulated while working on Unparalleled Island, otherwise, he wouldn't even have this path.

Three Realms Island indeed developed well at present, but as it developed better, in a place like All Phenomena Ocean, the hidden dangers grew larger!

Absentmindedly leaving All Phenomena Island, he took out an audio talisman and sent a message to Luan Xiao'e.

Soon there was a reply: "How did it go?"

"Didn't meet the person, said he was in seclusion."

Luan Xiao'e was puzzled: "Yuan Du is already Sun Blaze, why continue in seclusion?"

"They obviously don't want to see," Tang Jun hit the nail on the head, "Right now, the situation on Three Realms Island is still unclear, that's why at the Sun Blaze level no decisions will be made lightly. To meet Yuan Du, we still need to be strong enough ourselves, to show that we have the ability to hold Three Realms Island steady!"

Luan Xiao'e angrily said, "If we had the ability to hold Three Realms Island steady, why would we need him?" These words were indeed true, if the Three Worlds cultivators truly had the ability to stabilize Three Realms Island, there would be no need to seek help. Precisely because they lacked this ability, they needed to establish connections with Sun Blaze, hoping for some protection.

Tang Jun was helpless: "This is the general situation of All Phenomena Ocean."

Luan Xiao'e was silent for quite a while, then replied, "Come back first, be careful on the way." In the past, Luan Xiao'e wouldn't have looked favorably upon someone like Tang Jun, but after working with him for such a long time, she recognized his efforts and naturally didn't have a poor impression of him.

Especially in a place like All Phenomena Ocean, no matter how it was said, Tang Jun was a family member. Given the sensitive situation now, she naturally had to remind him a few things.

Tang Jun nodded: "I understand, I've already disguised myself when I came."

On Three Realms Island, Luan Xiao'e ended the transmission with Tang Jun, her eyebrows tightly knitted, her pretty face full of indignation.

Before coming to All Phenomena Ocean, she never imagined the survival rules of such a treasure land would be so complex. In fact, during the early development of Three Realms Island, she didn't encounter much trouble until recently when Three Realms Island rose up, bringing all sorts of troubles one after another.

Fortunately, Tang Jun had experience, otherwise relying on her alone, she simply couldn't maintain the situation.

But some things simply aren't solvable by mere experience. For the cultivator community, having strong strength and sufficient foundation is always the greatest card.

What Three Realms Island lacks right now is precisely these.

In short, to gain a foothold in All Phenomena Ocean, it's not just about casually planting a flag on a Spirit Island. You need to have the strength to stand firm, and at the same time, seek a suitable patron.

Luan Xiao'e frowned in thought, momentarily unsure of how to solve the problem. As she was feeling helpless, she suddenly sensed the big island-protecting array of Three Realms Island being activated.

She was startled, instinctively thinking an enemy was attacking. Recently, things had been unsettled on Three Realms Island, and an enemy attack wouldn't be unusual, but when she turned to look, she saw a familiar figure rapidly approaching.

Luan Xiao'e was stunned for a moment, then a look of joy appeared: "Junior Brother, you've returned? Why didn't you send a message!"

Lu Ye stopped in front of her, smiling slightly, before he could speak, Luan Xiao'e was again taken aback: "Junior Brother, have you reached Moon Jade?"

The mana fluctuations around Lu Ye were too distinctive, undoubtedly a sign of having advanced to Moon Jade.

Behind him, He Baichuan appeared, shaking his head and sighing: "Now with a new junior brother, the old junior brother is neglected, Senior Sister Luan, I'm a bit sad!"

Luan Xiao'e was dumbfounded: "Junior Brother He, how... how did you get here?"

Her surprise wasn't unfounded. She, too, had come to All Phenomena Ocean from the Jade Conch star system with Lu Ye, fully aware of the time it took. Lu Ye had left a year ago, and that time wasn't even enough to return to Jade Conch, so she couldn't fathom how He Baichuan appeared here.

He Baichuan looked even more saddened: "Is Senior Sister Luan not welcoming me? Then shall I leave?"

Luan Xiao'e glared at him: "Don't joke about!"

He Baichuan laughed heartily and opened his arms, walking towards Luan Xiao'e, seemingly wanting to give her a hug, saying, "Senior Sister, I've missed you terribly!"

Luan Xiao'e, not standing on ceremony, slapped him on the head, causing He Baichuan to pause in his steps.
