Jiang Chen poured a cup of wine for the blind old man.

CLOMP, CLOMP, CLOMP...

Angelina, wearing a mask, appeared outside the tavern, instantly spotting Jiang Chen, who wasn't wearing a mask at the moment. Jiang Chen also felt Angelina's presence.

Angelina strode up to Jiang Chen, visibly upset. She demanded, "Why didn't you take me with you?"

"It's dangerous."

So this is your so-called danger? You are clearly just here drinking, Angelina fumed internally.

"Dangerous or not, you must take me with you next time. I only found out you were here after asking Arno because I couldn't find you."

Angelina sat beside him, grabbed Jiang Chen's cup, and took a sip of the wine. As soon as she swallowed, her throat burned painfully, and she coughed a few times. It was obvious she wasn't accustomed to the drink here. "What kind of wine is this?"

"I don't know what it is either. If you can't drink it, then don't."

Angelina looked at the blind old man beside her, her eyes casting a sidelong glance that seemed to ask, Who is this old man?

"A guest, a stranger to me."

Angelina stood up and extended her right hand, "Hello, my name is Angelina."

The blind old man took a look but did not extend his right hand. Instead, he held his cup with his left hand, "We don't have the tradition of shaking hands."

"Oh..." Feeling helpless, Angelina sat down. This old man has such a peculiar character, she thought, her gaze slipping to the side.

The blind old man asked, "Is this your woman?"

"Yeah."

"She's no ordinary woman!"

Jiang Chen glanced over. This blind man wasn't just anybody; he could tell Angelina was extraordinary. Could he be a master? A peerless master? In movie plots, isn't it about finding a master, learning a mysterious Swordsmanship, and then seeking revenge and dominating the world...? I've become the freakin' protagonist of a movie!

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "She's just a Priest. What's so extraordinary about that? You're joking."

The old man did not speak but continued to drink. After seeing him finish, Jiang Chen poured him another cup.

At that moment, Jiang Chen felt as though he heard a voice: *A woman with God's Seal is naturally not simple.*

Jiang Chen looked around, left and right. He looked back at the old man in front of him, who was not speaking.

Could it be I've awakened a new system? Am I able to hear the old man's internal monologue?

*No need to look around. This is a Voice transmission secret technique; no one else can hear or see it, only you.*

Damn, what new system? It's just this old man speaking!

But a Voice transmission secret technique? That sounds awesome!

Jiang Chen said, "Boss, arrange a private room."

This old man must be a master. I'd better quickly arrange a private room and attend to him well. Perhaps I might even learn a trick or two!

Soon, the three of them were seated in a private room.

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Senior, could you teach me a few moves?"

"Teach you?"

"Yes, aren't you the legendary master from the Ancient Faction, one who could impart skills like the All Wan Jian Gui Clan Technique, the Six Pulse Divine Sword, and also methods like the shift in the world?"

The blind old man was taken aback. What are these bizarre names he's coming up with? I know of the All Wan Jian Gui Clan Technique; it's the ultimate skill of the Sword Sect, but I don't know it myself, he thought.

"You're a Hero, incapable of learning our Strength. Nor can I impart it to you, unless you give up your Badge and become a true Wanderer. Only then would I consider taking you as a disciple."

Learn from you? And you want me to give up my Badge? Are you kidding me! Besides, I don't even know how to relinquish the Badge, and I'd never give up the Strength of the Badge anyway. You're still *considering*? I don't even need to think about it!

"Then forget it, I won't give it up," Jiang Chen refused the offer outright.

"There is something I want to know."

"What is it?"

"Did Bai Yun ever challenge a God, only to fail in the end?"

"How do you know that?"

"So, it is true."

The blind man nodded. "Yes, he failed. He couldn't defeat God. We are all looking for the way to become a god, to give the Wanderers a world of their own."

"Is Bai Yun really that strong?"

The blind man fell silent, unable to answer that question since he had never seen Bai Yun. "I don't know if he's strong, but you definitely can't beat him with your current strength."

Jiang Chen had no intention of challenging Bai Yun. Anyone capable of challenging a God was naturally very powerful, certainly far beyond his current capabilities.

The two continued to drink.

As they drank, Jiang Chen turned and left.

The blind man coughed. "That, about covering all my expenses for eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling for the next ten years... you're covering all that, right?"

Jiang Chen hadn't expected him to ask that. He turned back with a smile and said, "Yes."

"Finally, I have a place to stay. I've got to go and try out a certain place... see if it's still of any use."

Damn it... This old guy. I suspect I've been tricked by him, Jiang Chen thought.

Jiang Chen left with Angelina, returning to the Xileruo World.

The blind old man drank on his own. A Reincarnated God... Pity it's only a Priest God, he mused.

「Inside the room.」

The Servant reported, "Madam, Jiang Chen has left one hundred million. For the next ten years, all of the blind man's expenses for food, drink, whoring, and gambling are covered."

Jin Yunxi was taken aback, not expecting him to be serious. This kid must be crazy!

The customer had already paid. What else could they do but serve him willingly and well? "Then let him stay."

"But..."

"But what?"

"But he asked us to take him to stroll through the Green Building..."

Jin Yunxi stared in disbelief.

「Back in the villa.」

Angelina couldn't wait to ask, "Who is that old man?"

"I'm not clear either. He could be a master, or he could be a scoundrel, or maybe a combination of both. Anyway, I can't see through him."

Angelina didn't understand why he would leave one hundred million. If it were for the upkeep of a beautiful woman, Angelina could understand, but supporting a blind old man? She couldn't fathom it.

Could it be that Jiang Chen has some kind of special proclivity?

Luckily, Jiang Chen couldn't read Angelina's mind; otherwise, he'd probably be so angry he'd vomit three liters of blood.

Jiang Chen, noticing Angelina's strange look, said, "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing?"

"If it's nothing, then let's sleep. I'm tired."

"Oh," Angelina muttered, crawling into bed, still pondering the question.

The only thing I can be sure of is that the blind old man must be a master; he saw through my identity in a glance, Jiang Chen thought. I'll have to find an opportunity to ask Ba Jie about this old man's background.

「At the same time, the blind old man was walking on the street.」

A group of The Fallen followed behind him, the leader being the middle-aged man from the conflict in the tavern.

The Servant sensed danger and whispered, "Old man, we're out now. If you encounter any danger outside, we won't help."

"We can only ensure your safety within the Cloud End Bar."

The blind old man nodded. "I know. You just wait for me ahead; I'll find my way there."

"Okay."

The Servant hurriedly left. Facing a dozen Wanderers, he didn't want any conflict; skirmishes and bloodshed were all too common in the martial world.

The blind old man stopped, sighed, and said, "You all have fallen, and even I have fallen."

After saying that, he extended his right hand. Several bolts of Thunder and Lightning shot from his hand, instantly killing the dozen men. Then he walked away nonchalantly.

Aggie, observing his actions, frowned deeply. "So strong."

Christie Burton nodded. "Indeed very strong. A member of the Ancient Faction. Truly ancient Martial Arts. Jiang Chen's eye for talent is not bad, actually being able to tell that this old man is a master."
