“Strongest Eight-Year-Old Divine Ancestor ... ”
“Jin Shan... it’s actually him…”
As the passage between the two realms vanished, everyone was momentarily stunned upon seeing who the celestial being was.
It had only been a few months since Jin Shan and the others ascended; how could he suddenly return to the Lower Realm?
And who was the middle-aged man standing next to Jin Shan?
“Do you want to die? How dare you call him by name? He’s a celestial now! If he hears you, you won’t even know how you died!”
The Four Ancestors of the Qilin Temple quietly reprimanded a Great Demon behind them.
The Great Demon from the God-Slaying Stage shrank back at those words, quickly stealing a glance at Jin Shan.
Seeing that Jin Shan seemed unaware of him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As the Four Ancestors said, Jin Shan was now a celestial being, no longer the same as before. It was unthinkable to address him as casually as in the past.
If he were to become displeased, it was entirely possible that he could wipe them out with a mere wave of his hand.
“Let’s go. Since we’re here, we must pay our respects,” said the Four Ancestors, their expression somewhat peculiar, before striding forward.
The Great Demons behind him also displayed expressions of unease.
They all knew that in the past, their Four Ancestors had never regarded Jin Shan highly.
But thinking about it, it made sense; Jin Shan was no longer what he used to be.
Even the Four Ancestors, standing before him, would likely have to bow their heads.
Just like the Four Ancestors, whether it was Baili Bo from the Ninefold Celestial Gate, or Aotian from the Ten Thousand Seas Dragon Palace, or even the White Jade Dragon Sovereign from the White Jade Dragon Palace, along with Wuma Xian'er and Nangong Xuandie, they all understood that since they had come and witnessed Jin Shan descending from the Upper Realm, they must respectfully pay their respects.
Jin Shan wore a faint smile on his face, his complexion rosy. With a gentle sweep of his Spiritual Sense, he took in the expressions of those around him.
Seeing everyone bustling toward him, he felt quite satisfied.
However, he had no time to dwell on it and quickly turned to the middle-aged man beside him, who carried a celestial sword on his back, and said with a smile, “Sikong Senior Brother, this is where our Suspended King Sword Sect is located in the Lower Realm.”
The middle-aged man, named Sikong Shan, was a powerful Celestial Being who had reached the First-Rank Celestial realm.
He was far beyond Jin Shan, who had just ascended to the Ascension Realm, so Jin Shan showed great respect toward Sikong Shan.
Sikong Shan smiled and replied, “I often hear some of my fellow brothers mention that our Suspended King Sword Sect still has roots in the Lower Realm. I didn’t expect to have the fortune of returning with you, Jin Shan Junior Brother. This is indeed wonderful.”
“Indeed, Senior Brother Sikong,” Jin Shan said proudly with a smile. “Our Suspended King Sword Sect is also an Overlord-level force in the Lower Realm. If you have any needs while you’re here, just let me know; I’ll take care of it.”
“Good, good,” Sikong Shan nodded in satisfaction, a hint of lewdness flashing in his eyes.
At that moment, Xiao You had already led a group of Suspended King Sword Sect disciples forward. They all looked excited as they deeply bowed to Jin Shan and said, “We welcome the Sect Master back.”
Seeing Xiao You approach, Jin Shan’s smile faded as he adopted a more authoritative demeanor. “Xiao You, I am no longer the Sect Master of the Suspended King Sword Sect; you are now. From now on, just call me Jin Xian.”
Xiao You immediately responded respectfully, “Yes, Jin Xian.”
“Good, that’s right.”
Jin Shan nodded in satisfaction and then pointed to Sikong Shan beside him. “This is our Senior Brother from the Upper Realm; you should pay your respects.”
“Senior Brother from the Suspended King Sword Sect in the Upper Realm…”
Xiao You and the others showed a hint of confusion upon hearing Jin Shan’s words.
Jin Shan spoke proudly, “That’s right. I only learned after ascending that our Suspended King Sword Sect still has a presence in the Upper Realm and remains an Overlord-level force. As for many predecessors who have ascended over the years, most are now cultivating within our Sect in the Upper Realm.”
A loud rumble echoed through the air.
At Jin Shan's words, Xiao You and the others couldn't help but shudder, their faces filled with disbelief as they looked at Jin Shan and Sikong Shan.
The Suspended King Sword Sect actually had a sect in the Upper Realm, and it was also of Overlord level...
The Upper Realm! That is the place where immortals reside.
Yet, not only did their Suspended King Sword Sect have a sect in the Upper Realm, but it was also of Overlord level. This was truly shocking news.
"Are you not going to pay your respects to Sikong Senior Brother?"
Jin Shan's authoritative tone reminded them as he glanced at the astonished Xiao You and the others.
Hearing this, Xiao You and the others quickly suppressed their shock and respectfully bowed to Sikong Shan, saying, "Lower Realm Suspended King Sword Sect Xiao You pays respects to Sikong Senior Brother."
Xiao You held a high status within the Suspended King Sword Sect, being of the same generation as Jin Shan.
Thus, Jin Shan referred to Sikong Shan as Senior Brother, and Xiao You directly addressed him as such.
Behind Xiao You, the other disciples of the Suspended King Sword Sect also hurriedly bowed and greeted, "Disciples pay respects to both Masters Ancestor..."
"Haha, no need for formalities," Sikong Shan laughed heartily and waved his hand.
The disciples quickly expressed their gratitude with respectful expressions.
Jin Shan commanded, "Xiao You, order someone to prepare the finest feast."
"Yes." Xiao You nodded respectfully and gave the orders.
At that moment, the Four Ancestors of Qilin Temple and other Great Demons appeared.
From the Ten Thousand Seas Dragon Palace came Aotian, Ao He, Ao Guang, and other Great Demons.
The powerful figures of the Ninefold Celestial Gate, including Baili Bo, were present.
Also among them were the White Jade Dragon Sovereign, Wuma Xian'er, and Nangong Xuandie, along with other strong individuals nearby. They all approached Jin Shan and Sikong Shan, bowing deeply as they said, "We pay our respects to the two immortals."
At that moment, everyone’s eyes reflected a deep shock, their hearts far from calm.
They had all heard Jin Shan's words just moments ago; how could they not be astonished?
Moreover, the middle-aged man before them was referred to as "Senior Brother" by Jin Shan, which meant he was undoubtedly an immensely powerful immortal.
"Haha, Four Ancestors, Baili Bo, Aotian, Ao He, Aoguang, long time no see," Jin Shan laughed heartily as he surveyed the crowd. He then introduced Sikong Shan, saying, "Senior Brother Sikong, these individuals are all from Overlord-level forces like our Suspended King Sword Sect in the Lower Realm."
"Oh?"
Sikong Shan merely glanced dismissively at Baili Bo and the others from the Ninefold Celestial Gate, seemingly uninterested in the others.
Everyone could sense this attitude but did not show any signs of discontent.
After all, the person before them was an immortal from the Upper Realm, and it was only natural for someone from an Overlord-level force like the Suspended King Sword Sect to look down on those from the Lower Realm.
Suddenly, Sikong Shan's gaze seemed to catch sight of Wuma Xian'er and Nangong Xuandie standing not far away. His eyes brightened as he asked, "Junior Brother Jin Shan, who are these two young ladies?"
