Jiang Chen and Big Yellow shifted their gaze to the voice and saw an old man with ragged clothes pestering the guards of the entrance door. The old man looked very scrawny, totally neglectful of his appearance. His beard was shabby and his hair was a mess.

“What a group of bastards that look down on people! Do you have any idea who I am? At the time when I crossed the Eastern Profound Domain, you brats weren’t even born yet.”

The old man put his hand on his waist and showed a proud look.

“You lying son of a b*tch ! Don’t you know what place this is? Don’t let me see you again! Your presence is affecting the grandeur of Futian Manor.”

The guard waved his hand casually, seeming annoyed, but he didn’t attack the old man. Apparently, the guard thought of himself as an incomparably noble person, as though by staining himself with the Qi of this manor would instantly turn one noble. So if a noble person wasted his time to teach some lowly man common sense, it would be equivalent to throwing away his identity.

“Such a snob! Bah!”

The filthy old man seemed offended. He flicked his sleeves, spun and left. Obviously, this wasn’t his first time trying to enter the manor. Unfortunately, he failed every time. The guards, however, were decent enough not to hit the old man.

“Hey, old furry thing, you can come in, but you have to take out 10 high grade Immortal Meta Stones.”

Another guard mocked the old man. Then, the few of them burst into laughter. It turned out that they were treating this old man as an amusement, knowing that he wouldn’t be able to take out ten high grade Immortal Meta Stones.

“This is a joke. This old man will go wherever I want in Eastern Profound Domain. Who would dare to take my money?”

The old man still showed a proud-looking face, but the truth was he didn’t even have ten high grade Immortal Meta Stones.

Jiang Chen didn’t put this little interlude in his heart. He strode towards the front gate of the manor. At this time, the old liar saw Jiang Chen and immediately revealed a smiling face that he thought was a kind face. He then walked towards Jiang Chen by swaying his buttocks left and right. Upon seeing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but frown. He had just arrived here and didn’t want trouble; this old dude looked just like one.

“Young Master. You must have come from far away. If this old man is not mistaken, this should be Young Master’s first time arriving in Eastern Profound Domain?”

The old liar stroke his beard, showing the look of a man with high virtue.

“Oh? How can you tell that I’m coming here for the first time?”

Jiang Chen was stunned, he couldn’t help but glance another time at the old man. He didn’t intend to bother the old liar, but the fact that the old man could discern his identity at first glance aroused his interest. At least, he needed answers for that.

“This old man knows about astronomy and geography. There’s nothing in the Heavens and Earth that I don’t know. I can see dark patches at the center of your forehead. You will certainly be in trouble in the future. If you can take out a hundred high grade Immortal Meta Stones, I will help you to break it and solve your future troubles,” said the old liar casually.

After listening to him, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but roll his eyes, then ignored the old liar and continued striding towards the front gate of the manor.

“Hey-hey! Don’t you Young Master! You don’t have to give 100 high grade Immortal Meta Stones. You only have to bring me in.”

Seeing failure in his attempt to deceive, the old man quickly chased after Jiang Chen. It wasn’t easy for him to encounter a newcomer, so he naturally wouldn’t miss it.

“Beat it!”

When they saw Jiang Chen being disturbed, a guard stepped forward, grabbed the old liar’s arm and hurled him out.

*Deng!* *Deng!*

The old man seemed unable to bear the force and couldn’t help but retreat two steps. But these two steps had changed the way Jiang Chen and Big Yellow looked at the old liar.

“Little Chen, this old man isn’t simple.”

Big Yellow whispered to Jiang Chen. Both of them had a pair of sharp eyes. From the surface, the old man seemed merely an early Earth Immortal expert. Such cultivation base was basically the rock bottom in Eastern Profound Domain. Expert with this cultivation base would find it extremely difficult to survive, but this old man had already lived for so long. More importantly, the old man had yet to be beaten to death for deceiving so many people.

This wasn’t the most important thing. The key was that the guard was an intermediate Heaven Immortal. The gap between an early Earth Immortal and intermediate Heaven Immortal was inconceivable. Despite that, the old man only retreated two steps after being hurled by the guard.

Certainly, this wasn’t normal. The only explanation was that the old man was doing this on purpose. He had concealed his cultivation base—early Earth Immortal wasn’t his true cultivation base. Plus, even with Jiang Chen and Big Yellow’s eyesight, they weren’t able to discern the true cultivation base of the old man.

“Don’t pay attention to this old swindler, Young Master. He often lingers around here to deceive people, especially those that have come to Eastern Profound Domain for the first time like you. Today, a Trade Fair is going to take place soon. This old swindler wanted to join in, but he has always forgotten what place this is. This isn’t a place for filthy people.”

The guard spoke in a very decent tone. After all, Jiang Chen was a mighty Golden Immortal expert while Big Yellow was a half-step Immortal King expert. No matter how much pride he had, he was only a Heaven Immortal and wouldn’t dare show his snobbishness in front of them.

“A Trade Fair?”

Jiang Chen seemed dumbfounded. This explained why there were so many people here.

“Don’t listen to the nonsense of this guard. It’s your first time in Eastern Profound Domain, you must have lots of doubts about the situation in Futian Manor. The good thing is, this old man knows everything. There’s nothing in this domain that I don’t know. As long as you bring me in, you will know whatever you want to know.”

The old liar chided in like a typical shameless man. After being shoved by the guard, he didn’t even feel the slightest bit angry.

“Son of a b*tch! If you don’t get out of here now, don’t blame me for being rude.”

The guard was obviously angry, seemingly ready to attack the old man.

“Enough.”

Jiang Chen raised his hand, seeming somewhat irritated, then tossed 30 high grade Immortal Meta Stones to the guard.

“Let him in.” Jiang Chen said.

“Haha! This Young Master truly has a good eye, unlike these snobbish bastards. As long as old man is following you, your ten Immortal Meta Stones won’t be wasted,” the old man laughed with great excitement.

“Uh, does Young Master really want to bring this old swindler in?”

The guard seemed somewhat awkward, obviously feeling that letting the old man in was polluting the image of the manor.

“Do I need you to tell me what to do?” Jiang Chen darted the guard a glare.

“I don’t dare. This way, Young Master.” The guard showed an inviting gesture.

Jiang Chen and Big Yellow swaggered their way into the interior of the manor, with the old swindler following close behind, jogging and opening his mouth big, revealing a row of teeth. The image was dreadful. If it wasn’t because Jiang Chen had felt that this old man might not be ordinary, he would regret not bringing the old man in.

“Young Master does have a very good eyesight. You are the one with the best eyesight in Eastern Profound Domain. I wonder how I can address you,” the old liar asked.

“Jiang Chen,” said Jiang Chen flatly.

“Not bad. It’s a good name.” The old liar flattered.

“By the way, didn’t you say that you understand Eastern Profound Domain very well? Why don’t you introduce the domain to me?”

Jiang Chen looked over at the old liar. Since he had brought this bastard in, he naturally would have to know something valuable.

Hearing that Jiang Chen was asking him a question, the old liar was instantly alerted. He made a light cough and spoke solemnly: “If you want to talk about Eastern Profound Domain, there are 11 major forces you have to know. The Eastern Profound Domain is boundless and large in size. Naturally the experts here are innumerable. There are two great aristocratic families, three great empires, six great immortal sects. So basically 11 of the major powers have conquered the entire Eastern Profound Domain.”

“What kind of forces.”

Jiang Chen asked curiously. The number of major powers in Eastern Profound Domain was incomparable to One-Line-Sky. But this was enough to indicate the boundlessness of Eastern Profound Domain, one of the most important domains in the Immortal World.

“Let’s talk about the two great aristocratic families first. They are Zhuge and Nanbei Aristocratic Family. These two great families act as a counterweight to the other empires and immortal sects. Obviously, there are mighty Immortal Venerables guarding those major powers. As for the three great empires, they are namely Great Qian Empire, Great Cloud Empire, and Heavenly Jade Dynasty. These empires have never gotten along with one another. There were often fights among each other and even horrific battles have broken out before. Lastly, the six great immortal sects. They are Limitless Immortal Sect, Exquisite Paradise, Celestial Flower Valley, Divine Line Sect, Yellow Spring Sect and Yin Corpse Sect. There are good and evil in the six of them, having nothing in common with each other.”

Just as the old liar had claimed about knowing everything, he introduced all 11 major powers to Jiang Chen in detail. But as a cultivator of Eastern Profound Domain, it was extremely normal for one to have knowledge about these major forces. He was afraid that anyone in the street would know about this. If they didn’t know about the 11 major forces, how could they continue living around with the others in this domain?

“Great Qian Empire, Nanbei Aristocratic Family.”

A ray of light glittered in Jiang Chen’s eyes. Of the 11 major forces, the ones that aroused his interest the most were Great Qian Empire and Nanbei Aristocratic Family. Back when Yang Bufan left, he told Jiang Chen to find him in Great Qian Empire if Jiang Chen ever arrived in Eastern Profound Domain. Which was why Jiang Chen’s memory of the Great Qian Empire was still fresh.

As for Nanbei Aristocratic Family, though this was a rare surname, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but relate it to Nanbei Chao. Although Jiang Chen had killed two of Nanbei Chao’s clones, he was almost sure that the true Nanbei Chao was in this world. So there was still a possibility that the real Nanbei Chao was related to this Nanbei Aristocratic Family of Eastern Profound Domain.

“Little Chen, do you think that Nanbei Chao will be in this Nanbei Aristocratic Family? If he’s there, I’m afraid we are going to meet him again soon.”

Big Yellow whispered through divine sense, knowing that Nanbei Chao was Jiang Chen’s mortal enemy ever since they were in Saint Origin World.

“This must be fate. I’m looking forward in meeting him again.”

Jiang Chen smiled. He and Nanbei Chao were fated mortal enemies to one another that neither of them could avoid. Jiang Chen knew that the true battle with Nanbei Chao was going to break out in no time. It was always better to fight the enemy himself than its clones.
