Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 930 - 248: The Name of Fan Wu Assassinating the Evil God Spreads Throughout the Shangwu Dynasty!

"I have indeed heard a thing or two about the Bai Family of the Imperial City," said the figure who was clearly the Earth Deity of the Earth Temple. He scrutinized Bai Sheng, his gaze lingering on him before he spoke, "Before I became the Earth Deity of Lingchen County, when I was still an annoyance, I once visited the Imperial City and met the then Family Head of the Bai Family."

"That Family Head of the Bai Family... could also be considered a Cultivator whose cultivation reached the heavens. Centuries have passed since then. By various chances and coincidences, I became the Earth Deity of Lingchen County. Meanwhile, the Family Head of the Bai Family whom I visited reportedly was jointly conferred celestial status by the Heavenly Court and the Imperial Court, ascending to immortality," the Earth Deity of Lingchen County said, "The Bai Family must already have, what, five celestial ancestors?"

After hearing this explanation, Yan Dalong seemed to recall something, immediately assuming an expression of sudden realization. He finally remembered what kind of family this Bai Family of the Imperial City was, after all, both he and his brother had grown up in the Imperial City. Just moments ago, he was too drunk to remember, but now, with a reminder, memories flooded back into his mind.

"The Bai Family of the Imperial City, an Immortal Family?" Yan Dalong’s eyes, fierce as tigers and dragons, narrowed slightly as he looked at Bai Sheng with a hint of hostility. He blurted out accusingly, "Hey! You little sprout from the Bai Family who came from the Imperial City, you couldn’t possibly be here to arrest us brothers and curry favor with that damn State Preceptor, could you?"

Hearing this, Bai Sheng quickly shook his head. He had no intention of clashing with the two brothers, and explained, "I came here simply to wander and admire the scenery, not to confront that senior. It just so happened that I encountered what happened tonight. I realized that the entity battling the Evil God was not a deity, so I was curious and came to have a look."

He then turned his curious gaze towards a little old man inside the Earth Temple. Gathering from the words spoken earlier, this person should be the local Earth Deity, right? Bai Sheng immediately clasped his hands together and bowed, saying, "Bai Sheng of the younger generation of the Imperial City Bai Family, greets this esteemed Earth Deity, and also greets all Fellow Taoists present."

"Not knowing which Fellow Taoist or Earth Deity could inform this junior, who exactly was the venerable cultivator who managed to defeat such a terrifying Evil God?" Bai Sheng kept his tone very low and his manner very humble, showing none of the arrogance befitting a scion of a Great Clan, but rather, he was quite modest.

This was actually also a kind of cultivation, as the majority of those from well-established Great Clans... often have exceptionally high self-restraint, as they are trained systematically in proper etiquette. Naturally, these Great Clans also host some, notably arrogant individuals.

However, it was clear... that Bai Sheng of the Imperial City Bai Family, the rightful youngest son, was not such a type. Even if he was pretending to be this humble, then he was indeed pretending very well. ’Rightful youngest son’ meant the youngest member of the primary lineage, equivalent to the smallest son of the Bai Family Head.

"What senior? Our Daoist Priest Fan... is he that old?" At that moment, Yun Jiuqing’s voice rang out. She answered Bai Sheng’s question, "The one who killed such an Evil God was naturally Daoist Priest Fan!"

It was apparent that Yun Jiuqing was also slightly tipsy, her body slightly exuding the scent of alcohol, likely from the hundreds-year-old wine stored by the Earth Deity. Consequently, her speech was somewhat slurred.

"Daoist... Fan Wu?" Bai Sheng murmured these four words to himself, finding this name extremely unfamiliar. Was there such a Taoist Priest in the Shangwu Dynasty? There seemed to be no mention of him in his memory.

And moreover... the girl who just refuted his phrase ’senior’ seemed to imply that Daoist Fan Wu might be relatively young?

Actually, Bai Sheng hadn’t been in Lingchen County for more than a couple of days, barely even two days in total, and during this time, he had been wandering around, not interacting much with people.

Thus... he hadn’t heard any rumors about Fan Wu, so he didn’t know who Fan Wu was, nor did he know what Fan Wu had done.

But he was quite familiar with the brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu, after all, they were significant figures in the Imperial City.

At that moment, he also noticed that the girl had looked towards someone inside the Earth Temple.

Seeing Yun Jiuqing’s slight gesture, Bai Sheng immediately paused, stupefied.

Could that be... the Daoist Priest Fan she was talking about?

Bai Sheng’s eyes then fell on Fan Wu.

He... was shocked by Fan Wu’s youthfulness!

Though Fan Wu was extremely tall and robust, at least much taller than Bai Sheng, the problem was... that face was excessively young. Could he be thirty years old? Definitely not thirty, right? Maybe twenty-five? Possibly not even twenty-five? Perhaps between twenty-two and twenty-four? Meaning... under twenty-five years old, yet possessing the power to slay an Evil God?
