Chapter 161: Old Friend, Jia Xingtian's Worries!

"Swoosh!"

In the distance, a yellow light orb that was rushing over suddenly stopped when it reached a hundred feet in front of Chen Feng and Hai Bodong. The yellow light orb trembled slightly, its light slowly receded, and finally revealed an old man in a simple hemp robe.

As soon as the old man in the hemp robe approached, his gaze quickly swept over Chen Feng and the others.

"Is this… Hai Bodong? I didn't expect this old fellow to still be alive!"

After recognizing Hai Bodong's face and the unique icy aura he sensed, the old man in the hemp robe was surprised.

Next, when his gaze fell on Chen Feng, his heart thumped, shocked to the extreme.

"How could such a young lad have reached the Dou Wang level! This is impossible!" The old man in the hemp robe was astonished, disbelief filled his eyes.

On Hai Bodong's side, he quickly identified the newcomer. This old man in the hemp robe was Jia Xingtian, the guardian behind the Jia Ma royal family.

At this moment, Hai Bodong had a hunch that Jia Xingtian was definitely surprised by Chen Feng's cultivation talent. After all, in the Jia Ma Empire, and even in the surrounding empires, no one had ever heard of someone breaking through to the Dou Wang level at around sixteen years old.

"Jia old man, it's been decades, don't tell me you don't recognize me?"

With a smile on his face, Hai Bodong took the initiative to speak to Jia Xingtian.

Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian slowly withdrew his thoughts, moved his gaze away from Chen Feng, and looked at Hai Bodong again.

"Ice old man, if there were a few more scars on your face, I really wouldn't recognize you!" Jia Xingtian responded with a laugh.

"You old fellow, do you have to bring up my scars as soon as we meet!" Hearing Jia Xingtian's tease, Hai Bodong retorted unhappily.

At this moment, both old men in the conversation had a nostalgic look in their eyes.

Suddenly, Jia Xingtian changed the subject, a strange light in his eyes, and asked, "Ice old man, who is this young man beside you?"

"Jia old man, it's surprising that you've been in the imperial capital for so long and you don't even recognize the young master of the Yunlan Sect!"

Hai Bodong knew he couldn't hide it from Jia Xingtian, so he didn't try to, and directly revealed Chen Feng's identity.

"He is the newly appointed young master of the Yunlan Sect?"

Hearing Hai Bodong's words, Jia Xingtian looked very surprised.

At this time, Jia Xingtian's thoughts were very complicated. Some time ago, the princess of the empire, Yao Ye, told him that the young master of the Yunlan Sect, Miteer Chen Feng, had an excellent cultivation talent and had broken through to the Da Dou Shi realm before he was sixteen.

The most critical point was that the young master of the Yunlan Sect was originally from the Miteer family, but later married the granddaughter of Nalan Jie, which made the Miteer family and the Nalan family now in-laws, with a close relationship.

Yao Ye was worried that in the future, when Chen Feng took over the Yunlan Sect and then united the Miteer family and the Nalan family, it would pose a great threat to the royal family.

At first, when Jia Xingtian heard this news, he frowned, but he didn't feel any urgency. After all, in his eyes, even if Chen Feng was going to rise, it would take at least seven or eight years, and there were many opportunities to turn the situation around during this time.

But now, Jia Xingtian found that Chen Feng's cultivation was not just a Da Dou Shi as Yao Ye said, but he had quietly become a Dou Wang powerhouse. This cultivation speed was monstrous. Moreover, the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, who had disappeared from the Miteer family for decades, returned to the imperial capital at this time. These two things together immediately made Jia Xingtian feel a great sense of crisis.

Back then, during the last power transition of the Jia Ma Empire, the Jia Ma royal family at that time was also a giant family within the empire. Therefore, the royal family has always been quite vigilant about these big families in the country, and absolutely cannot tolerate their strength surpassing the royal family.

"This child poses a great threat and must not be left!"

At this moment, Jia Xingtian had already thought of killing Chen Feng in the cradle, but he did not show his murderous intent, and calmly said, "Ice old man, your Miteer family has produced such a genius, it's really something to be happy about! I'm afraid it won't be long before we old fellows will have to step down!"

Jia Xingtian's hesitation made Hai Bodong somewhat suspicious. Having lived for so many years, his mind was very meticulous. He understood that someone like Chen Feng was already a threat to the royal family, and Jia Xingtian might have some ulterior motives.

"It seems that during this period, I have to keep an eye on this kid Chen Feng!"

Hai Bodong sighed secretly in his heart, then also patted Chen Feng's shoulder without changing his expression, and laughed, "Chen Feng lad, it seems that Jia old man also thinks highly of you!"

"Elder, Jia old man, my cultivation is far inferior to the two of you!"

With a smile on his face, Chen Feng replied calmly, without any tension or restraint in the face of the pressure from the two Dou Huang powerhouses.

Qing Lin, who had been held by Chen Feng all the time, was a little nervous because of this situation and remained silent.

Chen Feng's performance made Jia Xingtian couldn't help but show a look of appreciation. However, the better Chen Feng performed, the greater the murderous intent hidden in Jia Xingtian's heart.

"Ice old man, it's been decades since we last met. I wonder how much your cultivation has improved compared to back then. Why don't we have a competition?"

Jia Xingtian suddenly said to Hai Bodong with a smile. His purpose was very clear, that is, he wanted to test out Hai Bodong's real strength now.

"Is this old fellow trying to give me a blow?"

Hearing Jia Xingtian say he wanted to compete, Hai Bodong's face suddenly became unnatural.

Back then, when he was not sealed, he was slightly inferior to Jia Xingtian. Moreover, in the past few decades, his cultivation has not improved at all, but has regressed a lot. How could he be Jia Xingtian's opponent? If he agreed to compete, he would probably lose after a few moves.

"Jia old man, I know you old friends are itching to see each other, but the elder has had some changes in his body over the past few decades, which has caused his cultivation to regress instead of advancing… I'm sure Jia old man can see some of it!"

Just as Hai Bodong was hesitating, Chen Feng explained on his behalf. He did not hide from Jia Xingtian the fact that Hai Bodong's cultivation had regressed. In fact, he wanted to make a test. If Jia Xingtian really had any ulterior motives, knowing that Hai Bodong's strength had regressed, he would be less cautious when doing things.

"Sigh…"

Seeing that Chen Feng had already spoken out about his situation, Hai Bodong could only sigh helplessly.
