Chapter 762 - Immortal
"Fairy Empress! We have an emergency!" A woman came running into the Fairy Empress' room shortly after the gaping hole appeared above the Fairy Paradise.
"Calm down, I am aware." Fairy Empress said.
However, despite her calm voice, her face had a huge frown on it, and she was anything but calm.
'What is this feeling? I feel an overwhelming presence coming from the hole… I have never experienced anything like this before…'
The Fairy Empress could feel her entire body shivering from fear when she felt this divine presence.
"All of you stay alert. I am going to see what's happening."
"That's too dangerous! You must stay here, Fairy Empress!"
"Then do you want to go out there and investigate the hole for me?" The Fairy Empress narrowed her eyes at the woman, who immediately closed her mouth and lowered her head, her answer clear.
"I thought so." Fairy Empress coldly sneered before flying out the window to approach the hole.
However, just as she got close to the sky, she noticed a figure descending from this hole, and she immediately recognized that the divine presence she had been feeling this entire time was caused by this figure.
'An Immortal! He's a true Immortal!' Fairy Empress cried inwardly as she realized his identity.
Even though it was a guess, she had no doubt that this old man was an Immortal that had reached an unfathomable level in the cultivation path.
The Fairy Empress wanted to go up to the Immortal and greet him, but she was also afraid to disturb him at the same time.
Therefore, she could only hover in the sky and silently ponder whether she should approach him or not.
While the Fairy Empress pondered, she suddenly felt a presence behind her, causing her to turn around.
"Fuck!"
The Fairy Empress cursed out loud when she was startled by the old man hovering behind her.
'When did he appear behind me?! I didn't see him move at all, nor did I feel his presence until he allowed me to sense it!' The Fairy Empress cried inwardly, as she has never been snuck up on like this before.
Despite her shock, the Fairy Empress straightened her back before bowing to the old man.
"This Junior greets Senior."
The old man looked at her with a nonchalant gaze as he spoke, "I am looking for a certain individual."
"Do you have any descriptions of this person?" Fairy Empress asked.
"I do not."
Although she was a little baffled, the Fairy Empress didn't change her expression and continued to ask, "Then do you know how we can find this person?"
"I do not." The old man repeated.
This left the Fairy Empress speechless. How are they supposed to find someone without any information?
'Is he messing with me?' The Fairy Empress wondered inwardly.
"No, I am not messing with you." The old man suddenly said.
"Eh?"
The Fairy Empress was dumbfounded when he heard the old man's response, and she thought for a second that she had accidentally spoken out loud just now.
"P-Please forgive this Junior!" She quickly apologized to him while thinking to herself, 'Did he just read my mind…?'
And to her absolute surprise, the old man responded once again, "No, I did not read your mind."
'He's definitely reading my mind!'
Once she realized this, Fairy Empress immediately cleared her mind and tried her best to not think about anything.
"Anyways, while I do not have any description about this person, he should be very easy to find." The old man said.
Fairy Empress nodded and paid close attention to his next words.
"This person… He's very talented."
'He's definitely messing with me!' The Fairy Empress cried inwardly.
However, the old man said, "I know you think I am messing with you, but I am not. This person, he's not your average genius. He's a once-in-a-lifetime genius."
"Also, he was only in this place for a brief moment not long ago. His surname should also be 'Tian'."
"Not long ago?" Fairy Empress raised her eyebrows, and a certain individual appeared in her head.
'D-Don't tell me he's looking for the missing Dragon Emperor…?'
Fairy Empress swallowed nervously when she recalled that the old man could read her mind.
But to her surprise, he didn't say anything this time.
"Do you have someone in mind?" The old man noticed her expression and asked her.
"Are you talking about the Dragon Emperor, by any chance? He appeared out of the blue a while ago and vanished just as suddenly. We're also looking for him."
"Dragon Emperor? Tell me more about him." The old man quickly said.
The Fairy Empress nodded and began telling the old man about the Dragon Emperor without giving him all of the details, such as detaining him like a prisoner, as she was afraid that might offend this old man.
"He called himself 'Yuan', and he told us that he'd come to the Fifth Heaven by accident through a teleport formation. The Royal Dragon Family took him to their household, but he disappeared shortly after."
"The Royal Dragon Family…" The old man suddenly turned to look in a certain direction.
The next moment, the Fairy Empress watched as the old man disappeared in front of her like a ghost. She looked around, and once she was certain that he was gone, she released a relieved sigh before flying back to her palace.
As for the old man, he went to give the Royal Dragon Family a visit.
"I can sense his presence here as well… Did he really reincarnate into a Dragon Emperor? No… That shouldn't be possible…" The old man mumbled to himself in a puzzled manner.
The old man stopped pondering to himself and went inside the Dragon Royal Family's household without knocking on the door.
A moment later, he appeared inside the Dragon King's room.
Once inside the room, the old man walked to the bed, where the Dragon King was resting.
The old man stared at the Dragon King's sleeping face for a moment before releasing a hint of killing intent.
"Motherfucker!" The Dragon King jumped out of his bed the instant he sensed the killing intent that nearly gave him a heart attack.
Of course, a hint of killing intent coming from an Immortal would be more than enough to startle even a Spirit Emperor to death.
