As the carriage made its way to the stage. Andy, who was sitting inside the carriage, has his gaze fixed on the window. His ears could hear the commotion, and his eyes were met with the sight of a sea of people.

“What are you thinking?” Demon Lord’s voice echoed in his head.

“Nothing. I was just thinking about my days on Earth. If I hadn’t been transmigrated to this world, I would have been just like them. A normal man, just another face in the crowd, who would be forgotten in the annals of time,” Andy mumbled, his gaze fixed on the scene outside the window.

“That would have been true. But now that you’re here, you can leave your own legacy, and you have the power to do so,” Demon Lord spoke once more.

Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt, and he heard the driver’s voice.

“We’ve arrived, Young Master,”

“Hmmm, thank you,” Andy said as he rose to leave the carriage.

As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by a long line of people who had gathered on the stage to greet him. He also had the feeling that many people were peering at him. But then he noticed an intent gaze from the crowd, and when he turned his head, he was taken aback for a moment, but then a smirk formed on his face, and a thought crossed his mind.

“So he was Fang Yan,”

He shook his head slightly and directed his gaze to the people in front of him. But then he saw a man he didn’t want to see for the rest of his life.

After Lu An’s memories merged with him, he was even affected by Lu An’s emotions. And when he found out that the Lu family had received compensation from the Phoenix Pavilion in the name of his death, he was even more disgusted with them, especially the man in front of him, who was Lu An’s father.

Despite his disgust, he smiled as he approached the people in front of him. Even though he didn’t know anyone, he knew that everyone on the stage was a prominent figure on this continent.

Although he was unaware of the rumors swirling around him, he knew it would be something favorable, given how much respect these people had for him.

As he reached the stage, a middle-aged man walked up, clasped his hands, and introduced himself.

“Welcome, Young Master An. I am Feng Hao, the manager of the Black Dragon Continent’s Phoenix Pavilion.”

Andy was surprised that such a prominent figure as that manager introduced himself in such a humble manner. But he maintained his composure as he clasped his hands and said,

“It’s my pleasure to be here,”

While introducing himself, he could feel many gazes on him. As everyone tried to figure out whether the rumors about him were true or not.

“I heard that you particularly visited this city to attend the gathering of the sects’?” The middle-aged man asked again.

Andy gave a slight nod and said, “I’m not sure what rumors have been spread about me, but I’d be honest with you. I am not from this world.”

He paused to observe the expressions of those around him. And, as expected, people’s expressions changed greatly.

But the middle-aged man in front of him kept his smile on as he asked.

“What exactly do you mean by that?”

“I mean what I said. My master sent me here to experience the world,” Andy said, as a rainbow-colored fruit appeared on his hand.

When they noticed the fruit in his hand, everyone’s face went into great shock.

When Andy saw their expressions, he nodded and said, “As you may have guessed. This is the rainbow fruit, which can increase one’s life span by a hundred years. This is my gift to you in appreciation of your generosity.”

After he finished speaking, he extended his hand to give the fruit to the middle-aged man in front of him.

But the middle-aged man didn’t take the fruit; instead, his gaze shifted from the fruit to Andy, as he asked,

“I am sorry, but your master?”

“Ah, I’m sorry. I forgot to tell you, but he’s from up there, and so am I,” Andy said, pointing to the sky.

Technically, he said nothing wrong since he wasn’t from this world, and his master, the Demon Lord, is also from the Upper world.

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically when they saw Andy. They understood what he meant. He came from a higher world. It was every cultivator’s dream to ascend to that world.

Now they understood the reason why he could take out the rare rainbow fruit. After they understood, their gazes were more respectful towards Andy.

Andy nodded internally when he saw those expressions. He wanted this effect, which is why he took out the fruit.

He wanted everyone to acknowledge his identity as well as warn them by revealing his identity as a man from a higher world. This would encircle him in a protective shell until he was strong enough to protect himself.

The cultivation world is ruthless, and even the smallest mistake can cause the annihilation of an entire family. No one would mess with him now that they knew he was from the higher world.

The manager was astonished for a moment, but he kept a smile on his face as he took the fruit from Andy’s hands.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything happened in front of the crowd, and when they found out Andy was from the higher world, they all turned to look at him with reverence.

Fang Yan’s gaze had been fixed on the man in front of him the entire time, and he had heard everything that man had said, but he had no idea where his uneasiness had come from. He’d never seen that man before.

After a while, he shook his head and took a deep breath, recalling the words of the Supreme Saint when he inherited the legacy. “You’ve chosen the Emperor’s path. You will stand atop every cultivator in this world. No one in the world can compare to you.”

Suddenly, a surge of confidence welled up inside him, and a menacing expression appeared on his face as he gazed at a masked man on the stage. A smirk appeared on his face as he muttered,

“Di An, huh?”
