"An existence of the Dao Realm..."
The moment Uncle Fu appeared, all the cultivators and beings in Purple Return City who were watching this scene felt a wave of terror.
No one had expected that a Dao Realm existence would actually be accompanying Chu Xiao.
No wonder he had been so brazen and unafraid of reprisal.
"Today's matter was my young master's fault. This old man apologizes to you all, and I will compensate everyone for all losses he caused."
Uncle Fu did not allow Chu Xiao to speak further. His gaze, calm and unrippled, swept over the other cultivators and beings present.
Given his status, no one dared to voice a single word of dissent after he spoke these words.
Chu Xiao snorted coldly, somewhat displeased with Uncle Fu's actions. However, he didn't say anything more.
Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, Fairy Caiyun, and the others also hadn't expected that such an unfathomable Dao Realm existence would be following Chu Xiao.
Their expressions turned somewhat unpleasant, and they felt stifled and aggrieved.
Although this hunched old man said he would apologize and compensate their losses, his casual, dismissive manner clearly indicated he did not take this matter seriously.
Nevertheless, they dared not say much more. After all, this was a Dao Realm existence, standing at the pinnacle of the Prime-Origin Civilization.
Who would dare to offend lightly?
Even with their status, backgrounds, talent, and strength, they could not guarantee they would become a Dao Realm existence in the future.
The powers behind them were also unlikely to dispatch a Dao Realm existence, specifically for their protection.
After saying this, Uncle Fu looked at Gu Changge, his brow slightly furrowing.
He looked down upon all the cultivators and beings of Purple Return City. Only the Gu Changge before him was inscrutable; Uncle Fu could not figure him out or guess his identity.
He had witnessed the entire conflict between Gu Changge and Chu Xiao just now.
Gu Changge's actions were indeed somewhat overbearing, but Chu Xiao was also clearly in the wrong.
"Just a courtesan singer. With your statuses, there's no need for such a dispute."
"However, my young master was indeed at fault in today's incident. This old man apologizes to you, young master."
Adhering to the principle that avoiding trouble is better than courting it, Uncle Fu still took the initiative to apologize.
For someone of his status and power to say this to a junior showed great sincerity.
He didn't believe Gu Changge would continue to press the issue.
"Oh? And it's over with just an apology?"
Hearing this, Gu Changge smiled faintly, appearing completely unsurprised by Uncle Fu's appearance behind Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao's face instantly turned cold again upon hearing this. "You..."
Uncle Fu's expression also changed slightly. As a Dao Realm existence, he had personally stooped to apologize to Gu Changge, yet Gu Changge was still not satisfied.
"What must be done for you to be satisfied, young master?" he asked, suppressing the displeasure in his heart, his face still calm.
"I am not a narrow-minded person either. How about this: have your young master kneel and apologize to me, and perhaps I will let this matter go," Gu Changge said, seemingly with interest.
These words caused the expressions of Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, Fairy Caiyun, and the others to change again.
They hadn't expected Gu Changge's attitude to remain unchanged even in the face of a Dao Realm existence; he simply didn't regard him highly.
Uncle Fu's expression also changed abruptly, his gaze towards Gu Changge turning somewhat cold.
"Utterly intolerable bullying!"
Chu Xiao was almost enraged. In his view, Uncle Fu's humble apology was already unbelievable enough.
Yet Gu Changge was still not the least bit satisfied and even wanted him to kneel and apologize?
This was no longer simple contempt or humiliation; it was like wanting to crush his head underfoot.
"It seems you are determined not to let this matter rest, young master?" Uncle Fu's gaze grew colder. He could see it now.
Gu Changge completely ignored his sincerity and was determined to humiliate Chu Xiao. As the most beloved son of the current ruler of the Immortal Chu Dynasty.
Chu Xiao's status was incomparably noble.
If he were to kneel and apologize to someone here, where would the face of the Immortal Chu Dynasty be?
Gu Changge let out a light, indifferent chuckle and asked, "What? Do you still intend to force my hand?"
The moment his words fell, everyone felt the sky suddenly darken. The full-moon night seemed to lose all its light.
An extremely tall figure, shrouded in a black robe, descended from the high sky and appeared.
Its originally deep, sunken eye sockets seemed to have eerie flames dancing within them, emitting a chilling, fear-inducing aura.
"Young Master..."
This figure cast a cold glance at Chu Xiao and Uncle Fu, then respectfully stood behind Gu Changge.
In truth, the White Bone Ancestor King had arrived in the Prime-Origin Civilization several days prior.
However, to avoid drawing attention, Gu Changge had not kept him by his side.
But now, as he moved through the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain, he happened to need an identity, so he had the White Bone Ancestor King reveal himself.
"Another Dao Realm existence..."
Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, Fairy Caiyun, and the others were utterly shocked and stunned.
They even felt that the aura of this tall, black-robed figure was far more terrifying than that of Uncle Fu beside Chu Xiao.
Just its deep, silent gaze seemed capable of freezing the heavens and causing the universe to collapse.
All the cultivators and beings in the distance were also horrified.
Who could have imagined that two Dao Realm existences would appear one after another within Purple Return City?
Chu Xiao's expression also froze at this moment. He knew his special status was why Uncle Fu followed him, secretly protecting his safety.
But Gu Changge before him actually had such a terrifying Dao Realm existence accompanying him as well.
Compared to Uncle Fu's elder-like status, this burly black-robed figure treated Gu Changge with extreme respect, clearly as one would a master.
This was almost unbearable for Chu Xiao.
Uncle Fu's expression at this moment was also extremely ugly and grave.
This black-robed, burly figure brought him an extremely terrifying sense of pressure. He was definitely not its match.
It was no ordinary Dao Realm existence; perhaps it was even close to the Ancestral Dao Realm?
"Just what origin does this young man in white have..."
A sense of dread rose in Uncle Fu's heart, completely replacing his previous calm composure.
He had thought his appearance would resolve the matter, but who could have guessed Gu Changge's origin was far more terrifying than he imagined?
Could he be from one of those Forbidden and Mysterious Lands? How else to explain Gu Changge's identity and origin?
