The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 57 - Zhang Tianjiao, why did you leave

*”This genius seems different from the ones who came before, much more impressive!”*

*”I wonder which genius this is!”*

The city dwellers were curious.

*These people or cultivators were of too low a cultivation level.*

*They didn’t realize that Li Wan Hua and Chen Yuan were Saint Heirs.*

But among them, some recognized Li Wan Hua and Chen Yuan.

They fell silent at once, reverent of that palanquin.

At the center of Tianyun City, before the gates of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The arrival of Li Wan Hua and the others prompted the guards at the City Lord’s Mansion to immediately open the grand gates.

“Genius, please enter!”

They were all amazed, astonished.

*This palanquin was overly ostentatious!*

*Other geniuses had arrived, but none with such grandeur!*

“Quick, quickly go and report to the City Lord, another genius has arrived!” a steward shouted.

“Yes!”

Deep within the City Lord’s Mansion, inside the grand hall.

Wang Chenghe, the City Lord of Tianyun City, sat at the head seat, sipping tea.

In the seat before him sat a cultivator in a Daoist robe.

This person was Ming Sect’s Saint Child, Zhang Shengyuan!

His cultivation level was in the Four Extremes Secret Realm, having emerged from the Human List just a day ago.

“Zhang Tianjiao, may I ask what your ranking was on the Human List?” Wang Chenghe asked calmly.

Zhang Shengyuan put down his teacup.

“I was ranked ninety-fourth on the Human List.

If it weren’t for my breakthrough in cultivation, and being on the border of the Human List,

I looked around for half a day and didn’t find a single genius.

No one was there to fight, so I left.

I think it might be difficult to become first on the Human List, but aiming for the top ten on the Heavenly List is easy as pie,” he said arrogantly.

Then he sighed.

“It’s just a pity that my location was wrong.

My luck was bad, otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t be only ranked ninety-fourth.”

Wang Chenghe nodded.

“Sometimes bad luck really drags one down.” He expressed his deep agreement.

“Yes, by the way, Lord,

I heard you’re hosting a banquet tonight for all the geniuses invited by Zhujian Mountain Villa?” Zhang Shengyuan asked.

“Indeed, Zhujian Mountain Villa has invited the geniuses to view swords.

As a former guest of Zhujian Mountain Villa, I naturally must host them well,” Wang Chenghe replied with a smile.

Zhang Shengyuan’s eyes flickered.

“I also heard you’re looking for a son-in-law for your daughter at tonight’s banquet?”

This was the most intriguing topic for him.

“Does Zhang Tianjiao have any thoughts?” Wang Chenghe asked, implying deeply.

Zhang Shengyuan scratched his head, a bit embarrassed.

“Yes, I do have that thought!”

He knew very well what kind of presence Wang Chenghe’s daughter was.

He naturally wanted to win over her to become his woman.

“Zhang Tianjiao is interesting, and I hold you in high regard.

I believe you have the strength to vie for the top position!

So tonight, will Zhang Tianjiao give it a try?” Wang Chenghe seemed to have high expectations for Zhang Shengyuan.

Zhang Shengyuan immediately grew excited.

“Alright, Lord Wang, I will definitely give my utmost effort to stand out at the banquet,” he immediately stood up and said earnestly.

Wang Chenghe laughed heartily, very pleased.

“Good, good, Zhang Tianjiao, it’s good that you have this determination.

Tonight, I will watch with great anticipation!”

“Understood.” Zhang Shengyuan was thrilled.

He sat down, raising his teacup.

“Lord Wang, please!”

“Please.” Wang Chenghe raised his teacup as well.

The two drank in one gulp, finishing the tea in their cups.

At this moment, a guard quickly ran in from outside.

“Reporting to the City Lord, a genius has arrived!”

The guard knelt on one knee, panting.

*”Geniuses come and go; there’s no need to be so agitated.”* Wang Chenghe remarked with composure.

The guard lowered his head.

“City Lord, this genius who has arrived is very grand.

Do you want to greet him personally?” he asked somewhat timidly.

*Grand?*

*Personally greet?*

“Is there someone so grand to warrant Lord Wang to greet them?

Could it be the genius ranked first on the Human List, the Little Sword God, Ao Tian?

Or the one with a genius as a servant?” Zhang Shengyuan asked, displeased.

Having broken through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, his eyes only saw two people!

One was Little Sword God Ao Tian.

The other was someone unseen, with the Immortal Physique Li Wan Hua and Zhan Wuchang as a servant.

Their rankings had always surpassed his.

Li Wan Hua, whom he had fought several times and lost, was surely not simple, being the master of both.

Not to mention that he had defeated the Heavenly Eye Divine General Seal, making Li Wan Hua bow, shocking countless geniuses!

In his eyes, this person absolutely had the strength to compete for the first place!

“Zhang Tianjiao, who has a genius as a servant?

Why haven’t I heard of this?” Wang Chenghe asked, puzzled.

Zhang Shengyuan recounted some events from Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire City.

“Such an astonishingly talented genius exists?

That’s no small matter!” Wang Chenghe said.

“Yes, but I think he hasn’t come out of the Human List yet.

The one who arrived is probably not him,” Zhang Shengyuan said.

Just as he finished speaking, a palanquin appeared outside.

Zhang Shengyuan noticed it out of the corner of his eye and immediately turned his head.

A double-decker palanquin came into view, and he quickly rubbed his eyes!

Not only did he see the palanquin, but also Li Wan Hua.

“He’s here!”

Zhang Shengyuan immediately stood up.

“Lord Wang, I have urgent matters at home, so I’ll take my leave first.”

He was about to leave through the front door when he realized it wasn’t right.

He turned and ran toward the back gate of the City Lord’s Mansion at great speed.

“Zhang Tianjiao, why are you leaving!

Aren’t you attending tonight’s banquet?” Wang Chenghe called out.

Zhang Shengyuan, hurrying away, didn’t look back.

“Li Wan Hua has arrived, and there are even more geniuses carrying the palanquin.

How can I compete?

What do I have to fight against him?” Zhang Shengyuan thought upon hearing Wang Chenghe’s voice.

*At this moment, he no longer thought of any woman.*

“I’m not up to it, and I know my own limits!”

Wang Chenghe frowned.

*”Leaving so quickly, did he witness something terrifying?”* he wondered.

Could it be…

He couldn’t help but recall the person Zhang Shengyuan had mentioned earlier.

Not Little Sword God Ao Tian, but the one whose presence alone made geniuses become servants!

“Is it him?”

Wang Chenghe looked toward the approaching palanquin outside, quickly stepping forward.

“I must go and see if it’s him.

If it is, then I have a prime candidate for a son-in-law.”

As he reached outside and gazed at the stationary double-decker palanquin.

Wang Chenghe stood firm.

“I wonder if the genius hails from Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire City and has entered the Human List?” he asked courteously.

Li Wan Hua descended.

“Yes, my master just led us out of the Human List not long ago.”

Wang Chenghe’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.

“Have you also entered the Human List?”

Li Wan Hua’s mouth twitched slightly.

“Yes, not just me; under my master, only one person hasn’t entered the Human List,” he replied.

Wang Chenghe’s eyes grew even brighter.

*”Indeed, it’s likely them,”* he thought to himself.
