944: Chapter 257_2 944: Chapter 257_2 Those who descended from the Flying Boat nodded and exclaimed, “Yes, that’s Cao Zhen, he’s the State Preceptor of our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty!”
“How is that possible!
Cao Zhen has been in our village for so many years, how could he be the State Preceptor?”
“Exactly, when Cao Zhen first arrived, he couldn’t even fish, and it was I who taught him how to make nets and catch fish with my own hands.”
“I even thought about setting up that young girl from the Cao Lan family with Cao Zhen.
I saw a spark between the two, and now you tell me Cao Zhen is the State Preceptor?
Although Cao Zhen’s name is the same as the State Preceptor’s, we can’t just say that Cao Zhen is the State Preceptor!”
“Right, Cao Zhen looks no different from us, how could he be an Immortal, let alone the State Preceptor!”
No one could believe that someone who had lived among them for so long, a villager from the same village, was the current State Preceptor, the number one master in the entire Eastern Wasteland!
However, while people were buzzing with discussion, the massive Flying Boat above their heads had disappeared, and from within the Flying Boat, a figure flew out.
The people also instantly recognized the appearance of this figure.
“It’s Cao Zhen, it really is Cao Zhen!”
“Look, Cao Zhen is flying in the sky, and there’s golden light emanating from his body!”
“Is that behind him, the legendary Golden Core?”
“Cao Zhen really is an Immortal, he really is our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s State Preceptor?
We’ve been living with the State Preceptor in the same village for many years?”
Cao Zhen heard the villagers’ exclamations of shock.
He knew their reactions were normal, but now was really not the time for surprise.
Again Cao Zhen called out to the people below, “Folks, a tsunami is coming soon, everyone go home and pack up your belongings, then head to a distant place to take refuge.”
After speaking, Cao Zhen rose into the air, while also using his mana, to shout towards the distance, “I am the State Preceptor Cao Zhen of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
A tsunami is imminent, and all who are in the coastal villages must leave and seek refuge inland.”
His voice, carried by the air, traveled far and wide.
There weren’t only Cao Village on this coast; there were several other villages, and he couldn’t possibly help only this one village.
However, the others he had saved along the way, he simply couldn’t take them all back to their villages.
After all, these people were from different villages, and if he were to visit each one, it would delay some time, time which he didn’t currently have to spare.
He could only shout to let people in the surrounding villages know to evacuate.
Even, in order to make the people believe and trust him, he openly acknowledged his identity as the State Preceptor.
This was the first time that he, the State Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, had revealed himself to the world in fifty years.
As his words fell, in the distance, by the coastline, people from various villages heard the authoritative voice from afar, and were momentarily stunned.
“The State Preceptor?
This person says he’s the State Preceptor?”
“Is it really the State Preceptor?”
“The State Preceptor said a tsunami is coming.”
“Quick, move the useful things, the sky is so gloomy, there might really be a tsunami coming.”
“But our children are still out at sea.”
“Yes, my man is also out fishing.
If there’s a tsunami, he…”
While the people were worried, that infinitely authoritative voice once again traveled from a distance.
“All the fishermen at sea have been rescued by me, they are now at Cao Village, do not worry, leave quickly.”
“Rescued?
Everyone?”
“It’s a transmission from the State Preceptor; he’s talking.
What’s there to doubt?”
“Exactly, if the State Preceptor says he has saved everyone, then it means he has saved everyone!”
“State Preceptor, we thank you!”
“Let’s go, don’t delay, hurry up.
After the tsunami is over, when we come back, we must build a statue for the State Preceptor, and erect a temple for him!”
“Indeed, we must build a statue for the State Preceptor!”
To ensure that everyone in the nearby villages and those active in the vicinity heard him, Cao Zhen had used all his mana.
After all, it was impossible for everyone to be in the village; there were definitely those out and about, and he needed to let everyone know of the impending tsunami.
The sound spread far and wide, reaching not just the nearby villages but also, in a distant Immortal Sect, several Cultivators faintly heard the transmitted voice.
Being cultivators with cultivated bases, they could hear sounds from much farther distances than ordinary people.
“The State Preceptor?
I didn’t mishear just now; did the State Preceptor appear?”
“Is it really the State Preceptor?
How could the State Preceptor appear here?”
“Indeed, for the past fifty years, there has been no news of the State Preceptor.
Not even when relics were discovered did the State Preceptor visit.
Even those who have been to the Hundred Peaks Sect said they did not see the State Preceptor, and some even doubted whether he had advanced into the Wind Fire Tribulation and then crossed it to become an Earth Immortal and went into slumber.
And now, the State Preceptor has appeared on our side.”
“This should be the State Preceptor, right?”
“It must be the State Preceptor.
Nowadays, the Hundred Peaks Sect is thriving; who would dare to impersonate the State Preceptor?”
“But why would the State Preceptor appear here?
And now that it’s been fifty years, our Eastern Wasteland is about to connect with the Central Five Provinces, shouldn’t the State Preceptor be presiding over the Hundred Peaks Sect at such a time?”
“We can only speculate about the State Preceptor, and the appearance of the State Preceptor must be related to our Eastern Wasteland connecting with the Central Five Provinces.
