Elder Jin was not from the Primary Hope Civilisation. He was an authoritative figure from the Rising Dawn Civilisation. He had been alive for countless epochs and still had a very long road ahead of him.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess had seen him when she was a young child. Moreover, her Master had been friends with Elder Jin for a long time.

 

In the past, Elder Jin suffered a Dao Injury, which caused his power to plunge.

 

That said, he was still an Ancestral Dao Realm expert who had gone through seven Decay Tribulations, and his power was inscrutable.

 

It could be said that he was a living fossil who had seen the rise and fall of countless Civilisations. Regardless of which Civilisation one was from, one would be respectful of him.

 

Moreover, Elder Jin had experienced the darkest time when the Black Disaster devastated the Boundless Expanse.

 

Therefore, the Primary Hope Saintess had no choice but to greet Elder Jin. It was just that she was surprised that Elder Jin was accompanying by Chu Gucheng.

 

At that moment, she shook her head and waved her hand. A veil appeared and covered her flawless face.

 

Then, she took a step forward as ripples spread from the void. The Mirror of Reincarnation vanished into thin air.

 

Her white clothes flapped in the air as she elegantly left the hall.

 

The main purpose of the Primary Hope Holy Church’s existence was to seal the source of the Black Disaster back then.

 

Although the Primary Hope Saintess’ Master went missing a long time ago, she still adhered to her Master’s words and was determined to destroy the remnants of the Black Disaster.

 

The source of the Black Disaster had been sealed, but its black haze had corroded different parts of the Boundless Expanse.

 

After getting notified by Elder Jin of this, the Primary Hope Saintess intended to head to the Strange Land where the source of the Black Disaster was sealed, to have a look. She was worried the seal might have loosened.

 

However, because of the matter regarding the Land of Celestial Suffering and the unfortunate future shown in the Mirror of Reincarnation, she had to focus on these events.

 

As such, she had not even left the Primary Hope Holy Church, let alone head to that place to have a look.

 

If the seal had loosened and the Black Disaster showed up again, no one would be able to go against it. It would be useless even if her Master reappeared.

 

When she thought of this, there was a hint of worry on her flawless face.

 

Many things were happening all at once. Other than the fact that there might be a problem with the place where the Black Disaster’s source was sealed, an unknown horrifying enemy was also about to show up in the Primary Hope Civilisation.

 

She had made a deduction for over 100 years using the Mirror of Reincarnation. It meant that she had stayed by the unknown enemy’s side for more than 100 years. Still, she was not certain about his temperament, nor was she aware of his true power.

 

[If Elder Jin hadn’t disrupted me, I would’ve made some progress. The enemy surnamed Gu is not without weakness!] The Primary Hope Saintess snapped back to reality. She wanted to know why Elder Jin intended to see her.

 

Presently, outside the Primary Hope Holy Church, Chu Gucheng stood shoulder to shoulder with a dispassionate old man in a golden robe. They were talking about something.

 

Beneath their feet were endlessly rolling clouds. Magnificent peaks that could captivate anyone were faintly seen.

 

“Elder Jin, since you’ve personally come over, I believe the Primary Hope Saintess will not refuse to see us this time.” Chu Gucheng was clad in a simple grey silk robe with his hands behind his back. He did not look like a king at all. Instead, he was like the Patriarch of an ordinary Family.

 

He looked at the magnificence of the Primary Hope Holy Church and shook his head with a smile. It was apparent that he was respectful of Elder Jin.

 

He had visited this place three times to see the Primary Hope Saintess, but he was always turned down.

 

This made him frustrated. He had intended to make a move against the Primary Hope Holy Church after his birthday party was over. Regardless, he had to take control of the Mirror of Reincarnation.

 

Since it was his birthday, he invited Elder Jin to come over. Much to his surprise, Elder Jin arrived much earlier and suggested coming to the Primary Hope Holy Church as he needed to discuss something with the Primary Hope Saintess.

 

Hence, Chu Gucheng tagged along and came to this place.

 

“As far as I’m concerned, she’s not such a tactless person. There must be a reason that she repeatedly refused to see you.” Elder Jin appeared doubtful as he told him his speculation.

 

He had learned from Chu Gucheng that The Primary Hope Saintess had turned him down three times with the excuse that she was in seclusion.

 

He understood the Primary Hope Saintess well, so he knew that she was not a tactless and unfeeling person.

 

Moreover, Chu Gucheng and the Primary Hope Saintess could be considered acquaintances. They had collaborated once to deal with the remnants of the Black Disaster.

 

Why would the Primary Hope Saintess avoid seeing Chu Gucheng when the Land of Celestial Suffering was currently facing a crisis?

 

Chu Gucheng smiled upon hearing that. “The Primary Hope Saintess might have her reason for refusing to see me. Anyway, we’ll only find out when she shows up.”

 

Elder Jin nodded and looked at Chu Gucheng with a conflicted gaze. He was friends with Chu Gucheng’s Master, the Dharma Sage.

 

Before Chu Gucheng built the Land of Celestial Suffering, he was almost killed by the current Sect Master of Purple Sky Mountain. Elder Jin decided to save his life after receiving a request from the Dharma Sage. It was for this reason that Chu Gucheng revered him.

 

While they were conversing, the clouds suddenly dispersed. The sky brightened as an alluring figure emerged.

 

She had tied up her hair as some of it hung down to her lower back. Her face was covered with a veil, and her eyes were enchanting. Below her sleeves were her fair hands, which were placed on her belly. Her beauty was so surreal that it was as though she was stepping out of a drawing.

 

Although Chu Gucheng had seen the Primary Hope Saintess before, he was still awestruck by her beauty.

 

He had seen countless beautiful women before, but none of them were comparable to her. Even if some of them were just as good-looking, they were nowhere near as charming.

 

When the Primary Hope Saintess finally showed up, Chu Gucheng came to his senses. He was one of the strongest existences in the Primary Hope Civilisation, after all. If he lost his composure at this point, he would be a laughing stock when word got out.

 

“Greetings, Elder Jin and Brother Chu.” The Primary Hope Saintess swept a glance over them before saluting them.

 

She was always taciturn and dispassionate. Even though Elder Jin was friends with her Master, she was still calm and collected when in front of him.
