Xiao Chen, upon hearing this, turned around and looked directly at the stooped old man for the first time.
"Immortal Emperor, fifth rank, Cultivation Level not weak!"
Xiao Chen commented indifferently.
However, the stooped old man, finding those words beneath him, said, "I am only trapped here for too long, with my cultivation suppressed, causing me to fall to the rank of a fifth-rank Immortal Emperor!"
After a pause, he added, "The fact that you say a fifth-rank Immortal Emperor is not weak proves that you are nothing much!"
"Is this you mocking me, or consoling yourself?" Xiao Chen chuckled.
"Why would I need to console myself?" The stooped old man's expression darkened.
"Of course, because my arrival has transcended your expectations, and together with Yomotsu's praise of me, it has started to make you afraid, so you seek a bit of self-confidence — which is just a mental victory!" Xiao Chen said lightly.
