Shadow of an Old Friend

Tian Wu's appearance made many people curious about who this newcomer was.

Most people with an Elder's recommendation token were quite famous; cases like Tian Wu were relatively rare, but they did happen occasionally.

Every time such a case appeared, it would pique the curiosity of some.

Furthermore, these situations were categorized into Ranks, as the status of different Elders varied.

Most people here were recommended by Golden Core Stage Elders.

Just then, another woman arrived.

As soon as this woman appeared, she drew everyone's attention.

"Isn't that the Young Miss of the Hu Family? As expected, she came too."

"She is a descendant of Elder Hu's Family. She's truly different; with Elder Hu as her background, no one dares to provoke her."

Watching this, Tian Wu knew who this Elder Hu was—a Nascent Soul Stage Elder who was quite famous in the Xuantian Sect.

At this moment, a person in front of Tian Wu looked back at him and began to strike up a conversation.

"Brother, which Elder recommended you?"

Tian Wu rubbed his head. "I also obtained a recommendation token by chance. That Elder didn't seem very famous, and I've never met him before."

"I see. But as long as you have a recommendation token, it's fine. That way, you're at least guaranteed to join the Xuantian Sect."

Tian Wu nodded.

The two of them seemed to get along quite well while waiting in line and soon became acquainted.

It was almost time for their Elder tokens to be inspected.

During this period, some tokens from fairly well-known Elders appeared, causing a stir each time.

Those who had more powerful recommending Elders couldn't help but look a bit arrogant at those moments.

The inspecting Elders, seeing this scene, remarked:

"This time is similar to the last. We've seen many of these recommendation tokens many times before; they are all decent prospects."

The other one nodded. "I wonder if an unusual token will appear this time."

"According to some news, Elder Huo's token will appear this time."

"Elder Huo! The one who recently had a Breakthrough to Soul Transformation?"

"Exactly!"

"That is truly extraordinary. I just don't know which one it is; we must not be negligent when the time comes."

As the Disciples whose tokens were checked entered one after another.

Soon, it was the turn of the person in front of Tian Wu to have his Elder token inspected.

Dong Feng took out that Elder token. This token was different; its color was reddish, and it had a flame pattern on it.

The moment this token appeared, the two Elders recognized it; it was indeed Elder Huo's token.

"It appeared! It really appeared!"

Exclamations of surprise erupted from the people around.

"That's Elder Huo's token! It's actually Elder Huo's token! I finally got to see it today. This trip was worth it; I didn't expect to witness this scene."

After confirming the token, the two Elders immediately arranged for someone to lead Dong Feng inside.

Seeing this, Dong Feng spoke up, "Elders, I want to wait for my friend to finish before going in together."

Hearing this, the two Elders replied, "Of course, no problem. Which one is your friend?"

"He is right behind me."

The two Elders looked at Tian Wu; that would be over quickly.

The eyes of everyone present turned toward Tian Wu, and in an instant, he became the focus of the entire scene.

This guy was his friend; what exactly was his Elder token like?

They were all curious about which Elder's token it was.

The Young Miss of the Hu Family did the same, looking at Tian Wu in front of her.

The two Elders also did not dare to be negligent.

They immediately prepared to continue the inspection.

Seeing this situation, Tian Wu looked at Dong Feng, wondering if this guy was setting him up.

Forget it, I'll just have to bite the bullet and go for it.

Tian Wu came before the inspecting Elders.

An Elder said with a smile, "Young friend, take out your token."

Tian Wu then took out the token in his hand.

This token had no prominent features; it looked like an ordinary Elder's token.

Seeing this, some people felt a bit disappointed. "It's just an ordinary Elder's token, nothing special."

However, there was a 'Su' character on the token, and some people were wondering which Elder Su's token it was.

But for the two inspecting Elders, seeing this token was a different story.

They saw a small sword pattern beneath the 'Su' character on the token.

Seeing this, the two of them still found it hard to believe and did not make a sound for a moment.

They glanced at each other, both of their eyes filled with expressions of disbelief.

But their hands did not hesitate for a second as they immediately confirmed that this was Elder Su's token.

However, thinking of Elder Su's style of doing things, they still didn't make a fuss.

They hadn't expected Elder Su Yu's token to appear here; over all this time, Elder Su Yu's token had rarely appeared.

Now it had appeared again, and they were very clear about what Elder Su represented in the Sect now.

The two Elders immediately arranged for a receptionist for Tian Wu as well.

Tian Wu and Dong Feng then entered the Sect.

The surrounding crowd stopped paying attention, but the woman, the Young Miss of the Hu Family, had a look of disbelief in her eyes.

She recognized that token; she was very well-informed about the Elders of the Xuantian Sect, because someone in the Hu Family had always been researching the matters of those Elders.

Su Yu was among them, and the pattern of his Elder token had also been drawn by that person; the token that man took out was exactly Elder Su Yu's.

Furthermore, the look in the eyes of those two Elders just now was not right, and they didn't make a sound; indeed, if it were revealed, it would cause a massive sensation.

One must know that there were many Disciples who wanted to study under Elder Su; many Sect Disciples admired Elder Su greatly.

Exposing it would also cause some bad things to happen to that guy.

Right now, she was probably the only one who knew about this; perhaps she could make friends with this guy.

Tian Wu still didn't know which Elder Su the token belonged to, as the inspecting Elders hadn't told him.

But he had sensed the abnormality of the two Elders.

As for the onlookers, they didn't care much about these things.

Tian Wu arrived at the registration area. Dong Feng had already been taken away to his assigned residence.

Now it was his turn.

Soon, he arrived there with the token.

The registration Elder saw this token and recognized it at a glance.

"I didn't expect you, kid, to have obtained Elder Su's token. This token really hasn't appeared for a very long time."

"People who can gain Elder Su's appreciation are quite rare. Kid, you have a bright future."

Tian Wu was somewhat confused, but then he saw the name Su Yu written on the register.

He reacted instantly.

The person he met in that restaurant was Elder Su Yu. How could this be?

Thinking about his previous experience, he still hadn't fully recovered; no wonder those Elders acted strangely just now.

He hadn't expected that he would meet the Elder Su he had always wanted to see right from the start.

And he said that he had the shadow of an old friend; it turns out Elder Su always remembered.
