Li Zhihua was stunned to hear the question. For a slight moment, he did not answer right away. His head looked up. The wind blew, blowing softly his semi-transparent purple robe which layerng his inner hanfu. Her long hair that reached her knees swayed.

"Do you know who this venerable is?”

"No, but I have my guess. Now, I bailed you out from the cops. Now, all I need you to just merely answer my question earlier. "

He let out an audible long sigh.

"Yes. This Venerable comes from Celestial Realm. "

Wu Yifan’s mouth was wide-open. His expression turned shocked, as if he had just won billion yuans from lottery. Out of surprise, the young man now clenched his hands in full spirit. It was seems as the guy had just found something he had been missing for life and got it back after millenium years of despair.

Li Zhihua's eyebrows linked. He was astonished at the attitude of the young man.

"By the way, what's your name?"

In the place where he came from, only less than ten people who knew his real names. He was more well-known by many titles such as Supreme Entity, Supreme Venerable, Venerable Sage, or Immortal Emperor. However, this kind of situation made him realise, whoever he was in the upper realm, in this realm, he had to introduce himself properly. Moreover, the man had just helped him.

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"This Venerable name... is Li Zhihua."

A moment later, Wu Yifan suddenly smiled, then introduced himself with polite salute of a daoist : a bow with hand intertwined.

"My name is Wu Yifan. I am a historian. Pleasure to mee you, Li Zhihua. "

His attitude that changed politely made Li Zhihua smile. His hands formed baoquan li, small bent.

He nodded, returning his gesture with sincere bow.

"Eh, but ... by the way, I'm not comfortable calling you by name directly. If you are from the Celestial Realm, doesn't that mean you are already thousands of years old? ”

Li Zhihua nodded innocently. It probably so. There was a huge different of time in the Celestial Realm and the mortal world. He didn’t know much the exact calculation for it, nonetheless.

"So, let me call you senior. Senior doesn't mind, right? " Wu Yifan asked with a look of hope. He suddenly felt as he just met a senior daoist and discreetly excited. "And... you may call me Yifan, by the way."

"Yifan, I see." Li Zhihua nodded once, before he looked around "Where exactly are we now, if this Venerable may ask?”

"We are in China, senior."

"China?” Where is that, anyway? He murmured while stroking his chin. "What world are we in, exactly?"

"We? We are on earth. "

"The third world ..." Li Zhihua murmured.

It was the world where he came from before he ascended. At that time, he was young, who was on his journey to become a cultivator. This world was abundant with rare herbs. Some he had found not even grew in other world, even other realm. Looking around, it felt rather surreal for him to know that those green verdures of trees was now replaced by tall, and towering buildings as it was going to challenged the sky.

How many thousand years has passed, actually?

Seeing a number of people coming in and out of several nearby buildings, Li Zhihua was reminded by some buildings that had just collapsed by his grand, yet catasthropic arrival.

"Yifan ... do you know the area where I fell earlier?"
