To the surprise of all the inner disciples, not only did Elder Shen treat Qingyi with great kindness, but he even offered him a seat beside himself.
Even they, the inner disciples, had to remain standing, not daring to show disrespect to an elder of the First Step of the Path of Extinction Realm.
"Tell me, young man, where are you from? Dragons aren't common in this region." The elder asked, looking at Qingyi with curious eyes.
Qingyi didn't answer immediately, checking with Ruxue to see if it would be okay to use his identity as a young man who had just ascended from the immortal heavens.
When she replied that it was fine and that, in fact, it might even be good to divert attention from him, he was honest.
"Actually, Senior, I am an ascendant from the Immortal Heaven. I have just arrived in the Celestial Heaven and entered the selection process of the Cosmic Dawn Sect accompanying Young Master Chen."
"Hm..." Elder Shen scratched his chin, a little disappointed.
