In order to live immortal, I changed a martial artist world to a xianxia world

Chapter 54: Because I, Bai Chen, Am Here!

“Events in Seven Heroes Town?”

“There haven’t been any particularly interesting ones!”

“However, with the spread of news about immortal opportunities, martial artists are unusually active throughout the Ming territory these days.”

“Even though Seven Heroes Town is a small place, large numbers of martial artists pass through every day now.”

“In short, the town is far livelier than before!”

“Just recently, several martial artists heard about you, Young Master, and even came by specifically to pay their respects!”

“Unfortunately, you weren’t home at the time, so I had to turn them away.”

Standing before Bai Chen, the elderly steward, Li Fu, spoke in a measured and respectful tone.

Hearing this, Bai Chen pondered briefly before nodding. A faint smile crept onto his lips as he replied, “I see. You’ve handled things well as always, Fu Bo. You may carry on with your duties.”

“Yes, Young Master!” Li Fu bowed and left without hesitation.

As the loyal steward of Bai Manor, Li Fu was accustomed to Bai Chen’s occasional absences and ensured the estate remained orderly during those times.

Watching him leave, Bai Chen murmured to himself, “So, even staying in Seven Heroes Town these days won’t be dull, it seems.”

Moments later, he rose and walked toward the well-known Tongfu Inn.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………..

Bai Chen found himself sitting in a quiet corner of the inn, observing the crowd.

“Dull,” he muttered under his breath, shaking his head. “All I see are small fry.”

For the past several days, Bai Chen had frequented the Tongfu Inn, a popular spot for travellers and martial artists passing through the town.

But to his dismay, none of the visitors were noteworthy. The most skilled among them were merely at the peak of the Profound Realm.

“The town’s too small, after all,” Bai Chen sighed, his interest waning.@@novelbin@@

“Disappointed?”

A voice came from beside him. Turning, Bai Chen saw Bai Zhantang, a waiter at the inn and someone he had grown familiar with recently, standing there with a smirk.

“You seem eager to say something,” Bai Chen replied, smiling faintly.

Bai Zhantang nodded knowingly. “Let me share a thought, then:

‘The martial world… wherever there are people, there’s the martial world. But there’s a vast difference between settling in one place and walking its dangerous roads.’”

“You’ve roamed the Jianghu before, haven’t you? Surely, you’ve met many masters and seen countless fascinating things. Seven Heroes Town, though, is a quiet, ordinary place—it could never compare to that.”

He paused, giving Bai Chen a meaningful look before adding, “Simplicity, my friend, is what makes this town special.”

Bai Chen chuckled softly. “I understand your point, Bai.”

“But let me tell you something: Do you think Seven Heroes Town will remain quiet forever?”

Bai Zhantang raised a brow but said nothing.

Bai Chen stood, his tone confident as he declared, “I say no! Seven Heroes Town won’t stay silent.

“And why, you ask?”

“Because I, Bai Chen, am here!”

Bai Zhantang shook his head, a faint smile on his lips. “Alright, Bai Chen. I’ll hold you to that bold statement.”

“You should,” Bai Chen replied with a smirk.

Still, Bai Zhantang couldn’t help but think Bai Chen’s confidence, while admirable, was slightly misplaced. He sighed inwardly. This young master talks big, he mused but said nothing aloud.

Bai Chen, for his part, stood up, ready to leave the inn.

“You’ll see, Bai Zhantang,” he said over his shoulder, “The world will come to Seven Heroes Town. Just wait and see.”
