"Chen Yu greets Brother Ji."
"Chen Huang greets Brother Ji."
"Chu Yan'er, greets Brother Ji!"
The remaining two men and one woman were of a similar age to Ji Hong, also in their early twenties. Their response was noticeably less enthusiastic than the four older individuals, merely cupping their hands in a slight bow to Ji Hong.
Seeing those three young people, all possessing only Earth-digging Realm cultivation, Ji Hong immediately lost interest and turned to Chen Yiqing, his expression somewhat peculiar.
He didn't even know how he ended up talking to the other party so far; having just jumped down from the tree, he simply wanted the eight people to leave quickly. Yet, somehow, he got into a conversation with Chen Yiqing and even introduced himself.
"Brother Ji, don't overthink, although Chen is of humble origin, I greatly love making friends from all walks of life. Seeing such a heroic youth, I couldn't help but want to build a friendship, forgive my boldness..."
