Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 923 - 905: Come Down and Talk (Two Chapters in One) (2)

As one of the individuals with the highest status in the tribe, the High Priest would certainly understand this principle.

"Your Excellency must have come from afar, and must already be somewhat weary. Please follow me; I will immediately have some fine sheep milk wine and the best beef and mutton prepared to entertain you." The High Priest greeted Qin Heng with a charming smile, his attitude even somewhat humble, lowering himself significantly.

"Then thank you very much." Qin Heng nodded slightly, and beckoned to Toya, saying, "Miss Toya, are you not going inside? This is your home after all."

"Huh?" Toya was suddenly stunned, looking at Qin Heng with extreme confusion. She never expected this situation, why was the High Priest so respectful to this person, what on earth was going on?

The surrounding people were also shocked, all staring at Qin Heng in disbelief, their expressions filled with sheer amazement at the sight before them, feeling utterly incredible!

The High Priest, a presence akin to a god, was showing such deference to this outsider, how could such a thing happen, it's too outrageous!

The most shocked of all was Toge, who was now completely dumbfounded.

The robust and brawny Toge even felt his legs trembling; he wasn't a fool, and previously it was only out of concern for his sister Toya that he targeted Qin Heng. But now, seeing even the High Priest treating Qin Heng with such respect, he immediately felt intimidated and fearful.

Toge was well aware that although he was the son of the Prairie King, he was just one among many sons. Unlike the beloved Prairie Shine, Toya, the King's attitude towards him wasn't particularly kind.

If, because of this incident, the High Priest became displeased, mentioned this matter before Harbala, then Toge was certain it would be impossible for him to strive for the throne or receive divine blessings in the future!

"What do I do, what should I do now!?!" Toge's back was drenched in cold sweat, his armor soaked, he was utterly flustered. He glanced at Qin Heng, bit his teeth, and his legs directly gave way.

Thud!

This man, over six feet tall, clad in armor, robust and burly, directly kneeled before Qin Heng, his attitude completely shifted from arrogance and pride to utter humility, bowing his head deeply to Qin Heng.

"I'm sorry, your Excellency, I didn't know your identity and recklessly obstructed you. I'm truly sorry, it's all because of my ignorance. Whatever compensation you desire, I will do everything in my power to provide, only asking for your forgiveness for my ignorance!"

Silence!

A profound silence blanketed the area as all eyes focused on Toge, in utter shock.

Especially those ordinary prairie folk.

Seeing Toge kneeling before Qin Heng, they were left dumbstruck, speechless, nearly doubting whether they were hallucinating.

This was the son of the Prairie King, a prince of the prairie!

How could he kneel to this unknown foreigner with such humility and sincerity to apologize, what on earth was happening here!?

Qin Heng seemed oblivious, not even sparing a glance.

Toya was also stunned, her gaze shifting between Qin Heng and Toge, completely unable to comprehend the situation, even less understanding why Toge would act this way.

The High Priest cast a deep glance at Toge, his furrowed brow slightly relaxing, then turned to Qin Heng, asking softly, "Your Excellency, this is our King's son, his behavior was indeed somewhat reckless..."

"I can pretend I never saw him." Qin Heng said mildly.

Toge had merely relied on brute force training and innate physicality to barely reach the Innate realm; to him, such a being was no different from an ant, not worth attention at all.

"Your Excellency is truly benevolent." The High Priest breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Toge, saying, "Why aren't you thanking this Excellency for his magnanimity!?"

"Thank you, Your Excellency! Thank you, Your Excellency!" Toge expressed gratitude repeatedly, then, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, stood and awkwardly exited the scene.

Toya remained in a state of bewilderment, unable to grasp what had transpired.

She vaguely sensed that her brother, Toge, had paid a price and offered a compensatory apology due to previous disrespect towards Qin Heng. However, as to why such disrespect warranted this response, she could not fathom.

"High Priest, this Xuantian... is he very powerful?" Toya, straightforward and unable to hide her thoughts, directly asked the question she couldn't figure out.

"..." The High Priest hesitated momentarily, caught off guard by Toya's question, then glanced at Qin Heng, who nodded in response, and said, "This Xuantian, indeed, is exceedingly powerful."

"More powerful than Father and the High Priest?" Toya asked again.

"..." The High Priest was left speechless, unsure of how to respond.

"I'm just someone with a bit of cultivation, nothing significant," Qin Heng replied with a gentle smile, as warm as sunlight, and then said, "Shall we? High Priest, there are some matters I wish to inquire about."

"Alright, please follow me." The High Priest led the way.

Before arriving at the Prairie King's city with Toya, Qin Heng had already adjusted and concealed his cultivation aura using his Divine Sense.
