Li Chen's immense power draws the attention of Shi Yin Dao Saint, an executor appointed by Jian Ancestor. Despite Li Chen's recklessness, Shi Yin accepts his explanation for attacking Mie Xing, acknowledging the deep-seated hatred stemming from his family's demise. Shi Yin then recognizes Li Chen and attempts to punish him, but her powers halt and even repair his crumbling body. This leads her to question him about Jian Ancestor's aura on him, and if he was responsible for attacking Jian Ancestor's alter ego.

There was an inexplicable anger in Poem Shadow’s heart at this moment.

Not just because Li Chen might be the one who caused the sudden disappearance of the Jianmu Incarnation, but more importantly, because she had come out of Jiankong Realm to pursue him.

But in the end, she found him, yet he still escaped from right under her nose and even teased her harshly!

Thinking back to when she saw that guy on the Purple Robe Continent and couldn’t help but feel a hint of admiration, Poem Shadow’s face felt a bit hot.

Damn guy, after so many years, you’re the first person who dared to tease me Poem Shadow like this!

After being chosen as an Enforcement Certificate by the Jianmu Universe’s will, most people were full of awe and yearning towards Poem Shadow.

Because even though she was the same Palm Source Realm, she possessed power far beyond others of the same level. As long as she was within Jianmu Universe, facing true Origin Realm powerhouses, she was utterly fearless.

But today, she was deceived by a minor Soul Realm!

Indeed, others couldn’t see through him, but when she focused, she could immediately tell Li Chen’s current state.

Just a Soul Realm! Not some Source Mastery Realm Saint in disguise!

But his blade, why did it possess Palm Source Realm cultivation?

Poem Shadow felt this was the strangest combination she had ever seen in all these years.

No matter how strange, here, in Jianmu Universe, it’s her territory.

As long as in Jianmu Universe, she couldn’t allow anyone to cause trouble!

"Me?" Li Chen looked up at the renowned Lady Shi Yin, who was said to be absolutely invincible in Jianmu Universe.

"I’ve never seen any Jianmu Incarnation." Li Chen shook his head.

"Nonsense!" Lady Shi Yin glared: "Clearly, there is Jian Ancestor’s aura on you. If you haven’t encountered the Jianmu Incarnation, how would you have Jian Ancestor’s aura on you?"

"How should I know?" Li Chen smiled cynically: "Maybe because I’m quite special."

"Special?" Lady Shi Yin gave Li Chen a look, then somewhat suspiciously asked: "Is there anything special about you?"

Li Chen was about to pat his chest, but realized he couldn’t move, could only blink and say: "You didn’t notice I’m particularly handsome?"

Mie Xing: ...

Tao Wu: ...

Leiyang: "Here we go again?"

Qingqiu nodded: "Yes, again."

Everyone: ...

The entire area of Molting Dream Mountain, now that Molting Dream Mountain was gone, the entire region sank into an eerie silence.

If previously it was because Lady Shi Yin was too overpowering.

Now, everyone genuinely admired this white-haired outsider’s courage.

It takes so much guts to dare teasing Lady Shi Yin?!

Don’t they know this is a truly terrifying being even unafraid of Origin Realm powerhouses?

However, what left them dumbfounded was, after Li Chen spoke, Lady Shi Yin earnestly scrutinized Li Chen for a moment, then seemed to thoughtfully wrinkle her brow and said: "Indeed, there’s a bit of distinct aura, but saying that Jian Ancestor would bless you for that doesn’t seem quite reasonable."

This time, Li Chen was left speechless.

She actually... believed it?!

Moreover... what’s with that serious, thoughtful look?

Honestly, he was just making light of a bad situation for amusement. In a situation like this, facing such a level of powerhouse, he knew very well he had no ability to resist.

Unexpectedly... the other side believed it?

The Guardian of Jianmu Universe, a mighty Dao Saint that fears no Origin Realm powerhouse, is so adorably gullible?

"Lady Shi Yin, you mustn’t listen to this kid’s nonsense!" Mie Xing hurriedly spoke at that moment: "I’ve been in Jianmu Universe for so many years, you’ve seen it too, in all these years, I’ve never done anything harmful to Jianmu Universe, right?"

"But you haven’t done anything to aid Jianmu Universe either." Lady Shi Yin coldly replied.

One sentence rendered Mie Xing speechless.

If it wasn’t for Lady Shi Yin’s long-standing reputation for fairness and strictness, he might even suspect he was being targeted.

Why does she seriously consider the absurd words from that white-haired man, but immediately rebut me just as I start speaking?

Could it really be because of appearance?

Mie Xing fell into deep thought.

"You!"

At this moment, Lady Shi Yin looked at Li Chen and said: "Come with me to meet Jian Ancestor!"

Li Chen’s brow furrowed.

Honestly, if there was anyone in this universe he didn’t want to meet, the will of Jianmu Universe would definitely be one of them.

Though upon becoming universe will, compared to Jianmu itself, there shouldn’t be any personal emotions left.

However, Jianmu Universe is different from the Starry Universe; it has flaws.

Because of these flaws, such a vast universe retains a small part of conscious residue, unlike the Starry Universe where universe will is just a mere observer, never intervening in anything within.

Because, in the face of true universal will, everyone is insignificant.

Like Poem Shadow, Jianmu Universe’s will bestowed her power, hence she could contend with Origin Realm powerhouses.

Just from this incident, it’s easy to see.

As the grandest celestial body in Vast Nihility, the rank of a universe is above Origin Realm powerhouses.

Because even Origin Realm powerhouses only create Minor Universes.

How to become like Seven Divine Trees and transform oneself into a celestial Great Universe, that’s a mystery.

Nonetheless, no matter how they accomplish it, their power is indisputable.

"Meet Jianmu Universe’s will?" Li Chen frowned and flatly refused: "No."

Mie Xing sneered: "You say no and it’s a no, who do you think you are?"

Li Chen returned the same smile: "I know very well who I am, but I’d like to ask, do you remember what exactly you’re supposed to be?"

Mie Xing’s expression changed slightly but he remained silent.

Because he knew that, upon deeper inquiry, his identity would be even more unspeakable than Li Chen’s.

"Enough." Lady Shi Yin’s brow furrowed slightly: "You say you won’t go, what’s your reason?"

Li Chen leisurely replied: "Since you’ve already determined I’m not of Jianmu Universe, then there’s no need to constrain me with your Jianmu Universe rules, right? Now I’m still under your control, is this how guests are treated?"

"In that case, I don’t think there’s anything left to discuss between us. Of course, if you’re insistent, I can’t do anything about it. However, correspondingly, I’ll remember Jianmu Universe’s attitude, and as for how my universe will negotiate with Jianmu Universe, that’s not something I can decide!" Li Chen slowly said.

"Are you threatening my Jianmu Universe?" Lady Shi Yin asked sternly.

Li Chen smiled.

"Yes."
