The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3259 - 3254: Farewell to Wan Huaruo_1

Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
A group of returning Sky Separation Realm experts from Heavenly Melody Mountain, including Fairy Moon Fu and Mu Tianhe, stunned the Snake People's Royal Family and Grand Abyss Palace forces upon their arrival. Yang Chen revealed how he had long suspected Mo Dao's betrayal to the Netherworld, secretly trailing him to rescue the captives after a tense battle of wits with Huan Ye Ming Wang. A Soul Search exposed Mo Dao's treachery, leading the Wind Emperor to execute his own son in a moment of painful clarity, solidifying the Snake People's alliance against the Netherworld. As tensions eased with the rescuers' return, King Ming Cheng and his forces departed, leaving Yang Chen's group united in resolve to confront Huan Ye Ming Wang and reclaim the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag.

Mu Tianhe led the charge with his shout, and his companions echoed it without delay. Dread for Huan Ye Ming Wang and the Netherworld ghosts held no sway over them. Coming from Heavenly Melody Mountain as top elites, this boldness was only natural.

With Mu Tianhe and his group already on board, Broken River and the rest saw no reason to object.

Yet the Heaven-separated Realm experts from Blackstone Ancient Castle showed some reluctance.

"What, does Blackstone Ancient Castle have issues with this?" Mu Tianhe bellowed.

"No, none at all!" The Blackstone Ancient Castle members replied hastily, a touch of fear in their voices, but they knew pulling back now would yield nothing good. So they clenched their jaws and nodded along.

"Fine then, let's all prepare and head out. Right now, though, I've got one matter to handle first—I'll catch up soon," Yang Chen announced.

"Sure, that's fine."

"Yang Chen, wait just a second!" Fairy Moon Fu called out then, gazing at him with sparkling eyes full of eagerness.

Yang Chen turned to Fairy Moon Fu in astonishment: "What's on Fairy Moon Fu's mind?"

"Yang Chen, you got my private transmission, right?" Fairy Moon Fu stated.

At those words, Broken River and his allies stifled chuckles. Sympathy flickered in their glances toward Yang Chen.

Yang Chen clasped his hands behind him, puzzled. He recalled Fairy Moon Fu's secret note to him, where she professed deep admiration.

Still, from their first meeting until this moment, her gaze hadn't shown much of that respect. Instead, it carried something else entirely.

"I read it, but Fairy Moon Fu's claim of admiring me has to be a joke." Yang Chen let out a chuckle.

"How could it be a joke? I genuinely look up to Young Master Yang Chen, which is why I want to duel Young Master Yang Chen. Can you grant me that chance?" Fairy Moon Fu pleaded with hope.

Yang Chen froze at her words, "You wish to fight me?"

Broken River laughed softly nearby: "Brother Yang Chen, when my Junior Sister Moon Orchid takes a liking to someone, she insists on a challenge. To her, true admiration stems from power's reverence. But everyone she's ever admired has ended up losing to her."

Suddenly, Yang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He'd figured Fairy Moon Fu had her eye on him romantically, seeing it as a headache.

Who knew the headache would prove even bigger? This Fairy Moon Fu had such an odd personality.

Yang Chen shook his head in resignation. Clearly, his rising fame had sparked her interest, leading to that secret message inviting him to Heavenly Melody Mountain for a showdown.

Yang Chen remarked, "Junior Sister Moon Orchid, the world brims with mighty figures—why fixate on admiring and battling me?"

"It's different. Young Master Yang Chen's prowess is legendary, and back in my sect, few in the Heaven-separated Realm outmatch me—you could count them on fingers. Even if they beat me, I might not accept it. But you, Yang Chen, appear younger than I am, with even greater combat feats, so admiration grew for you naturally." Fairy Moon Fu explained.

Yang Chen's lips twitched: "Fairy Moon Fu, seek another opponent."

"Why not?" Fairy Moon Fu questioned, bewildered, her lips pursing in stubbornness.

Yang Chen had to concede that Fairy Moon Fu bloomed like a flower, her allure moon-like and captivating. Yet his heart stayed firm, and her ethereal charm paled a notch against Wan Huaruo's.

Now Yang Chen understood the sympathetic looks from those powerhouses.

"Fairy Moon Fu, have you considered why I'd accept your challenge? What's the gain for me in facing you?" Yang Chen replied coolly, "No upside exists, just pointless rivalry. I see zero reason to bother."

"You—you, Yang Chen, are you afraid?" Fairy Moon Fu snapped through clenched teeth, her arrogance flaring.

Yang Chen gave a light, mocking laugh and turned away without another word, vanishing swiftly.

Once gone, Fairy Moon Fu stamped her foot, teeth grinding: "How do I make him say yes?"

Yang Chen's reason for leaving was to return the Wheel of Destiny Mirror.

True to his promises, Yang Chen had borrowed the Wheel of Destiny Mirror and thus needed to give it back.

Reaching the pool at last, Yang Chen wasted no time and dove straight to its depths.

Wan Huaruo had lingered silently nearby; her eyes fluttered open softly as Yang Chen arrived.

"Young Master Yang Chen, you truly keep your vows," Wan Huaruo said with a smile.

"Of course. Here's the Wheel of Destiny Mirror back to you, Lady Wan. After this, our paths likely won't cross again," Yang Chen stated.

Wan Huaruo inquired, "Is Daoist friend Yang Chen intending to depart from Nine Dragons World?"

"After handling Huan Ye Ming Wang, yes, it's time to go," Yang Chen answered.

"Huan Ye Ming Wang? Be cautious against him, Daoist friend Yang Chen—his power is immense," Wan Huaruo warned gently.

Yang Chen probed, "Does Lady Wan know of this Huan Ye Ming Wang?"

"Much in Nine Dragons World comes to my knowledge," Wan Huaruo replied, her laugh like tinkling bells.

"Then why keep it from Wind Emperor?" Yang Chen asked, perplexed.

"I saw no point in bringing it up," Wan Huaruo murmured softly.

Yang Chen sensed her enigma deepening. But with no desire from her to elaborate, he couldn't press further.

"Farewell," Yang Chen sprang upward and departed with poise.

The Wheel of Destiny Mirror now rested on the table.

Wan Huaruo gazed after Yang Chen's vanishing form. Her lips curved faintly as a quiet sigh escaped: "The gap between early, middle, and late Heaven-separated Realm isn't vast, yet for one at the early stage to achieve so much shows his exceptional talent. Plus, he grasps the Way of Ten Thousand Laws. A figure like this is rare indeed. Meeting again will be tough. Time for me to go too—this spot isn't safe to linger."

Yang Chen held no full trust in her, just as she extended none to him. Should he depart and speak of her to other mighty ones, danger would surely follow for her.

On his way, Yang Chen pondered the giant egg affair deeply.

When sharing with Broken River and the others, he'd merely described the treasure in the Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower as a Heaven-appointed Realm legacy.

That tale held firm without cracks, keeping the giant egg's truth hidden from all.

Only Huan Ye Ming Wang knew of the giant egg now. Its secret weighed heavily, and fewer aware the better.
