The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3454 - 3449: Seeing Princess Wenqi Again_1

Who would dare to oppose Yang Chen when they meet him? The fearsome title of the God of Kill from those days still echoes powerfully across the lands, even after so many years have flown by.

He had slain over twenty experts at the Heavenly-separated Realm, and that feat was no empty boast or idle chatter.

Exactly for this reason, voices had risen within the Grand Abyss Palace, urging the complete uprooting of Yang Chen, warning that he would inevitably spell disaster once he gained greater power.

Yet he simply couldn’t fathom why Yang Chen had shown up in this place.

"Sit down?" Yang Chen said with a blank expression, "Is this how you welcome guests?"

"Master, Gu Zhui Cheng is scheming against me!" Liu Hen declared through clenched teeth.

Understanding his master’s immense might, Liu Hen now felt a pillar of support with Yang Chen there.

At Yang Chen’s current cultivation level, now that he was back, his divine sense spanned half the Taiyuan Star System, instantly revealing every detail to his perception with a mere scan.

Yang Chen hadn’t anticipated that trouble had befallen his disciple.

Thankfully, his timely return had prevented worse, and hearing Liu Hen’s words, Yang Chen’s face grew icy as his gaze toward Gu Zhui Cheng brimmed with killing intent.

Sensing that deadly aura, Gu Zhui Cheng trembled violently: "Senior Yang Chen, I only feared Junior Brother Liu Hen might decline."

"Feared a refusal? How intriguing. But now you needn’t fret over that. With me, his master, here, I’ll turn down this trip to the Grand Abyss Palace for my disciple." Yang Chen stated.

"If Senior Yang Chen insists, then of course there’s no issue. With nothing more to discuss, we’ll take our leave and won’t disturb Senior Yang Chen further." Gu Zhui Cheng responded in haste.

Yang Chen let out a cold sneer, "Since when did I permit your departure?"

"Y-Yang Chen, Senior!" Gu Zhui Cheng’s heart quaked, his frame quivering too.

Yang Chen declared icily, "You were so insistent on dragging my disciple to your Grand Abyss Palace, so as his master, I must return the favor. Come with me to the Divine Night Sect and have a seat. I’ll host you properly."

Gu Zhui Cheng paled in terror, realizing Yang Chen wouldn’t spare him lightly, and spat through gritted teeth, "Yang Chen, if you touch me or force me away, my master won’t let you off easily. The Grand Abyss Palace will hunt you down!"

"Hahaha, Gu Zhui Cheng, do you believe I, Yang Chen, fear that?" Yang Chen retorted fiercely.

These words prompted Gu Zhui Cheng to recall the deep-seated enmities between Yang Chen and the Grand Abyss Palace, yet Yang Chen thrived to this very day.

Would Yang Chen truly dread retaliation from the Grand Abyss Palace?

"You love forcing invitations on others, so now experience it yourself. Let’s move." With a flick of his sleeve, Yang Chen made all of Gu Zhui Cheng’s followers vanish instantly, as if they’d dissolved into nothingness.

Witnessing this, Gu Zhui Cheng’s eyes bulged wide, certain that his subordinates had all perished.

In the face of Yang Chen’s power, they’d been obliterated in a single breath, squashed like mere insects.

Daring no resistance, he had no choice but to submit obediently.

"Master, when did you return?" Liu Hen asked with bubbling excitement.

"I’ve just come back. While I was gone, your training never faltered—your power has climbed to the True God Realm. Impressive." Yang Chen nodded approvingly.

Though aware of Liu Hen’s average talent, even with the Divine Night Sect’s abundant resources, achieving such rapid progress demanded true diligence.

Liu Hen’s relentless toil aimed solely at winning his master’s recognition.

Since entering the Divine Night Sect, tales of Yang Chen’s legendary exploits had filled his ears endlessly. He recognized his master as a once-in-a-millennium genius unseen in the sect for ages.

Without exceptional achievements, how could he glorify his master and secure that prized approval?

His dedication had finally paid off.

"This incident today is a harsh reminder: your strength remains insufficient. True God Realm holds little weight in the Taiyuan Star System. Dedicate yourself to cultivation ahead, and stay put without wandering out for now." Yang Chen counseled.

"Yes, Master." Liu Hen assented promptly without a second thought.

Yang Chen’s directive for Liu Hen to remain indoors carried solid rationale behind it.

Now that he was back in the Taiyuan Star System, the moment had come to resolve the conflict between himself and the Grand Abyss Palace. A fierce storm was secretly gathering in the darkness.

All it needed was a single spark.

He had no desire for those near him to serve as the fuse for this blast.

Saying nothing more, Yang Chen flicked his sleeve, guiding Liu Hen and Gu Zhui Cheng toward the Divine Night Sect.

His current cultivation made crossing multiple interfaces a simple task. In under two days, Yang Chen stepped once more into the Divine Night Sect.

The instant he arrived at the Divine Night Sect, his presence was immediately sensed.

Moments later, a silhouette materialized overhead above the Divine Night Sect, followed by a crowd.

"Yang Chen, it really is you!"

The figure who arrived turned out to be Princess Wen Qi along with Ji Yue Shuang.

Ji Yue Shuang's face bloomed into a grin at the sight of Yang Chen, her delight clear as day. She and Yang Chen were close friends, something the entire Divine Night Sect knew well.

Princess Wen Qi, more reserved by nature, struggled to mask her shock and amazement upon spotting Yang Chen.

This was due to Yang Chen's cultivation having soared dramatically since his last departure.

"Yang Chen, your strength isn't at the Heavenly-separated Realm anymore, is it?" Princess Wen Qi said deliberately, "Just now, as you entered the Divine Night Sect, I detected your aura far exceeding the Heavenly-separated Realm."

In response to Princess Wen Qi's query, Yang Chen gave a faint smile, "Junior has luckily advanced to the Heaven-appointed Realm."

"What?!" Princess Wen Qi's red lips parted slightly in astonishment, "Your cultivation has truly reached the Heaven-appointed Realm? That's incredible, but now isn't the right time for such a hasty return. Even with Heaven-appointed Realm power, confronting the Spirit Separation Ancestor sans Protector Emperor title is like hurling an egg at a boulder."

From her perspective, Yang Chen's time away had been brief.

As for Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses, how much time had truly passed? How could he have gained the Protector Emperor title, especially with his cultivation only at the early Heaven-appointed Realm?

Observing Princess Wen Qi's worries, Yang Chen showed no surprise, merely smiling warmly. "It's a long tale. Once we're inside, I'll detail everything to Senior Wen Qi."

"Very well, that's right. Unless I'm wrong, the man behind you looks like he's from the Grand Abyss Palace. How did you catch him and drag him along?" Princess Wen Qi questioned, baffled.

Following Princess Wen Qi into the Divine Night Sect, Yang Chen revealed the full story to her, omitting nothing.
