The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3467 - 3462: Return to Bi Shuangxing_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
As the Spirit Separation Ancestor materialized behind the Xuanyang Palace Master, they shared a silent understanding, flicking their sleeves to erect layers upon layers of forbidden array formations surrounding them.
With the forbidden array formations now active, the space occupied by the pair became entirely isolated. No ordinary individual could eavesdrop on their words, let alone detect the events transpiring there.
During their clandestine encounter, the Spirit Separation Ancestor cut straight to the point: "Palace Master, how do we handle this Yang Chen?"
The Xuanyang Palace Master was seething with rage nowadays. He jabbed a finger at the Spirit Separation Ancestor and berated him, "Spirit Separation, do you realize that because of you, my Grand Abyss Palace has forfeited an unmatched genius? Yang Chen was all set to join our Grand Abyss Palace. But thanks to your damned brother Mo Wanchou, I warned you before—Mo Wanchou might be a Daoist Ancestor reincarnated, but if he keeps acting this way, disaster will strike him eventually. Yet you refused to heed me and kept spoiling him."
"In the end, Mo Wanchou grew jealous of Yang Chen and attacked him, leading to this colossal blunder! Without that, Yang Chen would already belong to my Grand Abyss Palace, and his prowess along with his Protector Emperor rank would have greatly benefited us!"
Faced with such a tirade from the Xuanyang Palace Master, the Spirit Separation Ancestor could only swallow his pride. He had overheard the entire exchange between Yang Chen and the Xuanyang Palace Master from his hiding spot moments ago.
"But dwelling on it now changes nothing since the deed is done. Besides, Yang Chen has become our Grand Abyss Palace's foe," the Spirit Separation Ancestor stated solemnly.
"Spirit Separation, it's lucky Yang Chen intends to head to Bi Shuangxing, or you'd be in deep trouble. He's already collecting proof against you, and your own followers might turn on you anytime. Should he leverage his Protector Emperor position to denounce you then, you'd face utter humiliation," the Xuanyang Palace Master remarked icily.
The Spirit Separation Ancestor responded with venom, "Palace Master, are we just going to let this brat run wild? On his journey to Bi Shuangxing, I'll ensure he never makes it back."
Letting out a heavy sigh, the Xuanyang Palace Master conceded, "Though I hate resorting to such tactics, this seems our sole option now."
For their Grand Abyss Palace to suffer disgrace and penalty from a Heavenly Extreme Realm entity would spell a devastating blow.
Yang Chen had to be removed.
"When heading to Bi Shuangxing, take care not to leave any traces. Yang Chen is shrewd beyond measure, having plotted each move against you. One slip, and you'll be the one paying the price," cautioned the Xuanyang Palace Master.
The Spirit Separation Ancestor sneered coldly, "No matter his cunning, he's merely at the Heavenly Fate Realm. This time, I'll make his end agonizingly brutal. Clever as he is, against overwhelming might, every trick of his crumbles to nothing."
Nodding in apparent approval, the Xuanyang Palace Master flicked his sleeve. "Just don't drag any misfortune onto our Grand Abyss Palace. Now go."
Once their talk concluded, the duo parted ways. Their covert discussion stayed hidden from all others.
...
At the same time, Yang Chen made his way back to the Divine Night Sect.
No sooner had he returned to the Divine Night Sect than Yang Chen went straight to Princess Wenqi to inquire about the matters in Bi Shuangxing.
Princess Wenqi held nothing back from Yang Chen, especially since he was so endearing and captivating in his own right.
"Bi Shuangxing? You're right to bring it up. Indeed, that's the situation. Currently, our Divine Night Sect has dispatched three early Heavenly Fate Realm powerhouses to probe it. We have no intel on how many the other two great forces sent. These subterranean upheavals in Bi Shuangxing are exceptionally bizarre. Reflecting on it, if Grand Abyss Palace assigned Zhang Xuelian there, things might be far more complex than they seem," Princess Wenqi explained.
"Does Zhang Xuelian hold significant influence?" Yang Chen probed.
"As the direct disciple of the Pasara Ancestor, her power is undeniable. She enjoys a uniquely elevated position within the Grand Abyss Palace. Typically, Sky Separation Realm guardians from the Grand Abyss Palace escort her on outings. After all these years, her divine abilities and techniques must have grown even more formidable than anyone imagines. Both you and your wife defy conventional understanding," Princess Wenqi replied.
Yang Chen rubbed his nose, gaining further insight into his enigmatic wife.
Then, he declared, "Junior intends to head to Bi Shuangxing on this journey."
"Off to visit your wife?" Princess Wenqi questioned, "But have you considered the risks? Going to Bi Shuangxing at this moment would hand your enemies a perfect chance to strike."
Yang Chen responded with composure, "Junior learned from Gu Zhuicheng that the Spirit Separation Ancestor plots against me. Yet, relying only on the memories from the three captives I've interrogated, Senior Wenqi, what odds do you give me for defeating the Spirit Separation Ancestor?"
"Defeating the Spirit Separation Ancestor? You mean forcing him into a fatal bind?" Princess Wenqi inquired.
Yang Chen remarked, "What else could it be, Senior Wenqi? Sparing him would likely doom Junior instead, as events have clearly shown."
Princess Wenqi let out a sigh, "I simply find it regrettable for a Daoist Ancestor powerhouse to... vanish just like that."
"Right now, these clues alone make it tough to slay the Spirit Separation Ancestor." Yang Chen shook his head before adding, "Thus, Junior isn't rushing into action."
"So you're saying..." Princess Wenqi abruptly grasped the implication.
Yang Chen gestured to silence Princess Wenqi, then quietly sent her a message via sound transmission.
Soon after, Yang Chen departed from the area.
Having prepared within the Divine Night Sect over a few days, Yang Chen departed Grand Abyss Palace toward Bi Shuangxing.
Meanwhile, once Yang Chen was gone, Princess Wenqi declared her entry into secluded cultivation, barring anyone from nearing her retreat without her orders. Quite the mystery.
From Princess Wenqi, Yang Chen gained some grim intelligence. One must admit, Xuanyang Palace Master had been straightforward with him, holding nothing back on Bi Shuangxing affairs.
This deepened Yang Chen's value for his Protector Emperor status.
Reaching Bi Shuangxing proved swift. Familiar with the route and blessed with godlike velocity, Yang Chen soon hovered over Bi Shuangxing.
In no time, Yang Chen landed on Bi Shuangxing.
The moment he unleashed his Qi, Divine Night Sect powerhouses detected his presence on Bi Shuangxing.
Upon sensing him, these Divine Night Sect elites moved without delay. A Heavenly Fate Realm powerhouse even emerged.
They had detected Yang Chen's Qi at the World Life Stage, after all...
Yang Chen stood quietly as the Divine Night Sect experts approached, quickly spotting several known faces.
These were companions from his Bi Shuangxing days years back, like Han Bo and Lin Tianyi.
Also present was Sun Meng, the Heavenly Fate Realm master who once begged mercy for Yang Chen.
