The Anatta Grand Exalt was a sovereign of the world with four ways comprehended to completion. She was also the undisputed greatest expert of the current day in the Saints’ World. There was absolutely no doubt over her strength.
At this moment, her unstable emotional fluctuations directly interfered with the ways of the world, making the laws of the Saints’ World pulse and enter disorder.
After all, Grand Exalts represented the heavenly ways to a certain extent. An expert like that was completely capable of bending the heavenly ways and the entire world to their will.
At this moment, at every corner of the vast Saints’ World, whether it was the forty-nine great planes or the eighty-one great planets, all the cultivators who could sense the laws of the world could clearly sense the disorder.
The disturbed laws influenced the billions of cultivators throughout the Saints’ World.
Even the seven Saint Monarchs, the Nine Brilliance Star Lord, and the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng were affected. Their usage and grasp over the laws became more difficult.
“The Anatta Grand Exalt has been angered. I didn’t expect a mere Chaotic Prime junior could actually anger our Saints’ World’s greatest sovereign so much.”
“Even the light around the Anatta Grand Exalt is flickering violently. I really wonder just how intense the fury is to make the greatest sovereign of our Saints’ World lose his composure like this.”
“I’ve lived for countless years and I’ve seen the Anatta Grand Exalt a few times before, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen him so angry.”
“Hmph, don’t you remember that the sovereigns of the Immortals’ World had just launched an assault on our Saints’ World with such a large disturbance, forcing the Anatta Grand Exalt to leave this world to fend them off? Yet in the end, the successor of that old bastard Violet Heavens was hiding in our Saints’ World. How can the Anatta Grand Exalt not be angered?”
The peak experts all sighed as they watched the Anatta Grand Exalt approach Jian Chen, communicating between themselves secretly. Their voices were all filled with emotion.
When they discussed a sovereign, none of them dared to speak up verbally. They all communicated through methods inaudible to others.
“And they say the Anatta Grand Exalt’s ninth disciple is Jian Chen’s sworn brother. Now that the Anatta Grand Exalt has found out about Jian Chen’s true identity, how can he not be furious? After all, the successor of the twin swords has become a sworn brother of his own disciple. That’s a huge insult to any sovereign,” the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch of the Thousand Mechanisms clan said. He hovered in outer space calmly, shining with blinding light beside the six other Saint Monarchs. He even stroked his long beard calmly, continuing, “This Jian Chen sure is rather capable. Not only has he established close ties with the ninth disciple of the Anatta Grand Exalt, he’s even the younger brother of the Snow Goddess’s reincarnation. If he hadn’t exposed the twin swords which gave away his true identity this time and was allowed to continue to grow, who knows what would have ended up happening.”
Many of the peak experts present sighed. All of them could tell the Anatta Grand Exalt was extremely furious this time, even raging with anger. Even the laws had been affected.
“Bloodtear, what exactly is happening with Anatta?” On another side, the Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt asked the Bloodtear Great Exalt in surprise.
As a sovereign, he could sense much more than the other peak experts. He did not believe this was a result of the Anatta Grand Exalt’s anger.
“Just watch. You’ll find out very soon,” the Bloodtear Grand Exalt said indifferently. He was an established Grand Exalt after all. Both his knowledge and experiences far surpassed any newly-broken-through Grand Exalt.
By now, the Anatta Grand Exalt had already arrived before Jian Chen, standing just three metres away from him. The light around her pulsed violently, flickering about. She just stared at Jian Chen and said nothing.
Jian Chen’s expression became mixed as he stared at her. He once again recalled how he had crossed the Bridge of Life and Death and finally met with the Anatta Grand Exalt back then in order to save fairy Hao Yue.
“Sir Grand Exalt, thank you for saving my friend back then. However, I’ve disappointed you, because I wield the twin swords and the progenitor of my lineage, the Violet Heavens Grand Exalt, is from the Immortals’ World.” Jian Chen’s voice was feeble. “However, fairy Hao Yue has nothing to do with this. I hope she won’t be affected because of me.”
The Anatta Grand Exalt said nothing. She stood before Jian Chen silently as her presence remained unstable, facing internal conflict.
A wry smile gradually formed on Jian Chen’s face. He glanced past the experts gathered there. “I know I must die today. To be able to draw over so many seniors and experts, even the audience of sovereigns themselves, despite being a Chaotic Prime, is an honour, even if I must die.”
“Do you really want to die?” The Anatta Grand Exalt finally spoke. That was the first sentence she had said since arriving here.
But this time, her voice was no longer the sound of the ways that seemed to contain all the sounds of the world.
This time, it was clearly a woman’s voice, pleasing to the ear, like the sounds of nature.
However, the wonderful voice was clearly slightly shaky.
On the brink of death, Jian Chen obviously did not care about these details. He said calmly, “I obviously don’t want to die, but given the circumstances, my fate is no longer for me to decide. But that’s fine too. I was already expecting this before I fused the swords. I would have died anyway. At least dying here is better than dying by the hand of Nan Potian.”
The light around the Anatta Grand Exalt shook violently. She murmured with a voice only audible to her, “This day shouldn’t have come so quickly. Why, why wasn’t it with you? None of this should have happened.”
“Sigh, I’ve come late.” At this moment, an old voice rang out in outer space with a sigh, except most of it was pity.
An elderly figure appeared out of thin air beside the Anatta Grand Exalt. His body was illusionary, so it was not his main body.
“Greetings, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths!”
The illusionary figure’s appearance led to another solemn bow and greeting from all of the experts present.
The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths had descended here with a sliver of his will. He stood beside the Anatta Grand Exalt, gazing at Jian Chen with mixed emotions. He sighed gently. “I didn’t expect this to happen from a slight neglect. Sigh.”
“Jian Chen, do you know who I am?” The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths gazed at Jian Chen with a gaze that no one could understand. He did not give off any pressure at all, so he just seemed like a regular old man.
“They’ve already told me. You’re one of the seven Grand Exalts of the past, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths!” Jian Chen replied instinctively.
“That’s right. I am Ancient Paths, but I’m also Chanlong from the past!” the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths said.
“Master Chanlong?” Jian Chen blanked out. The old man who carried around a disc and possessed extremely great mastery over the Way of Formations crossed his mind instinctively.
The experts in the surroundings were all dumbfounded. They were tongue-tied. What was Jian Chen’s luck? He was actually an old acquaintance of the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths too.
