I Can Track Everything

“How could it be you!?!”

Xiao Liang took two steps backwards with an extremely sullen expression. As for the other six people, they were completely frozen in place as they were suddenly at a loss for what to do.

Chen Chen said with a faint smile, “Exactly, it’s me. Why? Are you surprised? Are you shocked? Do you feel like you’ve got what you want effortlessly?”

Xiao Liang forced himself to suppress the shock in his heart and turned around to fly away, but at this very moment, a powerful divine sense attack directly blasted into his sea of consciousness, knocking him off balance. He stumbled and fell to the ground, plunging straight into the hall.

The other six cultivators of imperial dynasties were in a worse state than him as they started rolling on the ground while shrieking in agony.

The shrieks and howls of pain reverberated in the hall. They seemed to be in tragic states.

“Don’t move around, or none of you will have the chance to detach your Essence Souls from your bodies.”

Chen Chen stood up and slowly walked towards the seven of them. In no time, he was right in front of them.

The seven of them struggled to stand up, but they didn’t dare to move around easily or look Chen Chen in the eye and were all hanging their heads low with pale faces.

After the pain they had just experienced, they did not doubt that the man in front of them could easily kill them.

Looking at the seven people, including Xiao Liang, who was trembling, Chen Chen mocked, “I’ve only been in the Boundless Sea for a short while, and you guys are already so eager to hunt me down?”

Hearing this, Xiao Liang forced a smile and said, “We can’t help it. We don’t have a choice, since we are here by the orders of our superiors.”

As soon as he said that, the other six people immediately looked bitter and melancholic. One of them even said slowly, “We want to deal with the demon race, but we can’t defy the orders of our superiors.”

Chen Chen sneered. ‘Seems like they’re really desperate to live, huh? They’re playing the sympathy card immediately.’

If it was in the past, he might have been soft-hearted and even considered releasing them, but now, it was impossible for him to do that.

Without hesitation, Chen Chen sealed their cultivation levels.

Upon realizing that they couldn’t sense their cultivation level, a look of dismay appeared on the faces of all seven of them. They were just pretending before, but now, it was true.

“Chen Chen… Actually, I’ve always admired you for being young, talented, and successful. I’ve indeed gone overboard this time. How about I go back and put in a word for you? Maybe there is still a turnaround in this matter.”

Xiao Liang did not know what Chen Chen intended to do, so a trace of fear vaguely appeared on his elegant and easy-going face.

Chen Chen smiled quietly.

‘What chancellor of the Great Jing Dynasty? Now that his life is in the hands of someone else, and he’s at the mercy of others, he’s no different from an ordinary person.’

“Chen Chen, you can’t kill us… the human race can’t afford to lose this powerful force today!”

Another cultivator said as he trembled.

Although he was only a Nascent Soul realm cultivator, he had no choice but to be thick-skinned, and call himself a powerful force unabashedly.

Chen Chen did not answer and instead, clapped his hands. Soon, several cultivators of the Merchant Alliance entered the palace.

“Give each of them a harpoon and send them to the fish farm on the island to fish.”

“Yes!”

Without saying a word, those few cultivators took out several steel harpoons and handed them to each of the seven cultivators.

Looking at the elegant and easy-going Xiao Liang holding a harpoon and cowering, Chen Chen found it a bit interesting.

“I will release the first person to catch 3,000 while the rest will be thrown into the sea to feed the sea demons. Okay, that’s all I have to say, you’re on your own.”

After saying that, Chen Chen turned around and stopped looking at them.

Xiao Liang and the other seven cultivators held their harpoons with looks of dismay on their faces. They followed behind the merchant cultivators and left the palace.

Only after Xiao Liang and the others were taken away, did Xia Xishuang burst into laughter behind the curtain.

“Chen Chen, you actually let Xiao Liang, the prime minister of the Great Jing Dynasty, go fish… I really take my hat off to you.”

Chen Chen grinned and said, “Not to mention Xiao Liang, even if the Emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty comes, I’ll make him go fishing too. Since they chose to come to the Boundless Sea to hunt me down, they shouldn’t blame me for being ungracious. Since they have chosen to be merciless, I can only be unrighteous.”

…

A day later.

The news that Chen Chen was the master of the Merchant Alliance of the Boundless Sea and that he had detained Xiao Liang, the Prime Minister of the Great Jing Dynasty, spread back to the human territory.

In the Eastern region of the demon race, the Emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty was enraged and he barked, “Chen Chen quietly became so powerful. Yet, none of you discovered a single thing. You people are really a bunch of good-for-nothings!”

The group of intelligence personnel below didn’t dare to make a single sound. The timid ones already had their foreheads drenched in sweat.

Seeing this scene, the emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty got increasingly enraged. Previously, there had been rumors that the master of the Merchant Alliance could control the sea demons.

That meant that Chen Chen was invincible in the Boundless Sea.

The more troublesome thing for them was that the Merchant Alliance also had some forces on the mainland, so they couldn’t fight recklessly now.

Due to the fact that Xiao Liang and the others were still in Chen Chen’s hands, they probably would never have the chance to return, if things got physical.

“Chen Chen… is so cunning!”

The Emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty’s gaze flickered, but he was secretly wary.

If Chen Chen killed Xiao Liang and the rest, he may have the chance to strike against Chen Chen in the name of righteousness in the future. After all, the sea demons may be powerful. but the Void Refinement realm cultivators were not weak either.

However, Chen Chen was merely just holding Xiao Liang and the other captives, so he couldn’t do anything to Chen Chen.

Once he attacked, the people of the dynasty would naturally think that he had given up on the prime minister whose cultivation level was at the peak of the Essence Soul realm.

By then, who would be willing to work hard for the dynasty then? Even though they would remain cordial on the surface, there would nevertheless be seeds of discord within their hearts.

At the thought of this, the emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty felt a headache coming on, and he closed his eyes before sneering. “Inform the ancestor about this matter, and leave it to him to decide what to do next.”

“Yes!”

…

In the underground hall of the palace of the Great Jing Dynasty.

Bai Dongsheng soon received the news. As a top powerhouse who had survived after a failed tribulation transcendence, he valued his life more than anything else, so much that his obsession was vaguely twisted.

Looking at the seal left on his body, his face was incredibly sullen.

He wanted to exert his power without restraint, but he had to break the seal in order to do so. Once he does, the ascension tribulation would arrive in a short period of time.

The most secure way to pass the tribulation safely would be to use the possession method to kill Chen Chen.

However, Chen Chen was now hiding in the Boundless Sea, and he could even control the sea demons, which was a bit of a problem.

Of course, he can break the seal and go straight to the Boundless Sea, to take a gamble with his cultivation level that was at the peak of the Void Refinement realm.

However, he wasn’t willing to do that, simply because he was afraid of death and didn’t dare to do so even if there was a chance of success.

If he rushed over and failed to kill Chen Chen, he would very likely die in the tribulation.

Thinking about the horror of the Ascension Tribulation, Bai Dongsheng’s pupils kept contracting, and his emotional trauma and phobia kept affecting his rationality.

“I can’t die… I definitely can’t die! Since I survived the previous tribulation, this means that Heaven has taken a liking to me! He wants me to ascend!”

Smack!

However, the more he was afraid of something the more it would happen. At this moment, a crack appeared in the seal on his body, and it seemed to be on the verge of breaking.

The horror and fear of being on the verge of death immediately shrouded his body, making him shudder.

“No! I have to make other preparations!”

After muttering softly, Bai Dongsheng shuddered and took out the communication token to relay a message.

If there were outsiders present at this moment, they would be incredibly astonished. Who would have thought that a famous peak Void Refinement powerhouse would shudder out of the fear of death?
