Chapter 3516: Chapter 3516: World Destructive, Arrival (Fifth Update)
Ye Chen felt a very strong sense of unease.
The Demon Emperor might be about to make a move against the Divine Kingdom!
He must return to the Divine Kingdom as soon as possible!
"Wu You, I need to go to Refining God Peak first, then immediately head back to the Divine Kingdom! What are your plans?"
Ye Chen asked.
Wu You shook her head: "Ye Chen, I don’t plan to return to the Divine Kingdom, I have some matters to attend to in the Outer Realm."
"Also, I’ve suddenly become curious about the Heavenly Demon Land, I want to investigate where the Demon Emperor disappeared to!"
Ye Chen naturally wouldn’t force Wu You, he didn’t waste any more words and turned into a beam of golden light, disappearing from the spot.
After Ye Chen left, Wu You’s gaze settled on a particular direction.
It was a black vortex.
Cold and mysterious emanated from within the vortex.
This is where the Demon Emperor disappeared.
Wu You hesitated for a few seconds and still decided to walk toward that place.
Her bloodline seemed to be telling her there was something there attracting her!
She stood before the vortex, without any hesitation, and stepped directly in!
The vortex was like the mouth of a giant beast, completely devouring Wu You’s body.
Everything returned to calm.
...
Refining God Peak.
Ye Chen immediately saw Jin Shuhui.
Jin Shuhui recovered even better than expected, her level of cultivation had even made a breakthrough!
"Ye Chen, about the Slaughter Sword..."
Before she could finish, she noticed an unprecedented seriousness in Ye Chen’s eyes.
"Ye Chen, what’s the matter?"
Ye Chen’s magnetic voice rang out: "I encountered a fiend and went to the Heavenly Demon Land, but the issues there are more serious than imagined."
"I might need to immediately set out for the Divine Kingdom!"
"Would you like to accompany me to the Divine Kingdom?"
"You might even need to go with me to my hometown, Huaxia."
Jin Shuhui was startled: "Huaxia?"
"What exactly happened?"
Ye Chen hesitated no longer and handed over the jade pendant given by the Eternal Sacred King to Jin Shuhui!
When Jin Shuhui’s gaze met the jade pendant, she was completely shocked: "How is this possible... this jade pendant..."
"It seems that this jade pendant is truly yours, do you recognize the existence of the person owning this pendant?" Ye Chen said excitedly.
Jin Shuhui’s mind seemed to drift into the distant past, after a long while, she recalled: "When I first started cultivation training in the Divine Kingdom, due to my status as a guardian, I met a little girl. The little girl’s name was quite peculiar, named Fan Xin."
"Fan Xin was my only friend in the Divine Kingdom."
"Also my only confidant at that time, she loved calling me Xiao Jin, loved counting the stars in the sky with me."
"Our friendship was very deep back then."
"But after a while, I found her to be completely bizarre."
"She would disappear for no apparent reason, and appear for no apparent reason, as if she could control everything and yet seemed to know nothing."
"We agreed that every year, regardless, we would meet under the Star Tree."
"But one day, she vanished."
"I waited year after year and never saw her."
"This jade pendant was our token of friendship."
"This one is engraved with my name, and I also have one, engraved with Fan Xin."
As she spoke, Jin Shuhui took out her own pendant.
The front was identical, and as expected, the back was engraved with Fan Xin.
"Ye Chen, this jade pendant can sense each other’s presence."
"Although I don’t know why you need to find her, as long as you hold this pendant, she will feel it."
Ye Chen accepted the jade pendant, knowing his task of the Outer Realm expedition was complete.
"You’re not coming back to the Divine Kingdom with me?"
Given their deep feelings, one would expect Jin Shuhui to care more!
However, Jin Shuhui shook her head: "I cannot go with you. If you need to find her, she’ll understand upon seeing this pendant."
"As for why I can’t leave, I have my reasons."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, thought of something, and spoke: "You’re worried about the Zhan Family’s revenge?"
That’s the only reason to keep Jin Shuhui here.
After all, the Zhan Family’s threat surpasses all!
Jin Shuhui nodded: "The Peak Master of Refining God Peak is dead, now Refining God Peak is truly my home, I can’t ignore it."
"But my master and I have entrusted friends in the Upper Realm to negotiate peace, it should have results."
"I hope my worries are needless."
Ye Chen didn’t insist further, and took out a Communication Talisman: "I am heading to the Divine Kingdom now, but if the Zhan Family targets you, notify me immediately, I will come."
"If they behave, we won’t dwell on the matter."
"If they dare harm you further, I will use all my power to eradicate the Zhan Family!"
After speaking, Ye Chen took out the formation pattern left by the Eternal Sacred King!
He didn’t know when the Demon Emperor might descend on the Divine Kingdom! He must return to the Divine Kingdom quickly!
Jin Shuhui watched Ye Chen’s disappearing figure and murmured: "Let’s hope so."
...
Unknown hours later, a figure descended over the Demon Suppression Hall of the Divine Kingdom.
Ye Chen glanced around, noticing the Demon Suppression Hall was still tranquil, and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Thankfully.
Was he overthinking?
Did the Demon Emperor never descend?
"Hall Master!"
A disciple of the Demon Suppression Hall greeted respectfully.
The Hall Master had been gone for a long time, they didn’t expect his sudden appearance.
Ye Chen nodded: "How many days until the battle at Myriad Gods Mountain?"
The disciple replied respectfully: "Less than three days. During these days, phenomena keep occurring in the Divine Kingdom."
"Rumor has it that Xuanyuan Moxie has made many breakthroughs."
"Hall Master, do you really intend to intervene?"
Ye Chen nodded, although he had grown stronger outside, Xuanyuan Moxie and Mo Xue Ming were not easy foes!
He must gain insight within these three days!
He planned to go into closed cultivation again!
"These days, I will be in closed cultivation, inform me of any happenings immediately." Ye Chen instructed.
The disciple nodded: "Rest assured, Hall Master."
"But after multiple victories at Demon Suppression Hall, its reputation has soared, ordinary people dare not touch the Demon Suppression Hall, and the devils won’t dare to descend either."
"Heh heh."
Ye Chen thought no more, returned to his private chamber in the Demon Suppression Hall, preparing for closed cultivation!
...
A day later.
Seventh Divine Nation, Demon Suppressing Mountain.
Ye Chen was still in closed cultivation.
Due to the astonishing battle with the Son of Demon Emperor Mo Lingchuan, many warriors of the Demon Suppression Hall believed the devils wouldn’t come again after three failures. Some warriors even returned to their sects, erecting statues of Ye Chen, making him a hero of the Divine Kingdom and Lingwu Continent, revered by many.
However, some martial artists remained, mainly formation masters from the Seven Divine Countries, naturally staying to repair the seals between the Divine Kingdom and the Outer Realm.
According to Ye Chen, since the Demon Emperor hadn’t appeared, the apocalyptic disaster wasn’t thoroughly ended.
At this moment, several formation masters were discussing the specifics of repairing the array formation, but suddenly all the people on Demon Suppressing Mountain had changes in their expressions, looking up to the sky.
Moments ago, the sky was clear with gentle breezes, yet in the blink of an eye, it was dark with thunder and wind!
Everyone’s eyes were trembling slightly!
This scene was so familiar to them...
Just like the phenomenon before the invasion of the demon race!
