Chapter 745 Yaoyao Sealed Away (2/2)

Upon seeing his approach, complicated expressions emerged in the eyes of sect master Qing Yang, the Hongya Peak master, old man Bai Mei and peak master Ling Jun. After all, Zhou Yuan had played an extremely important role in today’s earth-shaking battle.

Let alone how patriarch Cang Xuan had used his body, Yaoyao and the mysterious elder in black seemed to have special relations.h.i.+ps with Zhou Yuan.

To think that Zhou Yuan was merely a Divine Dwelling stage pract.i.tioner.

Normally speaking, someone with such strength had no place in a heaven-shocking battle like this that affected the entire Cangxuan Heaven. And yet, Zhou Yuan had indeed partic.i.p.ated and had even played an unignorable role.

Hence, they could no longer view him as an ordinary disciple.

“Zhou Yuan, if not for you, today’s battle would have been a disaster for our Cangxuan Sect.” Sect master Qing Yang sighed deeply.

“Sect master thinks too highly of me.” Zhou Yuan smiled bitterly. “Sect master, I will be leaving Cangxuan Heaven for some time, I hope that the Cangxuan Sect can take care of my father and mother.”

He had ruined Sheng Yuan’s plans, creating an irreconcilable grudge between himself and the Sacred Palace. He was unafraid of them. His only worry was that the Sacred Palace would take revenge on his parents.

The Great Zhou Empire was after all far too tiny in the face of the enormous ent.i.ty that was the Sacred Palace.

Sect master Qing Yang solemnly replied, “Don’t worry, you’re still a disciple of the Cangxuan Sect, and if not for your act of scattering the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, Sheng Yuan would have likely obtained it. You’ve done the Cangxuan Sect a huge favor.

“After you leave, I will dispatch an expert to guard the Great Zhou Empire, and I will personally take action if a situation arises. As long as the Cangxuan Sect stands, no one will be able to hurt your parents.”

Zhou Yuan’s expression relaxed a little. Sect master Qing Yang had given him a very serious promise. With sect master Qing Yang’s protection, anyone would have to think thrice before attempting to do anything to his parents.

As for the Sacred Palace, even if Sheng Yuan hated Zhou Yuan to the core, he was currently gravely injured and would most likely be focused on searching for the Cangxuan Saint Stamp fragments when he recovered.

For the next few years, a storm of blood would surely engulf Cangxuan Heaven due to these Saint Stamp shards. Even the six overlord sects would be drawn in, and no one would be able to stop it.

However, it was precisely this chaos that would make it very difficult for the Sacred Palace to focus on dealing with the Cangxuan Sect. As long as the Cangxuan Sect was stable, there would naturally be no one who dared to touch his parents.

He did not know when he would return this time.

However, he believed that when he returned to Cangxuan Heaven, he would no longer be as weak as he was today. When that time came, he would properly settle all his grudges.

Endless frost churned in Zhou Yuan’s eyes as he looked towards the direction Sheng Yuan had escaped in.

Sheng Yuan and the sacred race were the biggest culprits behind Yaoyao’s injuries. Though he currently did not possess the qualifications to settle these debts, when he gained enough strength in the future, he would make sure to repay them in full.

Zhou Yuan bowed deeply towards sect master Qing Yang.

“Thank you sect master!

“I’ll be leaving my parents in your hands!”

As his voice rang out, he looked towards Old Xuan and solemnly bowed to him. He then turned around without any hesitation and returned to Cang Yuan’s side.

The various experts that were still present were currently focused on them.

Cang Yuan ignored these gazes as he waved his sleeve. The s.p.a.ce before him slowly tore open, creating a dark spatial pa.s.sage that could lead to anywhere.

“Let’s go.”

Cang Yuan lifted the crystal coffin and stepped into the spatial pa.s.sage.

Zhou Yuan followed. He turned around for one final glance at Cangxuan Heaven before quickly turning back and entering the spatial pa.s.sage.

The spatial pa.s.sage swirled as it devoured their figures.

As they watched Cang Yuan leave, the many experts breathed a sigh of relief.

Cang Yuan was far too powerful and was akin to a giant dragon. If he chose to stay, it would change the entire landscape of Cangxuan Heaven.

Sect master Qing Yang stared at the spot where Zhou Yuan had disappeared. A long time later, he slowly said, “I have a feeling that none of us will be able to look down on him when he returns to Cangxuan Heaven.

“Hehe, I’m very curious to find out how far he will have grown when he returns…”

After speaking, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the land devastated by the earlier battle. He released a long, drawn-out breath.

The astonis.h.i.+ng battle that decided the future of Cangxuan Heaven was finally over.

However, sect master Qing Yang knew that it was not over. Due to the scattered fragments of the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, Cangxuan Heaven would likely welcome an unprecedented period of chaos.

This was not bad news for the Cangxuan Sect and the other overlord sects. At the very least, Sheng Yuan’s ambitions had been stopped for the time being.

Before this, no one would have ever imagined that this great chaotic battle would start and end at the hands of a young Divine Dwelling stage pract.i.tioner.

News of today’s battle would most definitely spread, and Zhou Yuan’s name would soon become known by everyone in Cangxuan Heaven.
