Chapter 800: Leaving the Tian Yuan Continen (1/2)

As soon as she heard that Jian Chen would be leaving, Xiao Ling immediately became frantic. She said, almost in tears, “Where are you going big brother? Are you going to find master? Big brother can’t abandon Xiao Ling.” Reaching that point, Xiao Ling’s expression suddenly changed. She carefully sniffed Jian Chen and her eyes became shrouded in doubt. She said, “Weird, big brother, the smell of master on you has become much fainter. Ah, Xiao Ling knows, big brother must have been separated from master for too long, causing master’s smell to grow faint. Haha, Xiao Ling is so smart.”

‘Hmm?” Suddenly, Xiao Ling gave soft interjection of surprise. She closely observed Jian Chen as disbelief appeared in her eyes. She then pursed her lips and said, “Big brother, you’re so wasteful. You absorbed so much energy from Xiao Ling’s place. Why is there only this little left? Xiao Ling spent a long, long time gathering this energy. Big brother is too unappreciative.”

Jian Chen smiled bitterly. Back then, against the eight clans in the City of God, his terrifying strike had indeed consumed too much Chaotic Force. The originally thumb-sized amount had already shrunken to the size of a soybean. He had consumed a large portion of his Chaotic Force.

“Xiao Ling, it’s not that big brother wants to be so wasteful, but when big brother was caught up in a situation of life-or-death he had no choice but to,” Jian Chen said in apology. After all, the reason why he could achieve the Chaotic Body so quickly was all because of Xiao Ling.

Nubis and Tian Jian both stopped walking. They looked at Jian Chen, wondering just who he was conversing with. However, when they glanced over they saw Jian Chen smiling at empty space and talking to himself like an insane man.

At least Tian Jian understood. He knew that Jian Chen must be talking to the ghost-like barrier spirit. The barrier spirit was extremely peculiar; if she did not want anyone to see her, no one would be able to discover her. Even with Tian Jian’s abilities, he was currently unable to detect her.

However, Nubis did not know about this. His gaze towards Jian Chen immediately became extremely weird. It was definitely the first time such an interesting expression had appeared on his face.

“That’s fine, that’s fine, as long as big brother is safe and sound. Big brother, Xiao Ling will definitely beat up all the bastards who bully big brother. But Xiao Ling can’t help big brother power up. The seal’s been budging. Xiao Ling needs to devote all her power into maintaining the seal.”

Jian Chen smiled, “Xiao Ling, big brother doesn’t need you to help him strengthen up. Big brother will think of his own ideas.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a hand began waving in front of Jian Chen’s face. It was Nubis, currently staring at Jian Chen with an extremely weird expression. He asked worriedly, “Jian Chen, are you fine? You say Xiao Ling and then big brother, just who are you talking to? Why’re you talking to yourself there?”

Jian Chen’s current behavior caused Nubis to worry slightly. He thought, “Goddammit, Jian Chen’s currently being forced off the continent by the protector clans. His burden must be huge. Has he become insane because the burden’s too big? There’s some problems with his head.”

Jian Chen glared at Nubis before looking back at Xiao Ling, “Xiao Ling, big brother will be leaving. When big brother returns, he will definitely come and see you.”

Xiao Ling looked at Jian Chen tearfully, “Big brother, you are promising Xiao Ling that you will definitely come back to see Xiao Ling. You can’t be like master, disappearing without coming back. Only on big brother does Xiao Ling feel the presence of master. Big brother is the closest to Xiao Ling after master.”

“This is it, this is it. We still haven’t even left the continent and Jian Chen’s already become like this. Once we leave, Jian Chen’s situation will definitely worsen. What do I do?” Currently, Nubis had already confirmed his thoughts. Jian Chen had already gone mad. He was actually talking to the air. The situation was extremely bad. Even he had started worrying for Jian Chen.

After bidding farewell to Xiao Ling, Jian Chen walked towards Tian Jian. He said, “Senior, let’s go.”

Tian Jian nodded, leading Jian Chen towards the depths of the palace.

“Jian Chen, are you fine? Have you recovered?” Nubis walked in front of Jian Chen and turned around, eyeing him doubtfully. He seemed to be unable to tell if Jian Chen had really gone mad or not.

When Jian Chen saw Nubis’ grimness, he could not help but smile slightly, “There’s nothing wrong with me.”

“Then who were you talking to before?” Nubis asked weirdly.

“That was the barrier spirit of Mercenary City. You can’t see her.” Jian Chen did not hide it because he knew that the existence of the barrier spirit was not a secret.

“The barrier spirit, is that so?” Nubis suddenly came to an understanding.
