Chapter 2300: Death of a Primordial Realm Exper (2/2)
Elder He Tian of the Radiant Saint Hall had died!
After elder He Tian’s death, the senses of Jian Chen’s soul receded into the distance like water, vanishing in a single instance.
However, Qing Shan looked around after killing elder He Tian. His eyes shone with a chilling light as he murmured, “Who is this person? The senses of his soul are slightly different from other people. If he purposefully hides it, even I can’t locate him.”
“But from the strength of the senses of his soul, he’s probably equal to the elder of the Radiant Saint Hall. It’s fine if he’s not a part of the Radiant Saint Hall, but I can’t show any mercy if he is.”
Jian Chen slowly opened his eyes as he sat on a tree ten million kilometres away from where elder He Tian had died. He stared right ahead sternly.
He had witnessed Qing Shan’s strength. His strength was far greater than what Shui Yunlan displayed in the Neptunean Divine Palace. He was no weaker than Jian Chen himself.
With elder He Tian’s death, the Hallowed Saint Masters in the World of Moon and Star had completely lost the power to fight against Qing Shan.
Naturally, Jian Chen had heard elder He Tian’s pleas prior to the latter’s death. He did want to help out, but there was nothing he could do from ten million kilometres away.
Even if he really could assist him somehow, he needed to consider whether his identity would be exposed.
Otherwise, it would become a stupid decision of dooming oneself.
“Aren’t you scared at all?” At this moment, Donglin Yanxue’s voice rang out from behind Jian Chen. She had also leapt onto the tree and stood on a branch gently while she looked at Jian Chen’s figure with rather mixed feelings.
At that moment, to Donglin Yanxue’s surprise, Jian Chen’s back seemed particularly straight and tall.
She felt like he could hold up the sky.
But afterwards, Donglin Yanxue secret shook her head and discarded the hilarious and immature thought. She became embarrassed by her own thinking.
After all, the person seated before her was just a weak Radiant Saint Master whose cultivation was not even as great as hers.
“What’s the use of being afraid? I’ve faced plenty of much more despairing situations in the past. In my eyes, the danger you face right now is nothing,” Jian Chen said calmly. He sat still on the tree as he looked ahead.
Donglin Yanxue clearly became slightly surprised when she saw Jian Chen demonstrate a level of composure that even the eight Radiant Godkings lacked. She could not help but study Jian Chen properly.
At that moment, she suddenly discovered that she seemed to have failed to see through Jian Chen completely.
However, as soon as she thought of Jian Chen’s intentions of getting close to her, she became extremely repulsed.
“Chang Yang, do you regret becoming my ninth protector very much now that we’re in danger?” Donglin Yanxue asked. She spoke very softly, very indifferently, and slightly coldly.
“I don’t regret it because I want to enter the Tower of Radiance. Becoming a retainer of the five candidates is the only choice,” said Jian Chen. He spoke very calmly, without any emotion at all.
Donglin Yanxue frowned. Just when she wanted to ask him why he had gone so far when he could have just asked the vice-leader to enter the Tower of Radiance with his medallion, Jian Chen glanced at the eight Radiant Godkings and said, “They’ve finished discussing. Let’s head over and see what they’ve decided on.”
With that, Jian Chen drifted off the tree slowly and made his way over to the eight protectors. Donglin Yanxue could only swallow what she wanted to ask earlier.
