Chapter 2526: The Seven Imprints (1/2)

Since Yun Xiaoyan was now with Ming Dong, Jian Chen naturally did not try to settle what happened back in the Neptunean Divine Palace.

Very soon, they ate and drank to their satisfaction. Jian Chen also parted with his close friends and returned to his residence.

The Tian Yuan clan had been expanded many times while he was gone. During the expansions, he was obviously given the best area in the clan as the patriarch, and the largest residence was constructed for him.

The residence seemed just like a palace. It was majestic and grand on the outside, giving off an invisible pressure, and its interior was luxuriously decorated. There were many precious items and priceless jades used for decor, as well as extraordinary flowers and herbs. They gave off a faint fragrance that could clear the minds of people with a single whiff.

All the flowers and herbs were actually renowned plants. They had all reached God Tier, making them extremely valuable.

Yet, they were only enough to be used as decoration.

Jian Chen shook his head. He was rather speechless as he looked at his residence that was even more luxurious than an emperor’s palace. He could not even imagine something like this when he left the Cloud Plane several decades ago.

“Jian Chen!” At this moment, Qing Yixuan’s voice rang out from outside the residence.

Jian Chen glanced at the entrance before waving his hand, and the door opened automatically. Qing Yixuan walked in slowly from outside, giving off a righteous spirit.

When she saw the white-robed Jian Chen with his hair down, a mixed light flashed through her eyes.

“Qing Yixuan, you’ve come looking for me so late. It should be something important, right?” Jian Chen looked at Qing Yixuan calmly.

Qing Yixuan looked at Jian Chen. She did not reply immediately. Instead, she said gently after a moment of silence, “Jian Chen, do you still remember that place where I obtained swordmaster Yun Chi’s legacy underground?”

Jian Chen nodded. “Of course, I remember. Are there any problems?”

Qing Yixuan looked at Jian Chen with some worry and said, “The golden core of laws I obtained from swordmaster Yun Chi hid a message. The message was extremely well-hidden, deep within the golden core of laws. I only absorbed this information several months ago when my comprehension of the Way of the Sword progressed to a certain level.”

“It’s about the seven other peak experts who suffered with swordmaster Yun Chi. Swordmaster Yun Chi seems to worry about them quite a lot, and he even wants me to tell you that you should be careful of the seven of them if you are still fine.”

With that, Jian Chen sank into his thoughts.

Qing Yixuan was worried. She continued, “The seven peak experts passed away many years ago. Although I don’t know why swordmaster Yun Chi is worried about them or why he wants me to warn you, but they’re all terrifying figures of exceptional ability for being able to reach such a level of cultivation. I fear that they might have prepared something and plan on doing something detrimental to you.”

“I understand. Thank you for your warning, Qing Yixuan,” Jian Chen smiled faintly, as if it was nothing for him to worry about.

Qing Yixuan immediately became slightly frustrated by Jian Chen’s attitude. At the same time, she became rather worried inside. She said, “Jian Chen, don’t you believe what I said?”

“No, I believe you. Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. Everything is within my control,” Jian Chen said with composure. He was not worried at all.

After Qing Yixuan left, Jian Chen thought over some things in the hall of the residence before making his way over to a secret room for secluded cultivation. He sat down on a jade bed.
