Chapter 588

“Big sister, what do you think? Is Long Chen one of those legendary…”

Once they had returned to the Immortal Intoxication Pavilion, Yu Tong and Zi Yan were staring at the scenery outside the window . It was Yu Tong who was asking Zi Yan .

“Yu Tong, don’t say it!” shouted Zi Yan .

“Sister…”

“You can’t say that word . Our cultivation is different from other people’s . We are close to the Heavenly Daos, and we are also easily sensed by the Heavenly Daos . If you say it and it’s true, you’ll immediately receive a backlash from the Heavenly Daos and be wiped out of existence!” said Zi Yan solemnly .

“So you also suspect it?” asked Yu Tong .

Zi Yan sighed . She pulled off her veil . Her expression was very complicated .

“If he’s not that legendary existence, how could he have such combat abilities? How could he resist the will of the Heavenly Daos?

“Most terrifying of all, he was even able to make heavenly tribulation lightning submit to him . If he wasn’t that kind of existence, how could he dare insult the Heavenly Daos?

“If he is that existence, then he isn’t my devil star . Such people will bring about unmatched heavenly tribulations each time they advance .

“Furthermore, as his cultivation base advances, the more intense the tribulation will be, all the way until he is exterminated beneath the Heavenly Daos . ”

The two of them sank into silence for a while before Yu Tong sighed, “That really is regretful . Long Chen is unafraid of heaven or earth, someone who cares deeply about relations.h.i.+ps . Although his Dao is contrary to our Dao, he still is admirable!”

Zi Yan felt a complicated feeling . At the beginning, she had thought Long Chen was her devil star and would affect her entire life . So she had started paying more attention to him .

After learning of his background, she had felt that Long Chen had received too much torment as a child, which had led to his heart becoming embittered . She had hoped that she could guide him onto the correct path . Then she wouldn’t need to kill him .

But now she was sure Long Chen was that legendary existence . He was fated to die beneath heavenly tribulation . He had nothing to do with her anymore .

That kind of result didn’t make her relax . Instead, it made her a bit disappointed . She felt it was too much for the heavens to treat such a person like this . Long Chen had suffered so much as a child . He had finally soared, but it was destined for him to die to the Heavenly Daos . That was too pitiless .

“Don’t overthink it . Counting the days, our training experience this time is about over, and we’ll be returning to the Immortal Palace soon . We’ll have nothing to do with this secular world,” comforted Zi Yan .

Although she said this to comfort Yu Tong, she was also comforting herself . Just like Long Chen had said, the two of them were in different worlds .

…

Long Chen returned Little Snow back to his spiritual s.p.a.ce . Although this revealed that he was a dabbler Beast Tamer, it was better than leaving Little Snow outside .

Little Snow’s aura was extremely berserk and chaotic . It was different from any other Magical Beast’s, which made it too conspicuous .

Little Snow’s mutation shocked Long Chen . Although Little Snow was only at the late fifth rank, equivalent to the human race’s Meridian Opening realm, he was strong enough to easily kill any Xiantian experts . That kind of strength had broken the rules of the cultivation world, so Long Chen preferred to keep Little Snow’s strength as hidden as possible .

After returning to Mo Gate, Long Chen and Mu Xue were pleasantly surprised to see that other than Zhang Wu, nine other members of the Muxue Mercenary Unit had gathered here .

Because the ambush had been too chaotic back then, and everyone had known staying was just sending themselves to their deaths, they had all rushed to report the news to Long Chen .

Furthermore, their opponents’ target had been Mu Xue . That had allowed the others to escape with their lives .

The two women were amongst the surviving members . When explaining what had happened, the two of them burst into tears .

They were the ones who had been focused the most at the beginning . But as a result, several of their brothers had protected them with their lives, buying precious time for them to escape .

Now that they were gathered again, they couldn’t help sobbing . The people who had died were their family, the people they had been closest with throughout these years . Those kinds of feelings were something outsiders were unable to understand .

Even Mo Yunshan and the others were moved by their plight . Although they were just mercenaries who lived on the bottom levels of the cultivation world, their emotions were the most sincere .

Within this sinister world filled with schemes and strife, such pure emotions were too rare . After they cried for a while, Mu Xue told them about how Long Chen had killed the experts of the three great powers and fought Yin Wushang .

Hearing the three great powers’ masters and Yin Wushang had been killed, their hatred lessened slightly . There were few cultivators who ever managed to get a good ending . With the revenge Long Chen had gotten for them, they trusted that their fallen brothers would be comforted within the springs below .

While they were talking, a group of experts from the Mo family walked over . Their bodies were covered in blood, giving Mu Xue and the others a fright .

Long Chen recognized the leader of that group as it was Mo Nian’s uncle . He asked, “Did you go plundering?”

“Hahaha!” Mo Nian’s uncle laughed . “Brat, you really have some smarts . You got it right in one guess . Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see your battle with Yin Wushang, or you definitely would have heard my cheering!”
