Chapter 640 - Chris' Return

"It hasn't gotten to this stage yet,"

A calm voice said, and Oliver's erupting aura dissipated completely.

Grey's pupils dilated when he heard the voice, even though it had been a long ti since he heard the voice, he was one hundred percent certain who the voice belonged to.

"Teacher…" He muttered slowly.

"Chris?" Oliver asked, staring at the figure covered by a white light.

"Good thing I ca in ti, if not, things would've been a little complicated for you," The white light faded off and Chris' figure ca into view.

It had been over a year since he disappeared, and now he was back.

When the Emperor of the Qilin Empire saw his face, he almost fell to the ground in shock.

Chris originally looked like soone who was in his mid-forties just like Oliver, but now, he looked to be in his early thirties, younger and more vibrant. Everyone could clearly feel that he was brimming with vitality.

"Who's that?" One of the twins asked when he saw the Emperor's reaction.

"It's Chris." The Emperor said, his expression grave, "He's the one I told you about,"

"I rember him," The Emperor's father said with a glint flashing through his eyes, "He was regarded as the strongest genius of his generation…"

He spoke of the few rumors he heard about Chris. Coming from a small background, Chris rose to fa when he was still in the Early stages of the Arcane Plane, defeating multiple people at the Mid stage.

His most telling battle was the one he had when he was in the Overlord Plane, but that happened a few years after the new Emperor had ascended the throne.

Chris' reputation shot to the peak, after all, Sage Plane Elentalists would rarely co out of seclusion, so Overlord Plane Elentalists were regarded as the top figures. Being able to fight against multiple opponents who were all ahead of him by a stage or two ant that he was sothing different.

In Chris' story, the only thing that still surprises people is how they never really heard of him until he got to the peak. The only ti they heard of him was when he was in the Arcane Plane, and since he was still a junior in the Arcane Plane, people didn't really take him too seriously. There were countless geniuses who had shown promise in the Arcane Plane, only to end up falling to form their elental beads, thereby staying in the Arcane Plane forever.

"Such a character exists, how co I'm only hearing of him now?" One of the twins asked coldly.

His expression was severe. From how Chris was able to stop Oliver from burning his life essence, ant that he was stronger than he was. Not only that, but the gravitational force vanished the second he appeared.

"I'm sorry, Grandfather, he had been missing for over a year now, and we thought he was dead," The Emperor bowed to ask for forgiveness.

"Hmph!" The old man snorted coldly, but he didn't reply any longer, rather, he decided to watch the show. Since he wasn't the one who was attacking Oliver, it had nothing to do with him.

"Where have you been all this while?" Oliver asked softly.

"Just moving here and there," Chris replied with a shrug before raising his hand in front of Oliver.

A white light covered Oliver, and his physical injuries started recovering at a speed visible to human eyes. It was an amazing event that left the spectators stunned.

Only a few of them have been able to witness the light elent before, and seeing it firsthand left so shaken, especially when they saw the healing ability it has.

It was generally known that the dark elent destroys, while the light elent creates. Now, everyone was seeing the reason behind that saying.

Oliver's pale face gradually regained so color, but not to the previous state. He hadn't recovered completely, but his life was no longer in any danger. The sa can't be said for his cultivation though.

Attempting to burn his life essence naturally has its side effects, even though he just activated it for nothing more than a split second, it didn't change the fact that the damage had already been done.

However, his shattered bones hadn't recovered yet.

Chris squinted his eyes as he looked at the situation of his friend. He knew things were as simple as they looked.

"Who are you?" An old voice resounded by Chris' ear, accompanied by a frightening gravitational force.

Chris raised his head to look at the speaker, he didn't even flinch, it was as if the gravitational force didn't do anything to him.

When he saw the old man, his eyes trailed around the group, stopping on Klaus' body.

He turned to look in the direction of the Blue Wind Empire, then at the Stellar Empire, and then his gaze finally stopped on Grey's body.

"Oh, kid, you've grown so much," Chris nodded his head with a smile, clearly proud of his student's improvent.

"It's thanks to your teachings, Teacher," Grey bowed respectfully.

Grey's statent might sound like an exaggeration given Chris' didn't teach him much other than arrays and inscriptions, but since learning about inscriptions and arrays, it had helped Grey in almost all aspects.

Without his inscriptions, he wouldn't have the courage to boldly charge head-on into a crowd of people. Neither would he have been able to create a teleportation array, nor the tracking or communication device.

"Haha, good student. When we're done with this, we'll have a nice long conversation," Chris laughed out loud, completely disregarding the old man from the Azure Empire.

"How insolent," The old man said coldly before pointing at Chris.

A large earthen spear ford and shot at Chris at breakneck speed. Chris stared at the spear before raising a finger, and a small flicker of fla appeared before moving to the front of the spear.

Boom!

The earthen spear was blasted into smithereens. The fla didn't stop after destroying the spear, it continued on its part, rushing towards the old man.
