Chapter 767: Chapter 470 Opportunity, Holy Pond!
“Hmm… I’m leaving.”
Chen Yuan said to her with a smile.
“Okay, shall we et again in the future?” Shangguan Hong said with a solemn bow.
“Yes, see you in the future.”
Chen Yuan nodded, then his figure streaked past like a phantom and disappeared into the dense forest.
Watching the direction in which Chen Yuan had disappeared, Shangguan Hong’s face revealed a hint of a smile. She remained standing in place for a mont until a powerful individual from the Shangguan Family arrived and then she regained her composure.
…
…
After parting from Shangguan Hong, Chen Yuan suddenly hastened his pace. He arrived within the boundaries of Jiangdu Prefecture before it got dark and found an inn in a county town to stay in.
After careful consideration, he decided to seize this opportunity first and then look for the person who had shielded his fate, unsure whether it was a parent or an uncle…
Actually, the closer he got, the more inexplicable nervousness he felt in his heart. This feeling was elusive, but it was indeed always there.
Nevertheless, he chose to face it calmly.
Of course, he had no other choice, for it pertained to his cultivation. If he did not face it, it would eventually beco his inner demon, thus affecting his cultivation progress.
The cultivation in Reach Profound’s Heavenly Palace required one to comprehend the intent in one’s heart, while Core Realm’s Heavenly Core cultivation required understanding the intent of heaven and earth—this stemd from a strong heart dedicated to martial arts.
If he had an opportunity and did not face it, fearing that he might make enemies, it would have a major impact on his fearless martial heart.
Otherwise, did he genuinely seek trouble for himself?
He was soone who least liked trouble. If not so, why would he specifically make a trip to Shuzhou?
After resting for a night in the county town, Chen Yuan resud his journey the next day. The rest was quite straightforward because the Prefecture City wasn’t far away.
It took him less than an hour to enter the city.
Based on his careful observations, there were indeed many martial artists who had co to participate in the triennial grand ritual. Although those he saw were not of high cultivation, this also demonstrated Tang Sect’s influence.
It really deserved its na among the strongest first-rate forces beneath the top powers.
After strolling around and confirming a few things, Chen Yuan left the city again and went to the famous Dujiangyan, which was indeed spectacular.
He couldn’t help but admire the thods of the forr wise man of Chu, who managed to transform a devastating water that ravaged the people into a blessing for the citizens of Jiangdu Prefecture. With this diversion in place, it could indeed irrigate thousands of acres of fertile land.
He had heard that there had been a drought in Central Shu, but it seed that it did not affect this place much.
There were quite a few people observing Dujiangyan, and Chen Yuan was just one of them. After watching for a long ti, just as he was about to leave, suddenly a few figures flew through the air from afar.
Chen Yuan took a closer look and raised his eyebrows slightly—it was Shangguan Yu.
The latter seed to have noticed him too and headed straight toward him, eventually stopping about ten yards in front of him and asked sowhat uncertainly with a bow:
“Could it be… Brother Chen?”
Although he had confird with Shangguan Hong the day before that Chen Yuan had changed his appearance, he was still sowhat unsure at this mont and could only inquire first.
Chen Yuan let out a sigh. He had intended to keep his identity hidden, but in the end, he was still recognized by Shangguan Yu, his ‘good brother’, and thus he simply nodded and returned the bow:
“Brother Shangguan, long ti no see.”
“It really is Brother Chen!”
Shangguan Yu’s face lit up instantly.
“Brother Shangguan, aren’t you going to introduce us?”
A few n beside him spoke up.
Shangguan Yu hesitated upon hearing these words because he rembered what Shangguan Hong had said before—Chen Yuan did not want to expose his identity, and he had just blurted it out, unable to hold back.
Thinking that he had already safely arrived at Jiangdu Prefecture with his injuries healed and would inevitably take action the next day, with no way to hide his identity any longer, Chen Yuan did not continue to hide. He tore off the human skin mask on his face and said with a light laugh:
“I am Chen Yuan from Qingzhou, pleased to et you, fellow Daoists.”
Actually, hiding his identity was only a preliminary asure. If any powerful figures wanted to investigate, starting from his departure from the Capital, it wouldn’t be difficult to find out.
He had t quite a few people in Tangshan, and even though he had imposed a gag order, it was estimated that news would still leak out.
However, with the support of Elder Moluo, even if a True Monarch ca after him, he was confident in surviving, at worst, he would just need to recuperate for a while.
Moreover, even if disguised, these people might still recognize his human skin mask. After weighing his options, he felt there was not much need to continue hiding.
“Could it be Demon Sword Chen Yuan?”
The few people were taken aback, asking with a grave expression.
“Indeed.”
Seeing Chen Yuan’s firm response, the faces of the few people showed varying degrees of gravity.
“It turns out to be Brother Chen in person, my apologies.”
“We’ve long heard that Brother Shangguan and Brother Chen are close friends. Today we are fortunate to see Brother Chen’s true face thanks to Brother Shangguan.”
The few people were very courteous, showing no disrespect.
Because Chen Yuan was not an ordinary court official.
If it were just a slightly famous court official, they wouldn’t be willing to associate, as Jianghu and the court were inherently opposed. But Chen Yuan was different,
not only was he the top ranker of the previous Hidden Dragon List, but he had also defended the honor of the Central Plains Martial Artists in the Capital by foiling the sches of the Japanese. This earned him their respect.
“May I know the nas of you fellow Daoists?”
As the others were polite, Chen Yuan naturally did not behave rudely.
“I am Song Kuangdao, Sect Leader of Mad Saber Sect!”
“I am Cao Xiu, Sect Master of the Chaos Sword Sect!”
“I am…”
The n introduced themselves one after another. The last one, a young man carrying a long bow, did not rush to speak, but Chen Yuan did not underestimate him at all.
Among these people, including Shangguan Yu, the only one who made him feel slightly dangerous was this young man.
Shangguan Yu exchanged a glance with him and introduced:
“Brother Chen, this is the current Clan Leader of the Liu Family from Shuzhou, Liu Zhenzong.”
“Could it be the Liu Zhenzong who ranks thirty-second on the Fengyun List, Four Symbols Divine Arrow?” Chen Yuan’s face showed a hint of gravity.
“Indeed!”
