Chapter 1246: Chapter 1218: A Familiar Presence
Li Chen obviously didn’t want to do anything. Even for the sake of Elder Ji, Li Chen wouldn’t do anything to the people of Dragon Soul.
After all, although it was thanks to Zi Zhao’s tip-off last ti, Elder Ji also exerted force in the dark, which was why the people of Hongng Pavilion ca so quickly.
In this matter, Elder Ji helped him a lot. Just for this reason, Li Chen couldn’t do anything to these people.
“Forget it, since Elder Ji is in closed-door cultivation, I won’t disturb him.” Li Chen nodded, “However, when Elder Ji finishes his retreat, please convey a ssage to him for , saying that I have sothing to discuss with him.”
Seeing that Li Chen had no intention of taking action, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Li Chen’s reputation now could be considered as renowned, or rather notorious.
So famous martial artists have died at Li Chen’s hands, not just one or two.
Recently, there was even a rumor that Black and White Impermanence, who once road the Martial Artist World, also died at the hands of this seemingly very gentle young man.
Despite the dislike, although many dare to oppose Li Chen openly now, these two definitely wouldn’t be among them.
“Whew—he finally left.”
Not until Li Chen’s silhouette completely disappeared from their view did the two finally breathe a sigh of relief, then glanced at each other and directly left the Dragon Soul’s courtyard, heading toward the exclusive office of Hongng Pavilion nearby.
Li Chen wandered alone around the Kunlun Mountains.
It must be said that the arrival of so many martial artists had brought so liveliness to this ancient mountain range, which otherwise seed sowhat otherworldly.
The Kunlun Mountains mostly comprised glaciers, but there were also places covered with greenery.
Besides those martial artists whose original cultivation techniques and attributes relied heavily on coldness and shade, most gathered in those green areas.
After all, these places were much more comfortable compared to the broken and crowded tents in the valleys.
When Li Chen arrived here, he saw many martial artists finding their own spots to stay.
So were cultivating their techniques, so were honing their martial skills, and many were exchanging insights, with casual chatter being quite common.
Li Chen leisurely found a treetop to sit on, slightly closed his eyes, appearing to be resting, but his ears started to move.
Apart from so secret conversations exchanged through sound transmission, most people’s words reached Li Chen’s ears.
Most of these conversations revolved around the Martial Arts Conference, of course, the most discussed topic was still ‘Heaven’s Chosen’.
As Li Chen knew, only a few knew the true aning of Heaven’s Chosen.
However, this didn’t dampen their enthusiasm for ‘Heaven’s Chosen’.
After all, those were things related to the Heavenly Level!
In the Martial Artist World, anything that even slightly touched upon the Heavenly Level could make countless martial artists fight fiercely over it.
However, Li Chen listened for a long ti, yet no one was clear about what exactly ‘Heaven’s Chosen’ was.
Perhaps soone knew, but used True Qi sound transmission which even Li Chen couldn’t eavesdrop on.
Therefore, even Li Chen couldn’t gather any useful information here.
After sitting for a while longer and realizing there was still no valuable information, Li Chen leapt down from the tree and prepared to turn and leave.
“But it’s quite interesting, I used to think from those martial arts novels that righteous and demonic paths could never coexist, turns out it was all bluff.” Earlier Li Chen noticed several martial artists, obviously with Demonic Path Martial Artist markings, chatting happily with others.
Moreover, it looked like these people were old acquaintances.
Now, he increasingly understood the importance of interests. Driven by interests, there were no permanent enemies.
But to him, there were so enemies he neither wanted nor cared to win over with interests.
Relatively speaking, he still preferred the feeling of conquering enemies with his fists.
“Speaking of Demonic Path Martial Artists…” Li Chen suddenly rembered a person, who should also have arrived at the Kunlun Mountains. Li Chen felt that perhaps it was ti to et with him.
As he walked, a figure just happened to approach head-on.
Li Chen looked up, frowning slightly, sensing the evil aura emanating from the other party, which was also characteristic of a Demonic Path Martial Artist; yet Li Chen faintly felt that this person was even more ‘demonic’ than typical Demonic Path Martial Artists.
Of course, this was just a feeling. As for who the other party was, he didn’t care to know. As long as the other party didn’t provoke him, he wasn’t interested in paying attention.
The two brushed past each other, and after Li Chen walked far, the Demonic Path Martial Artist inexplicably turned his head, looking in the direction Li Chen left, his eyes filled with thought.
“This man’s aura, it’s sowhat familiar…”
anwhile, Li Chen, who had already walked far away, also frowned slightly.
He always felt sothing was off, because similar to that Demonic Path Martial Artist, he also felt the aura on the other seed familiar, as if he had encountered it sowhere before.
However, unlike the other, what puzzled Li Chen was that he didn’t think of it before, until now did he realize that the other party’s aura seed to have another unfamiliar yet familiar scent.
This aura baffled Li Chen after much consideration, unable to find its source, intending to ask the Demonic Path Martial Artist, he found the other had already vanished. Shaking his head, he stopped pondering over this person, stepping toward another direction.
The valley’s loose cultivator gathering area also had a place for him, with quite a few people there. Li Chen planned to go there first to gather so information.
…
“Eee—yah—”
The courtyard room door slowly opened, and staying here was surprisingly the sa Demonic Path Martial Artist who earlier brushed past Li Chen, soone who also had a sect’s base.
At this mont, another person was present in the room.
It was a woman who seed to be cultivating at this very mont.
Around her, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged madly into her body at a terrifying speed, yet the woman’s expression remained calm, as if she didn’t fear being overwheld by this imnse spiritual energy.
Hearing the noise from the door, the woman slightly opened her eyes.
Upon seeing the Demonic Path Martial Artist, a sharp glint flickered in the woman’s eyes, and the absorption abruptly halted.
Before her, a dagger made of condensed True Qi suddenly ford and shot toward the Demonic Path Martial Artist.
“Crack!”
The dagger instantly arrived before the Demonic Path Martial Artist, only to be easily pinched by two of his fingers; with a slight exertion, the dagger turned into scattered starlight, dissipating into the air.
“With your current strength, you’re still a bit lacking in killing ; wait until you cultivate to Earth Level,” the Demonic Path Martial Artist chuckled lightly, “However, I doubt you have that potential.”
“You wait!” The woman’s eyes were filled with hatred, so intense it nearly materialized. She then closed her eyes, ignoring him, resuming her absorption of heaven and earth’s spiritual energy.
The Demonic Path Martial Artist turned his head, a mischievous smile curling his lips, turned around, and left the room.
“When you cultivate to Earth Level, that’s when I’ll harvest!”
If Li Chen were here, he would undoubtedly recognize this woman madly cultivating.
Her na is Yang Xin.
