Chapter 1054: Chapter 1052 Very Familiar (1 more)

“Su Chen, do you really want to pursue this to the bitter end?” Hongying was fully aware now that she had underestimated Su Chen. No, not just underestimated—she had grossly underestimated him. Even after deploying several Supre Treasures, she had still failed to kill him. What did this an? It ant Su Chen possessed the power to obliterate her.

Her greatest hope for survival had been to escape into the Void. She only needed five breaths. Yes, just five breaths—that would be enough for her to conceal herself anywhere within the boundless Void. Even if Su Chen followed her in, he wouldn’t be able to locate her. After all, the Void was unimaginably vast.

But she hadn’t expected that the three followers who ca with her to the Divine Martial Continent would fail to hold off Su Chen for even five breaths. Their incompetence was beyond imagination—it was absurd.

Now, she was trapped in a dire situation—a mortal impasse.

“What do you think?” Su Chen didn’t rush; he steadily closed the distance between them, one step at a ti.

“Su Chen, behind stands the Di Family. I am nothing more than an insignificant ant, or perhaps not even worthy of being called an ant. Killing serves no purpose. From the mont you discovered the secret of the Moon Spirit Stone, your fate was sealed,” Hongying’s voice turned sharp, tinged with mocking indignation and fury. “You’ll die without a doubt! The Di Family possesses a Mother River—their might is beyond what you could possibly fathom!”

“The Di Family? A Mother River?” Su Chen squinted slightly, imprinting these words deep within his mind. The reason he hadn’t imdiately finished off Hongying was precisely for this mont—to extract useful information from her.

“Is the Mother River truly so powerful?” he asked, raising his head to fix his gaze on Hongying.

“Hahaha… HAHAHA… HAHAHAHAHA!” Hongying froze for a mont, then burst into laughter, tears nearly streaming from her eyes. “An ant is an ant. Always in the dark, always confined to the pathetic little sky above its well.”

Su Chen still didn’t fully understand—Hongying’s words sounded like the Heavenly Book to him. However, Jiuyou’s voice abruptly grew solemn: “Mother River? Is that even possible? In the entire Grand Cosmos World, there are only around ten Mother Rivers at most.”

“Jiuyou, what is a Mother River?”

“Simply put, a Mother River is a Spirit Vein. However, the qi flowing within a Mother River isn’t ordinary Spiritual Energy. It’s Origin Spiritual Qi. Origin Spiritual Qi can be thought of as Innate Qi, also known as Chaos Spiritual Qi. Innate Qi has the terrifying power to nurture entities of imnse potency—Ancestral Dragons, Emperor Dragons, Void Dragons, Divine Phoenixes, Vermilion Birds, and even the Divine Demon Clan. In simpler terms, a Mother River can birth the primordial ancestors of every race, the progenitors of existence.”

Su Chen’s breath hitched slightly. Despite having been ntally prepared, he was still thoroughly shocked.

A Mother River was overwhelmingly formidable!

The ability to nurture progenitors and ancestors… This was sothing the Divine Martial Continent could not achieve, nor could the Primordial Continent. In fact, even among the countless Planes within the Grand Cosmos World, ninety-nine percent were incapable of such a feat.

“Jiuyou, is this woman speaking truthfully? If Mother Rivers are so terrifying, how could one possibly end up on the Primordial Continent?”

“The chances of her being truthful are quite high. Otherwise, she would have no reason to know about Mother Rivers. As for why a Mother River would appear on the Divine Martial Continent, it’s not impossible. Mother Rivers are entities closely monitored by countless Supre Experts throughout the Grand Cosmos World. Absorbing a Mother River can grant unmatched power. With their own spiritual sense and consciousness, Mother Rivers inherently know how to hide and evade danger. Escaping to the Primordial Continent to conceal themselves is a plausible strategy—after all, the Primordial Continent is rely a Plane of the Minor Thousand Worlds, low-profile enough to avoid attracting the attention of Supre Experts in the Grand Cosmos.”

“Su Chen, are you afraid? If you are, the only solution is to end your life now! Yes, suicide is your only path forward. At least with suicide, your death will be painless, unlike what awaits you—anguish beyond imagination. If you kill now, even wishing for a swift suicide will beco a luxury.” Seeing Su Chen remain silent, his expression dark and uncertain, Hongying’s desperation began transforming into excitent. She thought she glimpsed a sliver of hope.

“The Di Family, originating from the Primordial Continent, yet possessing a Mother River… Interesting,” Su Chen sneered. “Tell , woman, if this secret were to spread, wouldn’t the Di Family face catastrophic ruin?”

Hongying’s face contorted once again.

“It seems I guessed right. Now let guess further. The Mother River must’ve fled from the Grand Cosmos World, seeking refuge in so unsuspecting minor Plane. It happened to co across the Primordial Continent and was accidentally discovered by soone in the Di Family—perhaps one of their ancestors. Likely, they struck so sort of bargain. Since then, the Mother River has been aiding the Di Family in their developnt, while the Di Family helps the Mother River remain in hiding,” Su Chen mused slowly. “The Di Family really struck gold. With the Mother River’s support, they could easily rise to dominate the Primordial Continent in no ti.”

Hongying was gripped with terror—her body felt ice-cold!

She was petrified.

Truthfully, the mont she had let slip the existence of the Mother River in her mont of desperation, she had imdiately regretted it.

As Su Chen had pointed out, if the Mother River’s existence were exposed, it would spell an apocalyptic calamity for the Di Family.

For all their power, the Di Family could not possibly contend with the terrifying entities or peerless experts of the Grand Cosmos World.

Her hope had initially hinged on Su Chen’s ignorance regarding the Mother River. After all, nearly ninety-nine point nine percent of Martial Cultivators on the Primordial Continent didn’t even know of its existence. How much less likely was it for Su Chen, a boy who hadn’t even visited the Primordial Continent, to find out?

But reality proved otherwise—Su Chen not only knew but seed to know exceedingly well.

“From the look on your face, I know I guessed right. So…” Su Chen’s eyes narrowed, radiating nace. “So, if I ever get the chance, I’ll make sure this news spreads far and wide. Yes! I’ll send word to the Grand Cosmos World!”

Respect an inch, I’ll respect you a yard.

Threaten my life,

And I’ll take yours.

The Di Family.

Su Chen wouldn’t forget.

“Su Chen, don’t delude yourself! You think you’ll live long enough to spread any news? Haha… The Grand Cosmos World isn’t sowhere you can just go on a whim,” Hongying scoffed, her tone growing icier as she regained her composure.

“Whether it’s wishful thinking or not, you won’t be around to see that day,” Su Chen said with a sly smile, now standing inches away from Hongying.

In that precise second—

Hongying smiled as well.

Her previous tension, fear, and panic vanished completely.

They were replaced by triumph, relief, and murderous intent.

“Su Chen!!! You think you gained by hearing all that I revealed?” Hongying blinked, her eyes sparkling with malicious glee.

“Was it all just to buy so ti?” Su Chen wasn’t surprised.

At that exact mont—

Beside Hongying appeared an elderly man.

A white-haired, slightly stooped old man.

His hands were bare, his gaze foggy.

Standing there, he seed no different from an ordinary person.

And yet, Su Chen felt an oppressive weight press on his mind—a chilling gravity.

This sudden old man? Dangerous!

Extrely dangerous!

“What’s his Realm?” Su Chen ntally communicated with Jiuyou.

“Seventh Layer of the Eternal Dominion Realm,” Jiuyou responded, equally alard.

“Miss Hongying,” the old man first addressed Hongying.

“Su Chen, do you know who he is?” Hongying raised her brow with a self-satisfied smirk. “He is the Plane Manager of the Divine Martial Continent.”

Su Chen’s eyes narrowed.

Plane Manager.

The title was familiar.

This wasn’t his first encounter with a Plane Manager.

He had once confronted the Plane Manager of Earth.

Every Plane had its own Manager—this was common knowledge.

What Su Chen hadn’t anticipated was the Plane Manager of the Divine Martial Continent showing up in such circumstances.
