Chapter 2976: Revenge

Jian Chen left the ice cavern. He stood on the icy-cold tundra outside and raised his head to look at the starry sky. He could clearly see numerous figures hovered above the Ice Pole Plane, where every single one of them was extremely powerful.

He Qianchi and Yun Wufeng emerged from the cavern as well, standing beside Jian Chen.

“One person’s breakthrough has led to such a great uproar. It really is a sovereign of the world after all.” Yun Wufeng sighed.

He Qianchi sighed as well, “The Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven is a renowned existence in the Saints’ World. He has already remained at the Ninth Heavenly Layer for ten million years. He is one of the supreme experts who has paused at the Ninth Heavenly Layer for the longest. The Overarching Heaven Plane was not originally called the Overarching Heaven Plane. Its name was changed to that after the Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven made a name for himself in the Saints’ World.”

“But now, the Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven has already pulled ahead of all the other experts and reached the domain of sovereigns first. From now onwards, we should refer to him as the Grand Exalt of Overarching Heaven,” He Qianchi was filled with respect as he said that, bowing deeply in the direction of the Overarching Heaven Plane.

“Another sovereign-level organisation has been created.” The many Grand Primes hovering outside the Ice Pole Plane linked up with the senses of their souls and conversed.

“Although the Overarching Heaven clan had the Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven, they still paled slightly in comparison to the archaean clans in the past. He has done it now. The Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven has directly become a sovereign of the world, so the Overarching Heaven clan’s status has immediately surpassed archaean clans. I just wonder how the eight Saint Monarchs of the archaean clans feel right now.”

“I originally thought the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng would be the first expert to become an embodiment of the heavenly ways in the recent several million years, but who would have thought it would actually be the Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven.”

“You can’t say that. The first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng’s battle prowess is indeed unmatched. She first hunted down the Flame Reverend before hunting down the Heaven-splitting Ancestor. Probably only the eight Saint Monarchs of the archaean clans stand a chance against her. However, ascending to the position of a sovereign is not as simple as looking at battle prowess. It depends on great luck and fortune.”

“That’s correct. Everyone who can reach the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Grand Prime possesses deviant-like talent and unrivalled aptitude, but becoming a sovereign does not just depend on talent. It depends on their fate too.”

“The birth of a new Grand Exalt has probably made many supreme experts stuck at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Grand Prime feel pained.”

“Sigh, let’s just go back and focus on preparing a gift. The birth of a new Grand Exalt leads to another congratulatory celebration of all the races and clans.”

The pulse of ways that the Sacred Lord of Overarching Heaven had created after stepping into the realm of Grand Exalt and giving the Saints’ World another sovereign settled down very quickly. The boundless space of the Saints’ World recovered its original peace.

However, news of the birth of the new Grand Exalt had already spread across the entire Saints’ World. Many peak experts were utterly astounded.

Jian Chen, Yun Wufeng, and He Qianchi had already calmed down from the upheaving emotions they experienced earlier. Whether the Saints’ World gained a Grand Exalt or lost a Grand Exalt was not something they should be concerned about, as it was simply irrelevant to them.

Very soon, He Qianchi bade farewell to Jian Chen and returned to the Heavenly Crane clan. However, when he left, he seemed to have held a conversation with Yun Wufeng, which immediately made him a little sterner.

Afterwards, Jian Chen returned to the cavern and began ingesting the God Tier pills He Qianchi had brought to recover the power of his soul. Yun Wufeng remained right beside him, watching over Jian Chen’s safety. He remained in a state of high alert, just in case the great elders of the Moon God Hall suddenly appeared.

Time passed by silently. Through ingesting the pills, the depleted power of his soul was rapidly replenished. By the time he had ingested almost half of He Qianchi’s pills, the power of his soul was finally filled to the brim again. Even the four strands of Profound Sword Qi had been condensed again.

Only after condensing the Profound Sword Qi again did Jian Chen feel a little more confident. He could not fuse the twin swords unless there was good reason to, so the Profound Sword Qi became his strongest trump card.

“My little friend, since you’ve returned to your peak condition, it’s time for me to leave.” Yun Wufeng bade farewell as soon as Jian Chen had recovered.

“Senior Yun, Yue Wuguang is still alive. Don’t you want to eliminate this traitor? Now that my strength has recovered, I can assist you,” said Jian Chen.

Yun Wufeng became rather dispirited. He shook his head. “We still can’t kill him right now. They’ve already become lackeys of the Flame Reverend. Keeping these lackeys around might temporarily stabilise the situation with the Flame Reverend, but once we eliminate the lackeys that he has left on the Ice Pole Plane, we might prematurely draw out the Flame Reverend.”

“My friend, you don’t have to worry about me. My strength has recovered now, while it’ll be impossible for Yue Wuguang to recover in such a short period of time, so even if they come for me, I’ll be able to escape easily.”

Jian Chen’s eyes flickered. He asked, “It was the great elder of the Heavenly Crane clan that had said something to you, right?”

Yun Wufeng sighed. “It’s best if you don’t become involved with the matters of the Moon God Hall. You should avoid offending the Flame Reverend if you can. Fortunately, Yue Wuguang and the others don’t know your true identity right now, so it’s not too late for you to retreat.”

“Really? But they killed fairy Hao Yue. I have to avenge fairy Hao Yue. Whether it’s the elders or the great elders, I won’t spare anyone who’s connected to fairy Hao Yue’s death.”

“Fairy Hao Yue’s enemies are my enemies. She can’t get her revenge now, so I’ll get her revenge for her. Senior Yun, I only need a single answer from you. Do you plan on taking a step back and letting me avenge fairy Hao Yue alone, or are you going to lend me a hand?” Jian Chen said coldly.

Yun Wufeng stared straight at Jian Chen. Mixed emotions and dilemma flashed through his eyes. When he saw how Jian Chen was extremely stern and that he was not joking around, he obviously realised Jian Chen was serious with everything that he said. He really would go to the Moon God Hall alone and avenge little Yue’er in person.

After a very long while, Yun Wufeng finally let out a great sigh. “Sigh, so be it. Since you insist, then all I can do is assist you. Otherwise, if you go alone, you’ll struggle to stand a chance against the Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes, Luo Fei and Lin Zhongzheng, even if you have some unfathomable techniques.”

“My friend, when do you plan on taking action?”

“The sooner the better. Yue Wuguang’s soul is heavily wounded, so his strength has declined drastically. We can’t give him time to recover.”
