Chapter 2753: Chapter 2748: Yang Chen’s Whereabouts_1
Even if Yang Chen’s influence was strong and vast, it was clearly inferior compared to the king-level powerhouses.
This caused his status to plummet from the heavens to the abyss as soon as the Wanted Order issued by the King of Joyful Sound, turning him into a target of public criticism and someone everyone wanted to punish.
First of all, the King of Joyful Sound’s prestige was at stake.
Secondly, the King of Joyful Sound had offered a rare Emperor Divine Tool in exchange for Yang Chen’s life, which was enough to make even Boundless Stage experts covet. Even in the Southern Region, Emperor Divine Tools were extremely scarce.
Who wouldn’t want an Emperor Divine Tool?
Many powerful ones had already begun to become restless and prepared to make a move on Yang Chen.
Although Yang Chen’s reputation wasn’t low before, after the incident with the King of Joyful Sound, it wouldn’t lead everyone to doubt his character. But his rise to fame had been too short, which caused many to envy him.
Now, not only in the Three Flowers Divine Region, but also in other major divine regions, people began searching for information about Yang Chen.
The King of Joyful Sound made full use of his connections and seemed determined not to give up unless Yang Chen was killed.
Yang Chen’s situation was extremely dangerous.
…
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, half a month went by.
In half a month’s time, many things could happen, and Yang Chen’s situation had caused quite a stir throughout the Spirit King Sacred Area.
Ancient Glyph City was one of the largest cities in the Spirit King Sacred Area, and it was a place where various forces in the Spirit King Sacred Area engaged in communication and exchange.
It could be said that many capable and talented individuals had gathered in the city.
Enlightenment Stage and True God Realm experts could be found everywhere, and even Nirvana Stage Experts occasionally appeared. There were even rumors of mysterious Great Ascension stage experts who would appear from time to time.
In front of the huge city gate of Ancient Glyph City, there was a notice posted. The glowing text was displayed in front of everyone, and it couldn’t be removed without a certain level of cultivation.
This announcement was precisely about the wanted order for Yang Chen.
Many people were watching and discussing.
“Who is this Yang Chen that even the King of Joyful Sound has gone to such lengths to issue a Wanted Order for him?”
“Hehe, you don’t know about it, do you? Yang Chen’s identity is quite extraordinary. Before he was wanted by the King of Joyful Sound, he was a battlefield hero who accomplished great feats for humans. In the Nirvana Stage, he was admired and idolized by countless people. But now, in an instant, he has been wanted by the King of Joyful Sound. I’d say Yang Chen must have lost himself for a moment, unable to see his position and the gap between him and the king-level powerhouses, which led him to offend them. Little did he know that Nirvana Stage experts were nothing in the eyes of king-level powerhouses.”
“Hehe, it’s common for young people to get lost after achieving a little success on the battlefield. The trouble is when they fail to see their true positions.”
“This Yang Chen is finished. What chance does he have to live after offending a king-level powerhouse?”
The people were discussing, and among the crowd, two men were standing with their eyes half-closed, looking cold and eerie…
If Yang Chen were here, he could surely recognize them.
These two were none other than Peng Wanli and Mu Taiqing.
Peng Wanli and Mu Taiqing were watching the Wanted Order attentively, and soon, they revealed a slight sneer.
Peng Wanli sneered, “Looks like we’re a step too late. This kid was too arrogant and overbearing, so he was wiped out by a king-level powerhouse.”
“Don’t celebrate too soon. This kid probably hasn’t died yet. And even if he really did die, it doesn’t seem like good news for us either. You should know why we’re looking for him.” Mu Taiqing spoke in a gloomy tone, as if he didn’t want Yang Chen to die at the hands of a king-level powerhouse.
Peng Wanli held his hands behind his back and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
“We should expand the search area and make sure no one, whether they’re a king-level powerhouse or someone else, kills this Yang fellow before we do.” Mu Taiqing’s eyes darted around, as only he knew how important Yang Chen was to him.
…
What Peng Wanli and Mu Taiqing didn’t know was that…
In a certain street of Ancient Glyph City, a young man with a tall and straight figure but dark skin and an unremarkable face was arguing with a young servant in the appearance of a child.
“Young friend, I am indeed a Nirvana Stage expert, how else can I prove it to you?” The dark-skinned young man said helplessly.
But the child looked sharp and disdainful, replying, “You think you’re a Nirvana Stage expert with that youthful look? You must be deluding yourself. Do you even have any idea who you are? A Nirvana Stage expert? Do you think they run around in the streets?”
The dark-skinned young man was none other than Yang Chen.
Yang Chen had come to this place all the way from Spirit King Mountain, going through countless difficulties and hardships along the way. On his journey, he didn’t know how many people wanted to kill him.
As soon as the Wanted Order was issued, all the forces in the Spirit King Sacred Area went mad, desperately trying to find him.
Yang Chen dared not keep his original appearance any longer.
He was not afraid of others, but he was afraid of the King of Joyful Sound.
So without a second thought, he used the Face Changing Technique to change his appearance and carefully proceeded without slowing down. After much pain and hardship, he finally arrived here!
Having arrived in Ancient Glyph City, Yang Chen originally wanted to rest for a while and then head directly to the Heaven Lord Pavilion.
But he happened to see an announcement inviting everyone to join the triennial recruitment of the Heaven Lord Pavilion. Three Nirvana period cultivators were inviting others on the same path to join them on their way to the Heaven Lord Pavilion for the Assessment.
Upon hearing about this, Yang Chen hesitated and naturally chose to join.
Although he had changed his appearance, traveling alone to Heaven Lord Pavilion would still attract attention, so he decided to go with others to keep a low profile.
In order not to be recognized as Yang Chen, he had to rack his brains. The only problem was that he still looked a bit too young, so when he claimed to be a Nirvana Stage expert, the child in front of him refused to believe it and wouldn’t let him in.
That put Yang Chen in an awkward position.
Seeing that the child didn’t believe him at all, Yang Chen could only shrug his shoulders and then release his Qi, bursting out with the aura of a Nirvana Stage expert.
Although he had only unleashed over two thousand Dao Intent Inscriptions, it was enough to shock the child, making him shiver all over.
“You… you’re really a Nirvana Stage expert!”
Yang Chen feigned anger and said with an irritable expression, “Now do you believe me? You’ve doubted me several times. Do you really think I’m made of mud and have a good temper?”
