Within the Qianyuan Realm, Shen Yi parted ways with Jiang Miaoyi.
"Be careful on this journey. I don't think Zhou Chen will let this rest," Jiang Miaoyi said, standing opposite Shen Yi. She bent down to gently flick Shen Qing's nose and solemnly instructed Shen Yi, "Take good care of Qing'er. If he comes to even the slightest harm, I will never forgive you!"
Watching Jiang Miaoyi's retreating figure, Shen Yi felt a thousand thoughts churn in his heart, which only made his resolve firmer.
"Master, I think that Zhou Chen is deceitful. This trip, he will surely make a clandestine move against you."
Inside the carriage, Yu Chen was likewise somewhat apprehensive. Once they entered the territory of the Later Zhou Dynasty, only Sikong Guxing, Little Black, and he would be there to guard them. The surface harmony between Shen Yi and Zhou Chen was actually an irreconcilable enmity; the moment a real conflict erupted, their side would undoubtedly be the ones to suffer.
"Do not worry, I have my own plans."
Shen Yi was brimming with confidence and gently waved his hand. The news of his intention to travel to the Later Zhou Dragon Transformation Pool for cultivation was precisely what he had prompted Jiang Miaoyi to secretly spread through imperial channels. With public opinion on their side, even if Zhou Chen truly wanted to make a covert move, he would have to think twice.
His greatest concern right now was his disciple Shen Qing's cultivation. Shen Qing had already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining and was only a step away from Foundation Establishment. With the heaven-defying aptitude of his Supreme Immortal Body, he feared that once Shen Qing reached Foundation Establishment, it would become impossible to conceal, and a storm would inevitably churn around him.
