Half an hour later, Chen Wen arrived outside the Chu Clan.
At this time, only Jiang Taichu remained. Everyone else had long since been dismissed.
The moment Jiang Taichu saw Chen Wen, he immediately stepped forward. "This humble one greets Young Master Chen."
At the same time, seeing that Chen Badao was no longer there, he silently breathed a sigh of relief.
The pressure of facing Chen Badao had simply been far too immense.
"Mm." Chen Wen nodded.
"May I ask, Young Master Chen, are we leaving now?" Jiang Taichu asked.
"Let's go," Chen Wen answered.
"Then this way, Young Master Chen."
With a wave of Jiang Taichu's hand, a massive spirit boat hovering in midair slowly descended, looking extraordinarily imposing.
What Chen Wen did not know was that this was a Saint Grade Spirit Boat, the Realm Guard Hall's highest-grade flying vessel.
Moreover, Jiang Taichu had specially transferred it over from the Main Hall.
In his eyes, no matter what Chen Wen wished to do, he had to be treated with the highest standards.
He truly did not want to experience what had happened before ever again. Even recalling it now made his scalp tingle.
Chen Wen's gaze fell upon the spirit boat, and he nodded. "Very well done."
"So long as Young Master Chen is satisfied." Jiang Taichu did not dare take credit.
Chen Wen said nothing more. With a light tap of his foot, he swept onto the spirit boat.
Jiang Taichu hurriedly followed after him.
Before long, the spirit boat pierced through the clouds and vanished into the sky.
At the same time, aboard the spirit boat.
"Young Master, how do you wish to proceed?" Jiang Taichu asked softly.
"Act openly and with fanfare. Say that I have come to the Hidden Forces, so long as my identity is not exposed."
"Also, investigate Chu Tianlong's forces and everyone connected to him. I want to wipe them all out in one sweep."
The corners of Chen Wen's lips rose slightly.
As for whether someone might notify Chu Tianlong in advance and ruin everything—
He was not worried about that in the slightest. His father had already laid out plans across the entire Ancient Yuan Realm.
The moment those people made any unusual move, they would be discovered immediately.
When that happened, matters would become even simpler. They would only need to follow the vine to find the melon and catch them all in one net.
"Understood. This humble one will make the arrangements properly," Jiang Taichu said repeatedly.
"Oh, right. My surname is Ye. Remember that." Chen Yin suddenly spoke.
There were many Hidden Forces in the Upper Realm, and one of the lower-ranked ones happened to be the Ye Clan.
These Hidden Forces were somewhat weaker than Destiny Factions, while the Ye Clan ranked relatively low among them.
Using this identity to deal with Chu Tianlong was just right.
"Yes, Young Master Ye," Jiang Taichu answered at once.
"Enough. You may go." Chen Wen waved his hand.
"Yes." Jiang Taichu nodded and withdrew from the room.
Chen Wen did not linger either, turning and heading toward his room.
The instant he entered, Chen Wen immediately entered a state of cultivation.
Although Chu Tianlong's forces were inferior to his, Chu Tianlong had been cultivating with his Emperor Bone for the past six years.
There was no need to think about it. Chu Tianlong had surely reached an unimaginably powerful realm.
Therefore, he had to seize every moment to cultivate.
Because he still wanted to kill Chu Tianlong with his own hands.
Time flew like an arrow.
Three days later, Chen Wen slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath of stale air.
A closer look would reveal that a thick layer of white powder had already piled up around his feet.
Over three days, he had consumed at least nearly a hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Crystals and God Source.
Yet even so, his cultivation had only barely reached the perfect tenth level of the Yin Yang Realm.
It would still take some time before he could break through.
Nirvana Liquid was still the most effective.
Chen Wen could not help letting out a quiet sigh.
Now, he looked forward even more to reaching the Heavenly Maiden Sacred Land. There should be quite a few Sons of Destiny there, right?
Killing Chu Tianlong was one matter, while harvesting a batch of Sons of Destiny was another.
At that thought, the corner of his lips curled upward, and his mood grew lighter as well.
"Knock, knock." Just then, a knocking sound came from outside the door.
Chen Wen did not continue cultivating. He strode out of the Cultivation Room.
The moment he opened the door, Jiang Taichu came into view.
"This humble one greets Young Mas—"
Jiang Taichu's pupils suddenly contracted as his gaze landed on Chen Wen.
As a Heavenly King Realm cultivator, he saw Chen Wen's changes at a glance.
Chen Wen's blood and qi surged like a tide, while his aura ran deep as the sea. He was countless times stronger than he had been three days ago.
Especially since this was while Chen Wen had yet to break through.
From this, it was clear just how heaven-defying Chen Wen's physique and foundation were.
"What is it?" Chen Wen noticed the fluctuation in Jiang Taichu's emotions and spoke.
Jiang Taichu hurriedly suppressed the turmoil in his heart. "This humble one lost focus. Please forgive me, Young Master."
He was no greenhorn. Naturally, he knew better than to openly discuss Chen Wen's changes, even if he had seen them himself.
As a servant, one had to possess a servant's awareness.
"Is there something?" Chen Wen did not expose Jiang Taichu's little thoughts.
Jiang Taichu immediately grew solemn. "We have arrived at the Heavenly Maiden Sacred Land. Please accompany this humble one to pay a visit."
Have we arrived?
Chu Tianlong, we will meet very soon.
The corner of Chen Wen's lips lifted.
Jiang Taichu naturally noticed Chen Wen's expression.
Yet for some inexplicable reason, a chill rose along his back.
"Have the arrangements been made?" Chen Wen asked.
"Your identity has already been relayed to the Sacred Land's Sacred Master in advance. As for Chu Tianlong's forces and those connected to him, they have also been mostly investigated."
"Before long, this humble one will give you a satisfactory answer, Young Master," Jiang Taichu hurriedly said.
"Mm, very well done. Lead the way." Chen Wen reined in his emotions and spoke.
"This way, Young Master." Jiang Taichu quickly stepped aside to clear a path.
After Chen Wen left the room, he immediately saw the endless mountain range ahead.
Palaces stood amid the mountains, while spirit clouds gathered overhead, reflecting all manner of strange phenomena.
Within the clouds of spiritual energy, spirit cranes could be seen circling through the air, their wings brushing scattered streams of light. Everything was dreamlike and ethereal.
It truly was magnificent.
Chen Wen could not help sighing softly.
The Chu Clan was considered decent in Qingshi Town, but compared to the Heavenly Maiden Sacred Land before him, it truly fell far, far short.
As the spirit boat gradually descended, the Heavenly Maiden Sacred Land's mountain gate came into view and grew ever larger.
Hmm.
Why do the four words "Heavenly Maiden Sacred Land" seem to contain such profound Dao Resonance?
Perhaps noticing Chen Wen's reaction, Jiang Taichu explained from the side, "This is the Dao Resonance left behind by the First Generation Sacred Master, for later disciples to comprehend the Dao."
"Yet to this day, not a single person has obtained this inheritance. What a pity for such a strand of Dao Resonance."
At this, Jiang Taichu could not help sighing regretfully.
"Not even Chu Tianlong?" Chen Wen was somewhat surprised.
"That is correct. Not even him," Jiang Taichu answered.
Then I would like to see what kind of thing could make even Chu Tianlong shrink back in fear.
The corners of Chen Wen's lips curved slightly.
But he did not attempt it immediately.
Because his foremost objective now was to meet Chu Tianlong.
To see what sort of person this man who dared impersonate him truly was.
