"Little brother, we're here." Chen Hongmian arrived outside Chen Wen's room and lightly knocked on the door.
Chen Wen slowly opened his eyes, two icy gleams flashing past them.
At the same time, the aura within and around him erupted, crushing the surrounding space into distorted currents of air.
Whoosh!
Only after Chen Wen exhaled a mouthful of turbid air did he draw in all the aura within and around his body.
Over five days, he had consumed hundreds of thousands of Spirit Crystals and God Sources.
Though this had not advanced his cultivation further, it had clearly brought a qualitative leap in his strength.
It could be said that he was more than twice as strong as he had been five days ago.
With that thought, Chen Wen stopped cultivating. After tidying himself up, he opened the door.
Standing before him was Chen Hongmian, whom he had not seen for five days.
Chen Hongmian immediately looked at Chen Wen, and a flicker of shock flashed through her eyes.
There were few geniuses in this world who could astonish her, because she herself was a peerless genius.
Yet in just five days, she could sense an obvious change in Chen Wen, a change that had occurred at a fundamental level.
What terrifying talent.
At that moment, she suddenly felt that she had still underestimated her little brother's talent.
Perhaps before long, the structure of the Lineage would change because of him.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?" Chen Wen asked.
Chen Hongmian gathered her thoughts and shook her head. "Your strength startled me."
"Compared to you, sis, I'm still leagues behind," Chen Wen said half-jokingly.
Chen Hongmian smiled as well. "What, you already want to surpass your sister?"
"Of course. Then I'll be able to protect you, sis,"
