Watching this scene, Wang Chen could only sigh. The joys and sorrows of people were never truly shared.
Although he was from the Sun and Moon Empire, logically speaking, seeing his compatriots beaten black and blue should have filled him with grief.
But... perhaps because his gains earlier had been too great, he was in far too cheerful a mood at the moment.
Wang Chen silently muttered to himself, "Don't worry. At the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament, I'll win back your honor."
As Wang Chen murmured to himself, several young women from the Sun and Moon Empire around him looked at one another.
In the end, one of them gathered her courage, walked over to Wang Chen, and invited him to join their gathering.
Wang Chen gave them a glance. After confirming they were not people he could not afford to offend, he reflexively declined in a tactful manner. "Sorry, I still have a family assignment to carry out. If fate allows, next time, I definitely..."
Ignoring the disappointed expressions on the girls' faces, Wang Chen immediately called to the guard beside him and swiftly turned to leave.
Perhaps because he was too handsome, there were always people lusting after his body whenever he went out.
Before long, Wang Chen and his guard left Heaven Dou Plaza and arrived at the room of a hotel where he had been staying.
"Young Master Chen, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament has ended. Will you return to the Sun and Moon Empire immediately, or remain in the Heaven Dou Empire for a few more days?" The guard cupped his hands toward Wang Chen.
This guard possessed considerable cultivation. His name was Shen Kang, and he was a Soul King. He had been specially dispatched by the Wang Family's upper ranks to protect Wang Chen while he was away from home.
Hearing the guard's question, Wang Chen thought for a moment.
The purpose of his trip had been to use the Black Book to record some powerful skills from this Soul Duel Tournament for study.
So that he could take first place in the Family Competition a month later. Now that his goal had been achieved, there was naturally no reason for him to remain here.
After all, this was the Heaven Dou Empire, not the Sun and Moon Empire. If he stayed too long, no one could guarantee his safety.
Leaning against the hotel sofa, Wang Chen said, "Uncle Shen, arrange transport back to the Sun and Moon Empire as soon as possible."
"Young Master Chen, this subordinate suggests that when the time comes, we return to Mingdu together with the other nobles who came to watch the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament. The route along the way can... ensure our safety to the greatest extent possible."
Wang Chen smiled. "Uncle Shen, you understand these matters better than I do. I'll leave the arrangements to you."
Wang Chen had never believed that knowing the plot made him omniscient and omnipotent. He did indeed know many secrets through the original story.
But there was undoubtedly far more that he did not understand. As the saying went, amateurs should not direct professionals. Professional matters should be left to professionals.
Blindly giving orders would only cause problems.
"Yes, this subordinate shall take his leave."
Creak~ As the door shut tightly.
Wang Chen sat on the sofa and calmly opened the wine cabinet beside him. He took out a bottle of red wine and poured it into a glass.
Looking at the transparent crystal glass and the crimson wine within, Wang Chen carried the glass to the window, savoring the wine while enjoying the beautiful scenery outside.
Under the sunlight streaming through the window, Wang Chen's black eyes seemed to be dyed with a layer of golden flames.
Time passed in a flash. Three days later, at Ying Hou Manor in Mingdu.
After spending a month in Heaven Dou City, Wang Chen finally returned home after three days of arduous travel. There had been no mishaps along the way; he had arrived safe and sound.
Just as Wang Chen returned home and reunited with his family.
Mingdu, the Hongchen Family.
A blue-eyed girl with silver-white hair was tiptoeing quietly toward the front gate without making a sound.
Just as she had made it most of the way there, with the gate within reach and delight filling her eyes.
A deep, powerful voice rang out. "Sweet granddaughter, where do you want to go?"
Upon hearing that deep voice, the girl shuddered like a startled cat.
An adorable smile appeared on her face as she turned around. "Grandpa, I'm just going out to have some fun. I'm almost bored to death staying at home!"
