The sudden explosion in the secret realm startled everyone, leaving them terrified. They stared in disbelief at Lin Xuan, looking left and right but unable to comprehend how he could be so bold as to disturb the Demon Emperor!
Moreover, Wu Liang...
Who is it this time?
Furthermore, who is this person? He awakened the Demon Emperor and prematurely eliminated everyone; what benefit does he gain?!
Damn it!
But no matter how much they prayed, Wu Liang was still awakened. He awoke from his meditation, slowly opened his eyes, and his aura exploded in an instant, sweeping across the entire secret realm, terrifying many people into silence.
Having consumed the Holy Spirit Essence, the oppressive aura emanating from him intensified. In just a short time, the pressure emanating from him had increased significantly.
After all, he is currently in a period of recovery, not a real advancement. In other words, he is just going through the same old path to becoming Great Emperor.
However, others were unaware of this. They only felt that this demon emperor was not only terrifying in strength, but also in talent, to the point of despair. In just this short period of time, he had become so oppressive.
As everyone watched, they also wondered what fate awaited Lin Xuan, who had disturbed the Demon Emperor's meditation.
However, to everyone's surprise, Wu Liang suddenly appeared in front of them, his brows slightly furrowed, but he neither got angry nor refuted the name " Wu Liang ".
He glanced at Chu Chen casually and spoke coldly.
"With such poor aptitude, he's not worthy to be my disciple?"
Chu Chen's face turned pale instantly.
A prodigy of his generation, deemed to have extremely poor talent—how could he possibly save face?
But before he could even feel ashamed and indignant, he heard Wu Liang speak again.
"Master, what has happened?"
Lin Xuan frowned slightly; anyone could see his displeasure.
"What is it? It's nothing more than someone claiming to be your disciple, trying to get me to beg him for mercy, and even wanting my disciple to follow him."
What?
Wu Liang was taken aback.
He subconsciously looked at Chu Chen, somewhat incredulous, never expecting that there could be such a foolish and audacious person in this world.
Should Lin Xuan beg him?
How could he let Su Lianxin be with him without any status or recognition?
How dare he do that?
Although Lin Xuan's strength was not as great as his, he was not someone that any junior prodigy could provoke; he was someone who could easily crush Gong Yang.
It would be even more outrageous for Su Lianxin to be with him.
Although he was the deputy head of the Sword Pavilion, he wouldn't underestimate this eldest disciple of the head of the pavilion. Putting aside her monstrous talent, just considering how much Lin Xuan valued her, who would dare to offend her?
The idiot in front of me not only stepped on a landmine, but he stepped on every landmine he could.
They even dared to intimidate others, claiming to be someone else's disciple, only to run into their own sect leader?
Wu Liang felt that he hadn't experienced such vivid emotions since escaping from that trapped place.
He just wanted to laugh.
I laughed at the stupidity of such an idiot.
He turned to look at Chu Chen, his eyes flashing with dark gold, instantly releasing a naked killing intent.
Chu Chen was completely dumbfounded at this moment.
Things took a sudden and unexpected turn of events. He felt completely bewildered and lost, the world spinning around him, making it impossible for him to distinguish between reality and illusion.
How could that be...?
How could that be!
Pavilion Master?
Someone he could only look up to and yearn for a chance from, was actually so respectful in front of Lin Xuan?
In fact, Lin Xuan's status seems to be even above that of the Demon Emperor; even the Demon Emperor can only address him as Pavilion Master?
And Miss Su, she's not Lin Xuan's confidante, but... his disciple?!
Lin Xuan... Sect Master...
Wait, Pavilion... Sword Pavilion!?
He remembered.
Chu Chen's face paled instantly. Several crucial clues were laid out before him. What else could he not remember?
Sword Pavilion Ge!
The top spot on the Earth Ranking Lianxin of the Sword Pavilion; the top spot on the Heaven Ranking Chongming of the Sword Pavilion; and Lin Xuan is among the top three on the Heaven Ranking!
Previously, he had never connected the two people with those on the Heaven and Earth Rankings. The Profound Domain was so vast that there were countless people with the same surname and name.
"You, you are Lianxin, Su Lianxin!?"
Chu Chen looked at Su Lianxin in disbelief, his tone urgent.
Su Lianxin frowned and looked at him coldly.
How... how is this possible...?
Chu Chen felt as if he were dreaming, or rather, having a nightmare. Under the oppressive imperial might of Wu Liang, he knelt on the ground with a thud.
His knee made a crisp cracking sound; it was definitely shattered. But Chu Chen seemed oblivious to the pain, only appearing dazed.
Bai Linglong, standing to the side, also felt as if she were dreaming, her face filled with disbelief.
Miss Su is actually Lin Xuan's disciple?
Even this Demon Emperor is one of Young Master Lin's people... no, Young Master Lin's demon!
sky.
He really is incredibly talented!
No wonder he said the Bai Household's affairs were not difficult to handle.
I see, I see!
Bai Linglong was amazed, but the Chu Household who rushed over after sensing the commotion, led by Chu Tianfang, were completely stunned when they saw Chu Chen kneeling on the ground.
Chu Tianfang's expression also changed.
He didn't know what Chu Chen had done to deserve being punished by the Demon Emperor to kneel on the ground, but the Demon Emperor's overwhelming aura explained everything.
Suppressing his fear, Chu Tianfang approached Wu Liang and spoke with trepidation.
"My lord, what... what's going on... has my son done something wrong?"
Wu Liang gave a cold laugh.
"Well, you'll have to ask your good son."
He glanced at Lin Xuan, and seeing that Lin Xuan didn't intend to speak, he continued.
"This is the Pavilion Master of my Sword Pavilion, and your good son claims to be my disciple, asking my Sword Pavilion Master to beg him for mercy, and even demanding that my Direct Disciple offer himself to him."
"Tell me, what did he do wrong?"
Upon Chu Tianfang's face turned deathly pale. His gaze turned to Chu Chen in disbelief, never expecting that his proud son would do such a thing.
In particular, Bai Linglong was also watching the drama unfold and adding her own commentary.
"Uncle Chu, the Demon Emperor is absolutely right. Moreover, at the very beginning, Pavilion Master Lin and Miss Su were traveling with us. Everything was peaceful until Chu Chen suddenly went crazy and insisted on challenging Pavilion Master Lin and causing Pavilion Master Lin trouble..."
"Fortunately, Pavilion Master Lin didn't hold it against him and left with Miss Su."
"It's a pity we could have come with Pavilion Master Lin!"
After hearing Bai Linglong's finishing blow, Chu Tianfang completely broke down.
He nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
That unfilial son!
What on earth did this unfilial son do?!
Over the past two weeks, the entire Chu Household has devoted countless efforts to befriending the Demon Emperor. They were the ones who first noticed the situation, the elders who pointed it out, and the Chu Household who offered their full support during times of crisis. The Chu Household had all the advantages: favorable timing, advantageous location, and popular support.
Shouldn't this take off with the wind?!
Now, everything is ruined, completely destroyed by this rebellious son!
Chu Tianfang pointed at Chu Chen, his hands and feet trembling with rage. He wished he could slap Chu Chen to death and turn back time. He was so angry that he couldn't utter a single word.
That fool! If he could seize the opportunity to travel with this Pavilion Master Lin and leave a good impression, what a tremendous fortuitous opportunity that would be!
Even if he's stupid enough to leave a bad impression, as long as we can maintain peace and avoid causing trouble, the Chu Household can still benefit from the Demon Emperor's influence and rise to power.
Chu Tianfang couldn't even imagine what kind of being could command such utmost respect from a demon emperor!
It's one thing if you don't want to befriend me!
They actually challenged them, drove them away, and even coveted their disciples?
They neither left a good impression nor could they maintain peace; on the contrary, they provoked us repeatedly and even went so far as to act obnoxious!
This wretched creature is incredibly lucky to have survived this long! It's all thanks to my own mercy!
Chu Tianfang with regret and anger. Looking at Chu Chen, he had only one thought in his mind.
Why didn't he just drown this wretched child in the chamber pot at home when he was born?
