Chapter 150: Fifth-Stage Star General!

Chen Yan was very calm.

Excessively calm.

He followed quietly behind Shen Yiwei, watching as Shen Yiwei stepped onto the water surface and walked upon the ripples.

Chen Yan walked forward at a leisurely pace, his toes stepping onto the water surface, quickly submerged by an inch in the clear lake.

A surge of force overflowed from within Chen Yan's body, layers of force penetrating from the soles of his feet, extending across the lake surface.

Following that, his footsteps were light.

All around, no one paid attention to Chen Yan.

Everyone's attention was focused on Shen Yiwei.

Even though Chen Yan could walk on water, it did not cause any surprise.

This was a Technique that a Second-Stage Warrior could master with a little extra practice.

Shen Yiwei, however, was slightly startled, though he did not look back.

He knew that this should be Chen Yan's first time walking on water.

The first time, and he could be this proficient.

Chen Yan had extremely high talent.

What is talent?

Agility of thought, steadfast quality, and the ability to focus one's entire Spirit are all talent.

Chen Yan might be a dull person by nature, but when walking on water, he had focused his Brain on the problem of how to walk on water.

And then conquered it.

Regardless of whether he thought of a hundred methods or just one.

Now that he could succeed, that meant he had powerful strength.

When expressed, it was called extremely high talent.

Others did not care how hard you actually tried to think about the problem.

As long as you could succeed, they would say you had talent.

To hell with talent; talent is an insult to hard work.

Diligence of thought is the only true diligence.

Shen Yiwei's Mu Jin flickered as he looked at the Gong Family Head, Gong Wu, and Gong Hangwen beside him.

They did not know, they did not know what kind of genius was following behind them!

"Shen Yiwei, that person will not harm Chen Yan again in the future; as long as your two sides reconcile, then everything will be fine."

Old Master Gong spoke:

"My Gong Family participating in this matter is for profit, and you also have profit to gain; let us split the benefits equally."

Gong Hangwen listened quietly, observing Shen Yiwei's expression the entire time.

The five people had already walked into the High Tower at the Lake Heart.

"What benefits?" Shen Yiwei asked.

"One Qingqiong Grade A Treasure Medicine!" Gong Wu said, stepping onto the stairs.

From beginning to end, he did not look at Chen Yan behind him, even though Chen Yan was the one who had been secretly harmed.

"No."

Shen Yiwei shook his head.

"Think it's too little?"

Gong Wu Frown, and for the first time, he looked at Chen Yan:

"There are indeed some stories behind you, but I want to tell you that being dragged into this story is something you would not want to accept."

Gong Wu revealed a Smile:

"Perhaps you think we are too mean and cold-blooded, but the world is just like this.

Sometimes, being protected by rules is a kind of luck."

He spoke in a mysterious Manner, then looked at Shen Yiwei:

"I will sponsor Chen Yan with another Qingqiong Grade D Treasure Medicine; Chen Yan is a Horizontal Refinement Prodigy, so give him a Horizontal Refinement Treasure Medicine!"

The group arrived at a tea room at the top of the tower.

The tea hall hidden among the clouds was like a jade pavilion in a fairyland.

Stepping inside, the faint scent of sandalwood and the fragrance of tea intertwined, lingering in strands, plucking at one's heartstrings.

Chen Yan sat down quietly, never having expressed his own point of view.

"Still not satisfied?" Gong Wu's face Sink, thinking that Shen Yiwei wanted too much.

"Shen Yiwei, do you really want us to hand over that person?"

Gong Hangwen spoke, his expression changing slightly at this moment:

"If we don't hand them over, then nothing happened, and we all get some benefits; but once we hand them over, can you handle it on your end?"

Shen Yiwei's expression was calm:

"If you don't hand them over, then what about the harm Chen Yan has suffered all this time?"

As Shen Yiwei's voice fell, the tea room was filled with silence.

A trace of Annoyance appeared in Gong Hangwen's eyes.

What are you pretending for?

You participated in this, isn't it because you wanted benefits?

Don't hypocritically say you want to seek fairness for the genius under your command.

Everyone is not a fool.

Gong Hangwen's gaze shifted to Chen Yan:

"Chen Yan, I understand what you have encountered all this time.

But if you insist on laying everything bare, that is something you cannot bear."

The Youth wearing Black Clothes looked at Gong Hangwen with quiet Mu Guang:

"So everything I have encountered is just going to end like this?"

"It won't. My Father also said he would give you an Azure Dome Grade D-tier precious medicine as compensation!"

Gong Hangwen was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looking very refined.

But Chen Yan had seen Zhou Lu's memories.

This person was the one behind the affairs of the Gong Family.

Beneath an elegant exterior, one does not know what kind of ugly Spirit lies hidden.

A trace of a Smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yan's Mouth.

"Not satisfied?"

Gong Hangwen's complexion turned worse.

Chen Yan sat quietly. The entire High Tower was wrapped in a layer of broken clouds. Through the carved window lattices, the scenery in the distance appeared and disappeared in the ethereal Yun Xu, just like an ink wash painting.

The value of this Cloud Mid Courtyard is something an average person in Yunmeng City would not even dare to imagine.

To be able to build such a fairyland in a Small City like Yunmeng City, as others call it, must be very happy.

But even so, this family is still not satisfied.

Seeing that they have use for me, they are now wasting their breath trying to earn an extra penny.

Chen Yan Stood Up and looked out the window.

The discussion inside the tea room seemed to have nothing to do with him, the person involved.

The matter has developed to this point now.

The people of the Gong Family would only pay attention to him because of Shen Yiwei.

So from the very beginning, this discussion was meaningless.

Chen Yan Stood Up.

"Chen Yan, what are you going to do?"

Gong Tuo asked in surprise, calling out to Chen Yan who was already walking to the door.

Shen Yiwei's body stiffened as he looked at Chen Yan.

Gong Tuo and Gong Wu frowned.

"Going to the Ce Suo," Chen Yan said.

Gong Tuo pursed his lips; he did not know what to say.

Chen Yan walked out of the room.

Shen Yiwei's complexion became complicated.

Chen Yan was decisive enough.

Gong Tuo's brows furrowed. He looked out the window and saw that Chen Yan had already walked out of the High Tower and stepped onto the Lake Surface.

Gong Tuo's heart Sank. If he wanted to go to the Ce Suo, there was one inside this High Tower; why did Chen Yan have to walk out?

Gong Tuo Stood Up. Recalling Chen Yan's previous expression, he felt in his heart that something bad would happen.

"I'll go out for a moment too."

Gong Tuo left with quick steps.

Gong Wu and Gong Hangwen had their hearts and minds set on Shen Yiwei, so they would not think about what Chen Yan would do at this moment.

Even if Chen Yan said it to their faces, they would probably think Chen Yan was joking.

…………

At the same time.

Military Martial Guard.

"Shen Yiwei bypassed me and reported a Ji Xing for Chen Yan again?"

Inside the Office, Xia Chiyi held his phone, his complexion low and dark.

"Didn't he tell you?" A surprised man's voice rang out from the phone.

"He didn't tell me. He has always been dissatisfied with me."

As Xia Chiyi spoke, his body was trembling slightly.

In his Brain, he recalled that rainy night.

"I, Shen Yiwei, have never begged anyone in my life, but this time, my Master is being forced to go to the Ancient God Forbidden Land. Are you not going to step forward?"

The Rain Curtain was like a screen. Shen Yiwei, wearing a military uniform, stood on the earth, soaked through.

"King Xia Yue, my Master is your bosom friend!"

Inside the room, Xia Chiyi stood up several times and sat down several times.

Everyone in the Office had a difficult expression; no one stepped out.

Shaking his head, Xia Chiyi stepped out of the memory, then spoke in a low voice into the phone:

"What grade of Ji Xing did Shen Yiwei re-apply for that Chen Yan?"

The other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Fifth Rank."

Xia Chiyi was Stun.

"Are you kidding me?"

Ji Xing above the sixth stage all have exclusive titles.

"It was indeed reported this way, and there is actually a probability of success," the man on the other end of the phone spoke.

Xia Chiyi's eyes, originally as calm as autumn water, suddenly widened due to the unexpected turn of events:

"What... do you mean?"

"It happened just a few days ago, during the days you set out; Chen Yan slaughtered two third-stage Ancient Divine Beasts and one Half-Step Fourth Stage Ancient Divine Beast."

The person on the other end of the phone said, when mentioning the words 'Half-Step Fourth Stage'.

Xia Chiyi was Stun, and the Woman in green robes beside her began to breathe rapidly.

"That's not right!" Xia Chiyi frowned; although astonished, she also discovered something amiss:

"Even with all this, Chen Yan can at most be evaluated as sixth stage; could it be that Shen Yiwei intentionally reported it higher?"

"These are not the main points."

The man on the other end of the phone also took a deep breath, as if to alleviate the shock in his heart:

"The point is, that Chen Yan destroyed a fifth-stage Ancient Divine Malice Crystal alone, his Force Pattern reached the Limit of thirty-six, and he also..."

The man took a deep breath:

"He also independently created a Qingqiong Grade C-Class True Intent Method!

It is a True Intent Method, not Horizontal Refinement or External Refining Martial Arts!"
