Chapter 9: One Morning Entering Martial Sovereign

Liu Liyan indeed said another paragraph: "But I really like that parrot, because three years ago you fed it and even touched its head, and it got your scent on it."

"Unfortunately, Miss Lin was pecked by it and even scolded by it; in anger, she had someone pull out the parrot's tongue."

"However, fortunately, on the day you came to me for the parrot, you spoke to me a full eight sentences, thirty-six characters; I remember it clearly, its life was worth it."

""

Su Chen's brain suddenly crashed, his mind went completely blank.

So——

Over these three years, every word of insult and mockery, every sentence, and every event that Liu Liyan endured were obtained by her through every means.

As long as I can see him, anything goes?

Why is this?

What exactly do I have that could attract her to this extent, make her so obsessed with me?

Su Chen simply couldn't figure it out no matter what!

Could it be because of those eyes? However, Su Chen, who is familiar with the plot, knows this is not the curse those cultivators speak of, but a special physique.

Including today's Ye Feng, they all seem to be afraid of that pair of eyes.

However, he clearly knows that Liu Liyan's ultimate fate is to be killed by the plot, and the reason is that the Son of Destiny, Ye Xuan, praised her eyes as truly beautiful.

In the end, Liu Liyan killed herself.

As time passed, Su Chen's Innate Sacred Body Dao Fetus accelerated the refinement of spiritual energy, forcing him into a cultivation state.

He heard the steady increase of points in his ear, and before entering the activated passive cultivation mode, he had only one thought: "Damn system, because of your mistaken-person remark, you almost ruined my whole life!"

After Liu Liyan finished speaking about the parrot-snatching incident, she didn't say another word.

She sat quietly and elegantly on the bed.

Her fair wrist was held in Su Chen's palm.

She kept that gesture until the sky showed a hint of fish-belly white, then she gently pried open Su Chen's palm, took away her little hand, and deeply gazed at Su Chen with great reluctance.

"Whoosh!"

Her form turned illusory and vanished from the spot.

The points setting of the Ten Thousand Realms Mall is: 【points】

After Su Chen exited the cultivation state and stretched his body fiercely, the room no longer had Liu Liyan's figure; he immediately checked his points, and upon seeing the breakthrough, he felt a bit light-headed.

He quickly tidied his clothing.

After glancing at the sky, he flashed and appeared at the sect gate.

At this moment.

Outside the Tianxuan Dao Sect's Protective Grand Formation, three black flood dragons had been prepared, and many elders and disciples were present, the atmosphere somewhat solemn.

They weren't sure whether the Tianxuan Dao Sect truly intended to let them go or was merely testing them.

Madam Su stood in the hall with a weary face, instructing the remaining elders and disciples who had willingly stayed: "I've already arranged everything for what comes next; going forth, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable."

"Once our sect sets out, the cultivators hired by the Ye family, who lurk in the dark watching the Tianxuan Dao Sect, will surely relax; then you can find a chance to knock out the young master and safely bring him out of the Eastern Wasteland Region."

"The farther, the better; never come back!"

"Do you all understand?"

The elders and disciples knelt, voices resonant and strong: "Disciples, we obey!"

"Then!"

Just as the words fell,

The tightly closed hall doors were pushed open by Su Chen's palm; he stood calmly in the center, looking at the astonished elders, disciples, and mother: "So, Mother, are you planning to go make a deal with the Ye family?"

Seeing her son suddenly appear, Madam Su's red lips moved, and she let out a sorrowful sigh.

She waved her hand, letting the elders and disciples step back temporarily.

When only mother and son remained in the hall, Madam Su could no longer hold back her reluctance and pain; her peach-blossom eyes veiled with tears: "Chen'er, it's Mother's inadequacy, Mother's failure toward you!"

"These past years, your thoughts have always been on Lin Jianran; I don't know the current strength of your forces."

"Although our Heavenly Profound Dao Sect is nominally the leader of the four great sects in the Eastern Wasteland Region, the Flaming Yang Sect to the west has always harbored wolfish ambitions, and you have also feuded with the Ye family; originally such insignificant ants weren't worth noting, but now they rely on the power of Central State,"

"plus the Flaming Yang Sect and Cold Moon Sect giving their all to help, while your father is still in seclusion… our Heavenly Profound Dao Sect has no choice!"

"Chen'er, heed Mother's words; you must escape the Eastern Wasteland Region and live well."

"It's Mother who cannot protect you!"

While speaking,

Madam Su's eyes glistened with tears; she quickly turned away, fearing her son would see.

And Su Chen, from these words, finally grasped the key information.

Familiar with the plot, he had always wondered why his mother would go to the Ye family for a deal, and why the mighty Heavenly Profound Dao Sect would collapse before any action was taken.

It turned out that while he was wholeheartedly pursuing Lin Jianran, the situation had already changed.

"Mother."

Su Chen lifted his head, his eyes bursting with uncontainable ambition: "Mother, your plan to go to the Ye family for a trade is because Father hasn't left seclusion, and the strong ones of Central State have profound cultivation; you fear the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect's Protective Grand Formation cannot withstand them."

"And your own cultivation is only at the Wu Zong Realm; are these the three reasons?"

Madam Su's face drooped as she nodded.

"Exactly."

"But these three points are all fatal."

"If the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect had a supremely powerful cultivator in command, as well as a high-level Protective Grand Formation, it would fundamentally fear neither the Ye family's backing nor the two great sects."

"On the Beiming Continent, strength reigns supreme; whoever has the highest cultivation holds the right to speak."

"Good!" Su Chen suddenly grabbed Madam Su's arm, saying word by word: "These three points, I will take care of them."

Mother, as long as we solve these problems, our Heavenly Profound Dao Sect need not fear any lousy Central Province forces, right?

Madam Su moved her lips and said: "Chen'er... now is not the time to joke; hurry and leave via the transmission array!"

How can these three problems be solved? Our Heavenly Profound Dao Sect lacks a Heavenly-rank formation master, so we cannot set up the sect-protecting grand formation capable of resisting Martial Venerable Realm experts; our sect's highest cultivation is mine now, and these points simply cannot be resolved.

Listen to Mother, be sensible, hurry and leave via the transmission array from the Eastern Wasteland; even if Father and Mother die, it's fine, but you must absolutely come to no harm.

Su Chen interrupted Madam Su's words, speaking frankly: "Mother, I'm not joking! I'm serious! Give me one hour, and I will surely prove it to you!"

Mother, please believe your son!

Madam Su pursed her thin lips, swallowing all her admonishing words.

Never mind.

He wanted to try, so let him try.

After all, this is the only chance for Chen'er to let loose.

As Su Chen pulled Madam Su out of the sect gate, he happened to run into the sect leader who had just emerged from seclusion and his second sister, Su Lingxue; they hadn't yet had a chance to see Su Chen off via the transmission array.

Su Chen directly grabbed his wrist and pulled him all the way out of the sect gate: "Father, you've emerged from seclusion? No need to worry if you didn't break through; Second Sister, have you hit a bottleneck in your cultivation? Come with me."

Four voices vanished into the sect.

When they reappeared, they were already outside the sect-protecting grand formation of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect.

The sect leader and second sister who had just emerged from seclusion both panicked, looking toward Madam Su in unison.

Madam Su hadn't said yesterday that she would seal Chen'er's meridians, knock him out, and use the transmission array to send him out of Heavenly Origin City? But now... what's going on with coming to the entrance of the sect-protecting grand formation?

In an instant.

The three of them stood suspended in midair.

Here, everything was deserted; there were no lookouts around, and no one would ever pass through this place.

Su Chen stepped forward first.

Chen'er, what are you doing?

The sect leader hastily grabbed his son's arm, his eyes showing worry: "Our Profound Heaven Dao Sect is now isolated and helpless; the only option now is to make a deal with the Ye family to buy you time to leave the Eastern Wasteland. Will you listen to your father?"

If... if you're doing this because you can't let go of Lin Jianran, then Father will now send people to the Lin family to seal her meridians, knock her out, and bring her to you so you can leave via the transmission array.

Father, it's not that I'm heartless; Father also can't bear to lose you, but this is the best solution.

Su Chen sighed and shook off the sect leader's hand.

What time is this? How could I still be thinking about that damned Lin Jianran!

Madam Su walked over, patted the sect leader's hand reassuringly, indicating she would handle it, and looked at Su Chen: "Chen'er, speak up—what do you want us to open by bringing me here?"

Su Chen stood before a floating island and looked up.

Then he silently called out in his heart: "System, stop hiding my cultivation!"

Then his aura began to surge.

First layer of the Martial Emperor Realm!

Second layer of the Martial Emperor Realm!

Ninth layer of the Martial Ancestor Realm!

His aura burst forth unrestrained, heroic and vigorous, as he declared: "Martial Venerable Realm, break for me!"
