Chapter 532: The Power of the Phenomenon

The two martial artists from the Medicine King Valley felt uncontrollable anger and fear upon seeing the corpse of their Young Valley Master.

This time, when the Young Valley Master came to the Qianji Sect, the Valley Master's mission for them was to go to Qianji City and await the Young Valley Master's orders.

Therefore, they had watched the entire process of the Young Valley Master participating in the alchemy competition and knew that the Young Valley Master had lost to Xiao Yan. Not long ago, the Young Valley Master had ordered them to keep a close watch on Xiao Yan's whereabouts, so they had been keeping a close watch on the entrance and exit of the Qianji Sect.

When they confirmed that Xiao Yan had left the city, they immediately sent a message to the Young Valley Master outside the city using a special method.

They had originally thought that if the Young Valley Master and Xiao Yan met, he wouldn't suffer any losses, and it was possible that Xiao Yan would be severely taught a lesson by the Young Valley Master.

Both were at the Innate Third Stage, but the techniques the Young Valley Master practiced were all powerful techniques personally selected for him by the Valley Master. This Xiao Yan had been a nobody before the alchemy competition and would definitely not be the Young Valley Master's match.

In order to let the Young Valley Master vent his anger properly, the two of them had specifically only used spiritual sense to lock onto him and did not rush to his side immediately.

But what they hadn't expected was that Xiao Yan and the Young Valley Master had only met face-to-face before Xiao Yan took the initiative to attack the Young Valley Master. What shocked them even more was that the Young Valley Master hadn't even lasted a single exchange before dying.

Even though they rushed over immediately, they were still ten-plus breaths too late.

The Young Valley Master had died; the Valley Master would inevitably be furious.

If they couldn't capture this Xiao Yan and take him back to be handed over to the Valley Master for punishment, what awaited them would be the Valley Master's severe punishment.

Their families and descendants were all in the Medicine King Valley. If they were afraid of punishment and didn't return to the Medicine King Valley, all their relatives at home would be killed. And even if they could abandon all their family members, based on the medicinal poison the Valley Master had planted in them, if they didn't take the antidote on time, their whole bodies would suffer inhuman torture.

Now, the only way to make the Valley Master spare their lives was to capture this Xiao Yan.

The two of them didn't even have time to collect the Young Valley Master's corpse before chasing in the direction Xiao Yan had fled, which they had sensed with their spiritual sense earlier.

One after another, three streaks of red light moved rapidly across the territory of the Qianji Domain.

Half an hour later.

Lin Chen sighed in his heart. Although his spiritual sense was comparable to the Innate Sixth Stage and he had the bonus of the Immortal Scripture, his current speed was only barely on par with those two Innate Fourth Stage martial artists, and he couldn't shake them off.

If he couldn't escape, he could only fight a hard battle.

The moment he left the city, Lin Chen had sensed two strands of spiritual sense locking onto him, and he could even judge that the other party were Innate Fourth Stage powerhouses. He just didn't know the origin of these two Innate Fourth Stage powerhouses until he saw Jiang Jinwu Yaoyan, at which point he had an epiphany.

Lin Chen had already seen Jiang Jinwu Yaoyan's temperament at the alchemy competition; he was a narrow-minded person. This was because he was dissatisfied with Lin Chen taking first place and had specifically sent people to watch him.

Lin Chen didn't believe that Jiang Jinwu Yaoyan sending people to watch him was just as simple as trying to regain face.

Since that was the case, he could only strike first.

Killing Jiang Jinwu Yaoyan meant the two Innate Fourth Stage martial artists behind him would inevitably chase him; this was within Lin Chen's expectations. And going all out to escape was also a test by Lin Chen of these two Innate Fourth Stage martial artists.

In terms of speed, these two hadn't been able to surpass him, and speed wasn't even his strongest point.

This battle was not impossible to fight.

"You brat, daring to kill the Young Valley Master of my Medicine King Valley, you deserve to die!"

The two Innate Fourth Stage martial artists saw that Lin Chen had actually stopped, and their faces showed joy, followed by a roar.

The reason they were so happy was that for the past half hour, the two of them had become more and more shocked the longer they chased.

In the Innate Realm, the strength gap between each stage was huge. Originally, in their view, it would only take a few breaths to catch up to this Xiao Yan, but they hadn't expected that after half an hour, they were still maintaining a certain distance from this Xiao Yan.

An Innate Third Stage martial artist being able to escape for half an hour under their pursuit—I'm afraid no one would believe it if they heard it.

And seeing Lin Chen stop, they both had a common thought: this Xiao Yan must have used some kind of escape technique earlier to have such speed, and such techniques were generally at the cost of crazily burning blood essence or the innate liquid within the body. Lin Chen stopping wasn't because he didn't want to run anymore, but because he had no energy left to run. ===== CHAPTER 533 =====
