Chapter 574

"You bullied Lin Chen for not having a strong enough background, now this seat bullies you for not having strong enough strength!"

This sentence echoed continuously in the ears of the martial artists present.

This Supreme Elder of the Canglan Sect kept his word; he was just this overbearing.

So what if he is a royal prince?

So what if he is a young master from a mysterious family with a prominent status?

Bullying my sect's disciple—regardless of background or origin—I will strike all the same.

As for the royal family's Third Prince, it goes without saying that his reputation was swept into the dust.

That mysterious Young Master Dongfang had a Sixth-Stage Innate powerhouse killed, his own clothes were torn, and his chest was pierced through... he was even more miserable than Lin Chen.

……

……

"Brother Yin, since the matter has concluded, why not come to my sect for a visit?"

Shan Hong spoke at the right moment, but Yin Wushuang shook his head: "This is a matter for my Canglan Sect, I will not add trouble to your noble sect."

Yin Wushuang's words were not a mockery of Shan Hong, but rather a consideration from the perspective of the Wan Huozong.

Shan Hong understood this as well; the reason he had not appeared earlier was precisely because he did not want the Wan Huozong to be dragged into the future turmoil.

"Let's go."

Yin Wushuang stepped to Lin Chen's side, and at this moment, Lin Chen had already stood up; the wounds on his body had already scabbed over—this physical healing ability was truly astonishing.

"Imperial Son-in-Law, then the two of us shall take our leave."

Zhuang Qiang first bowed to Yin Wushuang, then spoke to bid Lin Chen farewell; she needed to hurry back to tell the little princess and the elders about what had happened today.

"Little ones of the Flower Clan, after you return, tell Old Man Mei for me: my sect's Lin Chen serving as your Flower Clan's Imperial Son-in-Law is a profit for your Flower Clan."

Hearing Yin Wushuang's words, Zhuang Qiang's expression was somewhat strange; the "Old Man Mei" in this Senior Yin's mouth must refer to the Great Elder.

"This junior will deliver the message."

Zhuang Qiang and Zhuang Wei left; Yin Wushuang nodded to acknowledge Yin Yue. If one spoke of age, Yin Yue was naturally a junior, but if one spoke of status and position, as the Empress of the Moon Soul Clan, her status was equivalent to a Supreme Elder of the Canglan Sect.

"Many thanks to the Empress for protecting my sect's disciple."

"Senior is too polite, Lin Chen has helped me a great deal."

Because there were other martial artists present, Yin Yue did not go into too much detail.

Yin Wushuang took Lin Chen and left, and Yin Yue followed; the other martial artists around the lake did not linger either, and they bid each other farewell.

They were desperate to return to their own sects, hoping to receive guidance from their elders.

The royal family, that mysterious Young Master Dongfang, and the information revealed in the words of this Canglan Sect Supreme Elder...

As well as this great battle, all needed to be reported to their sects immediately; everyone had a premonition that the entire Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao would likely no longer be so peaceful.

……

……

A pavilion outside the Wan Huozong.

"After returning this time, I am going to enter seclusion to thoroughly absorb the energy within my clan's supreme treasure and truly step into the Myriad Phenomena Stage."

Yin Yue spoke to Lin Chen; after quelling the rebellion within her clan, the clan elders urged her to enter seclusion to reach the Myriad Phenomena Stage as soon as possible. Only when her own strength reached the Myriad Phenomena Stage could the clan be considered truly stable.

It was only because she was worried about Lin Chen being in the Thousand Layers Secret Realm that she had not entered seclusion until now, and coming out this time, she had promised the clan elders that she would begin seclusion upon returning.

"Will it take a long time?"

Hearing Yin Yue say this, Lin Chen asked out of curiosity.

"Shortest is three to five years, longest could be over ten years. After all, for a normal martial artist, going from not being Innate to stepping into Myriad Phenomena takes at least several decades; for me, needing only a few years is already very short."

Yin Yue spoke softly; because of her royal bloodline and the energy of the clan's supreme treasure, she was able to surpass the decades of cultivation of others in just a few years.

"By then, you will have surpassed me."

Lin Chen was indeed shocked; Yin Yue had not yet stepped into the Innate Stage, yet she could enter the Myriad Phenomena Stage in just a few years, or at most over ten. If this were to spread, one could only imagine how jealous the martial artists of the entire Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao would be.

"If it were anyone else, I would have that confidence, but in your case..." Yin Yue said somewhat helplessly: "That is truly hard to say."

Thinking of these short few years, Lin Chen had jumped directly from the First Innate Stage to the Fourth Innate Stage, and she knew that Lin Chen entering the Fifth and Sixth Innate Stages would not be difficult, because Lin Chen's spiritual sense had already reached the level of the Sixth Innate Stage.

Lin Chen and Yin Yue looked at each other, both smiling; both of their cultivation speeds were enough to incite the jealousy of other martial artists in the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao.

"That stone you gave me was brought back to the clan, and it actually absorbed the moon-glow energy of our clan, so I left it in the clan."

"Oscar?"

Thinking of this guy Oscar, Lin Chen was also somewhat speechless; ever since he had him turn into the shape of a stone last time, this guy had actually fallen into a deep sleep and had not woken up yet.

"Oscar?"

"A name I gave him; then let him stay in your clan for now."

"Alright." Yin Yue nodded, and finally reminded him:

"That Dongfang Canglang is not a broad-minded person; you must be careful after offending him. As for why that Third Imperial Prince of the royal family would also target you, I am not clear on that. In any case, try your best to stay in the Canglan Sect and do not go out."
