Chapter 588: Misty Cloud Palace's Response

~10 min read 1,881 words

Yan Ran stared at Lin Chen, unable to tell if Lin Chen really knew or was just saying it on purpose, wanting to make him lose his composure.

The Imperial Family didn't know what the reward for the Invincible Arena was either.

But if it was intentional, once he held back and didn't move, and Lin Chen couldn't produce real evidence, then there would be no turning back.

Was Lin Chen such a crazy person?

The Imperial Family had investigated Lin Chen's past in detail and could be sure that Lin Chen was not such a crazy person. He would never put himself in a position where he couldn't turn back just to force him to lose his composure.

So Lin Chen really knew the little-known past of the founder of the Misty Cloud Palace.

After thinking this through, Yan Ran still didn't intend to speak. He wanted to see what Lin Chen could say. Some secrets, as long as many people know them, even if only the elders inside the Misty Cloud Palace know them, they will also spread. He just needed to bite this point.

Thinking of these, the trace of panic in Yan Ran's heart disappeared, replaced by a sneer.

"Really planning to be shameless to the end."

Lin Chen also captured the sneer on Yan Ran's face, and he could guess what the other party was probably thinking in his heart. It was nothing more than continuing to be shameless after he told the secret of the founder of the Misty Cloud Palace.

It's a pity that the secret he told, I'm afraid it can't be shameless.

"Senior, your sect's founder once left a jade stele in the sect. This junior knows what is written on this jade stele."

"What did you say?"

The old woman's expression changed after Lin Chen said "jade stele": "Do you know what is written on that jade stele?"

"Yes, after this junior fought with your sect's founder, I luckily saw a period of your sect's founder's experience. This includes the scene of your sect's founder carving words on the jade stele."

"Is this true?"

The old woman stared at Lin Chen tightly, and Lin Chen nodded heavily: "Absolutely no false words."

"Good, then tell me, what is written on the jade stele?"

Lin Chen transmitted his voice to the old woman. After more than ten breaths, the old woman said: "If what you said is true, this old woman can prove for you that you really met the founder."

The old woman's words made many martial artists at the scene confused. It was clear that Lin Chen had already transmitted the content to this Misty Cloud Palace elder. Couldn't the truth be proven on the spot?

"The jade stele left by the founder is hidden in the forbidden area of my sect, and no one has seen it so far. Even this old woman doesn't know what is written on the jade stele?"

The Misty Cloud Palace elder seemed to notice the confusion of the martial artists at the scene and directly explained: "My sect's founder once left an oral instruction that unless someone who knows the content of the jade stele appears, no one is allowed to approach the jade stele."

"Really or fake?"

A martial artist at the scene questioned, and an old man said: "Could it be that your sect's founder could calculate that someone in later generations would know the content on the jade stele?"

"The Misty Cloud Palace is not good at deduction techniques. Is it possible that your sect's founder once told the content of the jade stele to a certain person, but did not tell the sect disciples, the purpose is to let the descendants of the person who knows the content, if they encounter trouble or other situations, go to the Misty Cloud Palace for help."

Some martial artists raised questions, and some martial artists gave guesses, and they were all Fifth-Stage Innate powerful figures. Lin Chen scanned these martial artists who questioned and guessed, and he also understood in his heart that these people were probably all related to the Imperial Family.

Of course, it is also possible that they just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to please the Imperial Family. After all, as long as they are not stupid, they can also see that the Imperial Family is targeting him.

"It's really ridiculous."

Just before Lin Chen could refute, the Misty Cloud Palace old woman couldn't help it first, with anger on her face: "If the words on the jade stele were told to someone, just to let their descendants get a protection from my Misty Cloud Palace in the future, then why didn't the founder tell the disciples clearly? Is it necessary to be so complicated?"

In the old woman's view, these people's guesses and questions were disrespectful to the founder.

If the founder really wanted to get a protection for the descendants of a certain friend, with the founder's prestige, she only needed to leave an oral instruction in the sect. Which descendant disciple would dare not obey? Why bother to be so mysterious.

"That's not clear. Many powerful figures have some special hobbies. This old man's words are not disrespectful to your sect's founder, just talking about the matter. Who dares to guarantee that this Lin Chen is not a descendant of the martial artist who encountered the content left by your sect's founder, and learned about this from the other party, or killed to seize the treasure... This situation is not uncommon in the martial arts world."

At the end, the questioning martial artist even sneered. Although most martial artists at the scene felt that this possibility was too small, it could not be ruled out. It was possible that Lin Chen knew about this a long time ago and took advantage of this opportunity to say it.

"There is no such possibility!"

The Misty Cloud Palace elder shouted sharply: "The forbidden area where the jade stele is stored, besides the founder ordering disciples not to approach, was also arranged by a formation master of the Thousand Machines Sect. To open the formation, unless you know the content of the jade stele, even a Myriad Phenomena Stage powerful figure cannot break in."

"As for why our sect's founder knew that someone would be able to know the content in the jade stele later, it was because she once asked a senior of the Thousand Machines Sect to calculate a hexagram at that time. This matter is also recorded in the Thousand Machines Sect, which should be able to be compared."

The Misty Cloud Palace elder had already said this, so it must not be fake.

"That's really strange. What is the purpose of your sect's founder arranging this?"

After a long while, a strange voice came from the crowd. The Misty Cloud Palace elder looked at it with sharp eyes for the first time: "Why, the secret of my Misty Cloud Palace needs to be told to you? What are you!"

These words were already very heavy. The middle-aged man in the crowd turned red. As a Fourth-Stage Innate martial artist, when had he ever been scolded like this?

But the other party was an elder of the Misty Cloud Palace, standing behind the entire Misty Cloud Palace, one of the twenty-four super sects of the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao. He really didn't dare to offend the other party completely.

Speculation...

It was the common idea of many martial artists at the scene who questioned. As for whether Lin Chen cheated, it didn't matter to them at all.

……

"Since you all doubt, this old woman will not hide it. Lin Chen just told this old woman that the founder left four words on the jade stele: 'Matter of Course'. This old woman will return to the sect to check now. If it is really these four words, anyone who doesn't believe it can come to my Misty Cloud Palace to verify at any time."

Hearing the words of the Misty Cloud Palace elder, Yan Ran's expression became ugly for the first time, and he asked with a gloomy face: "Is your Excellency going to guarantee for Lin Chen?"

This was the first time that Yan Ran's tone carried a trace of threat, and it was also because he couldn't sit still. The attitude of this Misty Cloud Palace elder was too strange.

This matter should have nothing to do with the Misty Cloud Palace. As an elder of the Misty Cloud Palace, it was impossible not to see that the Imperial Family was targeting Lin Chen. If she didn't want to be involved, she could completely shirk it off, but this elder seemed to be unaware and willing to wade into this muddy water.

"If the content on the jade stele is the same as what Lin Chen said, not only this old woman, but my entire Misty Cloud Palace is willing to guarantee for what Lin Chen said."

Facing the threat in Yan Ran's words, the Misty Cloud Palace elder did not have any hesitation, and the answer given made the entire square of martial artists in an uproar.

The meaning of the Misty Cloud Palace elder's words was to harden against the Imperial Family together with Lin Chen. This was to intervene.

The prestige of the Imperial Family is undoubtedly the strongest in the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao, but the Canglan Sect and the Flower Clan can say that because they have a close relationship with Lin Chen, what they say cannot be used as evidence.

But now, a super sect like the Misty Cloud Palace, which has no relationship with Lin Chen, uses the reputation of the entire sect to guarantee for Lin Chen. If the Imperial Family continues to be so arrogant, it is a bit unreasonable.

Yan Ran's face was gloomy enough to drip water at this moment. Following the Canglan Sect, now this Misty Cloud Palace actually did not give him any face at all.

This is human nature!

When the Imperial Family was prosperous, they commanded the entire Yan Yan Huang Chao. Which of these super sects dared not obey? But now, they all have other ideas.

"Good, then this king will wait for you to bring back the final news."

Yan Ran's voice carried a trace of anger. He thought more. The Misty Cloud Palace elder did not give him face like this, not to help Lin Chen, but very likely to express his position to the Dongfang family.

The Misty Cloud Palace elder didn't answer at all and directly exited the Heaven-Reaching Tower square.

"Lin Chen, what intersection do you have with the Misty Cloud Palace in private?"

Teng Wangshan's voice transmission came, and Lin Chen also couldn't help but ask. The tough attitude of this Misty Cloud Palace elder toward the Imperial Family also surprised him.

Guarantee for Lin Chen, offend the Imperial Family! ===== CHAPTER 589 =====

Teng Wangshan also couldn't help but send a voice transmission to ask Lin Chen; the tough attitude this Elder of the Piao Miao Yungong displayed toward the Imperial Family made him somewhat surprised as well.

To testify for Lin Chen, offending the Imperial Family!
