at least she did not seem intent on killing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the strength of Lin Chen and Shang Wenyin was not lacking, to her, they were easily extinguishable and there was absolutely no need to falsely placate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sky Array Flag swept through, and the war slaves who had finished their battles took their spoils of war and once again disappeared within the Array Banner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From beginning to end, none of these war slaves uttered a single word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching these disappearing war slaves, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Chen’s mind, startling him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that the old lady handled manipulating the war slaves quite adeptly, could it be she might also find a way to turn their group into war slaves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of the state of these war slaves, unable to control their own actions, Lin Chen shivered with cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, although I also create war slaves, I’m particular about my choices, and not just anyone will do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your strength is excellent among your peers, but to be my war slaves, you’re not qualified yet,” said the old lady’s voice, reaching Lin Chen’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head and met the old lady’s profound gaze, as if seeing through all the thoughts in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, “Senior’s strength is so formidable, probably among the Quasi-Saints, where would you need a strength like mine, wouldn’t that just hold you back?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quasi-Saint, hmph!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady snorted coldly, her gaze inscrutable, making it unclear what her emotions were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of her hand, the Array Banners once again returned to her grasp, and she casually summoned a small flying boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come, you control the flying boat, and head west,” she commanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen silently nodded, picked up Yue Chengtian and boarded the flying boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Shang Wenyao was about to activate a Magical Treasure to cover her face, the old lady’s voice calmly interrupted, “No need to cover it, just like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a beautiful face, covering it is simply a waste.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shang Wenyao’s hand paused for a moment, then silently lowered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This face of mine has attracted many troubles; I cover it only wishing not to invite issues…” she explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now that you’re with me, there’s no need to cover it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there’s anyone bold enough to cause trouble, kill them,” the old lady said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shang Wenyao’s eyes brightened, and she obediently lowered her hand, gratefully responding, “Thank you, Senior!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen had worried that with the old lady’s quirky character, upon seeing Shang Wenyao’s face which could be considered perfect, she might become jealous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, a woman’s most common feeling towards a more beautiful woman is not appreciation, but envy—wishing to completely destroy the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the old lady’s tone, it seemed she actually appreciated Shang Wenyao’s beauty?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, how may I address you?” Lin Chen asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady replied coldly, “You’ve probably cursed me in your heart as an ‘old witch’ plenty of times, haven’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen felt incredibly awkward, “Although Senior’s actions have left me at a loss for words and will probably cause me great trouble, I still hold immeasurable admiration for your strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are a million divine powers in the world, and among them, those involving time and space are the most mysterious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even rarer are those who wield Time Divine Abilities; Senior truly counts as one of the rare powerhouses of the world…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady turned to look at Lin Chen and asked calmly, “You sure have a way with words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is your Innate Divine Power?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t hesitate and candidly replied, “Five Elements Great Escape.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady was momentarily taken aback, “That’s quite rare, interesting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “My master had the same comment when he first met me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady waved her hand dismissively, “You probably can’t return to the Dragon Mountain Sect anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From now on, follow me…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>you’ll either rise to prominence or die without a grave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her words were filled with an irrepressible domineering spirit, and it was clear that this was her final decision, leaving no room for Lin Chen’s choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen had no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen bitterly smiled, “I came from a small place to begin with, all alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, I’ve offended countless and killed not a few, but I can face all that squarely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, I’m not a bigshot or from any noteworthy background, so I take each day as it comes, with no regrets.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For someone as capable as Senior to see potential in me, allowing me to follow, that’s my fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Master Floating Cloud has been kind to me, and if my actions bring trouble to him and the Dragon Mountain Sect, I would feel guilty, obstructing my Dao heart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, may I have your permission to record a message to my master, severing our ties, so he does not suffer on my account…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old lady scoffed, “You do value loyalty quite highly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re afraid of implicating him, but aren’t you afraid of dying yourself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen responded with a carefree laugh, “When I was still a mortal, I was a soldier, fighting on the battlefield, protecting my homeland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life and death, I viewed indifferently.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the Cultivation World, the strong ones rule; thrones are built atop white bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who fear death often meet it, while those who do not may find a glimmer of survival…”\u003C\u002Fp>",995,"2026-06-06T01:52:37.938Z",1,"novelbin.me","111a131dc2ca464dd9222eed0ae7e4fc155bfd5df0eb314288fd134627a5664c","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2579","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2577",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
