Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3827: Discarded

“City lord Tan Yu, it’s not just senior Illusionary Ancestor that you have to thank this time. You also need to thank senior Warring. After all, senior Warring came here specially to rescue you,” Jian Chen said to Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was calm. He quickly bowed and thanked senior Warring. His face was filled with the gratitude of being saved.

“No need to thank me. Although I came here because of you, I didn’t do anything in the process of rescuing you. The person you should thank the most is Yang Yutian. If he had not stood forward at the critical moment, you probably would not have been able to avoid death,” the Warring Old Freak said directly. He was well aware that they were originally planning to give up on Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. After all, they had to gather the soul essence and could not spare the effort to save him. Otherwise, it could have very easily ruined the entire operation.

If the Illusionary Ancestor had not changed her mind because of Jian Chen, using a forbidden technique to temporarily recover her peak strength, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu would have never been saved.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was secretly startled. He subconsciously looked towards Jian Chen who stood on the side.

“City lord Tan Yu, there’s no need to be so polite between us,” Jian Chen said with a smile before he could say anything.

Afterwards, Jian Chen bade farewell to the Warring Old Freak and the Illusionary Ancestor, leaving with the feeble Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

Watching Jian Chen leave, a strange light flickered through the Illusionary Ancestor’s eyes. She dazedly stared in the direction that Jian Chen had vanished.

The Warring Old Freak silently observed the Illusionary Ancestor’s expression on the side as he sank into his thoughts.

By now, Jian Chen and Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had already departed from the region of space where the Starflame Demon Lion had perished completely. They hurried through the sea of stars at an extremely great speed.

“Fellow Yang Yutian, where are we headed? This doesn’t seem to be the direction of the Conquering Judgement Heaven.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu looked at Jian Chen in confusion.

From beginning to end, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had never underestimated Jian Chen. He knew he was a powerful figure with the ability to deal with a Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt like the Space-purging Ancestor.

In particular, ever since the Illusionary Ancestor killed the Starflame Demon Lion, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu became even more unwilling to underestimate Jian Chen. At this moment, he even showed the tendency of following Jian Chen’s lead.

“Oh right, fellow Yang Yutian, who was that Illusionary Ancestor just now? Her strength makes the bottom of my heart tremble,” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu continued to ask. He was very curious about her identity.

“The Illusionary Ancestor is no regular expert. She’s the second ancestor of the Waymight clan. She has already reached the peak of the Eighth Heavenly Layer, only a step away from the Ninth Heavenly Layer,” Jian Chen said with deep emotion.

“What? The second ancestor of the Waymight clan?” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was deeply shocked, not by how powerful the Illusionary Ancestor was, but because her origins were far too impressive.

After all, the Waymight clan was well and truly a Grand Exalt’s clan. They had already surpassed the other courts of heaven.

It went without saying just how extraordinary her status was as the second ancestor of a Grand Exalt’s clan.

“City lord Tan Yu, I must trouble you momentarily. Please enter this divine hall for a moment.” At this moment, Jian Chen suddenly stopped and took out a medium quality divine hall.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was doubtful, but he realised that Jian Chen was doing this for a particular reason when he saw his seriousness. As such, he stopped hesitating and entered the medium quality god artifact divine hall decisively.

Ever since he survived the encounter with the Starflame Demon Lion, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu completely trusted Jian Chen. He completely set aside all of his vigilance towards him.

With his life saved twice by him, what could he not let go of for him?

Jian Chen stowed away the medium quality god artifact divine hall before pushing the Laws of Space to the limit. He rushed through the vast outer space aimlessly like a headless fly.

After he crossed who knew how many galaxies, Jian Chen suddenly stopped, perhaps because he felt like he was far away enough. With a flip of his hand, a talisman appeared.

The talisman had been given to him by the Illusionary Ancestor, possessing the power of a strike of her primary body. Once activated, even someone as powerful as the Warring Old Freak would not be able to withstand it. Even if they scraped by, they would be left half dead.

However, Jian Chen did not have any interest in keeping such a precious talisman. He threw it away without hesitation before teleporting away with the Laws of Space. He did not even look back at it.

After teleporting, Jian Chen used the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race to erase his presence while activating the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. He turned completely invisible, vanishing from the world without any trace or presence remaining.

Just like that, he maintained the absolute concealment of the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race and the Divine Armour of Heavenflight as he travelled towards the Conquering Judgement Heaven.

Meanwhile, the talisman he discarded hovered in outer space, radiating with energy and pressure.

Around a minute later, a figure in black appeared near the talisman. It was the second ancestor of the Waymight clan, the Illusionary Ancestor!

Looking at the talisman floating in outer space that had clearly been discarded, the Illusionary Ancestor was stunned at first before slowly becoming angry. Her anger intensified. She seemed extremely mad.

There was no killing intent. There was no seething rage. She just seemed very angry.

“This kid actually discarded the thing I gave him. Don’t tell me he doesn’t realise just how precious this talisman is? In the Immortals’ World, even if most Immortal Exalts kneel down and beg, they can’t obtain a copy, yet he’s just discarded it like this?”

The Illusionary Ancestor stowed the talisman away with a sunken face. Her anger did not dissipate. She swept through the surrounding space. A peering light flickered in her eyes. She merged with the world and resonated with the ways as if she wanted to find Jian Chen’s traces with her great cultivation.

However, her efforts resulted in nothing.

“He sure hid well. I didn’t realise that this kid was even capable of something like this. He can actually even reach the level of fooling me.” The anger in the Illusionary Ancestor’s eyes slowly vanished as she calmed down. She murmured, “Don’t tell me he knows there’s my soul imprint in the talisman, which is why he’s afraid to keep it?”

The Illusionary Ancestor’s expression changed before she looked at the vast sea of stars. She sighed gently and said to herself, “Though, I’m more curious about exactly who you are. Why do you give me a very strange feeling whenever I see you?”

“In particular, when you were eager to rescue that person, throwing yourself into the mouth of the Starflame Demon Lion without any regard for your personal safety, I actually felt worried at that moment…”

“Yang Yutian, looks like I need to properly investigate you…”

As the Illusionary Ancestor murmured to herself, she suddenly looked in the direction of the Hall Brilliance Heaven. In the next moment, she suddenly vanished.

In the vast sea of stars, the Warring Old Freak dressed in his simple, coarse clothes strode through the air, making his way back to the Hall Brilliance Heaven.

He did not use his full strength, instead making his way back by strolling. As a result, he was much slower than when he came.

“Why does the Illusionary Ancestor treat him so differently? Just what aspect of this kid makes him unique?” On the way back, the Warring Old Freak constantly recalled how differently the Illusionary Ancestor had treated him. He was very puzzled.

Suddenly, the Warring Old Freak stopped and stared ahead in complete surprise.

The Illusionary Ancestor stood silently in front of him, blocking the Warring Old Freak’s path.
