“Who is that?” Bu Jan’s face changed colour after hearing that cold voice. He quickly swept his eyes around the area and spread out his psychic power. He did not find anyone.
Actually, not only Bu Jan, but Zhu Yue and his wife were also the same. They shared the same feelings.
“It’s me.” Bai Chen slowly stepped forward. He appeared not so far away from Bu Jan and Zhu Yue.
Looking at Bai Chen, Bu Jan’s eyes could not help but narrow. Bai Chen looked so young. He was just a child.
“Young man, are you sticking your nose into my business?” Bu Jan asked coldly.
He regretted it almost right after he said it. He’d just realised that he could not detect Bai Chen’s level.
There were two possible reasons for that. One was that Bai Chen was stronger than him, and two, Bai Chen was concealing it with some special technique.
Bu Jan thought that it was likely to be the latter, since Bai Chen was very young, and it was impossible for him to be stronger.
A genius who could get to the tertiary earth solid level at this young age was impossible to find in this area. It would be normal in Wu Zhou, the capital city, though.
Thinking about it, Bu Jan did not regret it anymore. His facial expression was now vicious.
“Why not?” Bai Chen looked at Bu Jan emotionlessly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBu Jan raised his brows with dissatisfaction. A killing aura was emitted from his body. “It seems like you want to die.”
Zhu Yue, who had already burnt up his core, could not maintain his condition for too long. He turned to Bai Chen.
“My fellow Taoist, I don’t know your objective, but could you please step aside? I still have business to resolve with this bastard!”
Bai Chen looked at Zhu Yue. He admired his straightforwardness, but did not do anything to acknowledge it.
Instead, he shook his head and swept his arm to the side. A formless spirit qi leapt towards Zhu Yue. In the blink of an eye, the burning of his core stopped.
“T… This is…!” Zhu Yue was alarmed. His eyes widened. He looked at Bai Chen.
He had been able to feel Bai Chen’s spirit qi just now. It’d stopped the burning!
“A tertiary earth solid level!” Zhu Yue said in alarm.
To be honest, he was extremely surprised that a young man like Bai Chen could be at the tertiary earth solid level, a stage stronger than the one he was at!
The reason why Zhu Yue could tell Bai Chen’s level was because of the qi that he’d felt just now.
“W… What?!?” It was not only Zhu Yue, but also Bu Jan who was very surprised. His face could not help but turn pale. He thought about what he’d just said to Bai Chen and he started to panic.
As for the Zhu Yue’s wife, she felt the same as Zhu Yue.
“You said I wanted to die?” Bai Chen looked Bu Jan in the eye. He appeared to smile a little.
Bu Jan was only a secondary earth solid cultivator. It was impossible for Bu Jan to take him down. He was now a mere baby chick in Bai Chen’s hand.
“Ah… No… No! I was just running my mouth. No one would dare to say that to you!”
At the moment, Bu Jan was quite scared. He was afraid that Bai Chen would kill him. His reaction was the complete opposite of the one earlier.
However, it was only normal for him to be this way since he was very afraid of dying. Everyone would do the same.
“Kneel.” Bai Chen flicked his hands a little to send his silver qi towards Bu Jan.
As soon as the qi hit him, his body started to shake very violently. His face turned even paler. He suddenly knelt down as if the energy in his legs was drained.
“P…Please spare my life!” Bu Jan asked for mercy. He did not want to die.
His life was about to get better after revealing that the Zhu family owned the seal. Why would he want to die now?
“All right. I’ll spare your life,” Bai Chen said with a calm voice, as if he was emotionless.
For him, killing Bu Jan was useless since he wanted to ask Bu Jan about Han De. He did not want to attract more problems, like causing issues with the Bu family.
The Bu family was a big one. A sky soaring realm cultivator was also a part of it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, because Han De was under the Bu family’s protection, he and the Bu family would have to face each other no matter what.
“Is this true?” Bu Jan’s facial expression was one of surprise before changing to utmost happiness.
He suddenly thought of something wicked. He would report this to the family and the family would send a troop of cultivators out for Bai Chen. ‘You dared to make me beg. You won’t die peacefully!’
Bai Chen looked at Bu Jan’s face. It was not difficult to guess what Bu Jan was thinking.
However, he did not care about it. He turned to Zhu Yue. “My fellow Taoist, please leave.”
Bai Chen said this. Zhu Yue’s body could not help but tremble. He thought that maybe Bai Chen was here to help him and his family.
‘Yue, you have to live. Take Wan Er away. She has a gift. She’ll definitely become a legendary realm cultivator. When that time comes, you can come back and avenge me and the others.’ Zhu Yue could not help but think about his grandfather’s words. His grandfather was a sky soaring realm cultivator.
At that moment, his grandfather was facing three sky soaring realm cultivators to stall for time for him to run away. No one knew if he was still alive or not.
‘I’ll live!’ Zhu Yue screamed internally. He had been quite ready to die just now to let his wife and his daughter flee. He did not expect that his chance to live would come.
“Th…Thank you very much, my fellow Taoist. I, Zhu Yue, and the Zhu family will not forget this. May I know your esteemed name?” Zhu Yue suppressed his emotions and made a thanking gesture.
“My name is Bai Chen.” Bai Chen did not out too much thought into it and told him his name.
Zhu Yue did not say anything more. From the look on his face, it was obvious that he had already imprinted Bai Chen’s name into his mind. If he had a chance, he would definitely repay him. He bowed down to Bai Chen before turning to Bu Jan, looking at him with a hate-filled gaze.
“Bu Jan, one day I’ll come and take your life. I’ll destroy your family. I hope you’ll still be alive by then!”
After saying that, he took his wife and daughter away.
