Bang! Bang! Bang!
With a series of thuds, countless women from the palace lay unconscious before Chen Chang'an.
"Da Huang!"
"Are you out of your mind?"
"What are you dragging these palace maids here for?"
"Do you really think the Lord of the Great Zhou Kingdom would give something like that to a mere maid?"
Watching Da Huang tirelessly hauling people over, Chen Chang'an felt a headache coming on.
This guy—why was he so obsessed with this kind of thing?
"You don’t know shit. I’m just trying not to get caught."
"Have you even noticed how many women in this palace you’ve knocked out?"
"Speaking of which, after searching so many, have you found anything yet?" Da Huang grumbled irritably.
"Hmm… nothing so far."
"Maybe it’s not in their possession." Chen Chang'an sighed helplessly.
"Is that so?"
"Well, since we’ve already knocked them out, might as well not let them go to waste, right?"
Da Huang grinned at Chen Chang'an, his expression as lewd as could be.
There was no way Chen Chang'an didn’t know what Da Huang was thinking.
The bastard could barely twitch his ass before Chen Chang'an knew whether it was solid or runny!
"Nonsense."
"We’re here for the fetal pearl. How can you have nothing but this kind of thing on your mind?"
"No way. Absolutely not!" Chen Chang'an declared righteously.
"Look, we haven’t found the fetal pearl, and if we just leave like this, wouldn’t it be a waste?"
"I haven’t done this in years."
"Just let me have one go, alright?"
"Are we even brothers?" Da Huang sulked.
Though they were brothers, and Da Huang really hadn’t indulged in this for a long time, Chen Chang'an still couldn’t bring himself to stand by and watch.
"No. No discussion. We’re moving on to search for the fetal pearl." After a brief moment of thought, Chen Chang'an remained firm.
"Tch. Fine, I’m not going then. You go by yourself."
Da Huang plopped down on the ground, throwing a tantrum.
Seeing Da Huang’s infuriating expression, Chen Chang'an took a deep breath to calm his rising irritation.
"Listen, Da Huang, haven’t you had enough delicacies in all the time we’ve been out?"
"Have I ever let you go hungry or thirsty?"
"And now you want to eat human flesh right in front of me?"
"Aren’t you pushing it?"
"You’re the one throwing a fit?"
Though Da Huang looked like a dog, his true form was that of a qilin—a fierce divine beast.
Eating humans was nothing unusual for Da Huang. After all, he had once swallowed Chen Chang'an whole.
If not for Chen Chang'an’s unique constitution, he would’ve long since become a pile of Da Huang’s dung.
"These women are all from the Great Zhou royal family—your enemies."
"Didn’t you say it yourself? No mercy for enemies."
"So what’s wrong with me eating a few of them?"
"I’m just helping you clear obstacles." Da Huang argued indignantly.
These were the very principles Chen Chang'an had taught Chen Yunxuan. So why was it suddenly unacceptable when it came to him?
"I’m a kind-hearted man. I can’t stomach such scenes."
"Kind-hearted? Then why did you teach Chen Yunxuan to ‘cut the weeds and dig up the roots’?"
"Teaching is one thing, but I didn’t kill anyone—Chen Yunxuan did. What’s that got to do with me?"
"Is there a difference? You’re the one who told him to kill!"
"Not the same. Not the same at all. He could’ve refused me, but he didn’t. So still, not my problem."
"Chen Chang'an, you’re truly shameless!"
"You didn’t just figure that out today."
Da Huang shot Chen Chang'an a disdainful look before eyeing the unconscious women, swallowing hard.
So many… enough for a good meal.
"Really can’t eat them?"
"Da Huang, with all the delicacies you’ve had, why go for them? Are they even that tasty?"
"Just think about all the makeup and powder on them. Aren’t you afraid it’ll poison you?" Chen Chang'an said helplessly.
"My body might not be as tough as yours, but it’s still plenty resilient. No way it’ll kill me."
"Besides, it’s been so long since I’ve had any. I just want to relive the taste."
"Who says you can only eat delicacies? Can’t I have some greens once in a while?"
Greens?!
You call this greens?!
"Enough nonsense. Let’s move ahead. Chen Yunxuan’s been holding out for quite a while now."
"Oh? You’re right. That kid’s impressive—lasting this long. If he’d had proper training from the start, he might’ve been a peerless genius by now."
Da Huang spoke highly of Chen Yunxuan. Given his own strength and the countless prodigies he’d witnessed, such praise was a solid acknowledgment of Chen Yunxuan’s talent and potential.
What Chen Yunxuan lacked was a foundation built on ample resources from childhood. Otherwise, at sixteen, he wouldn’t be stuck at his current level of cultivation.
"This is terrifying!"
"Is Chen Yunxuan even human? Holding his own against two peak Transcendent Realm experts for so long without losing ground?"
"We’ve heard of geniuses surpassing their levels, but Chen Yunxuan’s on another level!"
"In the Great Zhou Kingdom—no, in the entire Northern Region—has anyone ever heard of such a prodigy?"
"I… might be ignorant, but I’ve never heard of anything like this."
Chen Yunxuan’s endurance had taken everyone by surprise.
The Liu Family members, in particular, were overwhelmed with mixed emotions. If not for that incident, if they hadn’t betrayed the Chen Family after its downfall, wouldn’t things have been different?
"He has to die!"
"If he doesn’t, none of us in the Liu Family will survive."
Though regretful, the Liu Family patriarch now wished only for Chen Yunxuan’s immediate death—only then could he rest easy.
The Lord of the Great Zhou Kingdom shared the same sentiment.
The battle’s progression had left him uneasy. He had assumed Chen Yunxuan, at only the first level of the Transcendent Realm, wouldn’t last long. Yet, the boy’s stamina was unbelievable.
"Young Master Cheng, does Chen Yunxuan show any signs of defeat?" the Lord of the Great Zhou Kingdom asked nervously.
"Uncle Liu, you answer," Cheng Yushu said indifferently.
"Yes, Young Master."
"Chen Yunxuan is remarkably strong, and his spiritual energy reserves are vast—likely a key reason for his combat prowess."
"An ordinary first-level Transcendent Realm cultivator would’ve exhausted themselves long ago."
"But Chen Yunxuan is different. Still, he won’t hold out much longer. Within twenty moves, he’ll likely start weakening." Uncle Liu analyzed.
Twenty moves?
Hearing this, the Lord of the Great Zhou Kingdom relaxed. If so, this farce would soon be over.
"Kid, you’re strong, but don’t think this level of power lets you do as you please."
"You’re still far from it."
Wei Tianfeng and Wu Yuan both had fury burning in their hearts. To be cornered by a junior in front of so many onlookers—this was a stain on their pride they could never erase!
"Is that so?"
"I don't think so!"
Chen Yunxuan sneered, then suddenly, his aura erupted with overwhelming force!
"Break—now!"
The abrupt shift left everyone stunned, even Cheng Yushu and Uncle Liu couldn't hide their shock.
"A breakthrough mid-battle?"
"This kid… he's reached the second level of the Transcendent Realm!"
