Dan Chen strolled leisurely through the silent, starry expanse of the Quiet Zone with Lu Chengfeng.
Suddenly, Lu Chengfeng pointed ahead and said, "Sect Leader Dan Chen, it's just ahead."
Dan Chen looked forward and saw three warships of the Yellow Springs Sect floating in the starry sky. Abruptly, Dan Chen's expression changed slightly. He suddenly summoned a jade pendant, which instantly appeared above Lu Chengfeng's head, emitting a powerful divine light to protect her.
"Crack!"
Before Lu Chengfeng could understand why Dan Chen had done this, a huge spatial rift suddenly tore open in the void above them. A black energy with an extremely terrifying aura shot out from the spatial rift, targeting Dan Chen and Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng's face changed slightly, but Dan Chen remained calm and unafraid. He extended a palm to meet the terrifying energy.
"Rumble!"
When the black energy touched Dan Chen's hand, powerful energy ripples swept out from Dan Chen as the center, instantly turning countless meteorites in the starry sky into nothingness. The three warships of the Yellow Springs Sect in the distance were like decayed objects, instantly destroyed completely.
An area of hundreds of millions of miles was completely vacuumed. Whether it was wraiths or cultivators, all turned into nothingness after this collision. Only Lu Chengfeng, protected by the jade pendant summoned by Dan Chen, remained safe and sound.
Lu Chengfeng witnessed this shocking collision with her own eyes, and her heart was filled with indescribable shock. Was this the power of an immortal realm expert? And it seemed to be just a casual blow, but a casual blow was enough to create such a terrifying scene. No wonder it was said that the battlefield of immortal realm experts was in the outer void. The aftermath of just this one blow, let alone the Tianxuan Minor Domain, would probably sink several nearby minor domains.
This was just a clash between True Immortals. What about those high and mighty Immortal Kings, and those Immortal Venerable experts who have suppressed the Purple Sun Great World for countless years? If they were to fight, the Purple Sun Great World would probably be shattered.
Dan Chen noticed that Lu Chengfeng beside him was in a daze, and thought she was frightened, so he said softly, "With me here, nothing will happen."
Hearing Dan Chen's voice, Lu Chengfeng instantly returned to her senses.
She shook her head and said, "I'm fine, thank you, Sect Leader Dan Chen!"
Immortal realm experts were fighting, and she was caught in an ambush. It would have been understandable if Dan Chen hadn't considered her safety at all, after all, they weren't familiar with each other. But Dan Chen had actually taken out a magic weapon to protect her, which made her feel very grateful to Dan Chen.
Although even if Dan Chen hadn't protected her, she would have been fine.
Dan Chen nodded, then looked at the void in front of him and said coldly, "Who is this villain, daring to launch a sneak attack!"
"Hmph!"
As soon as Dan Chen's voice fell, a cold snort rang out. Immediately afterwards, a person in a black robe appeared in front of them. It was actually a woman, and a beautiful woman at that. However, the aura on this woman was extremely terrifying. Just standing there, the surrounding void was constantly twisting and deforming because it couldn't bear the pressure.
"I am Huang Sang, the Sect Leader of the Yellow Springs Sect!"
The black-robed woman's tone was icy cold, and the surrounding void seemed to freeze.
Dan Chen frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Chengfeng beside him suddenly burst into laughter.
"Pfft!"
Lu Chengfeng covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes narrowed with amusement.
Dan Chen looked at Lu Chengfeng in confusion. Lu Chengfeng explained with a smile, "I'm sorry, Sect Leader Dan Chen. I usually don't laugh, but I really couldn't help it just now... Hahaha, you just said, 'Who is this villain launching a sneak attack?' and this person appeared to introduce herself. Isn't she admitting that she is a villain? Hahaha... There are even people who admit that they are villains!"
When Dan Chen heard this, he was first stunned, and then he couldn't help but laugh. He said, "She is the Sect Leader of the Yellow Springs Sect, a genuine True Immortal realm expert. In your mouth, she has become a villain."
When Lu Chengfeng heard this, she was not afraid at all. She laughed and said, "A True Immortal realm villain?"
Seeing that Lu Chengfeng had no respect for the True Immortal expert, Dan Chen nodded and said, "I like these words."
The black-robed woman Huang Sang, listening to the two of them openly labeling her a "villain" in front of her, her face became extremely cold. However, she did not immediately attack.
Huang Sang looked at Dan Chen and said coldly, "Are you the Sect Leader of the Starchen Sect?"
"Sect Leader Dan Chen, she doesn't recognize you?" Lu Chengfeng was surprised. The Starchen Sect and the Yellow Springs Sect had been enemies for who knows how many years. Logically speaking, Huang Sang couldn't possibly not recognize Dan Chen, but Huang Sang's tone and attitude clearly showed that she didn't know who Dan Chen was.
Moreover, Lu Chengfeng also felt very speechless about Huang Sang. She launched a sneak attack on someone she didn't recognize? Wasn't she afraid of provoking someone she couldn't afford to offend?
Actually, Lu Chengfeng had misunderstood Huang Sang. Huang Sang didn't recognize Dan Chen, but the Starchen Sect and the Yellow Springs Sect had been enemies for many years, so she could still sense the aura of the Starchen Sect's cultivation technique on Dan Chen. That was why she dared to launch a sneak attack, because she believed that the Starchen Sect couldn't possibly be someone she couldn't afford to offend. If that were really the case, given the animosity between the two families, the Starchen Sect would have come to her door long ago and destroyed her Yellow Springs Sect.
Moreover, Huang Sang had seen the Sect Leader of the Starchen Sect before, but it was definitely not Dan Chen, which made her feel strange.
Facing Lu Chengfeng's doubts, Dan Chen chuckled and said, "I just recently returned to the Starchen Sect, so it's normal for her not to recognize me."
Lu Chengfeng nodded. She extracted more important information from Dan Chen's words. What did "returned to the Starchen Sect" mean, and he became the Sect Leader of the Starchen Sect "not long" after? This made her very curious, but she also knew that now was not the time to ask this.
The most urgent task was to deal with the Sect Leader of the Yellow Springs Sect in front of her.
One was the Sect Leader of the Starchen Sect, and the other was the Sect Leader of the Yellow Springs Sect. The two were inherently hostile, and now that they had met, there would inevitably be a earth-shattering battle.
Huang Sang had already confirmed from the conversation between the two that Dan Chen was indeed the Sect Leader of the Starchen Sect. Although she didn't know when the Starchen Sect had changed Sect Leaders, now was not the time to pursue this issue. She didn't expect to encounter someone from the Starchen Sect in the Quiet Zone. Could it be that the Starchen Sect had seen through her plan?
Impossible, if they had really seen through it, they wouldn't have let someone with Immortal Ascension talent go to the Henglong Mountains to die. Could it be that...
Huang Sang suddenly turned her gaze to Lu Chengfeng, and recalling the matter of the three sect warships, it was obvious that this ant who spoke wildly had found out.
"It's really a slip-up, a well-thought-out plan was actually disrupted by an ant."
Huang Sang looked at Lu Chengfeng coldly. Coupled with Lu Chengfeng's ridicule of her just now, at this time, she couldn't wait to draw out Lu Chengfeng's divine soul, light the sky lantern, and torture her for tens of thousands of years.
Huang Sang's murderous gaze made Lu Chengfeng feel chills down her spine. Fortunately, the jade pendant summoned by Dan Chen could not only defend against external forces, but also defend against mental attacks. Otherwise, the murderous intent of a True Immortal level expert was not something a cultivator who had just entered the Saint realm could resist.
Dan Chen looked at Huang Sang and said lightly, "You are making a big fuss on the Henglong border, presumably to attract the attention of the high-level members of my Starchen Sect. Now, the dignified Sect Leader of the Yellow Springs Sect has come to this Quiet Zone alone. It seems that what your Yellow Springs Sect is plotting is in this Quiet Zone!"
