Chapter 798: Chapter 795: I will leave your corpse intact! _1
But right now, given the situation, he had absolutely no choice.
“Yang Chen, you’ve reached the end of your rope, right? You’ve got no tricks left, have you? Just submit to your death obediently!” The Envoy of the Hidden Tiger shouted, like a sudden thunderclap on a clear day.
Yang Chen’s heart was determined, and he didn’t hesitate anymore. With a hissing sound, he decisively tore the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman apart.
Immediately, the Spirit Talisman burned, and Yang Chen’s body disappeared in place.
“Humph!” The Envoy of the Hidden Tiger’s expression turned cold, only realizing that something flashed before him, and when he looked back, Yang Chen had vanished.
Where was the person?
Not only was the person gone, even his Qi couldn’t be detected, and nothing could be found. It was as if Yang Chen had suddenly vanished, evaporating into thin air.
Naturally, the Envoy of the Hidden Tiger didn’t think Yang Chen had evaporated. The other party must have used some means!
When they couldn’t find Yang Chen, the Envoy of the Hidden Tiger felt an overwhelming anger, with rage surging in his chest like a tidal wave. He roared in fury, “Yang Chen, I swear I’ll kill you!”
Time and again, Yang Chen had escaped, which made him feel ashamed.
How could he not be furious? He longed to disembowel Yang Chen with a thousand cuts!
As for Yang Chen, after using the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel talisman, he appeared directly at a location thousands of miles away, just like the name of the talisman suggested.
Yang Chen felt somewhat dazed and confused himself. This was his first time using the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman, and he was only half-knowing about its effects and didn’t understand it thoroughly.
Looking at it now, the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman didn’t disappoint him, and it had a very good effect.
His current location should be thousands of miles away!
“Although a thousand miles is nothing for a martial artist at the True Martial Realm, and it would only take about a hundred breaths of time, teleporting thousands of miles away in an instant is still no ordinary feat. As long as I’m not facing an especially powerful Earth Martial Realm, this Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman can save my life.” Yang Chen couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
Of course, even though he knew the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman could save his life, Yang Chen hadn’t lost his basic calmness.
“I need to change my location quickly and not let the Envoy of the Hidden Tiger catch up with me again.” Yang Chen quickly left the area.
He was well aware that the crisis was not yet over.
As Yang Chen walked, he stared at the path ahead with a solemn expression and deep thoughts, “My whereabouts might be closely monitored by the Fire Essence Beast. The fact that the Fire Essence Beast hasn’t taken action means they still have concerns and dare not make a move. That’s the only good news for me so far. If the Fire Essence Beast takes action, my chances of survival will be slim, and my only option would be to go to the Tiandu Divine Country.”
Yang Chen sighed quietly. Things hadn’t reached the worst point yet, but he knew that his current situation was far from ideal.
He only had one Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman left. Without it, even he would be at a loss for what to do.
“Although the Fire Essence Beasts won’t show themselves, it’s clear that they will try their best to expose my location. Going anywhere is unsafe for me now.” Yang Chen clenched his fist, “Moreover, my Face Changing Technique might not be effective, either. Even if I were to change my appearance now, I’d be doing it right under the eyes of the Fire Essence Beasts, and it wouldn’t make a difference.”
For the first time, Yang Chen was so troubled.
In the past, whenever he encountered an enemy, he could calmly deal with and respond to them.
However, this time his opponent was too strong, and many things caught him off guard!
“The root of all this lies in the Fire Essence Beast. My best course of action right now is to leave the Second Floor. Whether I’m successful or not, I have to give it a try.” Yang Chen wasn’t confident in his heart, but he had no other choice, so he headed straight for the Second Floor.
Yang Chen knew that under the surveillance of the Fire Essence Beasts, the chance of him leaving the Second Floor was slim. His actions could only be considered a gamble, and clearly, just as he initially thought, there was no way the Fire Essence Beasts would let him leave the Second Floor so easily when they had such a great opportunity to kill him!
On his way to the Second Floor, Yang Chen encountered an acquaintance.
This acquaintance was none other than Han Zheng from Ling Nvzong!
The refined young man was standing there, confronting Yang Chen directly. Both of them stopped in their tracks and stared at each other.
Although Yang Chen didn’t have a good impression of Han Zheng, he didn’t have the time to argue with him now. He could only say, “So it’s Brother Han Zheng, what a coincidence.”
“A coincidence? I don’t think so. I’ve been looking for you for a long time, Brother Yang Chen!” Han Zheng said calmly.
Yang Chen narrowed his eyes, his expression suddenly turning cold: “What do you mean?”
“Don’t you know, Yang Chen? Haha, I don’t know who you’ve offended, but someone’s been spreading your whereabouts all over the Secret Realm now. Yang Chen, Han Zheng has no grievances against you, so I’m not very interested in your life or death. Just hand over the treasures you got from the Second Floor obediently, and I’ll spare your life!” Han Zheng said coldly, as if he could control Yang Chen’s fate.
To that, Yang Chen replied with a puzzled look: “I didn’t get any treasures from the Second Floor.”
“Yang Chen, do you think I’ll believe that? Everyone knows about this, so what’s the point of you hiding it? The biggest beneficiary of the Second Floor should be you, Yang Chen!” Han Zheng said in a deep voice.
As Yang Chen furrowed his brow in confusion, he began to wonder what was going on.
With his intellect, he quickly figured out what was happening.
“So that’s how it is. The Fire Essence Beasts are spreading my whereabouts everywhere, and they have pinned the blame on me, making me a target for all the martial artists on the Second Floor. This rumour has spread like wildfire, and by now, everyone probably believes it. Indeed, that’s how people are. The Fire Essence Beasts are the troublemakers behind all this. As soon as they hear about a treasure, they forget even the most basic skepticism.” Yang Chen had more or less figured out what was happening.
He felt chilled to the bone.
That humans could be played by a few demonic beasts was simply astonishing; especially in the case of Han Zheng, who didn’t even bother to verify the accuracy of the news before obstructing him.
Yang Chen’s heart burned with anger.
He couldn’t defeat the Envoy of the Hidden Tiger, but did Han Zheng think the same?
Did they all think they could treat Yang Chen like a pushover?
At this point, Yang Chen didn’t want to argue anymore. His eyes filled with coldness, he said, “So, Brother Han Zheng, are you saying you can kill me anytime?”
“Yang Chen, I admit you are cunning. At least accomplishing something like completely conquering the Trial Tower at the Origin Martial Realm is something that even I find hard to do. However, what’s the point of that? You’ve entered the True Martial Realm for too short a time, and there’s still a gap between us. What’s more, your background and mine have significant differences, causing you to be inferior in many ways. Face the reality and hand over the treasure obediently, I can at least leave you a whole corpse!” Han Zheng spoke from a high position, filled with contempt.
