CHAPTER 833: CHAPTER 833: THANK YOU

Ling Chen’s body was just suspended in midair.

As Ling Chen died, the binding power of the Life-taking Secret Technique gradually dissipated.

"You brought this upon yourself!"

Looking at Ling Chen’s body, Qi Tianyan’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Although Ling Chen forced him to reveal his trump card early, killing Ling Chen was enough to wash away the previous humiliation for their Hidden Sect.

Moreover, Mu Qingzhou might not know about this scene.

Even if he knew Ling Chen was killed, he might not know it was by him.

His gaze turned towards the void.

As if seeing through the Void Realm, reaching into the State Governor Mansion.

Of course, if the Lord Governor personally informed Mu Qingzhou, he would have no way out.

"Next, I need a good period of recuperation!"

Qi Tianyan secretly thought to himself.

Using this technique had not been without cost to him.

Especially to his Divine Soul.

"Finally dead!"

Gu Wenzhao and other Hidden Sect disciples were incredibly excited.

Ling Chen was too terrifying.

A mere ten-star emperor forced them almost to a dead end.

They were eleven-star emperors!

If not for Qi Tianyan, they might really have died.

In the State Governor Mansion.

The heads of the Qin Family and the Chen Family, along with other strong figures, watched the slowly descending body in the light screen, eyes filled with the brilliance of avenged grudges.

If it weren’t for the State Governor being present, they couldn’t help but celebrate!

This calamity Ling Chen was finally dead!

Mu Qing also looked at Ling Chen’s body, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.

"It seems this time the title of first prodigy will fall on Qi Tianyan!"

Mu Qing sighed softly.

He could sense the true power of the technique Qi Tianyan used.

Absolutely not something an Emperor Realm cultivator could resist.

Ling Chen couldn’t withstand it.

Nor could Mu Qingzhou.

"How could this happen?"

The Eastern Domain Lord Liu Xiao was full of disbelief.

He couldn’t believe that Ling Chen was killed by such a bizarre method.

"Domain Lord Liu, my condolences!"

The Domain Lord of the Southwest Central Three Domains looked at Liu Xiao.

They thought the East Domain would have a supreme prodigy emerge this time.

However, who would have thought he would fall at the hands of Hidden Sect disciples?

This Hidden Sect is indeed terrifyingly abnormal!

"Ling Chen, how could you die?"

The Divine Bird Qingluan Xiao Qing stared at the body in the light screen.

It couldn’t believe someone as gifted as Ling Chen could have a day of demise.

Even though Ling Chen’s talent was not as great as its own, his strength surpassed that of a spirit beast with a Divine Beast Bloodline!

"Chen Er..."

Ling Tianxing was tearful, filled with overwhelming sorrow.

"Ling Chen actually died in the Void Realm; this is somewhat problematic."

Xiao Qian’s eyes turned slightly cold.

The Mystic Sword was within Ling Chen’s inner world.

Yet, he couldn’t enter the Void Realm at all.

"It seems I’ll have to make a deal with the Hidden Sect."

Xiao Qian had already made up his mind.

Although Ling Chen’s Mystic Sword was mysterious, there were probably very few who could wield it.

As a member of the Howling Moon Sky Wolf clan, the Heavenly Destiny Sect should not dare to offend them.

Though the Heavenly Destiny Sect is powerful, it is ultimately a Hidden Sect.

Hidden Sects usually choose seclusion after significant losses to preserve their power.

The difference is more than just a little bit compared to major powers like theirs.

In the Void Realm.

Seeing Ling Chen’s falling speed getting faster and faster, Qi Tianyan did not intervene, and the smile on his face grew.

He wanted to let Ling Chen’s body fall.

To make him die without an intact corpse.

As for the treasures in Ling Chen’s inner world, he certainly intended to claim them.

However, although Ling Chen was dead, his inner world remained very stable.

Ling Wu, inside Ling Chen’s inner world, also sensed something was wrong.

She felt the binding force of Ling Chen’s inner world weaken significantly.

"Brother, what’s happening to you?"

A sense of unease rose in her heart, and she asked in a trembling voice.

But there was no response.

Ling Wu’s fear grew.

She could clearly sense that Ling Chen’s inner world no longer confined her.

She could break out of this small world from inside at any moment.

But she dared not.

If she did, Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power Cultivation would be gone.

Without certainty, how could she act recklessly?

"Brother, don’t scare me!"

"Brother, say something!"

...

She repeatedly asked, but there was never any response.

Ling Chen’s body was only thirty zhang from the ground.

At that moment, Ling Chen’s speed reached a terrifying level.

A mere thirty zhang could be crossed in almost a single breath.

Qi Tianyan seemed to have already visualized the scene of Ling Chen crashing into the ground.

At such a great height, even if Ling Chen’s body was strong, he would definitely be smashed into a heap of meat!

"Huh?"

In the State Governor Mansion, Mu Qing’s eyebrows knitted together, a bit of joy briefly flashing across his face.

A Jade Scroll appeared in his hand.

It was Ling Chen’s Soul Jade!

According to reason, since Ling Chen was dead, this Soul Jade should have shattered.

However, it hadn’t.

In the Void Realm.

The anticipated, earth-shaking crash Qi Tianyan awaited did not happen.

Ling Chen’s body was suspended just three chi above the ground.

"What?!"

Qi Tianyan was dumbfounded.

He could no longer feel any sign of life from Ling Chen.

Ling Chen was already definitely dead.

Additionally, everyone here was his people.

No one had come to Ling Chen’s rescue.

But, the fact Ling Chen hadn’t fallen was utterly unbelievable.

Gu Wenzhao and others also widened their eyes, full of disbelief, as if seeing a ghost.

The eerie scene rendered the State Governor Mansion eerily silent.

No one had imagined that Ling Chen’s body would pull off such a spectacle!

"Who’s there?"

Qi Tianyan shouted, and Divine Soul Telekinesis swept the surroundings.

Unfortunately, no other presence was detected.

"Qi Tianyan, thank you!"

A voice suddenly came from the ground.

"Ling Chen?"

Qi Tianyan’s pupils contracted.

He coldly stared at Ling Chen.

That voice was all too familiar.

Undoubtedly Ling Chen’s voice.

How could Ling Chen speak when he was clearly dead?

Gu Wenzhao and others looked horrified.

Under Qi Tianyan’s gaze, the eyes on Ling Chen’s withered body suddenly opened.

"Thank you for killing me!"

Ling Chen spoke.

Then, Ling Chen’s body stood upright, standing on the ground.

"How is this possible? How can you not be dead?"

Qi Tianyan was both shocked and angry.

Ling Chen had clearly been struck by his Life-taking Secret Technique; how could he still be alive?

He clearly felt Ling Chen’s life force vanish earlier!

"This kid, he survived!"

Mu Qing was overjoyed.

Originally, he thought Ling Chen was doomed without a doubt, but who would have thought Ling Chen would give him such a huge surprise?

"Why isn’t he dead?!"

The heads of the Qin Family and the Chen Family, along with other strong figures, were full of disbelief.

"I knew, Boss wouldn’t die so easily!"

Xiao Qing laughed.

"Ling Chen isn’t dead!"

Liu Xiao laughed skyward.

In the Void Realm.

Although Ling Chen stood up, he still appeared incredibly old.

His body was hunched.

Still a decrepit old man.

As if he might die the next moment.

However, just then, Ling Chen’s body began to change again.

His body gradually straightened.

The body once again emitted a faint, radiant glow.

The wrinkles on his face smoothed out, as if reversing the aging process.

In just a few breaths, Ling Chen returned to normal.
