Chapter 2479: Yue Chao Injured

Zi Yun sat down beside Jian Chen and stared at the side of his face. “Young master Jian Chen’s talent is outstanding and rare. You’ve just become an Infinite Prime recently, yet you already have the power to kill Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes. You’re thousands of times more impressive than those supreme prodigies raised by peak organisations in the Saints’ World. I wonder how outstanding a woman has to be for her to be worthy of you.”

However, as soon as she said that, Zi Yun felt like she had just said something inappropriate. How did she reach the topic of Jian Chen’s love life? It seemed like she was purposefully asking about it. It was far too obvious.

Zi Yun felt absent-minded after realising what she had just asked. Her heart beat rapidly as she became nervous. She thought, “What’s up with me? Why did I suddenly ask something like this? In the past ten years, did I... with young master Jian Chen...” As soon as she thought of that, Zi Yun could not help but blush slightly. She seemed rather embarrassed like a little girl.

Jian Chen sat there calmly. He stared off into space and said gently, “I’m already married.”

With that, Zi Yun immediately stiffened up. Her face immediately became rather pale, and her beating heart felt like it was being ripped apart.

“Any person with some level of status has many wives in the Saints’ World. With how outstanding Jian Chen is, it’s nothing special for him to have a partner already.” But very quickly, Zi Yun calmed down. In that instant, she thought of a lot of things and completely accepted them. She even calmed down.

“You already have a partner, but you can take on more. A supreme prodigy as outstanding as young master Jian Chen might have many wives in the future,” Zi Yun said softly.

Jian Chen shook his head gently and said calmly, “I already have three wives, but I’ve let down every single one of them. I’ve failed to live up to the role of a husband. Moreover, I’m completely devoted to cultivation, always working harder to reach a higher level of cultivation. I haven’t considered any aspects of love at all, so I don’t plan on taking on another woman in the future.”

“Perhaps my path is more suitable for being taken alone, without anything tying me back...”

Jian Chen completely understood that Zi Yun had developed feelings for him, but he had always treated her as a regular friend. He had never considered that, so he directly turned her down.

“I hope Zi Yun can understand,” thought Jian Chen. In reality, he could already tell ten years ago that Zi Yun had developed feelings for him unknowingly. The ten years of cultivation, in a certain sense, was avoidance.

Unfortunately, Zi Yun just could not see—no, perhaps she already saw, but she refused to believe it. She refused to give up. She truly would not stop unless she reached a dead end, which was why he could only say something like that.

Him never accepting another woman for the rest of his life could completely shatter any hope that Zi Yun held.

Zi Yun fell silent. She did not say anything at all. She only stared at the vast cosmos beyond the Martial Soul Mountain rather blankly. She was dejected.

At that moment, she felt like the world before her had lost its former color. It had become dull. Even though the outside world was colorful and varied, vast and beautiful, and her future path of cultivation would be smooth, she suddenly felt that everything was pointless.

At this moment, a figure directly fell over from beyond the Martial Soul Mountain. He was in free fall, directly falling towards the Martial Soul Mountain.

“It’s third senior!” Jian Chen recognised the falling figure right away. He happened to be Jian Chen’s third senior, Yue Chao. His face changed, and he immediately ignored Zi Yun beside him. He directly charged into the air, piercing through the sky as a resplendent streak of light like a strand of sword Qi. He arrived before Yue Chao in an instant and caught him.

“Third senior, why are you injured?” Landing back onto the ground, Jian Chen looked at the bloodied, pale-faced Yue Chao. He was extremely stern.

He could tell with a single glance that Yue Chao had suffered very heavy wounds.

Yue Chao was one of the three peak Chaotic Primes of the Martial Soul lineage. With his current strength and Martial Soul Force, he would be able to put up a fight against some regular Grand Primes or even kill them. However, he had become injured like this now.

“Third junior, who made you like this?” With a flash, Hun Zang arrived before Yue Chao. He immediately took out a God Tier pill and fed it to Yue Chao. His face was terrifyingly sunken.

“Third junior, why are you so injured...”

“Third senior...”

“Third senior...”

...

Afterwards, all the successors of the Martial Soul lineage made their way over. They all emerged from seclusion, gathering around Yue Chao. All of their faces were sunken as killing intent surged from them.

After ingesting a healing pill, Yue Chao’s situation took a turn for the better. He coughed out some blood a few times and slowly stood up. “I concealed myself and went to the Desolate Plane to check on some information about the protector swords, but I never thought I would be seen through in the end.”

“Did Yu Chen injure you?” Hun Zang growled. Yu Chen was the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall.

Yue Chao shook his head. “It was not Yu Chen.”

“Is it Xuan Zhan then? Aside from Yu Chen, only Xuan Zhan poses a threat to you from the Radiant Saint Hall. Even though Xuan Zhan is only a peak Chaotic Prime, his battle prowess rivals Grand Primes,” said Chu Jian.

“It’s not Xuan Zhan either. It’s a wielder of a protector sword,” said Yue Chao.

“What? You encountered a wielder of a protector sword?” Everyone was shocked as they collectively stared at Yue Chao.

Even Jian Chen became stern. He had already heard about the protector swords of the Radiant Saint Hall. It was exactly because of their existence that the Martial Soul lineage experience a threat, causing them to seek people to ally with.

Although he had not seen the protector swords before, he could tell that they were extremely powerful from what Hun Zang and the others said. After all, it was because of the protector swords that the Radiant Saint Hall was now the most powerful organisation on the Desolate Plane.

Yue Chao exhaled deeply. “I’ve basically gotten to the bottom of the protector swords. The protector swords are indeed extremely powerful and possess earth-shaking might. I think our Martial Soul lineage has no one that can match up to a protector sword in an open battle. However, the protector swords have fatal weakness as well. The protector swords lack the power of laws equivalent to its inherent power. I think that’s because the wielders possess far too low cultivations.”

“Originally, I only fought against a single person with a protector sword. Although I did not dare to clash with them openly, I was able to maneuver around them with the depth of my cultivation, preventing the person from attacking me. However, when the second protector sword appeared, they forced me to flee with injuries.”

“Third senior, do you know who the wielders are?” Su Qi asked.

“The terrifying power of the protector swords protect the wielders, masking their presence and appearance. I was unable to see who they were, nor was I able to harm them.” Yue Chao became rather stern and continued, “You need to get through the protective power around the wielder first in order to harm them.”

“This layer of protective power seems to possess a sliver of an extremely ancient imprint of consciousness, allowing it to block my Martial Soul Force. As a result, my Martial Soul Force was completely useless against the wielders. It was unable to penetrate their defence.”

With that, all the members of the Martial Soul lineage became extremely grim.
