Overriding the Heaven

Handsome smacked his lips and mumbled something.    

"What did you say?" Chu Yan looked at the handsome man, only to realize that he had his eyes closed and was fast asleep.    

It seemed to be a dream.    

Just as he was pondering, Chu Yan saw Yun Nichang looking towards the sky, her face revealed an excited expression.    

Turning his body to follow the direction of the other party's gaze, Chu Yan saw a Spirit Boat with the Shattered Star Pavilion's symbol carved on it, quickly flying over.    

"It's finally here."    

Seeing the Spirit Boat flying over, Chu Yan did not feel relaxed at all.    

On the contrary, he felt a wave of pressure.    

This was because only then would he face the true test.    

They would only be able to temporarily relax after the sect's explanation on how to get out of their predicament.    

Most importantly, after this incident, Chu Yan still had a connection with Ji Fengtang.    

"The grudge between the Thousand God Island and Ji Fengtang has nothing to do with me at all, but how can each of the disciples that you have taught yourself, Ji Fengtang, be inferior to the other?"    

Chu Yan was also very helpless.    

From Zhao Yu's words, Chu Yan found out that Ji Fengtang possessed the Destiny Plate and Heart's Flame Lamp, which tested the survival of his four disciples.    

Chu Yan had never heard of such a method before.    

Therefore, Chu Yan was not sure if there were any methods that Ji Fengtang did not know of that would allow him to trace along and eventually find out everything about himself.    

Although he did his best to erase any traces of himself.    

However, Chu Yan's cultivation level was still far lower than Ji Fengtang's after all.    

The number of techniques he had at his disposal was far less than his opponent's.    

"No matter what happens, raising my own strength is the most important. If I have the same strength as Ji Fengtang, or maybe even stronger than him.    

Then, even if I were to kill his disciple, it will still be him who will apologize to me. "    

Chu Yan sighed helplessly.    

Just as he was thinking about these things, the Spirit Boat of Shattered Star Pavilion had already landed in front of him.    

The one who walked out of the Spirit Boat first was the gentle Senior Sister Su Yuqing.    

"Senior Sister Su!" When Chu Yan saw his senior sister, who was also a teacher and friend, his heart couldn't help but warm up.    

"Junior Chu." Su Yuqing smiled as she approached, her footsteps also becoming a lot faster than usual.    

She sized up Chu Yan and confirmed that he was not injured. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.    

Upon receiving the news from Sister Lin, I immediately led my men over. You were not injured, it's really great. Seeing Chu Yan opening his arms towards him, Su Yuqing's face reddened, but she still stepped forward and hugged him.    

At this time, Yun Nichang also went up to meet Su Yuqing. However, before the two of them could speak, a excited voice came from the direction of the Spirit Boat.    

"Chu Yan! It's great that you're fine! "    

Su Jianyuan immediately jumped down from the Spirit Boat and stood in front of Chu Yan, laughing merrily.    

Su Jianyuan looked to be worn out from the journey, but when he saw that Chu Yan had returned, the joy in his eyes grew even brighter.    

Without waiting for Chu Yan to speak, he continued: "After you and the princess were kidnapped by Wang Shen that day, we had all wanted to save you but the elders did not agree to let us leave the imperial city. We could only kill the beasts at the sides while searching for clues about you.    

These days, we've been really anxious.    

Now that you have safely returned, it is truly great! "    

"The reason why the elders are doing this is for your safety." Chu Yan said.    

He understood the decision the elders had made.    

Both inside and outside the Royal Capital was a sea of chaos. Fire blazed into the sky, and slaughter could be seen everywhere.    

There were Grand Monster of Manifestation s, Demonic Cultivator s and a sky full of beasts.    

In this kind of situation, even if it was a Earth Origin Stage cultivator, if they weren't careful, they could still be surrounded and die on the spot.    

Su Jianyuan and the others were all at the Pulse Condensation Stage realm, so even if they were to be partners, they would be in danger.    

If some accident happened to them trying to find him, Chu Yan would also feel guilty.    

"But there's nothing wrong now. It's great that you're back." Su Jianyuan patted Chu Yan's shoulder.    

After a moment, the corners of his lips curled up. "Welcome back."    

After Chu Yan and the rest boarded the Spirit Boat and started their journey back.    

After a while, behind a big tree not far from where the Spirit Boat had landed, a girl dressed in foreign clothing appeared.    

The young girl's skin was fair and exquisite like cream, and her eyes were a rare shade of green.    

However, the most eye-catching part was her two wrists.    

Two small, thin snakes, one green and one red, were twined around her wrist that was as white as jade.    

This added a touch of seductive charm to her charming temperament.    

Looking at the Spirit Boat that was gradually leaving her sight, the girl lightly snorted. She bit her lips and gave a smile that was not a smile.    

"Where did this little demoness come from? She actually dares to seduce a man that I've chosen. Do she really think that I, Wusilanma, am a pushover?!"    

But soon, the corners of her mouth curled up into a beautiful curve.    

"However, that bad guy Chu Yan is still as useless as before. Even a beauty like him wouldn't be moved by his presence."    

At this moment, she looked both displeased and happy. As long as it was a normal male creature that saw her, they would be immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.    

Biting his lower lip lightly, Wusilanma thought for a while, then suddenly remembered something, he stomped his feet and exclaimed softly, "It's all Chu Yan's fault, he made me forget the most important matter!"    

Seeing the direction the Spirit Boat went, Wusilanma quickly chased after it.    

While shuttling rapidly through the mountain forest, Wusilanma hummed to herself, "Idiot, I'll let you return the time that I wasted today. Just you wait!"    

While talking, Wusilanma seemed to have thought of something, and her face suddenly flushed red.    

At this time, Chu Yan, who was standing on the Spirit Boat deck and gazing far away, suddenly felt a chill on her back.    

"Who's scolding me?"    

His Highness frowned.    

However, he soon understood.    

As the saying goes, when debts are too high, there is no pressure. Recently, when His Highness Chu was in the limelight, he had already gotten used to people stabbing him from behind.    

Very quickly, he stopped paying attention to this matter and continued to chat with Su Yuqing and Su Jianyuan who were beside him.    

At this moment, Yun Nichang was standing not far behind him.    

She had been silently watching Chu Yan.    

She didn't know why, but she kept having the feeling that Chu Yan and Su Yuqing and Su Jianyuan were extremely close.    

This feeling was very different from what her teacher had told her.    

Walking on the path of Immortality is the same as a mortal treading on a single bridge.    

Until now, Yun Nichang still remembered the words of her teacher.    

Every word resounded clearly in her ears.    

"Only those who have experienced numerous hardships and survived after being covered in injuries can become strong and heroic.    

In this world, only a very small number of people can enjoy the final glory, and the vast majority can only become cold tombstones. "    

The meaning of this passage was very simple and straightforward.    

If he wanted to achieve something on the Immortal Path, then he would have to go through trials and tribulations that far exceeded that of ordinary people.    

The successful cultivators, including her teacher, all seemed to carry with them this type of suffering.
