Chapter 167: Chapter 168: Tomb of the Emperor of Fertility (3rd Update) (Please Favorite, Tip, and Recommend)

Now, the number one genius of the Martial Victory Kingdom, the Crown Prince Zhi Lingtian of the Martial Victory Academy, seems even less formidable than Chu Fengmian.

Back then, Zhi Lingtian indeed soared high, but if he, with his body-forging realm, had faced a Martial Artist at the peak of the Divine Sea realm, he probably wouldn’t have stood a chance.

Such a miracle could only possibly be accomplished if the Emperor of Fertility were still alive.

"Yan Xuan is not really considered a strong fighter,"

Chu Fengmian calmly spoke.

The ancient Yan Clan was indeed very powerful, but with Yan Xuan’s thin bloodline, he was far from a true ancient member of the Yan Clan.

Moreover, even if he were a true ancient Yan Clan member, he would not be a match for the ancient war dragons, who were the supreme rulers at the time. Rational or emotional, Xuan Yan counted for nothing.

Chu Fengmian being able to kill him was not surprising.

Without the Red Flame Sword, Chu Fengmian might have used some methods, but possessing the Red Flame Sword, killing Xuan Yan was nothing.

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Han Yueli felt extremely helpless inside.

Yan Xuan was considered one of this generation’s prominent figures, a leader in the current session of the Candle Flame Sect, and his strength was naturally indisputable.

At the very least, Han Yueli knew that Yan Xuan’s strength was even above hers; she might not lose to Yan Xuan, but neither could she defeat him.

If anyone else had said those words, Han Yueli would have thought them arrogant.

But when Chu Fengmian said it, Han Yueli found no reason to argue, as Chu Fengmian had just effortlessly killed Yan Xuan, making his claim irrefutable.

"Having killed Yan Xuan, you should also be cautious, as he was a disciple of the Sect Leader of the Candle Flame Sect. Once news of his death spreads, all the disciples of the Candle Flame Sect in the Holy Land will spare no effort to kill you."

Han Yueli voiced a reminder by his side.

The identity of Yan Xuan was not just any disciple of the Candle Flame Sect; news of his death would certainly spread quickly.

At the very least, Han Yueli knew that there were several core disciples of the Candle Flame Sect in the Holy Land.

Being a core disciple in one of the four major sects, one has to possess the strength of a Martial Artist at the Wind-Riding Realm.

Although there’s only one realm difference between the peak of the Divine Sea and the Wind-Riding Realm, Han Yueli, as a peak Divine Sea realm Martial Artist, understood how vast the gap was.

Facing Yan Xuan, Han Yueli could maintain an undefeated position, but coming across any Wind-Riding Realm Martial Artist, Han Yueli would undoubtedly lose within ten moves.

"Indeed, if I’m not mistaken, those Candle Flame Sect Martial Artists must have already learned of Yan Xuan’s demise,"

Chu Fengmian said in a low voice.

"We must leave here now."

A flicker of hesitation crossed Chu Fengmian’s eyes as he spoke.

"I wonder if Miss Han would care to join me?"

There was something about Han Yueli that greatly intrigued Chu Fengmian, something he wanted to investigate.

"Yes, now that Yan Xuan has fallen, it’s impossible for me to detach myself,"

Han Yueli nodded.

The aura of Yan Xuan’s fall instantly made it clear who had killed him.

This kind of deduction wasn’t difficult for a Wind-Riding Realm Martial Artist.

"Let’s go back first,"

Chu Fengmian didn’t immediately escape but suddenly returned to where the fight had just taken place.

"I wonder how Brother Chu is doing,"

Watching the direction in which Chu Fengmian had vanished, Hao Lan murmured to himself.

This was the second time, he hadn’t expected that during the second crisis, it would still be Chu Fengmian who came to his rescue.

Seeing Chu Fengmian defeat Yan Xuan, forcing Yan Xuan to flee, Hao Lan could hardly believe his eyes.

In such a short period of time, they had thought their strength had progressed quickly, but compared to Chu Fengmian, they felt utterly insignificant.

They had just stepped into the Divine Sea realm, and Chu Fengmian was already capable of defeating a peak Martial Artist of the Divine Sea realm, especially since Chu Fengmian’s realm was still in the Body Tempering stage.

Crossing over ten or more realms—could this really be something a Martial Artist could achieve?

Now, Chu Fengmian was much more formidable than the Chu Fengmian they had met last time.

"There’s no need to worry, don’t you already know Brother Chu’s power?" Mo Changhen said calmly.

He was well aware of Chu Fengmian’s capabilities. Since Chu Fengmian pursued Yan Xuan, even if Yan Xuan didn’t die, it wouldn’t be difficult for Chu Fengmian to come back unharmed.

"Everyone, long time no see."

A voice suddenly appeared out of nowhere, causing excitement to appear on the faces of Mo Changhen and his companions.

"Big Brother Chu."

Hao Lan exclaimed with joy.

"Hao Lan, long time no see. You’ve already reached the Divine Sea realm in such a short amount of time." Chu Fengmian laughed heartily and his figure landed in front of everyone. He glanced at Hao Lan and said with a smile.

"Brother Chu, did Yan Xuan die?" Mo Changhen asked, looking at Chu Fengmian.

If Yan Xuan were to survive, he would always be a threat. Given Yan Xuan’s personality, he would definitely seek revenge in the future.

Chu Fengmian was powerful and unafraid, but for the four of them, Yan Xuan could annihilate them with one hand.

"Indeed, Yan Xuan has been eliminated by me," Chu Fengmian nodded and affirmed.

"However, you mustn’t be careless. The disciples of Red Flame Sect might already know about this; it would be better for you to hide around the outskirts of the Holy Land."

"With your strength, if you encountered the disciples of the Red Flame Sect, or disciples from other sects, you’d be in great danger," Chu Fengmian cautioned.

In the realm of the Divine Sea, within the Martial Victory Kingdom, their level wasn’t considered low, but here in the Holy Land, everyone admitted was an exceptional genius. A realm around the third layer of the Divine Sea was considered the lowest tier, and encountering other Martial Artists could put them at risk.

These four had some connections with Chu Fengmian; he did not want them encountering any mishaps.

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Mo Changhen couldn’t help but reveal a wry smile.

Their Divine Sea realm, being cautioned by a Body Tempering Chu Fengmian, seemed a bit strange, but Chu Fengmian’s strength justified his qualification.

Being able to defeat Yan Xuan, his power was considered mid-tier in the Holy Land, not enough to encounter danger at the hands of Martial Artists.

"Actually, we were all staying at the periphery originally, but recently there have been some anomalies within the Holy Land, which is why we decided to venture deeper. We just didn’t expect to run into Yan Xuan and his group upon arrival."

"Anomalies? Are you talking about the tomb of the Emperor of Fertility?"

Suddenly, Han Yueli, who was beside him, spoke up.

"Exactly, the tomb of the Emperor of Fertility," Mo Changhen nodded and confirmed.

"We also wanted to enter to try our luck."
