Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: Su Family, Su Yun

"A half-year wait?"

Lin Chen frowned deeply after hearing Dragon Fang’s explanation.

If it really took half a year, by the time he got back to the Eastern Domain, the great war between the Divine Flame Alliance and Red Soul Hall would have been over.

His return, it seemed, would be too late.

Lin Chen, having no other choice, decided to expend a significant amount of resources to set up a Teleportation Array himself.

Although this place was far too distant from the Eastern Domain, fortunately, it was still within the Mysterious Heaven Continent.

Utilizing the Teleportation Array techniques learned within the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, as long as the Formation was properly constructed and some Spirit Stones were consumed, he could traverse the nearly hundred-million-li distance back to the Eastern Domain.

Hu hu——

However, just as Lin Chen was preparing to set up the Formation, a young man clad in gray charged crazily toward him.

Behind the man, a serpent-like Magical Beast was in hot pursuit.

It’s worth noting that the gray-clad man had the cultivation of the Fifth Layer of the Nirvana Realm, yet he was being chased by a Flood Dragon Snake, which showed how powerful the serpent was.

The man was fleeing for his life but felt a glimmer of hope when he saw someone ahead looking at him indifferently and earnestly sought help.

Yet, as the man drew nearer and discovered Lin Chen was only at the Nirvana Realm First Level of cultivation, his hope was immediately shattered.

A mere Nirvana Realm First Level, struggling to protect himself, how could he possibly save him?

"Young man, run quickly, there’s a Magical Beast chasing after me."

The gray-clad man saw that Lin Chen remained unmoved, unsure if it was genuine composure or mere shock, and appeared indifferent even in the face of the powerful Magical Beast.

If Lin Chen continued to stay put, once the Magical Beast arrived, Lin Chen’s death was certain.

Feeling guilty, the gray-clad man decided to bite the bullet and battle the Magical Beast, not wanting Lin Chen to die because of him.

Lin Chen watched the gray-clad man, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He originally did not intend to get involved, as he was new to the area and preferred not to leave any traces.

Moreover, the gray-clad man’s cultivation was not weak; even if he couldn’t kill the Magical Beast, he could protect himself.

However, Lin Chen didn’t expect this gray-clad man, with his candid and upright nature, to actually choose to stop and fight a life-and-death battle with the Magical Beast.

Lin Chen realized that it was because of him that the other had stopped.

Lin Chen chose not to flee because, in his eyes, the Flood Dragon Snake didn’t pose a threat at all.

Soon after, the gray-clad man engaged in a fierce battle with the Flood Dragon Snake Magical Beast.

The two fought back and forth, and for a while, it was difficult to tell who had the upper hand, only that they were evenly matched.

"Damn, old man, I’ve said it time and again that I’m not cut out to be the Family Head. Holding this position gives me a lot of pressure. Since others desire it, they’re welcome to take it."

"You insisted that I participate in this contest and would only let me go free afterward, isn’t this asking me to die? Those guys certainly don’t intend to let me out alive."

The gray-clad man cursed bitterly as he fought against the Flood Dragon Snake.

This man was none other than Su Yun, the legitimate Young Master of the Su Family.

Boom——

Suddenly, Su Yun, battling the Flood Dragon Snake, ran out of Spiritual Power and was sent flying by a hammer blow from the Magical Beast.

Lin Chen found this interesting, thinking to himself how intriguing the Martial Artists and Magical Beasts of this place were, with even the Magical Beasts knowing how to use magic treasures.

Perhaps, this Flood Dragon Snake was no ordinary demon, possibly having dealings with humans.

However, Lin Chen wasn’t interested in it.

Su Yun could have escaped directly, but he stayed to ensure Lin Chen wasn’t killed by the Flood Dragon Snake, which earned Su Yun a bit of Lin Chen’s goodwill.

On a mountaintop dozens of li away from where Su Yun and the Flood Dragon Snake were fighting, Su He and the others were observing the battle. Seeing Su Yun being knocked away, joy sprouted in their brows, hoping for Su Yun’s demise.

If Su Yun died, their mission would be completed.

In fact, if Su He and the others had to kill Su Yun themselves, there would be pressure in their hearts, since Su Yun was the Young Master, and they were collateral descendants, practically servants before him.

Hence, they later devised a plan to make a deal with the Magical Beast and even lent a magic treasure to it.

"Am I really going to die in such a place?"

Su Yun, watching the massive claw of the Flood Dragon Snake approach, panicked inside. With his Spiritual Power exhausted, he couldn’t counter the attack.

Looking at the Flood Dragon Snake’s onslaught, Su Yun felt a sense of hopelessness...

...

Meanwhile, outside Flowing Sky Gorge.

On a wide expanse of land, there was a high platform where many powerful individuals had gathered.

This was a platform set up by the Zhongzhou Su Family near the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range by the Flowing Sky Gorge, waiting for the results of the disciples’ trials within.

"Cough cough——"

Suddenly, a middle-aged man on the high platform coughed violently, making it seem as if he might perish from illness at any moment.

People around him were already accustomed to this sight; some were worried, while others were secretly pleased.

"Family Patriarch, you should go back to the clan first. The wind in this Streamlight Gorge is too strong, and the air is damp. If the Yin energy invades your body, it could lead to discomfort," a middle-aged man in a purple robe approached Su Liuyun, the Su Family Patriarch, and said with concern.

Su Liuyun glanced at Su Chengze and waved his hand.

"No need to worry about me, I can withstand this bit of wind," said Su Liuyun.

However, what no one expected was that this seemingly frail Su Liuyun was in fact a true Creation Realm Expert.
