Chapter 442: 442 Chapter Space Blockade Great Formation

"Brother Qi, we had an agreement. After we capture those two beauties, you can have all the treasures on them, but I want the women themselves. You can’t compete with me for them."

The man dressed in red, with many thumb-sized bumps on his face, looked extremely ugly. At the moment, he wore an evil grin, his lecherous eyes squinting as he spoke.

"Don’t worry, Brother Liang. When Qi Tianheng gives his word, he never goes back on it. Both Xia Wanxin and her purple-robed maid are yours."

Qi Tianheng smiled at Liang Shuo as he spoke.

Qi Tianheng was a prince from Tianyu Country, a superior vassal state of the Formation Sect. No woman had ever stirred his heart, not even Xia Wanxin.

To him, women were nothing but playthings. In Tianyu Country, many subordinates and elders would present him with beautiful women to please him, and those beauties far surpassed Xia Wanxin in looks and figure. Therefore, Qi Tianheng had not even the slightest ’male interest’ in Xia Wanxin.

If it hadn’t been for the encounter with the ugly Liang Shuo, Qi Tianheng might have indulged himself with Xia Wanxin and the purple-robed maid after capturing them. But since he had promised Liang Shuo, he naturally wouldn’t break his word.

Looking at Liang Shuo’s lustful demeanor, Qi Tianheng was filled with contempt.

While Qi Tianheng was chasing Xia Wanxin, Liang Shuo happened to pass by. Being from the same country, Liang Shuo took a liking to Xia Wanxin’s beauty and immediately proposed cooperation with Qi Tianheng. All he required in exchange for his help was for Qi Tianheng to hand over Xia Wanxin and the purple-robed maid to him after retrieving his items, on the condition that neither woman was to be touched by Qi Tianheng—they must be untouched.

Qi Tianheng found such a demand to be an insult to himself.

After all, as a prince of a nation, he was never short of women. It was unthinkable for him to quarrel over Xia Wanxin.

So despite agreeing outwardly with a smile, Qi Tianheng was inwardly full of disdain for Liang Shuo.

Whirr, whirr—

Once Qi Tianheng and Liang Shuo arrived at the mouth of the valley, with just a command from Qi Tianheng, the Martial Artists from Tianyu Country immediately took out an Array Plate. A series of formation flags flew out from the plate and landed around the valley, swiftly raising a Great Formation that enveloped the entire valley.

"Is this a Space-Sealing Great Formation!?"

Lin Chen, seeing the Great Formation manifesting above, his expression changed instantly.

When he sensed the presence of Qi Tianheng and Liang Shuo, Lin Chen knew these people would be big trouble. He didn’t want to get involved in the hostilities surrounding Xia Wanxin and others, nor did he want to cause trouble, so he prepared to use the Qiankun Escape Talisman to flee the place.

However, before Lin Chen could use the Qiankun Escape Talisman, the Space-Sealing Great Formation had already formed in the sky.

Once this Formation appeared, it could cut off all communication with the outside world and block any earth-escape techniques, even if they tried to channel Spiritual Power into a Teleportation Jade Slip, they would not be able to be transported out.

The Qiankun Escape Talisman Lin Chen held was merely a low-level Earth-escape Talisman—also restricted by the Space-Sealing Great Formation.

If Lin Chen wanted to escape, he would need to use a superior Qiankun Escape Talisman. However, such Talisman Inscriptions were of the Fifth-grade level, which Lin Chen was unable to refine at the moment.

"Young Master Lin Chen, you’re familiar with this Space-Sealing Great Formation as well?"

Xia Wanxin was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Chen’s words.

"Why wouldn’t I recognize it? The Great Formation has formed, right above our heads. Unless Miss Xia is blind?"

Lin Chen, not having time to waste on Xia Wanxin, immediately voiced his real thoughts.

"You..."

The purple-robed maid, upon hearing Lin Chen’s words addressed to their princess, became angry and, with a huff, pointed her finger at Lin Chen.

Xia Wanxin stopped the purple-robed maid. She understood Lin Chen’s words were unintentional.

After all, it was Xia Wanxin herself who had made the inappropriate comment, underestimating Lin Chen. She had assumed Lin Chen wouldn’t recognize the Great Formation before them, for such a profound array would surely leave any ordinary Martial Artist utterly confused and at a loss.

But Lin Chen recognized it, and by saying so, she inadvertently caused unnecessary trouble.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s face was full of seriousness, for the Great Formation had been laid down, making it impossible to escape using the Qiankun Escape Talisman. If escaping was out of the question, the only option left was to confront the situation head-on.

"Young Master Lin Chen, what will you do now?"

Xia Wanxin looked at Lin Chen and asked.

Xia Wanxin had never respected Qi Tianheng’s strength, but soon after entering the secret realm, Qi Tianheng had somehow gained a fortunate opportunity within and had broken through to the Half-Step Return to Void Realm.

This put his strength almost on par with Xia Wanxin. With Qi Tianheng well-prepared, bringing his people from Tianyu Country to the Formation Sect’s entrance exams, they outnumbered her. Plus, with the added annoyance of Liang Shuo’s presence, after being gravely injured, Xia Wanxin had used an Earth-escape Talisman to flee.

Regrettably, it seemed some sort of mark had been made on both Xia Wanxin and the purple-robed maid. Even after fleeing to this location, they were relentlessly pursued by Qi Tianheng and his men.

At this point, Lin Chen heard Xia Wanxin’s words but didn’t respond; instead, he focused his gaze on the Space-Sealing Great Formation in the sky.

This Formation wasn’t laid down by an Array Master, but was reliant on the Array Plates in the Martial Artists’ hands. This meant the critical point of the Formation was not overly complex but fixed.

If Lin Chen could locate the Formation’s critical point, he might be able to break it.

"Young Master Lin Chen, my mistress is speaking to you," the purple-robed maid interjected, knowing Lin Chen’s strong abilities and that he should not be offended lightly. But Lin Chen’s direct disregard for Xia Wanxin’s question immediately irked the purple-robed maid.
