Chapter 694: Chapter 694: Past Affection, No Longer Exists

"This guy, he actually showed mercy, it seems that he has already guessed!"

Yu Chuan watched Lin Chen’s direction, and at this moment, Lin Chen was looking towards the peak where they were. Yu Chuan felt incredibly surprised in his heart.

He didn’t understand how Lin Chen managed to discover them.

Based on Yu Chuan’s investigation of Lin Chen, Lin Chen was neither merciful nor afraid of trouble.

Of course, it could also be because Qing Qizheng had not just given the order to kill Lin Chen on the spot.

What surprised Yu Chuan even more was the formidable strength displayed by Lin Chen.

In Yu Chuan’s view, Lin Chen’s cultivation was only slightly better, perhaps comparable to Qing Qizheng’s.

But Yu Chuan never expected that Lin Chen would defeat Qing Qizheng with an overwhelming advantage, easily.

One should know that after reaching the Heavenly Human Realm, each advancement in realm would lead to a qualitative leap in strength.

With such an absolute advantage, Lin Chen’s victory over Qing Qizheng puzzled Yu Chuan about Lin Chen’s true strength.

Yu Chuan had originally thought that if Qing Qizheng attacked Lin Chen with full force and combined with his subordinates, they might exchange a few moves with Lin Chen and figure out his strength.

However, now it seemed that all of this was in vain.

At this moment, Yu Chuan began to suspect whether Lin Chen’s discovery of them was related to Lu Min.

Lu Min was having the same thoughts at this moment.

Because if Lin Chen had discovered Lu Min, and once Qing Wanrong learned of this in the future, she would inevitably become enemies with him if she knew he had been present and had not helped Qing Qizheng.

At this time, Yu Chuan and Lu Min both started to suspect each other in their hearts.

However, they didn’t know that the reason Lin Chen was able to sense them was that his Divine Soul had become so powerful that it was comparable to theirs.

The Enlightenment Recliner that Lin Chen had obtained in the Qitian Sect had further enhanced his Divine Soul, which was now nearing the soul level of a Half-Step Nirvana Realm powerhouse.

So when the two of them used their Spiritual Sense to detect the battle between Lin Chen and Qing Qizheng’s group, how could Lin Chen possibly fail to notice.

Lin Chen looked at Qing Qizheng, who was still screaming on the ground, didn’t say much, and left with Qiu Ya.

"Senior Brother Lin Chen, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault."

Qiu Ya looked at Lin Chen, truly feeling guilty.

She hadn’t expected to encounter a betrayal by a close sister in the Formation Sect.

If it weren’t for Lin Chen’s appearance and his powerful cultivation, she probably would have fallen victim to that close sister’s scheme.

The humiliation she suffered from Qing Qizheng left her wondering how she would face the future.

Could she take revenge? With her strength, could she do it? Moreover, today she had also dragged Lin Chen into trouble.

Having offended two of the Ten Great True Disciples, Qiu Ya could imagine the difficulties Lin Chen would face in the days to come. She felt at a loss.

"Alright, don’t worry about these things, and it’s not like you did it on purpose."

"Rest assured, I can handle it. Besides, even without you, they would have found other ways to set me up!"

Lin Chen comforted Qiu Ya, saying.

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, tears welled up in Qiu Ya’s eyes, and her body shook as she sobbed.

Despite what Lin Chen said, Qiu Ya still felt she had caused trouble for Lin Chen.

She began to cry softly, and once a woman’s tears started to flow, they were hard to stop. She then threw herself into Lin Chen’s arms, continuing to sob.

Lin Chen, seeing this, felt somewhat at a loss...

At that moment, in a female disciple’s residence at the Formation Sect Outer Sect.

Zhou Die’s heart was turbulent. As an Outer Sect Disciple, she was well aware that to enter the Inner Sect, extraordinary talent and cultivation were required. She calculated how long it would take for herself to reach that day, and the wait seemed endless.

Out of a reckless impulse, she followed the plan of an Inner Sect Disciple and lured her close sister Qiu Ya to the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion.

By completing this task, Zhou Die would get an opportunity to enter the Inner Sect.

At first, Zhou Die did not believe it, but when that disciple produced a large number of Spirit Stones and elixirs, she believed it.

An Outer Sect Disciple would not know how long it would take to amass such a wealth. For this wealth, for the chance to enter the Inner Sect, Zhou Die decided to go through with it.

As for what would happen to Qiu Ya after being lured there, Zhou Die did not think much about it.

After all, it was just a trip to the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, what could go wrong?

However, after Qiu Ya had been away for a long time, Zhou Die began to feel uneasy and increasingly regretful.

She had a bad feeling in her heart, always feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.

As Zhou Die was restlessly pacing back and forth in the room, Qiu Ya’s figure suddenly appeared before her.

"Thank goodness you’re back, Junior Sister Qiu Ya."

Seeing Qiu Ya return safely, Zhou Die breathed a sigh of relief. But she immediately noticed Qiu Ya looking at her with angry eyes, accompanied by a stranger man.

"Who are you, and how come you’re back with my junior sister?"

Zhou Die looked at Lin Chen with furrowed brows, a bad premonition rising in her heart.

Seeing the look of someone who had been wronged on Qiu Ya, Zhou Die thought Lin Chen must have done something to Qiu Ya, and she immediately prepared to confront Lin Chen.

"You scoundrel, how dare you bully my junior sister!"

Zhou Die glared angrily at Lin Chen, without hesitation, she struck out with a palm.

Seeing this, Lin Chen slightly furrowed his brows, finding it hard to see through this woman for a moment.

She had clearly betrayed Qiu Ya, but now she was acting as if she was going to stand up for Qiu Ya, making it difficult for Lin Chen to discern her true intentions.

Hum—

Faced with Zhou Die’s attack, Lin Chen took a small step forward, and a powerful aura burst forth from his body, directly repelling Zhou Die.

Zhou Die felt a tightness in her chest as she stumbled backward several steps, nearly unable to breathe under the oppressive force.

"Senior Sister Zhou, he is Senior Brother Lin Chen. He didn’t bully me; on the contrary, he saved me today,"

Qiu Ya looked coldly at Zhou Die.

After joining the Formation Sect, they had relied on each other for survival, both being beautiful women. Their unharmed existence until this day was not without each other’s help.

However, today Qiu Ya was betrayed by Zhou Die, filling her heart with sadness.

She returned only to clarify one thing.
