Chapter 1488 - 1487: Yingzhou Trembles

Chapter 1488: Chapter 1487: Yingzhou Trembles

In just a few days, the events that occurred on San Chuan Island spread across the entire Yingzhou Continent.

The Gongben Family, Ju Family, Yuanshi Clan, and other first-rate Martial Arts Families, as well as top-tier shrines like Glacier Shrine and Star Palace Shrine, experienced great upheaval upon hearing the news.

Shang Quan Yi Xin was defeated by Ling Chen in a duel?

This matter was shocking enough, no, this was just an appetizer.

After defeating Shang Quan Yi Xin, Ling Chen went on to slay the Ghost God—Green-faced Ghost, worshiped by Izumo Shrine, and this time it wasn’t just an avatar, but the actual body of the Green-faced Ghost!

This was not all, after slaying the Green-faced Ghost, Ling Chen also exterminated Fengmo Clan Leader Fengmo Tianchuan!

When the forces of Fengmo Clan and Shangquan Family went to San Chuan Island and clashed with Ling Chen, many families had anticipated a great battle between the two sides, but the result of this battle, most expected Ling Chen to be on the losing side.

No one expected Ling Chen to save the Wugong Family from the forces of both families, as the disparity in strength was evident from the outset.

Who could have foreseen that Ling Chen would achieve not only this but achieve something beyond imagination?

At this moment, the most fortunate person was Shang Quan Yi Xin, luckily he kept his promise, leaving with the members of the Shangquan Family after losing the duel to Ling Chen, otherwise, he might have ended up like Fengmo Tianchuan!

Liu Sheng Family.

Inside a wooden house.

LiuSheng Qianbingwei sat prominently in the main seat, while the high-ranking members of the Liu Sheng Family sat on both sides within the wooden house, each with a solemn expression and a heavy atmosphere.

"I never imagined that Ling Chen could be this fearsome."

Mentioning Ling Chen, LiuSheng Qianbingwei had a look of shock in his eyes. Initially, he intended to use Hong Ye’s identity to deplete the strength of Izumo Shrine. He thought that Ling Chen could make Izumo Shrine suffer some losses, which was already expecting a lot from Ling Chen. Yet, Ling Chen unexpectedly directly killed the Green-faced Ghost, crippling the lifeblood of Izumo Shrine, rendering the vast Izumo Shrine nothing but a name.

Moreover, those equal in status with him like Shang Quan Yi Xin and Fengmo Tianchuan ended up defeated and dead respectively.

Luckily, he did not act against Ling Chen at that time. This child truly is a monster, unfathomable!

"Family Head, this is good news for our Liu Sheng Family."

A senior member of the Liu Sheng Family spoke up, "Izumo Shrine lost its worshiped Ghost God, it’s like a tiger without claws. Destroying Izumo Shrine now should be effortlessly achievable."

Previously, Izumo Shrine was a blade hanging over the Liu Sheng Family’s head, its greatest rival and obstacle. Now that Izumo Shrine is nothing but a name, it’s a perfect opportunity for the Liu Sheng Family to expand its influence.

"With Izumo Shrine’s downfall and Fengmo Clan severely injured, who would have thought that within one day, the landscape of the Yingzhou Martial Arts World would undergo such a drastic transformation."

LiuSheng Qianbingwei’s eyes flickered constantly, and upon hearing the news, even he found it hard to believe. Ling Chen, with his own might, disrupted the entire Yingzhou Martial Arts World; it truly is inconceivable.

"Notify all family members not to provoke the Wugong family or engage in conflict with them."

LiuSheng Qianbingwei ordered the high-ranking members within the house.

"Yes!"

The senior members of the Liu Sheng Family nodded in agreement, but then one person raised their head, their eyes flashing as they asked, "What about the young lady, what should we do?"

Hong Ye was still beside Ling Chen, and they were hesitant about whether to bring Hong Ye back to the Liu Sheng Family. They’ve heard of Hong Ye’s current strength, able to directly defeat Fengmo Tianchuan, and her capability is feared to be no less than the current Family Head LiuSheng Shibingwei.

If Hong Ye were to return to the Liu Sheng Family, it would greatly enhance the family’s strength.

Yet they were afraid of offending Ling Chen. If doing so leads to offending Ling Chen, it may bring about a calamity of annihilation for the Liu Sheng Family.

"Whether Hong Ye returns is entirely up to her own will."

LiuSheng Qianbingwei’s eyes showed a meaningful look, "If she doesn’t want to return, that’s fine, staying with Ling Chen isn’t bad."

Previously, he only intended to use Ling Chen, and thus allowed Hong Ye to stay by Ling Chen’s side. Even then, he felt it was a shameful thing. Once Ling Chen was no longer useful, he would naturally act and take Hong Ye back from Ling Chen.

However, now the situation is evidently different. Despite just being a maid, Hong Ye’s capabilities have achieved a terrifying advancement, something he didn’t foresee. If Hong Ye wishes to continue following Ling Chen, then why not?

No matter what, Hong Ye is still part of the Liu Sheng Family, with an indelible blood relation. If the Liu Sheng Family encounters peril in the future, Hong Ye wouldn’t sit idly by.

Given Ling Chen’s intimidating nature, Hong Ye following him might achieve even greater accomplishments.

Meanwhile, various other forces in Yingzhou are also instructing their clanspeople to keep a respectful distance from Ling Chen and the Wugong family.

At this time, within the Wugong family, everything is bustling with activity, in the midst of fervent reconstruction.

After repelling the forces of Shangquan Family and Fengmo Clan, the Wugong family naturally retained possession of the gilded vein on San Chuan Island and gained space to survive. Moreover, the Wugong family’s influence achieved a certain level of expansion, with several nearby minor forces coming to submit. For the moment, instead of being weakened by the great battle, the Wugong family grew significantly stronger.

In the following days, Ling Chen stayed within the Wugong family, partly to recuperate and partly to prevent any counterattacks from Fengmo Clan and Shangquan Family. However, judging from the current situation, this seems unlikely.

The two families now dare not confront Ling Chen. They are fortunate enough to have escaped with their lives from Ling Chen’s grasp; seeking trouble with Ling Chen now is just asking for death.

Besides, the Shangquan clan fared better, suffering minimal losses in the battle on San Chuan Island, but the Fengmo Clan was a different story. The clan leader, Fengmo Tianchuan, died by Ling Chen’s hand, resulting in chaos within Fengmo Clan, fragmented, with various internal forces arising to vie for the position of Family Head. They are preoccupied with their issues, having no time to concern themselves with the Wugong family.

And through this more than a half-month respite, Ling Chen’s strength once again elevated to another level. The power unleashed by the Human Emperor’s burning will triggered Ling Chen’s body’s potential to some extent, and after Ling Chen slew the bodied form of the Ghost God, Green-faced Ghost, his Sword Intent skyrocketed, reaching the pinnacle of Saint-class Intermediate Stage Sword Intent, only a step away from Saint-class High-rank!

With such advancement, if Ling Chen were to face Shang Quan Yi Xin again now, he would undoubtedly win even more effortlessly!
