Eternal Sovereign

The Chen family member who was captured by Chen Liangliang shook his head in panic: "I don't know, I've never seen him before, he followed Elder Chen Shouming."

It was better not to have seen it before than to be sure that Chen Yi was dead. Although Chen Liangliang's face was still pale, a hint of expectation rose in her heart.

Chen Liangliang's father, who was Chen Yi's uncle, patted Chen Liangliang on the shoulder and comforted her: "Chen Yi is actually very smart. He probably hid somewhere and came out soon."

"Yes, that must be it." Chen Liangliang nodded immediately.

The others didn't think so. Looking at these people, the weakest was still a six meridians martial artist at the peak of the Invigorated Meridian Realm. What cultivation level was Chen Yi at?

He had just become a warrior of four meridians, and he hadn't been able to train his martial arts and skills to a high level yet. Without the protection of the Elder of the Circulatory Cycle Revolution, the forest was bound to be full of danger, and with the rank three beasts, the chances of survival were less than ten percent.

Chen Xun and Chen Jinghe pursed their lips.

Chen Yi's second uncle wished that Chen Yi would just die inside. To his second uncle, Chen Yi was an outsider after all. Moreover, this matter could be exposed at any time. When that time came, the Chen family would inevitably be mocked by the Du and Zhang families.

An outsider had actually become a direct descendant of their Chen Clan for such a long time.

If he died in the forest, perhaps he would be able to keep this secret forever.

Chen Yi's grandfather wasn't as heartless as his second uncle. Although he was a bit troubled by the fact that Chen Yi wasn't his own grandson, after living together for so many years, how could he possibly be indifferent to the safety of Chen Yi's life?

Secondly, if Chen Yi really died, how painful would his third son be?

When he thought of this, Chen Yi's grandfather had the urge to go into the forest and save her.

Having roughly seen through his father's thoughts, Chen Yi's second uncle said in a low voice, "Father, don't be rash. Right now, the mountain is so dangerous. If we go in to save them, we might not be able to do so."

As Chen Yi's second uncle said this, Chen Yi's grandfather indeed began to hesitate.

Chen Yi's safety was indeed important, but so was the rest of the people, especially Chen Jinghe. Chen Yi's grandfather had trained him as the next head of the family, and Chen Jinghe was also the most likely person for the Chen family to break through to the Xiantian realm in these years.

If something bad happened to him, Chen Yi's grandfather would probably regret it to death.

However, Uncle Chen Yi scolded, "Second Brother!" It was obvious that uncle Chen Yi was dissatisfied with his second brother being so cold-blooded.

Chen Liangliang was also furious, but Chen Yi's uncle was an elder so it was hard for Chen Liangliang to say anything. She turned her eyes and said to the person who escaped with great difficulty: "Our three families have heavy casualties, what about the Golden Forest Army?"

The Chen family disciple who had escaped said, "I have seen the Jin Lin Army's men being attacked from a distance, but they were all at the Heavenly Axis Realm, and they formed a small team with barely enough strength to resist the attack. In the end, they were repelled by a Rank 3 Demonic Beast, but they were also severely injured, so if they were attacked by a powerful Rank 3 Demonic Beast during this period of time, they might not be safe."

"It is also because of this that I did not join them. Instead, I directly fled back."

Hearing this, Chen Liangliang turned to her father and said: "I don't know what's going on in the mountains. Powerful Class 3 beasts are rising up one by one, plus Barley who is hiding in the dark, the adults of the Golden Forest Army might not be safe and sound. Why don't we organize people to support them?"

"Especially that Lord Lin. If something were to happen inside the mountain, would the Lin Family spare our Yongde Town's three families?"

Upon hearing these words, the expressions of Chen Yi's uncle, second uncle, and grandfather all changed.

They could predict that if something really happened to that Lin guy, the Yongde town's three families would most likely be buried with him.

Chen Yi's second uncle muttered, "The weakest members of the Golden Forest Army are at the Circulatory Cycle Realm. If the three captains aren't at the Greater Heaven stage, then they're at the Lesser Heaven stage. What can happen to them?"

Rank 3 Demonic Beasts were terrifying existences to the Elder of the Circulatory Sky Realm of the three clans. It was not as if they were aiming for the Upper Sky Realm.

Even if several Rank 3 Demonic Beasts were combined together, it would still be difficult to aim for damage to the innate experts.

But...

Uncle Chen Yi said in a deep voice, "The triangular green deer and the Bramble Tree Demoness are not the demon beasts that usually cause trouble, especially the triangular green deer, which is an auspicious beast. Something must have happened in the depths of the forest that we don't know about, so it can't be that just because Captain Lin and the others are quasi-Innate, they think that Captain Lin will not be in danger."

"Besides, there is also Barley who is watching like a tiger in the dark. He might be able to find an opportune moment to launch a sneak attack on Captain Lin."

"Our three reinforcements, the Jin Lin army, is unable to hide anything from Ba Lei. If Ba Lei is able to successfully escape, do you think Ba Lei will take revenge on us?"

Chen Yi's second uncle was stumped by the question. Thinking of the revenge of a Lesser Heaven, his second uncle broke out in a cold sweat.

Uncle Chen Yi said, "Even if Barley didn't take revenge, Captain Lin would still be fine in the end. However, if we don't investigate clearly what happened in the depths of the forest, will we be able to go back peacefully?"

"Those Level 3 demon beasts can mutate to suck human blood, they are bloodthirsty, and they have even left the range of their normal activities. Can you guarantee that these demon beasts will not attack our town for a few more days?"

Chen Yi's second uncle's face revealed a frightened expression. This was not impossible.

From ancient times until now, it was not as if there had never been a incident where a demon beast attacked a city. A thousand years ago, an event that shocked countless people happened on the continent.

A ninth level Heavenly Demon had led many of his great demons to annihilate a city. Their lives had been exterminated, and only an ancient great master of the royal family had taken action to exterminate the ninth level Heavenly Demon.

Normally, when demon beasts attacked the city, it was because an extraordinary demon beast had appeared within the demon beasts. Qing Lin Mountain was not big, and there weren't many Rank Three demon beasts. Therefore, Yongde Town wasn't worried about any demon beasts attacking the city.

However, if there were any changes in the forest that provoked the demon beasts, the result would be unknown.

Chen Yi's grandfather could no longer care about the scruples of his second son. He went straight to the Du Family's Patriarch and the Zhang Family's Patriarch, and brought up the matter of entering the mountain to assist. Since he could save the disciples of the three families, he decided to save them.

They had the same concerns as Chen Yi's second uncle and did not want to lose any more manpower. The thought of their Elder Zhou Tian who they had sent into the mountain had already died made their hearts ache, five of them were at the Heavenly Axis Realm. This loss was too big, it would take at least twenty years before they could recover.

Grandpa Chen Yi knew that the two of them would object, so he told the two of them about Uncle Chen's worries.

This time, the two Patriarchs had no choice but to agree.

No one wanted to bear the potential retaliation from the Lin Clan, as well as the potential revenge from a Lesser Heaven stage expert, and even the possibility of demonic beasts attacking the Lin Clan.

However, the two Patriarchs had also said that it was fine if they could go with a cultivator of the Revolving Core realm, but there was no need for the younger generation to do so. Facing those Stage Three demonic beasts that had undergone an unknown change, those disciples of the Invigorated Meridian Realm would not be of any help at all.

Chen Yi's grandfather also agreed. He had done the same, and he was only bringing his eldest son and the few other Heavenly Axis Realm experts he had left behind to go together.

Chen Yi's second uncle had been left behind by Chen Yi's grandfather in case of an accident. To put it bluntly, he wanted to protect the remaining younger generation.

Therefore, the three clans with more than ten Qi Refining experts once again entered the mountain.

"..."

In the forest, Chen Yi encountered a great crisis. While Chen Yi was fleeing, he coincidentally discovered the Bramble Demon hunting the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm.

The moment Chen Yi saw the Thorny Tree Demoness' change, he knew that this was another Rank 3 Demonic Beast like the Nine Poison Demon Lizard. He immediately turned around and ran.

Upon noticing Chen Yi, the eyes of the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm expert lit up. He immediately dashed towards Chen Yi, hoping to use Chen Yi as a scapegoat.

Chen Yi's expression changed as he turned around and ran, cursing the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm for being such a scumbag.

"Boy from the Chen family, help me block this Bramble Demon. When I escape, I will definitely bring people to rescue you." Zhang Xuan shouted.

Chen Yiran ignored him and sped up instead.

Block one? Could a martial artist from the four meridians of the Thorny Tree Demoness defeat a demon beast of the same level?

Even if he used all his firepower, when he reached the third stage of [Burning Demon Body], a mere first transition large success stage [Burning Demon Body] would at most give him the strength to compete with a small circle of experts. Facing a Bramble Demon, an existence that was considered to be extremely powerful, it was simply not worth mentioning.

"Bastard!" Seeing that Chen Yi hadn't turned around, the Zhang Family's Qi of the Circulatory Level became ferocious.

In order to survive, the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm was determined to use Chen Yi as a scapegoat.

"Shrinkage!" Using his movement technique, the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm was able to increase his speed by leaps and bounds. As a Mid Rank Heavenly Axis Realm expert, he was quickly closing in on Chen Yi.

"Crap!"

"Burning Demon Body!" Chen Yi roared angrily as his body swelled up in an instant. His shirt was torn to pieces, revealing layers of muscles, revealing the feeling of his powerful body's strength.

Two vicious horns protruded from Chen Yi's forehead. Black flames surrounded Chen Yi, making him look like a Two-Horned Demon man emerging from a black flame.

"This is …" The Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm expert was dumbstruck. He never thought that Chen Yi would undergo such a drastic change. His aura surged, giving him a sense of danger.

"It's a special bloodline …" 'This kid actually activated a special bloodline … '

This doesn't seem to be the Chen family's special bloodline. In other words, it's a mutated one?" The Zhang Clan's Heavenly Completion Stage martial artist took a deep breath and then revealed a look of jealousy. He was a dignified Heavenly Axis Realm with no special blood or talent, but he had already reached the end of the intermediate level. He was just a kid with only four meridians, but he was still a piece of trash.

"Serves you right for dying for me!" In his jealousy, the Zhang Clan's Heavenly Axis Realm expert wished even more that Chen Yi would die without a shred of guilt.

In this life or death situation, Chen Yi could only reveal the [White Rainbow Sun Piercing Sword] and hold the [White Rainbow Sun Piercing Sword] in his hand, exuding a solemn aura.

"Rushing the clouds to see the sun!"

The power of the [White Rainbow Sunpierce Sword] was half of what it used when he performed the [Violet Rain Sword]!

"Superior Mortal grade weapon!" No, no, it's a Quasi-Earth Tier Divine Weapon! " A look of astonishment appeared on his face.
