The journey back was particularly smooth. Zhan Chen had already broken through the five-star earth star realm and his speed had exceeded three times the speed of light. However, in order to take care of Zang Qing, he suppressed his speed to less than three times the speed of light.
Moreover, Zhan Chen discovered that although his cultivation level was improving rapidly, his flying speed was getting slower and slower. There seemed to be a huge bottleneck here. No matter how hard he tried, his flying speed could never get faster.
He felt strange about this phenomenon, so he tried to ask Zang Qing on the side.
"Senior Brother"
Zang Qing waved his hand and said, "You haven't changed your words yet. Now that my cultivation level is lower than yours, I should call you senior brother."
"Haha, you are older than me, and I respect you as you should. If you really mind, I will call you Brother Zang."
"Okay, Zhan Chen, can you ask me something?"
"Yes, although I am proficient in the secret of light, I feel that my speed has not improved much. Is my cultivation not enough?"
Zang Qing waved his hand and said: "Brother Zhan, you don't know something. This is the limitation of our Earth Star Realm experts. No matter how we improve our Earth Star Realm powerhouses and understand the mysteries of light, our speed cannot exceed five times."
The speed of light, and the speed of a strong person in the stellar realm cannot exceed ten times the speed of light."
"Why is that? Isn't it true that the greater the power, the faster the speed?"
"The theory is like this, but there are certain rules in this universe that limit the speed of us cultivators. I don't know much about these rules."
Zhan Chen stopped talking. Zang Qing's answer made him unsatisfied. He didn't get the answer he needed, but his cultivation level was still very low. The universe was endless and there were still many things he didn't know. He believed
As long as he steadily improves his cultivation, he will eventually have time to unravel them one by one, so he no longer dwells on this issue.
Unknowingly, the two of them returned to Taihao Star. Zang Qing was about to land at the coordinates of the Beast King Valley, but Zhan Chen stopped and said to him: "Brother Zang, let's say goodbye."
Zang Qing turned around and asked in surprise: "Why, you don't know how to sect?"
Zhan Chen nodded and said: "I have to go to other places, and I won't join the sect for the time being. If the master asks about me, please explain it to me."
Zang Qing smiled and said: "Okay, but I don't think Elder Chang will ask you about it. You also know that the management of our sect is surprisingly loose. The elders are busy with their own affairs and rarely care about the lives of our disciples."
.”
Zhan Chen cupped his hands and said, "Then I'm leaving."
So the two separated, and Zhan Chen was thinking all the way after leaving Zang Qing: "My cultivation level has improved too fast. Now that I return to the sect, I will definitely attract everyone's attention, especially Lin Qiusheng's attention."
, although I already have the cultivation level of the five-star earth star realm, it is still far behind Lin Qiu's birth, and Wenwen should still be in seclusion to break through the two-star earth star realm now. I won't be able to see her when I go back, so now I still
It’s not the time to go back.”
It was precisely because of this idea that Zhan Chen decided not to go back for the time being. Moreover, he had other selfish motives, that is, he had been away from Tunyun City and Wanfa Star for a long time, and now he had made some achievements in cultivation.
It also has a certain ability to protect itself. It’s time to go back and take a look.
So, Zhan Chen headed in the direction of Tunyun City. About a day later, he landed in front of Tunyun City. What he saw was an astonishing scene. Most of the city had collapsed, but among the ruins there were already
Several buildings were erected.
"What happened in Tunyun City!" Zhan Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten. The first thing he thought of was Lin Mengdie's safety, so he hurriedly flew in the direction of Lin Mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he saw several people from the Lin family maintaining order. It happened that one of them was his master Lin Shuwen, and he quickly greeted him and said, "Hello, master."
Lin Shuwen turned around and was very surprised to see Zhan Chen and said, "Zhan Chen is you, but why can't I see through your cultivation?"
Zhan Chen said: "Master, I have encountered some adventures in my travels in the past few years, and now I have become a powerful person in the five-star earth-star realm."
"What, the five-star earth star realm!" Lin Shuwen was startled, and then a trace of loneliness appeared on his face, and he sighed: "Oh, I am so old."
Zhan Chen hurriedly said: "Master, don't say that. I have a lot of pills to improve my cultivation. I give them to you. You will definitely be able to break through."
Lin Shuwen waved his hand and said: "No need, my potential has not been reached yet. The right way is to rely on my own cultivation to make breakthroughs slowly."
"That's right, master, what happened? How did Tunyun City become like this?" Zhan Chen asked the question in his heart.
Lin Shuwen was stunned for a moment and sighed: "Oh, it's really hard to explain. Our Tunyun City was attacked by a group of fierce bandits called the Black Wind Army."
"What, it's them? Are there any casualties among our people?"
Lin Shuwen frowned and said: "More than a hundred tribesmen died and more than five hundred were injured, but fortunately we had crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Tunyun City. At the critical moment, a hermit with advanced cultivation took action and repelled them.
"
"So how is Lin Mengdie? I mean, how is Elder Lin Gutian's family?"
Lin Shuwen naturally knew about the relationship between Zhan Chen and Lin Mengdie, and said, "Don't worry, they are fine. The Black Wind Army just attacked the building in the direction of the city lord's palace."
"That's good, that's good!" Zhan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Teacher, I want to go back and check the situation."
"Well, go ahead."
After leaving Lin Shuwen, Zhan Chen hurried back to Lin Gutian's mansion and found that it was intact. He finally let go of his worries and entered the mansion. Zhan Chen immediately asked the maid: "Where is Lin Mengdie?"
"Uncle, the lady is in her boudoir."
"Okay!" Zhan Chen hurried to Lin Mengdie's boudoir. As soon as he entered the door, he saw her sitting in front of the dressing table. He quickly went up to hold her hand and said, "Mengdie, fortunately you are okay."
Lin Mengdie was also pleasantly surprised when she saw Zhan Chen coming back, and said, "Zhan Chen, you are finally back. Do you know that something terrible happened in our Tunyun City a few days ago?"
"I know, I happened to meet the master at the city gate just now, and he told me everything. By the way, why did the Black Wind Army suddenly attack Tunyun City? Didn't they suffer a devastating blow before?"
Upon hearing his question, Lin Mengdie gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "It's not the traitor Lin Yue who did this."
"Lin Yue." Zhan Chen was startled and asked, "What's wrong with her? Hasn't she already escaped from the Lin family?"
"Lin Yue went to join the Black Wind Army after escaping from the Lin family. This time she led the Black Wind Army to attack us. The leader of the Black Wind Army, Li Fengying, is a master of the five-star earth and star realm. No one in our Lin family can fight against him.
, it’s strange to say that at the critical moment, the owner of a hotel in the city suddenly took action and defeated Li Fengying.”
"Boss?" Zhan Chen couldn't help but think of the small hotel Jiang Qi had taken him to, and the taste of Qingling wine was still fresh in his memory. Jiang Qi's cultivation was unfathomable, and he guessed at that time
The hotel owner was also an expert hermit. It was probably the hotel owner who saved Tunyun City this time. He asked again, "So is Li Fengying dead?"
Lin Yue shook her head and replied: "The hermit only repelled Li Fengying but did not kill him. Now Li Fengying and the Black Wind Army are missing. Afterwards, we went to find the hermit and wanted to thank him in person.
But he can’t be found either.”
Zhan Chen's heart sank. The hermit had left. The next time the Black Wind Army came to kill, there would be no one to protect Tunyun City. Moreover, he also knew the obsession of this woman Lin Yue. She would definitely come back to harm the Lin family.
, then said: "Mengdie, this woman Lin Yue is too scary. She is obviously from our Lin family, but unexpectedly she attracted the Black Wind Army to attack us."
"Yes, she committed the serious crime of killing her clan members, but she didn't want to repent. Now she has attracted violent bandits to seek revenge. This woman is simply a lunatic. She has made everyone in Tunyun City panic."
Seeing her worry, Zhan Chen comforted her: "Don't worry Mengdie, I won't let them be arrogant again now that I'm back."
"You" Lin Mengdie then realized that she couldn't clearly see Zhan Chen's cultivation. Although her current cultivation was also at the Earth Star level, it was far worse than Zhan Chen's today.
"Haha, let me tell you good news. I am already a five-star earth-star realm expert." Zhan Chen said with a smile, and he couldn't suppress the pride in his heart at this moment.
"Five-star" Lin Mengdie was completely shocked and covered her mouth with her hands. There were many cultivation geniuses among her tribe, but she could not find anyone like her husband.
"Well, yes."
"So doesn't it mean that you are stronger than all the strong men in our clan now?"
Zhan Chen smiled and said nothing.
"That's great, I'm really proud of you!" Lin Mengdie jumped into Zhan Chen's arms, rubbed his neck and kissed him.
Zhan Chen felt a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Okay, stop making trouble." He finally pulled her away.
"No, I must tell Grandpa and the others this good news!" Lin Mengdie said and flew out of the house.
Soon after, Lin Mengdie and his family gathered in the living room, while Zhan Chen was pulled to sit next to Lin Gutian. It was obvious that he was already on par with the ancestor of the Lin family. This world is dominated by the strong.
Because of his respect, it is not surprising that Zhan Chen's status was suddenly raised so high.
Lin Gutian smiled and said to Zhan Chen: "Zhan Chen, I didn't expect your cultivation to grow so fast. You also know that with you here, our Tunyun City will definitely be much safer."
Zhan Chen said sternly: "Now the Lin family is my family. There is no need for any reason to protect my family. I not only want to protect the Lin family and Tunyun City, but I also want to take the initiative to destroy the Black Wind Army!"
After hearing what he said, Lin Gutian was shocked and asked: "Zhan Chen, are you sure? We need to know whether the demon girl Li Fengying has the cultivation level of the five-star earth star realm."
"What are you afraid of? I also have the cultivation level of the Five-Star Earth Star Realm, and I am alone. It's time to settle old and new grudges together!" Zhan Chen said loudly.
