Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3713 - 3732: Heaven Deity Day, Joint Celebration
Lin Chen was still considering where to find a suitable target for robbery when Heavenly Crane Sect summoned him with a message.
Lin Chen swiftly returned to Heavenly Crane Sect and found the sect master, Yu Qianfan, who had sent the message.
"Sect Master, I wonder what instructions you have for summoning me back?"
Yu Qianfan laughed and said, "You’re out there all day. Have you encountered any danger?"
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I travel with friends, several of them are Saints. Who would have nothing better to do than cause us trouble?"
Yu Qianfan had met Duanmu Wen, Charming Erosion, and An Wenwei and knew of their strong combat power. He laughed, "I’m quite curious, what do you and your friends keep busy with?"
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Traveling, exploring mysteries, doing some trading, earning cultivation resources."
The protection fee from Wolong Sect, isn’t that just doing some trading?
Previously, searching for various needs for the Creation God, our footprints spread across major regions — isn’t that traveling?
Lin Chen wasn’t lying at all!
Yu Qianfan was curious, but he couldn’t delve too deeply. Now Lin Chen was already a Saint and held a special position in Heavenly Crane Sect, even surpassing him as sect leader.
In other words, if something were to happen to him as the sect leader of Heavenly Crane Sect, replacing him with another powerhouse might affect the sect, but not by much. However, if Lin Chen left Heavenly Crane Sect, the impact on the sect would be much greater.
Heavenly Crane Sect can do without Yu Qianfan, but it cannot do without Lin Chen.
Although Heavenly Crane Sect had accepted Lin Chen, from beginning to end, the sect hadn’t really contributed much. In contrast, they gained a lot from Lin Chen, making Yu Qianfan feel a vague sense of embarrassment and guilt, like an adult stealing candy from a child.
Yu Qianfan nodded, "It seems like you’ve fully adapted to life in the Divine Realm now."
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "In the survival of the fittest, the strong ones rule. As long as I’m strong enough and capable enough, others wouldn’t dare to speak to me disrespectfully."
Yu Qianfan laughed, "That’s right. This time I’m calling you back because our Eleventh District is having a joint celebration with the neighboring Thirteenth District. Are you interested in participating?"
Joint celebration? 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Lin Chen curiously asked, "What’s the celebration about?"
Yu Qianfan replied, "Our Eleventh District’s Earth God and Thirteenth District’s Fire God have a great relationship, comparable to brothers. They stood side by side in battle during the Saint Fallen Generation, seizing a battle together, and ultimately, each obtained a Divine Status suitable for their own attributes."
"This day is known as the birth anniversary for both the Earth God and the Fire God. It is also the day of the Heaven Deities for both Eleventh District and Thirteenth District."
"Because the Heaven Deities day is the same, and given the good relationship between the two Heaven Deities, every 500 years, a joint celebration is held between the two realms to celebrate the birth anniversary of the two Heaven Deities."
"The two districts take turns hosting the joint celebration. Last time it was in our Eleventh District. This time it’s in the Thirteenth District. The Holy Land and all major Heavenly Sects from the Eleventh District have been invited."
"We discussed it a bit and decided to join in the lively event. After all, during each joint celebration, the two Heaven Deities bestow many good things. Some are directly awarded to predetermined forces or individuals, while others are used as prizes for various activities."
"Although you might not necessarily get a prize, it’s important to participate. Moreover, the joint celebration is very lively, with powerhouses gathered from both districts, making it a rare grand event."
Fire God?
Earth God?
Lin Chen was moved; these two are the Divine Status attributes most suitable for him!
Last time, when the Fire God was dealing with the Creation God, the Creation God self-destructed. According to the Creation God, the Fire God was definitely seriously injured, and his strength must be compromised. If action had to be taken, the Fire God would be the best target.
The Earth God had once plotted against the Chen Ancestor. Although the Chen Ancestor appeared very carefree, embodying the spirit of "king’s conquest and defeat," Lin Chen, who inherited the Chen Ancestor’s legacy, still thought about taking down the Earth God and even becoming the new Earth God to make the Chen Ancestor happy.
"Since it’s a joint celebration for the two Heaven Deities, will they attend?"
Yu Qianfan nodded and said, "Yes, not only will they show up, but people who perform excellently in the activities will also receive an audience with the two Heaven Deities, listening to their guidance up close. Furthermore, everyone who meets the Heaven Deities will be rewarded with an item."
Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "That sounds great. What kind of items are given?"
"Perhaps medicinal pills, magical treasures, cultivation techniques, or divine powers. It’s not certain. It depends on what the Heaven Deities have in mind."
Yu Qianfan’s eyes gleamed, "Many people participate just for this audience event, hoping to see the Heaven Deities up close. If they have the opportunity to gain the favor of the Heaven Deities, they will be in for a great fortune."
Lin Chen hesitated slightly, wondering if facing the Heaven Deities might expose him.
If the presence of the Creation God were sensed by the two Heaven Deities, then he’d be in a lot of trouble.
Lin Chen was about to refuse, but then reconsidered. The Heavenly God Department’s Array Formation was constantly running. If the Creation God were detectable, the Heaven Deities would have acted long ago.
Sooner or later, he would have to confront these Heaven Deities. Why not take this opportunity to observe and learn more, gathering information on the Heaven Deities’ preferences? That way, he could have more information to use against them if necessary.
"I’ll go!"
With this in mind, Lin Chen no longer hesitated, "I’d like to see the grandeur of the Heaven Deities, but as someone from a different race, appearing at the celebration might make me quite noticeable and provoke targeting from others."
Yu Qianfan laughed, "God Day is an abbreviation for the birth anniversary of Heaven Deities, signifying their descent into the world on this day. It’s an event celebrated universally. Even if someone looks down on those from different races, they wouldn’t cause trouble on this day."
"Moreover, now that you’re an Elder of Heavenly Crane Sect, even if someone has issues with you, they should restrain themselves a bit. After all, we are guests."
Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, when do we set off?"
Yu Qianfan replied, "There’s still half a month left. I just wanted to give you a heads-up in advance."
Lin Chen casually asked, "Who else is going? Is Huo Lingshuang going?"
Yu Qianfan nodded, "I’ll personally lead the team, with Zhao Yilong, Zhang Chenghu, Huo Lingshuang, and you. Then there’s a group of core disciples with considerable strength, such as Xue Gang, Zhu Fangling, etc. Such a big occasion, these disciples should definitely get the experience."
Xue Gang and Zhu Fangling are the most powerful Sub-Saint disciples besides Huo Lingshuang. Previously, during a conflict with Cang Mang Sect, when Lin Chen returned to Heavenly Crane Sect, they were the backup he brought.
The plan was to catch Cang Mang Sect off guard but unexpectedly, they hid a Demon named Luo Mufeng, and Xue Gang ended up getting beaten badly and vomited blood. Zhu Fangling didn’t even get a chance to go on stage.
After so many years, both Lin Chen and Huo Lingshuang are Saints, among the Sect Elders, while the two on the other side remain Sub-Saint disciples. Reflecting on these life events can’t help but make one sigh.
Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, I’ll follow the arrangements."
