Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3725 - 3744: Learn a Skill—You’ll Need It Someday
The Star Chart Spirit is very haughty towards the Saints, but in the face of a Heaven Deity, it acts like an obedient child.
Because those who are not obedient are all dead.
The Heaven Deity won’t indulge you. It won’t say, if you refuse to submit to me and serve me, that I will hand you over to others and try my luck again.
If you’re unwilling to submit to me, then there’s no need for you to exist.
If you submit to someone else but not to me, then where would be my face?
Facing the inquiry from the Creation God, the Star Chart Spirit chickened out directly.
The Creation God took only a few breaths to impose some restrictions on the Star Chart Spirit, then absorbed it into the Purple Crystal Mark.
"Done?"
The Creation God nodded: "Done."
Lin Chen smirked: "Heaven Deities are really formidable; when I acquired it back then, it wasn’t this easy."
"When you obtained the Star Chart Spirit, you weren’t even a Saint. The fact that it cooperated with you was an anomaly. I’ve never seen anyone with strength below a Saint’s subdue the Star Chart Spirit."
Lin Chen laughed softly: "That makes sense."
Lin Chen pondered in his heart, perhaps it was the Great Wilderness Saint who had imprisoned the Star Chart Spirit for too long. If it hadn’t cooperated, it would have been indefinitely imprisoned, and I happened to show up at the right time.
After it left with me, it originally wanted to leave, but the Great Wilderness Saint used a method to seal it in my Sea of Knowledge, so it stayed with me.
The Star Chart Spirit was born from the Universe, its lifespan limitless and indifferent to time. Although it has been with Lin Chen for many years, for it, this period might be shorter than a human blinking an eye.
"What about them?"
The Creation God replied nonchalantly: "Aren’t they your enemies? Just kill them."
Lin Chen said with a laugh: "No need to kill. Seal their strength and imprison them in the Void Pearl. After all, if they die, the Black Emperor Palace would surely know, and then it would probably lead to other troubles."
The Creation God waved his hand dismissively: "If you don’t wish to kill, do as you please. I’ve got what I needed; now it’s time to find a chance to go to the Heavenly God Department."
Lin Chen nodded: "I’ll keep that in mind. Once the celebration is over, I’ll start preparing."
The Creation God responded: "No need for too much preparation; just one problem to solve — how to enter the Heavenly God Department without drawing suspicion. After all, the Array Formation is heavily guarded, and sneaking in quietly is not easy."
"Of course, I could force my way in if I’ve completed the objective, but if not, it’s troublesome. I’d be besieged, repeating past failures."
Lin Chen laughed: "There’s always a solution. Though the Heavenly God Department is strict, it’s not seamless. Last time, when I wanted to return to the Immortal Realm, wasn’t it sorted by bribing with Divine Crystals?"
"The person was the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, yet he still wanted such money, indicating how rotten the whole Heavenly God Department is. With careful research, surely, we could find some who’d risk it for Divine Crystals."
The Creation God wore a peculiar expression: "Was it when we met that time?"
Lin Chen answered: "Yes, it was. Had I not offered millions of Divine Crystals, why would someone take an unrelated person, especially a member of Different Races, on official business to the Immortal Realm?"
The Creation God laughed: "Great, great. The rot in the Heavenly God Department is promising. I was worried before, but it seems it’s not as difficult as I thought."
Lin Chen nodded: "Sure, though not implemented yet, I’m sure there’s a way. We’ll explore and find solutions slowly."
Lin Chen stood up, clapped his hands: "Alright, you enjoy your tea. I’m off."
Lin Chen took Liu Xian and Zhao Tianjue into the Void Pearl and handed them over to the jail guards.
Knowing they temporarily wouldn’t die and with the Creation God not around, both Liu Xian and Zhao Tianjue felt more at ease.
Zhao Tianjue stared at Lin Chen unwillingly and said: "Why are you so close with the Creation God?"
Lin Chen laughed: "I helped him return to the Heavenly God Realm, helped his broken Divine Status recover its true body. He has a Heavenly God Contract with me; he can’t do anything to me, so naturally, we are just friends."
Zhao Tianjue widened his eyes: "What do you plan to do next, Godslayer?"
Lin Chen laughed: "If they don’t die, how will I and my family ascend to godhood?"
Zhao Tianjue and Liu Xian widened their eyes in horror, looking at Lin Chen as if seeing a demon of Hell.
"The Creation God is just one; he faces seventeen other Heaven Deities. You can’t win; you’ll be obliterated!"
Lin Chen smiled slightly: "You won’t know until you try. When I was a weak cultivator, who took me seriously? Yet I grew into a Saint. Who took notice of a member of Different Races when I arrived at the Heavenly God Realm? Yet I’m thriving here now."
"Alright, enjoy your long stay here. There are many professional books, study something if bored. You might come in handy one day."
Liu Xian and Zhao Tianjue’s expressions were gloomy. They were top figures in the Heavenly God Realm, strutting with impunity, yet here they were, humiliated by a Different Races kid they looked down upon, almost falling. The disparity was unbearable for them.
Lin Chen ignored their emotions, turned around, left Linglong Tower, and sent a message to Yu Qianfan, directly backtracking.
Yu Qianfan didn’t ask what Lin Chen had done, just inquired about the success, then let Lin Chen leave.
On the small balcony, Lin Chen released Huo Lingshuang.
Huo Lingshuang’s eyes widened, seeing the familiar scene in front: "Back? Is it done?"
Lin Chen nodded: "Yes."
Huo Lingshuang subconsciously lowered her voice: "What about Zhao Tianjue?"
Lin Chen laughed: "Resolved. He won’t appear again."
Huo Lingshuang roughly guessed Zhao Tianjue was either dead or sealed and imprisoned in Linglong Tower.
Huo Lingshuang knew the power of Linglong Tower, where many of Lin Chen’s enemies were imprisoned.
When it was inconvenient or Lin Chen didn’t want to kill them, he would imprison them in Linglong Tower. After all, weren’t those grandmasters and masters in the Wolong Sect formerly imprisoned captives?
"With Zhao Tianjue’s downfall, what reaction will the Black Emperor Palace have?"
Lin Chen laughed softly: "Why care about their reaction? Zhao Tianjue didn’t inform the Black Emperor Palace of my affairs. Only he and Zhao Muran knew. Now Zhao Muran is in the Holy Domain, and with Zhao Tianjue gone, the rest of Black Emperor Palace has no idea of my existence..."
