Eternal Heart

Chapter 1356: Cousin, That’s Him

Outside the cave dwelling, a burly man was firmly glued to the ground, unable to get up.

Another young man hurriedly left in a panic.

Before long, the young man arrived at a quiet courtyard, knelt in front of one of the halls, and nervously said, "Young Master Murong, I have something to report."

"Didn’t I instruct you to keep watch outside Miss Luo Feng’s cave dwelling? You were supposed to notify me immediately when she returns from seclusion. Why are you back here?"

A displeased rebuke came from within the hall.

The young man kneeling on the ground shivered even more and said, "The Ice Lotus Emperor hasn’t returned, but a stranger has entered her cave dwelling!"

"A stranger entered Miss Luo Feng’s cave dwelling?"

The door swung open instantly, and a blue-robed man walked out slowly. He had sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a proud nose, exuding a sharp aura from head to toe.

If Chen Yu were here, he would surely recognize this blue-robed man as "Murong Can Guang" from the Murong Family. During a visit to the Lin Family, some grudges had arisen between them.

"Luo Feng is now the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Martial Sect, a position of high status. Even an elder within the sect would not dare to forcibly enter her cave dwelling without reason."

"Do you remember the appearance of that person?"

The blue-robed man "Murong Can Guang" asked coldly.

"I remember..."

The young man replied hastily.

But as he recalled, he suddenly realized that the image of that stranger in his memory was becoming increasingly vague, and he couldn’t remember the person’s face.

How could this be?

"Useless!"

Murong Can Guang snorted coldly, and an invisible pressure filled with sharp Sword Qi spread, causing the young man to shiver even more.

"Could it be that he has returned?"

"Impossible, Chen Yu should already be dead!"

Murong Can Guang furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought.

Chen Yu was indeed once the foremost prodigy of the Heavenly Martial Sect, with boundless prospects.

But Chen Yu had disappeared for decades.

There had been news that a Heavenly Union Realm expert from the Silver Soul Clan had targeted Chen Yu and sent out four Divine Guards.

In Murong Can Guang’s view, Chen Yu was surely long dead.

"Chen Yu, you might as well be dead, I’ll take care of your woman for you!"

Mourong Can Guang said with eyes full of resentment.

The last time he and the Night God Temple’s genius "Wei Yan" joined forces, they were defeated by Chen Yu. He still remembered this painful scene vividly.

Only by obtaining Ye Luofeng could he dispel the shadow in his heart.

And Ye Luofeng’s talent might make her the Sky Martial Sect Master in the future, then half of the Sky Martial Sect would belong to the Murong Family.

"Even when beating a dog, you have to look at its master. I, Young Master, will see who is so bold!"

After saying that, Murong Can Guang flew out and headed towards Ye Luofeng’s cave dwelling. .

Upon arrival, Murong Can Guang saw another one of his subordinates lying flat on the ground, like a tired dog.

"Young Master, save me..."

The burly man became extremely excited when he saw Murong Can Guang and immediately begged for mercy.

In his view, with Murong Can Guang here, the person who attacked him was bound to meet a miserable fate.

"Useless!"

Murong Can Guang kicked towards the burly man.

He could tell that the burly man was being suppressed by a force of spatial power.

The kick wasn’t full strength; otherwise, with his Peak of Early Xuanming Realm cultivation, he could have kicked the burly man to death.

He only intended to shatter the spatial power with this kick so the burly man could get up.

Bang!

Murong Can Guang’s sharp kick hit the burly man but passed through the surrounding spatial power.

The burly man’s body didn’t move a bit, but all the power of that kick acted on him, and the sound of bones breaking was heard immediately.

Puff!

The burly man spat blood on the spot and passed out.

Seeing this scene, Murong Can Guang felt a bit embarrassed, but fortunately, no one knew his thoughts just now.

"I am Murong Can Guang, who are you? Come out and meet me!"

Murong Can Guang said in a deep voice.

The other party’s methods were not simple, making him more cautious.

Inside the cave dwelling.

"So it’s Murong Can Guang."

Chen Yu had a slight impression of this person.

The Murong Family was one of the two Divine Realm Family forces of the Human Race, and Murong Can Guang was a potential Emperor of the Murong Family.

This Murong Can Guang had also been defeated by him before.

"This person failed to pursue Lin Yuxuan and now sets his eyes on Luo Feng?"

Chen Yu discerned something.

In the past, Chen Yu would have stepped out to resolve this matter.

But now, to avoid revealing his identity, he refrained from taking action and was not interested in teaching a lesson.

Murong Can Guang was merely at the Peak of Early Xuanming Realm, and here, in the Heavenly Martial Sect, Chen Yu did not need to appear himself to handle these trivial matters.

With nothing else to do, Chen Yu began cultivating.

Five years ago, he had broken through to the Heavenly Union Realm, and now, compared to before, his cultivation had improved slightly.

The greatest improvement was in the "Mixed Element Chaos World Technique."

Chen Yu had long finished cultivating the introductory section and was now working on the first layer.

The core of the "Mixed Element Chaos World Technique" is to comprehend multiple laws and wield multiple divine powers, each one accommodating the other, forming "Mixed Element Divine Power." This overwhelmingly strong and domineering divine power crushes everything.

The original Mixed Element God cultivated the laws of the Five Elements.

And the path Chen Yu walked was primarily with the Space Law, supplemented by the laws of gold, wood, water, and fire.

At present, aside from the Space Law, Chen Yu had successfully comprehended the "Law of Gold" and the "Law of Fire." The Water and Wood laws have yet to be understood, but it’s only a matter of time.

According to the inheritance, once Chen Yu successfully elevates the Profound Meaning to the level of law and condenses the "Mixed Element Divine Power," his divine power will be invincible at the same stage.

Chen Yu took out a smooth, dark blue bead, its inner depths quiet and profound, akin to an ocean world.

This is the "Crystal of Law," a cultivation artifact for comprehending laws, which Chen Yu found among Master Wou’s spoils of war.

Chen Yu’s divine soul consciousness merged into the dark blue bead, his mind and soul seemingly plunged into an endless deep sea. The surroundings were tranquil and deep, with a suffocating oppression.

The myriad mysteries of the Water Principle emerged in his mind.

Outside the cave dwelling.

Murong Can Guang waited for a long time, with no response from within.

"Showing respect and not getting any in return!"

The veins on his forehead bulged, and an astonishing sharpness burst forth, like a peerless sword about to be unsheathed.

"Go and inform the Heavenly Martial Sect authorities that a mysterious man has entered the Ice Lotus Emperor’s cave dwelling, and let them handle it!"

Murong Can Guang suppressed his anger and instructed.

Soon, a young man came running back, timidly saying, "Reporting to Young Master, the elder of the Heavenly Martial Sect said that perhaps you saw it wrong. Without an Identity Token, one cannot enter Ye Shaosong’s cave dwelling. If forced entry were attempted, even at the Mid Xuanming Realm, it would take quite an effort."

Murong Can Guang’s gaze instantly turned sharp.

Why would the high-ranking members of the Heavenly Martial Sect give him such an unreliable reply?

How could he, a dignified Emperor of Xuanming Realm, be mistaken?

"Could it be that the Heavenly Martial Sect dislikes me, disapproves of the alliance, and is doing this on purpose to drive me away?"

Murong Can Guang frowned deeply.

But how could he return empty-handed? After seeing Ye Luofeng’s true face, Murong Can Guang was determined to win her over. He quickly decided, "I, Murong Can Guang, will guard here. You shall not escape. When Miss Luo Feng returns, with solid evidence, let’s see how you talk your way out of it."

On second thought, this was also an opportunity for him to impress Ye Luofeng.

Thus, Murong Can Guang stood guard outside the cave dwelling.

Before long, however, a fine drizzle began to fall on Martial God Mountain, and Murong Can Guang felt a chill and dampness.

"What’s going on?"

As someone at the Peak of Early Xuanming Realm, feeling like this usually signified an anomaly.

As time passed, the outside of Ye Luofeng’s cave dwelling seemed to transform into a world of water and light, with infinite streams of water swirling all around, flowing endlessly.

Murong Can Guang felt his body and mind were heavy and oppressed, so he activated the Star Origin Holy Power for protection.

Immediately after, he discovered that the surrounding water could penetrate his Star Origin Holy Power, melding his power into the water stream and then seizing it.

Not only that, he sensed that all the water in his body was being drained in an instant, as if even his flesh and holy power were absorbed into that stream and taken away.

"What on earth is happening?"

Murong Can Guang was incredibly alarmed.

Too strange!

Whoosh!

Murong Can Guang quickly retreated, not daring to get too close to Ye Luofeng’s cave dwelling.

Just then, he saw a dignified golden-haired man standing on a nearby low peak, and he immediately flew over, greeting him, "Brother Guan."

"So it’s Young Master Can Guang. Are you still comfortable staying at the Heavenly Martial Sect?"

The golden-haired man’s gaze swept over indifferently.

"It’s fine, but I have one matter. I hope Brother Guan can clarify. Outside Miss Luo Feng’s cave dwelling, are there often strange occurrences?"

Murong Can Guang asked.

"Junior Sister Ye and Junior Sister Lin are known as the two stunning prodigies of the Heavenly Martial Sect. It’s normal for strange things to happen near their cave dwellings."

The golden-haired man explained indifferently.

"That’s not the case!"

Murong Can Guang was about to continue explaining.

At this moment, someone interrupted his voice.

"Cousin!"

In the distance, a golden-clothed woman and a white-dressed woman slowly flew over.

But strangely, both women’s faces were severely swollen.

"Cousin, you must do me justice."

The white-dressed woman, Guan Xiaodie, quickly came to the golden-haired man’s side, crying.

"What happened?"

The golden-haired man, Guan Hongri, frowned slightly.

Within the family, only his cousin Guan Xiaodie had the best talent and planned to join the Heavenly Martial Sect in the future.

Now, with Guan Hongri’s connections, Guan Xiaodie and her mother resided in the Heavenly Martial Sect. Although they were just family members, they enjoyed a good cultivation environment.

Guan Hongri also knew that Guan Xiaodie, relying on her identity, was very arrogant and domineering at the lower levels of the Heavenly Martial Sect but was too lazy to manage it.

After all, there were already very few people in the sect he dared not offend.

"Those two bastards scared my Red Fire Qilin Lion and..."

After Guan Xiaodie finished telling the story, she was even more in tears.

In fact, Guan Hongri originally didn’t intend to intervene, but upon learning that it was under Hong Xiuyuan’s command, he couldn’t help but think of another person, Hong Xiuyuan’s junior brother, Chen Yu!

"Rest assured, Cousin will help you get this revenge."

Guan Hongri said coldly.

Hong Xiuyuan was really audacious, daring to humiliate his family like this.

Hong Xiuyuan was the disciple of the Sky Martial Sect Master, making him difficult to deal with, but dealing with a few family members was easy.

At this point, the rain stopped.

Guan Xiaodie suddenly noticed a straight-backed black-robed man walking out of a pavilion on a distant mountain, looking composed and casual.

Wasn’t this the bastard blocking my Red Fire Qilin Lion the other day?

Guan Xiaodie’s eyes flared with rage as she shouted, "Cousin, that’s him! He scared my Red Fire Qilin Lion and made my mother and me slap each other!
