The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 3149: Chapter 3144: One Mountain Cannot Contain Two Tigers_1

Yang Chen noticed that Ji Yue Shuang genuinely worried for his sake and felt warmth in his heart.

He and Ji Yue Shuang did not have any romantic feelings for each other, nor did she have such feelings for him. But he could sense another type of emotion between them.

That was friendship, sincerity, trust between each other.

Seeing her concern, Yang Chen responded gently, "I apologize for making Miss Ji worry. I just wanted to seek an audience with my respected master."

"No problem. My family master is also very worried about Brother Yang Chen." Ji Yue Shuang smiled softly.

Witnessing this, Murong Qi felt a pang in her heart. She knew that she was exceptional within her own faction but was insignificant in the Taiyuan Star System.

Not mentioning that she had already fallen out of the top fifty of the Daluo Celestial Monument, Mo Wanchou had completely disregarded her and easily humiliated her. The female cultivator she met upon entering the Divine Night Sect had a stronger aura of cultivation.

Compared to them, she was too weak. If not for following Yang Chen here, she could hardly imagine what would have happened to her.

Now, Yang Chen was leading Murong Qi and Ji Yue Shuang towards the summit.

Just as they entered the palace, Yang Chen happened to come across Bei Hongwang reporting his return.

"Alright, I got it. We couldn’t have predicted how things would turn out. This palace will personally take action to check whether my friend Yang Chen is still safe...huh? Yang Chen, my friend, you are already back."

At this moment, Princess Wenqi was listening to Bei Hongwang’s report, preparing to take action herself. But before she could finish speaking, Yang Chen had already appeared in front of her.

Yang Chen naturally heard what Princess Wenqi had said, sighed inwardly, wondering why he was so fortunate to have her care so much for him.

"Brother Yang Chen, I..." Bei Hongwang, looking at Yang Chen’s return, was full of apology.

After all, back then, he had abandoned Yang Chen and run away on his own.

Yang Chen didn’t feel resentful towards Bei Hongwang, but he found it hard to speak up kindly when looking at him.

"Brother Bei Hongwang need not explain. I understand." Yang Chen said.

Princess Wenqi wore a look of surprise, unable to believe Yang Chen could escape from such an intense siege. Furthermore, he managed to bring someone back with him.

The most crucial point was that Yang Chen could follow Bei Hongwang, rushing back like lightning. It showed how extraordinary his combat capabilities were.

"Bei Hong, you may leave first," Princess Wenqi said.

Bei Hongwang immediately bowed and left.

Ji Yue Shuang gritted her teeth and said, "Master, this Mo Wanchou is just too overbearing and arrogant. Before this, he has also spoken rudely to your disciple. I really want to slap him to death. As a member of the Grand Abyss Palace, he doesn’t seem to do much work, but bullies men and women everywhere."

"Regarding Mo Wanchou, bear with it if you can. He will become a Heavenly Extreme Realm cultivator in the future, which holds great significance for the Grand Abyss Palace. Even if he behaves inappropriately, we still need to put up with it. Otherwise, we will touch the Grand Abyss Palace’s reverse scales, and things might get out of hand. At the moment, the alien tribes are restless, and our Three Great Factions must brace ourselves. Any faction encountering problems might lead to the alien tribes taking advantage of the situation. The Grand Abyss Palace is not discerning, but we cannot afford to not understand the stakes," said Princess Wenqi.

"Master, I understand," Ji Yue Shuang sighed softly, feeling helpless.

Princess Wenqi looked at Yang Chen again, and kindly said, "Yang Chen, I hope you understand this as well. Although talking about this now might upset you, I’m saying this for your own good. Since the events have passed, it’s better not to dwell on them. Otherwise, there will be no benefits for you."

Yang Chen nodded his head: "Yes, junior understands."

He said as much on the surface, but he could not be sure in his heart.

Can the matter really be resolved like this?

This Mo Wanchou didn’t seem like someone who would let things go so easily. The killing intent he had towards Yang Chen was not simple, it was as if Yang Chen had stepped on his tail.

"Now that you have returned, are there anything you want to tell me?" Princess Wenqi asked, her eyes bright as water.

Yang Chen said, "This is my friend, Murong Qi. Miss Murong, you should pay your respects to Senior Wenqi."

Murong Qi, standing next to them, naturally noticed the strong aura of Princess Wenqi and immediately bowed, "Junior pays respect to Senior Wenqi."

Initially, she thought Yang Chen was bragging, but since coming to the Divine Night Sect, she had seen many powerful figures and began to believe that the Divine Night Sect was not inferior to the Grand Abyss Palace.

Princess Wenqi looked at Murong Qi with a calm attitude, only nodding slightly.

Although Murong Qi was quite exceptional, she was clearly a few levels lower compared to Yang Chen. In Princess Wenqi’s opinion, there was no need to pay her much attention.

She had lived for countless years, coming across quite a few such existences. In her eyes, there was no need to overly care about them-

Yang Chen said, "Miss Murong possesses outstanding talent and has long admired the Divine Night Sect. I wonder if senior can accommodate Miss Murong..."

Princess Wenqi scoffed, "Yang Chen, what do you take this palace for?"

Yang Chen knew that this matter might be too much for Princess Wenqi to handle. After all, what qualifications did he have so that Princess Wenqi would accommodate him while also taking care of his friends?

However, the next moment, Princess Wenqi said, "But Yang Chen, I’ll give you face. I will accept this Murong Qi. However, her talent still falls a bit short to be my disciple, so she can start as an ordinary disciple of the Divine Night Sect. Murong Qi, do you have any objections?"

Murong Qi naturally did not dare to hope for too much, understanding that even being an ordinary disciple was very rare. Even if she had entered the Grand Abyss Palace, she would not have been in a better situation.

She quickly expressed her gratitude and respectfully said, "Thank you, Senior Wenqi, for giving me this opportunity."

"No need to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank Yang Chen. He has contributed a lot to the Divine Night Sect. The palace just now decided to be lenient. Otherwise, the conditions for recruiting disciples in the Divine Night Sect have always been strict. Your talent just barely passes, and you still have to go through other assessments and evaluations," said Princess Wenqi.

Murong Qi naturally knew the role Yang Chen played. Her gaze towards Yang Chen was filled with diverse emotions, admiration, and a hint of hidden affection.

"Junior has also thanked Senior Wenqi," Yang Chen said gratefully as he saw Princess Wenqi agreed.

"Don’t hurry to thank me. Since you’ve offended Mo Wanchou, it’s going to be difficult for you to get into the Grand Abyss Palace. Even if you enter, two tigers cannot share a mountain. You and Mo Wanchou will have to engage in an intense power struggle. This palace doesn’t need to tell you these things, as you must already be extremely aware of it. Since you have brought your friend into the Divine Night Sect, what about you?" asked Princess Wenqi.

"Yang Chen, what are you still hesitating for?" Ji Yue Shuang, whose relationship with Yang Chen had grown closer and closer, pouted and chided him.
