Chapter 478: Chapter 477, Little one, call me uncle to prove it_1
Filippa shook her head.
Swordsman, you will never understand, nor will you ever get it, but does it have anything to do with me? Since you are so protective, then...
Filippa looked at Angelina. "Auntie... You really won’t come back home with me?"
"No, I feel safe only with Little Chen."
"Alright then, I will keep this matter secret for you, even from my own mother, but... forget it. We’ll talk about it when you ascend to Demigod."
Filippa took out a communication device and handed it to Angelina. "If you encounter any danger, contact me at any time."
Angelina placed the communication device into her Badge.
"Mhm, I got it."
Filippa looked at Jiang Chen and also gave him a communication device. "If you need anything, look for me. And thank you for protecting my aunt."
Jiang Chen nodded and then said, "I am Angelina’s husband; shouldn’t you call me ’uncle’?"
Filippa’s eyes widened in disbelief. Her hands trembled with anger as she instantly snatched back the communication device.
There’s only one word I want to say to him: Scram! A Level 200 youngster wants me to call him ’uncle’? Doesn’t he know who he is? Kid, you must be tired of living!
Jiang Chen watched Filippa’s angry expression and smiled. "If you can’t bring yourself to say it, that’s okay. I won’t force you."
So what if she’s a Prosecutor? I’m still her damn uncle!
Filippa clenched her fists. If Angelina hadn’t been there, Filippa would have attacked him on the spot.
Filippa said coldly, "I quite admire your arrogance."
"It’s not arrogance if it’s the truth," Jiang Chen replied.
Angelina laughed. "Okay, Little Chen, that’s enough. When I recover my memory, I will take you home."
Filippa looked disdainful. "Do you think it’s easy to enter the Bruce Clan? Despite being a Prosecutor, I’m only on the periphery of the Bruce Clan. Unless you become a Divine being, you have no right to step into the Bruce Clan."
Angelina countered, "When I become a Divine being, I’ll take Jiang Chen home."
Filippa chose not to comment further. Things were far more complicated than Angelina imagined.
Jiang Chen asked, "Where is the True God’s Seal of the Wanderer?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Just asking."
"You’re not one of The Fallen. This matter has nothing to do with you, and I don’t know where the True God’s Seal is either." Filippa shook her head.
"Okay, I have another question," Jiang Chen said.
Filippa rolled her eyes at him and said coldly, "Don’t you think you’re asking too many questions?"
"You can ask me questions too."
"Do you think there’s anything about you that I’d want to know?" Filippa scoffed.
Jiang Chen smiled. "We’re relatives, after all; we should help each other out in the future."
Relatives, my ass! Who the hell is relatives with you? Filippa fumed internally.
"Go on," she said.
"Is Bai Yun the son of a Divine being?"
Filippa looked at Jiang Chen in shock. Few knew that Bai Yun was the descendant of a God. How did he find out? This...
"How did you know?"
"It seems Bai Yun is indeed a descendant of a Divine being."
"Yes, Bai Yun is indeed the offspring of a Divine being, but I’m not sure which one. It was arranged by the Continent of All-Gods for Bai Yun to become the God of The Fallen and lead them to join the Continent of All-Gods, becoming a part of it."
Filippa continued, "The Swordsman class was developed based on The Fallen. It’s not inherently strong, but you are. Did you somehow fuse the power of The Fallen with that of a Swordsman?"
Jiang Chen just smiled and said nothing. Fusion? As if it’s that easy!
Filippa shook her head. "That’s not right either. Your power belongs to the Badge, not the power of The Fallen. Do you want to gain the power of The Fallen like Bai Yun? That’s impossible."
"No one can wield two different powers."
"Once you became a Swordsman, you already gave up the power of The Fallen."
"Unless, like Bai Yun, you give up the Swordsman Badge and become a true Wanderer."
Jiang Chen shook his head. "I have no intention of giving it up; I was just asking."
Jiang Chen only wanted to get clarity—since Filippa was a high-ranking individual, could she potentially grant him the power of a Wanderer? Based on Filippa’s reaction, that seemed impossible. Therefore, he decided not to inquire further. Unless he found Bai Yun, there might be a chance. But who was Bai Yun? A challenger of the Divine. Such a person wouldn’t be easy to find. It was better to keep leveling up.
After the conversation ended, Filippa left the room.
Zhu Fei entered the room and, seeing that both were safe, felt much more at ease. He laughed and said, "I told you Prosecutor Filippa wouldn’t lay a hand on you. Now you believe me, don’t you?"
Jiang Chen said, "Tomorrow, we continue the campaign."
Zhu Fei replied, "Of course! My Legion is counting on you. Prosecutor Filippa only targets the powerful; she won’t bother with ordinary soldiers. With you around, things will be much more convenient."
「The next morning.」
The two-hundred-thousand-strong army continued to advance, flying deeper into the Osman Kingdom.
In two days, they had already conquered sixteen cities.
Jiang Chen believed that by occupying the entire Osman Kingdom, his Level could rise to at least 350—which would put him at the Seventh-stage. Currently, at Level 221, he still had a long way to go to reach Level 350!

Today was another day for leveling up. They advanced towards the next city.
The two-hundred-thousand-strong army flew through the air, eyeing the city ahead. This city was entirely different; a large number of Flame Demon Race warriors, at least a few thousand strong, converged at its center.
Of course, that wasn’t the most important thing. What was astonishing was that the enemy actually had Covenant Beasts.
The massive Covenant Beasts eclipsed the sun and sky.
This was Jiang Chen’s first encounter with the Giant Tribe’s Covenant Beasts—huge creatures whose bodies were as enormous as whales, with fins instead of wings.
Jiang Chen was puzzled. How could they fly in the air without wings?
Zhu Fei exclaimed, "How is this possible? Giants with mounts? That’s unbelievable!"
"With their gargantuan statures, how could Giants have mounts?"
"I’ve never heard of such a thing!"
"What do we do now? With mounts, the Giants can attack us no matter how high we fly."
"This is troublesome."
Filippa said, "These are experts who have descended from the Divine Domain. These mounts are called ’Kun,’ Abnormal Beasts from the Divine Domain. These aren’t even adult Kun Beasts; an adult Kun Beast is three thousand meters long and even more massive."
"But even a non-adult Kun can withstand magic offensive attacks from a Seventh-stage expert or higher, and an adult Kun Beast’s power is comparable to that of a Divine being."
"If I can come down from the Divine Domain, so can the Giant Tribe."
"In the Divine Domain, the Continent of All-Gods is already at war with the Giant Tribe."
"So what follows is a fight to the death: either we consume the Giant World, or we leave it."
"I’ll handle the Kun Beasts; you just deal with the ordinary members of the Giant Tribe."
Jiang Chen looked down at the Kun Beasts beneath the city. Dozens of Kun Beasts! Each one eight hundred meters long—how could such massive creatures possibly fly?
Zhu Fei asked, "How do they fly?"
Filippa coldly retorted, "The ’Kun’ don’t need wings. Wings are just a preconceived notion in your minds. Just like a Sixth-stage Descender, they can soar through the sky without wings. Does one really need wings to achieve Flight?"
Filippa’s rhetorical question left Zhu Fei and the others speechless. She’s right! Wanderers can fly without wings. What’s the principle behind that? Is it really necessary to have wings to fly?
