Shocking World War Emperor-Chapter 460 Moon Shadow

"Divine Thought Master?"

Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed as his gaze landed on the man in the moon white robe to the right of the Flying Divine Ship.

He had clearly felt the fluctuations of Divine Soul Telekinesis from the attack just now.

Moreover, only on the basis of Divine Soul Telekinesis could this person directly clash against the Flying Divine Ship, obviously indicating he was a high-rank, superior Divine Thought Master!

The fact that this man called him out by name brought an ominous feeling surging in Ling Chen’s heart.

"Hurry, go!"

Master Lin, who was in battle, had naturally heard the voice as well and had sensed the strength of this Divine Thought Master.

This person was definitely not someone the crew of the Flying Divine Ship could contend with.

He wanted to break free from his opponent, but the other party tenaciously clung onto him.

"Yes!"

The Academy Elder, responsible for steering the Flying Divine Ship, swiftly activated the Spirit Array and flew towards the south.

"Think you can escape? Can you really?"

Watching the departing Flying Divine Ship, the Divine Thought Master’s mouth curled into a sneer, as a Divine Soul Telekinetic force swept out from the Heavenly Spirit, launching a Divine Soul Attack.

The ethereal Divine Soul Telekinesis instantly penetrated the defenses of the Flying Divine Ship, striking directly into the Sea of Consciousness of the Elder.

"Boom!"

The Elder felt a thunderous roar resound in his head, followed by immediate dizziness and fainting.

The unrestrained Flying Divine Ship slowed down and gradually came to a stop.

"Ling Chen, you can hide inside. However, I want to see how long you can hide. Every ten breaths, I’ll launch a Divine Soul Attack, until you come out."

The Divine Thought Master said with a light smile.

The strongest on the Flying Divine Ship was merely at the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, a level of cultivation that was negligible before him.

Now that Master Lin was being held up by his men, he had all the time in the world, to slowly chat with Ling Chen.

"What do we do?"

There was a sense of panic among the people on the Flying Divine Ship.

Everyone looked towards the leading Elder.

"Ten!"

At this moment, the count-down voice of the Divine Thought Master resounded from outside.

The situation instilled even more fear in everyone.

Even an Elder in the late stages of the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm had been rendered unconscious by this Divine Thought Master, let alone them.

It was apparent that the opponent was a high-rank superior Divine Thought Master!

Such a force was extremely rare even within their own Academic Palace.

Many of the students even looked towards Ling Chen.

"I’ll go out!"

Ling Chen spoke.

It was clear that this person had come for him.

There was no need to involve the others.

Moreover, these people had no real power to resist.

Of course, he had already sent a distress signal to Liu Qingcang.

His luck was really terrible.

The first time Uncle Cang left him alone, he encountered such a situation.

"Brother!"

Tears streamed down Xiao Wu’s face like rain.

Having witnessed the terrifying power of that person outside, her worry was natural to the extreme.

"It’s okay, he’s only coming for me. Once I leave, you should all be safe."

Ling Chen said with a smile.

He reached out to wipe away Xiao Wu’s tears.

Seeing this scene, the leading Elder was also at a loss.

At this moment, the only solution was to let Ling Chen go out in order to dissolve the danger for others.

Moreover, even if they hid here, they were likely no match for the person outside. A Divine Soul Attack from someone at the later stages of the Palace Realm would be too much for even an average Primordial Pill Realm Nine Layer expert to withstand.

"There’s no need to count down outside, I’ll give my instructions and come out immediately!"

Ling Chen’s voice rang out.

"Good!"

The corners of the Divine Thought Master’s mouth lifted into a smile as he said, "I’ll give you a quarter of an hour to settle your affairs."

Ling Chen stared at Xiao Wu and smiled, "Xiao Wu, if I can’t return, leave the Great Xia Dynasty. Furthermore, I hope once you become a strong practitioner of the Palace Mansion Realm, you can do me a favor. You’ll be told about this favor when the time comes."

Hearing Ling Chen as if he was setting his affairs in order, Xiao Wu cried even harder, "Brother, I don’t want you to die!"

Ling Chen gently touched Xiao Wu’s head, saying, "I might not necessarily die! I’m just worried, in case I can’t return."

"Also, remember to keep your physique a secret, and definitely do not reveal it to anyone!"

Ling Chen conveyed with a telepathic instruction.

If he never returned, his greatest worry was for Ling Wu.

This young girl had followed him since childhood, kind-hearted, unsuspicious of others, easily deceived.

As for his father’s matter, he had done his utmost. But now, facing the threat of a top-tier high-level Divine Thought Master, there was no other choice.

Then, Ling Chen looked at the leading Elder, saying, "Elder Xu, as soon as I leave, immediately pilot the Flying Divine Ship toward Jianxing Academy."

"Ling Chen..."

Elder Xu looked at Ling Chen, eyes filled with reluctance.

Had their Jianxing Academy finally found such an unparalleled talent, only to lose him here?

Despite having contacted the Academy and sent out a distress signal, the distance was too far, and the Academy’s powerhouses simply couldn’t arrive in time.

Looking at the Divine Thought Master outside and the Ninth Stage powerhouse entangling Master Lin, it was clear the enemy had prepared well in advance to ensure Ling Chen’s demise!

As for the others, he did not leave any instructions.

He was preparing for the worst.

Of course, he would never give up until the very last moment!

"Whoosh!"

Ling Chen’s figure moved, and under everyone’s watchful eyes, he soared out from the Flying Divine Ship!

Outside the Divine Ship.

The Divine Thought Master, watching Ling Chen emerge, showed a hint of surprise and said, "You’ve settled matters so quickly?"

"Yes!"

Ling Chen stared intently at the Divine Thought Master and asked, "What do you want with me?"

"I’m here to take your life!"

The Divine Thought Master replied with a grin.

"Which organization do you belong to?"

Ling Chen asked.

Previously, Uncle Cang had told him that the Jiang Family of the Eight Great Families had sought the Dark Night Assassin to kill him.

After Dark Night rejected the offer with a high asking price, the Jiang Family seemed to have contacted other assassin organizations.

The Divine Thought Master was slightly taken aback.

From Ling Chen’s tone, it was obvious he knew this was a commissioned hit.

"Moon Shadow."

The Divine Thought Master said with a smile.

"Moon Shadow?"

Ling Chen’s eyes turned frosty.

Moon Shadow was an assassin organization spread across the neighboring countries.

Their overall strength was considerably greater than the Dark Night’s.

However, their development within the Great Xia Dynasty was mediocre, kept in check by the Dark Night.

"What is your name? A top-tier high-level Divine Thought Master isn’t some nameless entity, right?"

Ling Chen asked.

"My name is Zui Meng."

The Divine Thought Master replied, smiling.

Of course, assassins wouldn’t tell their real name to others.

They usually went by code names.

"Living and dying in a dream, huh?"

Ling Chen said with a faint smile, "That does suit your methods."

The methods of a top-tier Divine Thought Master indeed could make one die in a dream.

"Not bad!"

The Divine Thought Master nodded, grinning, "You should feel honored dying by my hands. At least, you will die a happy death, without any pain."

"Who hired you to kill me?"

Ling Chen inquired.

The Divine Thought Master shook his head, "Keeping our client’s confidentiality is our responsibility. Therefore, I can’t tell you."

"The Great Xia Jiang Family?"

Ling Chen suddenly spoke up.

The Divine Thought Master’s eyes narrowed, revealing a flicker of shock.

He had not expected Ling Chen to guess it.

"No comment!"

The Divine Thought Master regained his composure, speaking indifferently.

"Indeed!"

Ling Chen’s eyes hardened.

From the man’s expression, he knew his guess was correct; it was the doing of the Jiang Family.

"Jiang Family, if I, Ling Chen, do not die today, I vow to exterminate your entire clan!"

Ling Chen swore in his heart, his eyes brimming with killing intent!
