Upon hearing Qin Chen speak.

Zhou Taiwang's gaze immediately fell upon Qin Chen.

"I am a disciple of the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect."

Qin Chen stared at Zhou Taiwang, his tone calm, his expression serene, uttering just this simple statement.

However.

Everyone understood what Qin Chen's words meant.

The people from the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect had initially bowed their heads.

But when Qin Chen's words echoed.

All of them raised their heads.

Eyes turned to Qin Chen, with surprise in their gaze, but more than that, a moving sense of sect loyalty.

Li Guangxuan, Elder Shen, and others felt particularly stirred.

To be honest, Qin Chen's choice caught them somewhat off guard, even if he was asked to temporarily agree, he wouldn't; his response was profoundly simple.

I am a disciple of the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect.

A single sentence expressed his stance.

On this ground.

He stood his ground unwaveringly.

Even if he faced the formidable Zhou Taiwang.

Zhou Taiwang's eyes froze, and swiftly said, "Are you planning to seek death?!"

As Zhou Taiwang's last word fell.

The whole realm shuddered slightly.

Obviously, Zhou Taiwang was enraged at this moment.

Angered by Qin Chen's rejection.

After all, Qin Chen had killed his son, yet he overcame opposition to recruit Qin Chen, but Qin Chen had actually rejected him?

Frankly speaking.

Zhou Taiwang had never thought Qin Chen would reject him.

Perhaps it's for this reason that his emotions were extraordinarily out of control at the moment.

"Why?!"

The always composed Ouyang Panxue now had sharp eyes, seeming somewhat angry, with deep confusion in her heart.

What kind of situation is this now?

Actually, rejection?

What is he thinking!

Does he really not care for his life?

"Too stubborn, perhaps that's Qin Chen's flaw, even if only temporarily for survival, agreeing with Zhou Taiwang would be fine, but still, he was unwilling."

"This truly moved me; in this world of the strong devouring the weak, there are still people so loyal and righteous, it's not easy."

How could the onlookers not be incredibly surprised?

This outcome, no one foresaw.

Everyone understood.

Qin Chen, it's over.

Zhou Taiwang won't give Qin Chen a second chance.

Moreover, Zhou Taiwang, now provoked by Qin Chen, evidently, if he acts, he surely won't show mercy; by then, Qin Chen might struggle to withstand even three moves.

"Idiot."

Zhai Tianhao and others laughed heartily in their hearts, their gaze at Qin Chen akin to looking at a fool, so unaware of when to advance or retreat, still pondering how to handle today's abrupt situation.

Unexpectedly.

Qin Chen sent himself onto a dead-end path.

The surrounding people's expressions fluctuated greatly.

Yet as the person in charge, Qin Chen remained extremely calm.

He acted according to his inner values.

If his heart is unwilling, he won't force himself.

The Heavenly Blade Saint Sect viewed him as a belief, and he as well?

This sect had already borne too much for him.

How could he possibly at this critical juncture betray the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect?

Could it just be for survival?

Life, Qin Chen would strive for himself.

Rather than living in shame.

On his journey, he had never bowed to anyone.

This time, he wouldn't either.

His prideful spirit never bows; even if meeting demise, he had no regrets.

"Today if you wish to kill me, I will make you pay the price."

Qin Chen fixed his gaze on Zhou Taiwang; though he had been pushed to the limit now, there was still one final trick he hadn't used.

Divine Demon Blood Burning Technique!

He hadn't used this method for a long time.

Because this technique is entirely of the type that injures the enemy at the cost of self-harm.

It could grant Qin Chen extreme combat power and severely injure Qin Chen simultaneously.

Given today Zhou Taiwang didn't leave him a way out.

Then he would make Zhou Taiwang pay the price.

Zhou Taiwang sneered fiercely, "Make me pay? You..."

"Zhou Taiwang!"

As he spoke halfway.

Suddenly a thunderous shout surged from the distant sky, like thunder snapping in the horizon, causing the latter half of Zhou Taiwang's words to get stuck in his throat.

Zhou Taiwang looked over.

Qin Chen also looked there, seemingly another group had arrived.

Moreover, not just one person.

But a group.

The view gradually cleared.

Not too many people came.

About tens of people.

However, on each person among these tens, powerful aura surged.

In this group of people.

Qin Chen saw two familiar figures.

Bu Tianyi, Chen Jingyuan.

Seeing this team, Qin Chen immediately realized the identities of this group.

Buhe City!

"Su Yang, what do you mean?"

Zhou Taiwang's gaze directed at the foremost figure of the team; he was named Su Yang, the City Lord of Buhe City.

Buhe City was a top force of the Great Yang Dynasty, nearly evenly matched with the War God Hall.

For a moment.

Combat halted due to the arrival of Buhe City.

The observers' eyes narrowed slightly.

Another group arriving at such a critical moment?

What changes would this cause to the situation?

"If I remember correctly, wasn't the City Lord of Buhe City, a top force in the Great Yang Dynasty, named Su Yang?"

"Here are the Great Yang Dynasty and the Daqing Dynasty, what exactly did Qin Chen do after leaving the Great Origin Dynasty?"

Many people's hearts trembled.

Su Yang fixed his gaze on Zhou Taiwang, "Qin Ni is from Buhe City, you want to move on him, ask me first."

His words were direct.

Purely protective!

In fact, after Bu Tianyi and others returned from the Star Summoning Ancient Realm and reported the experiences within to Su Yang, Su Yang was tremendously shocked, and had been discreetly watching over Qin Chen since.

Until receiving news, the War God Hall was ready to act, Su Yang without hesitation, rallied Buhe City's strong individuals, traveled thousands of miles, crossed a dynasty, and came to assist Qin Chen.

Qin Chen looked towards Su Yang, his heart surprised and moved.

In the end.

He was only a guest elder of Buhe City.

No matter Su Yang's motives, the War God Hall was not a weak opponent, and Su Yang willing to oppose the War God Hall to aid him was not something everyone dared to do.

Zhou Taiwang's face slightly changed, "Su Yang, he killed my son, and many Heavenly Prides of my War God Hall, you're aware, and now you protect him, do you think I will back down?!"

Su Yang's expression was cold, "I don't care if you back down or not."

"But if you dare to seize a single hair from Qin Ni, I'm sorry, Buhe City will declare war on the War God Hall immediately!"

"Boom!"

When Su Yang's words fell.

Everyone was shaken, mouths gradually opened wide.

Su Yang publicly declared war with the War God Hall over Qin Chen?

Zhai Tianhao and others' faces instantly darkened.

Zhou Taiwang's face was alternating between blue and red, fury swirling in his eyes, "Su Yang, do you think my War God Hall fears Buhe City?!"
