Chapter 2868: Indefinite Retreat

"Mengyao, I'm going to be in seclusion for a long time. When I come out, it will be the final battle with Wanchao Pavilion."

Lin Mengyao was slightly startled by Bai Chen's resolute attitude.

Looking at his face with a faint smile, she seemed to see the way Bai Chen looked when she first met him.

Indifferent.

Calm.

Everything seemed to be under his control.

"For so many years, you have been eager to find the truth of the year, running around, and defeating the strong with the weak many times. Although the balance of luck has always been leaning towards you, it will be dangerous sooner or later if you continue like this."

"I understand, so I decided to calm down now. With our speed of practice, plus the help of old man Yan, as long as there is enough time, it is not a problem to defeat Poseidon."

"Brother Bai, I believe in you."

Lin Mengyao leaned comfortably on his chest and gradually closed her eyes.

In front of a high palace window a thousand meters away from the Star Watching Platform, Qiu Luoxue was holding the ancient emperor's star-fixing plate in her white hands, and her beautiful eyes were full of blessings and envy.

…

The next day, Bai Chen and the other six returned to the Xumi Temple again.

After Wang Zun personally opened the space-time tunnel, they returned to the island of Xumi Holy Realm.

At this time, Chu Junran was practicing swordsmanship in the distance, sweat rolling down her cheeks, but she did not slack off at all, focusing on swordsmanship, and did not even notice that Bai Chen and the others were back.

Such perseverance and concentration.

Her future achievements will definitely be high!

"You are finally back."

Old Man Yan sat on the beach and looked at Bai Chen with a smile on his face: "How is it, what changes have taken place in Xinglan Continent since you returned this time?"

"..."

This shrewd guy.

Bai Chen smiled calmly, came to the opposite side of Old Man Yan, and sat on the ground: "Something happened."

"Oh? Why not tell me about it."

Old Man Yan seemed to be very interested in what happened on Xinglan Continent.

Seeing this, Bai Chen's face gradually became solemn: "The strongest Mad Dragon Empire in Xinglan Continent has now been completely controlled by Wanchao Pavilion."

"Oh, is there anything else?"

"Anything else?"

Bai Chen frowned.

How come such a big thing is nothing in the eyes of this old man?

"Also, the strong men of Wanjian Divine Sect and Zhuge Family have also surrendered to Wanchao Pavilion. With Poseidon's temper, I'm afraid it won't take long before he will attack Xinglan Temple."

"Well, Wanchao Pavilion and the like are not important at all. Is Xiao Xiu... okay?"

!!

When Old Man Yan said this, Bai Chen's face suddenly sank.

Poseidon is not worth mentioning in his eyes.

On the contrary, it is Xiao Xiu that he cares about?

"Xiao Xiu is fine. He was picked up by Xiao Yi before I came back." Bai Chen shrugged and said indifferently.

However, after hearing this, Old Man Yan actually stood up excitedly.

"What did you say! He was taken away by the little Qilin?!"

Old Man Yan's behavior was just as Bai Chen expected.

It seems that Xiao Xiu has a big secret.

No wonder everyone wants to get him.

"After all, Xiao Yi is the Qilin God. Xiao Xiu will be safer if he protects him. By the way... how do you know Xiao Xiu?" Bai Chen was a little curious.

Hearing this, Old Man Yan immediately coughed twice in embarrassment: "Ahem, I was just asking casually."

"Oh, is that so~"

Bai Chen raised his eyebrows.

It is undeniable that Xiao Xiu's secret is probably not simple.

But even so, Old Man Yan could not tell him the truth.

So, he didn't want to get anything out of this old guy.

"By the way, I'm not going to leave this time I come back. I'm staying here to practice with you to the end." Bai Chen suddenly smiled.

"Not going to leave?"

Old Man Yan was startled.

"Yes, my Black Dragon Soul has awakened now. For the next cultivation, I need to throw away all distractions. It's a waste of energy to return once every ten years."

"That won't work. You have to go out once every ten years. This is the rule set by me. I always keep my promises..."

Before Old Man Yan finished speaking, Bai Chen shrugged speechlessly: "But I still have to pay attention to the movements of Xinglan Continent. My two friends are in Xinglan Temple. If there is really trouble there, I still have to go back. So before coming in, I told Ling Xiao to monitor the world at any time. Once Wanchao Pavilion has a big move, he must notify us."

"What did you say!"

Old Man Yan was immediately furious, and a grim look appeared in his eyes: "The rule of going out for ten years was set by me. Can you change it if you say so?"

In fact, when he said this, there was another sentence in his heart that he didn't say.

I trained you so that you can be used by my Xumi Holy Realm in the future!

On the contrary, you taught Ling Xiao how to do things?

Who listens to whom?

Old Man Yan was so angry.

However, he soon regained his composure.

Since Bai Chen dared to challenge him here, he knew his own value.

The purpose of Old Man Yan training him.

"Well... you finally owe me a big favor."

Old Man Yan said with a stiff face and a fake smile.

"Don't worry, I will definitely pay back the favor I owe you. As long as it does not violate the moral principles of the martial arts world, does not kill innocent people indiscriminately, and does not hurt my companions, I will help you."

Bai Chen was quite frank and said it directly.

And he also knew that even if he recovered to his peak, he would probably not be the opponent of this old man.

If he wanted to completely get rid of his control...

The only way was...

To surpass the peak!!

…

Just like that, a new round of training for Bai Chen and the other seven people began again.

And this time, it was the rules set by Bai Chen himself, without a time limit.

Everything depended on whether Wanchao Pavilion would make a big move!

Old man Yan's target was Xiao Xiu.

Bai Chen's target was Wanchao Pavilion!

…

After years of running around, today, the geniuses of Chenyao Sword Sect finally began their endless training.

Year after year, many newcomers came to join, but only a few geniuses could join Chenyao Sword Sect and become outer disciples.

After years of vicissitudes, time flies.

Chenyao Sword Sect has become the second strongest sect in Beichen Empire.

But in fact, only the old Xuanwu and the Pavilion Master of Xingchen Pavilion knew that when Bai Chen and his little monsters came out again, Xingchen Pavilion would not be qualified to compete with Chenyao Sword Sect.

Over the years, Chenyao Sword Sect has absorbed countless disciples.

For them, the strongest person in the sect is Xiaoya.

Below Xiaoya is the Cat Emperor.

As for the legendary sect master, the Evil Emperor, many people have never seen him. They can only silently look forward to the day when this man who is known as a miracle maker will come back and let them see the style of the Evil Emperor.

…

In a flash.

A full sixty years have passed.
