Ah!!
Before Yu Xiaoling could say anything, Chen Anlin turned his head and said, "Let's go. It's time to leave this place."
Thirty miles east of Zhao State City, there was a massive river. Chen Anlin flew all the way and finally arrived here. In the early morning, thick mist rose above the wide river.
Reaching the riverbank, Chen Anlin called for Yu Xiaoling, who was still sulking. Ever since Chen Anlin took away the spirit stone, Yu Xiaoling had not given him a pleasant expression.
"Alright, I promise you, as long as you can find three fish demons, I will return this spirit stone to you!" Chen Anlin said with a faint smile.
"Really?" Yu Xiaoling suddenly lifted her head, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Of course it's true. I have no reason to lie to you!"
"That's great! Don't worry, I will definitely search for them!"
"That's good." Chen Anlin nodded in satisfaction. It was amusing how a child could be so happy about doing something in exchange for her belongings.
Chen Anlin placed a strand of soul power on Yu Xiaoling and then instructed her to search in the river. As for him, he headed towards Zhao State City.
Along the way, Chen Anlin received some news. It seemed that someone had discovered an ancient relic within the Zhao River. Many skilled individuals had come to this area, hoping to reach that relic and find treasures.
At the same time, there were rumors that the Empress was also trying to intervene in this matter. She had sent her lackey, Chen Anlin, disguised and disguised to come here.
A few days ago, Chen Anlin passed by the Li family, who were in cahoots with the Taiping Sect, and killed quite a few people, even taking the life of the young son of the Shen family!
This just showcased Chen Anlin's arrogance. Hearing these rumors, Chen Anlin felt speechless. It was just a normal case of murder and treasure hunting; how did it turn into arrogance?
In Zhao Prefecture City, on the busiest street, several skilled fighters had gathered. Among them was Shen Congfeng, the eldest son of the Shen family, who had surprisingly shown up as well. Someone recognized him.
Shen Congfeng had a striking appearance, his brows sharp like swords, and he was followed by dozens of attendants. "Shen Congfeng, are you here because of your cousin who was killed by Chen Anlin?" At that moment, a tall woman smiled knowingly. This woman was Zhao Lin, the daughter of Zhao Prefecture City and responsible for its security.
"Hmph, that useless cousin of mine is dead; so what?" Shen Congfeng said nonchalantly. "However, Chen Anlin shows no respect for my Shen family, and I won't let him off easily."
Those around them were not surprised by his words. This place was too far from the capital; no matter how powerful the Empress was, her control here was weak. For instance, in Zhao Prefecture City, he was like a local emperor. Not only did he intercept most of the taxes collected each year, but he also sought assistance from the court.
It was only because the Empress was currently dealing with the Taiping Sect and other rebels that she had no time to pay attention to this area; otherwise, they wouldn't be living such comfortable lives. As for the Shen family, they were one of the foremost noble families in this region, so it was no surprise that Shen Congfeng could speak so boldly.
Zhao Lin teased him with a playful tone, "Oh, you certainly have a big mouth! From what I know, Chen Anlin is not someone to be underestimated. Do you really have confidence in dealing with him?"
"Hmph, he’s just relying on the Empress's power," Shen Congfeng replied dismissively.
Shen Congfeng scoffed.
Boom!!
His words sent chills through the crowd around him.
Arrogant, he was truly too arrogant. How could he dare to say such bold words in front of everyone?
However, those who knew Shen Congfeng understood that his words were not merely arrogance. He had the qualifications to be so.
Within the Shen family, he was the foremost among the younger generation, earning himself the nickname "Madman Shen." His enemies either lay dead or were left severely injured.
Thus, no one was willing to face him as an opponent.
Zhao Lin spoke lightly, "Don't underestimate Chen Anlin. He is a fourth-tier cultivator and has defeated many renowned individuals."
"Indeed, Young Master Chen is formidable. I witnessed him kill the Elder of Harmony," a disciple from the Hundred Flowers Sect chimed in.
The Elder of Harmony!!
He was a genuine master of the Taiping Sect, with countless lives claimed by his hands. The fact that Chen Anlin could take down the Elder proved his strength.
Shen Congfeng pondered for a moment, shrugged nonchalantly, "Chen Anlin did indeed deal with the Elder of Harmony, but it was said to have been in a situation where many surrounded him. That doesn’t count for much. If I encountered him, I could take down the Elder with one hand."
"I believe Young Master Shen," a girl in the crowd exclaimed in surprise.
There was no doubt about Young Master Shen's strength.
"Anyone can boast," many disciples from the Hundred Flowers Sect scoffed.
Chen Anlin had previously saved members of the Hundred Flowers Sect and had even been taken as a disciple by their leader, Yang Bingyi. As a result, these disciples regarded Chen Anlin as one of their own.
Hearing Shen Congfeng's words made them feel offended.
