The journey to Imperial Supreme City took nearly a month, and the return journey also took a month.
The smooth journey made Su Chen feel a little disappointed.
He thought that the Everlasting Sect would send people to kill him.
However, in the past month, he had not seen a single person from the Everlasting Sect.
After thinking about it carefully, Su Chen felt that he might have thought too much.
The Great Mystery Sect was extremely far from Imperial Supreme City, and so was the Everlasting Sect.
Although the Everlasting Sect was 5,000 miles closer than Great Mystery Sect, it was useless.
Even if Elder Wang was certain that Su Chen had single-handedly wiped out their Everlasting Sect disciples, they wouldn't be able to send experts to kill him so quickly.
Just Elder Wang alone, dealing with Elder Fan was already very difficult, let alone intercepting halfway?
He might even get himself involved if he was not careful.
As long as Elder Wang was not stupid, he would definitely be able to understand the disparity in strength between the enemy and himself.
After returning to the Great Mystery Sect and bidding farewell to Elder Fan, Su Chen hurried to the Scripture Pavilion instead of returning to his courtyard first.
He stayed in the Scripture Pavilion for a full two hours and chose an earth-level lower-rank movement technique before returning to the small courtyard with satisfaction.
The black-level upper-rank God Walking Steps and the Ten Thousand Mile Tracking Technique were still too low for Su Chen.
When he reached the Spirit Sea Realm, the two martial arts would greatly reduce their boost to him.
"Cloud Traces and Enigmatic Shadows… It looks pretty good. In terms of power, it's not much inferior to an ordinary earth-level middle-rank martial art."
Su Chen spread out a wisp of his divine sense to check the contents of the identity token.
When promoted to the core disciple of the Great Mystery Sect, they would have a chance to choose an earth-level cultivation method or martial art.
This was the first time Su Chen had stepped into the Scripture Pavilion since he became a core disciple.
Overall, he was still very satisfied with this movement technique.
Unconsciously, Su Chen had already arrived in front of the courtyard.
Just as he was about to push the door open, an outer sect disciple hurried over to Su Chen and said respectfully, "Greetings, Senior Brother Su Chen!"
Seeing this, Su Chen stopped what he was doing and turned to look at him, asking, "What is the matter?"
"Senior Brother, ten days ago, the Su family of Tianyang City sent someone to deliver a jade slip. The person instructed me to personally hand this jade slip to you…"
After saying that, the outer sect disciple took out a jade slip from his storage ring and handed it over with both hands.
"The Su family of Tianyang City?"
Su Chen frowned slightly.
This was the family behind him.
However, it was different from last time.
Last time, it was Uncle Fu who came personally. This time, someone was sent to deliver a jade slip.
It probably wasn't anything major.
Thinking of this, Su Chen took the jade slip and took out a middle-grade spirit stone from his storage ring. He threw it to the outer sect disciple and said, "Thank you, Junior Brother!"
When the outer sect disciple saw this, a hint of joy flashed in the depths of his eyes. He hurriedly put the spirit stones into his storage ring and said respectfully, "This is what I should do."
For the past ten days, he had been guarding this place almost every day, waiting for Su Chen to return.
Now that he had obtained a middle-grade spirit stone, it was worth it.
After that, the outer sect disciple left happily.
Su Chen stood where he was and watched the junior brother leave. He then looked down at the jade slip in his hand and muttered, "1 wonder what happened in my family?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his divine sense stirred.
Buzz…
The restriction on the jade slip instantly disappeared: A Personal Message from Younger Brother!
When Su Chen saw these words, he was stunned. Then, a smile appeared on his face.
He had thought that this jade slip was from the family elders.
However, what he did not expect was that this jade slip was actually sent by his younger brother, the next head of the Su family.
Su Chen quickly browsed through the contents of the jade slip.
The general meaning was very simple. His younger brother wanted him to go back.
But the reason for returning was not stated clearly.
For a moment, even Chen Chen couldn't determine what had happened.
However, from his words, it probably wasn't anything major.
"Forget it, forget it… It's time to go back and take a look."
Su Chen muttered as he put away the jade slip.
Then, he walked out of the sect.
Whether for the original host or for himself, he had no choice but to go to the Su family in Tianyang City!
Because… that was his root in this world!
About an hour later, in the sky above Tianyang City, a purple-gold light streaked across the horizon like a shooting star, trailing endless divine radiance behind it. It headed straight towards a mansion within the city.
"Who dares to fly in Tianyang City?"
At this moment, a loud shout was heard.
In the city, a few armored figures stepped into the sky.
The leader of the group released the aura of a Level Nine Qi Sea Realm cultivator. He held a long spear in his hand and looked serious.
"Hmm? Since when did Tianyang City have a no-fly rule?"
The purple light dissipated.
A purple-gold warship that was dozens of meters long hovered in the void. A large flag was fluttering at the bow of the warship.
Below the flag, a young man in a purple robe stood with his hands behind his back. He glanced at them indifferently and frowned slightly.
Feeling his gaze, they couldn't help but shiver.
"A God Altar Realm elite!"
The leader's face instantly turned pale. He forced out an awkward but polite smile and cupped his hands.
"So it's a core disciple of the Great Mystery Sect who has come to Tianyang City. I have been blind not to recognize him, please forgive my ignorance!"
In the entire Dachu territory, the name of the Great Mystery Sect might not be useful.
However, in the dozen or so cities around the Great Mystery Sect, it was an undisputed giant!
No matter what power it was, everyone had to give some face to the Great Mystery Sect!
"Disperse!"
Su Chen waved his hand and walked down from the warship.
As he stepped forward, the purple-gold warship behind him turned into a stream of light and entered his storage ring.
Su Chen glanced at Tianyang City below and did not rush to the Su family immediately.
His gaze landed on a lofty and noble pavilion.
Su Chen's figure flashed and he arrived outside the pavilion.
There was a golden plaque hanging above the attic.
Treasure Pavilion!
The Treasure Pavilion was a formidable force.
Even Su Chen didn't know exactly how strong it was.
He only knew that neither the Su family nor the Great Mystery Sect dared to provoke this mysterious force.
It was said that this force was spread throughout the entire world.
They could even be seen in some very small cities.
The lowest cultivation of the guards guarding the Treasure Pavilion was at least at the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Realm.
With this cultivation level, one could pass the outer sect trial and become an inner sect disciple in the Great Mystery Sect. But here, one could only be a guard.
"I guess only the Treasure Pavilion can satisfy my request for gifts."
Su Chen raised his head and looked at the signboard of the Treasure Pavilion with a burning gaze. Then, he stepped inside..
