Crazy Hint
Everyone’s gaze was focused on the tall and thin man.

The lanky man thought of Ying Qingqing and sighed to himself.

His gaze was calm and spirited as he looked around at the people around him. Then, he said, “The Supreme Martial Artist has given his orders. He doesn’t have the heart to meddle in the matters of the younger generation.

It was Chen Luoyang’s own destiny for the Heavenly Book to be in his hands. If he was unable to protect it, it would be his own fault.

If he wants to inherit the mantle of the Supreme Martial Artist, he should accept all kinds of experiences and temper himself.”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Chen Luoyang with eyes filled with amusement.

The Sect Master of the Red Dust Ancient supreme-rulers Sect, Jiang Yi, and the old woman, Azure Dragon Island Master, did not look disappointed. Instead, they looked more relaxed.

The Chu Emperor, Fusang Island Lord, Reverend Puhui of the western paradise, as well as the Heavenly River and Blood River experts, didn’t feel any joy. Their gazes turned heavy instead.

The words that Zhuyan had passed down on behalf of the Supreme Martial Artist didn’t seem to care about Chen Luoyang at all.

But to them, the most important thing was these two words.

Inherit the mantle!

This was equivalent to clearly acknowledging that Chen Luoyang was his disciple.

At the very least, they were people whom he acknowledged and valued. After experiencing hardships and passing some tests, they would become true inner disciples and inheritors.

This confirmation was more important than anything else.

Although the Supremacy had said that Chen Luoyang should receive more experience and temper his character and abilities, everyone present could clearly grasp the core concept of his words.

Experience.

They basically all had disciples who would give the young people experience and tests. They knew that the best flowers could not grow in the greenhouse.

At the same time, they were also very clear about one thing.

Practicing and watching one die in vain were two different things.

A slim chance of survival could be called a trial, but a slim chance of death was asking people to die.

A Supremacy could watch Chen Luoyang suffer setbacks, watch him fail, and watch him face formidable enemies that he couldn’t resist. However, there was a bottom line for all of this. At the very least, there had to be a chance of success.

If there was no chance at all, then there was no point in training.

This also explained why the Supreme-Being had only stopped Chen Luoyang when he was facing the old Sword Immortal’s sword and saved his life. Other than that, he had completely ignored him.

For influential figures like them, attacking a Martial Emperor was not something that could be explained by the words ‘bullying the weak’.

Everyone was shocked.

But he also relaxed slightly.

The Supremacy had said that if Chen Luoyang could keep that page of the Heavenly Book, then so be it. If he couldn’t keep it, then he was useless.

To a certain extent, it was equivalent to tacitly admitting that the old sword immortal had made a move this time. Those who did not know were not guilty.

In order to temper and test Chen Luoyang, he even allowed others to continue to have designs on Chen Luoyang’s page of the Heavenly Book.

However, after this reminder, if big shots like them attacked again, they would be completely ignorant.

At that time, it was difficult to predict what kind of reaction the Supreme Martial Artist would have…

However, there were also people who had their doubts.

After all, Zhu Jian had helped Chen Luoyang previously.

Although he wasn’t good at faking things, what if?

Just as they were thinking about this, they realized that although Zhu Ran had reappeared, Ying Qingqing had not.

At this moment, Zhu Yan cupped his hands solemnly at Chen Luoyang.”As for the Supreme Martial Artist, please put in a good word for Miss Qing Qing and ask the Supreme Martial Artist to be lenient.”

Seeing Zhu Yan’s appearance, most of the people who were suspicious were relieved.

Swordmaster Darknorth might seem indifferent, but he was actually very proud. Given his personality, it was basically impossible for him to act to this extent. He would rather fight to the death alone than go to this extent.

“Miss Qingqing is also my friend. I will plead with my master without your permission.” Chen Luoyang looked at the tall and thin man in front of him and said, will try my best.”

“Thank you in advance, sir,” Zhu Jian insisted.

When the others saw this, they could not help but mutter in their hearts.

It was true that Zhu Jian was helping Chen Luoyang.

Ying Qingqing was the same. Now, she was captured by a Supreme Martial Artist. She didn’t know whether she was dead or alive…

However, he could not completely rule out the possibility of them working together to put on an act.

However, if he were to boldly question the Supreme Martial Artist like Zhu Rong had just now, if he really angered the Supreme Martial Artist, he probably wouldn’t be as lucky as Zhu Rong to be able to escape unscathed.

Chen Luoyang secretly observed everyone’s reactions.

The clues that could be observed from a group of old foxes were limited.

But for the time being, the effect seemed to be pretty good.

However, he still could not let his guard down.

Touching everyone at once but not taking them in was relatively less powerful and less intimidating.

Taking them one by one would easily arouse suspicion.

It would be best if he could capture one person and intimidate everyone, but the chances of success were slim.

Because he couldn’t really do anything to these big guys in front of him.

The cultivation of these big shots was too strong. It was extremely difficult to trap them under the starry sky for a long time.

Once they sensed that the restraints were weakening and that they could gradually break free, they would naturally become suspicious.

But Ying Qingqing was different.

The girl was only at the sixth realm…

He could detain her for as long as he wanted.

Indeed, detaining her wasn’t enough to intimidate anyone, but if he could capture the Darknorth Swordmaster while detaining her, then the Darknorth Swordmaster would return empty-handed without returning. The effect would be much better.

This would give people a subtle hint that he could casually make Swordmaster Darknorth do the same.

From here to there, it could naturally make the other giants feel threatened.

Therefore, Chen Luoyang was grateful to Ying Qingqing and Fusang Island Lord.

This sudden accident made things much easier for him.

Of course, there was still no absolute insurance. It was not enough to completely let these big shots in front of him let go of their suspicions. After all, both Swordmaster Darknorth and Ying Qingqing were helping him on the surface.

This meant that the possibility of collusion could not be completely ruled out.

Even if it was only one percent, one thousandth, or one ten-thousandth, the suspicion would still exist.

If it was possible, the best way now was to capture the old Celestial River Sword Immortal.

There was no need for much. First, he had Zhu Yan. Then, he would strike down on this only big shot who had truly attacked the Demon Venerable’s disciple, Chen Luoyang. With these two, the effect would be sufficient.

Unfortunately, it was too difficult to operate.

When the eight ‘giant stars’ were gathered together, other than the Azure Dragon Island Master who had captured them previously, Chen Luoyang couldn’t tell who was who.

It was all thanks to Ying Qingqing that he could accurately locate the bamboo basket.

The tiny star that represented Ying Qingqing was connected to the giant star under the black mirror’s left eye.

That was because Zhu Ran wanted to protect Ying Qingqing with her sword Qi.

With this point, Chen Luoyang was able to differentiate the Darknorth Swordmaster, Bamboo Cane, from the other six ‘giant stars’.

As for Old Sword Immortal Tianhe…

Who the hell knew which “Superstar” represented him?

Moreover, this big shot had lived long enough and had come into contact with a real Demon Venerable in the past.

Only the heavens knew how much he knew about the real Demon Venerable.

If they were alone, he might be exposed if he said something inappropriate.

Thus, Chen Luoyang could only give up on capturing the old Sword Immortal.

This would more or less arouse suspicion.

As such, Chen Luoyang had been secretly observing everyone’s movements so that he could judge if he should proceed with the next step of his plan.

To be honest, he didn’t really want to leave.

Because the next step was also a risky move. He didn’t have enough confidence to take on a lot of risks.

At this time, the more he did, the easier it was to make mistakes.

If his actions just now were enough to fool the opponent, that would naturally be the best.

For this reason, when he pretended to be the Demon Venerable, he deliberately said that the Tomes of Arcane were available to everyone and would not protect him too much. He only hinted to the few big shots not to bully the weak.

On the one hand, it was to put on airs and increase the credibility of his impersonation as a Demon Venerable. On the other hand, it was to leave some hope for his opponents so that they would not be unwilling and take the risk to continue probing.

Of course, Chen Luoyang knew that each clan had experts who were stronger than the 16th realm Martial Saint. However, it was much better to face those people than to face these super giants.

Just as the Demon Lord had defined.

It was fine to train, but let’s not fight to the death…

Chen Luoyang mocked himself in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be some fierce aura leaking from the blood river.

He immediately sounded the alarm in his heart.

Among all the people present, the most threatening one was Blood River.

He was of high seniority, strong enough, vicious enough, and lawless.

The other party didn’t necessarily want to take Chen Luoyang’s life. Instead, they came for the Nether Sword Art.

In the current situation, the one who was most likely to cause trouble was this old devil.

“The Supreme One has decreed that we…” A laugh came from the blood river.

Before he could finish, his voice suddenly paused.

As for the other big shots, they seemed to have sensed something and looked to the other side.

The void there seemed to tremble slightly.

Then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

The newcomer was tall and handsome, but he couldn’t hide the arrogance and ruthlessness between his brows.

It was none other than “Mad Emperor” Bie Donglai!

“When Chen Luoyang saw the other party, he almost had the urge to roll his eyes.

The other party rushing over at this time not only didn’t make him feel more confident, but also gave him an ominous feeling.

As expected, this madman didn’t have any self-awareness of being late.

Instead, he shouted at Chen Luoyang, ‘”You bastard, you tricked me so hard!”

He spoke in a carefree manner. There was no anger or killing intent in his tone. It was more like a simple complaint.

Chen Luoyang calmed his mind and asked indifferently, “”Are you trying to find an excuse for breaking your promise?”

“I didn’t mean to be late. I just had to do something.” Bie Donglai waved his hand.

“I met that old bastard, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find out where my wife is.” His expression turned ugly.

Damn old ghost?

The others frowned slightly.

They all acknowledged Bie Donglai’s strength.

Someone who could make him helpless was at least a super giant like them.

Just as everyone was feeling suspicious, Bie Donglai’s sudden words were earth-shattering.

“Oh right, that damned old ghost also mentioned that the Supreme Martial Artist had already fallen a long time ago.. It’s impossible for you to be the successor of the Supreme Martial Artist! “
