The way back was particularly smooth, Zhan Chen had already broken through the five-star earth star realm, and his speed had already exceeded three times the speed of light, but in order to take care of Zang Qing, he suppressed his speed to less than three times the speed of light.

And Zhan Chen found that although his cultivation was improving rapidly, the growth of the speed of flight was getting slower and slower, there seemed to be a huge bottleneck in it, no matter how hard he tried, the flight speed could not be faster, he felt strange about this phenomenon, so he tried to ask Zang Qing on the side.

"Senior brother—"

Zang Qing waved his hand and said, "You haven't changed your words yet, now that my cultivation is lower than yours, I should be asked to call you Senior Brother." ”

"Hehe, you are older than me, I respect what you should, if you really mind, I will call you Brother Zang. ”

"Okay, Zhan Chen, do you have something to ask?"

"Yes, although I am proficient in the mysteries of light, I feel that my speed has not improved much, is my cultivation not enough?"

Zang Qing waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhan, don't you know, this is the limitation of our Earth Star Realm powerhouse, no matter how much our Earth Star Realm powerhouse improves his cultivation and understands the mystery of light, the speed cannot exceed five times the speed of light, and the speed of a Stellar Realm powerhouse cannot exceed ten times the speed of light." ”

"Why, isn't it true that the greater the power, the faster the speed?"

"The theory is like this, but there is a certain rule in this universe that limits the speed of our cultivators, and I don't know much about this kind of rule. ”

Zhan Chen stopped talking, Zang Qing's answer made him unsatisfied, he didn't get the answer he needed, but his cultivation was still very low, the universe was endless, and there were still many things he didn't know, he believed that as long as he steadily improved his cultivation, he would eventually have time to unravel them one by one, so he was no longer entangled in this problem.

Before the two of them knew it, they returned to Taihao Star, and Zang Qing was about to land at the coordinates of the Beast King Valley, but Zhan Chen stopped his figure and said to him, "Brother Zang, let's leave it alone." ”

Zang Qing turned around and asked in surprise, "What, you don't know how to sect anymore?"

Zhan Chen nodded and said, "I have to go to other places, I won't be sectarian for the time being, if the master asks about me, I bother you to explain." ”

Zang Qing smiled: "Okay, but I don't think Elder Chang will ask about you, you also know that the management of our sect is surprisingly loose, and the elders are busy with their own affairs, and they rarely care about our disciples' lives or deaths." ”

Zhan Chen arched his hand at him and said, "Then I'll go." ”

So the two separated, and said that Zhan Chen had been thinking all the way after leaving Zang Qing: "My cultivation has improved too quickly, and now I will definitely attract everyone's attention when I return to the sect, especially to attract Lin Qiusheng's attention, although I already have the cultivation of the five-star earth star realm, but it is still far from Lin Qiusheng's life, and now Wenwen should still be in retreat to break through the two-star earth star realm, and I won't be able to see her when I go back, so now is not the time to go back." ”

It was precisely because of this idea that Zhan Chen decided not to go back for the time being, and he had another selfish intention, that is, he had left Cloud Swallowing City and Wanfa Star for a long time, and now that he had achieved a small degree of cultivation and had a certain ability to protect himself, it was time to go back and take a look.

So, Zhan Chen marched in the direction of Cloud Swallowing City, and about a day later, he landed in front of Cloud Swallowing City, but what he saw was an amazing scene, most of the city had collapsed, but several buildings had already risen from the ruins.

"What the hell is going on in Cloud Swallowing City!" Zhan Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten, the first thing he thought of was Lin Mengdie's safety, so he hurriedly flew in the direction of Lin Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he saw several people from the Lin family maintaining order, and it happened that one of them was his master Lin Shuwen, who hurriedly greeted him and saluted: "Hello master." ”

Lin Shuwen turned around and was very surprised to see Zhan Chen, and said, "Zhan Chen is you—it's just that I can't see through your cultivation?"

Zhan Chen said: "Master, I have encountered some adventures when I have been out and about in the past few years, and now I am a powerhouse in the five-star earth star realm. ”

"What, Five-Star Earth Star Realm!" Lin Shuwen was taken aback, and then his face showed a trace of loneliness, and sighed: "Alas, I'm really old. ”

Zhan Chen hurriedly said: "Master, don't say that, I have a lot of pills to improve my cultivation, I will honor you, you will definitely be able to break through the realm." ”

Lin Shuwen waved his hand and said, "No need, my potential is not exhausted, and slowly cultivating and breaking through by myself is the right way." ”

"It's okay—by the way, master, what happened, how did Cloud Swallowing City become like this?" Zhan Chen asked the question in his heart.

Lin Shuwen was stunned for a moment and sighed: "Alas, it's really hard to say, our Cloud Swallowing City was attacked by a group of bandits called the Black Wind Army. ”

"What, it's them—are there any of our people killed or wounded?"

Lin Shuwen frowned and said: "More than 100 clansmen died and more than 500 people were injured, but fortunately, we were in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Cloud Swallowing City, and at a critical moment, a hermit with advanced cultivation made a move and repelled them." ”

"So what's going on with Lin Mengdie—I mean how is Elder Lin Gutian's family?"

Lin Shuwen naturally knew the relationship between Zhan Chen and Lin Mengdie, and said, "Don't worry, they are fine, the Black Wind Army just attacked the building in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion." ”

"That's good, that's good!" Zhan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Teacher, I'm going back to see the situation." ”

"Well, you can go quickly. ”

After leaving Lin Shuwen, Zhan Chen hurried back to Lin Gutian's mansion, and found that it was intact, and his hanging heart finally let go a little, and when he entered the mansion, Zhan Chen immediately asked the maid: "Where is Lin Mengdie?"

"Uncle, the young lady is in her boudoir. ”

"Okay!" Zhan Chen hurried to Lin Mengdie's boudoir, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw her sitting in front of the dresser, and hurriedly went up to take her hand and said, "Mengdie, fortunately, you are fine." ”

Lin Mengdie was also pleasantly surprised when she saw Zhan Chen coming back, and said, "Zhan Chen, you are finally back, do you know that something terrible happened to us in Cloud Swallowing City a few days ago. ”

"I know that I happened to meet the master at the gate of the city just now, and he told me everything. By the way, how could the Black Wind Army suddenly come to attack Cloud Swallowing City? Didn't they suffer a devastating blow before?"

As soon as she heard him ask, Lin Mengdie gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "It's not a good thing that Lin Yue, a traitor, did. ”

"Lin Yue. Zhan Chen was startled and asked, "What's wrong with her, hasn't she already fled from the Lin family?"

"After Lin Yue escaped from the Lin family, she went to join the Black Wind Army, this time she led the Black Wind Army to attack us, the leader of the Black Wind Army Li Fengying is a master of the five-star Earth Star Realm, no one in our Lin family can fight against him, it is strange to say, at the critical moment, the boss of a hotel in the city suddenly made a move and defeated Li Fengying. ”

"Boss?" Zhan Chen couldn't help but think of the small hotel that Jiang Qi had taken him to, and the taste of Qingling wine that he still remembers vividly, Jiang Qi's cultivation is unfathomable, and he guessed that the hotel owner was also a hermit master, and it was very likely that the one who rescued Swallowing Cloud City this time was the hotel owner, and he asked again, "So is Li Fengying dead?"

Lin Yue shook his head and replied, "That hermit only shot back against Li Fengying but didn't kill him, and now Li Fengying and the Black Wind Army are gone. Afterwards, we went to find the hermit and wanted to thank him in person, but we couldn't find anyone else. ”

Zhan Chen's heart sank, the hermit had already left, the next time the Black Wind Army came over again, Swallowing Cloud City would be unprotected, and he also knew the obsession of Lin Yue, a woman, she would definitely come back to kill the Lin family, so he said: "Mengdie, Lin Yue, this woman is too terrible, she is obviously a member of our Lin family, but I didn't expect it to attract the Black Wind Army to attack us." ”

"Yes, she committed the great crime of killing her people, but she did not repent, and now she has attracted the revenge of the bandits, this woman is simply crazy, and it has made everyone in our Cloud Swallowing City panic. ”

Seeing that she was worried, Zhan Chen comforted: "Mengdie, don't worry, now that I'm back, I won't let them be arrogant anymore." ”

"You-" Lin Mengdie realized that she couldn't see Zhan Chen's cultivation clearly, although her current cultivation also had a star realm, but it was far worse than today's Zhan Chen.

"Hehe, I'll tell you good news, I'm already a five-star Earth Star Realm powerhouse. Zhan Chen said with a smile, he couldn't suppress the pride in his heart at the moment.

"Five stars-" Lin Mengdie was completely stunned, and covered her mouth with her hand, there was no shortage of cultivation geniuses among her clansmen, but she couldn't find anyone like her husband.

"Well, yes. ”

"Then doesn't it mean that you are stronger than all the powerhouses in our clan now?"

Zhan Chen smiled and said nothing.

"Great, I'm so proud of you!" Lin Mengdie jumped into Zhan Chen's arms and rubbed his neck and kissed him.

Zhan Chen was also a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't make trouble." It was a great deal to pull her away.

"No, I must tell my grandfather the good news!" Lin Mengdie said and flew out of the house.

Soon after, Lin Mengdie's family gathered in the living room, and Zhan Chen was pulled to Lin Gutian's side and sat down, faintly already on a par with this Lin family ancestor, this world is respected by the strong, so it is not surprising that Zhan Chen's status has been raised so high.

Lin Gutian smiled and said to Zhan Chen: "Zhan Chen, I didn't expect your cultivation to grow so fast, you also know that with you, our Cloud Swallowing City will definitely be a lot safer." ”

Zhan Chen said sternly: "Now the Lin family is my family, I don't need any reason to protect my family, I not only want to defend the Lin family and defend the Cloud Swallowing City, I also have to take the initiative to attack and destroy the Black Wind Army!"

Hearing his words, Lin Gutian was taken aback and asked, "Zhan Chen, are you sure? You must know that Li Fengying Demon Girl has the cultivation of the Five-Star Earth Star Realm." ”

"What are you afraid of, I also have the cultivation of the Five-Star Earth Star Realm, and I am alone, so I just count the new hatred and old hatred together!" Zhan Chen said loudly.
