Chapter 896: Chapter 896 Heavenly Pride Casualties

When the crowd heard this, they immediately looked up at the back of the Demon Wolf and were surprised to find that there were actually two figures riding on it.

This discovery made everyone gasp in shock, as it was unimaginable that someone could ride on such a formidable Demon Wolf.

And also, why did that person look so familiar?

Lin Chen and Yan Ruyu leaped down from the back of the Demon Wolf, landing in front of the crowd, while the Sky Howling Demon Wolf loomed imperiously over everyone.

The crowd was amazed to see Lin Chen dismounting the Demon Wolf, wondering how he, being only at the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm, could ride such a powerful creature.

Moreover, how could someone of his cultivation survive for four months in the Secret Realm?

Many martial artists with higher cultivations than Lin Chen had perished in this realm.

Yet, the fact that Lin Chen had dismounted from the Demon Wolf was undeniable.

Xiao Changkong’s gaze fell on Lin Chen, his fist clenched involuntarily, his face filled with murderous intent.

He had thought that Lin Chen was dead, but now, not only was Lin Chen standing unharmed before him, but he had also tamed a powerful Demon Wolf in this Secret Realm, which deeply unsettled him.

At this moment, Wuyan and Han Tianyu looked at Lin Chen with furrowed brows.

They had heard of Lin Chen’s feats, how he had slain Xue Yuanqing of the Red Soul Hall at such a young age, which was almost unbelievable.

Thus, they did not believe those rumors about Lin Chen.

However, seeing Lin Chen riding the Demon Wolf now, the crowd began to believe those rumors.

After all, no one else had the ability to tame this Demon Wolf in front of them.

At this moment, Gong Siyuan clenched his fists tightly, his gaze sharp as a knife fell on Lin Chen, his teeth almost gnashing.

Especially seeing Lin Chen and Yan Ruyu hand in hand descending from the Demon Wolf crushed the last bit of hope in Gong Siyuan’s heart.

Back at the Formation Sect, Gong Siyuan did not dare to move against Lin Chen because Lin Chen had the backing of the Qin Family.

But Gong Siyuan believed that once Lin Chen left the Qin Family, he would be nothing.

However, Lin Chen had shattered his last obsession.

Even without the protection of the Qin Family, Lin Chen was able to tame a Demon Wolf with his own strength.

Watching how close Yan Ruyu and Lin Chen were, Gong Siyuan felt tormented.

"Apprentice Sister Yan, I’m so glad you’re alright. Do you know how worried I’ve been about you these past months? I’ve been looking everywhere for you, afraid that you might be in danger."

"Were you with Lin Chen all this time?"

Gong Siyuan asked with a sour tone.

Being alone together in the Secret Realm for four months, one could only imagine what might have happened, and Gong Siyuan dared not think about it.

He could not understand how his pure and proud apprentice sister could stay with such a loser.

Gong Siyuan involuntarily clenched his fists; if not for the Sky Howling Demon Wolf glaring menacingly at everyone, he might have rushed forward to kill Lin Chen then and there.

"Senior Brother Gong, this is my personal matter, and it seems to have nothing to do with you."

"Besides, ten of our sect brothers and sisters entered here together; you really should not focus your attention solely on me."

Yan Ruyu did not appreciate Gong Siyuan’s attempt to control her life and coldly responded.

"Why am I particularly worried about you? Don’t you understand, don’t you understand my feelings for you?"

Gong Siyuan looked at Yan Ruyu and suddenly yelled emotionally.

Yan Ruyu frowned upon hearing this.

Gong Siyuan liked her, and she had tactfully refused him many times for the sake of their sect’s dignity, but he had persisted.

"But I don’t have feelings for you."

Yan Ruyu looked at Gong Siyuan, this time her voice was loud, no longer considering his dignity.

"You don’t like me? Then who do you like?"

"Who?"

"Is it this jerk?"

Gong Siyuan pointed at Lin Chen and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu looked at Lin Chen, hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Seeing this, Lin Chen was shocked inside. How could Yan Ruyu start liking him?

What would Xia Wanxin think if this news reached the sect? Would she not turn everything upside down?

That was only four months, how could such a thing happen?

"Sister, honestly, I’m not that good; you shouldn’t like me."

Lin Chen looked at Yan Ruyu, saying this because he did not want to be constantly bothered by Xia Wanxin, especially in a crying and fussing manner.

"You!"

"You bastard!"

Yan Ruyu had finally mustered the courage to nod and hint that she liked him, but Lin Chen rejected her so directly, making her cheeks burn. She didn’t expect him to turn her down so directly; did she not have any appeal at all?

At that moment, seeing Lin Chen reject Yan Ruyu filled Gong Siyuan with endless rage.

He saw Lin Chen’s behavior as a direct challenge to him, a deliberate show off.

"Boy, you just wait."

Gong Siyuan clenched his fist involuntarily, muttering darkly inside.

Even though he desperately wanted to kill Lin Chen right then, he dared not act rashly, especially with the Demon Wolf nearby, seemingly obeying Lin Chen.

If Gong Siyuan wanted to settle things with Lin Chen, it would have to be back on the Duel Platform in the Mysterious Heaven Continent.

Gong Siyuan gave Lin Chen a cold look and then left.

As he left, he did not forget to give Jiang Jiayun a cold glance.

Jiang Jiayun, this woman, had dared to betray him and sided with Lin Chen, he would surely settle this slowly with Jiang Jiayun.

Seeing Gong Siyuan’s murderous gaze, Jiang Jiayun was frightened and edged closer to Lin Chen.

Jiang Jiayun was well aware that her actions would infuriate Gong Siyuan, but she had to make a choice because, no matter what her choice was, she would inevitably confront Gong Siyuan eventually. She might as well take this opportunity and align herself with Lin Chen.

Jiang Jiayun was clear that without Lin Chen’s protection, her fate would be miserable.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s gaze shifted to the martial artists from various forces.

Including the four from the Divine Flame Sect, there should have been sixty-four people entering the Divine Flame Secret Realm.

However, now, only thirty people were left, not even half.

This showed how serious the casualties had been in the Secret Realm, considering that all these individuals were the Heavenly Prides of various powers.
