Chapter 1543: Chapter 1563: Battle Hall Disciple, Depart!_1

Lin Chen’s heart was slightly flustered.

When they bade farewell in the Barren Wilderness, they sat on the mountaintop in the Ghost Tower, she nestled on his shoulder, telling him to wait for her in the Immortal Realm.

Now facing another separation, the two of them sitting shoulder-to-shoulder, she kissed him?

Although she only kissed his cheek, it was clear that it had surpassed their friendship.

Lin Chen deliberated inwardly, whispering, "Fairy..."

Yao Xuanji replied in a low voice, "Don’t be formal, just call me Xuanji."

Lin Chen paused, all the words he had prepared swallowed back in an instant.

He didn’t know what to say!

She clearly knew he had a wife, even just asked if he would visit them, but she suddenly did this - does she not mind at all?

Let it be, don’t say anything.

The more one talks about feelings, the more chaotic they become.

Anyway, the two haven’t anything concrete between them now, and they are about to part. Whatever happens, happens.

When the time comes when she genuinely needs him, he will definitely help her with all his might.

As for the rest, let’s see how things turn out.

"Xuanji..."

"Hmm!"

"Take good care of yourself. There is no need to worry about firewood with a green mountain left."

"Okay!"

Yao Xuanji cheerfully agreed and then rested her head on Lin Chen’s shoulder again, the movement softer and more natural than before.

Lin Chen didn’t say much, just letting her lean against him. The two of them sat silently, watching the sunset slowly sink into the distant mountains, and the sky gradually darkened.

"It’s getting dark..."

"Yes, let’s go back!"

Yao Xuanji sat up, carefree and disjointed in her response. With a push of both hands, she was suspended in mid-air, looking at Lin Chen in front of her and smiling sweetly.

The two didn’t continue chatting and returned to the inn, each retiring for the night.

The next day, the team reached the Boundary Gate in the northern part of the Immortal Domain.

Lin Chen had seen the Boundary Gate above the Barren Wilderness, but compared to the present one, that was insignificant.

This gate towered thousands of kilometers and was over a kilometer wide. It was filled with a white light, like a white ocean, cutting across Heaven and Earth.

Standing before the Boundary Gate, Lin Chen asked with awe, "So majestic, where does this gate lead to?"

"Blood Martial Continent."

Yao Xuanji answered, "The Immortal Palace is on the Heavenly Mystery Continent."

Lin Chen nodded. He knew where the Immortal Palace was; after all, he had read books for several months and was very familiar with the Thunder Immortal Domain.

After a discussion, Yao Xuanji and others prepared for their departure.

Yao Xuanji turned her head, looked at Lin Chen. "I’m leaving."

Lin Chen laughed lightly, "Have a safe journey."

Yao Xuanji pursed her lips, looked deeply at Lin Chen, turned around, and walked into the enormous Boundary Gate, her figure rapidly disappearing.

Ao Li stood beside Lin Chen with her hands behind her back. As she watched Yao Xuanji and others leave, she turned her head and laughed, "Mr. Lin, what are your plans now?"

Lin Chen laughingly replied, "I’ll make a trip back to the White Crane Immortal Sect, then maybe travel to other continents."

Ao Li nodded, "The Wanli Palace is always welcoming Mr. Lin. If there’s trouble, feel free to come to me."

"Okay, thank you Senior Ao."

"We should go. Be careful."

"Okay!"

Lin Chen glanced at the Boundary Gate one more time before turning around and leaving.

On his journey, Lin Chen was cautious and careful, reaching the White Crane Immortal Sect without incident.

As soon as Lin Chen entered the White Crane Immortal Sect, he sensed that something was amiss, the entire sky was filled with flying Sect Disciples, creating a tense atmosphere.

What’s going on?

Is there an enemy invasion?

There are no external enemies at the gate though.

Lin Chen casually stopped a disciple in flight. "What happened to our sect?"

The disciple recognized Lin Chen at a glance; after all, Lin Chen was one of the brightest figures in the entire sect now.

"Reporting to Ancestral Master, the Sect Disciples were attacked by the Bloody Hand Sect on an expedition mission. Some disciples have already died. The remaining disciples are currently holding their positions and waiting for help. The Sect Master has sent an urgent message that all Battle Hall disciples over the immortal level should gather at the square for a march to rescue the Sect disciples!"

Lin Chen cleared the way. "Okay, go ahead!"

After the disciple left, Lin Chen headed to the main Sect Hall.

Meng Gongxin was hanging at the front of the sect gate, looking serious and angry. Around him was a row of powerful figures from the sect, including the Sect Leaders of various peaks, the Enforcement Hall Master, etc., all looking solemn.

Lin Chen flew over, Meng Gongxin and the others saw him, and their surprised expressions turned into respect. They saluted one after another.

"Junior Martial Uncle!"

Lin Chen waved his hand. "What’s happening?"

Meng Gongxin straightened up. "Elder Dong Ming led a team to the Tasisgan desert for an adventure. It is said that a divine artifact has emerged there. Soon after, some disciples’ everlasting lanterns were extinguished. Then, we received Dong Ming’s distress message."

"The message said that because of their chance encounter, they found the divine artifact. However, they were ambushed by the Bloody Hand Sect, causing numerous casualties. Dong Ming has led the disciples to retreat into the Frenzied Sand Canyon, utilizing its notoriously harsh terrain to forestall them and wait for our rescue."

Lin Chen didn’t ask further. "I’ll go too."

Meng Gongxin didn’t refuse. This Junior Martial Uncle might not have a high realm, but his combat power was outstanding. He could even instantly kill a Peak Golden Immortal with one sword strike.

"Okay!"

In the blink of an eye, the square was filled with numerous immortals and other disciples that had come upon hearing the news.

Meng Gongxin didn’t waste words, he swung his hand, "Battle Hall disciples, let’s go!"
