Chapter 2346: Chapter 2366: Why Does He Deserve This?_1

When Lin Chen made this remark, the entire audience was shocked.

Although the current conflict between sects involved Eastern Brilliance and the Northern Sea, this was, after all, the Northern Sea, and the vast majority of the cultivators watching the fight were cultivators from the Northern Sea.

The name of Ghost True Man might be known to only a portion of people in Eastern Brilliance, but in the Northern Sea, in the cultivation world, it was a name known to all.

Just as Ghost True Man himself had said, his reputation truly was fearsome enough to silence crying children, for he had committed many evil deeds. He was one of the infamous demons of the Northern Sea, the kind from legends.

A thousand years ago, Elder Taishang Li Qianxing of Lihaizong, one of Myriad Immortal Hall’s Twelve Immortal Sects, made a move against Ghost True Man. It was said that Ghost True Man was severely injured and managed to escape death by relying on a secret treasure. After that, there was no further news of him.

Over the centuries, the legend of Ghost True Man gradually faded. Everyone subconsciously thought that Ghost True Man should only exist in legends and would no longer have the chance to wreak havoc in the human world. However, to everyone’s surprise, he returned a thousand years later!

What brings Ghost True Man here?

Given Ghost True Man’s strength, he could kill silently, escape unnoticed, and hardly anyone could kill him. After all, he was one of the top powerhouses. There were not many who were qualified to be his opponent, and naturally, even fewer who could capture him.

At the level of strength that Ghost True Man possessed, as long as he had no intention to engage in battle, as long as he wanted to flee, it would be tough for anyone to capture him.

But no one expected that Ghost True Man would reveal his identity for the first time, take action for the first time, and then strike an iron plate so impenetrably hard.

This young man did not seem to have any particularly outstanding features. His strength was not weak, but for someone beyond Daluo, that was about it. With Ghost True Man’s strength, he could have killed him in an instant.

Seeing the three beautiful women of different styles beside Lin Chen and thinking about Ghost True Man’s hobbies, everyone had figured out Ghost True Man’s reason for targeting Lin Chen. But Lin Chen’s actions were still shockingly unexpected.

Not only did Lin Chen manage to save his life from Ghost True Man’s hands, but he also called big shots from the Three Sects and together, they cornered Ghost True Man!

Ghost True Man probably never dreamed of this scenario.

Just now, Ghost True Man was defeated, splattering blood across the sky as he fled, with the big shots of the Three Sects closely on his heels. It was clear that Ghost True Man was in deep trouble this time.

With his top-notch abilities, dealing with a single big shot from the Three Sects would definitely be no issue. Even if he couldn’t beat them, he would surely be able to retreat smoothly. But one against three? Who could withstand that!

Those were the top-level big shots of the Three Sects. Each might not be considered the very best among saints, but they were definitely among the cream of the top ranks in the Immortal Realm. Combined, they could withstand quite a bit, but certainly not someone like Ghost True Man.

Everyone’s gaze simultaneously fell on Lin Chen and the others, eyes filled with astonishment.

One man and three women?

And every woman is so beautiful?

What’s their relationship?

The young man claims he is a Loose Cultivator, but by what means can he summon the Three Sects’ big shots to fight for him?

The middle-aged man from Yue Shen Jiao (Moon God Sect) was equally surprised when he heard Lin Chen’s words.

They were the organizers of the conflict between the sects and had remained impartial in their stance. But wasn’t there still a few days left before the battle commenced?

So far, neither individuals from the Three Sects nor the Sea God Sect had arrived at Moon God Island. It seemed everyone adhered to the principle of making a grand entrance at the last moment; otherwise, showing up early would make it easier to expose one’s own side.

Yet now, before the conflict between the sects had even started, this Loose Cultivator named Lin Chen managed to summon big shots from the Three Sects to besiege Ghost True Man?

On what grounds?

The refined-looking middle-aged man asked curiously, "What is your relationship with the Three Sects, and why can you ask them to help you?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "I once helped the Three Sects, and they gave me three tokens. When in danger, I can ask for their help. Just now, seeing Ghost True Man was too formidable, I used all of them."

As soon as Lin Chen spoke these words, people were astonished once again.

He had helped the Three Sects, and they promised the assistance of top powerhouses at his call? What favor did he do to owe such a great debt of gratitude?

In the darkness of the night, someone shouted, "Ten years ago, the Three Sects Visitation Group was attacked in the Endless Sea. The children of the Three Sects were almost completely slaughtered. It is said that someone saved them, ultimately thwarting the attackers’ conspiracy... Was that you?"

Although they maintained the status of allies and the demeanor of pulling together in times of trouble during this sectarian conflict, that did not mean the Three Sects were on loving terms with each other. In Eastern Brilliance, it might not go as far as a life-and-death struggle between them, but at least it was a level of competition as peers.

Wow, who’s being so ruthless, pointing straight at me?

The Three Sects and Sea God Sect had investigated the truth behind the sea attack for ten years, seeking to identify the real culprit. Though they made some headway, they ultimately failed to completely find the mastermind. They roughly determined that a hidden force wanted to kill the children of the Three Sects and stir up hostility between the Three Sects and the Sea God Sect, inciting them to fight each other to the death.

Although ten years have passed and the sectarian conflict has restarted, the shadowy force involved would certainly be monitoring everything here. If the fact that I saved the children of the Three Sects became known, wouldn’t that put me on that force’s radar?
