562: Chapter 562 Yi Chen Returns to the Jianghu

Seeing Fiya's System interface, Chen Yi's pupils contracted slightly.

Another reward like this?

Three question marks!

Besides Yue Wen, he had actually encountered another one!

But—why did this name sound so familiar?

He suddenly recalled that when Zhao Zhao had taken him to the Heavenly Venerable Mansion before, it seemed someone had been gossiping that the fiancée of that Kalsis was named Fiya!

And she was a romantic rival of Zhao Zhao's?

Sure enough, the moment Zhao Zhao saw this woman, her expression faded!

The lively smile usually on her little face disappeared, replaced by a cold, distant calm.

"What is your business?"

Fiya's gaze swept over Zhao Zhao and landed on Chen Yi.

She frowned slightly, looked him up and down, but didn't say anything else.

Soon, her gaze returned to Zhao Zhao.

"I am just here to warn you: if you dare to seduce my fiancé, I will not let you off easily!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao was stunned for a moment.

Then, she suddenly burst into laughter.

She laughed until she was doubled over, laughing until tears almost came out, before she finally stopped!

She wiped the corners of her eyes, looked at Fiya, and a smile still lingered on her face.

"Seduce? What are you talking about? You don't actually think I came here just for that Kalsis, do you?"

Zhao Zhao grabbed Chen Yi's arm, leaned her entire body against him, and looked up at him with eyes full of laughter, "To tell you the truth, I was already married before I came here. He is my husband now. Do you really think I would betray my current husband for that insignificant Kalsis?"

After saying this, she hugged Chen Yi's arm even tighter.

She looked just like a little girlfriend seeking reliance on her boyfriend after being bullied—though in fact, that was exactly what she was doing!

As soon as these words were spoken, Fiya's face turned completely dark.

Her lips pressed into a thin line, as if something were about to erupt.

Zhao Zhao's words made her look like she was just being overly sentimental!

She had thought Zhao Zhao came here for Kalsis, thought Zhao Zhao still cared about that man, and thought Zhao Zhao was a threat!

As it turned out, the other party had long been married and didn't care at all!

She felt like a clown, having come to show off, only to be slapped in the face!

"You!"

Fiya's voice was suppressed with anger, but she didn't know what to say.

Attacking here was definitely not allowed; that would be suicide.

She had no choice but to fix her gaze on Chen Yi.

"You are that Chen Yi who inherited the legacy of Emperor Chen Yu?"

Chen Yi shrugged: "You could say that. So, what is your business?"

Although he didn't really like Fiya's nasty temper, the System conquest rewards were real!

7,500 Enhancement Points, plus three question mark rewards!

Even if he didn't conquer her in the future, there was no need to make things too awkward!

Fiya snorted coldly: "Hmph! You came here, you must be looking for that Yi Chen, right? You aren't thinking that just because you have money, you can recruit him, are you?"

Hearing this, Chen Yi was full of question marks.

Looking for Yi Chen?

Was his online name exposed?

He was looking for himself?

What the hell?

On the side, Zhao Zhao couldn't hold it back anymore and covered her mouth as she laughed out loud.

"Don't worry, we aren't looking for him. We just came to watch the fun!"

Having said that, she pulled Chen Yi and walked away.

She left Fiya standing there with a gloomy expression.

Fiya stood in place, watching Zhao Zhao leave while holding Chen Yi's arm, her fingers gripping her sleeves tightly.

That human who inherited Chen Yu's legacy was indeed Zhao Zhao's man!

Zhao Zhao married that human?

That human had inherited Chen Yu's legacy, was an Ancient God, and now held five figures or more of energy purple crystals; while she, Fiya, had gone to great lengths just to get engaged to Kalsis!

Kalsis was a newly ascended Ancient God, and that human was also an Ancient God!

Kalsis was ranked in the seven figures in the God Stele Forest, and she didn't know that human's ranking.

But someone who could inherit Chen Yu's legacy, how bad could his future be?

She suddenly felt that what she had just said was truly ridiculous.

It was as if Kalsis suddenly didn't seem so appealing anymore!

"Fiya!"

A voice came from behind.

Kalsis walked over quickly, his gaze following Zhao Zhao's departing figure, a flash of gloom in his eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.

He walked to Fiya's side and asked: "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

Fiya did not answer.

Kalsis pretended to look in the direction of her gaze and happened to see Zhao Zhao disappearing into the crowd while holding Chen Yi's arm.

His brows furrowed slightly but quickly relaxed.

"Ignore them!"

"A human, just lucky enough to inherit Chen Yu's legacy, what is there to be proud of!"

"I bet he doesn't even have the courage to challenge the God Stele Forest!"

Fiya glanced at him and shook her head.

"Forget it, finding Yi Chen is more important!"

—At the same time, on the other side of the God Stele Forest.

Yue Wen sat on her carriage, holding that white floral umbrella, looking down at the entire God Stele Forest from a high vantage point.

Her gaze swept over everyone emerging from the stele forest, and her brows furrowed slightly.

None!

There wasn't a single person who looked like Yi Chen!

"Lord Yue Wen, we have checked. Everyone who came out of the God Stele Forest has been recorded, and not one of them admits to being Yi Chen!"

"Keep searching! I don't believe he could just evaporate like that!"

"Yes!"

It wasn't just Yue Wen; people from all major factions were searching.

They turned the God Stele Forest upside down and asked every challenger who came out of the forest.

However, no one admitted to being Yi Chen—no, to be precise, some people did admit it, but they were all joking!

"Who on earth is it?"

"Logically speaking, having achieved such a good result, one would definitely promote themselves to gain more connections, status, and resources. Why does no one admit it?"

"Who knows? But there have been people in the past who were indifferent to fame and wealth and didn't value these things much; I guess this person is the same!"

"That's true—a being ranked 999th on the Ancient God Ranking, wanting to hide themselves, that's simply too easy. It still depends on fate!"

"Could it be some old monster who has been in seclusion for many years?"

"It's possible. In tens of millions of years of history, who knows how many powerhouses are in seclusion?"

"It could also be a Genius secretly cultivated by some major force who is inconvenient to reveal their identity?"

"That makes sense—"

People kept guessing, but not a single person suspected Chen Yi.

The reason was very simple!

During this time, everything about Chen Yi had long been dug up completely!

The fact that he was still a Heavenly God a year ago and caused a huge incident in the Void Realm Festival had all been dug up!

You're telling me that a human who was still a Heavenly God a year ago broke through to an Ancient God a year later, then took 999th place, suppressing countless world malice?

Are you kidding me in which world?

No one would believe it!

So no one thought in that direction!
