55: The demonic warriors brought here by the Demon King's order! Go to hell!
Night.
Chen Yi rested in the Emperor’s Room Number One at the inn. He held the demon king token given by Liu Ruoyun in his hand, examining it carefully.
However, after comprehending it for more than half an hour, he still couldn't grasp anything significant.
This Phantom Shadow Movement Technique was somewhat profound.
Without guidance from someone who knew it, even getting started would be very difficult.
He simply ignored it, tossing it into his Cosmos Ring, planning to take it out and look at it again when he had free time.
The next day.
As dawn broke, Chen Yi got up and went downstairs.
He found Liu Ruoyun already eating breakfast. When she saw him arrive, her eyes lit up, and then she called the waiter and ordered a portion for him as well.
“Last night, I saw Chen Holy Son eat dinner, so I figured Saint probably hasn’t reached the Bigu Realm yet. The breakfast here is quite good, Saint can give it a try,” Liu Ruoyun said.
After reaching a certain Realm in cultivation, one could enter the Bigu Realm, but whether to do so was entirely a personal choice.
Some people enjoyed the pleasure of food, so they didn’t enter the Bigu Realm.
Others focused solely on cultivation, not wanting to spend time on eating, drinking, and entertainment, so they entered the Bigu Realm.
Chen Yi looked at the dishes served and nodded slightly, “Thank you.”
He took out two Spirit Stones and handed them to her, “This is for the meal.”
Liu Ruoyun was stunned for a moment, “It’s just breakfast. I’ll treat you. Besides, Chen Holy Son saved me yesterday.”
“The matter of saving you has already been repaid with the demon king token. One thing is one thing,” Chen Yi said indifferently, his tone calm but unyielding.
Liu Ruoyun heard this and smiled helplessly, “Saint distinguishes things so clearly. Then I’ll accept it.”
“Ding! The host rejected Liu Ruoyun’s good intentions, rejecting the possibility of a further step with the other party! Reward the host with one martial skill completion card!”
Chen Yi’s eyes flashed.
What a coincidence…
He had just been feeling depressed last night because he couldn’t comprehend the Phantom Shadow Movement Technique, and today he received a martial skill completion card…
If the System said it wasn’t intentional, he wouldn’t believe it!
After breakfast, Liu Ruoyun asked, “Chen Holy Son, what are your plans next?”
“I’ll stay in Phoenix City for a few days to see.”
“I see. I plan to return to my Sect first. I came here to perform a mission, and this demon king token was also obtained by chance during the mission. Now that the mission is complete, I should go back and report.”
Liu Ruoyun said. In her heart, she wanted to spend more time with Chen Yi.
However, after a short period of interaction, she knew that truly getting closer to him would not be easy. If she continued to stay by his side, she feared he might think she had ulterior motives.
“Mm, alright, I’ll see you off,” Chen Yi said indifferently.
This surprised Liu Ruoyun. She had thought he would at most say “have a safe journey.”
She didn’t expect him to actually want to see her off?
And soon, she understood Chen Yi’s meaning.
As Chen Yi saw her out of the city, he swaggered with the demon king token hanging from his waist, as if afraid others wouldn’t know that this treasure, coveted by those on the Demonic Path, was on him.
“Blackwind Mountain couldn’t have sent only those few people yesterday, and now that those people are dead, Blackwind Mountain will definitely continue to send people to seize the demon king token!”
“Those people have very likely already arrived in Phoenix City and are secretly watching us!”
“Chen Holy Son’s action is to tell these people that the demon king token is now with him, so they shouldn’t bother me anymore, allowing me to return safely…”
Thinking of this, Liu Ruoyun couldn’t help but feel moved.
She said, “Chen Holy Son, you really don’t have to do this. Phoenix City is a mixed bag, and besides Blackwind Mountain, there are probably many others coveting this item. Doing this is tantamount to putting yourself in danger!”
Chen Yi said indifferently, “Since I took this demon king token, I never thought of staying out of it! If I take your item, I naturally have to completely eradicate your troubles. Whoever wants this demon king token, let them come!”
“Chen Holy Son, you really are…”
Liu Ruoyun didn’t know what to say.
She now only felt that the figure of the person before her was incredibly tall!
That unique charm on him impacted her heart even more!
If yesterday, upon first meeting, she was attracted by his appearance, temperament, and reputation, then now, she was truly impressed by his character and courage!
“Alright, the mountains are high and the waters long; I won’t see you off any further,” Chen Yi said indifferently.
“Alright, Chen Holy Son, may we meet again if fate allows!”
Liu Ruoyun’s figure flashed, and she immediately left on her sword.
Dozens of miles away.
The Third Ancestor, who was secretly protecting Chen Yi, observed Chen Yi with his Divine Sense, seeing everything that happened to him.
A hint of relief showed in his eyes, “Courageous and responsible! Good, he has my demeanor from back then!”
…………
On the street.
Chen Yi played with the demon king token in his hand, sensing gazes sweeping over him.
Several gazes fell on the demon king token in his hand.
“The appearance of that token… could it be the rumored demon king token?!”
“Good heavens, carrying the demon king token so ostentatiously through the streets, is this guy not afraid of death?!”
“My goodness, where did this Lenglutouqing come from?!”
“The person looks quite handsome, how come his brain isn’t so bright.”
“This kid, he wouldn’t not know what a demon king token is, would he? Otherwise, why would he carry this thing so brazenly through the market?”
“Possibly, let me try him out!”
On Chen Yi’s way back to the inn, an Old Mister holding a flag with the words “Iron Mouth Divination” written on it walked over and exclaimed when he saw Chen Yi, “Good heavens, Young Master, I see your glabella is dark, I’m afraid a great disaster is imminent!”
“Is it my great disaster, or the great disaster of those who are looking for me?” Chen Yi said indifferently.
The Old Mister’s expression changed slightly, then he continued, “Naturally, it’s Young Master’s great disaster, and from what I see, the root of this disaster is the token in your hand. Give it to me, and I will perform a ritual to dispel the evil Qi and ensure your safety!”
After speaking, he couldn’t help but reach out directly to grab the demon king token.
But his wrist was held by Chen Yi, “Old Mister, this item is not something you can take!”
“It seems you know the value of this token.”
The Old Mister no longer concealed himself, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes, and then the flag in his hand, which read “Iron Mouth Divination,” shook.
Immediately, black smoke billowed from it, and ghostly claws, one after another, extended from within, grabbing at Chen Yi!
That flag was actually a Demonic Path Profound Weapon, the Myriad Soul Banner!
And the School most skilled at refining this kind of Profound Weapon was Soul Refining Mountain, one of the Demonic Path’s Three Mountains and Four Schools!
“Playing with the souls of the dead is an unforgivable sin, Old Mister, go to Hell!”
Chen Yi said indifferently, and a scorching hot flame suddenly erupted from his body!
The raging flames, mixed with the essence of Pure Yang, were precisely the Pure Yang Fire that countered evil demons and ghosts!!
Boom!
Before the ghostly claws could fully extend from the Myriad Soul Banner, both they and the Myriad Soul Banner were burned to ashes, and the Old Mister was also covered by the flames!
The Old Mister let out a desperate scream, struggling madly, trying to get away.
But his wrist was firmly grasped by Chen Yi, and he couldn’t move at all. He was thus burned into a pile of ashes by the Pure Yang Fire, not even a speck of bone dust remaining.
