116: Disordered mental constructs and dialogues

Deep within the Polar Region.

Numerous prodigies from Dragon Country and Grizzly Bear Country gathered together quietly.

As they looked at each other, their gazes would occasionally shift toward the silent figures scattered in various directions.

Lian Chuan paced back and forth a few times, then looked up at Mo Fan, who had his head slightly lowered.

“Big Brother Mo Fan.”

“Brother Yan still hasn't arrived. Something must have changed.”

“Why don't you ask? Maybe we don't have to leave anymore.”

Mo Fan looked up at him briefly but did not answer.

Lian Chuan's face turned red with anxiety.

“Brother Yan already had King Rank combat power when he resolved the beast tide crisis at the Jiang Residence.”

“He might have already broken through to King Rank by now. With his abilities, he could be participating in the great war in Magic City at this moment!”

“Just let us go back!”

“So what if we die!”

“Do you see anyone here who's afraid?”

His voice was loud, immediately drawing numerous gazes toward them.

“What?”

“Lin Yan already has King Rank combat power?”

“Are we waiting here for him?”

“If he can go participate in the great war, why do we have to run?”

Numerous figures crowded around.

Even Gu Chen, who had been in a state of dejection, seemed to think of something and suddenly rushed over.

He grabbed Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan, who were standing together, his face full of excitement.

“You guys must have a way!”

“Right?”

At this point, a flash of struggle appeared in his eyes. He took two steps back and bowed deeply.

“As fellow members of the Human Race, I beg you, please save Blue Star!”

As soon as those words were spoken—

Swish—!

Countless eyes focused on the bewildered Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan.

Fellow members of the Human Race?

What did Gu Chen mean by that?

The prodigies from both Dragon Country and Grizzly Bear Country were filled with confusion.

The righteousness of the nation, the crisis of Blue Star—isn't everyone responsible for that?

Why did it sound like he was pleading for help from an alien?

Furthermore...

What could these two fourth-rank Martial Artists, Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan, possibly do?

“What did you say?” Qi Feng instantly appeared before Gu Chen, his gaze scanning back and forth between the three of them.

Gu Chen said nothing, his eyes fixed intently on Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan.

Clearly...

He only wanted a response or an action.

Because during this period, he had become convinced that these three, who had never appeared in his previous life, must be humans from the starry skies.

Especially Lin Yan, this peer who possessed a cultivation growth speed that defied all logic.

Even if he had only heard of this 'Human Race' from the mouth of a Yao Race soldier back then, it was currently the only way.

“I...” Lian Chuan's lips parted slightly. “What on earth are you talking about?”

Xue Cheng also spoke in a heavy voice.

“Gu Chen.”

“We don't know what you're talking about.”

“Chuan Zi's meaning was very clear.”

“Since we've waited here for Brother Yan for so long and he hasn't arrived, the situation might have changed.”

“And the primary reason for this change is very likely him.”

“So instead of continuing to wait here, it's better for everyone to go back.”

“Or at least send someone out to get a clear understanding of the current situation outside.”

“After all, in this place, all external communication devices have completely failed.”

As those words fell, Gu Chen's heart jolted, and he immediately gave Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan a look of understanding.

“Right, right, right.”

“Lin Yan must have already gone to resolve the crisis!”

“With him willing to act without reservation, there will definitely be no problem.”

Regardless of why you don't want to reveal your identities, as long as you're willing to call for reinforcements, that is the best help for Blue Star.

Of course, it's best if it's done by Lin Yan, whose status is clearly more important!

Thinking of this...

He immediately bowed to Xue Cheng and Lian Chuan again.

“Thank you.”

“Wait, no...” The two of them instantly jumped back, exchanging a speechless glance.

Did Gu Chen take the wrong medicine today?

They were only making a judgment of possibility based on the message Lin Yan had sent them from the Jiang Residence to report his safety, and their absolute faith in him.

How did it turn into him being a savior in Gu Chen's mouth!

This series of baffling dialogues left everyone present completely dazed.

All they knew was...

They were waiting for Lin Yan, and this youth, hailed as Blue Star's strongest Prodigy, might have become the hero who would save Blue Star.

Finally...

It was very likely they wouldn't have to carry out the Spark Plan anymore.

So, what else was there to think about?

“Yeah!”

“Why don't we send someone out to make contact and see what the current situation is like?”

Faced with everyone's comments, even Liu Bai and Black Ice showed hesitation on their faces.

Finally, Mo Fan looked at Qi Feng.

“Elder Qi.”

“There's still some time before the scheduled deadline. Why don't you go out and get a sense of the situation?”

Qi Feng, who was still immersed in what Gu Chen had just said, looked up and glanced at everyone.

“Alright.”

As he walked out, he continued to ponder why Gu Chen would say such things.

Could it be because this kid was the second Prodigy to undergo the hidden stage, so he saw something regarding Lin Yan?

And that something was information Lin Yan had never disclosed to the Speaker.

For example, that Lin Yan had obtained a means to contact the Human Race in the starry skies?

That doesn't seem right either.

Fellow members of the Human Race... Qi Feng's footsteps paused as all the information regarding Lin Yan's trio flashed through his mind, a trace of shock appearing in his eyes.

No way!!

Are these three kids members of that starry sky Human Race whose existence is unknown?

That would explain why Lin Yan has such an absurd cultivation growth speed and can fully understand the Starry Sky Battle Net.

No.

If that's the case...

Was his goal originally the prodigy token of the Starry Sky Battle Net?

But judging from all his patriotic actions, it doesn't seem like it!

And how did this Gu Chen find out?

Qi Feng's mind was a complete mess... Meanwhile, two streaks of high-speed light pierced through the sky above the Su Prefecture in Dragon Country.

Jiang Mobai's expression was solemn.

“The wristband communication functions have all collapsed.”

“Fighting must be underway.”

“When I left yesterday, that Yao Race youth said it.”

“One night's time.”

“He only gave Brother Zhou one night to consider.”

At this point, he turned to look at the figure beside him, who was radiating killing intent, and hesitated to speak.

“Are you really sure?”

Lin Yan looked down at the deathly silent city below, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

“That Yao Race member better pray that everyone is alright.”

“Otherwise, a hundred lives wouldn't be enough for him to pay with!”

As his voice fell—

Boom—!

The heavenly emperor armor on his body directly transformed into its combat form, and his speed exploded.

“Speaker, you're too slow.”

“I'll head over first.”

Jiang Mobai stared at the black light shooting away, his lips parting slightly.

Wait.

You kid broke through two minor Realms, and your Aura directly reached the Third Rank?

So you were holding back for me while we were traveling earlier?

He immediately stopped conserving his strength and flew at full speed.

They were almost there anyway.

He had mostly recovered.
