Chapter 694: 380

So,

Previously, the Illusionary Master who had posed a fierce battle to him had been casually decimated by Chen Sheng.

It was more than enough for Lie Yan to realize the gulf between his own strength and that of Chen Sheng.

As such, despite the many doubts in his heart, he did not dare to disturb Chen Sheng, who was engrossed in reviewing memories at this moment.

Time slowly passed by.

Soon,

the three controlled Martial Gods began to gradually regain consciousness.

Just like Lie Yan.

Upon waking up, they each experienced a splitting headache and let out hoarse voices.

“…What’s the situation now?”

Their memories had halted at the Illusionary Realm not long ago.

Therefore,

You Ren, the first to recover, swept his gaze around.

Looking at the remnants scattered all over the ground.

And Chen Sheng, not far away with his eyes closed, his mind completely unable to make sense of the scene before his eyes.

Where had the enemy gone?

Wasn’t Chen Sheng supposed to be dead?

And whose skull was beneath his feet?

He could only turn his puzzled gaze towards Lie Yan.

The other two Martial Gods also turned their gazes in the same direction.

With his head lowered in contemplation.

Frankly speaking,

Lie Yan himself had no idea how to explain how Chen Sheng, a Starburst Level warrior, was stepping on the skull of a Galaxy Level fighter.

He himself found the notion unrealistic, let alone expect the other three to believe it.

In the midst of Lie Yan’s silence,

Chen Sheng, who had finished reviewing memories, looked up at him.

“Have you all recovered?”

As soon as he finished speaking,

In the astonished eyes of the other three Martial Gods,

Lie Yan quickly stood up, with a mix of caution and respect.

“Sir, what should we do next…..”

Even the way they addressed Chen Sheng shifted from calling him by name to a term of honor.

“There are only a few Starburst Levels there, and one Galaxy Level who’s most likely half dead.”

“Now that our presence has been discovered, we might as well go straight there.

“The rest can wait until after we rescue Long Aotian.”

Chen Sheng spoke indifferently,

as if he were referring to weak ants rather than Starburst Level and Galaxy Level beings.

Through probing the Illusionary Master’s memories,

he had become aware that the whole incident from beginning to end was orchestrated by the Resistance Army.

The forces accompanying Long Aotian were one Galaxy Level and four Starburst Level fighters.

And the Galaxy Level one had already been maimed by Chen Sheng.

Even if their souls managed to escape and resurrect within the shield, their strength would be reduced to a fraction of what it was.

The urgent matter at hand

was to rush into the shield and snatch Long Aotian away before the Resistance Army could arrive.

After briefly outlining his plan,

Chen Sheng was ready to set off.

“What are you babbling about?!”

It was at this moment,

Qing He, who was completely unaware of the situation, interrupted with a frown.

Although she did not fully understand what had happened,

they had managed to escape from the enemy’s clutches.

Now, Chen Sheng was actually contemplating a direct rush to the enemy’s base?

She could never agree to such a suicidal move,

regardless of anything.

As for Shi Jian and You Ren?

They were not even paying attention to what Chen Sheng had said, still watching Lie Yan, waiting for him to clear up their confusion.

However,

given Chen Sheng’s temperament,

his tolerance of these three people previously was not only due to his indifference but also out of caution.

It was a concession made without understanding the enemy’s strength.

But now,

since he was aware that the enemies were trash,

Chen Sheng naturally lost the patience to debate with the four Martial Gods.

He could handle the situation on his own, with or without these four.

The reason he mentioned his plan to them was simply out of courtesy—

not a request, nor a command.

Just a notification.

Therefore,

Qing He’s question was outright ignored by Chen Sheng.

He turned around to leave.

But just then,

“Did I say you could leave?”

The chilly voice sounded once more,

as a glimmering green light faintly illuminated.

Chen Sheng halted in his steps,

his legs, originally striding forward, were now entangled by thick vines.

Qing He, deeply concerned about Long Aotian’s plight,

saw that Chen Sheng was disregarding her objections and heading straight for the shield.

In a moment of urgency,

she took direct action to entrap him.

“….”

Chen Sheng did not speak.

He simply turned his head, looking silently towards Qing He who had intervened.

His gaze was enigmatic,

like an ancient well carrying the chill of deep water.

Qing He, a Martial God from the Spiritual Martial World, unaware of what Chen Sheng’s look implied,

met his gaze unflinchingly, her warning icy, not noticing the look of utter horror on Lie Yan’s face beside her.

“Long Aotian is in grave danger, his life hanging by a thread.”

“How could I allow you to be the rotten apple that spoils the—”

“Qing He you—”

And then,

Bang!

The chilly words of Qing He,

Lie Yan’s attempt to stop her,

And…..

the muffled sound of Chen Sheng’s fist landing with force.

All erupted simultaneously.
