Primordial Star Scripture

Seeing this situation, Liu Chan'er of course did not hesitate anymore; she directly spoke out, using the name of the Taixuan Sect to intimidate Zhou Yuntian while also swiftly descending beside Ye Chen.

Having confirmed Ye Chen's identity, she naturally had to protect Ye Chen's safety as her sister Jiang Yao had entrusted her to do.

Even if Ye Chen faced a joint attack, she would stand shoulder to shoulder with him in battle!

Though Liu Chan'er was only thirteen years old and her True Qi Realm was just cultivated to the seventh level of True Qi, as a disciple under Fairy Jia Luo, a supreme figure of the Taixuan Sect, and as Jiang Yao's junior sister, she also possessed a few formidable skills.

Even if she couldn't help Ye Chen deal with Zhou Yuntian who was at the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, she had some confidence in leading Ye Chen to escape unscathed.

Now, faced with Zhou Yuntian whose killing intent was clear, Ye Chen finally had a significant reinforcement!

"Jiang Yao sent you to find me? To protect my safety?"

"How would she know that I am in danger?"

Hearing the words of the sword-carrying girl in front of him who called herself "Liu Chan'er," Ye Chen was also taken aback.

He had not expected that the danger he faced would be known to Jiang Yao.

What Ye Chen did not know was that the Twin Flying Swords he and Jiang Yao had obtained in the Thousand Lotus Cave Abode, "Crimson Fire" and "Ghostly Water," complemented each other and possessed a mysterious connection.

His agitated spirit caused "Crimson Fire" to react violently, which allowed the distant Jiang Yao to sense that something was amiss.

"How would Jiang Yao know that you are in danger?" Liu Chan'er shook her small head, "I don't know either, all I know is that Jiang Yao was very frantic, and she told me I must protect you!"

Liu Chan'er's words warmed Ye Chen's heart.

Jiang Yao, the girl who had joined him in braving the challenges of the Thousand Lotus Cave Abode, still cared so much for him even after returning to the Taixuan Sect!

In the sky above.

When Zhou Yuntian saw the girl on the eagle descend in front of Ye Chen and speak with him in a very close manner, his expression grew increasingly ugly.

He had not expected that the person from the Taixuan Sect actually had a connection with Ye Chen.

After a change in expression, Zhou Yuntian spoke to Liu Chan'er, "Little girl, you claim to be from the Taixuan Sect and have come here, but what for?"

"This Ye Chen has a blood feud with me! If you have nothing else, please step aside, lest I accidentally injure you when I kill him!"

Even if he feared the reputation of the Taixuan Sect, if Liu Chan'er had simply come alone to back up Ye Chen, then Zhou Yuntian wouldn't fear much. His only concern was if big figures from the Taixuan Sect were implicated.

If that were the case, he would have to carefully weigh his options before killing Ye Chen, even if he decided to kill Ye Chen, he would have to find another method.

If no big figures from the Taixuan Sect were involved, then he, Zhou Yuntian, wasn't afraid of anything.

After all, the Taixuan Sect would not deliberate with him, an elder of the Heavenly Net Sect, over a stranger who had no relation to them.

"I act under the order of my sister, the true disciple of the Taixuan Sect 'Jiang Yao,' to protect Ye Chen!"

"Anyone who opposes Ye Chen is opposing my sister 'Jiang Yao'!"

Liu Chan'er looked at Zhou Yuntian and declared aloud.

At the same time, she took out an ancient-looking token and held it high.

This ancient token was engraved with the mountains and clouds of the Taixuan Sect on the front and bore the words "Taixuan, Jiang Yao" on the back!

Hearing Liu Chan'er shout the name of Jiang Yao, many disciples from the Heavenly Net Sect and Qingyun Sect in the plaza exclaimed, "Jiang Yao? Someone came to protect this Ye Chen under the orders of Jiang Yao of the Taixuan Sect?!"

"How does this Ye Chen know Jiang Yao?"

"The fairy-like Jiang Yao actually cares so much about Ye Chen? What, exactly, is his relationship with Jiang Yao?"

In the Eastern Region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, among the disciples of the thirty-six sects, there were countless who admired and worshiped Jiang Yao, and many who secretly loved her. They had never heard of Jiang Yao being close to any man.

Now, suddenly hearing that the girl on the eagle had come to protect Ye Chen under the orders of Jiang Yao, they were completely dumbfounded.

They could not fathom that this Ye Chen, pursued by a mid-stage Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse, with a vow to never rest until he was dead, could be connected with their admired and worshiped sister Jiang Yao.

And apparently, it was a very close relationship!

This caused the hearts of many sect disciples to shatter.

"Taixuan Command!"

These sect disciples were utterly shocked by the name "Jiang Yao," while Zhou Yuntian and the eight great Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses of Qingyun Sect who stood in the air, looked at the ancient token in Liu Chan'er's hand simultaneously.

Upon seeing this ancient token, their eyes all flashed brightly.

They directly recognized the token in Liu Chan'er's hand.

This token was unmistakably the Taixuan Command, a unique token that only the Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses of the Taixuan Sect could possess!

"Taixuan Command, this Ye Chen actually has the backing of a Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse, and from the Taixuan Sect no less!"

"Zhou Yuntian is untouchable, but so are the Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses of the Taixuan Sect! This makes things difficult!"

Qingyun Sect's Sect Master Luo Kun exchanged glances with the other seven elders, and silently communicated with each other through transmitted messages.

"Jiang Yao?"

"Could it be the rumored prodigy who entered the Spirit Sea Realm at just sixteen, Jiang Yao from the thirty-six sects?"

Upon hearing Liu Chan'er's words, Zhou Yuntian felt a sudden relief.

As long as Ye Chen's matter wasn't linked to a big shot from the Taixuan Sect, he wasn't too concerned about a young Jiang Yao.

"If it were something else, I would have given that sister of yours, 'Jiang Yao,' some face, but as Ye Chen and I have a vendetta of a killed son, even if Jiang Yao herself came today, I would still slay Ye Chen!"

"Little girl, if you know what's good for you, stand aside. Otherwise, if I accidentally harm you, don't say I didn't warn you!"

Zhou Yuntian's thunderous voice carried over to Liu Chan'er, and at the same time, the True Qi he had retracted into his body surged out once again.

Liu Chan'er saw that Zhou Yuntian still intended to act even after she had taken out the "Taixuan Command." Her face flushed with anger, and with a "swoosh," she drew the bright treasure sword from behind her: "Harm me? Just try! Ye Chen isn't afraid of you, and neither am I, Liu Chan'er!"

"Hold it!"

Just as Zhou Yuntian was about to make a move, and just when Ye Chen was preparing to tell Liu Chan'er not to interfere, Qingyun Sect's Sect Master Luo Kun suddenly stepped forward, standing between Ye Chen and Zhou Yuntian.

"What, Brother Luo Kun, are you trying to stop me, too?" Zhou Yuntian's eyebrows raised in anger as he glared at Luo Kun.

"How could I dare! Brother Zhou, you seek vengeance for your son, and we wouldn't presume to stop you," Luo Kun said with a fist and palm salute to Zhou Yuntian, "However, Brother Zhou, given that the little girl has taken out the 'Taixuan Command,' if you really strike down Ye Chen directly, our Qingyun Sect would be in a difficult position with that Spirit Sea Realm friend from the Taixuan Sect."

"Brother Zhou, with your mid-Spirit Sea Realm cultivation, forcefully killing a True Qi Realm youth would tarnish your reputation even if it were spread out. How about this, Brother Zhou? Send a few of your True Qi Realm disciples to fight Ye Chen. If Ye Chen can survive against your True Qi Realm disciples, then it's a testament to his abilities.

If Ye Chen dies at the hands of your disciples, it means he was not skilled enough, and that friend from the Taixuan Sect presumably won't blame us either. Brother Zhou, how does that sound?"

Luo Kun's words clearly meant to prevent Zhou Yuntian from acting directly.

Liu Chan'er's presentation of the Taixuan Command had failed to shake Zhou Yuntian but appeared to have shocked the Qingyun Sect's members enough that they felt compelled to speak on behalf of Ye Chen.

"Do the rest of you feel the same?"

Zhou Yuntian then turned his gaze to the other seven elders beside Luo Kun. Although he was not afraid of Luo Kun's interference, if the eight great Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses of Qingyun Sect were to stop him, then directly killing Ye Chen would become troublesome.

"Brother Zhou, the sect master's words are our collective sentiment."

"We hope Brother Zhou will give us some consideration."

Zhou Yuntian looked at Luo Kun who stood in his path, and then at the other seven elders, his gaze flickering.

Suddenly, Luo Kun's voice transmitted directly into Zhou Yuntian's ears: "Brother Zhou, this matter involves a Spirit Sea Realm disciple from the Taixuan Sect, and we don't take it as lightly as you do, we must show her some courtesy."

"My earlier suggestion, if the disciple you send ends up killing Ye Chen, then the matter is settled. Even if Jiang Yao comes looking for trouble later, we can lay the blame on those individuals. Surely, without our direct involvement, she wouldn't really come after us with a violent intent, would she?"

"At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to observe Ye Chen. I always have the feeling that Ye Chen seems to possess hidden moves, otherwise, he wouldn't dare to directly rush to Qingyun Sect like this."

"Even if Ye Chen reveals his hidden moves and isn't killed by your disciples, we will at least have learned of his techniques. Can he really hide them forever? Once he's alone, killing him wouldn't be difficult for you, Brother Zhou..."

"Brother Zhou, please consider my words."

Communicating through consciousness is a method only Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses possess. Nobody else overheard the conversation between Luo Kun and Zhou Yuntian.

However, Ye Chen, looking up, turned his gaze toward the Qingyun Sect's Sect Master Luo Kun and the other seven elders who suddenly stood up for him. His eyes flickered as if he had perceived something.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhou Yuntian sighed heavily, as if he was truly unable to act due to the intervention of the eight great Spirit Sea Realm masters from Qingyun Sect, "Today, I will give face to Brother Luo Kun and not personally take action."

"However, vengeance for my son must be exacted. Jin Xuanlie, come forth and resolve this matter with Ye Chen for me!"

As Zhou Yuntian's voice faded, a youth dressed in the garb of a disciple of the Heavenly Net Sect leaped out from the crowd in the plaza, taking a stand.

Zhou Yuntian then turned his attention to Liu Chan'er: "Little girl, don't say I didn't give due consideration to your 'Taixuan Command.' I won't personally make a move, so if Ye Chen dies at the hands of my disciple, nobody else is to blame!"

Liu Chan'er glanced at Zhou Yuntian, who was blocked in the sky by eight people from the Qingyun Sect, and then at Jin Xuanlie, who had flown out of the crowd, her eyebrows knitted. She asked Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, what should we do? Shall we strike against this person together first?"

Ye Chen smiled at Liu Chan'er and said, "Sister Chan'er, just cover me. Leave this person to me."

With those words, Ye Chen stepped toward Jin Xuanlie.

"Ye Chen!" Liu Chan'er called out anxiously, longing to follow him.

At that moment, Qingyun Sect's Sect Master Luo Kun stepped forward, appearing in front of Liu Chan'er from the void.

Smiling at her, he said, "Since Brother Zhou has refrained from acting directly, this friend should also stay aside and watch for now."

Liu Chan'er looked at Luo Kun, then at Zhou Yuntian, whose gaze was filled with dark clouds in the sky, and finally, she halted.

More than the True Qi Realm disciple, she needed to be wary of any sudden moves from Zhou Yuntian.

"Ye Chen, he's all yours! If things go awry, I'll step in to help you!"

Liu Chan'er gently pinched her left hand with her right hand. On her left wrist, two silver bracelets suddenly started to emanate a faint glow that was difficult to detect.
