Chapter 2001

The six of them retreated so decisively. The spectators were inevitably disappointed, but they could see how intimidating Zi Chen was from this incident.

"What a bunch of unreliable trash. If they had acted decisively, even if they couldn't have killed Zi Chen, they could have severely injured him. What are they afraid of? Zi Chen definitely won't have the chance to return alive," Erikman said with a cold snort as he looked at the six people in the distance.

"Interesting."

Ji Wei didn't pay any attention to the six people who had left. His eyes were fixed on Qing Feng, who was standing behind Zi Chen. Although he hadn't seen what had happened, he could tell that Qing Feng hadn't made a move. From Ji Wei's point of view, it could be seen that Qing Feng was afraid of the six people joining forces and didn't dare to fight against them.

But was that really the case?

Only Qing Feng knew the answer to that question.

Looking at the six people who had left, Zi Chen turned around and looked down at Gao Wei. He said indifferently, "It's time for us to set off."

"Lei Dong's injuries are almost healed. We will leave soon." Ya Wei smiled and nodded at Zi Chen. He then turned and walked back to his room.

Hei Long and An Peng nodded at Zi Chen and went back to their rooms.

After that, the others left.

Zi Chen returned to his room, and Qing Feng followed him. After finding a chair to sit down, Qing Feng said, "It looks like this matter won't go smoothly."

Zi Chen knew that Qing Feng was talking about finding a shield. He said, "We'll deal with whatever comes our way."

"You are right. You are a thorn in their side. If even you aren't afraid, of course I won't be." Qing Feng laughed.

"You know this is dangerous. Why are you still following me?" Zi Chen looked back at Qing Feng and stared him in the eyes.

"Didn't I say it before? I am Master Qing Feng. This time, I came out to make a name for myself. I want to do something spectacular."

"Spectacular. Although I don't know where that place is, it should be a mysterious place. Only ten people went there, and they might die if they made a mistake. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with 'spectacular'."

"That might not necessarily be the case. If I were to obtain the shield there and then kill Yan Wei and the other three Heaven-Defying Individuals, when I come out, I will definitely become famous."

Qing Feng smiled proudly as if his dream had come true.

Although the other party was joking around, his intention to leave was very firm. Zi Chen shook his head and did not ask any more questions.

These six strongest existences would obviously not be used again, and there was no one else who could suppress Zi Chen and Qing Feng, so Zi Chen expected that Yan Wei would not delay any longer.

Sure enough, three days later, an outsider came to the inn and told Zi Chen that Shao Wei wanted to see him.

"After we leave, you should leave too," Zi Chen said to Black Tiger as he stood up.

"Don't worry, I won't die." Black Tiger replied calmly.

Nodding his head to Black Tiger, Zi Chen told Yi Qian to take care. He then left the room with Qing Feng and headed towards Yan Wei's place.

"Hehe … hehe …!"

Along the way, Qing Feng could not stop chuckling. He no longer had that cold look on his face. In fact, he looked a little silly.

"What are you laughing about?" Zi Chen looked at him suspiciously.

"It's finally going to be spectacular. I'm a little excited." With that, Qing Feng chuckled once more.

"You're not excited. You're obviously nervous. And … there's fear in your heart." Zi Chen stared into Qing Feng's eyes. This guy was behaving way too strangely today.

Chuckling once more, Qing Feng pursed his lips and praised, "Your senses are sharp indeed. Indeed, I'm a little nervous, and a little scared."

"If you're scared, you can choose not to go. No one will force you."

Qing Feng shook his head, "I'm not afraid of the journey ahead. It's just that I suddenly thought of something an old man said."

"What kind of words could scare you?" Zi Chen was curious.

"That old man told me that this time, I'll be in trouble. If I don't do well, I might die. Even though I don't believe that anyone can foresee my fate, but this time, I'm going to travel with so many powerful people. I can't help but feel nervous. Suddenly, I thought of that old man's words and felt a little scared. Now, I really want to slap that old man to death." Qing Feng gritted his teeth.

Zi Chen patted Qing Feng's shoulder and said, "If you know in advance that there's going to be danger, just be careful. Also, if there's any danger, stay close to me. If there's any infighting, stay far away from me. I think this way, your chances of survival will be higher, and you won't die so easily."

With that, Zi Chen walked away, leaving Qing Feng standing there in a daze.

"Whether it's true or not, for an outsider to say such words, this really is the legendary Zi Chen. The rumors … are really f * cking reliable."

Staring at Zi Chen in a daze, Qing Feng cursed fiercely in his heart. He shook his head fiercely, throwing away all distracting thoughts, and followed Zi Chen's footsteps.

This time, he didn't laugh foolishly, but still put on a very cold expression.

When they arrived at Qi Wei's residence, everyone had already gathered. With the arrival of the two, everyone's eyes fell on them. Except for one cold gaze, everyone else's expression was quite friendly.

"Congratulations on your recovery."

Zi Chen nodded at the crowd. After which, he met Lei Dong's cold gaze. He smiled and said, "Let me thank you again."

Lei Dong's cold expression became gloomy. Of course, he understood Zi Chen's meaning. He was obviously going to steal his Heavenly Thunder Wings. However, thinking of the promise he made before, he didn't argue with Zi Chen this time. He only glanced at Zi Chen with resentment, and then a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Alright, since everyone is here, let's set off."

As soon as Qi Wei finished speaking, Lei Dong coldly said, "Wait, in case someone has bad intentions, I think before we go, we should take a look at the five fragments."

Although Lei Dong didn't mention any names, his eyes were looking at Zi Chen.

Hei Long and An Peng didn't say anything. The two of them didn't have any fragments, and their relationship with Qi Wei wasn't very close, so naturally, they didn't say anything.

"I was thinking the same."

Zi Chen smiled faintly, and immediately, a fragment appeared in his hand. A powerful aura was emitted from the fragment.

He wasn't worried that this was a trap, because if Qi Wei wanted to make a move, he wouldn't have waited until today.

Looking at the fragment in Zi Chen's hand, a cold light flashed in Lei Dong's eyes.

Qi Wei nodded, and then took out his fragment. The other three Heaven-Defying Warriors also took out their fragments.

The four fragments were of different sizes. Relatively speaking, Zi Chen's fragment was bigger, and the surface of their bodies was surging with powerful auras.

"Buzz."

As the five fragments appeared, there was an energy fluctuation in the surroundings, and a powerful force was emitted from the fragments. The fragments in everyone's hands almost fell out of their hands.

As everyone took out their fragments, Zi Chen could clearly feel some kind of connection between the fragments. It was just like the Heavenly Thunder Wings, there wouldn't be any connection if it didn't appear.

Zi Chen finally understood why he couldn't sense the other fragments when he was holding the fragment.

"Okay, let's go."

Qi Wei was the first to keep the fragment, and said again.

The other three also put away their fragments.

As the four fragments disappeared, the fragment in Zi Chen's hand stopped trembling and returned to normal, and was put away by Zi Chen.

The five fragments had appeared, which proved that Qi Wei wasn't lying. The others also looked excited.

Regardless of whether they could get the complete shield in the end, at least they had a 65% chance.

Maybe … it was more than 65%.

After walking out of the room, everyone was preparing to leave the city. Zi Chen once again felt a resentful gaze from afar.

As he turned his head, Zi Chen saw the source of the resentful gaze. It was Kun Te.

The former owner of the fragment in his hand.

Seeing Zi Chen's gaze, the resentment in Kun Te's eyes grew stronger. He was originally one of the ten people, but unfortunately, he was the one who made Zi Chen.

Seeing Zi Chen's gaze, Kun Te's mouth moved silently, as if he was saying, "You will never come back."

Zi Chen smiled and replied silently, "If I come back, I will kill you first."

Looking at Zi Chen's disappearing figure, Yi Qian said softly, "You must come back alive."

Beside Yi Qian, Black Tiger said, "This kid's life has always been tough. Maybe he can really create a miracle. I'm going to leave. Are you coming?"

"Yes." Yi Qian looked at Black Tiger in surprise. She didn't understand why he didn't wait for Zi Chen here.

"If I don't leave, I will be torn apart by those heaven-defying experts. As for whether Zi Chen can come back alive, that's his problem. I don't want to be implicated."

After saying that, Black Tiger turned around and entered the room. When he walked out, he had turned into a strong man.

Yi Qian continued to stare at him until his figure completely disappeared.

Zi Chen had already left the city. Then, some people came and surrounded the Flying Feather Inn.

Yi Qian stood above and watched. After a while, she guessed that Zi Chen had already gone far. These people broke into the inn, and there were a few heaven-defying experts among them.

Black Tiger had already left. They were destined to find nothing. After a fruitless search, a heaven-defying expert came in front of Yi Qian and asked politely, "I wonder if Miss Yi Qian has seen that black tiger?"

Yi Qian nodded and said, "He left."

"Left? When did he leave? Why didn't our people notice?" The heaven-defying expert was shocked.

"He left two days ago."

After saying that, Yi Qian jumped out of the room and flew out of Blue Feather City. The direction she went was the opposite of the direction Zi Chen and the others had left.

Zi Chen had left. Black Tiger had left. There was no point for her to stay here.

Now, she just had to wait … for good news or bad news.

The heaven-defying expert looked at Yi Qian until she disappeared. Then, he reluctantly looked away and cursed, "You bastard ran fast. Humph, this time Zi Chen will definitely die. Let's see who can protect this world."
