Chapter 4001

Thinking back to the battle back then, when Zi Chen was exhausted, Alba, who had been tailing him, wanted to devour Zi Chen's power for himself, but he didn't succeed.

It was also at that time that Zi Chen used his revival technique. To him, it was a flame of life force that could stimulate his potential and restore his body. However, when it fell on Alba, it became a poisonous flame that burned away his soul power and life force.

At that time, there was also a power that appeared from Alba's body. It followed the burning flames and entered Zi Chen's body.

At that time, Zi Chen wasn't very conscious, so he didn't sense it carefully. Now, it seemed that what happened back then wasn't an illusion. It really happened.

Not only did Alba not devour his power, but his power was devoured by him.

However, whether it was devouring, backlash, or Alba actively pouring his soul power into his body as a last resort, Zi Chen didn't know.

He started to use his cultivation method in an attempt to refine this power that seemed to still have some consciousness.

As Zi Chen mobilized his soul power, the power from Alba was being refined by Zi Chen bit by bit. Then, it became pure soul power that replenished his own soul power.

His soul power grew a little stronger, but Zi Chen still didn't know what caused it.

It was just that it wasn't realistic to refine the power that Alba left behind in a short time, so Zi Chen still needed some time to fully recover.

The next day, the first person to arrive at Zi Chen's residence was Lin Lin. This surprised Zi Chen a little. He deliberately teased her, "I couldn't tell that you were so concerned about me."

"I'm concerned about your death!"

Lin Lin glared fiercely at Zi Chen. "I'm here to collect your corpse. It seems very unlucky. May I know when you'll die?"

This little girl is really vicious, but Zi Chen didn't mind. He said, "How's the situation now?"

"What's the situation?"

"Death Canyon, how's the battle between the Soul Hunters and the Soul Devourers?"

Lin Lin said, "We are the Sea Tribe. Your life and death battle has nothing to do with us. We never interfere in any battle and maintain absolute neutrality!"

"Even if you don't participate in the battle, you should have some information, right?

What's the current situation on the battlefield? "Zi Chen asked again.

"No comment!"

Lin Lin raised her head and said proudly, "This is a secret. Why should I tell a soul hunter like you?"

"After the last great battle, perhaps because both sides suffered heavy losses, they are currently in a state of truce. Very few people have entered the canyon, and they don't even have the necessary probing."

Lin Yu walked in from the door. She already knew about this news, and it wasn't important, so it wasn't a big deal to tell Zi Chen.

Although the Sea Race maintained absolute neutrality, they still collected all kinds of information about the two races.

For example, news of Zi Chen's incident had long spread among the upper echelons of the Sea Tribe. He had single-handedly killed nine of the Top Ten Talents of the Soul Devourer Clan. Just this battle prowess alone was enough to shock them.

Now, the Soul-devouring Clan still had not given up on looking for Zi Chen. They wanted to see him, dead or alive. Some of the Soul-devouring Clan had even tried to contact the Sea Tribe to get some information from them, but to no avail.

The Sea Tribe's neutrality wasn't just for show.

Lin Lin was a little dissatisfied with her sister for telling Zi Chen everything so easily.

A few days later, Zi Chen started to move around. Lin Yu took him on a tour of the Imperial City. The level of luxury here was an eye-opener for Zi Chen.

His strengthened soul power took the lead, and the speed at which he refined Alba's soul power was significantly faster.

"Princess Lin Yu is very beautiful. She's not arrogant at all. She even smiled at me."

Polly looked at her friends in front of her and said excitedly, "That soul hunter is the princess' friend. I saw the princess trying her best to save him."

A young man whispered, "Polly, is this the reason why you left your post without permission?"

Polly said unhappily, "That's not the reason. Xiao Guang, don't you believe me?"

"Of course, I believe you." The young man named Xiao Guang nodded quickly. "I believe everything you say."

Polly looked at the others. They were all young men and women, and they nodded as well. Even though they had heard this story dozens of times, they were already sick of it.

"That's more like it.

The vice-commander knows about this too. That's why I wasn't punished. "

Polly was very satisfied with everyone's performance.

"Polly, you're lying again. What do you mean by entering the Imperial City? What a joke!"

A mocking voice came from behind and interrupted the conversation between Polly and her friends.

Polly turned around and saw a woman from the Oceanic Tribe walking forward. Behind her were three sisters.

"Sharian, I'm not lying. What I said is the truth!"

Polly said unhappily, "I really went to the Imperial City last time. I even saw Princess Lin Yu!"

The woman named Sharian had a mocking look in her eyes. "Went to the Imperial City?

Do you know that to enter the Imperial City, you must have a pass issued by the Imperial City? If you want to see the princess, you must have the noblest Imperial Pass.

Which of these two do you have? "

Polly was momentarily speechless. She did not have either of these.

Sharian continued, "Aren't you just trying to get away with your dereliction of duty?

Why find such a lousy excuse? "

"This isn't an excuse. It's the truth. I saved Princess Lin Yu's friend!"

Polly said anxiously, "I saw them outside the Imperial City. Other than Princess Lin Yu, Prince Fei was there too. I didn't need anything to see them!"

"Haha, what a ridiculous excuse. If you saved Princess Lin Yu's friend, it would be a great achievement. Why didn't the princess let you stay in the Imperial City?"

Polly recalled what had happened a few days ago. When she entered the Imperial City and was outside Princess Lin Yu's room, Prince Fei gave her a choice and asked if she was willing to stay. She hesitated then.

Of course, that might not be a choice at all.

"You said you saw Prince Fei. What right do a lowly person like you have to stand beside Prince Fei?" Sharian snorted coldly. "Now, just wait for the punishment of the Enforcers."

Prince Fey was extremely popular in the Golden Scaled Tribe, and was deeply loved by many girls. Every time he went out, there would be many rumors, such as how kind and humorous the prince was. Polly used to be like the others, silently admiring this prince in her heart. However, after seeing the prince last time, to be honest, she did not have a good impression of him.

In the past few days, Polly had not told anyone that she had seen Prince Fei. Even in the exaggerated versions of the story, he was not mentioned.

She only said it in a moment of desperation today.

Everyone's expression changed. At this moment, they did not know if it was true or not because Prince Fei was mentioned in Polly's story.

Sharian said indifferently, "People like you don't deserve to see Prince Fei. I have already reported your fabricated excuse to the Enforcers. I believe you will be punished."

At this moment, members of the Enforcers came from afar. The leader of the Enforcers was the captain of the Enforcers. When he arrived, he looked at Polly. "Polly, you haven't given a clear explanation for leaving your post last time. Come back with me now."

Polly looked at the captain and said, "When I came back last time, I already explained to Deputy Commander Parson. The Commander already knows about this. At that time, I was saving someone. The Commander did not convict me."

The man said indifferently, "You didn't give a detailed explanation. Moreover, we suspect that you are lying and deceiving the Commander. Come with us now."

"Polly never lies. Everything she says is true."

Behind Polly, the young man called Little Light from before walked out. "We all believe that she left the Monitored Ground to save someone!

Moreover, she is a friend who saved the Princess! "

"Hmph!

Whether it is the truth or not, we will know everything when we return. "

The man waved his hand indifferently and said, "Take her away."

A beam of energy flew out from the man's sleeve and landed on Little Light, sending him flying.

After landing, Little Light vomited blood. He was injured.

"What right do you have to hit people?" Little Light said angrily.

The man's eyes suddenly turned cold. "You dare to sneak attack the law enforcement team. Do you want to rebel?"

Everyone's expression changed. You were the one who attacked first. You are framing us.

Sharlyn stood at the side, her eyes cold. "How can such a person be worthy of Prince Tiffy?"

In the Golden Scaled Tribe, the law enforcement team was second only to the royal family. No one dared to defy them.

If they were really enforcing the law impartially, no one would have any objections. However, the man in front of them was Sharlyn's brother. Sharlyn and Polly were not on good terms. Once she was taken away by the other party, it would be difficult to come back.

In these years, there were many cases where the law enforcement team used their power to suppress others.

Little Light walked forward, his eyes firm. "I believe Polly's words. She never lies!"

A cold smile appeared at the corner of the man's mouth. "The law enforcement team is handling the case. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy!"

Little Light stopped, not daring to move forward. However, his eyes were fixed on the man.

His other companions also did not dare to move.

"Take her away for interrogation!"

The man waved his hand indifferently. Several members of the law enforcement team walked towards Polly.

Polly stood there, her face pale. She did not expect that the law enforcement team would come to settle accounts after such a long time.

Seeing that Polly was about to be taken away, the others were anxious. However, after meeting the cold eyes of the law enforcement team, no one dared to disobey.

If the law enforcement team was handling a case, they would really dare to kill!

At this moment, a voice sounded. "You are Polly?"

This voice sounded very suddenly, but it was very clear.

A black-robed Soul Hunter male suddenly appeared here.

When Polly saw the man, she was stunned at first. She felt that he was familiar. Then, her eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "It's you. You are awake?"

"Yes, this is all thanks to you."

Zi Chen nodded and smiled. He asked, "What's going on?"

"They are members of the law enforcement team. They want to take Polly away. They say that she left her post last time," the injured Little Light said.

Zi Chen turned to look at the man and asked, "What's going on?"

"A Soul Hunter dares to come to the Sea Tribe's territory. Take him down!"

Unexpectedly, the man did not respond to Zi Chen at all. Instead, he planned to attack.

Zi Chen was not angry. Something appeared in his hand and he threw it at the man.

The man caught it subconsciously. Then, a cold light flashed in his eyes. "How dare you sneak attack the law enforcement team. You are courting death!

Men, take him and Polly, who colluded with the Soul Hunters to endanger the safety of the Sea Tribe. Kill anyone who dares to resist! "

Zi Chen said indifferently, "Open your eyes wide and look at what is in your hand before you accuse me."

The man opened his hand and saw a token.

As the captain of the law enforcement team, he naturally recognized this token. Even if he did not, the word "Emperor" on it was incomparably clear.

His expression changed drastically as he looked at Zi Chen in disbelief.

"Greetings, Sir!"
