Fang Chen only took ten days to come out of the Origin Secret Realm.
After returning to Origin Gathering Mountain, Fang Chen's expression was a little solemn as he kept thinking about the Star Knight.
"Phew."
After a long time, he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had the Saint Kiln with him. Otherwise, he would most likely suffer heavy losses.
"Star Knight."
Fang Chen murmured.
This was the first time he had seen a real Star Knight. His heart was in turmoil.
Although they had never met before, he had a half-perfect bloodline, which meant that he and the Star Knight were mortal enemies.
Shaking his head hard, Fang Chen stopped thinking about this.
Judging from the current situation, the gap between him and the Star Knight was too big.
"What a pity."
With a flip of his hand, the broken Hidden Star Sword appeared.
He sighed and shook his head helplessly.
Deng deng deng!
At this moment, Madman Li hurried over.
"Senior Brother Fang, you're back?"
In fact, Madman Li had rushed over as soon as he knew that Fang Chen had returned.
Fang Chen nodded. Seeing the latter's abnormal expression, he asked, "You look terrible. What happened?"
Madman Li stammered. At this moment, Fang Chen found a little blood on his sleeve.
"What happened?"
They came from the Nine Domains Branch. After entering the Heaven-Defying Alliance, Madman Li and Princess Tianqin had always been on his side. Seeing the blood on Madman Li's sleeve, Fang Chen was a little angry.
"It's like this …"
Madman Li gritted his teeth and told Fang Chen the whole story.
After hearing this, Fang Chen was furious.
"Yuan Lie?"
"Senior Brother Fang, this Yuan Lie has always looked down on us new disciples because he is a veteran disciple. He often bullies us.
Not long ago, he returned from training outside and took a fancy to Princess Tianqin's appearance. Therefore, he repeatedly came to harass us. After being rejected, he even threatened to get her. "
"Not long ago, he came to find Princess Tianqin and wanted to take her away by force. I tried to stop him but was defeated …"
Madman Li said bitterly.
Once upon a time, he had also been an influential figure in the Nine Great Domains. He was incomparably proud and aloof.
But now, he was so weak that he couldn't even withstand a single blow.
Time had mercilessly shattered the stubbornness in his heart.
"I remember that she has an acquaintance in the Heaven Defying Alliance?" Fang Chen asked doubtfully.
Back then, when he did not have enough Origin Stones, it was Princess Tianqin who borrowed them from others.
"Senior Kuangxin."
Lunatic Li said. After Yuan Lie took Princess Tianqin away, he immediately went to look for Senior Kuangxin.
"He went to look for Yuan Lie …"
Seeing Madman Li's expression, Fang Chen guessed the result.
Senior Brother Kuangxin was no match for Yuan Lie.
"Yuan Lie is too strong. He's already a fifth level Holy Emperor. He's always been outside, trying to break through in life and death battles. Now, he's extremely strong. He can even defeat people who are stronger than him."
Madman Li said, "In the same realm, there are few who can match him. It is said that there are already peak masters who want to take Yuan Lie as their personal disciple."
Fang Chen nodded. "Leave this matter to me. Where is Yuan Lie?"
"Yuan Lie is at Giant Fire Peak."
"You stay here. I'll go to Giant Fire Peak."
Seeing Fang Chen leave, Madman Li hurriedly followed behind. When the two arrived at the foot of Gathering Origin Mountain, a person happened to walk towards them.
"Senior Brother Kuangxin."
Madman Li greeted.
Fang Chen looked at the person who came, and the latter was also seriously sizing him up.
"You're Fang Chen?"
Among the new disciples, who else could earn Madman Li's respect other than the chief disciple?
It was also Kuangxin's first time seeing Fang Chen, and he felt that he was very mysterious.
"You're going to Giant Fire Peak?"
Kuangxin said, "I don't know what secret technique Yuan Lie has cultivated. His battle strength is extremely strong, and he's almost invincible in the same realm.
I fought with him not long ago, and I couldn't take a single blow from him and was defeated. "
Kuangxin blushed with shame, but he still warned Fang Chen.
"You …"
"I won't sit by and do nothing about this matter." Fang Chen made his attitude clear.
"But."
"No buts. Since Yuan Lie dared to touch my people, he should be prepared to pay the price." With that, Fang Chen left.
Kuangxin and Madman Li were left looking at each other.
Giant Fire Peak was not too far from Yunluo Peak, and Fang Chen soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.
He looked up, leaped, and quickly climbed up the mountain. When he reached the peak, he was stopped by the guard.
"I'm Fang Chen."
Fang Chen directly stated his identity.
"Hmm?
You're the chief disciple of the new disciples? "
Obviously, the guard had heard of his name. His expression changed, and then he said, "The Peak Master said that you can enter and leave Giant Fire Peak freely."
Fang Chen was stunned, and then he smiled.
Back then, when his origin star shattered, the Giant Fire Peak Master wanted to stand up for him and even wanted to destroy the No-Demon Cult. He was still very grateful to the Giant Fire Peak Master.
Giant Fire Peak, Purple Bamboo Courtyard.
Yuan Lie was holding a banquet with a few of his fellow disciples.
"Hahaha, Senior Brother Yuan Lie, you're really amazing. You went out to train for a few years, and now you're back," the white-robed martial artist said as he raised his wine cup.
"Senior Brother Yuan Lie has unparalleled potential. He was the chief disciple of our batch of new disciples," the purple-robed woman said.
"Come, let's toast to Senior Brother Yuan Lie."
Everyone raised their cups to celebrate Yuan Lie's return.
On a stone bench not far away, Princess Tianqin, who was dressed in green, sat quietly. The power in her body was sealed, and she was like an ordinary person.
Her eyes were filled with endless anger.
After three rounds of wine, a disciple talked about Princess Tianqin.
"Senior Brother Yuan Lie really has good luck with women."
"There's such a beautiful woman among the new disciples. She's lucky to be chosen by Senior Brother Yuan Lie."
"But I heard that this woman seems to be related to Kuangxin …"
"Hmph, who does Kuangxin think he is?"
Everyone chimed in one after another.
Yuan Lie held his wine cup and looked at Princess Tianqin from the corner of his eye.
The latter was filled with stubbornness. The more stubborn she was, the more he wanted to conquer her.
"Such an unyielding character is what I like the most." Yuan Lie sighed in his heart.
Boom!
Just as everyone was enjoying themselves, the gate of the Purple Bamboo Academy was suddenly blasted open. Dust and debris flew everywhere.
The sudden turn of events stunned everyone.
"Who is it?"
The white-robed martial artist clenched his fist, and the wine cup in his hand shattered. He jumped up and stared at the door of Purple Bamboo Garden angrily.
Amidst the dust, a tall and straight figure slowly walked over.
"It's you?"
"Fang Chen, are you courting death?"
Purple Bamboo Garden was Yuan Lie's residence, and it symbolized the status of a direct disciple. But now, Fang Chen had blasted the door open.
Yuan Lie was furious, and so were the others.
A mere new disciple dared to be so arrogant.
Fang Chen ignored everyone. He glanced at Princess Tianqin, and after confirming that she was fine, he turned to look at Yuan Lie.
"Let her go."
His voice was soft, but it contained a strong anger.
"Fang Chen, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are the new First Disciple."
The white-robed disciple said angrily.
"Today, let me teach you a lesson."
Boom!
The white-robed disciple attacked. He was a Fourth Rank Peak Saint Emperor, and his fist skills had reached perfection. Once he attacked, he formed four terrifying fist shadows and blasted towards Fang Chen from four different directions.
Fang Chen did not dodge, and his eyes were filled with mockery.
"Too weak."
One punch, just one punch, and the white-robed disciple was sent flying.
Silence. The entire Purple Bamboo Garden was dead silent.
All the disciples stared at the white-robed disciple on the ground, dumbfounded.
"Junior Brother Bai."
The purple-robed lady exclaimed after recovering from her shock.
"Fang Chen, you are too much."
The other disciples said angrily.
"Let her go."
There were no superfluous words, only two heavy words.
His gaze was fixed on Yuan Lie.
Crack!
The wine cup in Yuan Lie's hand shattered. He clapped his hands lightly and smiled wickedly. "When I returned to the Sect, I heard that there was a monster among this batch of new disciples. You were able to reassemble your Origin Star after it shattered. I did not believe it at first, but now it seems that you are much more powerful than the rumors say."
Defeating the white-robed disciple with one punch was enough to show that Fang Chen's combat strength had reached the Fifth Rank Saint Emperor.
However, this was not enough for Yuan Lie to take him seriously.
"Let her go."
A cold voice reverberated above the Purple Bamboo Garden.
"Who gave you the guts to break into the Giant Fire Peak and destroy the gate of the Purple Bamboo Garden?"
"If you don't give Senior Brother Yuan Lie an explanation today, don't even think about walking out of the Purple Bamboo Garden."
Everyone present was a senior disciple. Although they were not as strong as Yuan Lie, they were close.
How could they not be angry after being humiliated by a new disciple?
"As a senior disciple, how could you do such a shameless thing?"
Fang Chen said. "She is just a new disciple who wants to cultivate in peace, but you kidnapped her because you are strong?"
"Hmph, what do you know?
It is her fortune that Senior Brother Yuan Lie has taken a liking to her.
Bringing her to the Purple Bamboo Garden is to let her cultivate in a better environment. "The purple-robed woman shrieked.
"That's right, Senior Brother Yuan Lie has good intentions. Not only do you not appreciate it, you even came to the Purple Bamboo Garden to cause trouble. Do you really think that Senior Brother Yuan Lie is a pushover?"
Fang Chen laughed.
There were actually such shameless people in the world.
They did not even have the most basic sense of shame.
There was nothing to say to such people.
"She did not do it willingly."
Although he was furious, Fang Chen resisted the urge to attack.
"So what?
The strong are respected. Senior Brother Yuan Lie is strong enough. Why can't he become her Dao companion? "
In their eyes, the strong could do whatever they wanted.
They would never think that what they were doing was wrong.
Yuan Lie looked at Fang Chen mockingly, "Princess Tianqin and I like each other. We will choose a date to hold the ceremony for becoming Dao Companions. I can understand that you are angry because of a beauty. If you leave now, I, Yuan Lie, will pretend that nothing happened today.
Yuan Lie said it in a dignified manner. Fang Chen was even angrier.
"Do you think that the strong can do whatever they want?"
Yuan Lie did not reply, but his expression had already expressed it very clearly.
He looked at Fang Chen coldly, as if he was looking at a clown.
"If I am strong enough, I can kidnap you to Origin Gathering Mountain and make you my servants. Is that okay?" Fang Chen's heart calmed down.
