"Who’s there? Show yourself!"
Suddenly, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf flew over from a distance, positioning itself between Lin Chen and Yan Ruyu with its back facing Lin Chen, its eyes casting towards a certain direction.
At that mont, an elder clad in green robes was rapidly flying towards them from afar.
Despite idly roaming around, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf was fully aware of the possible developnts between Lin Chen and Yan Ruyu. Though these were rely its own conjectures, it absolutely would not allow anyone to disturb Lin Chen.
Thus, when it sensed soone approaching, it imdiately rushed over.
The newcor was Qin Batian.
As soon as Qin Batian arrived, he saw Lin Chen’s hands placed on Yan Ruyu’s back, and instantly understood everything. He turned around and left.
"It seems I’ve co at an inopportune ti. Continue!" After leaving these words behind, Qin Batian turned and walked away.
Once the Sky Howling Demon Wolf realized the person was Qin Batian, it relaxed. But inside, it sneered. That old fox Qin Batian, having stumbled upon such a scene, would likely find it hard to walk away unscathed.
After all, he had been behind Yan Ruyu and Lin Chen just now.
Both Lin Chen and Yan Ruyu were sowhat flustered at this mont because Qin Batian had misunderstood them.
Their appearance just now indeed looked inappropriate, but in reality, they were simply healing.
Soon, Lin Chen had expelled the toxins from Yan Ruyu’s body, adjusted the clothing on her back, and hastily followed after Qin Batian.
Not long after, Lin Chen caught up with Qin Batian.
"Senior, how did you co in here?" Lin Chen asked Qin Batian with a calm tone.
After all, the competition rules didn’t state that the powerhouses from both sides could enter. How could Xue Yuanba possibly allow Qin Batian to co in?
Qin Batian seed to want to conceal sothing, but such behavior appeared to violate the rules of the contest.
If Red Soul Hall were to use this as a pretext, the Divine Fla Alliance indeed had no grounds for defense.
After hearing this, Qin Batian shook his head and explained the circumstances.
"What exactly happened in the Grey Marsh Plain before?" Qin Batian inquired curiously.
He wouldn’t have rushed in had he not been worried about the safety of the Divine Fla Alliance mbers.
Of course, what he cared about most was still Lin Chen’s safety.
After all, Red Soul Hall’s decision to shift the location of the contest to the Grey Marsh Plain seed rather strange and seemingly targeted Lin Chen.
Lin Chen then recounted the previous events to Qin Batian but concealed the matter about Xiao Changkong’s possession.
Qin Batian was shocked upon listening.
He had not anticipated that all the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall had perished, and that Xue Qing’s Cultivation had risen to Half-step to Creation Realm, matching his own Realm.
In this case, likely no one in the Divine Fla Alliance could contend with Xue Qing.
However, Lin Chen was an exception. Although Lin Chen didn’t explain how Xue Qing t his end, Qin Batian could guess so of it.
"Senior Qin, with you breaking into the plains this ti, Red Soul Hall might use this as an excuse. A great battle between our Divine Fla Alliance and Red Soul Hall seems inevitable," Lin Chen said to Qin Batian with a detached tone.
Actually, even without Senior Qin’s intrusion, Lin Chen felt that Red Soul Hall would not let matters rest.
He always suspected that Red Soul Hall had a greater sche in play.
Afterward, Senior Qin fell silent for a mont, looking in the direction where Yan Ruyu had been, then cast a deep glance at Lin Chen, laden with aning.
Seeing this, Lin Chen felt helpless, thinking to himself that this old man, despite his age, was just as frivolous as the Sky Howling Demon Wolf.
"Senior, nothing actually happened between Senior Sister Ruyu and ; I was just healing her just now," Lin Chen tried to clarify earnestly.
However, after listening, Qin Batian rely smiled and left.
"I understand, I know what you an. I’m going to check on the other disciples of the Divine Fla Alliance," said Qin Batian as he flew off.
Qin Batian felt sowhat emotional inside. His junior, Qin Yushuang, really was disappointing. She knew Lin Chen first yet failed to seize the opportunity, while Yan Ruyu, who t him later, managed to get ahead.
Fortunately, Yan Ruyu was also a disciple of the Formation Sect; this, to so extent, bound Lin Chen to them.
Of course, soone exceptional like Lin Chen wouldn’t be limited to just one woman. In the future, his dominion might not even be contained by the entire Eastern Domain.
Senior Qin had far-reaching vision and had recognized Lin Chen’s value early on, hence taking special care of him even before he beca famous.
After Qin Batian left, Lin Chen returned to Yan Ruyu.
By now, Yan Ruyu had sorted out her attire, but her cheeks were still flushed with redness.
Seeing Lin Chen return, Yan Ruyu hurriedly stepped forward.
"How did it go? Did you explain to the elder ancestor?" Yan Ruyu was anxious, worried that the misunderstanding between her and Lin Chen would spread, affecting her standing in the Formation Sect.
"I explained, but the elder ancestor doesn’t seem to believe , even seed a bit frivolous..." Lin Chen helplessly said.
"What!" Upon hearing this, Yan Ruyu felt a chill in her heart.
"This is all your fault! How am I going to face anyone after this!"
Yan Ruyu said indignantly, starting to weep softly.
Seeing this, Lin Chen imdiately panicked. He wasn’t afraid of powerful Magical Beasts, nor poisonous insects, but he couldn’t stand to see a woman cry.
At this mont, he didn’t know what to do, but then he said sothing factual.
"Don’t worry too much; after all, Senior Qin is an elder and he wouldn’t gossip about this matter everywhere."
After hearing this, Yan Ruyu felt that there was so reason to it and stopped crying.
Then, her eyes lit up, and she glared at Lin Chen angrily.
Upon thinking more carefully, she realized Lin Chen was coaxing her. Senior Qin, being an elder ancestor, how could he possibly spread gossip about such a matter.
