Chapter 689

“I came to eat, not to help you throw away trash.”

Su Yanjin shook his head, not even glancing at the inferior immortal artifact before leaving.

Master Mu watched this with a cold smile, putting the inferior immortal artifact back into his sleeve and said angrily, “Hmph, he doesn’t even take such a treasure and pretends to be noble.”

Master Mu sneered, thinking that since Su Yanjin didn’t take it, he could save the treasure for himself.

At that moment,

Mu Qianqian returned with soup and brought it to the main hall.

But she found that Su Yanjin was gone.

“Father, where is the benefactor?”

Mu Qianqian looked puzzled at Master Mu and asked.

“Oh, that benefactor said you’ve repaid the favor, so there’s no need to interact anymore.”

Master Mu said with a casual smile, taking the soup and drinking it himself.

“Is that so?”

Mu Qianqian felt a sense of unease hearing her father’s words, her brows furrowed, feeling something was off.

“No, I need to ask him.”

Mu Qianqian felt something was not right and wanted to catch up with Su Yanjin to clarify.

However, her father waved his hand and instantly stopped her.

“Don’t think about this anymore.”

“That Earth Immortal is not worthy of you; I’ve already sent him away.”

“Qianqian, I did this for your own good; otherwise, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life…”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As he spoke, he used a formation to lock Mu Qianqian in the main hall and left on his own.

…

Yesterday’s events at the Mu residence, Su Yanjin didn’t care about at all.

“Little buddy, what did you eat at the Mu residence yesterday?”

“Why didn’t that girl come today?”

The old soldier asked with concern.

Su Yanjin remained silent, standing guard on his own.

The old soldier chuckled awkwardly, knowing Su Yanjin’s personality, so he didn’t say anything more.

In the Starry Palace Hall,

Vice-Chancellor Jiang Cheng was reporting to Xiang Tiannan about the news of that expert.

“You mean, that expert was just passing by?”

Xiang Tiannan frowned, looking puzzled at Jiang Cheng.

“Yes, that’s the only explanation now.” Jiang Cheng nodded. After days of investigation, he found no clues at all.

The most likely explanation was that the expert was just passing by.

“Ah.”

Xiang Tiannan sighed helplessly, accepting the result and waved his hand, signaling Jiang Cheng to leave.

Jiang Cheng respectfully withdrew from the hall, also feeling bitter.

Unable to do anything else, Jiang Cheng decided to patrol the city gate again, muttering about the situation.

“What a pity, the expert was just passing by. Otherwise, the Star Immortal State could have gained a powerful ally.”

Jiang Cheng sighed helplessly.

However, as he walked out of Gate Nine, several urgent voices and powerful auras approached.

“Vice-Chancellor, stop them! These people are from the Great Sun Immortal Continent, hiding outside the city, preparing to sneak into our main city. We discovered and injured them, but now they know they can’t escape and want to self-destruct to destroy the gate.” ℞

“Stop them!”

The pursuing experts shouted frantically.

What?

Such a thing?

Hearing this, Vice-Chancellor Jiang Cheng was greatly shocked.

Instantly, Jiang Cheng acted, mobilizing the true essence around him. The imposing aura of a Sun and Moon Immortal Realm expert enveloped the few Star Immortal Realm experts from the Great Sun Immortal Continent.

“I’ll hold them off!”

Jiang Cheng shouted.

He understood the severe consequences if these people succeeded.

It would directly damage the main city’s formation.

Without the formation’s protection, the risks for the main city would increase infinitely.

However, sensing Jiang Cheng’s obstruction, one of the Star Immortal Realm experts charged straight at him.

“Boom!”

A loud explosion, the person instantly self-destructed.

A Star Immortal Realm self-destruction was no small matter. Jiang Cheng, who was at the early stage of the Sun and Moon Immortal Realm and not very stable, hadn’t had time to dodge and was blown away by the explosion’s force.

At the same time, the remaining force caused the ground in front of the gate to crack, with countless deep, bottomless fissures spreading.

Taking advantage of this gap, the remaining few Star Immortal Realm experts charged towards the gate.

Their target was precisely the Gate Nine in the south.

“Damn it!”

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng’s eyes were filled with rage.

He tried to get up and chase after them but found that he had suffered a serious injury from the explosion’s force.

Combined with the distance, it was impossible for him to stop them before they reached Gate Nine.
