Jian Chen did not stand up on the flying vehicle. He studied the group of people who surrounded his aircraft calmly.
Jian Chen had never seen any of them before, including the Overgod. Moreover, their attires were basically all the same, so they were clearly an organisation that originated from beyond the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian.
âWe are people from the Dongâan province of the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian. This is the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, sir Jian Chen!â
Before Jian Chen could say anything, one of the Gods seated towards the back spoke up. His gaze towards Jian Chen was filled with uncontainable admiration.
All the people in the surroundings became surprised when they heard the Godâs words. At that moment, all of them stared at Jian Chen, who sat leisurely at the front.
âYouâre the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Jian Chen?â The eyes of the Overgod shone as he studied Jian Chen seriously as if he wanted to understand him completely.
All of them were familiar with the name Jian Chen, patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan.
In reality, the most popular conversation topic among the Overgods was not the three armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult or the upcoming war. Instead, it was about the Overgod that had suddenly shown up in the backwater divine kingdom.
This person was naturally Jian Chen.
Jian Chen had already become renowned since his battle against the protectors of the Earth Spirit sect. He had even been labelled as someone who possessed the strength to make it onto the Three Thousand Overgodsâ Plaque.
The three thousand names on the Overgodsâ Plaque did not come from a single region or plane. Instead, it came from across the entire Saintsâ World.
Just how many Overgods were there across the forty-nine great planes and the eighty-one great planets? To overcome such a tremendous number of people and make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque as one of the three thousand most powerful Overgods in the entire Saintsâ World was a huge honor.
As a result, Jian Chenâs name naturally spread extremely quickly among the Overgods, attracting the attention of many people.
âWhoâs the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Jian Chen?â
At this moment, a lazy voice rang out.
A young man who seemed around twenty years old flew up from below. With his arms across, he stood directly in front of the flying vehicle that belonged to the Tian Yuan clan. He studied Jian Chen in a somewhat flippant manner.
Moreover, he was clearly standing slightly higher than the flying vehicle, so it seemed like the young man was looking down on the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan.
âGreetings, senior Luo!â
âGreetings, protector Luo!â
The arrival of the young man immediately caused the people around Jian Chen to bow politely.
Protector Luo nodded slightly. With a wave of his hand, he silenced everyone. However, his gaze remained fixed on Jian Chen for the entire time while the corner of his lips curled into an unserious smile. He seemed to be interested.
âAre you the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan who has cropped up recently?â Protector Luo said while he looked at Jian Chen with a sliver of arrogance on his face.
âThatâs right, Iâm the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Jian Chen. Sir, please give way,â Jian Chen clasped his fist towards protector Luo. He did not speak particularly politely or rudely.
A sliver of cold light flashed through protector Luoâs eyes. His smile remained the same, and his expression did not change. He said, âIn the recent days, your name has been as prominent as thunder. Iâve heard about you so much that my ears are going to become calloused, if thatâs possible. Many people have rumored that the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan is powerful enough to make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque. I am Luo Yunfei from the Sword Sect of the Azure Clothed of the Taiâa Empire. I hope I can witness the patriarchâs skills. I hope the patriarch is willing.â
Luo Yunfei backed off slightly, and an extremely thin sword shaped like a willow leaf appeared in his hand.
Luo Yunfeiâs presence suddenly changed now that he had the sword in his hand. He gave off a powerful and sharp sword intent.
The power of the Laws of the Sword revolved around him, forming a flock of tiny sword Qi that rapidly revolved around him.
Jian Chen raised an eyebrow. He could not help but properly study Luo Yunfei.
This was the first time he had come across an Overgod who used the Laws of the Sword apart from Ling Hougong, and this person had even reached late Overgod.
As soon as Luo Yunfeiâs presence expanded, it alarmed countless people below.
Immediately, many Overgods from various organisations flew up from below. Even a few Godkings had started paying attention to the situation.
âEveryone, didnât you want to see Jian Chen? This is the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan from the Dongâan province of our Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, Jian Chen!â The Grand Imperial Protector had gathered with all the Overgods in a grand divine hall. He smiled as he said these words to everyone.
The Godkings around had become interested in the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, who was said to possess the strength to make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque long ago. They all became interested when they heard the Grand Imperial Protectorâs words, and they sent over the presences of their souls.
âHaha, he really is worthy of being someone who can make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque. Even though Jian Chen has not attempted it yet, so his name isnât on there, just his presence itself is quite extraordinary,â an elder from the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds praised.
The faces of the three elders from the Earth Spirit sect near him darkened. They became twisted.
By now, the surroundings of Jian Chenâs aircraft could be described as completely crowded. A large number of Overgods and Gods had gathered there. They all studied Jian Chen with a strange light in their eyes. There was curiosity, doubt, suspicion, disapproval, and so on.
âSo this is the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Jian Chen, the person known to be able to make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque.â
âWhat person known to be able to make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque? Thatâs just what people who donât know anything about the Overgodsâ Plaque have said. With the entire Saintsâ World in perspective, there is only a total of three thousand people that can make it on there. Every single one of them is a great prodigy. I donât believe a backwater place like the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian can produce someone like that.â
âYes and no. Weâll know once he fights Luo Yunfei of the Sword Sect of the Azure Clothed. We have all witnessed Luo Yunfeiâs strength. Although heâs not enough to make it onto the Overgodsâ Plaque, there are not many people who can defeat him among Overgods.â
âThatâs right. Senior Luo is the most powerful. Heâs the strongest Overgod in our Sword Sect of the Azure Clothed. Many elders have praised him. Letâs wait and see. The patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan definitely isnât his opponent.â
Everyone discussed with each other softly. A few female disciples of the Sword Sect of the Azure Clothed waved their fists as their eyes shone. They adored their senior as they cheered him on.
However, Jian Chen did not move at all. He stared at Luo Yunfei calmly and said, âIâve come here to repel the Empyrean Demon Cult, not to spar with you.â Now that Jian Chenâs Chaotic Body had broken through, he was on a completely different level compared to Luo Yunfei. He really was not interested in sparring with Luo Yunfei at all.
