Martial Master

After leaving Tian Gong, Qin Chen returned to the State Master’s Mansion. On the way, he had already reviewed all the jade slips given to him by Ao Lie and understood the current situation of the Chen Di Pavilion.

After some disputes, Ao Lie had finalized the situation of Yunzhou with several major states, including Yanzhou, Lingzhou, Wuzhou, and Xuzhou, as well as the Tianxu Family, Tianlong Temple, and Tianhe True Sect.

Now, Yunzhou was completely in the hands of the Chen Di Pavilion, and these major forces would help stabilize the various powers in Yunzhou for the Chen Di Pavilion. Additionally, the Chen Di Pavilion could establish branches in several major states. Of course, some cities bordering these major states were also secretly under their control.

Currently, the Chen Di Pavilion had become a community of interest with several major states and forces.

Although Qin Chen knew that this community of interest might be temporary, and with the passage of time, conflicts and contradictions would surely arise, he didn’t care. As long as he could continue to improve, everything else was insignificant.

After handing over the matters of Yunzhou to Ao Lie, Qin Chen, under the concerned gaze of Ao Qingling and Qin Tingting, directly went to Wan Gu Tower.

What Qin Chen didn’t expect was that after he killed Yun Dongguang, in order to save her life, Li Wanxue from the Soul Fire Family actually brought her entire family to the Chen Di Pavilion.

Originally, Ao Lie and the others were still thinking about how to secretly eliminate Li Wanxue. After all, she had successfully joined the Tian Gong Martial Artist Division and would inevitably go to the Guanghan Mansion branch with the Tian Gong people. Once she grew stronger, she would definitely become a threat to the Chen Di Pavilion.

But who would have thought that Li Wanxue was quite clever? Knowing that the Chen Di Pavilion could not accommodate them from the Soul Fire Family, she came to the Chen Di Pavilion to plead guilty while Qin Chen was in seclusion. She even directly allowed the disciples of the Soul Fire Family to join the Chen Di Pavilion and submit to it.

Moreover, Li Wanxue voluntarily left behind a fragment of her soul in the Chen Di Pavilion to show her sincerity in submission, which was equivalent to giving half her life to the Chen Di Pavilion.

Considering that the Chen Di Pavilion was currently dominated by the Ao Family and did not understand Yunzhou well, Ao Lie ultimately agreed.

These minor matters were naturally not on Qin Chen’s mind.

He went straight to Wan Gu Tower, obtained the information prepared by Tian Xing Zhenren, and immediately headed to the Death Spirit Domain.

Before leaving, Qin Chen also left the Kai Tian Axe to Ao Lie. Now that Ao Lie possessed the Noah's Ark and the Kai Tian Axe, along with an ancient holy vein of heaven rank in Yunzhou, it was enough to deter any force. Even if several major forces joined hands, they might not be able to retain Ao Lie.

Moreover, with Wan Gu Tower backing him, Qin Chen had no worries at all.

After finishing everything, Qin Chen promptly used the teleportation array of Yunzhou and transferred his way to the Death Spirit Domain.

The Death Spirit Domain was located in an extremely remote area of Guanghan Mansion, at the very edge of Guanghan Mansion, and even bordered other mansions in the Heavenly Realm. This was also why Guanghan Mansion had never acted against the Death Spirit Domain; a single misstep could trigger conflicts between the mansions.

Over the years, this area had become a no-man's land.

With a map to the Death Spirit Domain, Qin Chen continuously pondered in his mind.

The Heavenly Realm was vast; Guanghan Mansion alone was boundless, and there were many places that were desolate and uninhabited—some mysterious forbidden zones, deserts, dead seas, chaotic voids, or mysterious cities.

Hardly anyone could know just how large the Heavenly Realm truly is.

Just Guanghan Mansion boasted countless large states, claiming to have hundreds of thousands of them, vast and immeasurable.
