“the chaotic flow of space?”

long chen’s heart immediately sank. the chaotic flow of space was the space between two worlds, and it was filled with countless spatial blades. even life star experts would be instantly torn to bits.

even if the xuantian tower was present to protect them, once they were lost in the chaotic flow, they might never return.

this was the worst possibility, but long chen had to accept reality. facing the attacks of five divine items that came out of nowhere, there was little that the xuantian tower could do.

that kind of power could destroy the world. there was no way it could escape, especially considering that this was something their enemies had been plotting for a long time.

if the xuantian tower had really been forced into the chaotic flow of space, then even if it could resist the spatial blades, it would run out of energy eventually.

killing intent raged within long chen. no matter how carefully he acted, he had still ended up implicating the xuantian dao sect.

in the spirit world, to protect the forest of life, he had become mortal enemies with the ancient races, corrupt path, and ancient family alliance. with his opponents having to pull out after a miserable loss, they had decided to destroy his home.

without the xuantian dao sect, he was alone, facing a world full of enemies. like this, they could find a million excuses to kill him. no one would speak up for him.

long chen felt himself to be a star of disaster. wherever he went, disaster would follow. thinking of li tianxuan, wilde, and the others lost in the chaotic flow of space, his killing intent raged.

“brother wenlong, is there any way to find them? i don’t mind paying the price,” asked long chen.

zheng wenlong shook his head, sighing, “this isn’t something you even needed to ask. you already know the answer.”

the chaotic flow of space was too powerful. anything that was lost in there would have difficulty ever getting out. sometimes, you might even accidentally enter a foreign world, never to return.

if the xuantian tower had entered on its own, then perhaps there would be some chance of it returning. but at that time, it had been forced in under the sneak attack of five divine items. even if it was claimed to be number one in defense, it must have been heavily injured by that sneak attack.

in that kind of situation, the best it could do was bitterly endure within the chaotic flow of space. it was powerless to break through into the world, so things did not bode well for the xuantian tower.

long chen unconsciously clenched his fists so hard that they creaked. he felt powerless. he had no way to find the xuantian tower, let alone save them.

he felt like he was going insane. it was his first time feeling like brains were absolutely useless. brains, intelligence? they didn’t have the slightest use here.

however, long chen didn’t need this information from zheng wenlong. the xuantian dao sect had some secret information of their own regarding the corrupt path. at the very least, they knew where some strongholds were located. from the start, long chen hadn’t expected to force zheng wenlong to tell him these things.

he understood zheng wenlong. although he cared a great deal about their friendship, he was someone with principles. he followed the wealth god, and he couldn’t do anything that betrayed his faith.

what long chen wanted to know wasn’t business secrets. such things couldn’t be told to him by zheng wenlong, or it would offend many people. furthermore, this matter also involved pill valley, and it might provoke the endless battle between the two of them. zheng wenlong didn’t want to implicate the entire huayun sect just for his friendship.

if zheng wenlong left the huayun sect before telling long chen these secrets, that would be a different story. even if others learned about it, it would be the conduct of one person, not the huayun sect.

however, after hua mingxiong’s advice, zheng wenlong had retained his status as a disciple of the huayun sect. he helped to answer some of long chen’s questions and provided some resources for him, but zheng wenlong couldn’t betray his sect.

“do you need any other help?” asked zheng wenlong a bit apologetically. it seemed just information-wise, he wasn’t able to help long chen that much.

“for now, i don’t need anything. but don’t worry, when i do, i won’t stand on courtesy. ah, speaking of which, i have some large business that i wonder if you dare to receive?”

“what business?”

“just some pills that came from pill valley. well, more accurately, it’s the entire private stock of pill valley. do you dare to take this business?” asked long chen.

“you... damn, so... it was you.” zheng wenlong stared at long chen with shock. he instantly connected him to long san.

“some of these medicinal pills have pill valley’s marking on them. i trust you have a way to remove them. however, this matter is very big, so i have to ask if you have the courage to swallow this big piece of meat.”

zheng wenlong smiled bitterly. “this isn’t meat, this is a giant dragon. i need to ask the higher-ups. this... this is too big.”

this was truly too big. if pill valley learned of this matter, they would definitely think that long san was someone the huayun sect had sent to pill valley. then pill valley wouldn’t hesitate to launch a decisive war against them. that wasn’t something zheng wenlong wanted to see.

zheng wenlong left for a bit before quickly running back in excitedly. “i’ve asked. you can leave the medicinal pills behind, and the huayun sect will help you get rid of them. however, due to the high danger, we will be taking an extra thirty percent cut of the profits. is that alright?”

that was naturally fine. there were many medicinal pills that long chen couldn’t even use. if he kept them, they would just rot in his hands. for the huayun sect to only take an extra thirty percent cut made him feel that they truly had a conscience.

long chen handed zheng wenlong all the medicinal pills. zheng wenlong offered to show long chen the historical sales of these pills to make him understand how much money he might earn, but long chen declined. he didn’t have the time.

leaving the huayun sect, long chen found a concealed place to remove his disguise. with his real appearance, he appeared in the middle of the eastern xuan city.

“aren’t you all looking for long chen? well, i’ve come!”
