Chapter 2690: Chapter 2693: That Is the Saintess

”Damn, kid, are you that gutsy?”

Wen Hao looked at Jiang Chen full of surprise.

”Jiang Chen dared to kill the leader of the Canglan Army, why would he fear killing the Young Master of Qingwang Residence?”

Teng Wenkang smiled faintly.

Um...

Wen Hao was stunned for a moment, looking at Jiang Chen, then at Teng Wenkang, somewhat confused.

The white-robed woman also raised her gaze to Jiang Chen in astonishment.

”This... senior, are you from the Ice and Snow Temple?”

Jiang Chen turned his head nervously towards the white-robed woman, ignoring Wen Hao.

Teng Wenkang paused slightly. He had never seen Jiang Chen like this before; was it... bewildered? Uneasy? This kid could be like this?

Seeing Wen Hao about to make a joke again, Teng Wenkang quickly raised his hand to stop him, understanding that Jiang Chen was likely about to speak on something very important to him.

”So what if I am?”

The woman spoke indifferently, not waiting for Jiang Chen’s response, and looked up at Wen Hao: ”Dear friend, please release the Domain Suppression, the eldest is here personally. If I keep running, I’ll truly become a wanted criminal!”

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, then noticed the woman’s tense body relax slightly.

”Answer his question first; we need not rush!”

Teng Wenkang gestured to Jiang Chen, speaking softly.

The woman and Wen Hao were both taken aback, casting a surprised glance at Teng Wenkang, Wen Hao revealing a strange expression. How come both big brother and little sister are so polite to him? What’s going on? Big brother isn’t in the same realm as him!

”Thank you, eldest son!”

Jiang Chen thanked Teng Wenkang with a fist salute, realizing if Teng Wenkang personally intervened, it must be a significant matter, allowing him to ask first was an enormous favor.

Teng Wenkang nodded back but said nothing.

”Senior, do you know... do you know... do you know Ye Jingyi?”

Jiang Chen mustered all his courage again and again until he finally asked, his eyes full of anticipation, bewilderment, tension, and even a slight hint of worry and fear.

Teng Wenkang’s brows furrowed lightly, turning to look at the woman with slightly narrowed eyes.

The woman’s pupils constricted at the words, her heart trembled fiercely. She swallowed, forcibly suppressing her shock and replied with a feigned indifference: ”Never heard of her.”

Jiang Chen’s complexion turned pale, his body trembled, and he grabbed the table, feeling as though he was about to collapse.

Teng Wenkang’s brows tightly furrowed, he gazed deeply at Jiang Chen, his eyes showing a complex expression.

”Then, then Senior do you know if there’s anyone from Life Origin Star in Ice and Snow Temple?”

Jiang Chen unwillingly asked again.

”Life Origin Star? Most who emerge from there end up in Origin Continent; even if there’s deviation, it would only lead to the other Four Great Continents, not our side!”

The woman spoke indifferently again.

Jiang Chen’s complexion instantly turned ghastly pale, his eyes somewhat unfocused.

Huh! Huh! Huh!

After several heavy breaths, Jiang Chen slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had regained himself.

”Thank you, Senior!”

Jiang Chen gave a fist salute to the woman, his eyes reflecting loss and regret.

”Is the woman you’re searching for very important to you?”

The white-robed woman hesitated for a moment, asking softly.

”She’s my fiancée!”

Jiang Chen smiled gently, his eyes filled with tenderness, longing, and deep sorrow: ”I... I lost her!”

”Just find another one then.”

Wen Hao shrugged nonchalantly.

Jiang Chen suddenly turned to Wen Hao, showing a chilling gaze with blood-red eyes.

Wen Hao shrank slightly, suddenly feeling a sense of heart-palpitating fear inside.

Whoa! What realm am I, what realm is he? He made me feel death? Damn, what the hell?

Whoosh!

Long exhaling, the blood-red tint in Jiang Chen’s eyes faded, and he said calmly: ”Wen Hao, I don’t care about your personality. If you joke about Jing Yi in front of me again, we’re destined to be enemies!”

Wen Hao was stunned, eyes showing an incredible look?

Don’t you know who I am? You want to be enemies with me just because of a joke? Are you sure?

”Eldest son, sorry, I’ll take my leave!”

Jiang Chen rose, giving Teng Wenkang a fist salute.

Teng Wenkang nodded slightly, turning to walk towards the stairs.

”That kid... did I just casually say something? Does he really have to?”

Wen Hao watched Jiang Chen’s retreating figure, shrugging.

Teng Wenkang glanced at the woman, who also stared at Jiang Chen as he left, her body slightly stiffened, seemingly trying to call out but failing to do so.

”Wenhao, don’t joke about Jiang Chen’s fiancée anymore. That guy’s cultivation goal is to become powerful enough to search for his fiancée.”

Rolling his eyes, Teng Wenkang turned to Wen Hao: ”Because of past events, his Dao Heart has become unsettled once, almost causing his downfall. So don’t provoke him with jokes about his fiancée; in his eyes, his fiancée is more important than his own life.”

”Wow, a man of deep affection, affecting even his Dao Heart.”

Si Wenhao murmured softly, surprised: ”From Life Origin Star, scattered, then it wasn’t a normal arrival. Was it falling into a space rift?”

Glancing at the white-robed woman, Si Wenhao suspiciously remarked: ”Your breath fluctuated fiercely just now. That kid didn’t notice due to his excited state, but I wasn’t fooled—you’re deceiving him!”

The white-robed woman stayed silent for a moment before speaking softly: ”Is your Si family willing to stand up for him? Willing to help him seize his fiancée?”

Teng Wenkang and Si Wenhao both furrowed their brows lightly.

”If not, then don’t ask anymore. I’m searching the royal city just to find him, Jiang Chen! I came to Canglan Continent specifically under a request to find him. People from all Five Continents are searching; that person said, Jiang Chen is destined to be extraordinary, certain to make a name for himself. I traced him here, thinking maybe he’s been brought into the royal city by the little princess, unexpectedly encountered him here.”

The white-robed woman noted their reaction, speaking softly: ”Ye... She’s accepted as a disciple by the Hall Master, now a candidate for Saintess. You should understand the meaning of Saintess; trying to take away a Saintess is harder than ascending the heavens, and his strength... he has no hope!”

Teng Wenkang and Si Wenhao’s expressions shifted slightly, both falling silent.

”You can leave, I’ll inform him to look for his fiancée once he’s Above Saint; that’s the limit. If delayed further, his Dao Heart cannot be made perfect!”

Teng Wenkang inhaled deeply, speaking solemnly.

The white-robed woman trembled, exclaiming in surprise: ”You think he can... but he’s only in the Divine Infant Realm!”

”Yes, he can! The reason he’s still in the Divine Infant Realm is due to twice intentionally suppressing his realm. He’s been in the Void Nether Realm for only three years, yet he suppressed his realm for two and a half. If he kept breaking through, reaching Late Virtual Refinement Realm isn’t impossible now!”

Teng Wenkang spoke softly.

”I see... I understand now!”

The white-robed woman’s face showed a trace of astonishment, nodding gently.
