"Do you have so much confidence in me?" Zhang Chen asked lightly.

Hearing this, Gu Chen took out a jade pendant from his storage space, and in the center of the jade pendant, there was a chen character engraved on it.

Zhang Chen's eyes narrowed, and he felt a familiar aura on this jade pendant.

"I found this jade pendant a few days ago outside the Dutian Secret Realm. I don't know what the connection is between this jade pendant and you, but you have exactly the same aura as this jade pendant, so I will put it here

I leave the jade pendant to you."

Gu Chen put the jade pendant on the table, and then left with Gu Yun.

Ever since Zhang Chen rejected him, Gu Chen had not mentioned a word about the moon stone, as if he had forgotten about it.

After Gu Chen and his daughter left, Zhang Chen picked up the jade pendant on the table.

This jade pendant indeed belongs to him.

As for why it suddenly appeared in Dutian Secret Realm, it is unknown.

Now he already knows almost everything about the secret of the moon stone.

Things in the Gu Yue Dynasty have been almost settled, and Zhang Chen decided to return to the Xuanyang Sect.

The next day.

Zhang Chen came to Tianji Pavilion early in the morning to find Li Shiyun and told him that he wanted to borrow the teleportation array of Tianji Pavilion to return to Xuanyang Sect.

Li Shiyun agreed without hesitation and took a Tao map with a sky full of stars.

Zhang Chen found the location of Xuanyang Sect among the stars in the sky.

Then a teleportation array is formed.

Zhang Chen entered the teleportation array, and the surrounding scenery disappeared from his eyes before he even had time to see it.

After entering the teleportation array, Zhang Chen gained a new recognition of the strength of Tianji Pavilion.

Soon.

Zhang Chen teleported to the vicinity of Xuanyang Sect.

Several months have passed since going to Dutian Secret Realm.

During these months, Xuanyang Sect did not give up the search for Zhang Chen.

But no matter how they searched, they didn't get any news about Zhang Chen.

"Sect Master, we still haven't found any news about Zhang Chen."

Above the main hall, Lin Qianxue and Luo Qingchen were fighting side by side.

Lin Zhengran looked at the two women standing in front of him with a solemn expression.

Ever since the two of them came back from Dutian Secret Realm, they have been looking for Zhang Chen.

But in the past few months, they have not found any news.

"Hey, order all the disciples who are looking for Zhang Chen outside to come back."

Lin Zhengran made this decision helplessly, and now Xuanyang Sect's annual competition is about to begin.

Most of the disciples within the sect were sent out to find Zhang Chen.

In order for the sect competition to be held smoothly, Lin Zhengran could only make this most helpless decision.

"But father, we haven't found Zhang Chen yet. Are we really going to give up like this?"

Lin Qianxue said excitedly.

If it weren't for Zhang Chen, I'm afraid they would have died in the Dutian Secret Realm.

"I feel helpless to make such a decision, but the sect competition is about to be held, and the other three major sects have also begun to hold sect competitions. After this, there will be four major sect competitions."
p>

Lin Qianxue knew her father's helplessness, but this kind of sect competition was only held by the inner disciples of the sect.

It has nothing to do with direct disciples like them.

"Maybe we don't have to look for him."

Luo Qingchen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly pulled out his sword and disappeared into the hall.

Looking at Luo Qingchen who suddenly disappeared, Lin Qianxue and Lin Zhengran glanced at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

At this time, Zhang Chen had already appeared at the entrance of Xuanyang Sect's middle gate. Looking at the mountain gate not far away, Zhang Chen couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, a cold light flashed through, and a sword appeared in front of Zhang Chen.

"Why, is this how you welcomed me when I just came here?"

Luo Qingchen appeared in front of Zhang Chen without saying a word, and slashed across with his long sword again.

"Ding!"

As a crisp sound sounded, the God-killing Spear appeared in Zhang Chen's hand.

"Let me see how much progress you have made in the past few months!"

Zhang Chen waved the God-killing Spear in his hand, and the bloody aura condensed into substance and surrounded Luo Qingchen.

Feeling the blood lingering around his body, Luo Qingchen showed a solemn look in his eyes.

In this month, Zhang Chen's cultivation has become stronger than before, especially with the God-killing Spear in his hand.

This leaves no one with any ability to fight back.

"Ten thousand swords unite!"

Luo Qingchen gave a sweet shout, and then a spiritual sword that condensed spiritual energy gathered around Zhang Chen's body.

Go!

As Luo Qingchen's palm gently pushed forward, all the spirit swords carried cold light and attacked Zhang Chen.

At this time, the sound of fighting between Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen also attracted the attention of Xuanyang Sect disciples.

"What a terrifying fighting power. Could it be that someone invaded the sect and the sect leader started fighting with them?"

More and more disciples gathered under the mountain gate. At this time, in the eyes of all the disciples, they saw Luo Qingchen controlling the swords in the sky and attacking everyone.

However, no one can clearly see who the person among these swords is?

"Broken!" Zhang Chen shouted, and all the sharp swords formed by Luo Qingchen were shattered.

"Hiss——"

The disciples standing around and watching saw that Luo Qingchen's attack was actually broken by the young man in front of him.

They all couldn't believe what they saw.

"He is senior brother Zhang Chen!"

As these sharp swords disappeared, the Xuanyang Sect disciples who had been watching the battle finally saw clearly who this young man was?

"You've become stronger again!" Luo Qingchen sheathed his sword and looked at Zhang Chen in front of him and said.

"You are confused!" Zhang Chen put away his God-killing Spear and looked at Luo Qingchen in front of him and said.

"You have to remember that you are following the path of ruthless swordsmanship. Since you have chosen this path yourself, you should not inject too much emotion into this path in the future!"

"During the battle just now, I could clearly feel that you were showing mercy. Your mind was confused, so your attacks began to become disorganized."

Zhang Chen knew why Luo Qingchen showed mercy when he fought with him just now.

But if she does this, she will only go astray in what she insists on.

"Come again!"

After Zhang Chen said these words, Luo Qingchen became very out of touch, especially now, there was no trace of emotion in her eyes.

"This is the Luo Qingchen I know. This is the path you have chosen. Since you have chosen this path yourself, you must stick to it from beginning to end without any wavering."<

/p>

The long knife in Zhang Chen's hand drew a pale blade and attacked Luo Xingchen!

"Broken!"

Facing Zhang Chen's attack, Luo Qingchen clasped her hands together, and the sword in front of her began to spin rapidly.

The next second, the long sword turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Zhang Chen's sword light. The two extremely powerful forces collided together.

As a huge explosion sounded, Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen were drowned in the light.

"Senior brother and senior sister are both too strong. I am afraid that even if we spend our entire lives, there is no way we can reach their situation."

Looking at the rays of light like the scorching sun, the eyes of these disciples watching the battle showed a trace of yearning.

As monks, the state they aspire to reach is where Luo Qingchen and Zhang Chen are now.

"Okay, that's it. Remember how you feel now. This is the goal you have always insisted on achieving."

Zhang Chen put away his knife and walked up to Luo Qingchen. After saying a few words, he stood up and left.
