Chapter 637 - Luo Tianshen

Space was torn apart, forming into a sizable vortex that seemed like it was connected to another world. At this moment, an imposing figure appeared out of the pitch-black vortex that could make the heart of others race.

That silhouette was initially gigantic, but when that figure appeared, it returned to normal size, and every single eye in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy was looking at it in shock.

It was an elderly man with white hair and beard, donned in black robes. His face was aged, but there was a heart-racing prestige emitting from him, even the space around him was faintly trembling from that prestige.

The entire earth and sky seemed to be submitting beneath his feet.

An indescribable pressure enveloped over, causing the ecstatic atmosphere in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy to turn silent in an instant. Not only students, but even some Elders had their faces paled as they looked at that figure. The pressure was something that they had not felt before. It was so much so that even Lord Northern Sea, the most powerful existence in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, did not possess such suffocating pressure.

Just what was the identity of that man to be so compelling to such an extent?

In the horizon far away, the space vortex wiggled. After the appearance of this deity-like elder, light appeared once again from the vortex, which was followed with deep roars.

Everyone saw hundreds of enormous silver cranes flapping their wings, covered in violent lightning as they passed through the vortex and quietly hovered behind the black-robed elder.

At this moment, everyone realised that on those cranes, there were knights donning silver armour and holding large silver spears. Although they had remained silent, a heavy killing aura swept out from their bodies, showing that they were a mighty army. The formation they had made the faces of innumerable students turn pale. Those knights riding on those lightning cranes had undoubtedly undergone countless life and death battles, a genuine army, not a regular army that was loose and disorganised.

If this army launched their attacks, not even a Sovereign expert would withstand their assault.

Mu Chen stood up with a heavy expression, while looking at the black-robed elder, as well as the army behind him. Those lightning cranes should be Lightning Eater Cranes, ranking 24th on the Spiritual Beast Records. With so many of them here, it showed how fearsome the Luo God Clan was.

When this mysterious group appeared, the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy was clearly intimidated by it. However, the academy side swiftly reacted as screeches of wind rang out along with the Elders rushing over, cautiously looking at that group.

Behind those Elders, large groups from the Punishment Hall also had their guards up.

But even when facing the guard from the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, the group of people did not move. The black-robed elder that stood in front swept his glance about, before fixing it at a specific direction.

In that direction, there was a slender, elegant and outstanding beauty quietly standing there as she looked at him.

Looking at the girl, a faint gentle smile that was hard to detect appeared on the face of the dignified elder. A moment later, he shifted his gaze onto Mu Chen, who stood beside Luo Li.

Although there was a considerable distance between them, Mu Chen felt a dreadful pressure enveloping him through the space in that instant. That pressure even created faint cracks on the stone beneath his feet.

However, the range of that pressure was perfectly controlled, aside from the area he stood, there wasn’t any pressure that leaked out.

Luo Li seemed to have sensed it with her keen senses as she slightly knitted her brows and was about to move forth.

However, Mu Chen extended his hand and held onto her wrist and lightly shook his head. He knew that if he needed Luo Li to stand before him during their first meeting, that Patriarch of the Luo God Clan would be thoroughly disappointed in him, or perhaps he didn’t have much expectations for himself in the first place.

Mu Chen’s expression was calm, only Luo Li, who had her hand held by him, could feel the faint trembling. Sweat seeped from his back, drenching his clothes in it.

A pressure coming from an Earth Sovereign was just too frightening.

If Luo Tianshen had any intentions to kill, Mu Chen would probably be slaughtered in an instant.

However, no matter how much pressure he felt, Mu Chen still maintained a calm expression. The pressure lasted for merely two minutes but had made Mu Chen feel a little numbness in his body.

Thus, when the pressure was suddenly withdrawn, Mu Chen realised that he could move his body, and because of the strength behind his grip, it left behind a mark on Luo Li’s fair wrist.

In the distant sky, Luo Tianshen gradually retracted his gaze and faintly said, “He does have some endurance, not as bad as I thought.”

Behind Luo Tianshen, there were two Lightning Eater Cranes that were closer to him, which had two men on them. Judging from their appearances, their ages were roughly twenty-seven or twenty-eight. They were donned in silver armour as they emitted cool dispositions. Their temperaments weren’t ordinary.

Clearly, the status of those two wasn’t low, but they didn’t seem to be close to each other as they maintained a distance apart and did not speak. However, the killing aura concealed in the centre of their brows made them seem like restrained asuras.

When those knights behind them saw the back silhouettes of those two, the revere emitting from the depths of their hearts was revealed in their eyes. Clearly, those two guys weren’t ordinary.

When they heard Luo Tianshen’s faint voice, there was a ripple in their initially calmed eyes. They directed their gazes over to that direction, looking a little curious.

Whoosh!

Within the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, there was a light silhouette that soared towards the horizon. Seeing the arrival of Dean Tai Cang, their expressions were heavy as they looked at Luo Tianshen and did not speak. A familiar laughter then rang out in this region.

“Haha, what rare guests we have. I never expected the Luo God Clan to come to our Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy. It was inconsiderate of me not to have received you guys.” Next to Dean Tai Cang, there was a slightly crooked elderly figure that appeared, he was the Northern Sea Dragon of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

When every student saw the arrival of the Northern Sea Dragon, they felt inwardly relieved. That figure was the real pillar of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

Luo Tianshen had also shifted his gaze over when the Northern Sea Dragon appeared as a smear of astonishment surfaced in his eyes. From the looks of it, he seemed to have sensed the strength possessed by the latter.

The latter was similarly at Earth Sovereign Realm.

“You must be Sire Northern Sea of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, right? I am Luo Tiansheng, I hope you don’t blame me for my impromptu visit.” Luo Tianshen said with a faint smile.

“So it’s the Patriarch of the Luo God Clan, it’s an honour to meet you at last.” The Northern Sea Dragon cupped his hands with a smile hung on his face as he restrained a lot of his worldly despise from earlier and became a little solemn. Although he was also in the Earth Sovereign Realm, he understood that there was still a considerable distance between him and Luo Tianshen. After all, the latter had been at the Earth Sovereign Realm for a long time, while he had just broken through to this realm a year ago.

When Luo Tianshen’s reputation was resonating, his was still mediocre.

“Patriarch Luo, I wonder what matter do you have to visit our Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy?” Seeing the appearance of the Northern Sea Dragon, Dean Tai Cang also felt relief in his heart as he spoke politely with his hands cupped together.

“I’m here to bring my granddaughter back, I believe the two of you won’t obstruct me in this, right?” Luo Tianshen spoke as he smiled.

Dean Tai Cang and the Northern Sea Dragon exchanged a glance as they looked at the direction of the Goddess Luo Association. In the entire Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, there was probably only that girl that could be associated with the Luo God Clan. However, they never imagined that Luo Li was the granddaughter of Luo Tianshen, which also implied that she’s the next Empress of the Luo God Clan…

“Students in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy have their freedom, as long as they do not breach the rules in the academy, they can leave as they wish. We will not meddle in it.” Northern Sea Dragon smiled.

“Then, I have to thank the both of you.” Luo Tianshen nodded his head as he took a step forth, and his figure had already disappeared. In that instant when he went, the two men behind him had also disappeared as well.

The sky above Goddess Luo Association.

Space rippled as three figures appeared in front of Luo Li and Mu Chen under the countless gazes.

“Li’er, follow me back.” Luo Tianshen looked at the girl that was becoming more and more outstanding, a smear of gratification appeared on his face as he extended his withered hand out to Luo Li with a smile.

Luo Li looked at the elder before her and bit her rosy lips. She took a glance at Mu Chen, who nodded his head with great difficulty.

She casually strode forth, but her steps were plodding and cumbersome. Her crystal-clear pupils dimmed down so much that it could make others feel heartbroken.

Although he was already prepared for it, he couldn’t stop the sour feeling from his nose as he looked at her silhouette. His hands were already tightly clenched in his sleeves, perhaps if he was powerful enough, no one would be able to take her away from him.

However, he was still too weak.

Mu Chen inhaled a mouthful of air. At this instant, his understanding became even more apparent. He needed to grow stronger so that this scene before him wouldn’t take place a second time.

Luo Li’s steps abruptly stopped as she turned around and dived into Mu Chen’s embrace. Her arms were tightly locked onto Mu Chen’s waist as she bit her rosy lips to the point that they started to bleed.

Mu Chen had also embraced the girl in his chest.

This scene made countless members of the Goddess Luo Association feel sour in their hearts.

Luo Tianshen quietly watched this scene, and the eyes of those two behind him rippled a little as they gave another glance at Mu Chen and slightly shifted their eyes.

Mu Chen slowly loosened his hug. He lowered his head and softly said in Luo Li’s ears, “I will not let anyone take you away from me ever again, no one!”

His voice was soft and slow, but the firmness in it was unquestionable.

Tears gathered in Luo Li’s eyes as she knew that for this objective, god-knows how much heartbreaking effort he would have to pay. But at this sort of time, she did not speak anything else and slowly nodded her head.

She pushed Mu Chen away and finally turned around without any hesitation. She walked past Luo Tianshen without taking his withered hand. Clearly, she was a little furious in her heart.

“Young Matriarch.”

The two men standing behind Luo Tianshen issued a faint smile to Luo Li as they bowed. Their hands were clenched as they place them on their chests, “Your knight has come to fetch you.”

They waved their hands as three brilliant Lightning Eater Cranes flew over screeching in the wind. One of them was exceptionally elegant and slender. Luo Li leapt up and landed on it.

As the Lightning Eater Crane that carried Luo Li left, Luo Tiansheng looked at Mu Chen for the first time, there weren’t any emotions revealed on his face.

Mu Chen had also raised his head as he looked at the old man that had supported the last glory of the Luo God Clan. In comparison to that old man, he was young and wore a calm expression.

There wasn’t any fear in him.
