Chapter 3800: True Identity
Chapter 3800: True Identity
“That’s right, I am the person that the Immortal Feather sect recently placed a bounty on.” Jian Chen admitted it openly without any attempt to hide it. In reality, he never took the bounty from the Immortal Feather sect seriously. He had the Divine Armour of Heavenflight and the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race. If he wanted to hide, there were not a lot of people in the Immortals’ World that could track him down.
For a moment, the Warring Old Freak was stunned, unable to utter anything. He stared blankly at Jian Chen with his sombre eyes. His expression changed again and again.
The Immortal Feather sect demanded the capture of an Immortal Emperor. That matter had caused a stir for a moment, leading to quite the impact, but certain peak organisations beyond a certain level of strength did not take it seriously.
Meanwhile, the Warring Old Freak never took the bounty from the Immortal Feather sect seriously either, whether it was due to his strength or out of his sense of pride.
He was not interested in the exact identity of the person that the Immortal Feather sect was after either.
However, that was until the string of events that shook the entire Immortals’ World, which made this person gradually enter the view of some peak experts.
This person’s name was Chang Yang. He was a Thousand Immortal General of the Observance Heaven City of the Reverent Observance Heaven at the time!
Under the lead of the Wayless Immortal Exalt of the Immortal Feather sect and the mutual agreement of many Immortal Exalts of the Reverent Observance Heaven, they ultimately forced a connection between Chang Yang and the present sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen.
It was likely that both of them originated from a mysterious organisation.
The matter was even connected to the destruction of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.If that was it, it still would not have been enough to create a great stir across the Immortals’ World. What truly shocked the Immortals’ World was the participation of the elder princess of the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance, Fang Jing.
Under the elder princess’s forceful intervention, the seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants were left either dead or injured. Even their strongest ancestor, the Space-splitting Venerable, had his body destroyed, and his soul was almost imprisoned.
The matter had even led to a direct clash between the elder princess and the Sacred Beast clan.
Wielding the Dominion’s Brush, Fang Jing faced the four supreme ancestors of the Sacred Beast clan in a startling battle within a spatial crack. Alone, she completely overwhelmed their combined efforts in a crushing manner.
The unprecedented battle feats completely shocked the ancient existences hidden throughout the Immortals’ World.
After all, as Fang Jing’s opponents, none of the four supreme ancestors of the Sacred Beast clan were regular Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts. They all possessed the bloodline of Grand Exalts, having grasped the secret techniques of Grand Exalts and various other ancient secret techniques. They all wielded sovereign god artifacts on top of that.
Without any exaggeration, any one of the four ancestors were no weaker than a heavenly emperor.
Yet in the end, such a startling force with such battle prowess actually faced defeat.
The result completely shook up the world. It stirred up the entire Immortals’ World, and it pushed the elder princess of the Heavenly Palace of Great Brilliance to unimaginable heights.
It was also because of the elder princess’ clash with the Sacred Beast clan that the severity of the matter had elevated. In the end, everyone gradually learned of the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen, and the Thousand Immortal General of the Observance Heaven City, Chang Yang, as they were connected to this matter.
After all, the two of them had served as the fuse for this startling battle.
If it were not for the Wayless Immortal Exalt’s participation, if the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had not been destroyed, none of the events afterwards would have occurred.
At this moment, the Warring Old Freak had never imagined that the person before him was actually one of the crucial figures that led to the startling battle outside the Observance Heaven City.
“Yang Yutian, Chang Yang, which exactly is your true identity?” the Warring Old Freak said sternly.
“You want to know, senior Warring? So be it. It’s fine even if I tell you. Neither of them are my true identity.” Jian Chen admitted openly. His greatest secret was the twin swords. As long as they were not divulged, his identity was not important.
“Then who exactly are you?” The Warring Old Freak narrowed his eyes as if he was very shocked.
“Jian Chen, the present sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. That is my true identity,” said Jian Chen.
When he heard that, the Warring Old Freak shuddered inside. His elderly eyes erupted brightly as his pupils narrowed violently, staring straight at Jian Chen.
It was as if even if Jian Chen claimed to be the Thousand Immortal General, Chang Yang, or if he claimed that he came from some ancient and powerful peak organisation, it would not be enough to shock the Warring Old Freak.
However, the identity of the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens immediately sent a ripple through the Warring Old Freak’s heart that had remained unperturbed for many years.
“Are you really the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?” The Warring Old Freak stared straight at Jian Chen. His expression changed as he was overcome with a multitude of feelings.
However, before Jian Chen could answer him, he muttered to himself, “I really never thought that the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens would actually be the same person as the Thousand Immortal General called Chang Yang.”
“It was already rumoured on the Reverent Observance Heaven that Chang Yang was probably connected to the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen. After all, there were some similarities between the two of them, but it was only a theory.”
“I never thought you’d actually be the same person.” The Warring Old Freak stared at Jian Chen with extremely mixed feelings. The hostility in his gaze had already vanished. He was filled with mixed feelings as he asked, “In other words, the million disciples of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants died by your hand?”
“That’s right!” Jian Chen did not deny it.
“You sure are bold.” Even the Warring Old Freak seemed to be startled. After all, that was the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Let alone their background, just the sect alone possessed extremely great strength. Even the greatest organisation on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, the War sect, came nowhere close to the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.
The part that astounded him even more was that the cause for the upheaval on the Reverent Observance Heaven was actually standing right before him.
“You could have remained perfectly hidden. No one in the world would know you were the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen, so why did you tell me this secret? Aren’t you afraid that I would divulge it and cause you endless trouble?” the Warring Old Freak asked out of uncertainty.
“Even if you were to divulge it, senior Warring, it would not have a large impact on me. All they’ll find out is that the Chang Yang of the Observance Heaven City is Jian Chen of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. But even if they find out, so what? If I want to hide, there aren’t a lot of people across the entire Immortals’ World that can find me.”
“I’m telling you this because I don’t want to become a mortal enemy of senior Warring and the War sect over a laughable reason like siding with a demonic expert. I hope senior Warring can take a step back here.”
“That’s because there are no grievances between me and the War sect. Of course, if senior Warring insists on making things difficult for me, the War sect of the Hall Brilliance Heaven will have to become an enemy of our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”
Jian Chen spoke calmly, but he enunciated each word firmly, giving off great confidence.
He also gave off a dauntless spirit, unfazed by the greatest organisation of the Hall Brilliance Heaven, the War sect.
Normally, if an Immortal Emperor slighted him so rudely, the Warring Old Freak would be slightly angered, but at this moment, he felt no anger at all. As a matter of fact, he could not even muster any feelings of displeasure.
He sighed gently. He looked at Jian Chen with mixed emotions and said melancholically, “If you had told me your identity as the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens right from the beginning, I would have never tried to make things difficult for you. The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has completely declined now, but the sect has made enormous contributions and sacrifices for the Immortals’ World in the past. Even to this day, many of the older generation still remembers it.”
“The reason why so many Immortal Exalts are still alive in the Immortals’ World is entirely due to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. If the Grand Exalt of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had not stooped beneath his status and killed many experts of the Saints’ World, shrinking the difference between us and the Saints’ World, then the Immortal Exalts of the Immortals’ World would have suffered drastic losses. Many ancient traditions and legacies would have vanished.”
When he recalled the past, the Warring Old Freak was filled with emotion, leaving him sighing again and again. However, he remembered something very soon and faltered. He was filled with a sense of helplessness, which all turned into a lengthy sigh in the end.
