I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Chapter 684: Chapter 377: Trade and Rescue Operation_2

The Spiritual Martial King responded with a piercing gaze, his words resounding.

One hour later.

In the Spiritual Martial World,

at the Northern Cold Glaciers.

Three figures gathered here.

Chen Sheng stood with his arms crossed, his eyes closed in meditation.

One of The Four Great Martial Divines, the Scorching Sun Envoy Lie Yan, and the Black Envoy You Ren, stood by his side.

You Ren was dressed entirely in black, wearing a mask of an evil spirit.

He stood motionless upon the ice.

From the time he followed Chen Sheng to these glaciers as instructed by the Spiritual Martial King,

he had only spoken once from beginning to end.

“Black Envoy, You Ren.”

It was as if he was reporting his name.

Beyond that,

he hadn’t said a word.

He could be described as extremely aloof.

As for the other, the Scorching Sun Envoy Lie Yan,

perhaps due to the jovial nature, or maybe because of the Spiritual Martial King’s amiable attitude towards Chen Sheng,

he was very talkative, and always maintained a respectful stance towards Chen Sheng.

Along the way,

Lie Yan occasionally explained the customs of the Spiritual Martial World, as well as what to be mindful of for this mission.

This was so that Chen Sheng would not be completely in the dark, charging forward without understanding.

“Please, esteemed guest, wait just a brief moment.”

“Chang Mu and the Thunder Envoy were previously executing missions, so it will take some time for them to arrive.”

The three were waiting for the other two among The Four Great Martial Divines,

Chang Mu, and Thunder.

Although, according to Chen Sheng’s own opinion, not many people were needed for this trip.

It would suffice to have someone who recognized Long Aotian so his identity could be verified upon meeting.

Nevertheless,

he was after all just the B-party.

The Spiritual Martial King was the A-party.

If the other party insisted that The Four Great Martial Divines could be of help,

he wasn’t so disdainful as to directly refuse.

“It’s no trouble at all.”

In response to Lie Yan’s words tinged with apology,

Chen Sheng softly replied.

“There’s no need for formality with me.”

“Just call me Chen Sheng.”

Having said that,

he turned his head and smiled at Lie Yan.

Although Chen Sheng needed no socialize in his own world,

now in a foreign land in the otherworld, the upcoming mission required guidance from the others.

It was always right to be friendly.

“Alright then, I shall take the liberty to do so.”

Lie Yan also returned the smile.

Whoosh—

In the midst of their conversation,

a sharp sound gradually approached from afar.

Chen Sheng opened his eyes and looked towards the direction of the sound.

Purple lightning flashed along the skyline, arriving in an instant.

Boom!!

The thunder struck down.

Ice shards scattered everywhere.

The fierce collision of the thunder light with the ice surface instantly whipped up a thick fog of ice that enveloped the surroundings.

Chen Sheng had yet to make a move,

when he heard Lie Yan behind him let out a cold snort.

“Shi Jian, you really should change that nasty habit of yours.”

With his words came a wave of heat spreading from behind him.

Wherever it passed, the ice shards and the dense fog were utterly dissipated, yet it did not even scratch the ice surface under everyone’s feet.

Such control was,

truly exquisite.

“Sorry, sorry.”

The light of the thunder faded away,

and a somewhat cheerful voice followed.

A short figure approached Chen Sheng hastily.

“You must be the King’s esteemed guest, a pleasure to meet you.”

“I am the Thunder Envoy, Shi Jian.”

Shi Jian?

Hearing this name, a hint of recognition flickered across Chen Sheng’s face.

He remembered back when he first began practicing martial arts, he also knew someone named Shi Jian.

Unfortunately,

that Shi Jian had already given up on the path of martial arts and faded into the crowd.

It was unlikely that their paths would cross again with the road that Chen Sheng was on.

Pulling his thoughts back,

Chen Sheng looked toward the person in front of him.

The newcomer was short, only reaching up to Chen Sheng’s waist.

And yet he wore a purple robe that hung straight to the ground.

Together with his white hair and child-like face, he looked quite out of place.

Nevertheless,

Chen Sheng still responded with a nod and a smile, extending his hand to shake hands with him.

“Chen Sheng, feel free to use my name.”

“Sure thing, sure thing.”

As Shi Jian clasped Chen Sheng’s palm, a sly glint flashed in his eyes.

Purple lightning, barely perceptible, crept over the back of the hand, heading straight for Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng’s expression remained unchanged,

with only a trace of golden light subtly shining in his eyes.

Just as

the Arrogant Ability was about to be activated, obliterating the thunder,

“Shi Jian!”

At that moment,

a sharp reprimand came.

The lightning vanished in an instant.

Shi Jian first looked startled, then quickly switched to a sheepish grin.

“Sorry, sorry.”

“The little brother isn’t used to seeing strong outsiders and got a little overeager.”

“I hope the esteemed guest won’t take offense.”

“It’s fine.”

The instant the thunder rushed over his arm, Chen Sheng had already sensed that it contained no threat, merely an attempt by Shi Jian to probe his strength.

If he were in that position,

he too would have wanted to test someone unknown who was to lead them.

“He’s the youngest among us, with the most unpredictable character,”

“If he has offended in any way, please forgive him.”

It wasn’t enough for Shi Jian to apologize.

Lie Yan immediately followed with another sentence.

“I’m not so petty.”

“There’s no need to be so formal.”

Chen Sheng slowly shook his head, returning a smile of goodwill.

At the same time,

the jocular Shi Jian moved closer to Lie Yan’s side.

Watching Chen Sheng’s retreating figure, his eyes were filled with doubt and suspicion.

“Big brother,”

“this person… his strength seems barely comparable to mine, are we really okay to follow him on a mission?”

His voice sounded directly in Lie Yan’s mind.

Since hearing about the mission, Shi Jian had been very curious about the so-called “esteemed guest.”

In his view,

anyone who could lead The Four Great Martial Divines surely had to be at least at the Galaxy Level, right?

The moment he tested Chen Sheng with a bit of thunder,

although the other party hadn’t had the chance to counter, Shi Jian was already stopped by Lie Yan,

but the feeling of the thunder was telling the truth.

This so-called “esteemed guest”

only seemed to have the strength of a Starburst Level fighter.
