Chapter 310 Lin Che’s Divine Sense Saw Master Huang Long

Lin Che rushed forward, wanting to grab that familiar yet strange figure, but his fingertips passed directly through the old man's shoulder, leaving no trace of touch.

"Master!"

Lin Che called out again, his voice trembling with disbelief.

The Huanglong Zhenren in front of him still had his head lowered, the clanking of chains exceptionally clear in this void.

But no matter how Lin Che called out or reached to touch, it was as if he was confronting a phantom.

Lin Che suddenly realized that his physical body was not present; the spiritual energy in his body circulated sluggishly, but his divine sense fluctuated with unusual clarity.

This was clearly his consciousness being drawn into the Cultivation Alliance, or rather, a wisp of soul sealed within that painting from back then allowed him to see this location.

"Master, look at me! I am Lin Che!"

Lin Che's eyes turned crimson with urgency as he raised his hand to pull at the profound iron chains wrapped around Huanglong Zhenren's body; the instant his fingertips passed through the chains, a stinging ripple of divine sense spread out.

Huanglong Zhenren seemed completely unaware, slowly raising his head, his deeply lined face devoid of any expression, his lips moving slightly.

Lin Che knelt on the ground, clenching his fists: "I'm sorry, Master, this disciple is incompetent and has caused you to suffer."

"Little fellow… is that you?"

Huanglong Zhenren seemed to sense Lin Che's aura and slowly spoke: "Little fellow, you've done very well. At such a young age, you've already reached the Shattered Nirvana Realm. Your master is proud of you."

"Besides, your master's cultivation has already reached the Five Signs of the Celestial Decay, and I am the fifth generation Vermillion Bird Holy Emperor of the Vermillion Bird Holy Sect. They wouldn't dare do anything to me."

Lin Che clenched his fists, his eyes red, and declared: "This disciple swears here and now that I will rescue Master in the future, and anyone who has harmed Master, this disciple will ensure their souls scatter and they can never reincarnate for all eternity!"

"Where did this junior come from, daring to challenge my Cultivation Alliance? Get out!"

A deafening roar suddenly erupted, and a surge of Celestial Human Realm energy whistled past, instantly shattering Lin Che's divine sense.

"Lin Che!"

Before the words finished, the surrounding darkness suddenly surged, Huanglong Zhenren's figure began to turn transparent, and the sound of chains gradually faded.

Lin Che suddenly opened his eyes, reaching out to grasp the last trace of the afterimage, but ultimately only caught a cold emptiness.

The next second, his divine sense was violently tugged by a massive force, the darkness before his eyes receded, and he returned to the brightly lit room.

His fingertips still rested on the painting; Huanglong Zhenren in the painting was still as he was back then, as if the thrilling scene just now was merely a fleeting illusion of divine sense.

Lin Che gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely: "Cultivation Alliance, I swear here and now that I will make you ants scatter your souls!"

Qinglong Zi glanced at the completely dissipated divine sense, let out a disdainful snort, and said: "Lu Yun, you really have taken in a good disciple."

"To be able to use divine sense to reach this place is truly impressive, but unfortunately, his strength is still too weak. In the face of absolute power, he is merely an ant trying to shake a tree."

Qinglong Zi, with one hand behind his back, continued: "Lu Yun, currently the Luo Tian Star Region is preparing to attack my Cultivation Alliance Star Region. Originally, Senior Long Panzi wanted you to preside over the overall situation, but now it seems that there is no need for that."

Huanglong Zhenren said indifferently: "Qinglong Zi, you will pay the price for your arrogance."

"Price?"

Qinglong Zi instantly appeared before Qinglong Zi, directly grabbing his neck with his right hand, a trace of almost imperceptible coldness flashing in his eyes.

"Just you? If not for the Top-Grade Space Treasure on Lin Che being related to you, you wouldn't have ended up in your current state."

"Lu Yun, oh Lu Yun, I best advise you not to go against us, even if that senior protects you, you should understand the allure of a Shattered Nirvana treasure."

"Even a powerful expert like Senior Long Panzi cares deeply about it. Do you really think Lin Che can rescue you?"

Qinglong Zi's fingertips suddenly tightened, the chains leaving red marks on Huanglong Zhenren's neck, yet he seemed completely unconcerned, only staring intently into the other's eyes, his voice filled with suppressed greed.

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm asking you, that Top-Grade Space Treasure on Lin Che, and those endless secret arts and divine abilities, did you give them to him back then?"

Huanglong Zhenren let out a muffled sound from his throat, but a sneer appeared on his lips: "What? Jealous?"

"Nonsense!"

Qinglong Zi's gaze suddenly turned sharp, and he roared in anger: "How could a mere brat who hadn't even reached Peeping Nirvana back then acquire such treasures?"

"Besides you, this old fellow of the Vermillion Bird Holy Sect, who else could have such a grand scheme!"

Qinglong Zi increased the force in his hand, his eyes red, and said: "I'll ask again, did you give him those things? Where are they hidden? Are there more?"

Huanglong Zhenren slowly closed his eyes, not answering a single word, no matter how the other party pressed him.

The crisp clang of chains echoed in the gloomy cell. Seeing that he wouldn't budge, Qinglong Zi laughed in extreme anger.

"Good, very good! You think I won't find out if you don't tell me? Once I catch Lin Che, I'll skin him and search his soul, and I'll still get the answers!"

With that, Qinglong Zi suddenly released his hand. Huanglong Zhenren coughed violently, but his face remained as calm as an ancient well.

Qinglong Zi stared at him intently for a long while, finally suppressing the urge to act immediately, and snorted coldly: "You'd better pray I don't find concrete evidence, otherwise…"

Qinglong Zi didn't finish, turning and flicking his sleeve as he left. Only Huanglong Zhenren's heavy breathing and the occasional faint clinking of chains remained in the cell.

Huanglong Zhenren sighed: "Lin Che…"

In the quiet room, Li Muwan, dressed in thin clothes, walked in and gently snuggled into Lin Che's embrace, inhaling his masculine scent.

"Husband, what's wrong? You seem so worried. Has something happened?"

Li Muwan pursed her thin lips, asking with a look of confusion.

Lin Che did not hide anything, telling Li Muwan everything he had just seen.

Upon learning that her husband had seen Master Huanglong Zhenren, Li Muwan's beautiful face also showed a shocked expression.

"I never imagined that Master would fall to such a state. Husband, we must rescue Huanglong Zhenren."

Lin Che gently kissed Li Muwan's cherry lips and softly said: "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue Master."

"Anyone who harmed Master deserves to die. If Master suffers any misfortune, I don't mind making the entire Cultivation Alliance perish with him!"
