He Chuxun's admiration for Gu Lingyao was genuine. However, his sincerity was destined to be unrequited. That was because in Gu Lingyao's heart, there was only Xiao Chen.
He Chuxun had been pursuing Gu Lingyao fiercely ever since she joined Tianfeng Shengzong. As for Gu Lingyao, she had ignored him at the beginning, but now, she was scolding him angrily. This series of actions had driven He Chuxun completely crazy.
He Chuxun's eyes flashed with intense anger as he glared at Gu Lingyao and said coldly, "Gu Lingyao, you forced me to do this. How am I inferior to Xiao Chen? Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless. Beat him up."
He Chuxun's heart was filled with anger and jealousy. Gu Lingyao only had Xiao Chen in her heart. He Chuxun had completely given up. However, in his opinion, if he couldn't get the woman, Xiao Chen wouldn't be able to get it either.
He Chuxun roared angrily. Hearing this, the hundreds of Iron Sword Sect disciples behind him swarmed forward and beat up the Tianqi Sect disciples, including Gu Lingyao.
He Chuxun was completely deranged. This time, he didn't even let go of the woman he had always liked. However, facing the attack of the Iron Sword Sect disciples, Gu Lingyao naturally wouldn't allow herself to be captured without putting up a fight. However, with He Chuxun around, Gu Lingyao couldn't do anything alone.
Soon, many of the Tianqi Sect disciples were knocked to the ground one by one. He Chuxun even grabbed Gu Lingyao's neck and lifted her up.
He Chuxun looked at Gu Lingyao with an extremely cold gaze and said coldly, "Gu Lingyao, I, He Chuxun, am one of the top ten direct disciples. How am I inferior to Xiao Chen? Since I can't get you, then don't even think about getting Xiao Chen."
He Chuxun forcefully took Gu Lingyao away as he spoke. As for what he wanted to do, it was self-evident. He Chuxun, who was already in a state of madness, had almost lost his mind.
Seeing Gu Lingyao being taken away by force, the dozens of Tianqi Sect disciples at the side struggled to stand up. Unfortunately, every time they stood up, the Iron Sword Sect disciples would beat them down again.
They watched helplessly as Gu Lingyao was taken away by He Chuxun. At the same time, the Iron Sword Sect disciples also left after ruthlessly humiliating the Tianqi Sect disciples.
"Quick, quickly inform Senior Brother Xiao Chen …" One of the Tianqi Sect disciples, who was already powerless to stand up, said with difficulty.
Unaware of what was happening in the outside world, Xiao Chen persisted in the magma river for half a month. On this day, He Feng appeared on the shore of the magma river as scheduled. Seeing Xiao Chen still cultivating in the magma river, He Feng's eyes flashed with a strange glint.
Xiao Chen actually managed to hold on for half a month. It was worth noting that the pain of training with the real Fire of the Earthline was not something that ordinary people could withstand. However, Xiao Chen seemed to be completely fine with it.
He Feng seemed to understand why the Tianfeng Saint valued Xiao Chen so much. This little guy did indeed have an extraordinary side. However, the things that happened in the past half a month were really exciting. If this little guy came out of seclusion and found out about it, Tianfeng Shengzong would probably be in for another round of excitement.
He Feng and the Tianfeng Saint naturally knew about He Chuxun's actions in the past half a month. However, the Tianfeng Saint didn't intend to pay any attention to it. He even specifically told He Feng that if Xiao Chen came out of seclusion, he didn't have to pay any attention to this matter. In fact, as long as it didn't cause any serious consequences, the Law Enforcement Hall didn't have to do anything either.
The Tianfeng Saint's words undoubtedly meant that he wanted Xiao Chen to deal with this matter himself. It didn't matter even if Xiao Chen violated the sect's rules. As long as it didn't cause any serious consequences, the Law Enforcement Hall didn't have to do anything.
He Feng exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. He was also a little curious about what kind of commotion Xiao Chen would cause after he came out of seclusion.
As he thought about it, He Feng slowly stretched out his right hand. Then, a strong power of law forcefully separated the magma river and forcibly pulled Xiao Chen out of the magma river.
Half a month had passed and the power of the Heavenly Flame Sacred Fire Talisman was about to run out. Without the protection of the Heavenly Flame Sacred Fire Talisman, Xiao Chen would instantly be burned to ashes by the Earthvein Fire. Thus, whether he was willing or not, Xiao Chen's seclusion this time was over.
After forcefully pulling Xiao Chen out and bringing him to He Feng, Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes. A trace of helplessness flashed through his eyes as he said, "First elder, is it time?"
"It's time. Half a month has passed. You should leave, or the power of the Heavenly Flame Sacred Fire Talisman will disappear," He Feng nodded in response to Xiao Chen's words.
It was time to leave. Although Xiao Chen didn't want to come out of seclusion so soon, he had no choice. Without the Heavenly Flame Sacred Fire Talisman, he wouldn't be able to stay here for long. Moreover, the Heavenly Flame Sacred Fire Talisman was a Saint Tier talisman. He Feng was already very generous to give him one. Xiao Chen didn't want to be thick-skinned enough to ask He Feng for another one.
After all, the price of a Saint Tier talisman was absolutely shocking. It was at least several dozen times, or even a hundred times, more expensive than a Heaven Tier talisman.
Half a month of seclusion wasn't long, but there were many benefits.
First of all, Xiao Chen's cultivation base, which he had broken through because of the Way Matrix, had been completely stabilized. Even his own martial arts foundation had been refined under the tempering of the Earthline Fire.
The second was the Tempered Battle Body. Under the refinement of the Earthvein Fire Origin, the Tempered Battle Body had made great progress. Although it still hadn't reached the limit of the first layer, the Golden Armor Realm, it wasn't far from it.
In half a month, Xiao Chen's cultivation didn't improve at all. However, his strength was incomparable to before. If he were to fight against He Chuxun again, Xiao Chen was confident that he could defeat him, and not just tie with him.
To have improved so much in half a month, the Tianfeng Saint had indeed given Xiao Chen a great opportunity. Of course, Xiao Chen didn't know about this.
As if he could see the helplessness in Xiao Chen's heart, He Feng spoke up. "Alright, when it comes to cultivation, going too far is just as bad as not going far enough. You've already cultivated here for half a month, so it's time for you to take a break. If you continue to cultivate here, not only will it not do you any good, it might even cause a backlash from the Earthvein Fire. I'll take you to rest for a while, and it's not like you won't have a chance to cultivate here in the future. Let's go."
He Feng knew that Xiao Chen didn't want to leave, but half a month was already Xiao Chen's limit. Without waiting for Xiao Chen's reply, He Feng waved his hand, and the two of them immediately disappeared.
He Feng brought Xiao Chen back to the foot of Tianfeng Shengzong Mountain. After bowing to He Feng, Xiao Chen prepared to take his leave.
"Thank you, Great Elder. I'll take my leave now."
