Deep into the night, Jianchen's residence finally quieted down. Little Fatty and the others all left, returning to their rooms to rest. Only Jianchen and a few female servants remained in the large room, cleaning up the table.
Jianchen made his way outside and arrived on the roof with a gentle leap. Afterward, he lay on the roof and stared at the pitch-black sky. His deep eyes seemed to be able to pierce through space, allowing him to see the silver-white divine hall hovering in outer space from far away.
You Yue was not in Changyang Prefecture. She had entered the Bright Moon Divine Hall soon after returning to Changyang Prefecture with Jianchen. Afterward, she was taken to outer space to absorb the essence of the moon to cultivate.
After becoming the disciple of Fairy Haoyue, You Yue's passion for cultivation reached an unprecedented level. She worked even harder than before. All she wanted to do was increase her strength as quickly as possible so that she could do a few more things for Jianchen and share some of the pressure with Jianchen.
Jianchen lay on the roof as he stared at the pitch-black sky in a daze. A sliver of confusion appeared on his face as he murmured, "Why did Fairy Haoyue take You Yue as a disciple? You Yue's talent may be impressive, but it's only limited to a small country like the Kingdom of Gesun. It's nothing special on the Tian Yuan Continent. There are countless prodigies of great talent on the continent, and their talent is far greater than You Yue's. Why didn't Fairy Haoyue take them as disciples? " Now that he had calmed down, Jianchen immediately thought of many things. Among them, the matter of Fairy Haoyue taking You Yue as a disciple puzzled him the most.
"I don't think Fairy Haoyue taking You Yue as a disciple is as simple as it seems. Fairy Haoyue probably has other intentions," Jianchen murmured as he sank into his thoughts.
Suddenly, Jianchen's eyes narrowed. He immediately stopped murmuring and saw a black figure leap onto the roof. The figure stepped on the tiles gently as he slowly made his way toward Jianchen.
Jianchen did not stand up. He continued to lie on the roof, using his hands as a pillow as he stared at the pitch-black sky.
The black figure came to Jian Chen's side and stood still. He then copied Jian Chen and laid down on the roof. His movements caused the tiles on the roof to crackle. He said, "Fourth brother, it's already so late. Why haven't you slept yet?"
Jianchen turned his head and looked at the black figure. He smiled, "Brother, aren't you awake as well? Sleeping right now is basically a waste of time for me."
"Sigh, yeah. Brother, you've already become a supreme expert on par with the Holy Emperor. Even with the entire continent in perspective, you're a supreme expert. You really don't need to sleep to recover after reaching such a level of strength," Changyang Ke gently sighed. His face was filled with sorrow.
"Brother, have you been well in the past few years?" Jianchen asked. Although Changyang Ke had opposed him in almost every aspect in the past, that was only when they were children. Jianchen had stopped fussing about it long ago. He treated it as a child messing around.
"Sigh, brother, you, big brother, and second sister are all famous people. You're either supreme experts who rule over an entire region or geniuses who are highly valued by peak organizations. Only your third brother is still unknown, still stuck at Great Saint Master. Who knows how long it'll take for him to break through to Earth Saint Master. Do you think your third brother has been well these past few years?" Changyang Ke gently sighed as he became gloomy.
Jianchen remained silent. Changyang Ke's talent for cultivation was indeed nothing special. He was still stuck as a Great Saint Master despite the great efforts of the clan. His rate of progress was indeed rather slow.
Changyang Ke suddenly sat up and stared at Jianchen hopefully. He said, "Brother, you're already a great person who reigns over a region. I know you're extremely powerful, so can you help me? I don't want to waste my time like this. I don't want to embarrass big brother, sister, and brother." Changyang Ke's voice was filled with pleading. He had already mustered up a lot of courage to say that.
Jian Chen slowly sat up and said, "Third brother, I still have a few heavenly resources on me. Once I go to Flame City tomorrow morning, I'll get the alchemists there to refine them into pills. They can change your constitution a little. Although the system can be changed with heavenly materials and earthly treasures, hard work is the key to determining future success. "
"Brother, thank you. I will definitely work even harder in the future …" Changyang Ke was so excited that he could not control himself. He seemed to have seen a sliver of light in the darkness, a glimmer of hope for the future.
The next morning, Jianchen left Yang Ling in Changyang Prefecture and went to Flame City with Ruijin.
Currently, Flame City was even more bustling than before. Mercenaries streamed in and out of the city gates, as well as quite a few merchants who had come to Flame City for employment.
Although the Flame Mercenaries had suffered a great setback and almost collapsed, Jianchen's fame was just too great. Coupled with the fact that he was the captain, the Flame Mercenaries were reorganized extremely quickly. In less than a month, not only had the Flame Mercenaries returned to their peak condition, but they had become even more powerful than before. There were even a few Saint Rulers who came to join the Flame Mercenaries.
The current Flame Mercenaries were already more powerful than many hermit clans. Coupled with Jianchen, who had once killed the Holy Emperor, the Flame Mercenaries were no weaker than ancient clans. They had become one of the few peak mercenary groups on the Tian Yuan Continent and were renowned across the continent.
The banner of the Flame Mercenaries had basically become a life-saving talisman on the Tian Yuan Continent. This was because wherever the banner passed by, no one, be it bandits or people from large clans, would dare to offend it. They would all politely make way for it.
As a result, when the Flame Mercenaries carried out escort missions, everything was smooth sailing. They would only come across some ignorant magical beasts from time to time, resulting in some bloodshed. As a result, more and more merchants were willing to hire the Flame Mercenaries.
Jianchen hovered a thousand meters in the air as he looked at the bustling city below with a gratified smile. However, when his gaze landed on the very center of the city, his eyes immediately narrowed and his face became rather ugly.
At the center of the city, a huge stone statue that was over 300 meters tall stood there. It gave off an aura that looked down on the world as it gazed into the distance. It was like a king had descended, mighty and extraordinary.
The person depicted on the statue was actually Jianchen. Moreover, it was extremely life-like, as if it was a real person.
Jianchen's face sank slightly. He took a few steps in the air and arrived above the statue in a few flashes. He directly struck the statue with his hand, and with a violent boom, the entire statue was pulverized by Jianchen's strike. It was reduced to a pile of dust that fell from the sky.
He had actually destroyed his own statue with his own hands!
The status of the statue in Flame City was irreplaceable because he was a legend on the Tian Yuan Continent. He was a legend on the Tian Yuan Continent. At the same time, he was a supreme expert on par with the Holy Emperor, the spiritual leader of the Flame Mercenaries, Jianchen.
The destruction of the statue immediately attracted the attention of all the people in the vicinity, and when they saw what they respected the most.
When they saw the statue of their most revered captain being destroyed, all of them immediately fell into an uproar. Powerful killing intent and fury immediately rose up like a roaring fire.
"The captain's statue has been destroyed. Someone has destroyed the captain's statue …"
"Which bastard did this? How dare he destroy our captain's statue. I'll cut him up personally …"
"How dare he destroy our captain's statue? No matter who he is, I'll cut him into a thousand pieces …"
…
All the mercenaries were thrown into an uproar when they saw the statue being destroyed. They all gnashed their teeth as their eyes burned with hatred.
The destruction of Jianchen's statue was like the death of their parents. It was an unforgivable crime.
