The news of the three Overgods from the Heavenly Demon Religion that surrounded the Swordseeking province spread through the entire Divine Kingdom of Pingtian in the shortest amount of time possible. It immediately caused a great uproar in the divine kingdom. All the clans with Overgods were shocked. They all guessed who this person was, since he was bold enough to kill people from the Heavenly Demon Religion.
Moreover, the people he had killed were three Overgods.
Even to a large organisation like the Heavenly Demon Religion, Overgods were not insignificant figures. They possessed some status.
Not only did the deaths of the three Overgods from the Empyrean Demon Cult cause an uproar in the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, but it even reached the nearby divine kingdoms in an extremely short amount of time. No matter who it was, they were all stunned by the news.
On one hand, they admired the person's courage, and on the other hand, they were amazed by the person's strength. He had actually killed three Overgods in such a short amount of time.
Even many late Overgods might not be able to achieve something like that.
"He killed three Overgods in just a few seconds, and one of them was a mid Overgod. Was the person who did it the Divine King …"
"That's just a rumor. Perhaps the three Overgods from the Heavenly Demon Religion really were killed by a single person, but it's definitely not as exaggerated as the rumor, where the battle ended in just a few seconds. It's probably exaggerated by the rumor …"
Discussions like that rang out everywhere. Basically all the people above the ninth layer believed that the rumor had been exaggerated, while the people who had reached the first layer doubted it.
"Jian Chen's strength has actually reached such a level. It's unbelievable." It's truly unbelievable, "the commander of the Royal Divine Army, Xuan Dou, sighed in amazement as he stood in the study of the general's estate.
He could not help but think of the first time he had met Jianchen. Back then, he had personally witnessed Jianchen defeat Wayner Yan. He was only a mid Overgod.
The second time they met, it had only been a few tens of years, but Jianchen already possessed the strength to fight Yang Kai, and the speed at which his strength improved caused him to be flabbergasted.
But now, Jianchen had actually killed three overgods of the Heavenly Demon Religion in such a short amount of time. His strength was even greater than when he fought Yang Kai.
"Could it be that Jianchen's strength is growing all the time? If this continues, it won't be long before he can enter the ranks of the Divine King." Xuan Dou sighed emotionally. He didn't believe the rumors. Instead, he had planted people outside Swordseek Province who were constantly in control of the situation.
Thus, even if he didn't know everything that happened in Swordsseeking County, he was very close.
"The Tianyuan family is not to be trifled with in the future …"
At the same time, the ancestors of a few Overgod organisations in the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian warned their subordinates sternly. They feared Jianchen to the extreme.
In the Yang family, the ancestor of the Yang family, Yang Kai, was heavily injured after his battle with Jianchen. He did not recover as quickly as Jianchen. Even after ingesting healing pills, he still needed some time to make a full recovery.
At this moment, when Yang Kai heard that Jianchen had killed three Overgods of the Heavenly Demon Religion, he immediately sneered. He said sternly, "How can the people of the Heavenly Demon Religion be killed so easily? Moreover, they're three Overgods. The Heavenly Demon Religion will never let this matter rest."
"Moreover, this matter is connected to a vice-leader of the Heavenly Demon Religion to a certain degree. Jianchen, you've really done it now. It'll be difficult for you to avoid death. "
Yang Kai took pleasure in Yang Kai's misfortune.
Jianchen had already returned to the Tianyuan family in the Dong 'an province.
At this moment, the discussion hall of the Tianyuan family had been enveloped by a barrier and formation. Not only did it cut off the sounds inside, but it also cut off the senses of the soul from the outside world.
Jianchen sat on the patriarch's throne in luxurious white robes in the discussion hall very casually. Below him sat over twenty people of various ages. The youngest seemed to be around fourteen or fifteen. They were still underage. The older ones had a head of silver hair and hunched backs. They were in their twilight years.
These people were the upper echelon of the Tianyuan family. All of them were Gods.
The youngest among them was a white-robed young man. His face was cold, and his eyes shone brightly. He gave off a vague presence of slaughter.
Even though there was still a trace of immaturity on his face that had yet to be removed, sitting there, he caused many people present to cast fearful gazes at him.
During the years that Jianchen had been gone, the Tianyuan family had rapidly strengthened. Many Gods had joined the Tianyuan family out of admiration, becoming elders. This was why the Tianyuan family possessed so many Gods today.
Jian Chen glanced down and in the end, his gaze landed on the young man who only seemed to be fourteen or fifteen years old. He could not help but smile. He felt gratified.
This was because the young man in white was the White Tiger. He had become a God now.
Even though he was only an early God, a few of the mid Gods present were rather fearful of him.
Aside from them, Xi Yu, Mo Ling, Ando Fu, and a few Gods from the Nanyun clan, one of the three great clans of the Dong 'an province, were present as well.
The Nanyun clan had completely become a part of the Tianyuan family now. Originally, they had joined the Tianyuan family in hopes of being able to rely on an Overgod and find a powerful backer.
However, they had indeed benefited greatly after joining the Tianyuan family. They had benefited greatly. All of the cultivation methods they practised were Overgod level cultivation methods that Jianchen had left behind.
"I believe everyone knows that the three Overgods of the Heavenly Demon Religion have been killed. The Tianyuan family might not be peaceful in the future. I've gathered everyone here today to give you a choice. You can decide whether you want to stay or leave. If you want to leave, I won't stop you," Jianchen said sternly.
A few of the elders present hesitated. In the end, a few of them chose to leave, leaving the Tianyuan family.
And these Celestial Deity Realm elders that left actually accounted for more than half of the total number.
However, Nanyun Tong and the others chose to stay without any hesitation at all. They were very confident in Jianchen. They knew that Jianchen would definitely find a way to survive this crisis.
Moreover, the Tianyuan family had treated them like one of their own. They had gradually developed a sense of belonging with the Tianyuan family. Now that the clan was in danger, it was time for them to demonstrate their loyalty.
Mo Ling and Ando Fu also chose to stay without any hesitation. To the two of them, perhaps their feelings for the Tianyuan family were even deeper than Jianchen's feelings for them.
This was because Jianchen rarely took care of things. Basically, every single brick, tile, and tree here had been constructed under the two of them.
This was equivalent to a brand new home to them.
Jianchen's expression did not change at all when he saw that there were only ten Gods left apart from the White Tiger. He said, "Alright. Since you're not planning to leave and would rather die with the Tianyuan family, I, Jianchen, promise you that if we can survive this crisis successfully, I will definitely not mistreat you in the future."
"Xi Yu, have you collected the materials I asked you to?" Jianchen looked at Xi Yu.
Xi Yu took out a Space Ring and passed it to Jianchen. She said, "Patriarch, I've gathered all the materials that can be collected from the elders. They're all in this Space Ring. Moreover, we've sent some people to the other provincial cities to collect them as well. I believe a second batch of materials will arrive soon. "
