On the second floor, light footsteps could be heard.
The footsteps were very soft. They sounded like the footsteps of a girl, and that was indeed the case.
Lu Yao walked down the stairs with a dog beside her.
Looking at Lu Yao walking down the stairs, Chen Heng turned and looked at her.
Today, Lu Yao was wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt, which looked quite slim. However, there were wounds on her arms, legs, and other places.
It seemed that she had been injured before.
Beside her, Ye appeared in the form of a little white dog. However, he also looked a little listless, as if he was in low spirits.
Compared to the injuries on Lu Yao's body, Ye's injuries were much more subtle. It was even more so after turning into a dog. It was basically impossible to be discovered.
Therefore, from the outside, one could only see that Ye's mental state was a little sluggish, and nothing else could be seen.
Of course, that was for ordinary people.
For Chen Heng, he could immediately tell what was going on with Ye and Lu Yao.
"Are they still not healed?"
Looking at Lu Yao and Lu Yao and sensing their injuries, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he inwardly shook his head.
It seemed that Chen Heng had overestimated Ye's skill as a King's Aide.
She had taken so long to recover from such minor injuries, and she had not even fully recovered.
From this, it seemed that Ye was not very strong.
It was possible that she was not even as strong as Chen Heng.
"How did you get injured?"
Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, but on the surface, his expression was very calm. He only looked at Lu Yao in confusion as he asked softly.
Being stared at by Chen Heng, Lu Yao lowered her head and felt a bit guilty. After a while, she said softly, "I was playing outside and got into an accident."
She cautiously told Chen Heng the reason she had told the others.
As she spoke, she felt quite nervous, worried that Chen Heng would notice something.
After all, the reason she had given would be acceptable to ordinary people, but to an expert like Chen Heng, he would feel that something was off.
Fortunately, hearing Lu Yao's words, Chen Heng only frowned and did not say anything, evidently accepting her reason.
"It's been quite chaotic recently. If there's nothing important, try not to go out."
Chen Heng sat on the sofa and looked at Lu Yao as he spoke softly.
"Alright."
Lu Yao nodded seriously. Only then did she let go of the apprehension in her heart.
Then, the dishes on the side were also prepared.
At home, Chen Heng ate with Lu Yao and the others before preparing to leave.
"Leaving so soon?"
Standing there, Lu Yao looked at Chen Heng, who was packing his things and preparing to leave, and felt quite surprised, "You're not going to stay for a few more days?"
"There's no other way."
Standing in front of Lu Yao, Chen Heng shook his head and said softly, "There are many things I need to take care of, so I can't leave for now."
"I came back this time just to see you guys."
He said.
Strictly speaking, Chen Heng was not lying.
He had been very busy recently.
The Guardian's work was secondary.
The focus was on other aspects.
As the time for the five Knights to descend drew closer and closer, the sense of crisis within Chen Heng became greater and greater. As such, he had to speed up some things in order to avoid anything unexpected happening.
As such, during this period of time, Chen Heng had been extremely busy.
He dealt with the subdued beasts, his strength going through changes, the purification of his massacre power …
All of these things consumed a lot of time, and Chen Heng had to invest a lot of time in order to complete them.
It was because of this that Chen Heng had been so busy recently that he did not even have time to rest.
However …
Chen Heng was incredibly busy because of the arrival of the five Knights.
However, as one of the main characters, Lu Yao did not know what was going on and did not know what to do.
It seemed that she did not know anything about her current situation and the danger she was in.
That was not necessarily the case.
It was just that she did not know how serious this was.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head.
Perhaps this was the main character.
No matter how much trouble they caused or how much danger they were in, they would always be like this.
Moreover, because this type of people had the Mandate of Heaven, even if they were in such a state, they would not die. Under the protection of the Mandate of Heaven, they would be able to avert disaster and even obtain a blessing in disguise.
It was a pity that the people around them were not so lucky.
Sooner or later, they would all be burdened to death.
This was just like the original body, as well as the original body's parents.
In the original trajectory of fate, the previous owner of this body had been ruined by Lu Yao. His bright future was gone, and he had even embarked on a path of no return. In the end, it was very likely that he would die at Lu Yao's hands, becoming a stepping stone for her to evolve further.
As for the original body's parents, the original trajectory of fate did not mention them.
However, from how Chen Heng saw it, they most likely would not have had a good ending.
Thinking to this point, he could not help but turn around and glance at Lu Yao before leaving.
Lu Yao silently stood there, watching Chen Heng's figure disappear.
After a while, she left the room and returned to her own room.
"Big brother seemed to be very busy …"
After returning to her room, Lu Yao thought back to Chen Heng's figure and could not help but think to herself.
From what she remembered, Chen Heng had always been very busy.
No matter if it was in the past or now, it was always like this.
Even though she did not know why, she was already used to it.
"Your Majesty, your next evolution is about to begin."
Ye's voice rang out from the side, reminding him softly.
"I understand."
Standing there and listening to Ye's words, Lu Yao nodded, indicating that she understood.
It had been a month since the last metamorphosis.
Her next metamorphosis was about to begin.
Of course, compared to last time, Lu Yao was confident that she would not be discovered, so she did not leave her home.
Faint golden light flashed.
In Lu Yao's eyes, a faint golden light flashed across and appeared.
At a glance, it was incredibly dazzling, making her look like a god.
Following this, all of the abnormal signs disappeared.
Lu Yao returned to her bed and fell into a deep sleep.
On her forehead, a golden mark appeared, interweaving to form a brand new scene.
However, it didn't take long for the golden mark to vanish and vanish.
All of the abnormalities on Lu Yao's body had disappeared. At this moment, she was like an ordinary girl, appearing extremely calm as she slept on the bed.
.....
Time passed slowly, and before anyone knew it, another two months had passed.
During these two months, everything had been quite peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
From the looks of it, the Roundtable Society didn't seem to be doing anything.
Of course, this was just on the surface.
There were still many changes happening in the shadows.
Vaguely, there seemed to be a powerful force causing mischief within, affecting something.
However, Chen Heng did not care about any of this.
At this moment, his cultivation had also progressed to a new level.
"I've already reached such a level?"
Standing there by himself, Chen Heng looked around.
Right now, he was standing on a wide square by himself.
The surroundings were quite spacious, and there was no one else around. It was just Chen Heng standing there by himself.
In this space, he seemed to be the center of the world, and he held absolute power.
After a moment, Chen Heng slowly closed his eyes.
The light of the world gradually faded from his eyes, and darkness once again covered his eyes.
At that moment, everything around him seemed to change.
His True Spirit's light flashed, covering the surroundings, and there seemed to be a new aura covering this space.
A light breeze blew, and the ground trembled. In the distance, there were the cries of insects, as well as the sounds of objects moving.
Chen Heng could sense these things that ordinary people could not sense more and more clearly.
This also meant that his strength had reached a whole new level.
Peak Stage 4.
Right now, Chen Heng's strength had reached the peak of Stage 4.
The Peak of the Fourth Order didn't sound like much.
However, in actuality, it was already quite incredible.
After all, from the start until now, Chen Heng had only stepped onto this world's path of cultivation for one or two years.
It had been less than four months since he had advanced to the Type 4 realm.
If others knew about such a terrifying speed, they would most likely be shocked and filled with disbelief.
However, this was the truth.
Standing where he was, Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
In his mind, all of the abnormal signs disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
He silently stood there and looked around, feeling the howling of the heavens and earth.
"I'm still a bit off …"
Standing there by himself, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he sensed the power in his body.
If he wanted to, he could have reached peak Stage 4 strength long ago.
The reason why he had only broken through now was because he wanted to reach a higher level in one go.
It was just that he was still a bit off.
The fifth grade of this world seemed to be the same as the other worlds. It was a brand new threshold, a completely new transformation.
As such, it was not so easy to break through.
Of course, the reason why Chen Heng could accumulate enough power to reach peak Stage 4 and even break through to Stage 5 so quickly was because of various fortuitous encounters.
The Nameless Refining Technique from the Nameless Legacy was one of them.
This tempering technique could increase one's Mind Energy and True Spirit Energy, and with Chen Heng's powerful True Spirit, his cultivation speed would become much faster.
This was one of the reasons.
The other was Olly, who Chen Heng had killed.
During that battle, Chen Heng had not only killed a Stage 4 expert, but he had also killed Olly, a Stage 5 expert.
This Stage 5 expert had provided Chen Heng with a large amount of power.
Even though the Massacre Divinity allowed one to obtain power by killing, the more powerful the target and the nobler the bloodline, the more power one would obtain.
The power from killing Olly had greatly increased Chen Heng's strength, allowing him to advance for a long time.
There was also a final reason.
During this period of time, Wang Zhong's Seed of Slaughter had provided Chen Heng with a large amount of power.
Before, Wang Zhong had provided Chen Heng with a sizable amount of Slaughter Energy.
Over the past few months, it was as if Wang Zhong had turned on cheats, and the amount of killing power he gave Chen Heng was many times greater than before.
It was because of this excessive supply of slaughtering energy that Chen Heng had been able to grow so quickly and reach his current level.
After all, compared to the people of this world, it was much easier for Chen Heng to advance.
Based on his previous level, before he reached the level of his main body, he only needed to accumulate enough to quickly reach the corresponding level. He did not need to break through bottlenecks like others to complete the corresponding breakthrough.
Comparatively speaking, his speed was much faster.
Of course, even though he was fast, he still had to pay attention to the basics.
Chen Heng's speed was something that shocked even Chen Heng.
However, this was not bad.
Under the current circumstances, he needed strength the most.
Every bit of strength that Chen Heng gained meant that he would be safer in the future.
After standing there for a while, many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind before he turned and prepared to leave.
However, at that moment, he suddenly sensed something and silently looked up at the sky.
As he looked on, the scene in the sky appeared.
Above the blue sky, there were white clouds floating about, looking incredibly beautiful.
Everything seemed to be very calm, and there was nothing special about it. It seemed very normal.
However, was this really the case?
Chen Heng felt that this was not necessarily the case.
He could sense a very powerful aura coming from the distance.
At first, he could only sense that aura, but as time passed, it became clearer and clearer.
In the end, when this aura reached a certain level, abnormal signs appeared in the sky.
A crimson light appeared.
In mid-air, a crimson radiance appeared. It was as if another crimson sun had appeared in the sky.
He appeared in the sky, rushed straight to the other side, and then landed in an unknown location.
At that moment, the entire world fell silent.
It was incredibly vast and terrifying, as if a god had descended from the heavens.
There were no clouds in the sky, and all of the wind and clouds dissipated. They were affected by that aura and directly pulled away.
At that moment, the entire star seemed to be affected by that inexplicable aura. It began to tremble inexplicably, and even its rotation seemed to have stopped.
This terrifying scene continued for a long time.
Only after half an hour did the abnormal signs completely disappear.
However, at this moment, the people on this planet had already realized something.
A terrifying expert had arrived from beyond the stars, descending upon this star.
As for that terrifying aura …
"The Scarlet Knight …"
Standing there, Chen Heng looked at the direction in which the Scarlet Knight had fallen, his expression incredibly serious, "Is he going to descend now?"
Chen Heng was not unfamiliar with the Scarlet Knight.
This was because in the original trajectory of fate, the one who had descended on the Qica Star and forced Lu Yao to leave, forcing her to walk the starry sky path was also this person.
He was one of the five Knights of the Round Table, and he was one of the peak experts in this world.
It was just that it should have taken a while for the five high and mighty knights to descend upon this world.
But now, they had arrived a few months earlier.
"Is this the effect of me killing Olly …"
In that moment, Chen Heng thought to himself.
Unlike the original trajectory, he had killed Olly early in this experience. Even though he had stopped the Round Table Society's actions on Qica Star, he had undoubtedly alerted the Round Table Society and alerted them.
Perhaps this was the reason why the Scarlet Knight had descended early.
Standing there, Chen Heng quickly thought of the crux of the matter.
"Hah, looks like the final clash is about to begin."
Standing there, Chen Heng thought for a moment before smiling.
The Scarlet Knight had descended early; this was bad news for Chen Heng.
If it had been a few more months, Chen Heng would have been able to reach Stage 5.
With the Ancient Battle Armor's power, even though he might not have been able to resist, it would have been possible.
However, things were a bit uncertain now.
However, it did not matter.
Since the enemy had arrived, all he had to do was fight.
At most, he would just die.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng smiled before turning and leaving this region.
In the distance, more and more people reacted.
After the initial shock and panic, everyone realized what had happened.
"How is this possible? How is this possible?! "
On the Qica Star, the Qica Federation's people were all panicking.
As for the crimson meteor that had fallen on Chica Planet, they naturally knew what it was.
However, it was because they understood that they felt fear and unease.
After all, it was one of the Five Knights, the Scarlet Knight.
Different from Olly and Ariel, the Scarlet Knight truly had the right to look down on the Qica Federation.
The Chica Federation did indeed possess considerable strength. However, in the face of the Roundtable Assembly, this bit of strength didn't make much of a difference.
They had been able to go against Olly and Ariel, but that did not mean they could do the same to the Scarlet Knight.
To put it bluntly, if the Scarlet Knight wanted to, even if she destroyed the Qica Star, no one would dare to say anything.
At the very most, he would only be able to denounce them and say a few superficial words. It was completely useless.
Facing the descent of such a killing god, no one would not feel panicked.
