I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Chapter 699: Chapter 383: Return and the Looming Dilemma

Spiritual Martial World.

Xuankong City.

The aura of a Martial God swept across the sky.

Once again, it incited the wild jubilation and veneration of the common people below.

But as always,

The Martial Gods did not linger; they headed straight for the Imperial City at the center.

“Aotian!”

“Aotian!”

As soon as Chen Sheng landed,

a wave of exclamations immediately filled his ears.

Hearing the news of Long Aotian’s rescue,

his family and intimate friends had long been waiting here.

However,

when they saw Long Aotian with a skewed skull and looking like a dead man, they collectively cried out and surged towards the group.

In an instant,

inside and outside,

Chen Sheng, who had just returned from the Broken Planet, was surrounded by a watertight crowd.

Seeing Chen Sheng’s expression grow more and more impatient,

Lie Yan, who had initially planned to carefully persuade them, swiftly raised his hand to quell the surrounding noise.

“Everyone, there is no need to worry.”

“Our young master has only suffered some minor flesh wounds, and they are not serious.”

“The King is waiting for us to enter the Grand Hall to report; please do not make it difficult for us.”

He had countless experiences dealing with such scenes.

He knew well that at this moment, these people only had eyes for the injured Long Aotian; no matter how much he tried to soothe them, it would be useless.

Only by mentioning the Spiritual Martial King

would they know to hold back.

And sure enough,

upon hearing the name of the Spiritual Martial King,

these people, no matter how anxious they were about Long Aotian, did not dare to obstruct any further.

Consequently,

Chen Sheng and others were able to enter the Imperial City smoothly, unimpeded, and reached the Grand Hall where the Spiritual Martial King was.

“Your Majesty,”

“We have returned without disgrace!”

As soon as Lie Yan and the others kneeled at the steps,

“Good, good, good!”

The Spiritual Martial King still sat upon the Dragon Throne.

Seeing Chen Sheng and the others, who had been sent to investigate, had indeed successfully brought back Long Aotian, joy instantly climbed his face.

In his excitement,

he even exclaimed ‘good’ three times in a row.

He immediately inquired about the group’s experiences, and Lie Yan narrated them one by one.

As for Chen Sheng,

he stood by quietly waiting.

What was interesting,

he had initially thought that upon hearing about him punching Qing He and slapping Long Aotian, the Spiritual Martial King would have some emotions.

After all,

you should consider the master before beating the dog.

Chen Sheng, on his way back, had also prepared to explain himself.

As long as the Spiritual Martial King wasn’t extremely foolish, he would understand Chen Sheng’s choice at the time.

Moreover,

able to use his own strength to expand the Spiritual Martial World to its current greatness, Chen Sheng thought that the Spiritual Martial King shouldn’t be that foolish.

However,

contrary to his expectations, Lie Yan directly spared him the effort of explaining.

In his narrative,

Qing He was obstructing their combat operations and nearly disrupted the entire plan.

Chen Sheng, unable to persuade her, had no choice but to take action.

And Long Aotian was deceived by the Resistance Army and unwilling to leave with them.

It was only because Chen Sheng saw that time was pressing that he acted out of necessity.

After a series of such descriptions,

Chen Sheng was left stunned.

Am I… that patient?

Why does it also sound a bit kind?

“Hahahaha.”

“It seems this mission owes much to our friend Chen Sheng.”

“Indeed, the joyful one does not misjudge people.”

“Your great kindness to the Spiritual Martial World, I hold in my heart.”

Whether the Spiritual Martial King believed it or not,

after listening to Lie Yan’s story, he laughed heartily.

The look he gave Chen Sheng was filled with unmistakable admiration.

Whether he truly believed it or not,

“You all have worked hard.”

“Take Aotian down to rest.”

“I have other important matters to discuss with our friend.”

After the report was finished,

the Spiritual Martial King gently waved his hand, signaling the Martial Gods to withdraw.

“Yes.”

As the sound of footsteps faded away,

soon,

only Chen Sheng and the Spiritual Martial King remained in the Grand Hall.

“Hehe.”

“My friend, there is no need to worry,”

said the Spiritual Martial King, seeing the still somewhat odd look on Chen Sheng’s face, and he chuckled.

“I do not care about the minor details along the way.”

“For me, it’s only the results that matter.”

There seemed to be a deeper meaning in his words.

Chen Sheng instantly showed a look of realization.

Indeed.

Whether it was Qing He or Long Aotian,

one a trusted confidant, the other a grandson,

the Spiritual Martial King naturally knew them both well.

Probably even a guess with one’s toes would reveal the true nature of events.

Similarly,

so did Lie Yan.

And yet he chose to speak well of Chen Sheng in the mission report,

thus indirectly telling the Spiritual Martial King about Chen Sheng’s value and the importance he played in the mission.

“The matter of the Pocket Universe is rather complicated,”

spoke the Spiritual Martial King.

“However, I had begun preparations before you set out on your journey.”

At that moment,

the Spiritual Martial King extended his palm.

Several points of light appeared within it.

“This is…”

Feeling the extraordinary power emanating from the points of light,

Chen Sheng’s eyes widened slightly, sensing his Energy Core near his heart trembling faintly.

From his perspective,

the space around seemed to be collapsing towards the center, where the points of light were.

“Indeed.”

“To create a Pocket Universe, one must use laws, Secret Arts, and unique tools, lacking any one of these will not do.”

“The good thing is that it doesn’t require my personal involvement.”

“Once I complete the preparations, you only need to bring it back to your universe to complete the making of a Pocket Universe.”

Hearing this,

even the always composed Chen Sheng couldn’t help but feel an inner excitement stir.

He was, of course, excited.

Because Chen Sheng was always very aware,

what he lacked was never any opportunities, cultivation techniques, or things like that.

With the Body of Breaking Limits, he already possessed infinite possibilities.

But since his first encounter with the Transcendent,

enemies have always been lurking nearby, causing him constant unrest.
