The Divine Flame Alliance’s army arrived at Edgeless Sky Mountain Range in less than half an hour and completely routed several squads of the Red Soul Hall’s forces, causing them to flee in disarray.
After repelling the Red Soul Hall’s army, Lin Chen did not order a pursuit.
Clearly, the Red Soul Hall troops present were not the entirety of the forces attacking the Divine Flame Sect.
The army led by Lin Chen had undertaken a long march day and night, and their condition was not ideal. Hence, their current priority was to repel the enemy and then to rest and recuperate their strength and energy.
At this moment, the reinforcements from the Formation Sect, upon witnessing the valiant performance of Lin Chen and his comrades, thought they were reinforcements from somewhere else, with such astonishing combat power that they drove the Red Soul Hall’s army into a rout.
However, as they approached to welcome them, they realized that this army was actually the Divine Flame Alliance’s forces, which included members of their own Formation Sect.
When they recognized the person leading the army as Lin Chen, there were mixed reactions amongst the Formation Sect’s troops. Some were elated, while others showed concern—those with furrowed brows were the Ten Great True Disciples Ye Wenhao and Qing Wanrong, who had past grievances with Lin Chen.
At this moment, the two women stared at Lin Chen, their faces showing disbelief.
They could have never imagined that Lin Chen would actually return alive from Luoyun Mountain Range. Hadn’t the Sect’s message said that there was a massive army of the Dark Demon Race appearing there, and the situation was extremely dire—could it be that those troops were all but annihilated?
Now, not only was Lin Chen unharmed, he had even trained such a powerful army.
What was even more critical was that the armies of other Sects were actually willing to follow Lin Chen’s command and showed him an unusual amount of respect.
One should know that even powerful individuals like Hao Huo in the Nirvana Realm had been defeated by the combined forces of this army, not to mention those of them in the Half-step Nirvana Realm.
If Lin Chen had any intention of taking revenge on these two at this moment, with just one command, this army could slay them, and they would have absolutely no power to resist.
As for the Formation Sect’s army, it’s not even a question of whether they would stand up for these two Great True Disciples—in fact, they might not even be a match for this combined force of the Divine Flame Alliance.
At this time, Liu Qingxia hurried towards the Divine Flame Alliance’s army, her heart brimming with joy.
She had never thought Elder Qing’s message would turn out to be true—that the army of the Divine Flame Alliance really had come to rescue the Divine Flame Sect under the leadership of Young Master Lin Chen.
As long as they could hold out until the army arrived, they would surely be able to turn the tide of the battle.
Initially, although Liu Qingxia had received the message, she did not pin her hopes on the army of the Divine Flame Alliance.
After all, she was somewhat aware of the situation in Luoyun Mountain Range.
She even doubted whether the Divine Flame Alliance’s army was fleeing from the pursuit of the Dark Demon Race’s army and seeking refuge at the Divine Flame Sect.
She was well aware of the strength of the Red Soul Hall’s army and knew that simply combining a larger force did not necessarily translate to a greater ability to fight back.
However, when the Divine Flame Alliance’s army arrived and in less than half an hour repelled the Red Soul Hall’s forces that had seemed unstoppable, Liu Qingxia’s heart filled with amazement and trust.
"Sect Master, we pay our respects!"
Yu Weilian and Yao Qinghe came before Liu Qingxia and offered their salutations.
They had not failed their mission Thankfully, they had persuaded Young Master Lin Chen to come to their rescue; otherwise, they might never have seen Liu Qingxia again.
"This time, we owe you a great debt."
Liu Qingxia originally only sent a message to them to survive well, for the future of the Divine Flame Sect lay in their hands. After all, Yu Weilian and Yao Qinghe were the most outstanding disciples of the Divine Flame Sect.
Unexpectedly, they had managed to persuade Lin Chen to come to their aid, which Elder Qing had already mentioned in the message to Liu Qingxia.
At this moment, Liu Qingxia approached Lin Chen to talk and merely express her thanks.
At the same time, Liu Qingxia had not anticipated that Young Master Lin Chen, whom Yu Weilian, Yao Qinghe, and Elder Qing spoke of, would be such a young and handsome man.
Even more crucial was the fact that Lin Chen’s cultivation was only at the First Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm.
With such modest cultivation, he was leading such a powerful army and making everyone follow his commands, something that aroused Liu Qingxia’s admiration for Lin Chen.
This young man must possess some exceptional means, The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Liu Qingxia looked at Lin Chen, her heart filled with gratitude. If it wasn’t for Lin Chen leading his army to their timely rescue, the Divine Flame Sect might no longer exist, and its disciples might have suffered unknown tortures at the hands of the demon cultivators of the Red Soul Hall.
Of course, Lian Ping from the Bodhi Hall had said that as long as the Divine Flame Sect submitted to the Bodhi Hall, they would offer assistance. However, Liu Qingxia would rather have everyone in the Divine Flame Sect die in battle than to see her disciples suffer the disgrace under Bodhi Hall.
Meanwhile, Lin Chen’s gaze fell upon Liu Qingxia as he began to scrutinize this woman famed to be the most beautiful in the Eastern Domain.
The woman before him was ageless in appearance, with a hint of seductive charm. Although she seemed to be no younger than Yu Weilian, it was her transcendent elegance and distinct allure that were indeed captivating.
No wonder so many men in the Eastern Domain were enamored with her; she truly lived up to the title of the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Domain.
Even Lin Chen, having seen his master, senior sisters, Zhao Rushi, as well as Yu Weilian and other beauties, could not help but feel a sense of astonishment in his heart upon gazing at Liu Qingxia.
However, as Lin Chen took a few extra looks at Liu Qingxia, he suddenly felt a pair of jade hands pinching his arm.
Lin Chen immediately felt a burst of pain, and though he was physically robust, it didn’t mean he was impervious to pain.
"What are you doing, acting crazy!"
Lin Chen turned his head and looked at Xia Wanxin, whose cheeks were puffed up with anger, feeling speechless, he then scolded.
"What do you mean, why? Your gaze at her was so intense, your eyes nearly fell out,"
Xia Wanxin rolled her eyes at Lin Chen and said crossly. Lin Chen’s look at Liu Qingxia had sparked intense jealousy in Xia Wanxin; she had never seen Lin Chen look at any woman with such an expression before.
Although Xia Wanxin had to admit that Liu Qingxia was slightly more beautiful than her, Yu Weilian, Yao Qinghe, Qiu Ya, and the other women, she refused to allow Lin Chen to be attracted to another woman.
Now, due to Xia Wanxin’s action, Lin Chen also calmed down somewhat, his gaze at Liu Qingxia no longer as intense, then he gave Liu Qingxia a slight bow.
"I was rude just now. I ask Sect Master Liu to forgive me."
