Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

The moon hung in the mid-sky, and the surroundings were eerily silent, with only a few sleepless birds singing mournful tunes.

Chen Tian stood motionless, gazing into the distance, his eyes flashing rapidly, lost in thought.

"Whoosh… whoosh…"

The sound of footsteps crushing through the grass.

Someone was approaching Chen Tian.

Chen Tian remained still, coldly staring into the dark corner.

Finally, a blurry figure emerged from the shadows, gradually approaching Chen Tian.

As the distance closed, Chen Tian slowly made out his appearance.

It was a young man in his twenties, dressed in the attire of the Immortal Feather Sect, indicating he was one of them.

The pure white moonlight spilled down, gradually dispelling the last layer of haze from the man's face.

Chen Tian finally saw his face clearly, and was immediately surprised, exclaiming softly, "Senior Brother Lin Chen, is that you?"

It was Lin Chen!

"Haha, Junior Brother Chen Tian, I've come to congratulate you on your meritorious service," Lin Chen said, walking up to Chen Tian, revealing his hearty smile.

Lin Chen's demeanor was as refined and gentle as ever!

"Meritorious service?" But upon hearing this, Chen Tian's expression showed slight surprise, and after frowning, he asked with confusion, "May I ask, Senior Brother, what meritorious service have I performed?"

"Junior Brother doesn't know yet?" Lin Chen said slowly, walking towards Pan Xingyu's corpse, "Actually, tonight, First Seat Lan Wu joined forces with the people from Hundred Flowers Valley to rebel. They attacked the Glazed Peak, and the situation is precarious."

"Oh, such a thing happened?" Chen Tian seemed shocked by these words, and quickly asked with a surprised expression, "What happened then?"

But Chen Tian shook his head at this time, and said, "Senior Brother Lin Chen, what are you talking about? Pan Xingyu was killed by your sword. If we are to talk about merit, it should be recorded on your account. I am ashamed to accept it."

"Haha, Junior Brother Chen Tian, you are truly an honest man," Lin Chen laughed and continued, "If you hadn't seriously injured him before, how could I have killed him so easily? I'm just gilding the lily. The great achievement should still be recorded on your account, Junior Brother. Okay, quickly come with me back to the sect to receive the reward."

As he spoke, Lin Chen reached out a hand to pull Chen Tian's arm.

However, upon seeing this, Chen Tian immediately took a step back, avoiding it.

"Junior Brother Chen Tian? What do you mean by this?" Seeing Chen Tian dodge, Lin Chen's expression couldn't help but turn cold, and his voice also lowered.

Chen Tian shook his head, and said quite respectfully, "Senior Brother, you misunderstood. It's not that I don't want to go back with you, Senior Brother, but before that, I have a few questions I want to ask Senior Brother. I wonder if I may?"

Hearing that this was Chen Tian's intention, a gentle smile appeared on Lin Chen's face again. After nodding, he said, "Hey, Junior Brother, we are all our own people, why be so polite? If you have any questions, just ask. Senior Brother, I will definitely answer everything I know."

"Then thank you, Senior Brother," Chen Tian bowed deeply, and slowly opened his mouth, "The first question, according to your meaning, because of Lan Wu's fault, the sect is now vigorously arresting the disciples of Ruosong Branch, but I also belong to Ruosong Branch, so after I go back, will I have the same fate as Pan Xingyu?"

Chen Tian glanced at Pan Xingyu's head, which was being held in Lin Chen's hand, and a strange look flashed across his face.

But at this time, Lin Chen laughed loudly, "Junior Brother, you are overthinking. Have you forgotten? The Sect Master has already assigned you to the Glazed Branch, so you can just go back with me boldly and don't be afraid."

"Oh, then if I am safe, but Senior Brother, you are the chief disciple of Lan Wu, so could it be that you are also on the side of the rebellion, and then use flowery words to lure me back, and then kill me?"

At this time, Chen Tian seemed to have thought of something, and a look of vigilance appeared on his face, and he took another step back.

And looking at Chen Tian's cautious appearance, Lin Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chen Tian's vigilance to be so high. After thinking for a while, Lin Chen shook his head, and continued to smile bitterly, "Hey, Junior Brother, you really misunderstood me. Although I am helping Lan Wu, my real identity is actually the Sect Master's personal disciple. This time Lan Wu rebelled, and I was the first to inform the Sect Master. If you still don't believe me, then just come back with me. We can confront each other at the Sect Master's place."

As he spoke, Lin Chen took a big step in Chen Tian's direction. Because he walked too quickly, the head of Pan Xingyu, which was being held in his hand, swayed violently, and drops of blood dripped down.

However, after seeing Lin Chen suddenly press closer, Chen Tian's body was light and he took another big step back, always maintaining a certain safe distance from him.

At this time, Lin Chen seemed to have finally lost all patience, and the smiling face he originally had suddenly turned gloomy. He stared at Chen Tian and asked coldly, "Junior Brother, what do you mean by being so wary of me?"

"It's nothing," Chen Tian smiled and shook his head, and said, "Senior Brother Lin Chen, I just have one last question I want to ask you. As long as you answer me, then I will immediately go back to the sect with you."

"Huff… so that's how it is. Junior Brother, why didn't you say so earlier? Alright, what's the question? Just ask," Hearing Chen Tian's words, Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief, and said quite generously.

"What I want to ask is…"

Chen Tian paused, slowly reaching his hand into the clothes on his chest.

"What?" Lin Chen tilted his ear to listen.

Chen Tian's expression suddenly turned cold, and his voice became low, "What I want to ask is, where did you kidnap Xiaolong to!"

After saying that, Chen Tian quickly pulled out the hand he had put into his clothes, which was the Beast Summoning Talisman.

Chen Tian did not hesitate, and activated the incantation the moment he took out the Beast Summoning Talisman.

Immediately, the enormous Sky Soaring Eagle appeared from the talisman, its eyes flashing with red light, coldly glaring at Lin Chen, looking as if it was about to attack.

And seeing this sudden change, the smile on Lin Chen's face instantly froze, a trace of ferocity appeared in his eyes, and he asked in a森然 tone, "Interesting, when did you start suspecting me?"
