Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

This sudden apparition of blood-red light tinged with black was extremely eye-catching in Wang Chen's view.

It was hard to ignore.

Under the augmentation of the Prayer Heavenly Secrets Talisman's power, Wang Chen could be one hundred percent certain that this was his target.

Sand Tribe Locust!

Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chen immediately flew towards the locked-on location of the target.

After a few leaps and bounds, he landed in the inner courtyard of a large residence.

"Who's there?"

The estate, with its four extensive sections, was grand and magnificent, indicating that the owner was no ordinary person.

As soon as Wang Chen landed, he triggered the warning array set throughout the residence.

A series of agile figures quickly appeared around him.

At the same time, a deep and powerful aura enveloped Wang Chen.

A man with a dignified face flashed into view on the verandah in front of Wang Chen.

When the Purple Mansion cultivator saw Wang Chen's true face, he was momentarily stunned.

He hesitated for a moment before saluting with his hands: "I am Wei Chengzhi of the Wei Family, I have seen Heavenly Master Wang. May I ask what brings the Heavenly Master to my home?"

Strictly speaking, Wang Chen was trespassing, and it wouldn't be a grave crime if this Wei Family Purple Mansion killed him on the spot.

However, Wang Chen was a Guarding Heavenly Master!

The Wei family members surrounding Wang Chen changed their expressions when they heard Wei Chengzhi's words.

The bows and crossbows they had just raised were all put down.

The Guarding Heavenly Master represented West Sea Sect and had the highest status in Dayi City.

If they killed Wang Chen today, the West Sea Sect would exterminate the Wei family!

"So it's the Superior Wei."

Wang Chen had heard of Wei Chengzhi's name before, but since the Wei Family was not within his jurisdiction, he hadn't paid it much mind.

He hadn't expected to encounter him under such circumstances.

He said in a deep voice, "I am under orders to capture a spy of the Sand Tribe. Any offense caused in doing so, please forgive me."

The Wei Family, with its three Purple Mansion cultivators, ranked among the prominent families in Dayi City. Since the Wei Family's cultivation level was comparable to his own, Wang Chen was willing to offer an explanation.

To avoid unnecessary complications.

If the other side cooperated, that would be best. Otherwise...

"A spy?"

Wei Chengzhi's expression instantly contorted: "Are you saying that my Wei Family is harboring a spy from the Sand Tribe?"

The accusation was too severe to bear; the Purple Mansion's eyes betrayed his deep suspicion.

He suspected that he or the Wei Family had offended Wang Chen somehow, and Wang Chen was using this as an excuse to cause trouble.

Harboring a spy from the Sand Tribe was a crime that could lead to the annihilation of one's entire household!

"It's not quite that."

Wang Chen shook his head and pointed towards a small building to the left: "It's just that I have discovered that the spy is hiding right over there!"

"Impossible!"

Wei Chengzhi's face instantly turned crimson: "That is my daughter's chamber!"

As the current Family Head of the Wei Family, he had only one daughter, whom he treated like the apple of his eye, and for her, he had specially constructed the Yunfang Tower.

Now, with Wang Chen claiming that there was a spy from the Sand Tribe hiding in the tower, if the accusation stuck, the Wei Family's reputation would be ruined.

Wei Chengzhi was unwilling to believe that his beloved daughter would harbor a spy!

A hint of murderous intent suddenly surged in his heart!

In Wang Chen's vision, a white dot instantly turned yellow!

He still had global mode activated, but had reduced the range of his Divine Sense exploration to within a hundred steps.

This massively reduced the consumption of Human Virtue.

Therefore, Wang Chen was able to detect Wei Chengzhi's change at the first moment—his white name had turned yellow.

He looked at the Wei Family Head with a meaningful glance and said, "Superior Wei, both my time and patience are limited, please make your decision swiftly."

With Wang Chen's current strength, he really didn't see this fellow cultivator of the same tier as a threat.

Even if he included another member of the Wei Residence who had not shown themselves, but vaguely exuded an intimidating aura from the Purple Mansion, he was not afraid in the slightest.

But Wang Chen would rather have the other party cooperate with him.

Otherwise, once a fight broke out, it would easily give their target the chance to escape!

Wei Chengzhi's heart suddenly sank, feeling as if Wang Chen had completely seen through his thoughts.

Killing was the absolute last resort.

But if he allowed Wang Chen to do as he pleased in his own home, he could not swallow that indignity.

"Agree to his terms."

Just as the Wei Family Head was indecisively weighing his options, an old voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

Wei Chengzhi's eyes twitched, and he hardened his heart as he waved his hand and said, "Someone, bring the young miss and the people from Yunfang Tower out for Heavenly Master Wang to inspect!"

Under others' rooftops, one must bow their heads, even if it was his own rooftop, how could it possibly be higher than the Heavenly Master Pavilion!

Soon, the young miss of the Wei Family was brought out along with a dozen maidservants.

Wei Chengzhi said with an expressionless face, "Heavenly Master Wang, my daughter and her attendants are all here."

The Wei Family's young miss was pampered and spoiled, a beauty of the highest order, the type that had been indulged.

But she was not foolish or ignorant. Seeing the scene in the courtyard, she silently stood to the side.

She assessed Wang Chen with eyes full of apprehension and curiosity.

However, Wang Chen's attention was not on the pampered young miss at all.

He said solemnly, "The traitor is not among these people."

Before Wei Chengzhi could speak, the Wei Family's young miss suddenly widened her eyes, "A traitor? There is no traitor here, it's impossible!"

Wei Chengzhi gestured with his hand for his daughter to refrain from arguing, and said with a suppressed anger, "Heavenly Master, please proceed as you wish."

He had already made up his mind.

If Wang Chen truly found a spy from the Sand Tribe, then the Wei Family could only bow their heads and accept guilt.

But if not, afterwards he would surely make a complaint to the West Sea Sect.

The Wei Family had connections within the West Sea Sect as well!

"Very well then!"

Wang Chen was indifferent to the other party's thoughts. He nodded and said, "Superior Wei, my apologies."

Before he had finished speaking, Wang Chen suddenly soared into the air.

In an instant, he dashed above Yunfang Tower and then struck down with his palm.

Heavenly Dragon Vajra Palm!

Wang Chen had no interest in playing a game of hide and seek with his enemies. Once he was sure that the target was in the building, he adopted the simplest and most direct method.

He had gathered his full strength into this palm strike and also contained the force within a very small area.

The construction materials of Yunfang Tower were of the highest quality, but how could they withstand the formidable power of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Palm. The tower instantly crumbled into countless fragments.

The force of Wang Chen's palm penetrated the whole building from top to bottom, creating a large hole in the ground!

The entire Wei Residence trembled as a result.

Wei Chengzhi and the other members of the Wei Family were all stunned.

In their wildest dreams, they had not expected Wang Chen to be so violent and ruthless.

This palm strike was no different from a slap in their faces!

But in the next moment, everyone saw a mass of dark light erupting from underground, emitting a terrifying howl as it swept towards Wang Chen in the air.
