BXBX NOVEL Chapter 270 Running Away
Seeing Wang Chen standing safely under the eaves, he couldn\'t help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Taoist Friend Wang, are you alright?"
Just now, at home, he had heard the commotion from this direction, but had no idea what had happened until he had mustered the courage to come and check.
"I\'m fine."
Wang Chen said to Chen Qi, "I need to leave."
Chen Qi was immediately shocked, "Where are you going? Don\'t you want this house anymore?"
From what Wang Chen said, it was clear that he planned to leave Dongwu Stockade and not return.
To say goodbye to him!
"I just killed someone from Guard Hall."
Wang Chen explained, "I\'m afraid they\'ll come looking for trouble, so I can\'t keep the house."
Guard Hall!
Chen Qi\'s face instantly turned pale.
Wang Chen spoke lightly, but Chen Qi understood very well the seriousness of the matter.
Everyone knew that Dongwu Stockade\'s Guard Hall was established by Xin Han specifically for Golden Snake Gentleman.
Now that the Purple Mansion Superior is in seclusion and no one can restrain the Golden Snake Gentleman, the power of Guard Hall has been expanding unchecked, exuding an arrogant pressure within Dongwu Stockade.
Wang Chen had actually killed someone from Guard Hall, how could the Golden Snake Gentleman let this go?
Chen Qi blurted out, "Where, where are you going?"
No sooner had he spoken these words than he realized his mistake and hastily waved his hands, saying, "Forget I asked!"
Wang Chen had caused a big problem and was about to flee, how could he reveal his whereabouts to someone else?
He shouldn\'t have asked!
"It\'s okay."
Wang Chen said with a smile, "I\'m planning to go to the West Sea Spirit Domain."
Chen Qi was shocked, "The West Sea Spirit Domain!"
The West Sea Spirit Domain was the vast dominion of the number one Immortal Gates of the Mountain and Sea Realm—the West Sea Sect, with countless cultivators in numerous Immortal Cities, far surpassing the once familiar and now remote Cloud Sun Old Land.
And the distance between Cloud Sun Old Land and the West Sea Domain was hundreds of thousands of miles, with the insurmountable Jade Dragon Mountain range lying in between, a place even large flying warships couldn\'t cross. One could only imagine the dangers and obstacles on this journey.
Yet Wang Chen, merely a high-tier Qi Cultivator, was intending to go to the West Sea Spirit Domain.
How could Chen Qi not be surprised?
But he didn\'t know how to persuade Wang Chen and for a moment was at a loss for words.
Wang Chen said, "Brother Chen, Dongwu Stockade is becoming more and more chaotic. Your family should also get ready. It is certainly wise to leave a way out for yourselves."
Initially, Wang Chen had planned to leave Dongwu Stockade after breaking through to open his mansion, but the best laid plans often yield to swift changes. Now, the once tranquil retreat for Loose Cultivators was engulfed in chaos and no longer suitable for continued cultivation in hiding.
And in Wang Chen\'s plan, he was eventually going to the West Sea Spirit Domain anyway.
Because there was the Path to the Heavens!
Wang Chen took out a scroll from his Storage Bag and handed it to Chen Qi, "Brother Chen, we have met by fate, and this in itself is a form of destiny. I\'ll leave this item with you, for when you might need it."
What Wang Chen handed over was the "Cloud Sun Thousands of Miles Geomantic Chart."
This Magic Artifact, though quite peculiar, could show the user\'s location when unfurled, as well as the landscape and landmarks of the surrounding areas.
It was like a navigator\'s chart for the immortals.
But the "Cloud Sun Thousands of Miles Geomantic Chart" could only display the range within the old jurisdiction of the Cloud Sun Sect.
Since he would not be able to return after heading to the West Sea Spirit Domain, keeping this item would be pointless.
And if Chen Qi\'s family also needed to flee, having this item to guide them would undoubtedly be much more convenient.
"Thank you!"
Chen Qi said with embarrassment, "Taoist Friend Wang, I still owe you three hundred jin of Spirit Valley."
He owed Wang Chen so much, yet was unable to repay even a fraction.
Chen Qi also knew very well that once Wang Chen left, it would be nearly impossible for them to ever meet again in this vast world.
Wang Chen smiled and said, "As long as you remember that, it\'s enough."
"Go back quickly, take good care of your family, and if there\'s any danger, leave immediately."
Chen Qi bowed deeply to Wang Chen, "I will never forget your kindness in this lifetime!"
"The journey to the West Sea is long, I regret that I cannot see you off, Taoist Friend Wang. I wish you all the best!"

If he were alone, he would have risked his life to follow Wang Chen to the West Sea Spirit Domain.
But Chen Qi had a wife and two children.
He couldn\'t afford to be impulsively hot-blooded like a youngster, nor did he want to burden Wang Chen.
After Chen Qi left, Wang Chen looked around, casting a final glance at his home.
He punched down onto the ground.
Bang!
The powerful Vajra Fist energy penetrated deep underground, instantly destroying the tunnels and chambers he had painstakingly excavated.
With a violent tremor, the house in front of Wang Chen collapsed thunderously.
Burying the memories of his past year!
Wang Chen summoned the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle, shot up dozens of meters in an instant, and then fled towards the northwest.
Wang Chen could have easily left Dongwu Stockade unnoticed through the underground tunnels.
But with Xin Han out of the picture, who within this Loose Cultivator stockade could be a match for him?
Why should Wang Chen be timid?
He suspected there was a major problem behind Xin Han\'s seclusion; the current chaos in Dongwu Stockade was probably not only related to external factors but also to the Purple Mansion Superior\'s partner and the so-called Golden Snake Gentleman.
However, Wang Chen had no interest in getting involved in this murky situation.
He was merely a passerby, never belonging here, with no obligations to this Loose Cultivator stronghold.
Leaving without ado was the correct choice.
In the span of a breath, Wang Chen, riding the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle, flew out of Dongwu Stockade.
Under the broad daylight, his actions attracted the attention of countless cultivators, sparking streams of light to fly across the stockade.
Pursuing Wang Chen relentlessly!
Of course, Wang Chen noticed the "tails" following behind him.
But he paid no attention, flew dozens of miles away in one breath, and then hovered in the air above a wide-open area.
The cultivators pursuing Wang Chen immediately surrounded him, numbering more than a dozen.
One particularly conspicuous man was clad in a golden robe.
The young cultivator had a pale complexion, delicate and somewhat effeminate features, with narrow eyes and slender eyebrows, giving off a rather mean appearance.
He seemed like a venomous snake ready to strike!
His voice was sharp as well, "You killed my Guard Hall cultivator and just plan to walk away like that?"
"The Golden Snake Gentleman?"
Wang Chen looked at the opponent with interest, asking, "Which public mansion\'s young master have you run out from?"
Working in a Courtesan House made one a courtesan, while working in a public mansion made one a young master. Some female cultivators had unique tastes, willing to spend Flower Spirit Stones for a temporary Taoist partner or cultivation cauldron.
There was once such a public mansion in the old land of Cloud Sun, and Wang Chen had seen a few young masters there.
They bore at least a sevent percent resemblance to the man in front of him.
His words were not directly harmful, but they were highly insulting!
The face of the golden-robed cultivator instantly turned bright red as he screamed, "Kill him!"
Crack!
Before the words of the golden-robed cultivator had finished, a thunderous roar sounded, bursting the eardrums, and streaks of blue-purple lightning suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping all the cultivators.
Five Suns Qian Thunder!
