The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

F{h*F5#*LjChapter 868: A New Path_1

Du Yunkong jumped around, his happiness clear for all to see.

However, the happiest person was Du Zhuifeng. He watched his child and joyfully said, “Yunkong has always been like this, dreaming of becoming a martial artist since he was young. Unfortunately, just when he reached the age for cultivation, he suffered for more than half a year because of my mistakes. It’s all my fault!”

Upon saying this, he suddenly thought of something, “Young Brother Yang Chen, thank you so much this time!”

Having said that, he quickly shouted, “Yunkong!”

“Father!” Du Yunkong’s reaction was hazy, and he looked at his father with confusion.

Du Zhuifeng’s tone became serious, “Kneel and pay your respects to the person who saved your life. His name is Yang Chen. From today onwards, you must remember his name – Yang Chen.”

Du Yunkong shivered, not daring to go against his father’s words. Although he was young and didn’t quite understand the concept of repaying gratitude, he obediently knelt, mumbling Yang Chen’s name at his father’s command.

“Kowtow!” Du Zhuifeng ordered.

“Elder Du, there is no need for this. Our deal benefits both of us, and I saved Young Master Du to gain what I wanted. It is not a matter of gratitude,” Yang Chen shook his head.

“Yang Chen, this is how we, the Du Family, conduct ourselves. You don’t need to persuade me otherwise. Although he is young, I want him to understand that we must remember those who have helped us. Yunkong, when you grow up and become strong, you must help your Brother Yang Chen unconditionally when he is in trouble or needs assistance!” Du Zhuifeng said.

“Father, I understand.” Du Yunkong raised his head curiously, looked at Yang Chen, and scratched his head, “Brother Yang Chen!”

Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh, “Since you are calling me your brother, I will not be a brother in name only. Black-winged Dapeng, come out!”

“Young Master!” In the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space, the Origin Martial Realm Black-winged Dapeng jumped out.

Yang Chen said, “Black-winged Dapeng, from now on, you will assist this young man. If he is in trouble or needs help, you must do your best. From today onwards, treat him as your brother.”

“Yes, Young Master!” Black-winged Dapeng was slightly surprised.

“Yunkong, this is my gift to you — Black-winged Dapeng. With time, he will be able to carry you soaring through the sky. Do you like it?” Yang Chen asked.

“Such a big bird!” Du Yunkong’s eyes were wide open and full of amazement. How could he not like it?

Du Zhuifeng was also taken aback by Yang Chen’s generosity.

With his experience, he recognized at once what kind of demonic beast it was.

Black-winged Dapeng… Yang Chen actually gave away a Black-winged Dapeng so casually. Although it was only at the Origin Martial Realm, its potential for growth was immense, at least reaching the True Martial Realm. Having it to help his son was more than appropriate.

“Haha, this is a great gift. Yunkong, haven’t you thanked Brother Yang Chen yet?” Du Zhuifeng took a deep breath, then said hastily.

He found that he was increasingly unable to see through the young man before him.

“Thank you, Brother Yang Chen!” Du Yunkong said bashfully. “I love this gift! Brother Black-winged Dapeng, we are friends from now on!”

Black-winged Dapeng was somewhat shy. At first, it couldn’t quite accept this young man as its new master, but upon further thought, the way Yang Chen fulfilled his promise had given Black-winged Dapeng freedom, which was all it desired.

Realizing that it would be free in the future, Black-winged Dapeng had no other complaints and readily agreed to assist Du Yunkong.

“Yang Chen, thank you so much. Your gift has made me, Du Zhuifeng, feel ashamed. As an elder, I haven’t given you anything, yet you have presented my son with such a generous gift,” Du Zhuifeng said with a smile.

“It’s nothing, just a small token of my appreciation,” Yang Chen said with a smile.

“Speaking of which, now that you’re out of the Black Dragon Sect’s jurisdiction, you’re relatively safe for the time being. However, you’re still being hunted by various factions from other areas, so you’re not completely out of danger. What do you plan to do next?” Du Zhuifeng kindly asked.

Yang Chen pondered and said, “I plan to leave the Thirty-six Eastern Counties and head for the Western 42 Regions!”

His ultimate goal was the Central Region, but there was no direct path from the Thirty-six Eastern Counties to the Central Region, so he had to detour through the Western 42 Regions.

“You plan to leave the Thirty-six Eastern Counties? Young Brother Yang Chen, are you not aware that various sects are hunting you down? The routes leaving the Thirty-six Eastern Counties have been completely sealed off, and the checks might be just as harsh as those implemented by the Black Dragon Sect. Are you sure you can pass the check?” Du Zhuifeng said with concern.@@novelbin@@

If it were the case initially, it wouldn’t have mattered, but now that Yang Chen had saved his son and gifted him a present, Du Zhuifeng truly regarded Yang Chen as a junior and friend.

Yang Chen smiled bitterly, “Elder Du, I have my reasons for keeping it a secret. I have to leave the Thirty-six Eastern Counties. In fact, staying here while the various sects are hunting me is even more dangerous!”

“That makes sense, but do you have any idea how to leave? I doubt my status as the City Lord of Liang City can help you,” Du Zhuifeng said with a touch of helplessness.

Yang Chen naturally had not expected Du Zhuifeng to help him. After all, given the current circumstances, it was already a great kindness for Du Zhuifeng to help him leave Bai Qiong County.

After some thought, Yang Chen said, “Elder Du, I don’t have any good solutions for leaving at the moment, but I believe there must be a way.”

Du Zhuifeng did not reply immediately but fell into deep thought.

Seeing that Yang Chen seemed to be facing a problem, Du Yunkong couldn’t help but say, “Father, help Brother Yang Chen!”

After thinking for a while, Du Zhuifeng suddenly had an idea, “Yang Chen, speaking of leaving, I just remembered someone who might be able to help you!”

“What do you mean?” Yang Chen was puzzled.

“Well, I have a good friend named Bai Yishan who is about as strong as I am. He controls the Bai Family which is quite famous in the Thirty-six Eastern Counties,” Du Zhuifeng explained.

“Bai Family… I’ve heard of it,” Yang Chen replied, suddenly remembering something.

Du Zhuifeng said, “But did you know that he only controls a branch of the family? The main family is located in the Western 42 Regions. Recently, there seems to be some significant development in the Western 42 Regions, and many forces from there are returning. The Bai Family has received word and is preparing to return to their main family.”
