Qin Zhenling: I never said I was going to renege on my debt.

Chapter 650 Qin Zhenling: I never said I was going to renege on my debt.

"Okay!" Chen Lie nodded.

Ji Yuyan was the woman who launched a mental attack on her; Chen Lie completely devoured the mental energy within her consciousness.

His soul and vital energy were severely damaged, and it would be difficult for him to wake up within a day or two.

Qi Tai thanked him repeatedly.

At this time, the leaders of the Western Star Region and the Northern Star Region also arrived in the Eastern Star Region and began to negotiate with Wang Shou and Lei Jinglong.

This battle for the four star regions ended in victory for the Eastern Star Region. Everyone with eyes to see knows that soon, Blue Star will become the chief and uncrowned king of the 28 planets in the four star regions.

Having obtained the authority to command and establish the interstellar alliance certified by the Holy Temple, Blue Star has the right to conscript troops from various star systems, appoint military commanders, and issue interstellar conquest missions.

In this situation, if you still go against Blue Star, although Blue Star may not be able to kill you, it can make things difficult for you at any time, and from time to time issue a mission that will make your star system's troops suffer.

The three star regions quickly realized the situation and understood that they had to befriend Blue Star.

At this moment, officials from the Holy Martial Dynasty arrived and said to the leaders of the four star regions: "Each of your four star regions has sent one person to be received by His Highness the Crown Prince."

The representatives of the Three Stars wish to discuss with you the decree of the Holy Temple to form a new army.

"yes!"

The leader of the Four Star Regions replied and immediately followed the official to the summit of the eastern mountain where the Three Star Regions were located.

Wang Shou was the official who accompanied the Holy Martial Dynasty from Blue Star. When Lei Jinglong saw the worsening celestial phenomena, he said to everyone, "It's not a good place to stay. Let's go back to the Four Star Pavilion and wait for Chairman Wang's news."

Of the ten people from Blue Star who participated in the battle, all except Chen Lie were seriously injured. Although they lost their fighting ability, it did not affect their actions.

At Lei Jinglong's call, the group left Deadly Ridge.

Just then, Princess Chengning's entourage emerged from the Deadly Ridge.

Princess Qin Zhenkui, seated on the ceremonial stand, gave Chen Lie a cold glance.

Princess Zhu Jingxi of the Crimson Flame Star came to Chen Lie's side and asked, "Brother Chen, I just heard the onlookers say that this should be Princess Chengning's ceremonial procession, right?"

Didn't Princess Chengning give you a permit to enter Death Ridge?

"You were so close just now, why didn't you go up and say thank you?"

The order to enter Death Ridge ahead of time was also crucial for the Eastern Star Region. In the first battle between the Southern and Northern Star Regions, the Northern Star Region lost so quickly because they failed to enter Death Ridge in advance to scout the harsh environment.

Upon entering the battlefield, he was severely affected by the adverse weather conditions, which greatly limited the strength of the Northern Star Region.

"There's no need for greetings or thanks. This princess from Beimang Star isn't really trying to make things convenient for me," Chen Lie said calmly.

"Oh?"

Zhu Jingxi felt strange, but didn't ask any more questions. She looked at Chen Lie with her beautiful eyes and said with pursed lips, "Your martial arts talent is truly rare in the world. To say that you are a once-in-a-millennium talent in the Eastern Star Region is, in my opinion, a bit of an underestimation of you."

Your talent is so exceptional that it would be an understatement to say it comes only once in a thousand years across the entire star system.

"I'm fairly qualified."

"If that's what you're saying, then I, a mediocre person, can only feel ashamed and have nowhere to hide."

You've only been at Starry Sky University for half a year. Half a year ago, you were just a Qi and Blood Warrior. Now, with your strength, you should be good enough to be on the Hidden Dragon List, right?

The battle between Blue Star and Wood Star for the permanent council seats, and the struggle for control of the four star regions, ultimately depended on your efforts to turn the tide.

"Let alone the Four Star Regions, even within the Ten Star Alliance, those who can compare to you are probably only the top geniuses of the Ten Star Alliance planets."

Zhu Jingxi's face was full of admiration.

If Chen Lie were from the Crimson Flame Star, how wonderful that would be! She would definitely ask her father, the Emperor, to make him her son-in-law.

Not long after, the people from the Eastern Star Region returned to the Four Star Pavilion in a spirit beast chariot.

Upon arriving at the Four Star Pavilion, Chen Lie was invited over by Qi Tai, the dean of the Langya Star Martial Arts Academy in the Southern Star Region.

Upon arriving at a guest room, Chen Lie saw Ji Yuyan lying unconscious on the bed.

"Mr. Chen Lie, could you please take a look?" Qi Tai said.

"good!"

Chen Lie stepped forward, took Ji Yuyan's hand, and began to channel his spiritual energy to repair Ji Yuyan's sea of ​​consciousness.

Ji Yuyan's spiritual power was already at the peak of the fourth level, but her spiritual power was far inferior to Chen Lie's. Under the devouring power of Chen Lie's third star god "Willow Earth Deer", less than one-tenth of the original spiritual power in her sea of ​​consciousness remained, and she naturally fell into a coma.

Chen Lie expended a great deal of effort in the entire process of restoring Ji Yuyan's mental strength, and it took him more than two hours to barely restore her consciousness to about 70-80%.

Chen Lie is currently a third-tier Divine Sense Master, but he has not yet been able to create a fourth Star God.

The fourth star deity of the Seven Mansions of the Southern Heaven is named Star Sun Horse, which is the eye of the Vermilion Bird and has the special ability to heal, purify, and repair the soul.

If Chen Lie were to transform into the fourth Star God, the Sun Horse, it would be able to heal Ji Yuyan's traumatic consciousness within a minute.

If it could be solved, it wouldn't have taken so much effort.

After restoring Ji Yuyan's mental strength, Chen Lie took a step back and said to Qi Tai, "That's enough!"

"When will she wake up?" Qi Tai asked.

Just as Chen Lie was about to speak, Ji Yuyan on the bed slowly opened her eyes.

The moment Ji Yuyan saw Chen Lie, she suddenly sprang to her feet, gathering her Five Elements True Qi in her palms and launching an attack on Chen Lie.

"Prepare to die!"

Before Ji Yuyan could even unleash her palm strike, Qi Tai's overwhelming aura as a ninth-level Grandmaster instantly swept across the entire room, stunning Ji Yuyan.

"stop!"

Seeing Qi Tai's serious expression, Ji Yuyan asked in confusion, "Dean Qi—"

"Look carefully where you are here!"

Upon hearing Qi Tai's words, Ji Yuyan quickly looked around and immediately realized that this was no longer the battlefield of Death Ridge. She was extremely puzzled, "Dean Qi, this is—"

Qi Tai said solemnly, "The battle is over. Mr. Chen Lie, the candidate for governor of Blue Star, is very powerful. We are no match for him. We have already lost."

"Lost—lost?"

Ji Yuyan was incredulous. She remembered that Chen Lie was facing a seven-on-one situation just now. Even if she wasn't included, it was still a six-on-one situation. How could the Southern Star Region's Flying Dragon lose when it was right in front of him?

Are all the others useless?

"You were seriously injured on the battlefield, so I specially invited Mr. Chen Lie to treat you."

"If it weren't for Mr. Chen Lie's intervention, you don't know when you would have woken up. Hurry up and thank him!" Qi Tai said.

"I----"

Ji Yuyan didn't know what to say; she was the first to collapse.

Is the Dark Ghost Dragon's spiritual power really that strong? It's utterly despair-inducing.

If we had known he could take on the entire squad by himself, what would have been the point of this competition? It would have been a waste of time and effort.

Thank you so much!

Ji Yuyan bowed deeply to Chen Lie.

Chen Lie simply nodded. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he heard Ji Yuyan shout.

"Um—if I may ask, is your consciousness the Dark Ghost Dragon, ranked number one on the Consciousness Ranking?"

"No, it's a consciousness from another planet."

After answering, Chen Lie turned and left.

"A consciousness from another planet?"

Ji Yuyan murmured.

Chen Lie left the four-star hotel room in the Southern Star Region and returned to the Eastern Star Region.

By this time, the injuries sustained by those who participated in the battle in the Eastern Star Region had largely healed, and everyone had gathered in the living room of the guest rooms.

Upon seeing Chen Lie arrive, everyone's eyes turned to him.

Ning Fan stepped forward first, approaching Chen Lie and asking, "Junior Brother Chen Lie, you just fought seven opponents single-handedly. Could it be that you already possess the strength of a Hidden Dragon Ranking expert?"

"I don't know what kind of strength the Hidden Dragon Ranking represents," Chen Lie shook his head.

"The Hidden Dragon Ranking is the strongest ranking below the fifth-order Qi Control Realm. Even many third-year students from Starry Sky University cannot defeat the experts on the Hidden Dragon Ranking. Even the 180th person at the bottom of the Hidden Dragon Ranking is at least at the peak of the fourth-order Qi Gathering Realm, someone who has broken through the Yuan Aperture in the Qi and Blood Realm, or someone who has cultivated two great divine treasures in the True Qi Extreme Realm," Ning Fan said.

"Oh? Can one enter the Hidden Dragon Ranking simply by unlocking the two divine treasures?" Chen Lie asked.

"That's not it. The rankings on the Hidden Dragon List change rapidly. As we get past the halfway point of the year, the standards on the Hidden Dragon List will only get higher and higher. I'm only talking about the minimum standard. You can compare it to Qi Donglin from Langya Star in the Southern Star Region."

As far as I know, Qi Donglin briefly reached the bottom of the Hidden Dragon List, and was then pushed down after only a few days. He can be considered to be at the threshold of the Hidden Dragon List.

"But that was a month ago. The current bottom of the Hidden Dragon Ranking must be even stronger," Ning Fan said.

Chen Lie said, "Then I'm probably a bit short of the Hidden Dragon Ranking now."

Chen Lie's strength was actually not much different from Qi Donglin's, and his power was not necessarily stronger than Qi Donglin's. It was because of the sharpness of his Five Divine True Qi, coupled with his inexhaustible power, that he defeated Qi Donglin.

If Qi Donglin didn't have the strength to make it onto the Hidden Dragon List, he probably would have done the same.

Ning Fan said decisively, "Even if it's bad, it's close enough."

Zhu Jingxuan stepped forward and said, "Brother Chen, the credit for the victory in this battle for the Four Star Regions belongs entirely to you. You are a great hero of the Eastern Star Region."

Six months ago, you were only at the Qi and Blood stage. I never imagined your strength would surpass all of ours. You truly are a genius, one in a thousand years!

Crimson Flame Star Xiao Sheng, Watery Star You Mingyue, and Golden Field Star He Zhen also praised it.

To this, Chen Lie simply said, "You flatter me!"

"Brother Chen, we're all at Starry Sky University, and now we're on North Star. We can use the communication bracelets, so why don't we add each other as contact persons?" Zhu Jingxuan suggested.

"sure!"

Chen Lie used the communication bracelet to exchange contact information with the others.

Zhu Jingxi was at the front of the line. She exchanged contact information with Chen Lie first, and the others followed suit. Chen Lie accepted all of them.

Only Mu Yuanxing Meng Qingwan remained motionless.

Seeing this, Zhu Jingxi stepped forward: "Qingwan, why don't you exchange contact information with Brother Chen?"

Meng Qingwan was initially a bit reserved, but upon hearing Zhu Jingxi's words, she took the opportunity to step forward and exchange contact information with Chen Lie.

Although it's hard to admit, Chen Lie's talent on Blue Star is truly remarkable. If Blue Star didn't have Chen Lie, it would be Wood Origin Star participating in the Four Star Domains Battle today.

Chen Lie did not refuse Meng Qingwan's arrival and recorded a contact number with everyone.

At this moment, Wang Shou returned from outside.

When Lei Jinglong saw Wang Shou return, he immediately went up to him: "President Wang, how did it go?"

Wang Shou nodded: "I have already discussed the formation of the 19th Interstellar Alliance with the representatives of Aurora Star and Changxia Star, and the other three star regions have also expressed their willingness to cooperate to the best of their ability."

After receiving the seal of the 19th Interstellar Alliance issued by His Highness the Holy Envoy, you can return to Earth.

"By the way, Chen Lie."

As he spoke, Wang Shou suddenly looked at Chen Lie and handed him a letter: "Representative Xie Ziyuan from Aurora Star asked me to give you an invitation to attend the Divine Sense Master Conference on Aurora Star."

Chen Lie took the letter, opened it, and saw that it was indeed an invitation from Aurora Star, and the invitee was none other than Chen Lie himself.

Isn't Xie, the representative of Aurora Star, that actress Fei?

Why would she send herself an invitation?

Chen Lie didn't think the actress had the ability to recognize him; he figured she must have been drawn to his talent.

"Okay, I understand!"

Chen Lie nodded and put the invitation into his storage bag.

Lei Jinglong then said, "President Wang, there's no time to lose. Shall we go to the Four Star Pavilion now to collect the seal issued by the Holy Envoy's Temple?"

Wang Shou nodded and said, "Let's go!"

Wang Shou and Lei Jinglong immediately went out and headed to the Four Star Hall.

Upon arriving at the main hall of the Four Star Pavilion, Wang Shou found the gatekeeper.

He cupped his hands and said, "Esteemed officer, we are from Blue Star in the Eastern Star Region. We have come here specifically to collect the seal of the Interstellar Alliance, following your instructions."

The gatekeeper glanced at Wang Shou and said, "Wait here, I'll go and report right away!"

The gatekeeper immediately stepped forward, and soon a man in an official robe came out.

"I am the owner of the Four-Star Pavilion. Are you from the Eastern Star Region?"

"Greetings, Master. We are from the Eastern Star Region and have come to receive the seal of the Interstellar Alliance bestowed by the Holy Envoy Hall."

The owner of the Four Star Pavilion said, "You should go back. The seal of the Holy Envoy Hall has been taken away by the Crown Prince's Chamberlain. They said they will contact you."

"I see, thank you for your concern!"

Wang Shou and Lei Jinglong cupped their hands in greeting, then turned and left the Holy Envoy Hall.

As soon as they returned to their room in the Eastern Star Region, they saw two veiled maids carrying swords walking to the courtyard.

One of the maids carrying a sword said in a clear, cold voice, "Chen Lie from Blue Star, come out and greet me!"

The clear, cold voice echoed in all directions. Upon hearing the sound, Chen Lie, who was in the living room of the guest room, immediately came out of his room.

The other nine people from the Eastern Star Region came out together.

After stepping outside, Chen Lie saw two maidservants carrying swords and asked, "I am Chen Lie. What can I do for you?"

A maid carrying a sword said, "Princess Chengning has something to tell you."

If you want the Imperial Envoy's seal, go to the Crown Prince's residence to apologize first thing tomorrow morning!

After delivering their message, the two sword-wielding maids turned to leave.

At this moment, Wang Shou stepped forward: "Gentlemen, gentlemen, may I ask what's going on? Why was Chen Lie sent to the Crown Prince's residence to apologize?"

"This man is arrogant and disrespectful. He not only offended Princess Chengning, but also injured her pet beast. He should go and apologize with thorns on his back."

After the maid carrying the sword finished speaking, she quickly left.

"Arrogant and insubordinate?"

Wang Shou was taken aback. The paper token that Chen Lie used to enter the Death Ridge was given to him by Princess Chengning. How could he have offended the princess?

If he had truly offended Princess Chengning, why would she have issued him a permit to enter and leave Jue Ming Ridge?

"Chen Lie, what exactly happened?" Wang Shou asked hurriedly.

Chen Lie said, "It's nothing, I just played a little game with this princess, and she couldn't accept losing."

"What should we do? I just went with Principal Lei to collect the seal issued by the Holy Envoy Hall, but we were told that the seal had already been taken away by the Crown Prince's Chamberlain. It seems that it was withheld by this Princess Chengning."

"It's okay, I'll go there."

"Can you solve this?" Wang Shou asked.

Chen Lie is a great contributor to Blue Star and even the Eastern Star Region. Even if he has caused a huge disaster, he cannot be blamed. Moreover, he only provoked Princess Chengning because of the competition.

"Don't worry, I can handle this easily!"

Chen Lie had a premonition that Princess Chengning would definitely come to him for help because of the true energy circulation diagram, so he recklessly and severely injured the eight-star beast.

"You're going now? Didn't that person from Princess Chengning tell you to go first thing tomorrow morning?"

"Of course we'll go now. We don't have time to wait for her!"

After Chen Lie finished speaking, he left the Four Star Hall.

Upon arriving at the main street of the Four Star Pavilion, he boarded a spirit beast carriage and headed to the residence of the Holy Martial Prince.

Soon, the spirit beast carriage arrived at the Holy Martial Crown Prince's residence, and Chen Lie paid the fare with the Holy Martial Dynasty banknotes that Zhang Liwu had given him last time.

After disembarking from the spirit beast chariot, Chen Lie arrived outside the residence of the Holy Martial Crown Prince.

Just as the gatekeeper was about to announce his arrival, Chen Lie saw a ceremonial procession emerge from the residence of the Holy Martial Prince.

Upon seeing the person in the ceremonial frame, Chen Lie's heart stirred.

On the central ceremonial stand, isn't that Princess Qin Zhenling of Shaokang?

This person owes him a starry treasure; you could say Chen Lie is her creditor.

To be honest, Chen Lie disliked Princess Chengning very much. If he could, he wouldn't want to give her the complete Qi circulation route map of the Extreme Realm Cultivation Method. Now that he had met Qin Zhenling, Chen Lie was too lazy to go find Qin Zhenkui.

They are both princesses. Even if Princess Shaokang is not as good as Princess Chengning, she should still be able to do everything, right?

Seeing that the procession was about to leave, Chen Lie immediately used his subtle mental power to send a message to Qin Zhenling.

Qin Zhenling's expression suddenly changed, and she began to look around.

Soon, she spotted Chen Lie in the distance and said to the ceremonial procession, "Halt!"

"yes!"

Everyone, including the Imperial Guards who were with them, stopped in their tracks.

"I'm just coming over; you don't need to follow."

After giving the order, Qin Zhenling jumped off the ceremonial stand and walked towards Chen Lie.

Upon arriving in front of Chen Lie, Qin Zhenling gave him a deep look.

"Who are you? Was that the voice you just heard?"

"Indeed!" Chen Lie asked, "Princess Shaokang, Qin Bailing, you haven't forgotten that transaction at the Canglong Star trading market in the Sumeru Illusionary Realm six months ago, have you?"

Qin Zhenling's face paled slightly: "Who exactly are you?"

Seeing Qin Zhenling's expression, Chen Lie immediately understood that Sheng Yingluo from the Holy Envoy Hall must have successfully collected his debts.

"I know a friend who, upon learning that I was going to Beimang Star, asked me to help him collect a debt from a person named Qin Bailing. He also said that this Qin Bailing was a princess of the Holy Martial Dynasty who owed him a star treasure."

But he anticipated you would renege on your debt, so he asked a friend in the Holy Envoy Hall of the Azure Sky Region to give you a heads-up. I wonder if you received that reminder?

Qin Zhenling vividly remembered that day. The Holy Envoy Hall issued a direct order, which fell on her, a nobody in the Holy Martial Royal Family. Of course, she dared not renege on the order.

Although they are no longer just minor members of the royal family, they dare not renege on their debts.

"I—I didn't say I was going to renege on the debt. It's just a rare gem from the starry sky, right? I'll give it to you!" Qin Zhenling said in a low voice.

Chen Lie said calmly, "My friend said that you've been owing this debt for too long, and it's no longer just about a single celestial treasure."

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenling immediately said, "How can you do this? He didn't come to ask for it back himself, and I don't know who he is. Even if I wanted to return it to him, I couldn't!"

He's trying to raise the price on the spot!

Chen Lie waved his hand: "It's no use telling me this. I'm just here to relay messages."

"Who is this friend you mentioned?" Qin Zhenling asked.

"He is from the Sword God Academy in the Sword Ascension Starfield. You don't need to know the specifics."

"Sword God Academy —"

Qin Zhenling murmured to herself, no wonder that person was able to convey pressure to her through the Holy Envoy Hall.

She certainly knew what the Sword God Academy meant.

But do the people of the Sword God Academy lack another celestial treasure? Is it necessary to waste such a valuable resource and keep focusing on them?

"My friend certainly doesn't lack even a small celestial treasure, but he's very bothered by people who owe him money and don't pay it back."

"Then—what else does he want?" Qin Zhenling asked.

Won't they try to extort money from me?

Chen Lie changed the subject and said, "Actually, I can help you negotiate. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Chen Lie, and I am from Blue Star in the Eastern Star Region."

"I know!"

Qin Zhenling nodded. She had learned about Chen Lie today at the battlefield of Jue Ming Ridge.

"Good to know. I have a little trouble now. His Highness the Holy Envoy has issued a seal to form an interstellar alliance for the winning side in the battle for the four star regions."

This seal should have been handed over to us, but Princess Chengning withheld it. If you can help me retrieve the seal, your debt will remain the same as the Starry Sky Treasure.

"I know about your feud with the Imperial Sister; you injured her pet beast."

If I help you retrieve the seal, wouldn't I offend my elder sister?

After leaving Death Ridge, Qin Zhenling stayed with Qin Zhenkui and naturally knew the reason behind the events.

Upon hearing Chen Lie's request, he couldn't help but raise questions.

"I'm just asking if you can do it!" Chen Lie was too lazy to waste words and said directly, "If you can't do it—that's fine too."

Besides that one celestial treasure, prepare another ten million catties of Five Elements Stones. My friend said this is the interest on your debt.

"What? Ten million catties of Five Elements Stones?"

Upon hearing this amount, Qin Zhenling was immediately startled.

She was just a weak and powerless princess, without even a fiefdom. She relied on the royal family for food every day. She could produce a rare treasure from the starry sky, but even if you emptied her princess mansion and tore down all the floor tiles, it still wouldn't be enough, plus ten million catties of Five Elements Stones.

"Think about it yourself. My friend said that if you dare to renege on your debt, next time it won't just be a simple reminder from the Canglan Holy Envoy Hall," Chen Lie said.

Qin Zhenling believed Chen Lie's words without a doubt. Who among ordinary people could instruct the Holy Envoy Hall to collect debts?

Chen Lie is the first freshman at Starry Sky University. Starry Sky University has always had connections with outer star regions, so it's not surprising that he knows someone from the Sword God Academy in the Sword-Approaching Star Region.
