Chapter 1862: 1862

In Myriad Abyss Island, seniority mattered . Though Yan Wanjun had seen better days, Imperial Prince Huo and the Rejuvenation Isles couldn’t take him lightly because of that .



Moreover, Jiang Chen’s meteoric rise had propelled the old man back to prominence . That kind of side effect was completely unavoidable .

In front of Yan Wanjun, the imperial prince couldn't take a hardline stance .

Chief Warden Ding transmitted, “Your Highness, Winterdraw Island is already lost . We can’t change that . This Sir Jiang Chen managed to turn the tide of a war in Eternal Divine Nation, then put on a similarly marvelous performance in Martial Divine Nation . Rejuvenation can’t afford to anger someone like that . I think we should give up pursuing this matter . Let us make peace rather than draw trouble for our nation . ”

Imperial Prince Huo hadn't considered the warden’s advice before, but he needed to do so now .

After a long while, he laughed wryly before proclaiming, “If Sir Jiang Chen has taken over this place, Rejuvenation is honored by your presence . We are willing to give up all claims here . Still, I have a small request I would like to make . ”

“What is it?” As an elder, Yan Wanjun was much more amiable than Jiang Chen . Since Imperial Prince Huo had conceded the point, he found no reason to press the other man .

Whether Rejuvenation had given up Winterdraw or Jiang Chen had taken it, the island had a different owner from now on . The Rejuvenation Isles would no longer have a say in its affairs .

“If Sir Jiang Chen has decided to settle here, we will be neighbors from now on . Rejuvenation would greatly appreciate if the young sir could take care of us if the opportunity arises . We very much enjoy his presence . ”

 What the prince meant wasn’t hard to understand . Anyone would want help from a powerful neighbor . This was a request to hug Jiang Chen’s thigh .

“Oh, I don’t think that’ll be any trouble,” Yan Wanjun smiled faintly . “Sir Jiang is hardly cold enough to deny reasonable requests . I should mention that unreasonable ones however, will be met with attitude in kind . ”

Imperial Prince Huo fearfully affirmed this .

“Alright, your excessive activity out here has made Sir Jiang Chen quite displeased already . You may go . ” Yan Wanjun waved a hand .

The imperial prince nodded incessantly . “Yes, yes . I will leave right away . We’ve been disturbing Sir Jiang’s cultivation . ”

He signaled to Rejuvenation’s men, who all collectively breathed a sigh of relief before fleeing from the scene as quickly as possible . After finding out Jiang Chen’s identity, they’d never even imagined resisting him . That was practically impossible!



When it came down to a choice between the easy way and the hard way, the latter was essentially suicide .

Yan Wanjun had mixed feelings as he watched Imperial Prince Huo’s retinue depart . He sighed internally . “Here in Myriad Abyss, young Jiang Chen has already become someone unrivaled in his generation . Will little Huang’er really be able to keep up with him?”


However, his thoughts turned for the better . “Thankfully, he is a loyal man . He and Huang’er have known each other since the human domain, and he hasn’t abandoned her despite all the ordeals . The amount of care he’s shown for Huang’er’s parents shows that he truly loves her . One couldn’t ask for a better dao partner . ”

He told Jiang Chen about the happenings outside after returning to the island’s interior .

“Rejuvenation has the face to ask me to take care of them?” Jiang Chen sneered . “I faced certain death back then on Winterdraw . These isles are a hive of scum and villainy . I’ve no intention to retaliate for wrongs so far in the past though, I suppose . ”

Yan Wanjun roared with laughter . “I knew you’re a generous sort! You wouldn’t stoop to their petty level . ”

Jiang Chen’s mouth twitched a little . Instead of confirming this, he asked, “Elder Wanjun, when are you planning to make the trip to House Yan?”



“As soon as possible . Each extra day that Huang’er’s parents are kept in the Boundless Prison represents a great deal of risk . The more I can minimize that, the better . ” The mention of his younger son moved Yan Wanjun . He had been furious at his son all those years ago, since his choice of dao partner was the only reason House Xiahou had for its enmity against House Yan .

It was youthful recklessness that had turned the young lady from House Xiahou against his son . The Generation Binding Curse cast upon Huang’er, still in the womb, had been for the same reason .

Though Huang’er’s parents were cast into the Boundless Prison, the Xiahou lady’s fury still didn’t relent against their child . She didn't want the baby girl to grow up with a happy fate .

Now that House Xiahou was no more, Yan Wanjun suddenly felt he owed his younger son far too much .  

The betrothal between House Yan and Xiahou had been the result of a joke between seniors, a product of a drunken stupor . His younger son, Yan Qianfan, was naturally extremely displeased at such an incidental decision once he grew up .

He wanted to decide for himself who he would marry .

That was the reason he had fled so desperately from his house . The engagement with the young lady from House Xiahou had been a debt from his elders, ignored with the heady abandon of youth .

Before he left, Yan Wanjun gave Jiang Chen some well-meaning advice .  

“Jiang Chen, there is no need to make an enemy of the Rejuvenation Isles–even if you don't want to be their friend . Your goals should be loftier than that . The support of Rejuvenation alone doesn’t amount to much, but unified support from many like it would be considerably weighty in its own right . If you can win over the majority, who in Myriad Abyss will be able to deny your greatness?”

Yan Wanjun wanted only the best for his son’s friend . Jiang Chen smiled ambiguously; he knew the usefulness of popularity quite well . However, Rejuvenation had made such a terrible impression on him back then that he didn't want to excuse them .

After sending Yan Wanjun off, Jiang Chen instructed Lu Che in careful detail . “After I leave, you lot will be responsible for guarding this place . When the formation is active, any non-divine outsiders will be stopped cold . Even gods would find it difficult to break open this restriction in a short period of time . ”

Lu Che thumped his chest . “Don’t worry . We’ll take good care of this place . ”

They were very excited to receive Jiang Chen’s trust .

After a few cursory preparations, Jiang Chen prepared to return to the human domain through the transportation formation .
