Chapter 139 - 127: Trial Peril, Ye Chen Steps In!_2
"Ye Chen, you’ve finally decided to come out of seclusion. What kind of retreat did you take these past five months? You even missed the Trial Road," an elder in a red robe, who was none other than Elder Ouyang, spoke. He, too, had been a participant in that battle at the Demon Suppression Battlefield.
Ye Chen’s retreat had lasted five months, an excessively long duration; normally, it would be impossible to enter seclusion for such an extended period.
"Because I was in deep seclusion, I lost track of the outside world and had no knowledge of the passage of time or any messages sent from the outside, which led to me missing the opening day," Ye Chen shook his head and said.
Several faces exchanged looks of shock and disbelief—deep seclusion typically meant a significant breakthrough had been made. What exactly had Ye Chen achieved?
Elder Duanmu, whose eyes were full of penetrating light, hesitated for a moment before he couldn’t help but ask, "Ye Chen, have you... reached the Martial God Realm?"
"Martial God Realm?"
The other two Supreme Elders, despite their centuries of life experience and worldly wisdom, couldn’t help but have their expressions drastically change at these words, "Elder Duanmu, what joke are you making? Ye Chen is only so young, how could he possibly have achieved the Martial God Realm so quickly?"
It was precisely because Ye Chen was too young, excessively so, that due to his extraordinary strength and talent, they often overlooked the fact that Ye Chen was only sixteen years old.
If Ye Chen truly became a Martial God, a sixteen-year-old Martial God would probably be the youngest throughout the entire Tiandu Continent.
