Chapter 165


    The golden sun in the sky lasted for five full days before gradually dissipating. During this time, in the Falling Snow Mountain Range, there were two suns during the day. At night, the golden sun remained high in the sky, still as bright as daylight.


    Many cultivators in Ice and Snow City began to kneel toward the golden sun, believing that such an extraordinary phenomenon could only signify the descent of a sage.


    As the golden sun faded, the night returned once again. Stars and the moon filled the sky. Everything returned to normal. At that moment, Yang Chen opened his eyes, and within his pupils, it seemed as though two golden suns were shining brightly.


    In the span of five days, he had fully merged with the Sun God Physique.


    Although his cultivation realm did not break through, remaining at the first level of the Soul Transformation Realm, his aura had clearly improved. Every gesture radiated with divine brilliance.


    “Chen’er!” Zhan Lingshuang entered the grand hall and, seeing Yang Chen unharmed, immediately let out a sigh of relief.


    However, she quickly expressed her dissatisfaction, saying: “You rebellious disciple! Your physique awakens, and you don’t even inform your master in advance! It seems you have less and less regard for me! I’ll settle this account with you later! I told you we would leave in three days, but you went into seclusion for five days! Now, we must depart immediately. Don’t delay anymore, or else there will be little time left when we return to Xuantian Sect! I’ve already sent word to the Seven Great Elders and the two Grand Elders, asking them all to leave seclusion!”


    “Master, are we leaving right now?” When Yang Chen saw Feng Yuwan entering the grand hall with an expression full of reluctance, his heart softened. Originally, he thought he would have three days to spend with her and their unborn child.


    But after merging with the Sun God Physique, he ended up in seclusion for five days.


    “Master, how about we leave after sunrise? I still have some things to discuss with Wan’er.”


    “What things?” Zhan Lingshuang asked casually. But when she turned and saw the sorrow in Feng Yuwan’s beautiful eyes, she immediately understood.


    “Bah!” Zhan Lingshuang curled her lips.


    What could there be to discuss? It was just some trivial matters between a man and a woman. How tiresome.


    “Fine, we’ll leave at sunrise.” With a dismissive tone, Zhan Lingshuang turned and left.


    Yang Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted as he caught sight of this moment.


    “To cause a disturbance in the heavens and earth, inverting yin and yang, day and night! Chen’er, the physique you’ve awakened must be an extreme yang constitution, correct?” Zhan Qiuyun softly asked, her voice elegant.


    In this vast, snowy mountain, her words carried an ethereal resonance.


    “Chen’er?” Zhan Lingshuang immediately frowned and couldn’t help but say: “Second Sister, whatever physique Chen’er awakened is his secret! Even I, his master, don’t know. Don’t ask too much! And also, just call him Yang Chen!”


    “Yang Chen? Heh!” Zhan Qiuyun chuckled playfully. “Lingshuang, we’re sisters! Your one and only direct disciple—if I, as his elder sister, were to call him Yang Chen, wouldn’t that seem too distant? Since you don’t want me to call him Chen’er, how about I call him Xiao Chen then? Xiao Chen, what do you think?”


    “Xiao Chen?” Yang Chen frowned slightly. The word “Xiao” (meaning “little”) had nothing to do with him. Especially now that he had merged with the Sun God Physique—unyielding, pure yang, and incredibly fierce.


    The golden sun within him radiated endless scorching solar energy. However, he didn’t argue too much. After all, the moon-robed woman before him wasn’t just his master’s sister. She was also the master of the Son of Destiny. His journey to Central Continent this time was largely because of her. Building a good relationship with her certainly wouldn’t hurt.


    “Of course, that’s fine! It is an honor for a junior like me to be addressed that way by Senior Zhan!” Yang Chen replied respectfully.


    Upon hearing this, Zhan Qiuyun smiled and said: “Xiao Chen, I’m your master’s elder sister. Calling me ‘senior’ sounds too distant. Just call me Martial Aunt! After all, I am your elder!”


    “Martial Aunt? Elder?” Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile upon hearing this.


    He glanced at the moon-robed woman before him, feeling somewhat puzzled. He realized that this woman’s attitude toward him had suddenly become much warmer and more affectionate. Could it be because he had awakened the Sun God Physique?


    She was dressed in a moon robe—could there be some special connection between her and the Sun God Physique?


    Yang Chen’s gaze met Zhan Qiuyun’s beautiful eyes, which were like autumn waters. He found that the woman was also smiling at him, her eyes filled with a soft glow. It seemed as though a bright, full moon was rising within her gaze. Moreover, the golden sun within Yang Chen’s body seemed to tremble slightly.


    Hiss.


    Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel a chill of fear. Could this woman be plotting something against my body?
