Su Chen understood that staying in the Martial Soul Continent any longer would inevitably lead to being hunted by the nine great Martial Soul holy grounds—a risk he deemed unnecessary. More importantly, he had already discovered that the nature of his own martial soul and the Blood Wheel were nearly identical; further research into the martial soul would yield no benefit to his personal cultivation.
For these reasons, Su Chen decided to leave the Martial Soul Continent temporarily. In the past, he might have stayed, fearing that the nine holy grounds would act recklessly, but the situation was different now. With the successful hatching of the Chaos Egg, he had obtained a brand-new Nie Yu. Using the space-time communication replicated by the Nie Yu, he could return at a moment’s notice should anything happen to the Three Swords Holy Ground or Xing Mi, provided he did not venture too far.
"Senior Sister Xing, stay here at the Three Swords Holy Ground and focus on your cultivation. I will be away for at least six months, perhaps three to five years at most, but I will return. If Yan Huang comes back, please tell him to remain at the Three Swords Holy Ground and wait for me."
