Chapter 546 - 546: Invisible Trouble
"The s.p.a.ce Enhancement Plant is like the biggest treasure for the people that have formed their s.p.a.ce law seed or have gone even further. That"s because it"s said that the s.p.a.ce Enhancement Plant helps the growth of your law."
" If you have law seed, it will become a law sapling. If it"s a sapling of s.p.a.ce law in your martial s.p.a.ce, it will grow even further. That"s why I told you to touch it," Xun told Long Chen. "The only problem is that I know that it helps, but I don"t know how it helps."
"So it helped me? Let me see," Long Chen lowered the speed of his Spirit Sword and sent his consciousness inside his Martial s.p.a.ce to look inside, but he didn"t find any change. The Sapling of s.p.a.ce Law was still the same size. The only difference was that it was sparkling a little. Long Chen brought his consciousness out of his Martial s.p.a.ce.
"It still looks the same size. It"s just sparkling," Long Chen replied.
"Sparkling seems good. That means that a change is about to occur, but something is missing. Maybe that"s why your s.p.a.ce Law sapling brought you here? To get that missing component to help it grow? Or maybe it"s a different reason. I don"t know exactly since it"s something that I haven"t seen before," Xun let out, shaking his head.
"So basically, I"m stuck between some s.p.a.ce, and I don"t even know what I need to get. Also, I"m a fugitive, and I"m running from girls that don"t freaking understand a single word I say. Can the situation get any worse?" Long Chen let out as he shook his head.
"Also, my head is still hurting. What did they hit me with?" he said as he rubbed his head.
"I am not sure. I didn"t see any weapon near the girl," Xun replied.
"What"s that?" she suddenly said as she pointed towards the front.
Long Chen dropped looking at Xun and looked ahead, and he saw something that seemed like a giant statue of a winged woman. The woman"s statue was so tall that despite there being so many trees in between Long Chen and the statue, he was able to see the top half of it. The statue was still outside the range of his Divine Sense, so he still hadn"t noticed it.
"A women"s statue? Now that I think about it, everyone that I have seen here was a woman. Is this a Matriarchal Society, or is it that no men exist here?" Long Chen muttered in confusion.
"Maybe. That might be why they tied you up. They probably wanted to get a man for themselves," Xun let out as she chuckled.
"Stop joking. We"re in a serious situation," Long Chen replied as he shook his head.
Xun felt guilty, but just as she was about to apologize for joking in a situation like this, Long Chen continued.
"If they wanted me, all they had to do was ask. I wouldn"t say no to such beautiful women," Long Chen continued as he joked around.
"Oh, by the way, sorry for getting angry at you before. I was just worried about Mingyu. Now that I know that the time here doesn"t affect that place, I can be a little calm," Long Chen said as he looked at Xun.
"What about the serious situation? Why are you the one taking it lightly when I"m not allowed to!" Xun let out as she pouted.
"I was joking. You can have some light-hearted conversation as well. It will be able to calm the mind," Long Chen replied as he pinched her cheeks lightly. Since Xun was flying nearby, he didn"t have any problem getting his fingers near her cheeks.
"Are you treating me like a child?!" Xun let out as she glared at Long Chen.
Long Chen caught her hand and pulled her into his embrace. He hugged her tightly as he focused his eyes on her eyes. He used his Divine Sense to keep an eye on the surroundings and to handle the direction.
"Of Course, I don"t treat you as a child. I treat you as a woman, my woman," Long Chen let out softly as he planted a kiss on the cheeks of Xun, who was stunned.
Long Chen didn"t kiss her deeply and gave her a light kiss only before he freed her. He knew that if he tried anything more, she would just disappear.
Xun flew back after she was freed.
"You idiot! You always mess with your Master! You don"t even think about the fact that you are being chased!" Xun replied as she glared at him.
"As I said, you"re not my Master; you"re my woman. As for being chased, they"re still not in my range of Divine Sense. I have left them long behind," Long Chen replied, but just as he said it, he felt as if he had hit an invisible jet while flying.
He was caught in the net while his spirit sword continued ahead. He made his spirit sword move back and try to cut the net, but nothing happened. It was as if the net was made of something that could only be touched by a person and not by a weapon. It was also invisible. That"s why Long Chen was caught in it, but the sword wasn"t able to do anything to it.
"Just my freaking luck," Long Chen cursed.
He tried moving his hand, but he wasn"t able to. His hand was caught in the net.
He made the Spirit Sword move closer to his palm instead, and he was able to catch it.
He was hoping to use the force of the sword to get off, but even after the sword used all its strength to pull him, he wasn"t freed. It was as if the invisible web had captured him, and it wasn"t going to release him.
Long Chen could have been freed if he used his teleport, but his s.p.a.ce related skills didn"t with her, which made it difficult. The invisible net was impossible to break. He also cleared swords with his Qi to cut, but none of it was able to touch the invisible web. It was like only a body could touch it, and that would only get trapped, and no other thing could touch it.
"Try taking the help of Xia. She might be able to cut the thing," Xun told Long Chen.
Long Chen nodded his head and called Xia out once more.
Xia appeared before Long Chen, and he told her to free him, but it only resulted in Xia getting trapped as well.
"Well, that worked well," Long Chen let out as he glanced at Xun.
