Monarch of Heaven's Wrath 83 Mission complete.

Liang Chen and Yan Ling continued to sit there, their wounds starting to slowly heal themselves as they took deep breaths. After a few minutes passed, Liang Chen leaned his head against the back of Yan Ling's, breaking the silence.

"Ey, Yan Ling, could you take out one of the pills from my interspatial ring and feed it to me? My hands don't seem to listen to my orders right now."

His left arm was practically completely mangled, and all the fingers on his right arm were shattered and twisted, his arms simply refused to move in this state. Yan Ling let out another giggle, but she didn't do as he said, she instead took out a strange green paper covered in crimson writing from her interspatial ring, slapping it onto the back of Liang Chen's head with a laugh.

"That's Senior Sister Ling to you, when will you learn that?. And no need for a pill, this thing will work much better. Father gave me some convoluted explanation of how it worked, but I tuned out halfway through. Let me say it like this, that's that Yan family quality!"

After speaking, Yan Ling took out another piece of paper, sticking it to her own body. Once the paper was stuck to Liang Chen's body, a thick stream of energy poured into his body, flowing through all his veins and spreading to every part of his body. The energy was thick and potent, but it felt like a gentle spring breeze, the scent of sweet flowers and honey tickling Liang Chen's nose.

With the energy spreading through his body, he was shocked to see his injuries heal at a rapid pace, even his bones starting to put themselves back in their original position. He didn't have to guess too much to realize what this was, it was a talisman created using a portion of the Sect Master's own Qi. Creating such a talisman not only required a lot of resources, but also expended a lot of Qi and time, so it was clear that Yan Ling's father was quite worried about letting her leave the sect. With this talisman, Liang Chen had no need to worry about his injuries, so he quickly thanked Yan Ling.

"Yan family quality huh? Knowing you, that can't be too good for me, but thank you."

Yan Ling responded with a laugh, but didn't say anything, the two returning to silence as they let the talismans heal their wounds. Liang Chen found it a peculiar sensation to have his own bones return to their original position, but it wasn't as painful as he expected it to be.

Another few minutes passed, the worst of their wounds almost becoming fully restored. Liang Chen wasn't sure just how strong the Sect Master was, but looking at the strength of these talismans, he was certainly tremendously powerful, probably to a degree Liang Chen couldn't even fathom just yet.

Liang Chen and Yan Ling both stood up, their legs still trembling slightly as they were practically out of energy. Yan Ling swept the surroundings with a quick gaze, looking at the ruined buildings that were a result of Liang Chen's battle, chuckling lightly.

"I told him, didn't I? If Little Freak goes wild, the entire castle area might turn to ruins. Your fight didn't last for that long, but four buildings were completely ruined, imagine how many more had been destroyed if you kept fighting."

Liang Chen only shook his head with an exasperated sigh, not bothering with giving an answer. Kept fighting, in his state? If he had tried to keep fighting on his own, he would likely have died before he got to destroy any more buildings. After shaking his head, Liang Chen's eyes landed on the corpses of Geng Zhen and Xiao Daibao, his thoughts moving as he spoke up.

"Mind if I take their bodies?"

Both of them had reached the late stage of the Heaven's Gate realm, they were perfect for his Chaos King technique. Since he had killed both of them, his Bloody Soul Sea technique had already taken a part of their soul, but by using the Chaos King technique, he could devour even more of their soul to strengthen his own. Yan Ling had no need for the bodies, so she nodded her head.

"Sure, I have no need for them."

Not only did she not have a need for their bodies, but she also knew that they would be very useful to Liang Chen. Guanyu had told Liang Chen to not tell others about his Chaos King technique, but how could Guanyu not tell the Sect Master about this Supreme Technique once again appearing in their sect? And since the Sect Master knew that Yan Ling wasn't a spy and was rather close to Liang Chen, he ended up telling her.

Liang Chen gave a grateful nod of his head and walked over to the corpses, putting them into his interspatial ring so that he could save them for later when he had more time on his hands. He tossed the interspatial ring of Geng Zhen to Yan Ling, but he kept Xiao Daibao's for himself. Yan Ling didn't reject the ring, as she knew that Liang Chen wouldn't take it back even if she tried to hand it to him.

After dividing the spoils, the both of them left the area and returned to the oval-shaped building where they had been eating breakfast. They were completely out of energy, so keeping their tracking techniques active was out of the question, so they could only search for Song Bowen by checking the building where they had last been together.

The entire building was filled with people who formed an orderly line to a previously hidden staircase that led into the ground. Song Bowen and the chubby Steward Zhan stood by the side of the staircase, directing the line of people. Seeing Liang Chen and Yan Ling move towards them, a mixture of hope and unease appeared on Song Bowen's face, who quickly stepped forward. Liang Chen waved his hand at Song Bowen, allowing him to relax.

"The assassins have been dealt with, they won't be bothering us anymore."

Song Bowen let out a heavy breath, his shoulders relaxing as a grateful expression appeared on his face. If Liang Chen and Yan Ling weren't able to deal with the assassins, most of the people here would have died and the Song family would likely become almost extinct, leaving only the two youngest siblings who were fleeing as well as their parents.

With the confirmation that the assassins were dead, Song Bowen called off the evacuation. He called off the evacuation, but he didn't immediately call back his two fleeing siblings, just in case there were some assassins that were waiting for them to drop their guard. If there really were some assassins hiding, this act of calling off the evacuation could also serve as bait, drawing them out. Doing this might cause the death of him and the siblings that remained, but it was better than calling back the two fleeing ones and causing their deaths.

But luckily, it seemed like there were no more assassins lying in wait, as nothing happened even after two days passed. But Song Bowen still didn't call back the two siblings, deciding to wait until his parents returned before he let his fleeing siblings know that they could return. Only like this could he be certain that there were no more assassins lying in wait.

Liang Chen and Yan Ling didn't retreat to their rooms after letting Song Bowen know that the assassins were dead, they simply continued their recuperation in the dining hall, with Song Bowen handing out orders to everyone else while standing not far from them. Until they restored enough energy to spread out their observation techniques again, they would not leave the side of Song Bowen.

Liang Chen's bloodline was somewhat awakened, while Yan Ling's was still dormant, so his recovery abilities were better than hers. This resulted in him being fully healed five days after the battle, while Yan Ling, whose injuries weren't as severe, was only fully healed seven days after the battle.

They both spread out their observation techniques again, covering the castle area with poison and wind, but they found no one suspicious, so it seemed like there truly weren't any more assassins. They didn't find any assassins immediately, but they didn't lower their guards, continuing a close watch on the entire castle area.

But it seemed like they had earned some rest, as no more assassins showed up to try anything funny. It seemed like neither the Moon Dragon sect or the Ghost Soul sect weren't willing to send over more assassins, as they would either die to Liang Chen and Yan Ling or would die to whatever reinforcement that ended up being called if they sent over any stronger assassins.

Ten days after the battle against Geng Zhen and Xiao Daibao, the king and queen returned to the Snow Mirror nation, and following them were the Storm Wolf disciples that had accepted the sect mission to protect them while they signed the peace treaty.
