Chapter 1609: I Can
“Hahaha! The young are to be feared! The young truly are to be feared!”
Surprisingly, the one who should feel the most offended was not offended in the slightest. In fact, the Chief Libationist was stroking his beard and guffawing heartily. “That is all I need to hear to know that your future achievements will not be inferior to mine, boy.”
“Thank you for your praise, Chief Libationist.” Ye Qing saluted the Chief Libationist before looking back at the trio. “Allow me to inform you one more thing. King Taishan is involved in this matter!” Xuanyuan Wang frowned. “What does King Taishan have to do with this?”
“The reason the Earthly Sovereign wasn’t able to slay the Four Evils was because they were that strong, but also because King Taishan had interfered.”
Ye Qing replied, “The reason King Taishan did this was because he wished to borrow the Four Evils’ hands to massacre humankind and plunder their souls. He wished to rebuild Fengdu, complete himself, and perfect his Great Way.”
“What?” Haotian Hong, Yue Hanhai and Xuanyuan Wang blanched and nearly jumped to their feet when they heard this. “Are you certain about this?” Haotian Hong’s first instinct was to deny Ye Qing’s words. He subconsciously looked at the Chief Libationist.
“I was not present for the conversation, but I believe the boy’s words.”
The Chief Libationist added, “Also, I can confirm that King Taishan showed an unusual amount of interest in the boy and the Earthly Sovereign Bell.”
The fact that the Chief Libationist was supporting Ye Qing indirectly proved that he was telling the truth.
Ye Qing continued, “For his own conspiracy and plan, King Taishan will spare no effort in hunting down the man who inherited the Earthly Sovereign’s will to slay the Four Evils, namely the wielder of the Earthly Sovereign Bell.”
“If I may ask, are you confident that you can handle King Taishan?” Once again, Haotian Hong, Yue Hanhai and Xuanyuan Wang fell into silence.
Who was King Taishan? He was a natural deity and an ancient one. He was a terrifying existence on the same level as the three sovereigns. Not even Haotian Hong and Xuanyuan Wang, both wielders of the Clear Sky Mirror and the Xuanyuan Sword, dared to say they could absolutely deal with the deity. Naturally, Yue Hanhai could only fare worse than them.
