Chapter 678 - 677: Revealing the Truth, Making Plans!
"Brother Chun, you’d better continue. I’m done trying," Ye Chen said with a smile.
It’s enough to break the power of the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower on Situ Miao. Let Brother Chun handle the killing.
Even if the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower is promoted to a Sacred Artifact, it can’t act recklessly against a Saint Realm powerhouse.
In the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom, relying on the power of the Holy Artifact Moon Palace, Ye Chen can barely contend with a Great Saint and can kill ordinary Saint Realm warriors, but not all Sacred Artifacts are that formidable.
The Moon Palace is considered above average even among Sacred Artifacts!
Moreover, the Artifact Spirit White Rabbit of the Moon Palace is very special and extraordinary.
The Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower is only a Half-Sacred Artifact, and there is a core restriction set by the Situ Family within its Artifact Spirit.
Of course, if handling Situ Miao doesn’t work out, Ye Chen could actually try to kill some other Saint Realm members of the Situ Family.
Brother Chun’s death sphere, and the three Burning Jade Swords given by Brother Lin, are all treasures for killing Saints.
But... there’s no need for that.
Keep these things as trump cards for desperate situations.
For now, with a group of big shots from the True Martial Hall around, there’s no need to worry about safety, so don’t waste the life-saving treasures.
Shi Fengchun burst out laughing and charged forth.
"Shi Fengchun, the power of our Situ Family far exceeds your imagination..." Situ Miao shouted.
Before he could finish his sentence, Shi Fengchun hurled a punch, and the violent thunderlight caused blood vessels to burst all over Situ Miao’s body, making blood splatter wildly.
"The Situ Family dares to come to our True Martial Hall to yell and threaten. If we don’t make you suffer this time, will you come again next time?" Shi Fengchun sneered and shouted, "I don’t care what Situ Clan you are, dare to invade the True Martial Hall, and you will be slain without mercy!"
Shi Fengchun’s presence was terrifying, with overwhelming killing intent, the raging thunder engulfing Situ Miao.
Screams echoed from the ocean of thunder.
Mrs. Tian, Tian Bugui, Feng Wanli, and others didn’t hold back either, going all out, striving to kill as many as they could!
Holy Blood was drifting in the air, and the power of laws swept through the world, as if the apocalypse had arrived, leaving nothing alive.
"Retreat, go back and tell the Patriarch, we must have revenge!" Situ Miao screamed in agony.
The six Saint Realm powerhouses of the Situ Family each broke through and fled for their lives!
"Boom!"
The area engulfed by the power of the thunder law suddenly erupted with a terrifying roar, with a shocking energy blast sweeping out.
"Go!"
Shi Fengchun’s voice rang in Ye Chen’s ears, and in the next moment, Shi Fengchun’s power took Ye Chen back to the True Martial Hall at an incredible speed.
Above the True Martial Hall, a canopy of light had emerged, resisting the storm raging ten miles away.
The light shield shook, but showed no sign of being breached.
Ye Chen looked at Shi Fengchun and said, "He self-destructed?"
"Yes, didn’t expect that old fellow to be so decisive."
Ye Chen clicked his tongue.
The power of a Great Saint’s self-destruction is truly terrifying. It looks like, in the future, when watching a fight, it would be best to step back a bit.
Moments later.
Feng Wanli, Mrs. Tian, Tian Bugui, and the other six Saint Realm members returned.
Old Tian was in the worst condition, covered in blood, but for dignity’s sake, he didn’t utter a word, holding his head high.
Of the six Saint Realm members of the Situ Family, three were dead, and three escaped.
The Situ Family came with great fanfare to settle the score but suffered a loss once again.
A Great Saint and three Saint Realm members were killed, and even with the deep foundation of the Situ Family, it hurt them significantly.
Moreover, the Situ Family’s Half-Sacred Artifact is gone, a bargain for Ye Chen...
Shi Fengchun smiled warmly at Ye Chen and said, "That tower, did you trick it away?"
Ye Chen said solemnly, "I told them I didn’t want it, but they cried and begged me to take it."
"That thing is always a hidden danger. How about I keep it for you?" Shi Fengchun joked.
"Hall Master Shi, that doesn’t sound fair, does it? If anything needs to be kept, it should be kept by Bright Hall!" Tian Bugui interjected. Ye Chen is a member of Bright Hall, so Ye Chen’s belongings are Bright Hall’s belongings, Shi Fengchun has no chance with it!
Ye Chen said, "Hall Master, Old Tian’s injuries are too severe. I should take him back to Bright Hall for treatment!"
"Hurry and take me back, I feel like I’m dying!" Tian Bugui wailed in distress, almost collapsing.
Ye Chen could hardly watch his exaggerated acting and immediately extended a hand, grabbing Tian Bugui by the collar, and flew towards Bright Hall!
Shi Fengchun laughed, "Alright, let’s all disperse. After two consecutive battles, there shouldn’t be any more fools daring to make a move."
Mrs. Tian and three veteran Saint Realm members of the True Martial Hall departed.
Feng Wanli stood in front of Shi Fengchun, holding a long spear.
Shi Fengchun said blandly, "Letting you stay in the Blood Robe Tower for ten years, that must have been hard on you."
"My life was given by my mentor. Whatever the mentor asks me to do, I have no complaints," Feng Wanli responded.
Shi Fengchun shook his head with a smile, "Actually, you could learn a bit from Ye Chen."
"Please enlighten me, Teacher!"
"Learn... how to be yourself!" Shi Fengchun said with a meaningful tone.
Feng Wanli fell into deep thought.
"Take your time to think. In a few days, I’ll take you and Ye Chen to East Desolate City.
Because of my decision, you’ve missed ten years of glory. This trip to East Desolate City, it’s time for you to shine.
You’re not even fifty yet. By Eastern standards, you’re still part of the younger generation, so don’t be too sullen."
Leaving these words behind, Shi Fengchun turned and left.
......
In a secret room of Bright Hall.
Tian Bugui glared at Ye Chen.
The audacity, you just dragged me all the way back!
I, Tian Bugui, am the Hall Master of Bright Hall, a Saint Realm expert, and you’ve completely stripped me of my dignity!
Ye Chen: "Old Tian, are your injuries okay?"
"It seems I need to teach you the rules of Bright Hall properly!" Tian Bugui’s teeth flashed with cold light.
Ye Chen: "..."
Who are you trying to scare?
"Old Tian, do you recognize this?" Saying this, Ye Chen tossed out a jade token.
Tian Bugui’s eyes widened upon seeing the jade token, completely forgetting about teaching Ye Chen a lesson. He picked up the jade token and said, "The Guardian Token of Li Qing, Great Guardian of the Celestial Demon Sect. Where did you get it?"
"Li Qing, is he reliable?" Ye Chen asked in return.
Tian Bugui’s eyes flickered, "During the internal strife within the Celestial Demon Sect, he remained neutral. Now, he’s being heavily suppressed by Liu Qing, making it hard for him to stand within the Celestial Demon Sect.
I once nearly couldn’t escape while infiltrating the Celestial Demon Sect for a mission. Li Qing lent me a hand."
Ye Chen said, "Would you arrange a meeting with Li Qing?"
"What are you planning?" Tian Bugui stared at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said, "Old Tian, let me tell you a secret."
"Speak!"
"Well... your mentor’s daughter is still alive. Back then, when you were escorting the baby girl and got ambushed, Li Qing saved her."
"What?!"
Tian Bugui shouted excitedly and immediately said, "Where is my junior sister? Tell me quickly, I need to find her!"
"Calm down first," Ye Chen said helplessly.
After a while, Old Tian regained his composure and said, "Hurry up and give me my junior sister’s information. My mentor treated me with great kindness, and on his deathbed, he entrusted me with this, but I couldn’t protect my junior sister... If I can find her, I’ll die without regret!"
Ye Chen said, "Your junior sister is my senior sister..."
Tian Bugui’s gaze at Ye Chen was somewhat bizarre.
Ye Chen said, "My senior sister is perfectly safe. If you don’t want to involve her, don’t look for her yet. We should first get in touch with the Great Guardian of the Celestial Demon Sect, Li Qing, and plan our next steps."
The Sect Leader of the Celestial Demon Sect, Liu Qing, is the enemy who killed both the mentor of Old Tian and my senior sister’s father.
Moreover, Liu Qing must also want to kill me, since I killed his son.
Considering the Celestial Demon Sect’s attitude towards outsiders, it will surely become a hindrance for the Cangzhou True Martial Hall in resisting extraterrestrial threats.
This matter needs to be addressed quickly!
