Chapter 284: Dao!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bao Xinhe’s mouth twitched. This was the first time he had ever been called trash. However, the problem was that he was not able to refute her words at all!
“So, is there anyone more powerful than you around here?” Ji Lin asked.
Bao Xinhe shook his head.
“As far as I know, almost all of the higher-ranked experts on the grandmaster rankings are not here. Some have gone overseas, and some are seeking opportunities in the mountains.”
“So you’re saying that you’re the strongest now?” Ji Lin muttered. She felt a little bored.
Bao Xinhe was stunned. He smiled bitterly.
“Senior, aside from those on the grandmaster rankings, there are still some top-notch experts who have concealed themselves. These experts are focused on their cultivation and don’t care about the grandmaster rankings at all…”
“Do you know where these people are?”
Bao Xinhe shook his head as he said helplessly, “Senior, I really don’t know!”
Ji Lin felt that it was impossible for this fellow to lie under her spiritual pressure, but just as she was about to say something, a jade pendant on her waist flickered.
She grabbed it unhappily.
This was because her sister, Ji Siqing, had told her that she should return to the Kunlun Mountains if the jade pendant flickered. Otherwise, she would have to bear the consequences.
“Didn’t she say that I could stay outside for ten days to half a month? It’s only been a few days, yet I already have to go back. 1 haven’t had enough fun!”
She stood up. Because she was a little angry, the aura she emitted was extremely terrifying.
When Bao Xinhe looked at Ji Lin walking over, his face turned pale.
Could it be that she wanted to silence him?
“Senior, please spare my life!”
Bao Xinhe was desperate. Between his reputation and his life, he chose the latter without hesitation!
If he died, all of his efforts in cultivating would be wasted!
He had only just reached the top 10 of the grandmaster rankings! He had a bright future in front of him!
Ji Lin glanced at Bao Xinhe and sneered,””Are you sure you want to live?”
“Yes! Of course I do!” Bao Xinhe nearly shouted.
“Are you willing to become my slave?” Ji Lin asked.
Bao Xinhe’s face stiffened. He was a grandmaster, yet he was going to become someone else’s slave!
Inwardly, he was furious. However, he could not do anything to this little girl!
One wrong move would be all it took for his life to end!
“I… I’m willing.”
After Bao Xinhe said this, he seemed to have aged by more than ten years.
Ji Lin nodded in satisfaction. She then forced out a drop of her blood essence and placed her finger on Bao Xinhe’s forehead.
“Don’t resist! If you do, I’ll kill you.”
A few seconds later, Ji Lin removed her finger and said, “There are two things I want you to do, and you must fulfill them without fail!”
“First, prepare some snacks for me and pack them in two boxes! From now on, you have to personally bring two boxes of snacks to the Kunlun Mountains on the 3rd of every month. I’ll contact you then!”
Hearing this, Bao Xinhe almost spat out a mouthful of blood. She had controlled him over such a trivial matter?
“The second thing is, during this period of time, pay attention to a man named Ye Chen. If he comes here and encounters any trouble, you must help him at all costs! Even if you die, you cannot allow him to suffer harm. Do you understand?”
“Understood.”
Ji Lin took out a photo and handed it to Bao Xinhe.
“If you fail to do these two things well, I won’t just erase your cultivation, I’ll turn you into a bona fide crippled person!”
“Yes, yes, Master!”
“Hurry up and prepare the snacks,” Ji Lin said.
Ignoring his injuries, Bao Xinhe headed straight for the door to do as he was told.
Jiangnan Province, Mingcui Villa.
Ye Chen returned to his room and shut the door.
He took out the black stone and focused his mind. He was instantly transported into the Samsara Graveyard.
The dense spiritual energy here was refreshing, but he was not here for that.
Ye Chen’s gaze fell on the tombstones, which were shaking continuously, as if something was about to rush out.
“What’s going on?”
Ye Chen took a few steps closer and suddenly felt the blood dragon rush out his body. It suddenly coiled around a tombstone…
It was the third tombstone!
A powerful aura overflowed from the tombstone, which condensed into sword intent that guarded the tombstone.
“Could it be that the ancient expert within the third tombstone is different?”
Ye Chen felt that it was all quite unusual. He could even tell that the Dragonslayer Sword was affected, as it was trembling violently.
He took a few steps forward involuntarily. It was as if there was a force pulling him forward.
Soon, he arrived in front of the third tombstone.
Kacha!
A crack appeared on the tombstone, and the words disappeared. A black mist surged out from within.
Only then did Ye Chen come back to his senses. Had he triggered the third tombstone?
Crap!
He was planning to keep it as a trump card!
There was no danger now, so why would he activate the tombstone?
At this moment, the black mist condensed into the figure of a black-robed old man, who suddenly raised his head and stared at Ye Chen with his extremely cold eyes.
“Samsara Graveyard Master, we finally meet. I’ve been waiting for this day for countless years.”
“How long can you stay around?”
Ye Chen’s expression was rather unsightly due to the wasted opportunity.
He expected to hear the words “a few hours,” but was completely taken aback when the old man said, “Ten days to a month, or even longer.”
“So long?”
The old man was expressionless. “I won’t give you knowledge or information like the previous two. Your current cultivation level is too low, so you won’t benefit from it at all. It will only be a waste.”
“Instead, I want to teach you the Dao that is most suitable for you.”
“The Dao that is most suitable for me?”
The old man nodded, his eyes flashing with a cold gleam.
“Slaughter Dao.”
“What’s that?” Ye Chen asked.
“Watch this!”
The black-robed old man suddenly disappeared. A second later, he appeared behind Ye Chen with a longsword aimed at his neck.
Ye Chen jerked his body sideways but the sword still slid into his skin, and blood began to flow out!
Ye Chen quickly used his true qi to close the wound and consumed a blood-amassing pill.
After adjusting his breathing, he simply stared at the black-robed old man in front of him.
Were the ancient experts of the Samsara Graveyard not supposed to help him?
Why had this one attacked him instead?
“Today, I’ll teach you a sword technique called the Bloodthirsty Slash!”
