Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You were actually pretending to be asleep?” Ye Chen asked.
Xia Ruoxue blinked her beautiful big eyes, and a blush appeared on her fair face. She smiled and said, “I wasn’t pretending to be asleep. 1 only woke up when you carried me.”
Ye Chen placed Xia Ruoxue on the bed.
“Rest well.”
Just as he was about to leave, Xia Ruoxue’s arm clung onto Ye Chen’s body.
The night was silent.
The next day, Ye Chen woke up very early. While the two girls were still asleep, he went downstairs to cook congee.
This congee was different from ordinary congee. Yesterday, he had gotten a lot of medicinal herbs from Medicine King Valley, and he infused the congee with these herbs, which made it very beneficial for those who consumed it.
It would even help one’s cultivation improve significantly.
Soon, the entire villa was enveloped by a refreshing fragrance, which woke them up. They were shocked to find Ye Chen busy in the kitchen.
“Little Chen, this congee. Isn’t it too fragrant…”
“This congee isn’t just fragrant. You’ll find out when you eat it.”
The two girls quickly scooped a bowl of congee and started eating, and spiritual energy surged into their bodies.
They felt their bodies filled with power!
This feeling was amazing!
At this moment, the two girls no longer cared about their manners and started wolfing down their food.
Ye Chen looked at the two of them with a smile on his face. However, this smile quickly turned serious when he sensed the Samsara Graveyard shaking.
“Brat, come in,” a cold voice rang out.
Ye Chen quickly found an excuse and headed to the third floor of the villa.
He closed the door, took out the black stone, and was instantly transported to the Samsara Graveyard, where the black-robed old man was waiting.
He noticed that the black-robed old man’s aura had weakened.
Was it because of what happened at the Medicine King Valley yesterday?
At this moment, the black-robed old man said, “Do you still remember what you promised me yesterday?”
Ye Chen had not forgotten. After all, he had borrowed the old man’s strength to break the seal in Xiang Chengdong’s body yesterday. In return, he had agreed to fulfill a condition.
At that time, Ye Chen did not think too much about it. What great things could such an expert from ancient times ask him to do?
“I didn’t forget.”
“Alright.”
The black-robed old man nodded and continued, “I’ve been observing the stars for the past few days. Tonight, there will be a phenomenon where the five stars are aligned, and a lunar eclipse will happen. If things are as 1 predict, something will definitely appear tonight. Go and bring it back. I need this thing.”
Ye Chen had indeed seen reports of a lunar eclipse on the news over the past few days, but what the hell was this about five stars aligning?
However, since he had promised the other party, he naturally had to keep his word.
“Senior, where is the exact location of this thing?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
The black-robed old man clenched his fist and a map that Ye Chen had placed inside the Samsara Graveyard some time ago floated over to Ye Chen.
Then, the old man pointed with his finger, and a ray of starlight shone on a certain spot on the map.
“It’s here.”
Ye Chen stepped forward and took a glance. His expression was a little solemn.
“It’s actually in Hui’an Province.”
After that, Ye Chen returned to reality and searched up the exact location on his phone. It seemed to be in the area around the Thousand Peaks Mountain in Hui’an Province.
This was a famous mountain, and he vaguely recalled that he had been there with his parents when he was seven.
Ye Chen was about to call Xiao Deng when Zhu Ya called.
“Mr. Ye, are you free today? I just got news that…”
Before Zhu Ya could finish, Ye Chen said with a strange expression, “Don’t tell me you want to talk about Thousand Peaks Mountain…”
On the other end of the line, Zhu Ya was stunned. Her expression was as if she had seen a ghost as she exclaimed, “Mr. Ye… How did you know?”
She had just received this news, and it had just happened too!
How could she not be shocked?
“Does your Zhu Clan have any people at Thousand Peaks Mountain?” Ye Chen asked.
After some time, Zhu Ya came back to her senses and replied, “Yes, Mr. Ye. My good friend is in the area around Thousand Peaks Mountain. Just a few minutes ago, a strange phenomenon appeared in Thousand Peaks Mountain! Many people will soon find out about it. If you want to come along with me, I’ve already arranged for a private jet.”
Ye Chen pondered for a few seconds before nodding.
“Alright, come and pick me up.”
“Mr. Ye, I’m on my way. 1’11 be at Mingcui Villa in five minutes.”
The call ended there.
Ye Chen did not even bother to change his clothes. He said a few words to the two girls, and then left.
Soon, Zhu Ya’s Bentley appeared at the entrance of the villa. Ye Chen hopped on, and the car sped toward a private airport, where a plane was waiting.
Ten minutes later, they were well on their way to Hui’an Province. When they approached, Ye Chen looked in the direction of the Thousand Peaks Mountain and found that there were large dark clouds gathered overhead, as well as flashes of lightning.
At this moment, an extremely solemn voice rang out in his mind.
“Remember, do whatever it takes to get this thing. This thing doesn’t just concern me, it also concerns the Samsara Graveyard.”
This was the first time he had heard the black-robed old man speak in such an urgent tone. It seemed that he might have to go all out.
“I might as well tell you one more thing.. The power of that thing can open two
tombstones at the same time!”
