It seemed that he would be injured, and also in a predicament…
However, seeing that smile, he knew what would happen next. The smile was the same one he wore when he knew that everything was under control.
“Mr. Ye, this is the reason why you will set foot on Jiang Daoshan tomorrow.”
“I’ve studied this mural for a long time. At first, I thought that the young man in the picture was going to lose or die, but if you look carefully, you’ll definitely discover something interesting.”
Li Jiacheng moved a few steps to the side, and Ye Chen’s gaze followed him.
This time, there was a sword floating in front of Ye Chen, on which two words were engraved…
Soul Suppressing!
“Mr. Ye, this sword is one of the two swords on Jiang Dao Mountain, the Soul Suppressing Sword! It was said that Jiang Dao Mountain’s formation, spiritual energy density, and even the fate of Xiangjiang City, are closely related to the two swords.”
“If something happened to Mr. Ye when he faced those people, how could you have gotten this sword? Therefore, I’m sure that not only will Mr. Ye survive on Jiang Dao Mountain tomorrow, but you will also obtain a great opportunity!” “The Soul Suppressing Sword is this opportunity!”
Ye Chen did not say anything. His gaze swept across the remaining scenes depicted in the mural, trying to see if they recorded any more information about his future.
Unfortunately, he could not understand the rest of the scenes at all. Even his own figure was gone.
The other side of the huge mural was blank, as if someone had deliberately concealed the content behind it.
Heaven’s secrets could not be revealed so easily.
Ye Chen retracted his gaze and thought of something. He said, “I went to Jiang Dao Mountain earlier. There was an ancient formation there that I couldn’t break with my current strength. If I can’t enter the formation, then how will the scene in the mural come to pass?”
Li Jiacheng smiled and took out a jade token from his pocket.
“Mr. Ye, this jade token is the key to entering Jiang Dao Mountain. It just so happens that my Li family has two of them. These two keys have been passed down for thousands of years and are extremely precious to my Li family. I’m willing to give one of these keys to Mr. Ye, but…”
Ye Chen knew that what Li Jiacheng would say next would be the Li family’s motive for approaching him. After all, like any major family, the Li family would prioritize their interests above all else.
“Speak, but if you ask for too much, then I will refuse without hesitation,” Ye Chen said lightly, his tone cold.
Li Jiacheng placed the jade token in Ye Chen’s hand and pondered for a few seconds before saying, “Mr. Ye, please help me kill a guardian named Yuan Bilan!”
“I’ll use the secret of my Li family and this key in exchange for the death of one person!”
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. This was the last thing he had expected to hear. Li Jiacheng was willing to sacrifice so much just to kill a guardian?
Putting aside the key, this underground city was something that Huaxia and the martial arts world would fight to the death for! It was a huge deal!
“Why do you want him dead? Give me a reason,” Ye Chen said.
Li Jiacheng clenched his fists tightly, and then his killing intent erupted.His eyes were bloodshot, and he could barely contain his fury.
“Mr. Ye, you probably aren’t aware of this. Yuan Bilan’s martial strength is extraordinary. Before he became a guardian, he did many things that were despised by the heavens! My father was killed by Yuan Bilan many years ago! Just for a treasure! This damned b*stard even tortured my father to death in front of me!”
“This has always been my nightmare and obsession! My revenge will only be complete once we no longer live under the same sky!”
“I’ve endured for many years and did everything I could to send my eldest son to the Kunlun Mountains just to take revenge!”
“However, after my eldest son entered the Kunlun Mountains, I lost track of him, and I don’t know when he will return or even how he is doing. Therefore, I can’t place all of my hopes on him!”
“I am already in my twilight years. If I don’t see this person die, I won’t be able to rest in peace even if I die!”
Seconds later, before Ye Chen could react, this old man knelt in front of Ye Chen!
“Mr. Ye, please grant my wish!”
“No one in the Li family knows about this secret! Everyone thought that I was only interested in Jiang Dao Mountain because of the treasure, but that is just a cover. What is really hidden in the depths of my heart is my desire for revenge!”
Ye Chen fell into deep thought. He had initially wanted to refuse. However, he saw his own shadow in the other party.
His father was also held captive by Fang Zhenye, and he had no idea if his father was dead or alive.
Some of these guardians were outwardly righteous, yet beneath that facade, they hid dirty and evil hearts!
In any case, no matter what, he had to go to Jiang Dao Mountain!
Not only for his origins and the Samsara Graveyard, but also for his father!
Fang Zhenye must die, but those Huaxia guardians that conspired against him had to be killed too!
Ye Chen did not need to think too much to know that Yuan Bilan and Fang Zhenye were naturally on the same side.
“Alright, you have my word,” Ye Chen said without hesitation.
Li Jiacheng’s eyes were filled with ecstasy. Then, he stood up and said seriously, “Mr. Ye, no matter what the outcome is, from today onward, you are the greatest benefactor of the Li family!”
At the same time, In a majestic palace on Jiang Dao Mountain, there was a quiet, sealed stone chamber in its depths.
There were nine elders in the stone chamber.
Although these nine people concealed their auras, their mere presence incited fear among those around them.
The one in the middle was Fang Zhenye, who was holding a sword that was emanating violent spiritual energy.
Ancient words were engraved into the side of the sword…
It was the Soul Suppressing Sword!
A purple-robed elder on the far right frowned and said, “Old Fang, will that kid really come to Jiang Dao Mountain tomorrow?”
Fang Zhenye nodded.
“He will definitely come. The kid’s father is in my hands. He won’t let go of such a good opportunity.”
“Besides, he just appeared at the foot of Jiang Dao Mountain earlier.”
Yuan Bilan, who was not far away, glanced at the sword in Fang Zhenye’s hand and asked curiously, “Old Fang, the Soul Suppressing Sword is our treasure. Are you planning to use it to deal with Ye Chen? Isn’t this too much of a waste?”
“That’s right, that kid is only a unity realm cultivator. Any one of us can kill him, so what’s there to be afraid of?”
Everyone present knew that the power of the Soul Suppressing Sword was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people!
With just a swing of this sword, one could kill experts of a higher cultivation realm! It was that miraculous!
Fang Zhenye looked at the sword in his hand and sneered.
“That kid won’t be so easy to deal with. If anything happens tomorrow, I’ll use this sword to kill him!”
“No matter what, this child must not be left alive! The outcome will be the same no matter which peerless expert is standing behind him!”
