Chapter 482: Soul Suppressing Sword
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation 1 Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
To Fang Zhenye, Ye Chen’s existence was a ticking time bomb, one that would eventually be powerful enough to threaten his life.
He had been wary of the experts or the sect behind Ye Chen, but after learning about what Ye Chen had done, he had no choice but to kill him to eliminate this
future threat.
At the same time, he felt that the odds were in his favor. Ever since Ye Chen had appeared, he had always been alone, and had never relied on the powers of others to accomplish his goals. This was also why no one knew which expert of
force was behind him.
However, even if this kid came from the Kunlun Mountains, it would be too late by the time the expert or sect discovered what had happened.
The Soul Suppressing Sword in his hand trembled slightly and flickered with a dazzling light, as if it would break free at any moment.
Fang Zhenye gripped his sword tightly and barely managed to control it. Although this Soul Suppressing Sword was powerful, the biggest problem was that it was uncontrollable.
Even with his strength, he would have to channel all of his true qi into the sword if he wanted to use it.
“Old Fang, it’s been so long, yet you still can’t suppress this sword? You can’t refine it or bind it with blood essence?
Yuan Bilan looked at Fang Zhenye’s trembling arm and asked in surprise.
Fang Zhenye nodded and placed the Soul Suppressing Sword into the bronze scabbard. Only then did it stop vibrating.
There were beads of sweat on his forehead as he panted slightly.
■’This thing is extremely powerful. I’ve tried many seals to no avail. It still won’t recognize an owner. Right now, I can only barely use it, and I can’t unleash its full potential.”
Yuan Bilan was intrigued by this.
“Let me try!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Suppressing Sword appeared in his hand. The heaviness almost made Yuan Bilan stagger.
He steadied his body and pulled the sword out. However, a mere second later, the sword flipped out of Yuan Bilan’s hand, and even flew out with the scabbard and stabbed itself into the wall!
The entire stone chamber shook violently, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the wall where it had embedded itself into.
One had to know that this stone chamber was constructed from Gang Yan Xuan
Stone, which was shockingly hard.
Bang!
Yuan Bilan felt his blood surge, and a powerful shockwave swept in his direction. He took seven steps back before he could stabilize his body.
His old face turned pale and red. As one of the guardians, he was actually humiliated by a sword!
It was extremely embarrassing!
The other guardians laughed and joked about it.
“Old Yuan, you can’t do it.”
“If people find out that a guardian can’t compare to a sword, they’ll laugh themselves to death.”
Fang Zhenye also stroked his beard and said, “Old Yuan, do you still not believe me now? This sword is very strange. I studied it for half a year before I could barely control it. How can you expect to control it in just a few seconds?”
Yuan Bilan looked a little angry. However, just as he was about to speak, someone knocked on the door of the stone room.
“Come in,” Fang Zhenye glanced at the door and said.
Not long after, a man in his thirties walked in and knelt in front of Fang
Zhenye.
He was one of Fang Zhenye’s disciples, Han Guang.
For the past few days, Han Guang had been in charge of investigating Ye Chen’s background.
“Han Guang, is there any news about that kid?” Fang Zhenye asked curiously. Han Guang nodded and said, “Ye Chen left with Li Yuncheng of the Li Clan. According to the information, Ye Chen should be in the Li family’s residence at
the moment.”
Yuan Bilan’s eyes narrowed when he heard the name of the Li family. He remembered what happened back then.
At that time, he had killed many people from the Li family, but he had spared Li Jiacheng. In his eyes, some people were ants that even he did not have the urge to kill.
Even if they were given a hundred or a thousand years to take revenge, the result would still be the same.
If he wanted to erase them, he could do so anytime!
Now, it seemed that this ant was standing with Ye Chen. Could it be that he was plotting revenge?
Arrogant! Foolish!
Fang Zhenye frowned and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he said, “The Li family’s development over the past few decades has been a little strange. One of them was even chosen by a sect in the Kunlun Mountains. Not only that, but many of the Li family members have also been cultivating faster. Now that the Li Clan is standing together with Ye Chen, it’s inevitable that people will be suspicious.”
“Since the Li family doesn’t know what’s good for them, Han Guang, take twenty people and wipe them out,” Fang Zhenye instructed.
At this moment, Yuan Bilan said, “Old Fang, wait! There’s no need for those 20 people. Leave the Li family to me. Back then, I killed everyone from the Lt family, but I didn’t kill them all. I let them rise again just so they can feel despair again. Since that’s the case, I’ll wipe them out today!”
Fang Zhenye hesitated for a few seconds before nodding.
“Alright, but Old Yuan, you can act later. Wait for Ye Chen to leave the Li family.”
Yuan Bilan snorted coldly and waved his sleeves, “Old Fang, do you really think that this kid has the ability to kill me? Ridiculous! Perhaps if Ye Chen meets me, he won’t even have the chance to step into Jiang Dao Mountain tomorrow. If this kid still doesn’t leave the Li family, I’ll be his nightmare!”
After saying that, Yuan Bilan disappeared from the stone chamber. Fang Zhenye wanted to say something, but his words turned into a sigh. Hopefully what he feared would not come to pass.
Li family’s residence.
Li Jiacheng brought Ye Chen around the entire underground ancient city.
There were still workers working in parts of the ancient city that had not been completely excavated. However, because this matter involved a core secret of the family, all of these were core members of the Li family.
Naturally, the excavation efficiency would be lower.
Other than the mural, Ye Chen did not find anything else related to him.
The entire underground ancient city looked like a religious ritual square. Many places were engraved with ancient characters, many of which were so obscure that he could not understand them.
However, Ye Chen noticed that some of the characters were similar to the runes of spiritual talismans.
-Mr. Ye, I had someone draw the mural earlier. It’s an exact replica,” Li Jiacheng said.
He could tell that Ye Chen was only interested in the mural and nothing else m the ancient city.
“Alright.” Ye Chen nodded and accepted it naturally.
He could not understand many of the scenes depicted on the mural now, but perhaps it would come in handy in the future when he encountered certain situations. After all, if the murals could really predict a part of the future, it would be a good thing for him.
“In that case, Mr. Ye, let’s head back up. I’ve asked the chef to make some Jiangnan delicacies. I hope Mr. Ye can…”
Before Li Jiacheng could finish speaking, the entire underground ancient city flashed with a red light!
Li Jiacheng’s expression changed drastically as he exclaimed, “Not good! Someone broke into the Li family’s residence!
“Where is Wei Ying now?” Ye Chen’s eyes were serious.
The first person he was worried about was Wei Ying!
“Mr. Ye, follow me!”
The two of them rushed toward the elevator!
