The old manâs eyes narrowed as he sensed that something was wrong. Although he had a gut feeling about this, his mind told him that it was impossible.
The middle-aged manâs expression turned a little strange.
âIs it that trash from the Ye Family in River City?â the old man finally asked.
âYes, Old Master.â
Hearing this, the old manâs face turned pale with anger.
Pa!
His palm slammed onto the table beside him, shattering it.
The antique tea set that was worth tens of millions was also completely destroyed. The tea splattered everywhere, including on the old manâs clothes.
The middle-aged man knew that the old man would react this way, so he looked helpless.
The old man stood up and said angrily, âThat bastard actually dared to kill a member of the Jiang family? Does he want to die so badly? In that case, the treasure also fell into his hands as well, right?â
At this moment, the middle-aged man said, âOld Master, thatâs not the case. Thereâs a rumor in Huiâan Province that the thing doesnât seem to be with Ye Chen, but with Master Jingdao.â
The old man frowned.
âHow did that guy get involved? Hmph!â No one has the right to hold on to something I want. Send someone to personally contact him! If he doesnât hand it over, then just get rid of him.â
The middle-aged man did not act immediately. Instead, he said in a low voice, âOld Master, my guess is that things are not that simple. Master Jingdao and Miss Jiang Rongâs relationship was quite good, so the fact that Master Jingdao took action under these circumstances means that heâs obviously trying to protect that bastard, who probably has it.â
The old manâs eyes flashed with a trace of coldness and anger. He waved his robe and said coldly, âIn that case, order someone to make that kid spit it out! Heâs not qualified to keep something like that!â
The middle-aged man sighed. The old man would probably never forgive the Ye family.
Every time this family was mentioned, the usually calm old master transformed into a beast that had lost its mind.
Jiang Rong used to be the apple of his eye, but now they were like enemies.
Even though the couple was locked up in Ghost Prison, he did not go to visit them.
Perhaps this was the cruelty of the martial arts world.
Those who had no value to the Jiang family had to be mercilessly abandoned. The Ye family was actually quite pitiful.
Of course, he could only think about these things in his heart, and would not dare to give voice to such thoughts.
Old Master Jiangâs anger was not something that a servant like him could withstand.
Seeing that the middle-aged man was still standing there, the old manâs eyes flashed with anger.
âWhat are you waiting for? Get to work!â
âOld Master, thereâs still one more thing 1 havenât told you,â the middle-aged man said respectfully.
âNext time, if you donât tell me everything in one go, youâll be expelled from the Jiang family!â
The old manâs cold voice rang out, and the entire hall was covered with a trace of killing intent!
The middle-aged man felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him. He no longer hesitated and quickly said, âOld Master, that bastard has come to Capital City.â
âWhat?!â
The old manâs eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. This bastard actually dared to set foot in the capital?
Hmph! This fellow was signing his own death warrant!
Sensing Old Master Jiangâs anger, the middle-aged man asked softly, âOld Master, do we need to kill that bastard?â
Old Master Jiang snorted, but hesitated for a few seconds. Then, he waved his hand and said, âKill that bastard? He is not worthy! His blood will only taint the Jiang familyâs swords!â
âSend an expert from the Jiang family to find this kid and ask him to hand over the treasure. If he refuses to hand it over, break the bustardâs limbs and cripple his cultivation. 1 donât want this kid to appear in front of me for the rest of my life!â
The middle-aged manâs expression froze. He had never expected that the man who dominated the Huaxiaâs martial arts world would treat a junior like this.
After all, Ye Chen still had the blood of the Jiang family flowing in his veins.
However, back then, Jiang Rong had rejected the marriage engagement and chosen an ordinary person to marry. She had even given birth to a bastard with mortal roots. This incident had brought shame to the Jiang family.
In fact, for more than ten years, the old master did not even participate in the martial arts worldâs general assembly, and countless families used this matter to mock the old master.
How could he not be angry?
SighâŚ
For a moment, he actually sympathized with Ye Chen. However, he did not dwell on the matter and quickly nodded.
âYes, Master.â
Capital City University, teachersâ apartments.
Ye Chen sat cross-legged on the sofa. He circulated the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun technique. The black stone revolved around his body.
The black stone seemed fixated on the Earth Soul Mystical Stone on the table, as if it wanted to devour it, but was stopped by Ye Chen.
âI need this stone to cultivate. 1â11 give you the rest.â
The black stone seemed to be protesting and the speed at which it revolved around his body increased. Ye Chen did not hesitate anymore. He extended his hand and grabbed the black stone and stuffed it into his pocket.
Although this stone contained the Samsara Graveyard and could be considered a priceless treasure, Ye Chen was the owner of the Samsara Graveyard and the black stone. He was the one in charge!
Ye Chenâs five fingers formed a seal, and then his body began to release a baleful aura. Shortly after, the blood dragon appeared in the room.
âBreak!â
With a furious roar, Ye Chen tapped the Earth Soul Mystical Stone with his finger, causing it to split into two.
In an instant, the room was covered in dazzling seven-colored light!
A total of seven types of spiritual energy could be sensed in the room nowâŚ
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, fiendish, and mystic!
The seven different rays of light shot straight at Ye Chen, and his body and soul felt extremely comfortable.
âI thought that my cultivation speed would slow down after coming out of the Kunlun Mountains. However, thanks to the opportunities Iâve obtained out here, Iâve managed to make the equivalent of ten yearsâ worth of progress in the Kunlun Mountains.â
Ye Chen was overjoyed, and became even more excited.
As the pores around his body opened, Ye Chen felt a powerful and boundless energy surge into his body.
He circulated the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun technique, and devoured this energy like an endless black hole.
At this moment, the spiritual energy in the room was more than a thousand times stronger than in the outside world!
The more energy the Earth Soul Mystical Stone released, the stronger Ye Chenâs aura became. The blood dragon also benefited greatly from this spiritual energy!
As more and more of this powerful energy surged into his body, Ye Chenâs expression contorted with pain. The waves of energy threatened to tear his body and meridians apart. However, at the same time, they tempered his body.
The blood dragonâs shadowy figure also became more tangible. Its body began to expand, and the entire room was filled with dragon roars..
