Ye Chen looked at the land certificate in his hand and shook his head helplessly.
Bai Lixiong had left too quickly. Actually, there was one more thing he did not say.
When the old man took Mu Wanning away, he had noticed a jade token hanging from the old manâs waist. Ye Chen had seen that jade token before. It was the symbol of a sect in the Kunlun Mountains.
Back then, Ye Chen had stepped into the Kunlun Mountains because the old manâs sect only focused on the medical path and other unorthodox paths. It was not suitable for Ye Chen to cultivate martial arts.
This was also one of the reasons why Ye Chenâs medical skills were divine.
The old man knew that Ye Chen was determined to take revenge, so he took him to various sects in the Kunlun Mountains to become their disciple. However, he was met with merciless mockery.
None of the sects in the Kunlun Mountains were willing to take Ye Chen in, as he had been tested to have mortal roots.
In their opinion, Ye Chen would never be able to reach the unity realm in his lifetime. Therefore, allowing someone like that to join their sect would only tarnish their reputation.
Ye Chen clearly remembered those arrogant faces!
In their eyes, someone with mortal roots was not worthy of entering the Kunlun Mountains!
However, Ye Chen had defied the odds and reached the unity realm, and this was only just the start!
After being rejected by all of the martial arts sects, the old man could only bring Ye Chen to another place where killing and fighting were revered.
That place was known as the Conquerorâs Purgatory of Fighters!
The old man thought that Ye Chen would not last more than ten days inside there, and even believed that Ye Chen would die. However, he did.
A gust of cold wind blew past and Ye Chen snapped back to his senses. He looked at the starry sky in the capital and muttered, âWhen the matters in the capital are settled, it will be time to go back to the Kunlun Mountains and take back what Iâm owed.â
âI wonder if those people are doing well?â
âThe old man should be lying on the rocking chair and relaxing now, while Ji Siqing⌠She should have already become an expert that countless people in the Kunlun Mountains look up toâŚâ
âMr. Ye, what kind of place is the Kunlun Mountains? Who is Ji Siqing?â Zhu Ya asked curiously.
She instinctively felt that Ji Siqing was a girlâs name and that she was very important to Mr. Ye.
Ye Chen shook his head and walked toward the Porsche.
âSheâs just a friend. Letâs go. Itâs late. Itâs time to go back.â
âAlright, Mr. Ye.â
Since Ye Chen refused to tell her, she would not press him any further.
However, a trace of disappointment appeared in Zhu Yaâs eyes, which disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, in the Kunlun Mountains.
Above a mysterious palace, dark clouds gathered and countless lightning bolts flashed in the sky.
Countless young men and women heard the commotion and rushed out, staring at the door of the palace.
They held their breaths as if they were waiting for something.
Suddenly, a pillar of light shot into the sky from the depths of the palace!
An illusory phoenix rushed out and headed straight for the sky!
The phoenix chirped, and the stars seemed to move!
Seeing this scene, the young men and women clenched their fists tightly, their blood boiling.
âSenior Sister Ji has broken through again! This is the seventh time this year!
This is too terrifying. Is she still human?â
âDonât forget that Senior Sister Ji is one of the top ten geniuses of the Kunlun Mountains. She has a heaven-defying spiritual root, so who can compare to her?â
âThere was actually an illusory phoenix this time. Could it be that Senior Sister
Ji has advanced a major realm this time?â
âSenior Sister Ji is the treasure of our sect. No, she is the treasure of the entire Kunlun Mountains. Of course, she is also the perfect goddess in my heart! If only Senior Sister Ji would say a word to me.â
âStop dreaming. Other than cultivating, she doesnât care about anyone or anything!â
âThen youâre wrong. Senior Sister Ji is only interested in Ye Chen. Have you forgotten how much Senior Sister Ji spoke up for that piece of trash in the past five years? How could Senior Sister Ji care so much about someone with mere mortal roots? I really canât Peking understand it. My cultivation and talent are many times better than that guyâs.â
While everyone was discussing, a cold voice rang out from inside.
Whoever dares to talk about others behind their backs will bear the consequences! If you really want to say it, come and say it to my face!â As soon as he said that, the man who had called Ye Chen a piece of trash spat out a mouthful of blood, and he fell to the ground.
Everyone gasped when they saw this, and they immediately stopped talking.
In the depths of the palace.
Ji Siqing opened her eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. Her entire body was emitting an extremely powerful aura.
She went over to the window and looked at the stars above, muttering, âI wonder if heâs managed to reach the unity realmâŚâ
âSigh, the spiritual energy in Huaxia is thin, and itâs very difficult for ordinary people to break through. I hope that he obtained some fortuitous encounters.â
Huaxia, the Lin familyâs residence in Capital City.
The two elders of the Blood Alliance sat in the seats of honor, while Lin Juelong and Father Lin sat to the side.
A burly man stood in the middle of the living room, exuding a powerful martial aura. The insignia on his chest was that of the Iron-Blooded Camp.
âDuan Chengfeng,â Father Lin cupped his hands and said enthusiastically. I have heard a lot about you. May I know what made you come personally?â
The Lin family still had to respect the Iron-Blooded Camp, and that person.
Duan Chengfeng took out a letter of challenge from his pocket and handed it to Lin Juelong. He said seriously, âThis is a letter of challenge personally written by that person. Mister Lin, please accept the challenge!â
Lin Juelong and Father Lin were slightly surprised when they heard this.
Lin Juelong was on par with the number one expert in Huaxia, yet there was actually someone daring enough to challenge him?
Was this person courting death?
Even if there were hidden experts in Huaxia, since those hidden experts did not bother with the rankings, they were not interested in such challenges.
Therefore, it could not be one of them.
Lin Juelong snorted coldly, took the letter of challenge, and tore it open!
âLin Juelong, Ye Chen challenges you to a battle in the Martial Arts Arena!â
His gaze instantly turned to the name?
The date was the day after tomorrow, and the challenger was actually Ye Chen!
Father Lin saw that Lin Juelongâs expression was a little off and asked, âWho issued the challenge?â
Lin Juelong sneered and released his true qi, tearing apart the letter of challenge.
âWho else? Iâll kill this ant! Five years ago, I could have easily crushed him, and it wonât be any different this time!â
Upon hearing this, Father Lin said in surprise, âYe Chen?â
Lin Juelong nodded and stood up. He looked at Duan Chengfeng and shouted, âThis letter of challenge saved his life! I originally wanted to personally go and kill him today or tomorrow, but since he wants to humiliate himself, I will agree to his request!â
âInform him that I, Lin Juelong, accept this challenge!â
