Chapter 2204 Lin Yaqin Arrives
Chapter 2204: Lin Yaqin Arrives Chapter 2204: Lin Yaqin Arrives Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Though the woman wore a white veil that obscured her face, her captivating eyes caused even the stars in the sky to dim in comparison. In addition to her curvaceous figure, which appeared to have been crafted by a divine artist, there was no doubt that this woman was remarkably beautiful. However, if one were to stand before her at that moment, they would find it impossible to entertain any wild thoughts. The reason was straightforward. It was due to the woman’s demeanor, which was extraordinarily cold to the point that it could be called bone-chilling. Merely gazing upon her would instill a sense of life-threatening danger, so who would dare entertain any fantasies? She was the Saintess of the Shenxuan Sect, Lin Yaqin. Beyond that chilling aura, Lin Yaqin also radiated a strong murderous intent. Clearly, her temperament was not only cold, but her sword was also cold. The number of lives she had claimed was surely not insignificant. Simultaneously, her presence was both terrifying and awe-inspiring. Lin Yaqin appeared to be in her twenties, yet her cultivation was already on the verge of reaching the Great Void realm, which was simply astonishing. The disparity between the Divine Kingdom and the outside world was truly immense. Lin Yaqin’s talent was indeed extraordinary, and it was this talent that allowed her to attain the position of Saintess within the Shenxuan Sect. Although the Shenxuan Sect was not the top force within the Divine Kingdom, it was still regarded as a significant sect. Someone on the verge of advancing to the Great Void realm was considered ordinary within the sect, but the reason Lin Yaqin had been chosen was in recognition for her talent and achievements at her age. Upon seeing Lin Yaqin, Zhao Yunhua and the other two disciples greeted her with respect. Lin Yaqin acknowledged them with a slight nod. She did not respond verbally. She remained as cold as ever and simply inquired, “Have you located the Reincarnation Tablet?” Her voice was not as smooth and gentle as that of the average woman. Instead, it was somewhat low and frosty, mirroring her demeanor. Strangely, it carried a unique allure. Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunhua did not dare to be careless. He gestured in a particular direction and spoke respectfully, “Based on our exploration over the past few days, this location is very close to the ruins. Just now, we detected an energy surging into the sky in that direction. The entrance to the ruins should be there.” Lin Yaqin glanced toward that direction and remained silent. She ascended into the air like a beam of light. The others had no choice but to follow closely behind, not daring to delay. At that moment, after Ye Chen had sent Yan Hongyu away, he had somewhat recovered his spiritual energy and was preparing to enter the ruins. However, he suddenly sensed something and turned around. As he turned, several beams of light descended before him. Ye Chen’s gaze fixated on the pure white beam of light. He did not blink, as if he were a beast provoked. He felt an intense threat emanating from that light, and an overwhelming sense of danger! Ye Chen could not help but ask Feng Qingyang, “Feng Qingyang, could this person be…” Feng Qingyang replied, “You are correct. This individual is someone who is very close to reaching the Great Void realm. If you reach the Sealed Gate realm and fully master the soul techniques, you might still have a chance against her, but as you are now, that is not the case.” Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. Simultaneously, his heart skipped a beat. Soon, the beams of light faded, revealing the forms of several men and women before Ye Chen. His eyes flashed as he recognized Chen Meixiang among them. It appeared that these individuals were disciples of the Shenxuan Sect, which made this more of a challenge. After all, he had just killed one of their group members. As anticipated, when Chen Meixiang spotted Ye Chen, she exclaimed, “Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Lin, Saintess, that’s the person who killed Senior Brother Li!” Everyone stood astonished, particularly Lin Yaqin, Zhao Yunhua and Lin Xianyong were already aware of Ye Chen’s presence. However, they struggled to accept the reality that Ye Chen had killed Li Shen. This was the first time Lin Yaqin had also heard of this, and even she found it difficult to believe. At the very least, she had been unable to achieve such a feat when she was a Star Aperture realm expert. If she could not accomplish it herself, then how could the young man before her? Moreover, Ye Chen was only a first-level Star Aperture realm expert, having clearly just broken through. Nonetheless, Lin Yaqin’s gaze lingered on Ye Chen for a moment. The reason was simple; she sensed a mark and a trace of a divine bloodline. This mark was associated with the Divine Kingdom, which caused her brow to furrow slightly. Initially, she had intended to kill Ye Chen without a second thought. After all, his existence could jeopardize their mission. However, this individual bore a mark. According to the rules of the Divine Kingdom, she could not attack Ye Chen. Even though she knew that in the maple forest, the oracle would likely not receive the message sent by the mark, there remained a degree of risk. “Saintess, how should we handle this person?” Zhao Yunhua inquired of Lin Yaqin. “We will kill him,” Lin Yaqin replied nonchalantly. Although it was inconvenient for her to act directly, Zhao Yunhua and Lin Xianyong could certainly do so. Upon hearing this, Lin Xianyong’s lips curled into a vicious and bloodthirsty smile. He had waited, truly waited! Had Ye Chen not shown up, Lin Xianyong would have never had the opportunity for revenge in this lifetime, but now Ye Chen had shown up in front of him. Was this not a chance for him to seek vengeance and release his pent-up frustration? He quickly implored Lin Yaqin, “Holy Maiden, may I be the one to deal with this scum? Junior Brother Li and I shared a deep bond, and he was like a brother to me. I wish to avenge him myself.” “Very well, just be quick about it,” Lin Yaqin responded lightly. Lin Xianyong’s expression turned ferocious. With a swift motion of his hand, a pitch-black spear materialized in his grip as he advanced toward Ye Chen. Although he did not believe that Ye Chen possessed such terrifying strength, he remained cautious, knowing that Li Shen had fallen at Ye Chen’s hands. Therefore, he readied his True God artifact just in case. This spear appeared quite heavy, and the tip of the spear radiated an aura of malevolence. Clearly, countless lives had been extinguished by this weapon. Lin Xianyong, spear in hand, approached Ye Chen. He was slightly taller than Ye Chen. He lowered his head slightly, looking down upon Ye Chen, his eyes filled with disdain and cruelty. “Kid, let me ask you, did you kill Li Shen?” Lin Xianyong inquired coldly. “That is correct,” Ye Chen replied calmly. Lin Xianyong’s expression became even more menacing, and his smile grew colder. “Very well,” he said icily, “You dared to admit it, huh? Did you really think you were invincible just because you could kill Li Shen? “Hehe, let me inform you, Li Shen’s strength is insignificant. Do not assume that I will be as easy to deal with as he was.” “No matter how pathetic Li Shen may be, he is still a disciple of our sect, so you will pay a steep price for his death!” Ye Chen regarded Lin Xianyong with an unchanging expression, clearly not taking Lin Xianyong’s threats seriously at all. Witnessing this, Lin Xianyong’s face darkened. Even within the sect, few dared to disregard his words. Was this trash from the Lingwu Continent truly unafraid of death? “Do individuals from the Divine Kingdom always spout so much nonsense?” Ye Chen asked calmly.
