Chapter 2363 2337 Dark Currents Surge (Second Update)
Chapter 2363: Chapter 2337: Dark Currents Surge! (Second Update) Chapter 2363: Chapter 2337: Dark Currents Surge! (Second Update) “So that was why I planned to secretly bring Fen Ying and Sun Yi here, already having Sect Master Cang settle them down.”
Just then, an elderly man suddenly came up to Ge Qing and whispered a few words into his ear; the next second, Ge Qing’s complexion changed dramatically.
“It’s bad, the secret transfer has been discovered by those forces!”
“Damn it! They’re coming for the Mystic Moon Sect!”
“What did you say!” Bai Zhentang, who had been silent all this while, suddenly roared furiously, his anger rising endlessly. His violent aura uncontrollably burst out, soaring into the sky and blasting a huge hole in the dome of the Mystic Moon Sect’s main hall!
At the same time, in a royal palace of the Lingwu Continent, a middle-aged man exuding the aura of the Great Void and possessing a dignified bearing sat on the dragon throne, none other than an emperor of the Lingwu royal family. By his side stood several trusted ministers and a favored prince.
At this moment, the emperor was frowning slightly, his face grave as he continuously tapped the armrest of the dragon throne, seemingly pondering over something.
Noticing the emperor’s expression, a young prince below, with a stern face, couldn’t help showing a trace of urgency; this man was Sikong Feixing, who had once had a brief encounter with Ye Chen!
Sikong Feixing bowed to the emperor and said, “Father, Ye Chen is my good friend, and I consider him the greatest genius of the Lingwu Continent. Now, some are slandering him as a Blood Demon Mountain Master, defaming his bloodline as a demon seed, and even trying to snatch others in our territory, how can our royal family tolerate such wicked acts?”
At that moment, a man with a cold expression by Sikong Feixing’s side scoffed and said:
“The greatest genius of Lingwu? Haha, I admit, according to the records, this Ye Chen once seemed to be excellent, but now? What use is even the best genius when he is dead?
“Once dead, he’s even less than a waste! For a dead person, our empire has to confront those top-tier forces, including two from the Ten Great Families? Haha, Feixing, you’re confused.”
Sikong Feixing glanced at the cold man and said expressionlessly:
“Is that so? Brother, Ye Chen was my friend when he was alive, and he still is in death! He might have become the pride of our empire, a pride for our entire lives!
“If our subjects knew that there was once a genius called Ye Chen from the Divine Fire Academy who stood proudly above all the monstrous geniuses on the Profound Ascension Rankings, and this is how we treat him after his death, wouldn’t they feel disheartened?
“Moreover, having interacted with Ye Chen numerous times, based on my understanding, he is not a man who would die so easily…”
The cold man disdainfully swept another look at Sikong Feixing and said to the emperor: “Haha, not so easy to die? Do you think the eyes of so many powerhouses are blind?
“Father, please rethink this, my word remains the same, it’s not worth it for a dead man!”
Meanwhile, the emperor’s eyes sparkled incessantly…
In the Nine Remoteness Kingdom, within the Imperial Palace.
Ninth Princess had swollen eyes from long crying; her small face was filled with a pleading look as she knelt in front of the Nine Remoteness Kingdom’s emperor, clutching his sleeve, “Father, please help Brother Ye Chen, he once saved Xiao Jiu’s life, he is Xiao Jiu’s benefactor…”
The Nine Remoteness Kingdom’s emperor looked at his daughter with heartache; after learning of Ye Chen’s death, Xiao Jiu’s Dao heart had been unstable, which had almost led her into a deviation. Although it was caught early and treated without major issues, her aura was extremely weak at this moment.
She didn’t even have the strength to stand up, yet she had been pleading for Ye Chen for two hours already…
However, the Nine Remoteness Kingdom’s emperor still sighed and gently pulled his sleeve back from Ninth Princess’s hands, helplessly saying:
“Xiao Jiu, the Lingwu Continent is a world of martial arts, extraordinarily brutal. Indeed, Ye Chen was a dazzlingly monstrous figure, but here, great success often means countless bones dried out; now that he is dead, he is nothing…”
“Moreover, our Nine Remoteness Kingdom, in order to delay the Mu family from discovering that Mu Ye has died, has already sent ten strong individuals to pay tribute to foster relations with the Mu family, leaving us with not much power remaining…”
“Plus, with the demon race sealed and phenomenon occurring repeatedly, I sense that soon, both the demon race and the Nine Remoteness Kingdom will face a great catastrophe, we truly cannot spare any power.”
“Father!”
Xiao Jiu suddenly raised her head, those black, bright eyes now filled with a heartbreakingly sad look!
“Father, I know all that you said, but please forgive your daughter for being willful this once! If this time you refuse to lend a hand to save Brother Ye Chen’s friend, your daughter will kneel before you forever!
“If something untoward happens to Brother Ye Chen’s friend, then your daughter has only death to apologize to Brother Ye Chen…”
“Ninth Princess, you!” the emperor of the Nine Remoteness Kingdom exclaimed in urgency, knowing that the Ninth Princess was serious in her speech—that even if he forced her to rest, in the end, she would certainly seek her own death…
Ninth Princess was his most beloved daughter!
The same scene was also unfolding in the Chu family, secret realms, and other places…
At that moment, the entire Lingwu Continent was engulfed in an atmosphere of an impending storm…
…
Myriad Swords Palace.
The atmosphere was tense.
Everyone was prepared for battle.
Even Xia Ruoxue radiated an intense chill!
Her eyes harbored anger!
But more so, there was firm belief!
She did not believe that Ye Chen was dead!
Impossible!
“Ice Sword predecessor, I will go to Mystic Moon Sect now! What of the Lingwu Continent’s ten top-tier forces! As long as I am here, I will not allow them to harm Sun Yi and the others!”
“Sun Yi is my best friend, and now that Ye Chen is gone, I will not permit anyone to hurt her.”
Meanwhile, the Ice Sword predecessors and many mighty warriors of the Myriad Swords Palace held their Dragonslayer Swords!
They were ready to fight for Ye Chen at any moment!
Although they might not match the strength of the Ten Great Families!
But Ye Chen had once protected them, and now, with the Mystic Moon Sect in trouble, they would spare no cost to help!
The Myriad Swords Palace was born because of Ye Chen and was willing to die for Ye Chen!
Then Ice Sword Saint King on the stage, after a long moment with his eyes closed, opened them.
“Xia Ruoxue, you must not go.”
“You are also Ye Chen’s woman; they have not yet investigated you. Your going would only complicate matters more.”
“And your power is not enough yet.”
“Even if I went, it would not suffice.”
Xia Ruoxue was slightly angry and about to say something when the Ice Sword Saint King continued, “There is one thing I can assure you, Ye Chen is still alive.”
“This situation arose because of Ye Chen, thus we must have faith in Ye Chen; he can solve this.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Ruoxue and everyone present were astonished.
The Ice Sword Saint King had always presided over the Myriad Swords Palace; how could he be so certain that Ye Chen was still alive!
Of course, they didn’t know that the Ice Sword Saint King’s divine soul originated from the Samsara Graveyard, through which he could perceive the connections within the Samsara Graveyard!
Indeed, Ye Chen was still alive!
