As the Universe Turns - Chapter 200
Chapter 200 Strain
“People from the Ye Clan?”
Patriarch Guituo’s expression immediately froze. He retrieved the unsealing talisman that he was about to hand over to Hua Weiyang. He looked at the two suspiciously and said coldly, “Come with me, go out and take a look.”
Shit …
Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang both feel bad. What should we do this time? It can’t be the real Ye Lingfeng and Ye Lingxuan, right? Could it be that the Ye Clan had noticed this in just one night? What should we do this time …
“What are you guys thinking? Still not leaving!”
Patriarch Guituo suddenly shouted coldly. Hua Weiyang immediately regained his senses and forced out a smile, “I wonder who it is. Patriarch, please …”
The two of them followed behind. At this moment, they were a little nervous. If the matter was revealed, not to mention that the Seal Release Talisman could not be obtained, it would be a problem whether they could escape completely today. This Patriarch Guituo was an expert at the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm. With the two of them, they could not deal with him. Not to mention the countless disciples of the Ghost Tuoluo Mountain, there were many restrictions. This time, it was really troublesome.
“Idiot, what should we do …”
Hua Weiyang winked at Xiao Chen and sent a secret message.
“Don’t speak, act according to the situation.”
At this moment, Xiao Chen had already prepared for the worst. Even if he had to risk his life, he would still have to obtain the Seal Release Talisman.
Finally, they were outside. They could hardly breathe. However, when they saw the two Ye Family members outside, they couldn’t help but be stunned. It wasn’t Ye Lingxuan and Ye Lingfeng, but the two people who chased after them in Bie Jian Villa, the old man in red and Old man Zi Yi.
Why did these two come to Ghost Tuoluo Mountain? The two exchanged glances, both puzzled.
The red-clothed old man and Old man Zi Yi clearly saw them as well, but they didn’t notice that they were fake. The red-clothed old man said, “Ye Lingfeng, Ye Lingxuan, why haven’t you returned yet?”
Hua Weiyang smiled and said, “Second uncle, third uncle, why are you here?”
“I happened to be passing by. Come and take a look. It’s none of your business. Let’s go back.”
The red-clothed old man flicked his sleeves, his tone neither cold nor hot. Obviously, he did not want Ye Lingfeng and Ye Lingxuan to know their purpose of coming to Ghost Tuoluo Mountain.
“Wait …”
Patriarch Guituo laughed sinisterly and said, “They haven’t taken the Soul Essence and Unsealing Talisman yet.”
“Seal Release Talisman?”
The red-clothed old man and Old man Zi Yi immediately looked at Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang when they heard the words’ Seal Release Talisman ‘. The soul essence was something the clan wanted. There was no problem with that. In the past, the two of them had also come to retrieve it, but what was the purpose of the Seal Release Talisman?
Patriarch Guituo smiled sinisterly and said, “What? Don’t you know that Wu Chen has already been captured back to the Ye Clan?”
“What!”
This time, the red-clothed old man and Old man Zi Yi were shocked at the same time. They had been searching for the two of them for a while, so why had they suddenly been captured back to the Ye Clan?
The two of them looked at Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang at the same time, “What’s going on?”
At this moment, the atmosphere became exceptionally cold. Even Xiao Chen could feel the murderous intent of these two people. Cold sweat was dripping down Hua Weiyang’s back. Suddenly, the incident happened. Now, he could only react as he pleased. He said, “This was ordered by the Second Elder.”
“Second Elder?”
Both of their eyes turned cold as they thought in their hearts, could it be that Ye Qinghe had already caught those two? Why didn’t they know about this? Shit … Not good!
The red-clothed old man immediately said coldly, “You mean that the two of them are now in the hands of Second Elder Ye?”
Seeing that the other party had already fallen into his trap, Hua Weiyang walked up unhurriedly. “Second uncle, third uncle, it’s not that you’re being disrespectful at the moment. It’s just that you two uncles have secretly mobilized your men to capture those two people. In the end, not only did you fail to capture those two people, you even injured so many people. What do you think will happen if the Grand Duke finds out about this matter? You are greedy for merit, yet you’ve lost so many talents of our clan?” He sneered coldly.
Hearing her say this, both of them felt a chill coming from behind them. This time, they went to capture Wu Chen. It was indeed because they were greedy and rash that they lost so many people.
And this matter was secretly done by the Third Elder. It was the Third Elder who wanted the two of them. Now, it was good that Ye Qinghe had picked up a leak first. Who in the clan didn’t know that the Second Elder and the Third Elder had always been at odds? What should we do this time? How are they going to explain themselves when they get back?
“Humph!”
Seeing that the two of them were completely tricked, Hua Weiyang coldly snorted and continued, “But now, the two of them have been captured by the Second Elder, so the two uncles don’t have to blame themselves. As for Third Elder, the Second Elder will naturally go and say it, so there’s no need for the two uncles to worry.”
The meaning of this sentence was obvious. The two of them were tightly pinching their fingers. How could they not worry?
If Liao Wuchen hadn’t been captured, they naturally wouldn’t have been worried, but now that they had fallen into Ye Qinghe’s hands, how could they not be worried? Returning this time, the death penalty will be avoided, but I’m afraid that there’s no escape from a living crime.
Hua Weiyang said, “Then, big brother and I need to return as soon as possible to resume our orders, so we won’t be delayed here any longer.” After saying that, he looked at Patriarch Guituo.
Patriarch Guituo looked at them and smiled coldly in his heart. Seeing that your Ye Clan was fighting amongst themselves, he smiled and said, “Then, this is what Ye Qinghe wants. It has nothing to do with me.” With that, he flicked his finger and sent the two unsealing talismans to Hua Weiyang.
After obtaining the two unsealing talismans, Hua Weiyang’s heart finally calmed down. Patriarch Guituo looked at Feng Zhuyun and said, “Zhuyun, give them the soul essence.”
“Yes …”
Feng Zhuyun walked over and took out a few Soul Cauldrons from his sleeves and handed them to the two of them. His gaze was still ice-cold.
Hua Weiyang accepted the Soul Cauldron and looked at the red-clothed old man and purple-clothed old man. “Then, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, I’ll take my leave with Big Brother first.” After saying that, he immediately walked out with Xiao Chen.
“Wait …”
Suddenly, the red-clothed old man stopped them. His gaze was cold as he asked, “What does Second Elder want to unseal the talisman for?”
The two stopped and Hua Weiyang turned around. “What? Second Elder, do you need to report to your two uncles?”
At this moment, a cold aura pervaded her body, and her eyes became ice-cold to the limit, causing the two of them to tremble at the same time. At this moment, they looked at each other as if Ye Qinghe was standing in front of them personally. They couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts.
After a long time, the red-clothed old man put down the pressure in his heart and said in a deep voice, “It’s alright, you guys go …”
“Humph!”
Hua Weiyang coldly snorted and quickly left with Xiao Chen. After leaving the Ghost Tuoluo Mountain, the two of them didn’t stop. They pushed their speed to the limit and quickly flew out of the Changyin Mountain Range.
On Ghost Tuoluo Mountain’s side, in the Secluded Hall, the red-clothed old man and Old man Zi Yi wanted to stop talking. Patriarch Guituo looked at the two of them with a smile that was not a smile, “No problem. Tell me, what is the purpose of coming to Ghost Tuoluo Mountain this time?”
“This …”
The two of them pondered for a moment. Originally, they had come to Mount Guituoluo to seek help from Patriarch Guituo. Whether they could capture the two of them or not, they could only think about whether they could ask Patriarch Guituo to intercede on their behalf with the Third Elder.
Patriarch Guituo naturally saw through their thoughts. It wasn’t difficult for them to ask him to help, but this favor couldn’t be in vain. The world was bustling with people, all for the sake of profit.
The two of them naturally knew that the person in front of them was only for profit. After a long silence, the red-clothed old man finally said, “Actually, I came to visit Senior this time to tell Senior that when we went to capture Liao Wuchen, we found an ancient soul beside him. It was very powerful.”
“Oh? So?”
Patriarch Guituo was interested this time. He still looked at the two with a smile but not a smile. However, he began to think carefully in his heart. Ancient spirits … was this true? Or was it that the two of them had come to deceive him in order to ask for his help?
The red-clothed old man said, “A very powerful ancient soul. Presumably, Ye Qinghe doesn’t know about it now. This ancient soul is much more useful than the souls of those two …”
“That’s right.”
Old man Zi Yi continued, “Please come forward this time and put in a good word for the two of us. Even if the two of us go through fire and water, we will definitely capture this soul. Although this soul is powerful, it has already been hit by the three Soul Devouring Curses of the Old Ancestor, presumably …”
“Mm …”
Patriarch Guituo stroked his beard slightly, and his expression seemed to be rather complacent, “No matter how powerful a soul is, it’s hard to escape … Wait!”
At this moment, his expression suddenly changed as he stared at the two of them, “What did you just say? That soul beside Liao Wuchen was struck by three Soul Devouring Curses?”
