Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A few seconds later, Elder Mu tried to forcefully prop himself up.
However, he realized that almost all of the bones in his body were broken!
Puchi!
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
He stared at Ye Chen and exclaimed, “How is this possible? How did you get so strong?”
At this moment, waves of shock surged through Elder Mu’s heart. It had not been that long since the incident in Hui’an Province, yet this kid was actually several times stronger!
Only Grandmaster Zheng could defeat them this easily!
Who the f*ck could explain what was going on?
His heart was in turmoil, but he was at a loss as to what to do or say.
Ye Chen took a step forward and stood in front of Elder Mu.
“It must be very uncomfortable now. Back then in Hui’an Province, I was at your mercy. Do you still remember?”
Elder Mu spat out another mouthful of blood. At this moment, he was in extreme pain!
The broken ribs pierced his skin and internal organs. He kept spitting out mouthfuls of blood, but he steeled himself and took out a dagger from his waist, wanting to end his own life.
However, before he could go any further, an invisible pressure descended upon him. He could not move!
“I just want to know one thing. How much do you know about the Qinling Mountains?” Ye Chen asked calmly.
Elder Mu laughed coldly.
“I’m a dying man. I’ll keep my secrets forever. Haha! Don’t for one second think that you can get any information out of me!”
Ye Chen shook his head. A dozen silver needles appeared in his hand and shot out in unison. When they were embedded into Elder Mu’s body, they began to vibrate intensely.
The very next second, Elder Mu’s face was filled with fear. A bone-corroding pain spread throughout his entire body…
This feeling was unbearable, and it felt like he was dying again and again!
“You… What did you do to me?”
Elder Mu’s trembling voice rang out. He could see the silver needles in his body from the corner of his eye, and knew that this matter must have something to do with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it silently.
“The acupuncture points of the human body are very magical. They can heal, but also cause pain. I wonder if you can withstand the pain in the time that it takes me to smoke this cigarette.”
Elder Mu felt the pain become more and more excruciating. His entire body trembled, his pupils were red, and he was foaming at the mouth!
He wanted to endure it, but he simply could not!
“Stop! Make the pain go away! I’ll tell you everything!”
Elder Mu finally gave in.
Ye Chen put out the cigarette, and realized that he had only smoked half of it. He clenched his fingers and a few silver needles flew out. Only then did Elder Mu feel a little better.
“Tell me,” Ye Chen said calmly.
“The incident with the Qinling’s dragon vein this time actually involves many forces. Although the dragon vein is related to the fate of Huaxia, it is a great tonic for ancient martial artists and cultivators. Once they absorb the power of the dragon vein, their strength will definitely increase greatly,” Elder Mu said.
“Continue…”
Elder Mu looked deeply at Ye Chen and continued, “Even if something happens to Qinling’s dragon vein, it won’t affect the capital. Grandmaster Zheng and those few forces already prepared a plan a few months ago. This matter is highly confidential, and I only found out recently.”
“Where’s Bai Lixiong? Did those forces set a trap for Bai Lixiong?” Ye Chen asked.
Elder Mu shook his head.
“I’m not sure about Bai Lixiong, but I know that Grandmaster Zheng came across the bodies of some of the Iron-Blooded Camp’s experts.”
“Many people found out about Qinling’s dragon vein, and they wanted a piece of the pie as well. The situation is getting out of control, and more and more forces are pouring into the Qinling Mountains, not just from Huaxia, but other countries as well.”
“Where is Zheng Renjue?”
“Grandmaster Zheng is currently 30 miles away from here in the depths of the Qinling Mountains. This is also the place where the dragon vein is being fought over. If I’m not wrong, Bai Lixiong should also be there. That’s all I know. I beg you… Give me a quick death…”
Ye Chen sorted out his thoughts. Thirty miles to the west of this place was where Bai Lixiong had gone missing.
He nodded and turned to walk towards the west.
Seeing that the Ye Chen had not killed him, Elder Mu’s eyes revealed a trace of joy. Suddenly, a few cold gleams flashed past!
“Ye Chen, you despicable person! Ahhh…”
A heart-wrenching cry rang out.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen channeled his true qi into his feet and rushed forward.
To be merciful to the enemy was to be cruel to oneself, and Ye Chen would not make that mistake. Despicable? So what? The rules of this world were written by the victors!
Ten minutes later, Ye Chen was not far from the coordinates.
The deeper he went into the Qinling Mountains, the more he realized that the surroundings were filled with the scent of blood.
Corpses were strewn all over the ground, and some of them were even dismembered. It was a shocking sight!
It was obvious from this just what kind of battle had taken place here not long ago.
Furthermore, Ye Chen also noticed that a hundred meters away, someone had already sealed off the perimeter to prevent unwanted people from entering.
Besides the people from Huaxia’s Department of Martial Arts, there were also cultivators!
A few of them had very strong auras, and were clearly unity realm cultivators. Were they from the Kunlun Mountains? It would make sense. After all, the dragon vein was very beneficial to both ancient martial artists and cultivators.
Even the ancient mighty experts were excited over a small dragon vein, much less one as large as this one.
This was one of the primary dragon veins of Huaxia!
While Ye Chen was deep in thought, he overheard an argument. He focused his gaze and noticed that two young girls in the distance were about to barge in, but had been stopped by a few experts from Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department.
These experts even fiercely pushed the girls to the ground without any mercy!
When Ye Chen’s gaze caught sight of the girls’ side profiles, his expression changed slightly. These two girls were none other than Bai Libing and Zhu Ya!
Why were they here? How did they get wind of this?
Bai Libing’s hand had already been injured. She looked coldly at the person in front of her and said, .”My father is Ba Lixiong. Are you sure you want to stop me? Can you bear the wrath of the Bai family?”
“I know my father is inside. If you don’t move away, all of you will die!”
There were also a few wounds on Zhu Ya’s body. She was holding a long sword that was stained with blood, but the blood was not hers.
It was obvious that Zhu Ya had killed someone. Moreover, from the bloody aura around her body, she had not only killed one person!
Ye Chen looked at the experts guarding the entrance in the distance. When these people heard that she was Bai Lixiong’s daughter, their gazes became sharp and filled with cold killing intent..
