The footsteps that were not deliberately suppressed woke up the madman who was rarely quiet. A terrifying roar that sounded like a ghost's cry and a wolf's howl came from the front, mixed with the clanking sound of chains being pulled. It made people imagine a terrifying beast struggling and roaring in an attempt to break free from its shackles.
The darkness before them could not obstruct Ye Wuchen's vision, nor could it obstruct Oculum who could freely control the power of darkness. At the same time, they saw the man who was covered in ash and black, with disheveled hair, chained up by golden chains … It was indeed a man, not a beast.
At the same time, the darkness did not blind the madman's eyes. Looking at the two strangers who were slowly approaching him, he suddenly screamed even more violently. His two waving hands clawed desperately, as if he was trying to break free from the chains and tear their bodies apart. The two people in front of him, a man and a woman, did not show any surprise or fear when facing him. Instead, they were abnormally calm. As he roared madly, even his heart beat faster.
Ye Wuchen stopped less than two meters in front of him, and Tong Xin also stopped beside him. The two of them just quietly looked at this lunatic who was so close to them. The madman seemed to have sensed something. His roar weakened slightly. His long hair revealed two faint rays of light as he quickly sized up the two people.
This was the most direct reason why Ye Wuchen deliberately asked Shui Mengchan to capture him and bring him to Nanhuangzong. As long as it was a place he had been to, Xiangxiang could use her unique spatial power to instantly arrive there. Everything was for this day, to welcome that person, and to give a big gift to Nanhuangzong who no longer needed to exist.
"Nan 'er, come out."
A dazzling golden ray flashed in the dark space. The Southern Emperor's sword that had not appeared for a long time was held in Ye Wuchen's hand. He took half a step forward and waved his hand, cutting the golden chains that bound him.
Wherever the Star Slashing Sword went, the indestructible Demon Locking Chains were like water that had been sliced open, silently breaking and scattering to the ground, hitting the damp ground with dull thuds. With just one strike, all the Devil Sealing Chains wrapped around his body were easily cut apart, allowing him to regain his freedom. Ye Wuchen did not put away the Star Slashing Sword. He placed his hand on the hilt with the tip of the sword on the ground. He looked at the man who had forgotten about the continuous roars and said calmly, "Shui Yuntian, you are free. This place has been sealed with a soundproof barrier. No matter what you say, no one outside will be able to hear it. "
Shui Yuntian's body remained in its original position. His expression was lifeless and his eyes were lifeless. Although he was somewhat prepared in his heart, he still did not immediately recover from the great surprise of his freedom. Other than himself, no one could understand the dream-like feeling of suddenly regaining freedom after being locked in this place for more than twenty years. He lowered his head to look at his hands, then at his feet. His gaze gradually became focused. He turned his head away and fixed his eyes on Ye Wuchen, staring at him without moving. After twenty-three years of torture, it was easy to imagine how strong his state of mind had become. Other than a brief moment of absent-mindedness, he did not feel excited or surprised. He calmly looked at the two people in front of him.
After a moment, he suddenly made a strange movement. He raised his right hand and fiercely hit his abdomen. Then, his hand moved quickly from his chest to his neck and quickly pinched a few times.
Ye Wuchen's heart skipped a beat. He did not make a sound and looked at him without saying a word.
* Ugh … *
Shui Yuntian's body fiercely flung forward. From his mouth, he suddenly spat out an object that flickered with golden light. At the same time, the Star Slashing Sword in Ye Wuchen's hand was suddenly covered with a layer of golden light. Whether it was the color or the intensity of the light, it was strangely the same as the Star Slashing Sword, as if they were resonating with each other.
Shui Yuntian picked it up and held it in his hand. He used his tattered clothes to carefully wipe away the mud and water on it until it was completely clean, without a single trace of impurities. His movements were extremely gentle, as if he was caressing the most precious and fragile thing in the world.
"Southern Emperor's Jade." Ye Wuchen looked at the palm-sized, sword-shaped jade pendant in his hand and called out its name in a low voice. Back then, in front of Yan Tianwei, Yan Tianwei had used a bow-shaped scarlet jade pendant to confirm that the Calamity Bow in his hand was the "Northern Emperor's Jade". Nanhuangzong also had the Southern Emperor's Jade that confirmed the Star Slashing Sword's true form.
"That's right, this is the Southern Emperor's Jade. It is the symbol of every generation of Nanhuangzong's Sect Master. It is also something that my Nanhuangzong absolutely cannot abandon. It is thousands of times more precious than those countries' Imperial Jade Seals. Back then, I swallowed it when they couldn't see it … even if I die, I will not let them take it away … they are not worthy! "Shui Yuntian held the Southern Emperor's Jade in his hand as his voice filled with resentment slowly spilled out from the corner of his mouth. The Southern Emperor's Jade was one of the reasons why he persevered and did not die.
The resentful voice stopped. He abruptly raised his head and took a step forward, kneeling heavily in front of Ye Wuchen. "Nanhuangzong's first generation Sect Master, Shui Yuntian, greets the Holy Master! I thank the Holy Master for saving me. I, Shui Yuntian, will definitely follow the Holy Master from now on. I will do anything for you, and my heart will never change! If I go against this promise, may the heavens and earth destroy me! "
He knelt down and uttered an incomparably firm vow without any hesitation or hesitation. Ye Wuchen nodded slightly and went forward to help him up. "Shui Yuntian, it has been hard on you all these years. Don't worry, since you knelt to me so cleanly and called me 'Holy Master', I will not betray your trust and loyalty. Do you know who I am? "
Shui Yuntian stood up and said, "No matter who the Holy Master is, Shui Yuntian's loyalty to the Holy Master is only right and proper. There is no need for any reason or repayment … Is the Holy Master surnamed Ye? The person beside the Holy Master, is she the one who terrorized the world twenty years ago, killed Shui ManTian and severed Shui Yunlan's arm, causing Nanhuangzong to suffer a huge calamity?! "
Ye Wuchen nodded his head and said with a carefree smile, "As expected of Shui Yuntian. Even though you haven't seen the light of day for twenty years, you have never lost your eyes and ears."
"Hahahaha," Shui Yuntian also laughed heartily, "This is all thanks to Shui Yunlan. Every time he is depressed, he would come to see me in a disgraceful state to release the hatred in his heart. He would find a way to balance his morbid mental state, but he also let me know many things that I should know. As for the matter a few days ago, the entire sect suffered a huge calamity. It would be hard for me not to know about it. As expected of the Holy Master of my Nanhuangzong. Only you, Holy Master, can cause such a storm in Nanhuangzong. Hahahaha, hahahaha! "
He opened his throat and laughed maniacally. However, his voice did not have the hoarseness and strangeness that he usually had when he laughed crazily. He was also not worried that his laughter would be heard by the people outside. This was because Ye Wuchen had just told him that no matter what he made, no one outside would be able to detect it. At this moment, facing this young man with the Star Slashing Sword, Shui Yuntian did not have any suspicions towards him and vented his emotions without any qualms.
"For you to laugh like this, it seems that you also feel that there is no need for the current Nanhuangzong to exist." Ye Wuchen looked at him and said.
Shui Yuntian's eyes narrowed and his gaze darkened. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, there is no need for the current Nanhuangzong to exist … because the current Nanhuangzong is no longer worthy of the title 'Southern Emperor'! Mixed blood flows in their bones. The reason and mission for the existence of Nanhuangzong has long been abandoned by them. They do not deserve to exist, do not deserve to exist! "
Ye Wuchen slowly narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Then … if the current Nanhuangzong is destroyed, would you be able to accept it?"
Shui Yuntian's expression changed slightly and then slowly calmed down. He stared at Ye Wuchen's face for a while and suddenly sighed. "Destroyed … hehehehe. No one knows how long Nanhuangzong has existed. After so many years of reproduction, the power of Nanhuangzong is enough to cover the sky … but Holy Lord, do you know why the number of people in Nanhuangzong and the Northern Emperor Sect has never exceeded ten thousand? "
"Rules." Ye Wuchen answered him with two words.
"That's right, rules." Shui Yuntian's eyes flashed. "The Southern Emperor and the Northern Emperor are indeed the supreme deities who broke through the primal chaos. When they left behind their bloodlines, they did not leave out a single source of disaster. The total number of people who have the blood of the Southern Emperor and the Northern Emperor, whether pure or mixed, cannot exceed ten thousand. If the number reaches ten thousand, no matter how hard they try, there will not be a one hundred and first person born. This is the rule set by the Southern Emperor and the Northern Emperor. Without this rule, the Nanhuangzong and the Northern Emperor Sect, who have the blood of God, have already spread across the entire Tianchen Continent for thousands of years, far surpassing ordinary humans. They have completely broken the balance of the Tianchen Continent and made the entire continent the exclusive territory of the descendants of the Southern Emperor and the Northern Emperor. It is also because of this reason that the power of Nanhuangzong and the Northern Emperor Sect has maintained a relative balance for so many years. There has never been a big jump. "
Ye Wuchen nodded. He had heard these words from Yan Tianwei before. He continued, "You are telling me that even if the current Nanhuangzong is completely destroyed, as long as there is still a direct descendant alive, the Nanhuangzong will never truly be destroyed. So … "The corners of Ye Wuchen's mouth curled into a meaningful smile." You simply do not care about the destruction of the Nanhuangzong that no longer needs to exist! As long as you, or your son, are still alive, a hundred years later, another new Nanhuangzong will rise. "
"That's right. So, Holy Master, you do not need to have any misgivings. "Shui Yuntian said resolutely." This is not destruction, but cleansing. The current Nanhuangzong will only become a hand of evil that will harm the world. If it continues to exist, it will only smear an eternal stain on the ancestors and the entire Nanhuangzong. You are the Holy Master, the true master of Nanhuangzong. When Nanhuangzong has become dirty, cleansing it and leading a brand new Nanhuangzong is your right. "
