On a mountain peak of Stone Taishan, the wind was blowing gently.
Ye Tianze was carrying Tuoba Yun on his back, looking in the direction of Stone Taishan City from afar. His expression was solemn.
"It's over. Stone Taishan City is over." Tuoba Yun let out a sigh.
The majestic Stone Taishan City no longer existed. Under the ravages of tens of thousands of spirit beasts, even the weather-beaten city walls had been reduced to flat ground, let alone a complete building.
He turned his head to look at Ye Tianze, only to find that there was no emotion on his cold face. "Aren't you sad at all?"
"What does that have to do with me?" Ye Tianze replied, then turned and left the mountain peak.
At the same time, on the other side of Stone Taishan City, Ye Baitian was carrying Ye Tianhai, who was covered in blood, and was on the verge of collapsing.
He did not look back, but Ye Tianhai did, only to find that the once glorious city had long been reduced to a flat ground. All the people he knew had died under the beast tide. No one survived.
He did not even have time to feel sad before he found that the Great Ancestor carrying him had stopped. Ye Tianhai looked up and saw two black-robed men waiting for them in front.
Ye Baitian's expression was extremely ugly. He did not expect that the family business of his ancestor would be ruined by his hands.
But he did not expect that he would be half a step into the gates of hell after escaping from death.
"This is good. We don't have to do it ourselves." The silver-masked assassin looked at Stone Taishan City in the distance without the slightest pity. "Are you going to kill yourselves, or do you want us to do it?"
"Sigh." Ye Baitian sighed and put Ye Tianhai down. Holding the silver-white spear, he said, "I know a big secret that concerns your life and death. I am willing to tell you in exchange for our lives!"
Seeing that the two were unmoved, his eyes were filled with the will to die. "If I fight you with all my strength, even if I can't kill you in your current situation, I can at least severely injure you!"
The silver-masked assassin was silent for a moment, then said, "Only one of you can live."
"Alright." Ye Baitian looked at Ye Tianhai and said, "I can't accompany you on the road from now on."
"Great Ancestor …" Ye Tianhai shed tears.
Ye Baitian wiped away his tears and said, "Even if the men of the Ye family die, they must die with integrity."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and slapped his palm onto Ye Tianhai's head. Ye Tianhai, who was caught off guard, was immediately killed by the palm strike.
This scene shocked Acheron's two assassins. Even in death, Ye Tianhai did not expect that his beloved ancestor would sacrifice his own life instead of his own.
"What's the secret?" Silver Mask's eyes were filled with fear. This old man was even more ruthless than he was.
"Ye Tianze is still alive," Ye Baitian said. "If the two of you go back to report on your mission, I'm afraid you'll definitely die."
"That's impossible. He went there facing the spirit beast. How could he be alive?" Bronze Killer retorted.
"He obtained a heaven-defying inheritance in a mysterious mountain cave. Given his wisdom, there's no way he would walk down a path of death." Ye Baitian also told the two of them about the scene of him turning around as he left.
This reminded them of Ye Tianze's terrifying speed when he suddenly burst out.
"Whether your secret is real or not remains to be seen. You want to trade this for your life?" Bronze Killer's face was cold, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"You can try!" Ye Baitian held his gun, thinking of fighting to the death.
This scene reminded them of Ye Tianhai's death. This old man in front of them was far more decisive than they thought. Once he knew he was going to die, he would definitely fight them to the death.
Although Silver Mask's strength was far superior to Ye Baitian's, he was targeted by a sixth-rank spirit beast in the beast tide just now and suffered serious injuries.
"You can go." After careful consideration, Silver Mask made a decision.
Ye Baitian smiled. He put away his gun and walked toward the two of them fearlessly, brushing past them.
Seeing him leave, Bronze Killer said, "The mission is to kill all of them. Is it appropriate to let him go?"
"It's not worth fighting with him. Besides, our main target is that strange young man!" Silver Mask said coldly. "If we don't complete the mission, we'll both die when we go back!"
Under Yonghe's ghost mask, Bronze Killer's face turned pale. They had killed countless people, but they were not afraid of death.
…
A few days later, in a hidden cave in Stone Mountain.
With Ye Tianze's help, Tuoba Yun finally expelled the last trace of murderous aura in his body. The only thing he needed to do now was to repair his damaged organs.
With his strength in the Hidden Spirit Realm, it was not difficult for him to recover his organs. However, he still felt that everything was like a dream.
Once upon a time, he thought that he was definitely going to die. However, he did not expect that Ye Tianze would be so busy these few days. He would either put strange herbs on his wounds or feed him some strange pills.
However, what was even more terrifying was that every time the murderous aura in his body erupted, Ye Tianze would emit a strange suction force that sucked away the murderous aura in his body.
In less than a few days, his body was only left with external injuries. The murderous aura in his heart was completely expelled.
"After half a month of recuperation, Hallmaster will be as lively as before. However … we can't go back to Stone Mountain City," Ye Tianze said.
Tuoba Yun's heart ached. That was his root!
"Although the Ye Family was heartless to you, you grew up there. Don't you have any feelings for them?" Tuoba Yun asked.
Sometimes, he felt that Ye Tianze was very contradictory. He looked cold on the surface, but deep down, he was affectionate and righteous.
However, in the face of the destruction of Stone Mountain City, he was indifferent. The coldness that came from his bones made his hair stand on end.
"If someone stabbed you and then apologized to you, would you forgive him?" Ye Tianze said with a smile. "You might be able to do it, but I'm not you."
Tuoba Yun smiled bitterly. He did not hesitate and said, "Now, can you tell me who you are?"
* 1/1
"Guess who I am?" Ye Tianze asked back.
Tuoba Yun was somewhat hesitant, but he still spoke of his guess. "I guess … it has something to do with your background. Your mother left after giving birth to you. Many people say that Ye Baitian killed her, but I don't think so."
"After your Spirit Blood was stolen, not only did you not die, you even shocked the world. This can only mean that the memories hidden in your bloodline have awakened." Tuoba Yun continued, "I know that there are many ancient clans in Skydragon Country, and even outside of Skydragon Country. Their bloodline inheritance contains ancient memories!"
As he said this, Tuoba Yun stared at Ye Tianze. He originally thought that Ye Tianze would be moved by this.
However, he discovered that Ye Tianze was not moved at all. There was not a trace of emotion on his face. Even his eyes were calm.
