The Painted Wall
"That's enough. As far as I know, you're not that pretentious."
When he saw Ye Zichen standing by the window in silence, Su Yiyun couldn't help but joke behind his back.
When he heard this, Ye Zichen turned around. He'd long since suppressed the sourness in his nose, but his eyes were still a little red.
Ye Zichen rolled his eyes, then punched Su Yiyun, "You're right.
"You're overthinking things …. But what's going on with you? How did you end up a monk?"
"That's a long story."
Su Yiyun rubbed his bald head, then smiled and explained everything that had happened over the past few years.
From Su Yiyun's explanation, Ye Zichen learned that when he'd activated the formation, his soul had indeed fused with it. Only when Ye Zichen's divine tribulation shattered the formation did his soul scatter and scatter, along with the formation. His consciousness also disintegrated.
However, when he woke up, he found himself lying on a bed.
Before long, a tender-looking youth appeared in his room. Ye Zichen accepted him as his disciple, and from then on, he lived in the youth's palace.
Only after a dozen years did he learn ….
That youth was Emperor Hades.
"So you're Emperor Hades's disciple now?"
Ye Zichen's eyes were filled with astonishment. Emperor Hades was an existence on the same level as the God Emperor, Yao Emperor, and Demon Emperor. Su Yiyun was his disciple, and Ye Zichen was Su Yiyun's brother. From now on, he could do whatever he wanted in the God Realm.
"Sort of."
When he saw Ye Zichen's astonished expression, Su Yiyun nodded.
However, Ye Zichen wasn't particularly satisfied with his answer. He frowned. "What do you mean by 'sort of'? Yes means yes, and no means no. What do you mean by 'sort'?"
"I can't be sure either!"
Su Yiyun shrugged. "Although I'm Emperor Hades's disciple, he's never taught me anything in all these years. But if I had to say no, we really do refer to each other as master and disciple, and we're the only two people in the palace. "
"Aren't you his disciple? As for not teaching you martial arts, that's a bit of a shame. But as long as you're Emperor Hades's master and disciple, that's enough. "
When he thought about how he now had such a powerful backer, Ye Zichen's confidence soared.
If anyone dared to provoke him again, he'd just shove Su Yiyun up in front of them and announce that he was Emperor Hades' disciple.
What? You're not Hades's palace, but you're here now? What? What? Are you going to follow me from now on? I'm right. Let me tell you. I'm., Brother, there's nothing... Although, I'm, for you, I'm not.. I's Bas is is. You. You.

"Why does your master want to see me?"
Emperor Hades had specifically said he wanted to see him. No matter how arrogant Ye Zichen was, he didn't dare put on airs in front of an existence of that level. After Su Yiyun told him the news, the two of them didn't delay at all. They hurried from Ice Blue City to Emperor Hades's palace in the River Styx.
As soon as they entered the River Styx, Ye Zichen couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
In just half a minute, they'd already sensed the auras of at least ten supreme-level savage beasts heading their way. Their eyes were filled with ferocity. If it weren't for the medallion in Su Yiyun's hand, the savage beasts would've torn them apart long ago.
"We're here."
An hour later, Su Yiyun and Ye Zichen reached the bottom of the valley and stopped outside a temporary palace.
When they landed, Ye Zichen instinctively looked it up and down. In the end, his gaze landed on the Black Demon Dragon's eyes.
"Don't look."
Su Yiyun immediately tried to stop him, but to his surprise, Ye Zichen didn't notice anything amiss at all.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Zichen looked at him in bewilderment. When he saw that Ye Zichen was fine, Su Yiyun couldn't help but frown.
"You don't feel any discomfort?"
"How could I feel discomfort?" Ye Zichen was speechless.
That shouldn't be the case!
The Celestial Sand Hound Divine Generals had been heavily injured when they looked into the Black Demon Dragon's eyes. If Emperor Hades hadn't intervened, they might have sustained serious injuries.
Emperor Hades had told him that even ordinary rulers would fall into a daze if they looked into the Black Demon Dragon's eyes.
Anyone below the diviner level would find it hard to escape death.
Ye Zichen hadn't even reached the earth supreme level yet, but after looking into the Black Demon Dragon's eyes, he was completely fine.
This bro of his was no ordinary person!
"Why are you looking at me like that? Didn't you say Emperor Hades was looking for me? Let's hurry inside."
Under Su Yiyun's strange gaze, Ye Zichen felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but speak up. As soon as he spoke, the palace's doors opened on their own, and a deep rumble echoed out from within.
"Come on in."
Surprisingly, the doors didn't lead straight ahead. Instead, they opened up a staircase that led downwards. The staircase was so deep that they couldn't see the end. Both sides of the staircase were pitch-black.
Ye Zichen and Su Yiyun felt their way down, but after descending for who knew how many steps ….
On both sides of the wall, a row of wall fires ignited.
The flames illuminated the pitch-black hallway, and Ye Zichen saw that the walls were covered in countless diagrams.
What made him feel strange was that when he looked at these patterns, he actually felt that they were more or less familiar.
When he saw the last diagram, he immediately turned to look at Su Yiyun.
"What is it?"
Su Yiyun asked in confusion. Ye Zichen pointed at the wall.
"Look at this painting."
"Huh? There's no painting? " Su Yiyun arched his brows in surprise and looked at the wall. In his eyes, there were no diagrams at all.
"This is clearly …."
Ye Zichen wanted to explain, but he swallowed his words halfway.
After so many years of experience, he'd already realized that he was the only one who could see the diagrams. No one else could see them at all.
What made him uneasy was that the last painting he'd seen was a depiction of his battle against the demons.
Ye Zichen connected it to the previous diagrams, and he couldn't help but guess that this hallway's walls recorded the cycle of reincarnation.
The diagrams he'd seen earlier ….
