Ye Futian looked at the Village Chief and continued, "What does the number one sword matrix of the Nine States have to do with you inviting me to Tombkeeper Village?"
What did Tombkeeper Village protect?
Was it just to guard a sword array?
Naturally, he would not blindly believe the old village chief's words.
"The Nether Sword Mound is engraved with a mysterious sword formation that can kill any intruder, unless there is someone who can break the formation." The old Village Chief continued, "The Chess Saint's mastery of matrices is extraordinary, and he has already destroyed the matrix. Although he was trapped by the sword matrix, he learned some secrets about the Nether Sword Mound and Tombkeeper Village and spread the news. This concerns the life and death of Tombkeeper Village. You saw it before, the people of Tombkeeper Village all have extraordinary cultivation. Do you know why?"
"I do not know." Ye Futian shook his head. From what the old Village Chief had said, his participation in the Nine State Forum this time was actually a precautionary measure.
He had personally experienced what happened in Chess Saint Villa. If the Chess Saint had spread the news, then Liu Zong would have definitely gotten hold of it. He could also tell that Liu Zong and Saint Xihua had intentionally released the news that day. Otherwise, there would have been no need to point out the old man's identity in public. Their intentions were self-evident.
Therefore, it was normal for the old Village Chief to be worried. Even if they did not come out of the mountain, Liu Zong would have brought people over sooner or later, and he would not have come alone.
The old Village Chief brought Yaya to participate in the Nine State Forum and brought all of this forward.
"The Nether Sword Mound is behind Tombkeeper Village, and the Nether Sword Mound nurtures much of the power of rules. The people of Tombkeeper Village are able to enter the outskirts of the Nether Sword Mound to cultivate, and they begin to sense and adapt to the power of rules from birth. As their cultivation increases, they will naturally be able to comprehend some of the rules," the Village Chief said.
Ye Futian's heart raced. Was the Nether Sword Mound really so magical?
This was equivalent to the cultivation area in the Holy Zhi Palace, and it was an evolved version, naturally nurturing rules within. This kind of cultivation conditions was simply coveting, enough to make all the holy lands of the Nine States waver.
"The Nether Sword Mound is known as a dangerous place. No one dares to set foot in it, and all invaders perished there. The Chess Saint is an exception, and he knows this secret. Do you understand now?" The old Village Chief looked at Ye Futian and said.
A man's wealth is his own ruin.
Such cultivation conditions were enough to attract Sages to plunder.
If the holy land could be built here and the people of the holy land could cultivate here, how grand would the future be?
Ye Futian could now understand why the Chess Saint had chosen Liu Zong and not him. Liu Zong's identity was very important.
He, Ye Futian, was the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State, a fake holy land. Naturally, the Chess Saint did not take him seriously.
This could be a matter of life and death for the Chess Saint. As such, he had placed his hopes on Liu Zong. Rather than saying that the Chess Saint had chosen Liu Zong as his heir, it was more accurate to say that the Chess Saint had chosen Liu Zong as his ally. It was mutually beneficial.
Ye Futian didn't say anything. He just looked at the old Village Chief and waited for him to continue.
The old Village Chief had not said what he wanted to know. What did all this have to do with him?
"I hope that you can enter the Nether Sword Mound and activate the Nether Sword Matrix to awe the people of the Nine States." The old Village Chief stared at Ye Futian and said, "This concerns the survival of Tombkeeper Village, so I'm asking for your help."
With that, the old Village Chief stood up and bowed slightly to Ye Futian.
"Old mister." Ye Futian stood up and supported the old man with both hands. "The sword matrix in the Nether Sword Mound can kill all invaders. How can I enter?"
"Perhaps this is the will of the heavens." The old Village Chief looked at Ye Futian and said, "The sword matrix in the Nether Sword Mound is very mystical. The stronger the invader is, the more powerful the sword matrix becomes. Only the truly top-notch geniuses are able to break through the matrix and enter. I went to participate in the Nine State Forum to find such a person, someone who could defeat Yaya without any flaws, and then let him familiarize himself with the sword matrix. I never thought that fate would bring me together with Palace Lord Ye. Furthermore, Palace Lord Ye, like Liu Zong, had broken the Celestial Dragon Chess Game of the Chess Saint."
Ye Futian's eyes flashed as he stared at the old Village Chief and said, "Senior, you mean to say that the Celestial Dragon Chess Game of the Chess Saint is actually …"
"If my guess is correct, the Celestial Dragon Chess Game is a matrix that the Chess Saint evolved from the sword matrix in the Nether Sword Mound. Looking for someone who can break through the matrix is in fact a setup," the old Village Chief said.
Ye Futian's expression changed. If that was the case, he did seem to be a very suitable candidate.
"However, the dangers of entering the Nether Sword Mound aside, even if I were able to enter, wouldn't it be suicide for me to stop the people of the other holy lands of the Nine States?" Ye Futian looked at the Village Chief and said.
"After you familiarize yourself with the sword diagram, I'll let Yaya and a few others go in with you. You should be able to rest easy that way." The old Village Chief then said, "Everyone here today is the core of the village. As long as Palace Lord Ye's people do not leak the information, no one will know about today's conversation, and no one will know who activated the Sword Matrix of the Nether. Furthermore, I heard that the previous Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace had once invited Emperor Xia. Before the end of the next Battle of Saints, people from other holy lands would have to think twice before making a move against you."
"This matter is of great importance. It concerns the survival of Tombkeeper Village. If Palace Lord Ye is willing to help, we Tombkeeper Village will be eternally grateful. In the future, people from the holy lands of the Barren State can come here to cultivate. Furthermore, Palace Lord Ye might find other opportunities in the Nether Sword Mound," the old Village Chief continued.
Ye Futian looked at the old Village Chief, then turned to look at the others. Zhuge Mingyue said, "As you said, this matter is of great importance. We need to think about it carefully."
"There's no hurry. People from the Nine States won't move so quickly. You can all cultivate in Tombkeeper Village for a while. If Palace Lord Ye agrees, I'll give the sword diagram to Palace Lord Ye to study," the old Village Chief said.
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded.
"Girl, take Palace Lord Ye and the others to rest. You'll be taking care of Palace Lord Ye for the next few days. Don't cause any more trouble," the old Village Chief said to Yaya.
Yaya looked at Ye Futian and pouted. She seemed a little unwilling.
"Palace Lord Ye, this girl has not been taught well. Please forgive her," the old Village Chief said.
"No matter." Ye Futian nodded.
"Let's go." Yaya said unhappily and then led the way. Ye Futian smiled bitterly and shook his head. At that moment, Hua Jieyu walked up to Yaya's side.
Yaya looked at her. Seeing Hua Jieyu's smile, she could not help but feel a sense of familiarity.
"That guy is very bad. Don't bother with him, Yaya." Hua Jieyu smiled gently. Yaya looked at Hua Jieyu with a strange look in her eyes. She then nodded gently and said, "Sister, I'm sorry about what happened that day."
"Isn't it normal to win or lose on the battle platform? I don't know how you cultivated to be so powerful," Hua Jieyu said with a smile.
Yaya was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "I don't know either."
The two of them started chatting. Ye Futian looked at the two of them in shock. They … they just called her sister?
He rubbed his forehead. Was it because he was not charming enough?
This demoness could even bewitch a little girl?
However, seeing the two of them chatting, Ye Futian also smiled. Although Yaya had repeatedly offended him, he did not mind. It was not just because Yaya was very talented.
It was because he had seen something. This girl was a child with a hard life.
He had discussed it with Hua Jieyu, so she knew about it.
But Yaya probably did not know about it herself.
"Little Brother, do you believe the Village Chief's words?" Zhuge Mingyue asked Ye Futian telepathically.
Ye Futian looked at Second Sister. Just now, Second Sister rushed to reply that she wanted to think about it. It was probably because she did not completely trust the old Village Chief's words.
"Second Sister, we only met once, and the stakes are so high. Naturally, we can't trust everything," Ye Futian replied telepathically. "The old Village Chief's words are half true and half false."
After all, Yaya's existence was a secret, and the old Village Chief did not reveal anything about it.
However, everything about the Chess Saint should be true. The Chess Saint spread the news, and sooner or later, it would cause a storm in Tombkeeper Village, but the old Village Chief took the initiative to bring it forward.
"Are we going to agree to it?" Zhuge Mingyue asked.
Ye Futian looked at Sage Wanxiang in another direction and smiled. "Uncle-Master, do you want to read fortune or misfortune?"
"Alright." Sage Wanxiang nodded. Fortune or misfortune was a relatively simple divination and did not require much time.
Yaya arranged accommodation for Ye Futian and the others, and the people of the Barren State settled down in Tombkeeper Village for the time being.
Whether it was himself, Hua Jieyu, Wuchen, or the others, they all needed to cultivate for a while to break into the Sage Plane. After going through the Nine State Forum, they had become more proficient in using the power of rules, and it was time for them to break into the Sage Plane.
In the evening, a red glow appeared in the western sky. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the village from the mountains in the distance, making the village seem even more peaceful.
In front of a small house in the village, Ye Futian lay quietly on a rattan chair, rocking it. Beside him, Hua Jieyu also leaned quietly, enjoying the rare peace.
"Wife, don't you think it's good for the two of us to cultivate in seclusion like this?" Ye Futian chuckled.
"Whenever you want to, I'll be with you." Hua Jieyu chuckled and said.
"Yeah, let's have two more babies." Ye Futian smiled and said, "No, three, four …"
Hua Jieyu blinked, then rolled her eyes at Ye Futian and said, "In your dreams. Two at most."
"That won't do. Look at how perfect I am, my children will definitely be outstanding as well. We have to have more," Ye Futian teased.
Hua Jieyu smiled and nodded, saying, "That makes sense."
"Since wife agrees, why don't we go make babies now?" Ye Futian looked at the beauty lying on the rattan chair. The light of the setting sun shone on that perfect body, making her look exceptionally alluring.
"What are you thinking about?" Hua Jieyu blushed. This perverted guy, it's not even dark yet.
"What do you think?" Ye Futian reached out his demonic claw towards Hua Jieyu. Hua Jieyu knocked the hand that he reached out and dodged slightly.
"Sister." At that moment, a voice was heard. Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu turned to look at the girl who was walking towards them.
"Sister, let's go eat," Yaya called.
"Okay." Hua Jieyu smiled and stood up. She looked at Ye Futian and then walked towards Yaya, holding her hand and leaving together.
Yaya turned back to look at Ye Futian and said in a low voice, "Hooligan."
"I …" Ye Futian looked at Yaya in shock. Did this little girl know what a hooligan was?
Standing up, Ye Futian was about to follow them, but he heard a voice say, "Palace Lord."
Ye Futian turned around and looked at Sage Wanxiang, who was walking over, and asked, "Uncle-Master, how is it?"
"Everything points to disaster," Sage Wanxiang said. The divination was more inclined to be ominous.
Ye Futian had a headache and rubbed his brow.
"But there are hidden opportunities," Sage Wanxiang said again. Ye Futian nodded lightly. How should he choose?
"What about the other divination?" Ye Futian asked again. He had asked Sage Wanxiang to divine another divination before.
Sage Wanxiang looked at Ye Futian and said, "If we leave, her divination will be extremely ominous, almost certain death. If we enter, we will have a chance of survival."
Ye Futian frowned when he heard Sage Wanxiang's words. This was troublesome!
