I can't kill you? "
Ye Chen smiled disdainfully and pressed forward.
However, at that moment, Yun Yi seemed to have thought of something, and her expression changed suddenly, "Mr. Ye, you can't kill him!"
"Why?" Ye Chen turned around and looked at her.
Yun Yi rushed over and took a deep breath in. "If the Great Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty are the two overlords of the northern region, then the White Jade Capital is the true master of the northern region!"
"Empress Dowager is right."
The Acting King seemed to see hope and said hurriedly, "The White Jade Capital is a supreme force, also known as the Immortal Sect. They stand in the clouds and look down on the entire northern region …"
"Aren't you the son of the late emperor?"
Ye Chen said with a cold smile, "Your mother is also a member of the Great Dynasty. What does she have to do with the White Jade Capital?"
The Acting King trembled violently when he sensed the killing intent in Ye Chen's eyes. He did not dare to hide anything, "My mother was a disciple of the White Jade Capital. Back then, the late emperor also went to the White Jade Capital to study. Later, he took my mother and left the White Jade Capital …"
Ye Chen looked at Yun Yi by instinct.
Yun Yi nodded with difficulty, "I've heard of this rumor. The White Jade Capital's disciples are not allowed to marry people of the secular world. Therefore, after the late emperor took that woman away, the White Jade Capital sent people to the world and forced that woman to death in front of everyone. The late emperor died of depression because of this."
This was a secret of the royal family. Only a handful of people knew about it. She had only found out about it from the dusty secret files after she became the Empress Dowager.
This was also the reason why the royal family did not dare to force the Acting King too much even though they knew that he wanted to rebel. They were afraid that the White Jade Capital would take action.
Ye Chen looked at the Acting King with a faint smile, "If that's the case, I'm afraid the White Jade Capital can't wait for me to kill you, right?"
"No!"
The Acting King's face immediately turned pale, "There are many factions in the White Jade Capital. My mother was forced to death by the enemy faction. If you kill me, my mother's family will definitely take revenge for me."
At this point, he continued, "Also, my mother's family blamed the late emperor for my mother's death, so they secretly ordered me to rebel. Everything I did was ordered by them …"
Ye Chen's eyes flickered when he heard that.
He didn't expect that the civil war of a major dynasty would actually involve so many twists and turns of the past.
Seeing that he did not say a word, the Acting King thought that he was afraid and said, "Senior, as long as you don't kill me, I will definitely …"
However, Ye Chen could not be bothered to listen to him begging for mercy. He slapped with his palm and did not hold back at all. He directly erased that person from time to time.
"Mr. Ye, you … You've caused a huge disaster …" Yun Yi faintly sighed.
"The Acting King … is … dead?"
When they saw the Acting King turn into a bloody mist, all the rebel soldiers were shocked and incredulous.
"Run … run quickly …"
It was unknown who cried out in alarm, but without saying a word, they all turned into afterimages and fled in all directions.
"No one will be able to escape today!"
Ye Chen scoffed. Subsequently, his Divine Consciousness spread out in a frenzy. He waved his sleeve, and a purple gleam shot into the sky.
"Rumble …"
In an instant, the True Martial Thousand Lightning Sword streaked across the sky and directly arrived behind the dozen Martial Ancestor Realm experts, killing them one by one.
As for the rest of the defeated army, Ye Chen could not be bothered to intervene. He grabbed Yun Yi's shoulder and flew into the city directly.
…
In the palace of the Great Dynasty.
Ye Chen lifted his hand and set up a barrier. Then, he said under Yun Yi's confused gaze, "Have you seen the ghost ship?"
Before this, he had originally planned to leave the northern region through the wormhole. However, he accidentally found out that the ghost ship had appeared in the northern region, and Yun Yi was a witness.
Therefore, that was the reason why he came back to save Yun Yi this time.
As soon as he said that, Yun Yi took a few steps back subconsciously. Then, she looked at him with hatred, "Who exactly are you?"
She looked at Ye Chen with vigilance, but there was more hatred as if she was looking at an enemy.
Ye Chen did not expect her attitude to change so drastically. He could not help but frown, "It doesn't matter who I am. You just need to answer my question. You have to know that if I want to harm you, you won't be able to resist.
"Moreover, I've seen the ghost ship before, and my wife's disappearance is related to the ghost ship."
The moment that was said, Yun Yi's tense expression finally loosened, "Y-You've seen the ghost ship too?"
"That's right!" Ye Chen nodded lightly.
The hall fell silent immediately.
Yun Yi stared at him as if she was trying to see something. After a while, she smiled bitterly, "Mr. Ye, I believe you!"
She sat on the chair gently and looked like she was recalling something, "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry. I lied to you. I told you that I've been hiding my feelings since I was young, but I'm not."
Ye Chen said nothing.
After all, who did not have a secret?
Yun Yi said softly, "I'm actually the daughter of the King of Hanhai. The King of Hanhai is a sea region between the Great Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. It's also a tributary of the Tianfeng sea region …
"A year and a half ago, I was traveling with my father on the sea with my maidservant. However, I found a ghost ship heading toward us. There were powerhouses fighting on the ship."
Ye Chen could not help but squint when he heard that, "A year and a half?"
If he counted the beginning of the spiritual energy recovery on Earth, it had indeed been more than a year since they parted.
"That battle was earth-shattering. My father was a Martial King, but he was still afraid. At that time, he escorted me away decisively …
"However, those people discovered us in the end. Some of them came to kill us. My father stayed behind and caused a tsunami. I was swept into the tsunami."
At this point, Yun Yi's brows were filled with fear, "When I woke up, I found out that I was saved by a family from the Great Dynasty. Later on, I heard that the Hanhai Clan was wiped out overnight. After that, this family was attacked by their political enemies and their property was confiscated. I was also locked up in the Yeyou Court …
"Did you see the scene on the ghost ship clearly?"
Ye Chen grasped the key information and asked, "For example, how many people were on the ship? Who were the people fighting? "
"We were too far away, so we couldn't see clearly."
Yun Yi shook her head and said, "However, there seemed to be a few powerful existences attacking an old man. The old man was protecting a few people at that time. He was like a god of death, killing everywhere …"
Ye Chen's eyes focused when he heard that, "Was that old man crazy? Were there three people behind him? One man, two women, and a little girl? "
Just as he finished speaking, Yun Yi suddenly raised her head and looked at him with a strange gaze, "Mr. Ye, h-how did you know?"
"Boom …"
At that moment, a rumble sounded in Ye Chen's mind. Endless joy surged within him.
It was them!
It was really them!
Yuhan and his parents!
