In the depths of the Desolate God's Tomb, in the dangerous forest.
Boom!
As blood splattered, the void was torn apart. A figure bathed in golden light killed a giant python that was over 60 meters long with a single palm strike.
That figure was Ye Chen.
Ye Chen glanced at the Lightning Python on the ground. After removing its beast core and gallbladder, he looked around. His eyes flickered, "I've been searching for almost two hours, but I still haven't found Fang Ziyue."
After he returned with the Dragon Scale Origin Fruit, he received a message from Fang Ziyue's Divine Consciousness. He was told to look for her in the northwest corner of the Desolate God's Tomb.
However, Ye Chen walked through the entire northwest corner, but he did not find Fang Ziyue. Not only that, but many people who entered the Desolate God's Tomb had mysteriously disappeared.
"With Fang Ziyue's ability and identity, no one will target her unless it's absolutely necessary."
Ye Chen headed in another direction immediately as he thought to this point.
After he left, there were several figures gathered at a place not far away from where he had stayed previously. They were all dressed in the same attire, and it was clear that they were from the same faction.
"Eh, why does that person look familiar?"
A middle-aged man among them looked at Ye Chen's retreating figure and said while deep in thought, "Why do I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?"
"Senior Brother, your old habit of looking at everyone familiar is happening again."
Beside the middle-aged man, a young man consumed a medicinal pill. As he replenished his vitality, he complained, "It's said that there are countless treasures in the Desolate God's Tomb, but we've been here for almost four hours. We haven't even seen bird poop, let alone cow hair."
"What do you know?!"
The middle-aged man glared at him and said, "Have you forgotten what Luo Xiu, God's Son of Great Jiang, Jiang Li, and the rest said? Someone stole the treasure they wanted, so they offered a reward of ten million spirit stones for us to help find that person.
"That's ten million spirit stones. If we get it, we'll still have leftovers after splitting it evenly."
At this point, the middle-aged man was extremely envious.
"But we have to be capable to find that person!"
The young man from before mumbled, "Don't forget that the person who could snatch the treasure from the hands of Jiang Li and the others isn't someone we can imagine. Moreover, didn't Jiang Li and the others capture Miss Fang Ziyue to force that person to appear …?"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly discovered that the temperature in this space had suddenly dropped, and his senior brother was staring at something behind him with widened eyes.
"What happened?"
The young man was stunned at first, and then he seemed to realize something. He immediately turned around and saw a young man in black standing quietly behind him.
"Who … who are you?"
The young man was shocked at first. Then, just as he was about to make a move, he realized that the young man's speed was even faster than his. The young man's hand reached out and grabbed the young man's neck, lifting him in midair.
Ye Chen stared at him coldly and said calmly, "Did you just say that Jiang Li and the rest captured Fang Ziyue?"
At that moment, everyone, including the middle-aged man, finally snapped back to their senses. They looked at Ye Chen in shock and said, "Y-You're the helper that Ms. Fang hired?"
"D-Don't kill me …"
The young man who was lifted into the air by Ye Chen was horrified. He stammered immediately, "Jiang Li and the rest did capture Miss Fang Ziyue. They've also spread the news that they want you to save her. Otherwise, they'll kill Miss Fang Ziyue."
"Where is it?" Ye Chen asked.
"It's … it's on a huge mountain near the northwest."
Bang!
Ye Chen tossed him out and disappeared from where he was in a flash. The killing intent in his eyes was dense, "Jiang Li, I've spared your life twice. You really won't die if you don't ask for it!"
…
On a huge mountain near the northwest of the Desolate God's Tomb.
At that moment, many figures had gathered on the mountain. Many cultivators from all over had gathered there, and they looked at the few silhouettes in the air at the same time.
In the air, Jiang Li, Luo Xiu, the Heavenly Jade Saint, and the rest stood proudly. They had cold expressions on their faces, and they seemed rather impatient.
On the other hand, Fang Ziyue did not move at all. It was as if someone had done something to her body. She could not move at all, but there was a trace of worry in the depths of her flickering beautiful eyes.
"It's been two hours, but Miss Fang's reinforcements haven't arrived yet. Could it be that they're afraid and don't dare to come?"
"I think so too. After all, his opponents this time are Luo Xiu, Jiang Li, and the rest. No matter who it is, they're all outstanding talents of the younger generation."
"In this generation, I'm afraid only Huang Fuyu and that Mad Southern Ye can suppress them, right? Coincidentally, both of them are Chinese. "
"…"
All sorts of discussions could be heard in the crowd. Luo Xiu and the rest in the air acted as if they did not hear anything.
"Buzz …"
As the air trembled, Luo Xiu slowly took a step forward. His gloomy and sharp gaze sized up the crowd below, then he looked at Jiang Li and the rest and said, "Brother Jiang Li, looks like this Ye really doesn't dare to come."
"This outcome is not beyond my expectations."
Jiang Li's expression was calm, and he did not look disappointed at all. After all, the culprit of this matter was Luo Xiu, and he was just going through the motions.
"This cunning brat."
Luo Xiu's gaze turned cold as he sneered, "He's lucky to have escaped this calamity. However, if he thinks that he can sit back and relax, then he's gravely mistaken. I'll capture him sooner or later!"
After saying that, his gaze could not help but land on Fang Ziyue. He said with a spurious smile, "Ms. Fang, I don't know if I should say that you're lucky or unlucky. You're lucky that we didn't intend to kill you from the beginning.
Unfortunately, the reinforcements you hired only cares about his own interests and doesn't consider your safety at all. How sad. "
He had evil intentions. Seeing that he could not kill Ye Chen immediately, he came up with a second plan. He wanted to sow discord between Ye Chen and Fang Ziyue.
If that happened, Fang Ziyue would definitely not help Ye Chen when he encountered him again.
"Luo, you don't have to sow discord."
However, Fang Ziyue saw through his thoughts and said with a sneer, "At the end of the day, I don't have much of a relationship with Senior Ye. At most, we're just employees. It's understandable that he won't come to save me.
I can only say that your wishful thinking has failed. "
As she spoke to this point, she seemed to be gloating.
Luo Xiu frowned. Just when he was about to remove the restriction in Fang Ziyue's body, a golden rainbow that pierced through heaven and earth suddenly shot over from the distant horizon.
Wherever he passed, there would be lightning and the void would explode. It was as if he had triggered the wrath of the heavens and the earth.
At the same time, a cold voice shook heaven and earth, "I've always kept my promises. Since I said that I'll protect you, I'll definitely protect you!"
