Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the sight of the lightning bullets that were charging toward him, He Chen felt a strong sense of danger and shouted loudly, “No, I have a big secret!”

“Secret?” Wu Ye asked. At the same time, he pressed down slightly with his right hand, and the lightning bullets instantly stopped in midair.

“Yes, it’s about the treasure map. There’s a big secret to advance to the Cavern of Mystery!”

When He Chen saw that Wu Ye had stopped attacking, a smile gradually appeared on his face.

He knew that this cultivator had come to the Yin Corpse Sect for a reason.

Wu Ye was a Soul Formation cultivator.

The next realm after the Soul Formation Realm was the Cavern of Mystery.

As long as He Chen used this secret as a request, Wu Ye would definitely agree.

“Hmm, tell me,” Wu Ye said indifferently and smiled.

“I can tell you, but I have a request.” He Chen seemed a little smug.

He could see that this kid was deliberately pretending not to care.

This showed that the secret was his target.

“Oh, what request?” Wu Ye stretched his waist and asked lazily.

“I want you to kill the sect master of the Yin Corpse Sect now and help me become the new sect master!” He Chen said cruelly. He slowly stood up from the ground and looked at Lu Fang.

When Lu Fang heard this, he sank into despair.

Oh no!

If this kid had really been bewitched…

Lu Fang immediately shouted anxiously, “Little Brother, you mustn’t believe it. He Chen was simply deceiving you. It’s impossible for him to know any secrets.”

Wu Ye looked at Lu Fang and then glanced at He Chen. Then, his lips curled into a vague smile.

Lu Fang became more anxious when he saw this. He Chen immediately laughed out loud as if he had already seen victory.

However, in the next moment, something unexpected happened.

Wu Ye waved his hand, and the lightning bullets that had paused in the air exploded with power once again and rushed toward He Chen.

He Chen looked at the attack in a daze, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

“Why? It’s impossible that you don’t care. It’s a big secret of advancing to the Cavern of Mystery!

“How dare you… I can’t accept this!”

Bang!

He Chen watched helplessly as his chest was struck.

At this moment, a huge wave of lightning energy instantly exploded due to this collision.

His body slowly floated up and was enveloped by a huge lightning ball.

The endless lightning constantly rubbed against the earthy yellow shield formed by the Earth Dragon Bloodline Aura on He Chen’s body.

The lightning ball continued to compress, causing He Chen’s body to explode inch by inch and spew out black blood mist.

When it was compressed to its limit, He Chen’s face was full of twisted pain. His eyes were filled with confusion and unwillingness as he stared at Wu Ye in the sky.

At this time, a weird smile appeared on Wu Ye’s face.

In fact, this tricky secret turned out to be a joke to him.

Wu Ye had thought over the so-called secret of advancing to the Cavern of Mystery, which was harmful to him.

He did not sit idle when he signed in, but he made several conjectures instead. According to the usual routine of the cultivation world that he had expected, he added 30 years to his lifespan.

It turned out the so-called advancement allowed him to obtain the other party’s inheritance and strength and share his body with the other party.

If his willpower was not firm enough, there was a high chance that he would be possessed.

Therefore, the only thing that attracted him to the Yin Corpse Sect was the rewards of signing in.

Snap! A trace of a sneer appeared on the corner of Wu Ye’s mouth. He lightly snapped his fingers.

Bang!

The lightning ball instantly exploded, and a violent shockwave exploded. The entire Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes was razed to the ground by this attack.

In the end, everything vanished into thin air.

Only an ordinary-looking golden scepter was left in the air. With a clang, it fell to the ground.

Looking at this golden scepter, Wu Ye frowned a little.

He had used the divination technique to calculate it just now.

To him, the spoils of war were troublesome.

This was a magic weapon that existed in the imperial mausoleum and was used to suppress the empire’s fate.

Once he took it, his fate would be bound to the corresponding empire’s fate.

One would prosper, while the other would perish.

In other words, the entire empire would become his burden.

Wu Ye shook his head slightly and looked at Lu Fang.

As a fifth-grade feng shui master, Lu Fang naturally knew what was hidden within.

What was more, the golden scepter was stolen from someone else’s mausoleum by He Chen. Once the other party came looking for him, the Yin Corpse Sect would not be able to deal with it.

Lu Fang saw Wu Ye’s hesitation and gritted his teeth.

“Little Friend, this is your spoils of war. I can sacrifice a hundred years of my life to seal it. This way, the aura on this scepter will be unable to have any connection with you and will remain sealed forever.”

Wu Ye was a little speechless. It seemed like the sect master of the Yin Corpse Sect was insistent on having him take it away.

However, if this scepter did not have anything to do with him, it would be impossible for him to take it away. Who knew if there might be some unexpected surprises in the future?

“Alright. You may do it.” Wu Ye nodded.

Lu Fang took a deep breath. He took out a talisman pen and began to draw runes on the backs of his hands.

A few minutes later, Lu Fang’s two arms were still covered in runes.

He put away the talisman pen and was about to use the sealing technique.

A gentle but somewhat hurried voice was heard.

“Senior, please wait.

“The golden scepter is something that I keep in my imperial mausoleum. I hope you can let me bring it back.”

An exceptionally handsome ‘man’ displayed a marvelous movement technique and appeared in everyone’s sight.

This man looked at Lu Fang with a pleading look in his eyes.

Lu Fang glanced at him with some surprise in his eyes.

Other than the fact that this man had reached the Nascent Soul Realm at such a young age, Lu Fang was surprised because of the man’s appearance.

However, Lu Fang did not reply and only looked in Wu Ye’s direction.

Wu Ye looked at this man with some surprise.

A newhalf?

In his perception, this was clearly a man.

However, regardless of his temperament or appearance, this man was even more feminine than a woman.

After carefully sensing the man’s aura, Wu Ye also found the reason. The problem lay within the man’s cultivation technique.

At this moment, the handsome man saw Lu Fang looking at Wu Ye.

“Senior, my name is Zhu Yushan. This golden scepter is extremely important to the Great Zhou Empire. I hope that you can allow me to bring it back.”

He immediately looked at Wu Ye with a pleading expression.

Two years ago, the golden scepter in the imperial mausoleum was lost.

He had investigated it for a long time and finally determined the location of the scepter by using the bloodline connection. It was hidden in the Yin Corpse Sect.

“The Great Zhou Empire? Take good care of the things in your family’s mausoleum. Don’t lose them again,” Wu Ye said indifferently with his eyes narrowed.

Although Zhu Yushan was quite good-looking, Wu Ye did not have any thoughts about men.

Anyway, this golden scepter was not of much use to him. It was good to be able to do the Great Zhou Empire a favor.

When Lu Fang heard Wu Ye’s decision, he slowly let out a sigh of relief deep down.

After all, the sealing technique used up 100 years of his life, so it was still very painful for him..
