224 Coincidence
Long Zhan left carefreely, but he left behind a bunch of questions for Ye Xuan.
For a moment, Ye Xuan didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile, “Senior, you’ve left me with a difficult problem.”
Long Zhan’s final words set off stormy waves in Ye Xuan’s heart.
He thought that he had entered a certain memory fragment of Long Zhan because of the Dragon Pearl, but now it seemed that it was not the case.
Long Zhan actually said that he could feel strange gazes on him. Ye Xuan was not sure if it was because of the Dragon Pearl’s restrictions that he could only be by long Zhan’s side during that period.
However, that was not the past. It had indeed happened.
Ye Xuan couldn’t help but have a ridiculous thought. Perhaps his soul had traveled back in time a thousand years ago, which was why Long Zhan had such a familiar feeling. Otherwise, how could it be explained?
If that were the case, it would be a little scary.
Although the Dragon Pearl had been activated, it shouldn’t have been so powerful. It could cross the distance of time and space and bring his spirit back to the past. Although he was only a bystander, it was still an incredible thing.
Ye Xuan found it unbelievable.
However, it was too much of a coincidence. He couldn’t help but think of the mysterious and powerful man’s gaze. Was it just a casual glance?
Long Zhan had almost never mentioned the existence of the man. He was only a wisp of divine sense, so most of his memories were missing. He didn’t know anything about Ye Xuan’s questions.
“Forget it, I’m afraid I’ll have to wait until the truth is slowly revealed.”
Looking at the Dragon Pearl that had almost lost its luster, Ye Xuan’s eyes flickered with an unfathomable light.
Even the dragon skeleton could be resurrected because of an inexplicable power, and the Dragon Pearl’s broken divine sense had reappeared. What else could not happen?
The Penglai Immortal Beasts that had been sealed a thousand years ago had also seen the light of day again. Even the mysterious and powerful mastermind behind the scenes was also a person from a thousand years ago.
It was said that the world had undergone a great change a thousand years ago. The spiritual energy had dissipated, and all kinds of living creatures had gone extinct. A gap had appeared in history. Although people later knew a little, most of them did not know anything.
Many ancient books and historical records had disappeared in history. No one knew what had happened a thousand years ago and why the world had changed so much that the spiritual energy had dissipated.
All kinds of doubts appeared in Ye Xuan’s mind. Meanwhile, there was an urgent sense of crisis in his heart. It was a sense of the changes that were about to happen in the world.
Things related to a thousand years ago had reappeared in the human world. Who could guarantee that there wouldn’t be a few super powerhouses who had lived for a thousand years?
If they could wake up again, just how terrifying would their strength be?
Although all of this was just Ye Xuan’s conjecture, it would bring a huge change to everyone if it came true one day.
Things from a thousand years ago were slowly emerging, so he had to make early preparations. Ye Xuan felt an urgent sense of danger in his heart. He had to improve his strength as soon as possible.
As for Long Zhan’s entrustment, he already had a candidate in mind– Perhaps it would be a good choice to entrust the Dragon Pearl to it.
Ye Xuan was a man of action. He immediately found the City Lord, Yi Chengrui, and told him that he wanted to go to the demonic beasts’ forest.
After hearing that, Yi Chengrui was stunned and suddenly said nervously, “What’s the matter? Is there any movement from that flood dragon? Or did it discover something?”
Ye Xuan shook his head, “Neither. It’ll find out sooner or later. Instead of being passive, it’s better to take the initiative.”
These words seemed to have a different meaning in Yi Chengrui’s mind.
He was clearly saying that he was going to die.
Yi Chengrui spoke in a trembling voice, afraid that Ye Xuan couldn’t understand, “Elder Ye, don’t be impulsive. Even if you’re talented, that’s a flood dragon!”
Even the others didn’t agree with Ye Xuan’s approach.
“The flood dragon still doesn’t know. We can lie to it for as long as we can. Jingdu has already received our message and said that they will send reinforcements as soon as possible. The flood dragon still doesn’t know the situation during this time. When the reinforcements arrive, we don’t have to be on edge anymore…”
Ye Xuan interrupted Yi Chengrui, “Are we really going to start a war with these demonic beasts? If we really start a war, we’ll suffer countless casualties and we’ll pay an extremely heavy price. Neither the humans nor the demonic beasts would gain benefits, not to mention that we’re the ones who are in the wrong first.”
“But I can’t just watch you die. Those demonic beasts will tear you to pieces.”
Ye Xuan, however, was very calm, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. City Lord, you don’t have to worry about me.”
Yi Chengrui still wanted to persuade him, but he had already made up his mind and would not be wavered. Thus Yi Chengrui had no choice.
“And I have a way. Those demonic beasts won’t do anything to me.”
Since he had already said this, Yi Chengrui could only agree, “Alright then. Be careful.”
When the others learned of this news, they also felt that it was very dangerous and didn’t want Ye Xuan to step into the trap. However, there was nothing else they could do.
To Ye Xuan’s surprise, Shen Changling said he wanted to go too.
“Elder Ye, I don’t feel at ease letting you go alone. Let me go with you.”
It was the same for one or two of them. Those who didn’t know would think that they were going to an ordinary place. After all, that was the lair of the demonic beasts, the place where the beast tide had broken out. Moreover, there was a flood dragon there.
It was rare for Shen Changlin to be willing to follow such a dangerous trip. The two of them had been through life and death several times and could be considered to have a friendship.
Everyone could not help but feel envious.
The others wanted to go with Ye Xuan too, but he rejected them.
First, he didn’t want others to take the risk. Second, he had important things to do at the flood dragon’s place. The fewer people who knew, the better.
