Chapter 1667: I’ve Been Waiting For You Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Seeing that Ye Chen did not believe him, Long Xiao quickly said, “I’m not lying to you. It’s just that there’s a sixth-level Dao Integration realm demonic beast guarding the teleportation formation. I can’t get in without passing it.”

Long Xiao had thought about finding helpers outside, but he was only an early-stage Dao Integration realm expert. If he found someone stronger than the demonic beast, that person would likely hoard all of the treasures.

“Tell me the location and I will spare your life!”

Ye Chen’s interest was piqued. Although he might not be able to kill a sixth-level Dao Integration realm demonic beast, getting past it into the teleportation formation should be relatively easy.

Opportunity came hand in hand with danger. He had offended too many forces in the western region, to the point where everyone hated him. Therefore, he had to get stronger quickly, to the point where none of these forces could touch him.

Furthermore, even Creation realm experts could enter this secret realm, so if he competed with these experts, he was bound to lose. However, things would be different if he could enter in advance.

Perhaps Ye Chen would have already obtained the treasures and inheritance by the time it opened.

When Long Xiao heard that Ye Chen would let him go, he did not hold back.

“Sir, it’s in the deepest part of the island in the southeast. There’s a cliff in the depths.”

“At the bottom of the cliff, there is a teleportation formation. Sir, look, I have already told you, so will you…”

Long Xiao had a fawning look on his face. As long as he did not die, he would still be the overlord of this island.

As for Ye Chen, Long Xiao knew that he must have come from beyond the island.

The experts of the outside world did not even care about their island, and would probably not even want it if they gave it to them.

“Don’t worry. I’ll naturally keep my word.”

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, a blood-red light entered Long Xiao’s mind. Within moments, Long Xiao’s expression turned dull and he could not think anymore.

His only thought was to obey Ye Chen’s orders unconditionally.

Ye Chen did not kill him, but Long Xiao’s fate was crueler than death.

“In the future, you only need to listen to Chen Ling’s order. Even if you have to die, you have to protect Chen Ling.”

Ye Chen did not care about an early-stage Dao Integration realm expert, as someone like this would not be of much use. He might as well use him to protect Chen Ling.

“Yes, Master!”

Long Xiao spoke in a mechanical voice. His eyes were devoid of life.

At this moment, Long Xiao went over to Chen Ling and stood there motionlessly.

At first, Chen Ling was still a little afraid, but when she saw that Long Xiao did not move, she was relieved.

Ye Chen patted Chen Ling’s head. This is my second gift to you.”

“Ye Chen, this gift is too much. You should take it back.”

Although Chen Ling was young, she was not a fool. Ye Chen was doing this to protect her.

“Early-stage Dao Integration realm experts are useless to me. Take this gift and don’t worry.”

Chen Ling did not know how to repay Ye Chen, but after hesitating for a few seconds, she took off her storage ring and said to Ye Chen seriously, “Ye Chen, this storage ring has been with me for some time. I can’t crack the seal inside, so I haven’t opened it.”

“Moreover, this storage ring and the Gengjin metal in my body came from the same origins.”

“I think it will be useful to you, so you must accept it!”

Ye Chen nodded and did not think too much about it.

He checked the storage ring and was slightly startled. There really was a powerful seal within it that even he could not break,

Ye Chen did not intend to probe further at this moment, so he casually tossed the storage ring into the Samsara Graveyard.

Then, he bade farewell and left.

However, Ye Chen did not notice that Chen Ling’s storage ring released a dazzling light the moment it entered the Samsara Graveyard.

A surprised voice suddenly sounded from the tombstone of the mighty expert in the Samsara Graveyard.

“How is this possible? That storage ring actually contains that thing?”

“This kid’s luck… This is too unbelievable.”

“That thing has disappeared for tens of thousands of years. In the end, it actually ended up in the hands of this kid in this way.”

“I’m afraid that the Chen Family wasn’t as simple as they seemed in the ancient times.”

After saying that, an invisible force surged, and the storage ring flew towards the tombstone.

…

That night, all of the experts within a hundred miles heard miserable screams.

The next day, news came that the Long family, which had dominated the island for ten thousand years, had been destroyed!

A man named Ye Chen had destroyed the entire Long family overnight.

Soon after, news spread that the Chen Family possessed a Dao Integration realm puppet. Instantly, the Chen Family’s status rose and all of the island forces wanted to befriend the Chen family, offering expensive treasures.

Furthermore, because the Dao Integration realm puppet was in Chen Ling’s possession, the head of the Chen Family immediately made it clear that the next head of the family would be Chen Ling.

Countless people wanted to meet Chen Ling. After all, befriending Chen Ling was equivalent to befriending a Dao Integration realm expert.

…

After Ye Chen bade farewell to the Chen Family, he headed to the southeast alone.

Even with his current speed, he still needed a day to cover the distance.

As night fell, Ye Chen arrived at the top of the cliff alone. This was the place Long Xiao had mentioned.

The cold wind whistled, like a malicious ghost demanding his life.

“Disciple, you have to be careful. I have a feeling that there’s something strange down there.”

Xiao Yao could feel his soul trembling.

“Master, I’ll be careful.”

Ye Chen frowned. He glanced at the cliff and jumped down.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The cold wind blew past Ye Chen’s ears. After some time, he saw a glimmer of light.

Bang!

Ye Chen landed on the ground. He wanted to use his spiritual sense to check his surroundings, but soon realized that he could not use it here.

There seemed to be something here that interfered with his spiritual sense.

Relying on his eyes, he could only see a short distance ahead of him.

In front of him, smoke was swirling, obscuring his sight.

Since he had already come all the way here, Ye Chen could not go back. He gritted his teeth and walked forward.

Ye Chen had no idea how much time had passed as he kept walking, but eventually he suddenly heard a rustling sound.

“Disciple, be careful. Something is approaching you.”

Ye Chen was slightly stunned. He glanced behind him and instantly noticed a few giant demonic beasts wrapped in demonic energy approaching.

“Gengjin energy! Activate!”

In an instant, Ye Chen’s body was suffused with dazzling golden light.

Those demonic beasts acted as if they had seen something terrifying and instantly retreated.

Ye Chen ignored him and continued forward until he saw a cave, within which seemed to be embers of fire.

There were many demonic beasts here, but not a single demonic beast went into the cave.

It was as if they were afraid of encountering something inside.

Ye Chen no longer hesitated and chose to move forward.

As soon as he entered the cave, some bats flew around and walked closer to the fire.

At this moment, Ye Chen saw a sloppy old man leaning close to the fire.

Ye Chen could tell from a glance that there was no aura flowing through this old man’s body. He was an ordinary mortal.

An old man had appeared in the cave… Ye Chen could not make heads or tails of it. However, to be able to keep the demonic beasts away, this old man was definitely not as simple as he seemed.

The old man did not seem to notice Ye Chen at all. He sat beside the fire and did not move at all.

When Ye Chen walked over, he saw the old man’s face.

His face was covered in dense scars, making him look exceptionally terrifying.

Ye Chen was about to greet him when the old man suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice, “You must be Ye Chen.”

Ye Chen was stunned and his eyes widened.

He had yet to say anything, so how did the old man know his identity?

Before Ye Chen could speak, the old man continued, “I’ve been waiting here for ten thousand years for you…”
