Chapter 476: Not So Simple

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the rooftop, Ye Chen was about to return to his hotel room when he noticed something out of the corner of his eye.

He vaguely felt a pair of eyes staring at him from afar, and his eyes suddenly shot in that direction. He vaguely spotted a black shadow, but it disappeared instantly.

It was as if it had never existed.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. Fortunately, he was the only one who could sense and see the phenomena in the Samsara Graveyard. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xiangjiang was not as simple as he had imagined. It seemed that he had to be more careful.

Ye Chen returned to his hotel room, intending to continue cultivating. Suddenly Wei Ying sat up.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, “Ye Chen, where did you go so late at night? I was about to go look for you.”

Ye Chen shrugged and said, “I was a little hungry, so I went downstairs to grab something.”

Wei Ying nodded, then moved over to the left side of the bed. She patted the right side of the bed and said, “Ye Chen, there are two blankets here. If you want to sleep, you can sleep here. Don’t worry about me.”

Wei Ying thought of something and said with a smile, “You’re not sleeping because you’re afraid that I’ll take advantage of you, right?”

Ye Chen did not say anything. Instead, he quietly returned to the sofa and sat cross-legged to cultivate.

For cultivators, a small amount of sleep was sufficient.

Jiang Dao Mountain and Xiangjiang were not as simple as they seemed. Also, Chen Tianli had not returned yet, so he had to strengthen himself.

Wei Ying was a little disappointed, and in the end decided not to sleep.

She circulated the Chilling Heart technique, and a cold aura appeared around her. An icy crystal appeared between her eyebrows.

At the same time, on the Golden Goblet Coast of Xiangjiang City, Li family’s residence.

The Li family was a top family in the southeast coastal area and a major force in Xiangjiang City that had existed for thousands of years.

The Li family had been low-key in Huaxia until the eldest son of the Li family, Li Yuntian, was chosen by a sect deep in the Kunlun Mountains. Once that happened, the status of the Li family rose with the tide, as did their martial strength.

In terms of economic strength or martial strength, the Li family was definitely qualified to be the number one family in Xiangjiang.

At this moment, the atmosphere here was filled with anger and solemnity.

There was a huge screen in the living room, on which a video was playing on repeat.

This was the scene of Ye Chen killing dozens of people with two fingers and suppressing everyone present.

“What do you think of this child?” A white-haired old man wearing gold-rimmed glasses asked.

The old man was the patriarch of the Li family, Li Jiacheng.

He just sat there quietly, but the waves of his aura were sufficient to pressure those around him. Therefore, most outsiders would respectfully address him as Old Master Li.

On the surface, he was Huaxia’s top businessman, but very few people knew that he had once killed a hundred people in Xiangjiang with a single sword strike!

Without him and the eldest son chosen by the sect, the Li family would definitely not have attained their current strength.

Old Master Li’s words caused the Li family members to fall into a short period of silence.

A few seconds later, a middle-aged man in a shirt stood up.

“Dad, if this picture is real, then this kid’s strength must be monstrous. He’s worth recruiting.”

Old Master Li sneered and slammed the documents on the table.

“This video can’t be fake. Those people from Xiangjiang are smart. They were willing to back down unconditionally because they were intimidated. Also, this document contains Ye Chen’s background information.”

“Within just half a year, he progressed from being the number one expert in River City, then the number one expert in Jiangnan Province. He even defeated Lin Juelong in the martial arts arena a few days ago. In a sense, he is as strong or stronger than the first-ranked expert on the grandmaster rankings.”

“The martial arts arena incident that day was listed as an SSS-class confidential document by the government.”

“According to the rumors, this kid killed a guardian that day and even wiped out a top family in the capital. This kid is more capable than we imagined.”

Hearing Old Master Li’s words, everyone present gasped.

This kid actually killed a guardian?

What kind of f*cking strength was this?

The family members started whispering.

“Also, the expert that we sent today to destroy the Dark Hall branch in Xiangjiang City and silence them is probably dead.”

Old Master Li narrowed his eyes, indicating that he was very interested in this matter.

“Dad, what does the Dark Hall have to do with this?” the middle-aged man asked in surprise.

Old Master Li snorted coldly and said, “The leader of the Dark Hall is Ye Chen. We can forget about taking action against the Dark Hall in Xiangjiang City in the future. I also think Ye Chen knows something about Jiang Dao Mountain, and it’s very likely that he knows about our plan.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a guest elder of the Li family, who was sixty or seventy years old, said, “Patriarch, Ye Chen is still a variable. Since he and those people from Dark Hall know about our plan, should we send someone to eliminate them?”

Old Master Li’s old fingers rapped the table and said, “I’ve thought about this for a long time. From Jiang Dao Mountain’s death warrant, it’s obvious that Jiang Dao Mountain and Ye Chen are enemies. In the business world, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. It’s the same in the martial arts world. Our family is determined to get that thing. Instead of making an extra enemy, it’s better to pull Ye Chen into our camp.”

“Yuncheng, tomorrow, go and meet this person. Be friendly. If you can make friends with him, it will be for the best. However, this kind of expert will naturally be arrogant, so you will need to take things slowly.”

The middle-aged man was stunned. Although he was a little unhappy, he still nodded.

“Dad, leave this matter to me.”

After Old Master Li gave his instructions, his gaze fell on the young man on the screen.

“In a while, the sects from that place will probably come out to choose geniuses again. Given this child’s talent, once he is chosen, the Ye family will definitely rise to become one of the top families in Huaxia. This young man’s methods were extraordinary and decisive. If he receives guidance from the Kunlun Mountains, he will definitely develop to become an unparalleled expert.”

The next morning, Ye Chen woke up from his cultivation and exhaled slowly. When his gaze fell on Wei Ying, he realized that her body was covered in countless ice crystals. The temperature in the hotel room was extremely low.

Had it not been for the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun technique he cultivated, which belonged to the Yang element, he would probably be affected as well.

Furthermore, he also noticed that Wei Ying’s aura had become much stronger. The Fiendish Blood Cold Physique was indeed a great boon to cultivators.

Wei Ying seemed to have sensed something and opened her eyes. A trace of bloodlust bloomed in her eyes, but it quickly dissipated..
