"The old man has so history with these two, and I hope the Empress won’t bla them."
Upon hearing this, the elder known as Qi Yunshu smiled warmly, appearing benevolent and kind-hearted.
At this mont, Ye Chen suddenly widened his eyes, then a look of realization dawned upon him.
Qi Yunshu, the na was very familiar. Ye Chen now recalled that the person he rescued from beneath the Netherworld Hall, Wang Yunting, was indeed the ssenger of the Yin Yang Shrine.
Wang Yunting had told Ye Chen that he was responsible for delivering ssages to a person nad Qi Yunshu, who was evidently this elder before him.
Knowing the elder’s identity, Ye Chen also realized why the elder’s aura felt so familiar to him.
Because last ti in the Nine Death Realm, Ye Luo was in crisis, and the one holding Ye Luo hostage summoned the Han Yuan Venerate from the Emperor Abyss Palace. At that ti, a mysterious presence descended to protect Ye Chen and the others from the Sky-covering Demon Emperor. This mysterious presence’s aura was exactly the sa as Qi Yunshu’s.
Clearly, this elder before him was the mysterious presence who entrusted Ye Chen with the Twin Fish Jade Pendant, and was also the Qi Yunshu ntioned by Wang Yunting.
Ye Chen dared to confirm this, also because the last ti he t the person, the person stated they were from the Yin Yang Shrine and inford him that the day the Twin Fish flows would be the gathering day of the Yin Yang Shrine.
Although the Twin Fish on the Twin Fish Jade Pendant hadn’t moved, they had shown signs of unusual movent, clearly caused by the presence of this person.
This all indicated that Qi Yunshu was indeed from the Yin Yang Shrine. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be protecting Ye Chen, and his appearance gave Ye Chen so comfort.
At this mont, upon hearing Qi Yunshu’s words, Xuan Jiyue’s gaze suddenly turned cold. She then spoke in a chilling tone, "Qi Yunshu, are you opposing the Empress? You should know very well that anyone who opposes the Empress ets a bad end."
Hearing Xuan Jiyue’s blatant threat, Qi Yunshu displayed a helpless smile.
"Empress, no matter what, I have to protect these two. I hope the Empress will understand."
"Why!"
Hearing this, Xuan Jiyue couldn’t help but question loudly. She was determined to obtain the Sacred Origin Heart, and Qi Yunshu’s decision to protect Ye Chen and Wei Ying clearly ant keeping the Sacred Origin Heart, which made her extrely angry.
After all, Xuan Jiyue was aware of Qi Yunshu’s strength. At this mont, she and Dishi Tian were both avatars, while Qi Yunshu had arrived in his true body. Even if she and Dishi Tian joined forces, they couldn’t do anything to him.
But Qi Yunshu’s insistence on protecting Ye Chen and Wei Ying made Xuan Jiyue extrely furious; she wanted to know why.
Xuan Jiyue’s gaze was profound, occasionally shimring with light as she stared intently at Qi Yunshu, constantly speculating in her mind.
Seeing Xuan Jiyue’s state, Dishi Tian stood silently by the side, internally speculating about Qi Yunshu’s identity.
anwhile, seeing Xuan Jiyue asking for reasons, Qi Yunshu imdiately spoke, "In fact, the Sacred Origin Heart was originally a guardian item of the Qi Family. Now that it’s erged, as a mber of the Qi Family, I must protect the Sacred Origin Heart."
"And the Sacred Origin Heart has a spirit. Since it chose these two people to fuse with, I have no choice but to protect them both."
Qi Yunshu looked at Xuan Jiyue with a sincere deanor, "The duty of the Qi Family mbers is as such, I hope the Empress understands."
Without waiting for Xuan Jiyue and Dishi Tian to react, Qi Yunshu suddenly transford into boundless Hongng aura and disappeared.
At the sa ti, Ye Chen and Wei Ying, who had been standing behind Qi Yunshu, along with the Sacred Origin Heart, vanished without leaving any trace or aura.
...
In a mysterious space, countless tall mountains and rivers existed. At the very center of this space was a circular plaza surrounded by towering black giant trees.
The circular plaza was utterly vacant, not even a speck of dust could be found.
At this mont, a figure unexpectedly appeared here, none other than Qi Yunshu.
Qi Yunshu stood in the center of the plaza, his eyes shimring with profound Divine Radiance. The next mont, with a wave of his hand, Ye Chen and Wei Ying suddenly appeared on the plaza.
Ye Chen and Wei Ying landed on the plaza, both feeling a bit groggy. Just now, Qi Yunshu had used so unknown thod to envelop them in darkness, and then they experienced a whirlwind sensation before ending up here.
"What is this place?"
Ye Chen looked around at the black giant trees and the plaza beneath his feet, vaguely sensing that this place seed to hide a great secret.
"You don’t need to know what this place is."
At this mont, Qi Yunshu’s calm voice resounded.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen looked toward him and imdiately expressed gratitude, "Thank you, Senior, for rescuing us repeatedly. Ye Chen is deeply grateful."
"No need."
Qi Yunshu nonchalantly waved his hand, causing strands of Hongng aura to gather before Ye Chen and Wei Ying, eventually forming into a Tripod Furnace.
"Where is the Sacred Origin Heart? I will help you fuse it."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen glanced at Wei Ying. Qi Yunshu rescuing them indicated he wasn’t harboring any ill intentions. Since Qi Yunshu said he would help them fuse the Sacred Origin Heart, they should leave it to him.
Seeing Ye Chen’s glance, Wei Ying instantly understood and imdiately waved her hand, making the Sacred Origin Heart materialize out of thin air.
The Sacred Origin Heart now differed greatly from before. Previously it was in two halves; now they were fused together, about to complete the fusion, and strands of black demonic energy had erged within the majestic Sacred Origin Heart.
This black demonic energy was highly agitated and contained extrely terrifying power, seemingly capable of destroying the All Heavens and shattering the Universe.
Seeing this black demonic energy, Qi Yunshu also narrowed his eyes. This black demonic energy was caused by an anomaly in the Sacred Origin Heart. The Sacred Origin Heart had reached a crucial mont in its fusion process, but was interrupted by Wei Ying, who attempted to use it for self-destruction.
Although Qi Yunshu had intervened to prevent the Sacred Origin Heart from self-destructing, it left a lingering threat, manifested by the black demonic energy, making the Sacred Origin Heart extrely unstable and potentially explosive, posing a terrible disaster.
Looking at the black demonic energy within the Sacred Origin Heart, Ye Chen’s eyes flickered. Qi Yunshu’s conversation with Xuan Jiyue and others wasn’t kept secret from them.
Therefore, Ye Chen clearly understood the connection between Qi Yunshu and the Sacred Origin Heart. He was its guardian, and with the ergence of black demonic energy inside the Sacred Origin Heart, likely only he could eliminate it.
At this mont, Qi Yunshu gazed at the near-fused Sacred Origin Heart, a sigh of emotion passing through his eyes. He then motioned with his hand, and the Sacred Origin Heart flew toward him.
The Sacred Origin Heart, although extrely unstable and potentially on the verge of explosion, imdiately cald down in Qi Yunshu’s hand, as if appeased.
Seeing this, Ye Chen and Wei Ying exchanged glances. Their attempts to fuse with the Sacred Origin Heart had been incredibly difficult, as if dealing with a mischievous child. Yet for Qi Yunshu, the Sacred Origin Heart behaved like a well-behaved child.
