Chapter 1358: Chapter 1349: Shui nghan’s Determination
Previously, Ye Chenfeng was personally brought to the temporary residence of the Shuis by Shui Ziyan. At that ti, many people had witnessed this scene, so Jiang Motian was aware of Ye Chenfeng’s presence. However, he didn’t expect Shui nghan to throw herself into Ye Chenfeng’s arms upon seeing him.
Jiang Motian instantly saw through Ye Chenfeng’s strength, which was rely at the Ocean Gathering Realm Second Heavenly Layer Initial Stage. He himself was a Divine Thought Realm First Heavenly Layer Initial Stage expert. He couldn’t understand why Shui nghan would be so blind. In the Earth Profound Realm, strength is respected above all, and won naturally choose powerful n.
Thus, Shui nghan’s action greatly displeased Jiang Motian. But suddenly, his facial expression stiffened because he saw the eerie black spring and tombstone not far behind Ye Chenfeng. He uttered the words on the tombstone, sowhat trembling: “The tomb of the Sword God, He Wuji.”
Jiang Motian shook violently, his face bursting into an excited smile. At that mont, he seed to forget about Ye Chenfeng and Shui nghan. He murmured to himself, “Sword God’s tomb? There’s actually a Sword God’s tomb here? It’s said that those who can be called Sword God can kill a Nirvana Realm expert with one strike, while the strongest in the Earth Profound Realm are only Nirvana Realm. If I can obtain the Sword God’s ultimate skills, who in the Earth Profound Realm could block my rise?”
The middle-aged man in green beside Jiang Motian also had a greedy look in his eyes as he gazed at the tombstone. A Sword God in the Earth Profound Realm existed only in legends, and all who can be called Sword God have reached the pinnacle of Sword Dao. It was said that in the Ancient Era, there were even stronger experts above the Nirvana Realm, but now only unclear records exist in so ancient texts. A Sword God only appeared in the extrely distant Ancient Era.
Yet, a Sword God’s tomb has appeared in these ruins. What does this an? It ans these ruins are relics of the Ancient Era? The number of strong experts in the Ancient Era was countless, yet they sohow all perished later. Now, Jiang Motian and the man in green were already starting to believe that these ruins were created by this Sword God. They found the most precious treasure in these ruins.
Shui nghan, buried in Ye Chenfeng’s arms with moist eyes, turned towards the tombstone upon hearing Jiang Motian’s excited words. After all, Shui nghan was the granddaughter of the Family Head of the Shuis, and the Shuis had nurous ancient texts. Her moist lips slightly parted as she asked, “Brother Ye, why, why is there a Sword God’s tomb here?”
Ye Chenfeng casually replied, “I’m not too sure either.”
Ye Chenfeng’s gaze remained focused on Jiang Motian and the man in green. Recalling how Jiang Motian once regarded him as a weak ant, his anger boiled within.
Ye Chenfeng has always been a very rational person. He knows with his current strength, he is definitely no match for Jiang Motian, but this ti he couldn’t suppress the rage in his heart, or rather, he simply didn’t want to suppress it. Jiang Motian, as Song Chuni’s disciple, is soone Ye Chenfeng believes he must kill personally.
Standing not far in front of Ye Chenfeng, Jiang Motian and the man in green didn’t even regard Ye Chenfeng at all. Jiang Motian said to the man in green beside him, “As long as we can obtain all the treasures in the Sword God’s tomb, we will be the biggest winners this ti. I will definitely not treat you poorly.”
The man in green respectfully said, “Young Master Jiang, rest assured, I have always stood by your side. Once Young Master Jiang obtains the treasures from the Sword God’s tomb, the position of Saint Heir of the Yinming Sect is yours, and the future Sect Master position will also belong to Young Master Jiang.”
Jiang Motian was pleased by the flattery from the man in green. His gaze frosty as he stared at Ye Chenfeng, he disdainfully said, “Brat, I’ll give you a chance to end your own life. After you’re dead, I’ll take good care of Second Miss Shui.”
Ye Chenfeng’s brow furrowed tightly, the fire in his chest burning more intensely. However, hearing Jiang Motian’s words, he roughly guessed that Jiang Motian was unaware of the special Heaven and Earth Laws in these ruins, or Jiang Motian would have already acted against him.
Ye Chenfeng placed Shui nghan behind him and drew his Black Xuan Sword from his back, constantly reminding himself to stay calm, stay calm, thinking about how to deal with Jiang Motian and the man in green in front of him. Divine Thought Realm experts are still incapable of flight in the air!
Ye Chenfeng could use the Spirit Qi Wings to take Shui nghan away, but inside, he harbored a stubborn thought. He didn’t want to submit in front of Jiang Motian; he wanted to sever Jiang Motian’s head.
The aura of Ocean Gathering Realm Second Heavenly Layer Initial Stage on Ye Chenfeng surged wildly. He gripped the Black Xuan Sword tightly in his right hand, from which a chilling killing intent emanated.
Seeing Ye Chenfeng change, Jiang Motian’s disdain grew even more potent: “Kid, looks like you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit? Originally, I wanted to leave you with a complete corpse, but you don’t seem inclined to accept my consideration?”
“Trying to take my life? Let’s see if you have the ability to do so!” Ye Chenfeng’s battle intent surged, and the Green Fla in his Dantian could already burn a Peak Ocean Gathering Realm Fifth Heavenly Layer expert to death. Even if it couldn’t kill a Divine Thought Realm First Heavenly Layer expert, it would surely make Jiang Motian pay dearly.
Although Ye Chenfeng currently can’t fully control the exceedingly powerful Green Fla, even if he insists on using it, the result is likely to be harming a thousand while losing eight hundred himself, but he doesn’t want to avoid it temporarily, as this is his only choice now.
Shielded behind Ye Chenfeng, Shui nghan bit her lips tightly. She said, “Jiang Motian, I can agree to any request of yours as long as you don’t trouble Brother Ye.”
Ye Chenfeng didn’t expect Shui nghan to speak such words for him. It seed Shui nghan’s admiration for him ran deep. Ye Chenfeng touched Shui nghan’s head with his left hand, saying, “Your Brother Ye is not a coward, nor is he a softie who needs a woman to protect him. Just stand safely behind ; nobody can harm you.”
Watching Ye Chenfeng’s extrely serious expression, Shui nghan’s heart twinged inexplicably. As a direct descendant of a major family, few truly cared for her, and any man who approached her was either attracted to her status or her looks. She was sure those n, if faced with danger, would abandon her nine out of ten tis, but Ye Chenfeng wouldn’t. Her Brother Ye wouldn’t!
Shui nghan’s eyes grew more moist; she bit her wet lips hard, thinking to herself: “Brother Ye, thank you, thank you for not abandoning ! Even if the entire Earth Profound Realm becos your enemy in the future, nghan will surely stand by your side. This is the only assurance nghan can give you.”
Actually, Shui nghan harbored a deep-seated scar within her heart. At the age of thirteen, she and her best friend secretly slipped out of the Shuis and entered a mountain range. But back then, they encountered an extrely ferocious monster, and Shui nghan twisted her foot, while her friend abandoned her and ran away alone.
In the end, fortunately, Shui nghan’s father arrived in ti to rescue her, and afterward, the entire family of the person who had left Shui nghan vanished entirely from the Earth Profound Realm overnight.
Since that incident, Shui nghan trusted no one except her grandfather, parents, and sister. While she appeared lively outside, a wall always existed within her heart, keeping others at bay.
Previously, Shui nghan clung to Ye Chenfeng solely because, in her eyes, Ye Chenfeng was a master of Artifact Refining, which she was genuinely interested in.
And at that mont, in Shui nghan’s eyes, Ye Chenfeng’s strength was only at Ocean Gathering Realm Second Heavenly Layer Initial Stage, while Jiang Motian and the man in green had strength at Divine Thought Realm First Heavenly Layer Initial Stage and Ocean Gathering Realm Fifth Heavenly Layer Peak respectively. So no matter how she looked at it, Ye Chenfeng was headed for certain death.
However, when Shui nghan voluntarily offered to sacrifice herself for Ye Chenfeng’s safety, Ye Chenfeng refused without hesitation and sincerely promised to protect Shui nghan. This made Shui nghan truly fall for Ye Chenfeng.
Shui nghan didn’t voice what she had just thought. As a sowhat obstinate young girl, her face no longer showed despair or worry, which was quite mismatched with the current tense atmosphere. She said, “Brother Ye, I was joking last ti when I said I wanted you to be my man. But now, I say very seriously, I, Shui nghan, am willing to be your woman, Brother Ye, as long as you don’t mind.”
