Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s unabashed words,
Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s nerves tensed. Now, the two of them were like fish on the cutting board, at Ye Chenfeng’s rcy. However, being the pride of the Wus and the Jiangs, it was unrealistic to say they didn’t have life-saving cards in their hands. Yet, to play those cards and escape from the Ghost Cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Divine King Realm, they would have to pay a considerable price.
Ye Chenfeng noticed the shifting expressions of Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan. A smile erged at the corner of his mouth; such proud won should be properly frightened, or else they won’t learn for the next ti.
As Ye Chenfeng was about to speak, Old Bai and Old Hei voiced their doubt. Old Bai Wu Fengxian said, "The ridians in these two girls’ bodies don’t seem right."
Old Hei Jiang Yuntian added, "Kid, hold their palms, let Old Bai and carefully sense their ridians through your hands."
Seeing Old Bai and Old Hei’s seriousness, Ye Chenfeng grabbed Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s soft palms without hesitation, causing the fluctuating expression Wu Lingxiang to angrily exclaim, "You—"
Jiang Caixuan even shouted in frustration, "You little thief, daring to take advantage of ti and again, I won’t let you off!"
At the sa ti, Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan had already decided to play their cards at any cost; they couldn’t endure Ye Chenfeng taking advantage of them again. Although their acupoints were sealed, once the card was played, the seal on their acupoints would automatically be lifted, but the process of playing the card required so ti.
Old Bai and Old Hei sensed each of Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s ridians through Ye Chenfeng’s palms.
A mont later,
Old Bai and Old Hei were furious, their curses echoing in Ye Chenfeng’s mind.
Ye Chenfeng asked, "Old Bai, Old Hei, what’s happening?"
Old Bai Wu Fengxian said, "Young fellow, these two girls have been hit by the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger, their lifespan is fixed at five hundred years, who could be so vicious?"
Old Hei Jiang Yuntian angrily replied, "Old Bai, do we even need to guess? It must be our old enemy, who wasn’t satisfied with causing the decline of our two families?"
"If I’m not mistaken, our old enemy has been watching our families closely! These two girls, at such a young age, possess the strength of the fourth level of the Heavenly God Realm; their talents must be outstanding."
"Our old enemy naturally can’t stand seeing our two families rise again. Based on what I know of him, he wants to see our families struggling to survive. He didn’t outright kill our family’s erging geniuses but used the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger on these girls, limiting their lifespan to five hundred years. During these five hundred years, they can still cultivate, but once those years are up, their ridians will sever, leading to their death."
"Five hundred years is long enough for these talented girls to grow considerably. Then suddenly, they will die, ntally tornting the people of our families."
Ye Chenfeng was secretly alard; he asked, "Is the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger difficult to counteract?"
Old Bai Wu Fengxian replied, "The Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger is an extrely sinister thod from the Ancient Era."
"First finger severs ridians!"
"Second finger devours the soul!"
"Third finger determines life and death!"
"The Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger consists of these three fingers; mastering the first finger can sever the opponent’s ridians entirely. Mastering the second finger can consu the opponent’s soul. Mastering the third finger can control the ti of the opponent’s ridian severing and soul consumption."
"What they have is the third finger, life and death-permitting. Once their five hundred years are up, not only will their ridians completely sever, but their souls will also be utterly devoured, denying them even the chance of reincarnation. Such cruelty speaks volus."
"The most pressing issue is that ordinary individuals can’t detect this life and death finger, making it incredibly difficult to resolve the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger."
Ye Chenfeng looked at Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s embarrassed and angry faces. He sighed deeply, realizing they were also tragic figures. Spiritual Energy within him seeped into Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan to investigate further.
After probing, the Dragon Clan Leader mark on Ye Chenfeng’s back suddenly activated, revealing that Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s ridians showed no apparent issues.
Ye Chenfeng too, couldn’t feel any problems on his own, but as the Dragon Clan Leader mark activated, he sensed an invisible force clinging to their ridians like a ticking bomb, with no one knowing when it might explode.
Old Bai and Old Hei also sensed the change in the Dragon Clan Leader mark; their hearts brightened as Old Bai Wu Fengxian said, "Young one, it seems the heavens haven’t dood us! Your Dragon Clan Leader mark seems able to restrain the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger. Give it more thought, and you should be able to resolve the Finger within these girls."
"You needn’t ntion our discoveries to them now; just point out their physical issues."
Ye Chenfeng released the hands of Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan, their beautiful eyes fixed in concentration; their cards weren’t yet prepared. Since Ye Chenfeng had let go of their hands, might he be planning sothing even bolder?
Jiang Caixuan imdiately teased, "Little brother, I’ll be yours sooner or later, there’s no need to rush; don’t you want to know better?"
Jiang Caixuan was rely stalling.
Wu Lingxiang was overwheld with both sha and anger, glaring at Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng lifted Jiang Caixuan’s chin with his finger, laughing, "Sister, I’ve already experienced your personality, no need to spend more ti understanding."
"You little rogue, I won’t let this go." Seeing Ye Chenfeng unmoved, Jiang Caixuan cursed.
Ye Chenfeng shook his head, "Alright, alright, ladies, I’m not interested in your physical forms; I’m intrigued by the ridians inside. Both of you have been hit by the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger?"
"First finger severs ridians, second finger devours the soul, third finger determines life and death. Ladies, you only have five hundred years. Am I correct?"
Upon hearing this,
Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan abandoned their attempts at unleashing their cards, their eyes filled with shock. The fact they were afflicted by the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger was only known to their family’s ancestors, even the Family Head and Elders were unaware. Strong cultivators couldn’t discern their condition, yet this young man in front of them uncovered their secret.
Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan exchanged a glance; neither knew the other was similarly afflicted by the Finger, but they both realized Ye Chenfeng hadn’t erred.
Even their family’s Divine King Realm experts couldn’t detect their condition, so how could this Divinity Transformation Realm youngster do so? Who was he?
Wu Lingxiang’s bright eyes were more solemn; she asked, "Who are you?"
Jiang Caixuan added, "Did soone send you to target us?"
Jiang Caixuan couldn’t understand why a re Divinity Transformation Realm youngster had such powerful ghost servants and could detect their condition.
Ye Chenfeng calmly replied, "Who I am doesn’t matter; the crucial factor is that I’m the one who can save you. I can dissolve the Soul-Devouring Vein-severing Finger within you."
What?
Wu Lingxiang and Jiang Caixuan’s eyes widened, faces filled with disbelief. Their family’s forebearers couldn’t dissolve the Finger, and now this Divinity Transformation Realm youth claims to be their savior? Preposterous! Their family forebearers could single-handedly conquer the entire Central Continent, yet couldn’t resolve their plight; how could a re unknown Divinity Transformation Realm lad?
