Chapter 3075: Chapter 3849: Shadows in the Dark (Sixth Update)
"He currently resides near the Heavenly Dao Palace, inside Liuyao Mountain."
The Supreme Dragon Emperor seemed to know some secrets and revealed them directly.
"Near the Heavenly Dao Palace?"
Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat.
He harbored an immense hatred against the Heavenly Dao Palace, leaving no possibility for mediation.
If he went to Liuyao Mountain and was discovered by hidden experts of the Heavenly Dao Palace, he would undoubtedly die.
"Whether to go or not, take your time to consider."
The Supreme Dragon Emperor did not say much and stood beside Luo.
Ye Chen was silent. Liuyao Mountain was very close to the Heavenly Dao Palace, and if he ventured there, he would easily risk exposure.
But if he didn’t go, with time dragging on, Little Gold would inevitably explode.
As for the White Bone Relics, Ye Chen was not concerned.
With Little Gold’s ability, even staking its life, even if it couldn’t destroy those White Bone Relics, it could erase the memories stored within, ensuring that the information wouldn’t reach the Upper Realm.
For now, his situation was temporarily safe.
The Empress of the Upper Realm could not receive any reports, so she wouldn’t know that the Samsara Master had already been resurrected, nor would she know about the various events in the Divine Kingdom.
Ye Chen’s only concern was Little Gold’s safety.
If Little Gold was still alive, that would be ideal. If Little Gold died, perhaps there might still be a Residual Soul left. Ye Chen needed to quickly investigate its whereabouts, at least to collect the body and soul, preventing Little Gold from completely being destroyed like Chong Guang Emperor, utterly dissipating.
"Brother Ye, what do you plan to do?"
Luo asked worriedly.
"I plan to go find Little Gold’s whereabouts, so I might have to leave first, Luo, I’m sorry."
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. Having just slain Xuan Jiyue, he thought he could gain a moment of peace, a chance to reunite with Luo and Ji Siqing properly.
But unfortunately, with Little Gold on its own, Ye Chen could no longer stay here and had to quickly investigate Little Gold’s whereabouts.
"It’s okay."
Luo’s eyes were full of disappointment, but she also knew Ye Chen had more important matters to attend to, leaving no possibility of staying here to catch up.
"Until next time."
Ye Chen approached Luo, gently touched her face, and bid farewell.
"Ye Chen..."
Not far away, Ji Siqing cleared her throat and looked at them indifferently.
"Siqing, although we’ve met, I also wish to spend some time with you, but I have to go find Little Gold."
Ye Chen smiled slightly, recalling the various moments with her over these days, feeling almost dreamlike.
"Hmm."
Ji Siqing slightly nodded her beautiful head, not showing any emotion, as cold and aloof as ever, leaving everyone guessing her thoughts.
But these past days, she and Ye Chen, a solitary man and woman, went through hardships together.
When Ye Chen treated her injuries, he even took off her clothes; these unforgettable memories would likely stay with her for a lifetime.
Although she said nothing, she would also conduct her own search for Little Gold.
She vaguely felt that the Ancient Immemorial Species could not fall so easily.
Even after devouring something against the heavens.
"Farewell."
Ye Chen glanced at Ji Siqing and then at Luo, cupping his hands as he took his leave.
"Brother Ye!"
Luo shouted, watching Ye Chen’s departing figure, feeling a deep sense of loss.
Ji Siqing’s eyebrows were indifferent, showing no emotion, as she flew away on a sword.
"Master, let’s go back to rest."
The Supreme Dragon Emperor said respectfully.
"Hmm."
Luo nodded, her eyes still bewildered.
The Supreme Dragon Emperor supported her, leading her away from this place, back to the depths of the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace, into a bedchamber, to rest Luo.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Dragon Emperor did not rest and instead returned to where the Yan Tian Dragon God was imprisoned.
Tribulation lightning had just descended, damaging much of the palace that held the Yan Tian Dragon God, with tendrils of black smoke still rising.
The Yan Tian Dragon God had also been affected by the tribulation lightning, with lightning scars riddling his body, looking exceptionally battered.
"Yan Tian, are you willing to hand over the Reincarnation Tablet now?"
The Supreme Dragon Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, striding into the hall.
"Supreme Dragon Emperor, if you have the guts, just kill me!"
The Yan Tian Dragon God’s eyes were blood-red, yet he showed no signs of submission.
"If you remain stubborn, don’t blame me for discarding old affections and subjecting you to daily torture."
The Supreme Dragon Emperor said coldly.
The Yan Tian Dragon God shouted, "Use whatever tricks you have, I, Yan Tian Dragon God, fear nothing!"
"Yan Tian, why be so hard on yourself?"
The Supreme Dragon Emperor shook his head, "I’ll give you some more time to think about it, this is your last chance."
After saying that, the Supreme Dragon Emperor turned to leave, as he had to look after Luo and couldn’t linger here for too long.
The Yan Tian Dragon God spat with anger in his eyes.
"Lord Yan Tian, please endure for a few more days."
Suddenly, a very subtle, nearly inaudible voice reached the Yan Tian Dragon God’s ears.
"Who?"
Yan Tian Dragon God was suddenly shocked, scanning his surroundings but seeing not a trace of a human figure.
"It’s me, Tian Lang."
From a shadow in the corner of the hall.
A three-eyed man with a sword on his back emerged halfway from the shadow.
It was Tian Lang!
His entire being seemed less a flesh and blood form and more a hazy illusion.
Even while revealing himself, the Yan Tian Dragon God couldn’t detect the presence of a living person, not even capturing Tian Lang’s unique demonic energy.
"Your Sky Escaping Stealth Technique has improved again."
The Yan Tian Dragon God was utterly amazed.
Tian Lang’s stealth technique was practically unparalleled; no trace of sound or presence was leaked.
"Hurry, get me out!"
The Yan Tian Dragon God hurriedly urged, desperate to escape this prison-like place.
"Sorry, Lord Yan Tian, I can’t rescue you."
Tian Lang shook his head, "Once I act, if my presence leaks and the enemy discovers, the consequences would be unimaginable."
The Yan Tian Dragon God urgently said, "What are you afraid of? The Supreme Dragon Emperor is wounded, and so is Luo, likely. If we really fight, you have an eighty percent chance of killing those two."
"Sorry, but I can’t take the risk. Please endure a few more days, my lord."
Tian Lang still shook his head, his nature extremely cautious. Unless he could absolutely dominate, he wouldn’t act rashly.
Moreover, he had been concealing himself in the Heavenly Dao Palace for years, having virtually no real combat experience. His actual combat strength wasn’t strong; he excelled only in stealth assassination. Facing someone head-on, his chances of victory were slim, far from having an eighty percent success rate.
Attempting an ambush or assassination was impractical, too.
After all, neither the Supreme Dragon Emperor nor Luo were like Chong Guang Emperor, who were merely Soul Bodies; they had immensely durable physiques and bloodlines. If he couldn’t kill with one strike, he would be counterattacked, which was extremely dangerous.
"Please remain calm, my lord. I will report to the Lord Palace Master immediately for a decision."
Tian Lang cupped his hands.
His purpose for coming here was merely to investigate the Yan Tian Dragon God’s whereabouts, not to rescue him.
