Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 121

Chapter 121: But It’s True That Imperial Brother Is Stronger Than Me

Ye Yu looked at the person who spoke. That person was big and burly, wearing the attire of a certain sect, with a cultivation base at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan patted the person’s shoulder and said, “When we’re out and about, and especially heading to such a dangerous place, our cultivation bases are relatively weak, so we should look out for each other. If it were you, you’d also hope to have some like-minded friends. ”

His words were heartfelt and moving, causing the large man who had previously scolded Ye Yu to shamefully lower his head.

“As expected of Elder Ren’s direct disciple, such character is truly admirable. ”

“I’ve learned a lot. If the disciples of those Major Sects were like Brother Ye, there would probably be far fewer conflicts. ”

Ye Xuan smiled humbly, but a hint of arrogance flashed in his eyes.

The commotion here caught Liu Qi’s attention. Seeing Ye Yu facing Ye Xuan, he was about to walk over, but Ye Yu gestured for him not to.

“In that case, I’ll join you then. ” Ye Yu grinned and said.

The tone wasn’t very friendly, and the group behind Ye Xuan immediately darkened their faces, but Ye Xuan didn’t care.

In his eyes, these people were just cannon fodder. If Ren Xiaoyao hadn’t told him that the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb was extremely dangerous, he wouldn’t have brought these people in.

After making the agreement, Ye Xuan returned to Ren Xiaoyao’s side.

Ren Xiaoyao chatted with Gu Yue while scanning the crowd. He knew Ye Yu’s identity as the Zi Xiao Saint Son. The Zi Xiao Sword Tomb was opening; how could he not be there? But right now, he really didn’t see him.

“Brother Ren, are you looking for someone? ” Gu Yue noticed Ren Xiaoyao’s strange behavior and immediately spoke.

Ren Xiaoyao chuckled dryly and said, “At such a grand gathering, not seeing Liu Qi is really not right. ”

“Liu Qi, ah, he came, but then he left. ” Gu Yue waved his hand and then informed Ren Xiaoyao of Ye Yu and Gu Yue’s whereabouts.

Upon hearing that the two had left, Ren Xiaoyao showed a look of disdain. The Zi Xiao Saint Son, his disposition is just like that.

In his opinion, Ye Yu must have sensed danger and immediately even abandoned the resources in the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb and fled.

As time passed, the purple light behind Zi Xiao Peak grew stronger and stronger. Everyone knew that when this purple light reached its peak, it would be the time when the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb opened.

Soon, the purple light enveloping the Zi Xiao Sword Sect gradually converged, finally shining on a pillar in the plaza of Zi Xiao Peak.

With a buzzing sound, a spatial passage gradually appeared before everyone.

This Sword Tomb was opened by the Founding Ancestor of the Zi Xiao Sword Sect. It was usually hidden in a void space. When the spiritual energy around Zi Xiao Peak reached its peak, it would gather the Zi Xiao divine light to shine on the divine pillar and open the Sword Tomb.

Seeing the passage open, the cultivators no longer waited and rushed inside.

Liu Qi glanced back at Ye Yu. Seeing that he had no reaction, he was the first to go in. Originally, Liu Qi was worried that he wouldn’t be able to enter, because the Sword Tomb’s passage restricted those at the Transformation God Mid Stage and above from entering.

Only unexpectedly, this Concealing Veil could even deceive the restrictions set by the Zi Xiao Ancestor.

Ye Yu, however, followed leisurely behind Ye Xuan’s large group and drifted inside.

As soon as he stepped in, Ye Yu glanced around and saw that the surroundings were full of steles, each with a sword stuck in it, and he couldn’t even see the end at a glance.

Broken Swords were also visible everywhere on the ground. It seemed that many Sword Cultivators had perished here over the years.

“Goodness, this is truly a Sword Tomb in name and deed. ” Someone in the crowd said.

These people’s faces didn’t look very good. Those who came were all Sword Cultivators with extraordinary talent; many had already comprehended Sword Intent.

They all had a mysterious connection with swords.

The moment they stepped into this place, they felt a sense of sadness from the Ancient Swords around them.

All famous swords and Ancient Swords have spirituality and an unyielding spirit. The fact that these swords had this feeling shows that this place is not a benevolent land.

Though they sighed, the group still cautiously proceeded deeper.

Although there were no living people here, there was a type of Exotic Beast called Sword-Attendant Beasts, rumored to be transformed from decaying Sword Spirits, very powerful.

But if one could obtain the Core of a Sword-Attendant Beast, it would be very beneficial to one’s Sword Dao cultivation.

As they walked, someone suddenly noticed something was wrong. Every time they passed a place, the Ancient Swords that were originally on the steles would tilt slightly, and they all tilted in the same direction, towards them.

“This is joy. I feel a hint of joy from these swords! ” A Nascent Soul Peak Sword Cultivator sensed carefully and said in surprise.

Ye Yu looked at him in astonishment, not expecting this person’s perception to be so sharp.

Since Ye Yu stepped into this place, he had felt the goodwill coming from the surrounding Ancient Swords, as if they were all begging Ye Yu to take them away from here.

However, the situation of the Sword Tomb was still unclear, so Ye Yu naturally wouldn’t act rashly, lest he cause unnecessary trouble.

“I understand. These swords probably sensed Brother Ye’s presence! ” Someone suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone lowered their heads and thought about it; that’s exactly right. Otherwise, there’s no way to explain why these Ancient Swords had this reaction after they passed by.

“Brother Ye is indeed the Sword King Heir. With such Sword Dao talent, we are inferior. ” After understanding all this, someone immediately exclaimed.

Ye Xuan was somewhat puzzled. He didn’t feel anything, but seeing everyone say so, he smiled and nodded, saying, “Actually, in terms of talent, my Imperial Brother is much better than me. ”

Hearing this, Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Xuan, wondering what trick this guy was up to again.

“Brother Ye is referring to the Ye Yu who was among the top ten in the Hundred Dynasties War, I’ve heard of him. But in my opinion, that Ye Yu is still not as good as Brother Ye. ”

“Without saying anything else, just the Sword King Legacy, your Imperial Brother doesn’t have that. ”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “But it’s a fact that my Imperial Brother is stronger than me. Besides, my Imperial Brother fought Zhu Huan, and at that time, he said that the Leizhou cultivators were nothing more than that. ”

After speaking, Ye Xuan seemed to suddenly realize something and quickly shut his mouth.

The faces of the people around him were already extremely gloomy.

“Arrogant! Do you really think that winning against Zhu Huan makes you a big shot! ”

“Don’t let me meet him. If I meet him, I’ll have to see what kind of arrogant capital this person has! ”

Ye Yu chuckled. Wow, even when he arrived in Leizhou, he still didn’t forget to get me into trouble.

Seeing that his purpose was achieved, Ye Xuan stopped speaking and silently walked inward, looking like a child who had done something wrong.

Soon, several people stopped, and a cave appeared before them. A powerful fluctuation emanated from the cave, comparable to that of a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator.

Everyone understood that they had encountered a Sword Beast, but the Nascent Soul Peak aura made everyone hesitant to approach.

“That Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivator, you come here! Go to the beast’s den ahead and check the situation! ” Someone suddenly said, pointing at Ye Yu.

A Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivator against a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator, going there would only lead to death.

But everyone tacitly didn’t say anything and chose to default.
