Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 146

Chapter 146: Identity Exposed

“Are you still feeling wronged? Didn’t you tell me you gave your spot to Xu Wangchen? ”

A shout rang out.

Immediately, a series of agreeing voices sounded around.

Originally, they had come to find Xu Wangchen some trouble because of Ye Xuan’s words, and also to vent their own frustrations at not having a spot, but now the result was like this.

Ironically, he looked like he was taking the blame.

Listening to the surrounding voices, Ye Xuan’s face flushed red, and he wished he could bury his head underground.

This shouldn’t be happening, how could this be, why is all the blame pointed at me?

The development of the situation was somewhat beyond Ye Xuan’s expectations. For a long time, Ye Xuan couldn’t utter a single word.

Seeing this, the Nine Spirits Sect Master snorted, but didn’t pursue it further. Instead, they gave Ye Yu a deep look and then said, “Wangchen, come with me. ”

After saying this, they took Ye Yu into the Main Hall.

After the two left, Ye Xuan raised his head and looked coldly at the Main Hall in front of him, with intense resentment in his eyes, “Xu Wangchen, you’re going to pay for this! ”

Ye Yu followed the Nine Spirits Sect Master all the way to the Sword Peak Entrance.

“Wangchen, it seems you don’t get along very well with Ye Xuan? ” the Nine Spirits Sect Master said calmly, their gaze at Ye Yu containing a bit more probing.

“Sect Master, you misunderstand. ” Ye Yu replied indifferently.

The Nine Spirits Sect Master looked back at Ye Yu, didn’t say anything more, took out a Token, and opened the Sealing in front of them.

A stone staircase leading upwards was revealed. Above the staircase was Sword Peak.

Ye Yu didn’t hesitate and strode upwards. As soon as his foot touched the steps, Ye Yu frowned and looked back at the Nine Spirits Sect Master.

The Nine Spirits Sect Master’s expression was calm, but under the perception of their Earth Realm Peak Soul, Ye Yu clearly sensed that the speed of spiritual energy circulation within the Nine Spirits Sect Master’s body was gradually increasing.

After a long stare, Ye Yu grinned and strode inside.

Watching Ye Yu’s figure gradually disappear from sight, the Nine Spirits Sect Master restored the Sealing and said to the side, “Gu Yuan, do you know the consequences you will bear if this news is wrong? Even if you are the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Hall, I will not let you off. ”

From the corner, Gu Yuan’s figure appeared. Stepping forward, he bowed to the Nine Spirits Sect Master and said, “I assure the Sect Master that I personally saw Ye Yu enter the Alchemy Alliance Hall, and when he came out, he had become Xu Wangchen. ”

“Furthermore, this matter has been verified by Han Yi, one of the Authority figures of the Alchemy Alliance. ”

After listening, the Nine Spirits Sect Master’s gaze turned cold, “How bold! To dare to play tricks on my Nine Spirits Sword Sect! This matter must not be leaked. Let’s just say Xu Wangchen died on Sword Peak. Understand? ”

The fact that the Zi Xiao Saint Son infiltrated the Nine Spirits Sword Sect, and even obtained a Celestial-Grade Spiritual Technique from the Nine Spirits Sword Sect Scripture Depository, if this news got out, the Nine Spirits Sword Sect would no longer have the qualifications to exist in Leizhou.

“Yes, Sect Master. ” Gu Yuan nodded, naturally understanding the stakes.

Then the Nine Spirits Sect Master waved their hand and said, “Go get Ye Xuan. I will take him to Sword Peak. As for Xu Wangchen, or rather Ye Yu, being able to become a sacrifice isn’t a waste of the time the Nine Spirits Sword Sect spent cultivating him. ”

After speaking, the Nine Spirits Sect Master walked towards another place. The place Ye Yu had entered earlier was not Sword Peak, but the Nine Spirits Forbidden Zone.

Inside the Forbidden Zone, Ye Yu looked up at the pitch-black staircase in front of him, which led to an unknown destination. He formed Hand Seals, and a faint Green Light enveloped his body.

As soon as he stepped onto the staircase, Ye Yu sensed something was wrong. In this so-called Sword Peak, there was no Sword Qi, and even the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy was chaotic, completely unlike a Sect’s Secret Realm.

But at the same time, Ye Yu clearly felt the Xuantian Cauldron’s movement. Clearly, something here was attracting it.

Glancing around, Ye Yu flipped his palm, and the Glass Sword appeared in his hand. He slowly walked step by step deeper into the staircase.

He didn’t know how long he walked, until a faint smell of bl00d filled the air, Ye Yu stopped. In front of him was a huge pit, and at the bottom of the pit, a huge creature, whose body seemed to span a hundred zhang, seemed to be lying prostrate.

Its whole body was bound by chains. On the ground in front of it, many bones were scattered, those bones were crystal clear, and their owners were at least Nascent Soul cultivators in their previous lives. Obviously, many cultivators had died here.

Clang clang clang…

Suddenly, the sound of chains being dragged rang out. Ye Yu stiffened. The enormous creature below slowly raised its head at this moment, its pair of crimson eyes staring fixedly at Ye Yu.

Ye Yu finally saw the creature’s full appearance, “Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast! ”

Now Ye Yu knew where Gu Yuan’s fire came from!

Roar!

Seeing Ye Yu, the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast suddenly let out a roar, and then its huge claws directly pounced, pulling countless chains, making a muffled thunder-like sound in this deep dark valley.

Ye Xuan’s face changed. With a forceful movement of his feet, he instantly leaped into the air, and with his Glass Sword, he slashed out. Countless Sword Qi erupted, directly confronting the huge beast claw.

The sound of metal clashing echoed, and countless sparks lit up the dark valley. The Sword Qi Ye Yu slashed out only left streaks of firelight on the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast’s body, but couldn’t break its defense.

Seeing the huge claw approaching, Ye Yu used the Nine Turns Dragon Soaring Steps to narrowly dodge it, but his shoulder was still scratched by the claw.

A sharp pain came, but Ye Yu didn’t have the time to care about the wound. He quickly prepared to deal with the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast’s second attack.

Just a light graze could have such power. It’s hard to imagine that if Ye Yu’s Illusory Dragon Wind Thunder Body hadn’t improved further, he would have been torn in half by now.

Using the speed of the Nine Turns Dragon Soaring Steps, Ye Yu dodged several attacks from the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast. It was while dodging that Ye Yu noticed something was wrong.

There was a scale on the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast’s forehead that was clearly unusual. It wasn’t so much a scale as a piece of Green Bronze.

At this thought, Ye Yu’s eyes suddenly widened. Remembering the Xuantian Cauldron’s movement, a trace of wild joy gradually filled his eyes. This Green Bronze Piece was probably, like the one on the Hundred Dynasties Battlefield, a missing Fragment of the Xuantian Cauldron.

Whew… After confirming this, Ye Yu let out a long breath, looked at the Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast at the bottom of the pit, slowly raised the Glass Sword in his hand, and red spiritual energy rose around his body. His entire aura changed at this moment.

A figure wielding a Bl00d Sword slowly condensed behind Ye Yu.

The Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast sensed the change in Ye Yu and continuously let out fearful growls. Its entire body also crouched down, looking ready to pounce.

But at this moment, there seemed to be a tremor in the dark valley. The Ice Crystal Dragon Scale Beast quickly turned around, ignoring Ye Yu and directly pressing its head against a crack.

Ye Yu’s gaze was also fixed on that crack at this moment.

Strand after strand of Bl00d Qi, which was incredibly familiar to Ye Yu, continuously seeped out from it.
