Chapter 919: Stood Up!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not long after, in a teahouse outside the Blessed Cemetery.

The teahouse had been cleared and there were five to six powerful experts standing guard outside, one of which was a Daoyuan realm expert.

Mo Ning sat alone, drinking the best tea.

One cup, and then another.

Time passed, and eventually, Mo Ning’s calm eyes showed a hint of anger.

Ye Chen was not here yet!

Ever since she was young, she had never waited for anyone. Yet today, she was being stood up!

No matter what the reason was, this was unforgivable!

The middle-aged man rushed in. His face was ferocious as he said angrily, “Miss Mo, there’s no need to wait any longer. Those two b*stards are really courting death. I’ve already informed the Punishment Bureau. They will bring these two here later!”

“Where did they go?” Mo Ning asked, suppressing her anger.

“The two of them headed toward the sea without looking back,” the middle-aged man hurriedly said, “F*ck! They must have run away!”

“I even sent people from the Mo family to take these two b*stards down, so don’t worry Miss Mo!”

Mo Ning hesitated for a few seconds before she stood up. Her clothes fluttered in the wind. “Let’s go. Take me to the sea!”

In Mo Ning’s opinion, Ye Chen had no reason to stand her up.

She was not going to kill him, so why should he leave?

Furthermore, the direction they had gone off to was the sea, rather than the city entrance. This was too strange.

The middle-aged man was a little surprised, but since the young miss had spoken, he could not say anything and simply nodded.

At the same time, Xiang Yingjie and the others had already arrived at the “crime” scene.

Xiang Yingjie had thought of countless possibilities, but he had never imagined the scene before his eyes.

It was not an exaggeration to describe it as shocking. After all, one of his men had been split in half!

Who could have been so cruel and ruthless?

This was a challenge to the entire Punishment Bureau and Xiang Yingjie!

Xiang Yingjie ran his finger over a sword scar on the ground.

There were traces of flames burning in the surroundings, and these flames were not ordinary.

These were all clues.

At this moment, an armored subordinate rushed over. “Lord Xiang, there are traces of lightning striking one of the corpses. The other party might have cultivated a lightning attribute cultivation technique.”

“I also asked around. At that time, someone seemed to have heard the sound of a dragon’s roar.”

Xiang Yingjie nodded and stood up, his hands behind his back as he stared at the two halves of the corpse.

“Fire, Lightning, Dragon, Sword, and someone who can kill origin king realm experts. There can’t be many people who meet these five conditions, but I don’t seem to know anyone like that in Seaside City…”

Suddenly, the subordinate thought of something, and his expression turned to one of horror.

“Milord, could it be that…”

“Who?” asked Xiang Yingjie curiously, “Do you have someone in mind?”

“Ye… Shitian…”

The subordinate trembled as he said this.

After he heard this, the brutal aura on Xiang Yingjie’s body erupted with a loud bang!

“Ye Shitian! Good! Very good! You actually dared to come to Seaside City! You’re famous, I’ll give you that, but let’s see if you can withstand one of my punches!”

His cold voice seemed to resound through the sky.

The subordinate was in a terrible state. He thought of something and quickly said, “Sir, there’s one more thing. Just now, the Mo family notified the Punishment Bureau and asked us to arrest someone. That person is Ye Chen, whom we met this morning. I heard that guy went toward the sea.”

“You mean that little brat?” Xiang Yingjie retracted his killing intent and sneered.

“That’s right!”

Xiang Yingjie unsheathed his broadsword in his hand and carried it on his shoulder.

“I gave that kid a chance, but he didn’t cherish it. He offended the Xu family this morning, and now he even dared to offend the Mo family. Since that’s the case, I’ll personally erase him!”

…

At this moment, Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian had already reached the shore.

“Hall Master, according to the memories my father transmitted to me, when he disappeared for three days, he went to the bottom of this part of the sea,” Ye Lingtian said.

Ye Chen’s fingers formed a seal, and two barriers enveloped Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian.

“Let’s go. It’s time to see what your father left for you.”

With two splashes, they entered the sea.

It took them a full ten minutes to reach the bottom of the sea. Thanks to Ye Chen’s seal technique, they were able to travel underwater without any hindrance, and could even breathe underwater.

Led by Ye Lingtian, they soon found a cave at the bottom of the sea. After some hesitation, they chose to enter. However, Ye Chen was on high alert. He held the Dragonslayer Heaven Sword tightly in his hand.

Even though Ye Lingtian’s father would not harm them, this place still made him feel uneasy.

Fortunately, the darkness disappeared after entering the cave. There was actually a flash of light in the cave, which made everything clear.

Ye Chen looked around and realized that it was a man-made cultivation space. Judging from the traces, it should have been created in recent years.

It seemed like Ye Lingtian’s father had been preparing for this eventuality for some time.

“Hall Master, over here,” Ye Lingtian said hurriedly.

Ye Chen followed the voice and soon saw an ancient-looking box standing upright. Given how long the box was, it was likely that it contained the spear that everyone was looking for,

There was also a very small stone box next to the ancient box. It was so small that it seemed almost insignificant.

“Lingtian, these things were left behind by your father. Open them and take a look! This place is under the sea, so there shouldn’t be any strange phenomena that will alarm others,” Ye Chen said.

Ye Lingtian nodded and reached out to open the box.

When a corner of the box was opened, endless black aura surged out…

Demonic energy!

When the box was completely opened, Ye Chen finally caught a good glimpse of the spear.

The spear was two meters long, and its entire body emitted a black aura. Scattered specks of starlight could be seen on its pitch-black surface. The killing intent it exuded was oppressive, and the draconic patterns carved on it looked quite lifelike.

The spearhead was flashing with a dark blue light and looked extremely sharp.

Although Ye Chen did not know what this eerie blue light was, two words appeared in his mind…

Nine Nether!

Suddenly, the spear began to shake, and the seabed began to tremble.

The spear seemed to have its own spirit as it instantly rushed out of the ancient box and rushed toward Ye Chen!

Ye Lingtian’s expression changed drastically. If this spear killed the Hall Master, he would be the culprit!

He exclaimed, “Hall Master, dodge!”

However, he noticed that Ye Chen was not moving at all. Furthermore, it did not seem like he intended to do anything at all.

The spear circled around Ye Chen’s body several times, but in the end turned and headed straight for Ye Chen’s forehead.

Ye Lingtian’s breathing quickened.

Even if he wanted to stop the spear, it was too late!

Despite seeing that the spear was about to pierce his forehead, Ye Chen did not even blink and remained as still as a mountain.

Suddenly, the spear stopped in midair!

At this moment, Ye Chen’s forehead flickered with a black light, and it was as if the eye of hell had opened!

Then, the violent spear bent and twisted itself around Ye Chen. However, its spearhead was still pointed at Ye Chen. It felt as if it was scrutinizing Ye Chen!
