Chapter 898: Chapter 897 [You’re weak, he’s even tougher, you must be strong]

"Don’t think too much about it. The villagers of Desolate Stone Village think of you as their great benefactor, regard you as family. It is only natural to share life and death with family." Tianshuang comforted Ye Tianchen.

"But I have the responsibility to protect my family, to protect you." Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

The night was cool as water. Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang sat at the entrance of the skylight, gazing up at the stars. Both had words they wanted to say but hesitated to speak. After all, Desolate Stone Village had just survived a calamity. Although not a single villager perished, it served as a heavy wake-up call for Ye Tianchen. The Blood Killing Organization and the Nine Netherworld are two major evil legacies, terrifyingly powerful, tracing back to ancient, even ancient times, with unimaginable depths, making it easy to infer their immense heritage and continuous legacy.

"By the way, how did you know someone would attack Desolate Stone Village?" Ye Tianchen glanced at Tianshuang and asked.

"Hehe, did you forget? I am a Divination Master, capable of knowing things before they’re foretold." Tianshuang said with a beautiful smile.

"I forgot, indeed. It seems I’ve been truly frightened by the Blood Killing Organization and the Nine Netherworld." Ye Tianchen said self-deprecatingly.

"Is that so? I think you weren’t scared by these two great legacies. Rather, what you’ve done has stirred the entire Ancient Martial World, not only in the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World but also in the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World and the Penglai Ancient Martial World, historically known as Immortal Island. The resurgence of the Blood Killing Organization is shocking and terrifying, but you single-handedly wiped out the Blood Killing Organization’s base in the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World, which left people sweating coldly in shock. The Blood Killing Organization’s legacy is tremendously powerful and deep, rarely provoked by a Martial Artist, yet you single-handedly destroyed its base, becoming one of the foremost figures opposing the Blood Killing Organization." Tianshuang couldn’t help but say.

"Did you foresee this happening?" Ye Tianchen was startled. It seemed the power of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect was not just boastful. The ability of a Divination Master is often sought after and needed by countless Martial Artists, yet it is also the most easily threatened and exploited.

"The later events were foretold by me. The major calamity for Desolate Stone Village was predicted by Ruotong." Tianshuang looked at Ye Tianchen and said.

"Ruotong? She truly has a talent for divination. It’s surprising that in such a short time, she can divinate by herself!" Ye Tianchen said with delight.

"Then what are you planning to do with her?" Tianshuang asked.

"What do you mean?" Ye Tianchen was a bit stunned and said somewhat confusedly.

"Are you pretending to be oblivious or lacking emotional intelligence? Don’t you know Ruotong’s feelings for you? She’s willing to give up her life for you. During your absence, she diligently practiced the Divination Skill every day, divining your situation every day, fearing for your safety. Do you want her to continue waiting like this?" Tianshuang seriously looked at Ye Tianchen and asked.

Ye Tianchen sighed. While in the Mortal World, before leaving Capital City for the Ancient Martial World again, he brought together Ling Yuxun, Su Feifei, Li Xiaoqing, and Liu Rumei for a meal, clarifying his intentions. Even if it hurt them at that moment and made them hate him, Ye Tianchen preferred not causing greater harm later, delaying their happiness. This is what a responsible man should do. Finding any excuse not to explain oneself is to waste someone else’s time, showing irresponsibility and a desire to toy with others’ feelings. Ye Tianchen is not that kind of person.

"I know Ruotong’s feelings for me, but I’ve always seen her as a sister. I promised her grandfather to take care of Ruotong for a lifetime, and I will keep my promise. I will find an opportunity to explain everything to her!" Ye Tianchen sighed and said.

"You don’t need to explain to me. I understand it all. I won’t have unrealizable hopes any longer..." Suddenly, Zhang Ruotong’s voice came out of nowhere, leaving Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang in disbelief. As they turned to look, Zhang Ruotong had already leapt down from the high ground, running away in tears.

Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang truly didn’t know when Zhang Ruotong had appeared behind them. Obviously, Ye Tianchen’s words had already been heard by Zhang Ruotong, breaking her heart, leaving Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang momentarily at a loss.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry and catch up with her, explain everything clearly to her." Tianshuang looked at Ye Tianchen anxiously and said.

Ye Tianchen shook his head, smiling bitterly, and said, "There’s no need, explanations are useless. What needs to be said must be said eventually. I think she will figure it out. Anything I say to her now, she won’t listen to."

Tianshuang paused, saying nothing further because Ye Tianchen was right. Since he had no romantic feelings for Zhang Ruotong, he ought to clarify things early, not letting her hold any false hopes, not letting her fall too deeply. When it becomes impossible for her to extricate herself, and he says such things, that would be a blow Zhang Ruotong couldn’t bear.

"Actually, I know their feelings for me, but right now, I really don’t have the time to think about affairs of the heart, nor do I want anyone to take such risks with me. It’s too dangerous. In my heart, having friends and family alive, accompanying me, being able to see them anytime, is the greatest happiness," Ye Tianchen said with a slight smile.

"Such happiness may seem to ask for very little, and the requirements aren’t high, but in this world where the strong prey on the weak, where there is no Eternal Life, everyone will eventually pass away. It’s tougher than cultivating to the Peak Realm of Martial Arts," Tianshuang sighed and said.

"No matter what, you have to try and fight. Waiting for death isn’t my style," Ye Tianchen said with determination in his eyes.

Tianshuang stood up, took a deep breath, and said to Ye Tianchen, who was still sitting on the stone slab, "You don’t need to worry too much. I’ve already learned about Dongfang Meng. When I came here, I divined, and she is indeed in danger, but at least for now, her life is not threatened."

"I suspect she was captured by people from the Blood Killing Organization," Ye Tianchen thought and said.

"That’s even better. As long as you’re not in danger, Dongfang Meng won’t be in life-threatening situations. The people from the Blood Killing Organization want revenge. You’ve got the Yijin Jing cultivation treasure and three out of the ten Ancient Divine Swords, plus the mysterious Supreme Treasure Holy Heaven Prison. These things have already spread across the three Ancient Martial Worlds, making you a target for many evil ones who want your possessions," Tianshuang analyzed and said.

"Hmph, if they have the ability, they can try to get it, but I will absolutely not sit and wait for death. Any enemy who dares to harm me and those around me, no matter who they are, I will retaliate one by one!" Ye Tianchen said coldly.

Ye Tianchen was indeed worried about Dongfang Meng’s safety. She was being hunted by three powerful martial artists and was severely injured. There was no telling what her condition was. However, since these people’s target was Ye Tianchen, as long as Dongfang Meng wasn’t dead, they would eventually use her to threaten him. Even if he went searching everywhere, he might not find her, so it was better to wait for the enemy’s information to come to him.

In the previous battle, Ye Tianchen single-handedly eradicated a temporary base of the Blood Killing Organization. Among them were three young assassins being trained by the organization and two veteran assassins, but none could withstand Ye Tianchen’s might, being shockingly killed and turned to blood mist. This caused a stir throughout the entire Ancient Martial World. The three Ancient Martial Worlds were all shaken; it had been at least thousands of years since such a thing had happened. Ye Tianchen became famous, but it also brought numerous crises and threats to him. Many young geniuses wanted to challenge him, and the matter of him possessing the Yijin Jing cultivation treasure, three Ancient Divine Swords, and the mysterious boundless Supreme Treasure Holy Heaven Prison quickly spread through the three Ancient Martial Worlds. These items tempted countless people, and quite a few of the older generation’s reclusive experts were reported to have emerged, all aiming to intercept and seize these treasures from Ye Tianchen.

Of course, some martial artists were more shocked about who Ye Tianchen really was? Which sect did he belong to? He obtained the Yijin Jing inheritance—was he a disciple of the Buddhist Sect? But there were no such indications. Only in his twenties, Ye Tianchen’s combat power was immense and unfathomable, with extraordinary courage, decisive in killing—attributes that amazed and earned him the admiration of many.

BOOM!

Three days later, a huge uproar erupted in the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World, accompanied by a demonic voice shouting in anger, "Ye Tianchen, if you don’t arrive at Flame Valley by sunset, Dongfang Meng will be utterly annihilated."

On that day, Ye Tianchen issued a strong response, mixing his voice with supreme divine skills and powerful Martial Arts True Power, resonating throughout the entire Song Mountain Ancient Martial World. His response was, "If you’ve got the guts, come at me! Bring whatever tricks you have. By sunset, I, Ye Tianchen, will definitely meet you head-on."

The people who had kidnapped Dongfang Meng revealed themselves, demanding that Ye Tianchen reach Flame Valley by sunset, or Dongfang Meng would perish without a trace. Ye Tianchen chose not to stay low-key, nor to endure silently, but instead issued a strong response. This was his attitude. To those who wanted to kill him, to those who wanted to seize his treasures, Ye Tianchen would not back down. These people wanted to kill him; they wouldn’t relent even at the ends of the earth. Why hide or retreat when you can counter fiercely? Only by striking hard until they dare not offend again can he bring safety to himself and those around him. (To be continued.
