Chapter 157: Chapter 157- The Mysterious Black Tablet Of The Zhang Clan (2)

’Amon, do you know what this item this person is talking about?’ Yang Chen turned towards the know it all demon.

"A Black Tablet.. It’s too vague. I cannot say anything without seeing the item first" Amon responded.

Nodding his head, Yang Chen turned towards the elder from the Zhang clan, the battle energy of a five star battle master crackling at his hand.

"Hmph, how can I believe that you have such an item that you claim? I told you before not to waste my time didn’t i? Since you want to die that badly, I will make it so that even your soul feel the pain".

Hearing the young man’s words and the surge of battle energy being released, all colours drained from Zhang Fei’s face as he hurriedly spoke up.

"I-I-I’m speaking the truth, young master please believe me. There really is an item called the Black tablet in our clan which our first elder fought to get his hands on even to the pont of injuring himself".

Yang chen’s hand that was about to grab Zhang Fei’s head stopped, a look of realisation dawned on the former’s face.

The latter was asserting that an item like the Black Tablet really existed and that their First Elder fought with his life on the line to get his hands on the item.

Yang Chen for a fact knew that the last bit of Zhang Fei’s words were true after all, he had seen the grave injuries of the First Elder when he intruded their clan. So it cannot be false, on the contrary it made more sense.

Even though he was just pretending to be an Alchemist, Yang Chen did inspect the body of the first elder of the Zhang clan and after seeing the injuries the man suffered, he could somewhat tell that it was from a fight.

Those wounds appeared from a fight against humans and not from a demonic beast. As such, the claims made by Zhang Fei made more sense if it was for the item that their first elder got injured.

"Let’s say you have it. But isn’t it a precious item of your clan. I wonder if it can be handed out to an outsider this easily" Yang Chen grinned folding his hands behind his back so that Zhang Fei could not see it.

"That... is not a problem. Our clan doesn’t know its use either so if young master saves my life, I believe that our clan leader would have no problem giving it out to you. I am the fourth elder of the Zhang clan after all, my life is still more impotant" Zhang Fei spoke with a tinge of trepidation.

Of course, it was not okay to hand an item that was cherished by their clan and their first elder put his life on the line to bring. Even if Zhang Fei was the fourth elder, he did not have the authority to hand out such an item.

What’s more, this item was in their clan leader’s hand who was trying to figure out its mystery. And even if he can’t they needed to keep it with them because the first elder told them to keep it safe and give it to the person who will come in the future to look for it.

He also told them that their Zhang clan would reap great benefits if they gave this item to that person. As such, an important item like the black tablet cannot be given to an outsider even if that person was someone who saved the life of the fourth elder of their clan.

The only reason Zhang Fei revealed the existence of the black tablet to Yang Chen was because it was the only thing that could entice the latter into sparing him.

He had no intention of actually handing out the black tablet. On the contrary, he was scheming to use the black tablet as the bargaining chip to make the young man to do his bidding and get rid of him with the help of their clan leader and other elders after he brought him back to their clan.

Thus leaving no evidence of the existence of the black tablet.

A moment of silence hung in the air as Zhang Fei awaited Yang Chen’s response. He was sure that the latter would not reject his offer after all it was just too good of an offer to turn down.

So when he heard the intital words of Yang Chen’s reply, he was immediately delighted but then it didnlt take long for his expression to fall apart and change into that of utter despair and disbelief.

"It is quite an enticing offer. I can tell that you are speaking the truth. I know because I inspected the condition of your first elder and saw how grave his injuries were. How is he, is he still alive? There should be many others besides him who fell ill suddenly right? How is the condition of the Zhang Clan?"

Yang Chen spoke, a devilish grin hung on the corner of his lips.

[Ding... You have committed a mischief... 100 points awarded].

There it was, the sweet sweet sound of notification from the system.

"How... do you... know that?! No, who are you?" One could see the expression on Zhang Fei’s face crumbling with every second as the realisation of who the young man standing in front of him was slowly seeped into him.

"You can’t recognise me? How rude, I am the alchemist that healed your first elder. Hehe, I didn’t expect the fourth elder of all people to not be able to recognise me. Weren’t you one of the people that strongly opposed inviting me inside you clan at the clan hall? Too bad you werenlt able to stop me and look what happened as a result of that?".

[Ding.. you commited a mischief...]

"Right? Tell me how is the first elder? Did his meridians get restored? Oh wait that can’t happen after all, his meridian is completely destroyed after taking that pill. He should have lost all of his cultivation and turned into a cripple"..
