Chapter 799: Chapter 798: Hoodwinked and Unraveling the Thread
Deng Wu, the Reincarnator, slowly squeezed his figure in.
Ye Chen noticed him.
He also noticed Ye Chen.
"As expected, you’ve come in long ago, quite the plan, hiding alone inside, secretly gaining advantage."
Deng Wu shouted angrily, with a tone of anger, as they had been scheming and fighting outside while Ye Chen had already been inside for so long.
The corner of Ye Chen’s mouth lifted into a cold smile.
With a swoosh, the Celestial Mark Sword was drawn from its scabbard, carrying an unparalleled sword light.
"Buzz!"
The clanging sound of sword cries resounded, and the Infinite Star Sword Array appeared. Swords swirled and danced, shuttling back and forth, bringing forth a splendid and stunning glow.
"Ye Chen, all you can do is hide and sneak around. Unfortunately, no matter how well you hide, I have found you. There’s no one here to protect you anymore. Everything about you will end by my hand!"
Deng Wu laughed loudly, a narrow, slightly curved blade appeared in his hand. The blade was smooth, casting a faint red glow, exuding a bloodthirsty aura.
This was a Half-Sacred Artifact, and obviously extraordinary, among the best of Half-Sacred Artifacts, no weaker than the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower Ye Chen had taken from the Situ Family!
"I didn’t intend to hide sneakily. Everything here was discovered by me, and I just came in first. To be honest, I originally thought there would be some idiot barging in to die. What disappointed me is that after waiting so long, only a piece of trash like you appeared!"
A sharp glint flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes. Under his control, the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower flew out from the Storage Ring.
The exquisite nine-layered treasure tower floated above his head, casting down rays of light, forming a powerful shield. At the same time, formidable power brewed within the tower, ready to unleash its strongest assault at any moment!
Deng Wu stepped forward, instantly appearing before Ye Chen.
"Hmm?"
His brows furrowed, speaking in a shocked tone: "The Power of Reincarnation within you has disappeared... You’ve been severely injured by it twice. A typical Reincarnator definitely couldn’t heal you.
Cangzhou no longer has other Reincarnators!
How did you manage it?!"
Ye Chen chuckled coldly and said, "A mere Power of Reincarnation trying to threaten me? Stop dreaming. To tell you the truth, I am also a Reincarnator, and my status is much nobler than yours.
You worthless beings should all crawl beneath my feet and kneel before me!"
"No, you’re not a Reincarnator. If you were one, we would’ve sensed something!" Deng Wu shouted.
"You can’t sense it because you’re not qualified. If I weren’t a Reincarnator, how could I have grown so fast? Where do you think my endless supreme skills come from?" Ye Chen rebuked.
Deng Wu’s expression shifted unpredictably.
Ye Chen continued coldly, "I am the most noble existence among Reincarnators, and you are nothing but inferior trash among them. I have important matters to handle in Cangzhou, you better be wise and scram! Otherwise, if you ruin my grand plan, you’ll pay dearly!"
Deng Wu’s emotions were in turmoil.
Ye Chen’s situation was indeed too much like a Reincarnator.
Unaffected by the Power of Reincarnation, incredible growth speed, endless powerful techniques...
Could it be that Ye Chen is indeed an extremely high-tiered Reincarnator?
"Were you lurking in Cangzhou all along for the Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow of the Reincarnation Divine Envoy?" Deng Wu revealed his doubt.
Ye Chen: "..."
So, the Qi Fortune Longbow I had a while back is called the Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow?
Its owner is the so-called Reincarnation Divine Envoy?
Li Shiji was the one guarding it for the Reincarnation Divine Envoy!
"A piece of trash longbow stored with just a little Heaven-Sealing Stone couldn’t possibly catch my eye!" Ye Chen’s expression was contemptuous, his tone filled with disdain.
At this moment, Deng Wu believed even more that Ye Chen was an extremely high-tiered Reincarnator.
If Ye Chen wasn’t a Reincarnator, he couldn’t possibly know that the Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow was stored with a layer of Heaven-Sealing Stone, something Li Shiji would never reveal to anyone.
And Ye Chen’s identity piqued Deng Wu’s curiosity even more.
The Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow was regarded as an immensely powerful treasure in the eyes of many Reincarnators. Even among the Reincarnation Divine Palace’s envoys, not everyone had such a treasure!
Yet Ye Chen didn’t consider the Reincarnation Divine Bow worth his attention at all...
Noting that Deng Wu seemed to believe him somewhat, Ye Chen inwardly cursed him as a fool, then shouted again: "Tell me, who sent you to Cangzhou, and what exactly do you intend to do?"
Deng Wu: "Lin Jiao’s faction has a Reincarnation Divine Envoy. That envoy sent Lin Jiao to Cangzhou, wanting her to take the Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow..."
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered, saying, "A bunch of fools, disregarding the fundamental purpose of reincarnation, only keen on scheming and fighting for these useless things."
Having spoken, Ye Chen glanced at Deng Wu and said, "The opportunities here are of great use to me, you’d better not touch them, or don’t blame me for being impolite."
Deng Wu: "... Lin Jiao will come in later, and Shi Fengchun’s disciple Feng Wanli is about to enter as well. Join us to kill Feng Wanli, and I’ll fully believe you!"
Ye Chen: "Feng Wanli has his uses for me!"
"Feng Wanli is a Parasite. He’s just like Shi Fengchun, and now they’re opposing us, he must die!"
Ye Chen: "... So you’ve discovered that Shi Fengchun and Feng Wanli are Parasites too?"
Deng Wu said: "Lin Jiao theorized it. She suspects it’s inside Shi Fengchun, but his means are formidable, completely severing the will and power of the Parasite from within him.
The mass of power was sealed inside Feng Wanli.
And the Parasite’s will, without the support of power, is constantly suppressed by Shi Fengchun’s own will.
Lin Jiao considers this an opportunity.
Kill Feng Wanli, capture that mass of power, and reverse control over the Parasite’s will inside Shi Fengchun using that power.
The will of the Parasite within Shi Fengchun must have been of extremely high status, holding many secrets!"
Ye Chen was shocked. Is this the secret that Brother Chun had been unwilling to reveal? He stared at Deng Wu and asked, "What else did Lin Jiao hypothesize?"
Deng Wu said: "That’s all."
Ye Chen made a sound of acknowledgment.
Initially, he had intended to fool Deng Wu with casual words to seize the opportunity to strike unexpectedly.
When he realized Deng Wu truly fell for it, he took the chance to probe into the background of these Reincarnators.
In the end, he dug out Brother Chun’s deepest secrets.
Reincarnators... living another life doesn’t make everyone smart, as they lose some memories in the process.
Moreover, choosing reincarnation means they have to let go of many memories.
Most choose to retain memories related to cultivation, meaning their life experiences are not necessarily much more than that of ordinary people.
Ye Chen gazed at Deng Wu and said, "Then wait here until Feng Wanli and Lin Jiao come in. Then, we’ll join forces to kill Feng Wanli. But consider this a warning, when I retrieve the opportunities, you better not interfere, or else, don’t blame me for not being polite!"
Saying this, Ye Chen flew towards a point of light.
Suddenly, his figure flashed, sharply turning and suddenly unleashed explosive Swordsmanship, appearing beside Deng Wu in an instant, slicing down with his sword!
For now, he could deceive this fool, but when that scheming woman Lin Jiao came in, he would surely be exposed. So for now, he had to first eliminate Deng Wu, then together with Feng Wanli, take down Lin Jiao!
(Happy National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival to everyone.)
