Chapter 860: Who Are You?
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why are you here?”
Ye Chen looked at Luo Yao questioningly.
Luo Yao turned around and blinked at Ye Chen. She said softly, “Mr. Ye, have you forgotten about our agreement?”
“You promised me that you would follow me to the Core Tower after the Kunlun Mountains’ genius competition, remember?”
Ye Chen finally understood what was going on.
After Luo Yao had helped him out in the Land of Slaughter back then, he casually agreed to her request. It seemed that this girl took this matter rather seriously.
“Mr. Ye, you won’t go back on your word, right?” Luo Yao probed him with a question.
Ye Chen shook his head.
“Since I’ve agreed, I won’t go back on my word. However, this matter is between me and Mr. Jingshui. If you drag the Luo family into this, will you…”
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Yao’s lips curled into a devilish smile. “Mr. Ye, Mr. Jingshui may have a lot of connections in the Kunlun Mountains, but he doesn’t have the right to mess with the Luo family and the Core Tower.”
“Since Mr. Ye and I have an agreement, no one can take your life!”
“Thanks.” Ye Chen thanked her.
Luo Yao shook her head and said confidently, “Mr. Ye, I’m sure that even if I didn’t come, it wouldn’t be so easy for Mr. Jingshui to kill you, right?”
“In any case, Mr. Ye, you should recuperate first. Leave the rest to me.”
Ye Chen nodded and did not say anything else.
Had it not been for the fact that his body was far stronger than an ordinary cultivator, that earlier blow would have killed him, and not just injured him.
Furthermore, he did not have much true qi left in his dantian, so it was difficult for him to put up a proper fight.
For now, he would observe what Luo Yao could do.
Luo Yao turned her head and her smile disappeared. She stared at the furious Mr. Jingshui in the distance.
“I didn’t expect the famous Mr. Jingshui to attack a junior like this. You’ve really disgraced your status as a respected expert.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd instantly became restless.
What was going on today?
It was one thing for that lunatic Ye Chen to contradict Mr. Jingshui, but now there was actually a woman who dared to do the same?
Those who dared to say such things about Mr. Jingshui would all end up dead!
Mr. Jingshui narrowed his eyes. He felt that the ancient cauldron looked familiar, but he could not place it. He snapped at Luo Yao, “Who are you? Do you know whose territory this is?”
“This is Qjanjue Plaza, the place where the geniuses of the Kunlun Mountains compete! And the young man behind you broke the rules and killed innocent people! I’m just meting out justice for the heavens! I advise you to move aside. Someone with your cultivation level might not even be able to withstand one of my attacks!”
Mister Jingshui pointed his green sword at Luo Yao, his killing intent intensifying.
This incident was being watched by countless people. If it was not handled correctly, what would happen to his reputation?
Luo Yao stepped forward, a purple aura surrounding her. “What if I insist on protecting him?”
“Then I’ll send you on your way!”
Mr. Jingshui’s figure instantly turned into a blur as he moved.
The burning pain on his cheek from Ye Chen’s slap was humiliating!
No matter what, Ye Chen had to die!
Since this little girl did not know what was good for her, he would kill her as well!
The wind roared in his wake.
Mr. Jingshui’s killing intent was like a giant beast, mercilessly bearing down on Luo Yao.
However, Luo Yao simply stood still and stared at him with interest, completely unbothered.
Then, just as Mr. Jingshui’s green sword tore through the air and descended, the old man beside Luo Yao took action. His hand grabbed the ancient cauldron, and then he spun like a spinning top.
Then, he slammed his palms onto it and sent it flying toward the incoming green sword.
Ding!
Sparks flew in all directions, and shockwaves rippled out.
A few cultivators who were close by were sent flying!
When the others turned to look, the cauldron and the green sword were still in a stalemate. They were evenly matched!.
Mr. Jingshui’s cold smile stiffened.
His heart was in turmoil as he stared at the old man in front of him.
Who was this old man? Why was he so powerful? This fellow was just as powerful as he was.
Furthermore, it was obvious that this old man was just a bodyguard.
“Stop it. If my young miss becomes unhappy, the consequences will be very serious,” the old man spoke softly as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary matter.
“Who exactly are you?”
Mr. Jingshui exerted more strength and shouted angrily.
“lam just a free spirit. This time, I only came along to protect the young miss from any harm. The young miss has disappeared for so many years, but has finally returned home…” the old man continued languidly.
“What nonsense are you spouting? Today, I will break your ancient cauldron!”
Mr. Jingshui tapped his toes lightly and stepped on the ancient cauldron. Then, he flicked his wrist and a bloodthirsty cold gleam shot out.
It was too fast!
The old man shook his head and formed a seal with his finger. After which, he pointed at the ancient cauldron.
In an instant, streams of sword qi shot out from the opening of the ancient cauldron like fireworks, and shot toward Mr. Jingshui.
Seeing this, Mr. Jingshui’s eyes narrowed.
This power, this ancient cauldron, could it be?
The Core Tower!
Could it be that this old man came from the Core Tower?
Bang!
In a flash, the two forces collided, and the sky suddenly turned dark and colorless.
Waves of energy exploded like bombs, and a huge pit appeared on the ground where the two of them were. The arena stage had completely disintegrated!
The onlookers quickly retreated. They thought that Mr. Jingshui would emerge victorious, but now it seemed that this old man who had suddenly appeared was not to be underestimated!
Rumble!
Even Qjanjue Plaza’s formation began to crack and collapse.
“Why won’t you listen? Your status is not ordinary, but my family’s young miss is the same! I hope that this matter will end here,” the old man said.
His tone was not one of discussion, but one of command!
Then, Mr. Jingshui and the old man separated.
The old man placed the ancient cauldron firmly on the ground and returned to Luo Yao’s side.
Luo Yao, on the other hand, turned her head proudly and said to Ye Chen, “Mr. Ye, nowyou know the power behind me. It’s not too late to join me.”
In Luo Yao’s eyes, although Ye Chen’s martial arts talent was not bad, compared to his alchemy skills, the gap was too big!
Ye Chen should be immersed in alchemy!
