Chapter 72 Don’t You Know?
"Yes."
The Second Prince frowned slightly upon hearing this, and then said, "The ancient site is opened once every ten years, and at least tens of thousands of people enter it each time, but in the end, less than five floors can come out alive. You can imagine how dangerous it is inside."
"In addition to the dangers inherent in ancient monuments, we should also be more wary of man-made dangers." Chen Chan spoke, and between her words, she snorted and looked in a certain direction ahead.
Sitting there was a young man in brocade clothes, who looked not much different from her, probably around 27 or 28 years old.
Ren Ziming!
A direct disciple of Lingtian Pavilion.
Ten years ago, he also participated in that ancient monument trip.
It is said that the Yuhua Sect suffered heavy casualties that year, and out of the hundred people who entered the ancient ruins, only less than twenty survived. All of this was related to Lingtian Pavilion.
"You don't need to look at me like that. What happened back then can only be blamed on your Yuhua Sect for overestimating your own capabilities."
Seeing Chen Chan looking at him, Ren Ziming smiled coldly and took a sip of the wine in the glass.
"Back then, the people of my Yuhua Sect were the first to discover that artifact. In order to snatch it, you, Lingtian Pavilion, did not hesitate to surround and kill all my fellow disciples of the Yuhua Sect. We have a blood feud, and one day, you will pay the price for it!" Chen Chan gritted her teeth. Her face looked very unhappy when she talked about what happened back then.
Because of that trip to the ancient monument, her brother also died at the hands of Lingtian Pavilion!
"I advise you to recognize your own strength. Your Yuhua Sect has long been in decline. In front of my Lingtian Pavilion, it is not worth mentioning at all. If you want revenge, I'm afraid you will never be able to do it in this lifetime." Ren Ziming was disdainful.
As he spoke, he looked Chen Chan up and down with a gleam of evil in his eyes, and then continued, "I think you are quite pretty. If you are willing to leave Yuhua Sect and follow me..."
"Ren Ziming, don't go too far!"
Before he could finish his words, some disciples of the Yuhua Sect present could no longer bear it and scolded him harshly.
"Do you have a role to speak here?"
Ren Ziming narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashed across them, and he turned to look over. He snorted coldly and said, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, you will be in trouble when we get to the ancient ruins."
"Who's afraid of who? Do you think Lingtian Pavilion is so great? Tonight I want to see your skills!"
Someone couldn't help it and immediately slammed the table and glared at Ren Ziming.
Liu Qing, this is a master ranked seventeenth on the Hidden Dragon List!
"You are not qualified to fight with me." Ren Ziming was disdainful. He glanced at the other party coldly and did not take him seriously at all.
Then he continued, "Except for Chen Chan who is barely decent enough, is there anyone else in your Yuhua Sect who is worthy of my attention?"
"Insanity!"
"Do you really think you are invincible?"
Liu Qing was furious and wanted to take action forcefully.
"Please calm down, both of you."
At this time, the second prince Yun Ding stepped forward and started to mediate, "This is the Yehuang Holy Garden, not a place for fighting. If you have any grudges, please put them aside for now."
After all, this gathering was organized by him, so he naturally didn't want to see anyone causing a big fuss over it.
"Since the Second Prince has come forward, I am too lazy to argue with you."
Ren Ziming sneered and looked at Liu Qing and the others with disdain. Then, he drank the wine in the cup and threw the cup on the table. "It's best not to meet me in the ancient ruins, otherwise..."
He didn't finish what he said, but just smiled coldly, and finally strode away.
Looking at the direction where he went away, everyone in the Yuhua Sect couldn't help but frown.
“Today’s Lingtian Pavilion dominates the entire Xuanyu and is a true overlord-level force that has surpassed the imperial power. If you really encounter them in the ancient ruins, you really have to be careful.” The second prince said.
As the Yuhua Sect is a powerful force within the Yun Kingdom, he naturally prefers the Yuhua Sect in his personal heart.
However, Lingtian Pavilion is so powerful that it is like a mountain that is difficult to shake. If they really target us, it will be a very troublesome thing.
Soon, the party continued.
Those young talents from all over Xuanyu came here tonight just to go through the motions and give face to the Second Prince.
They did not stay for too long and eventually left one after another.
There were still about twenty people left in the field, all of whom were young elites from the local forces of Yun Country.
"These guys are so arrogant. It really makes me feel uncomfortable." A young man with a sword on his waist took a big sip and said with a bit of frustration.
Huang Yuan is a genius from the Sword Sect and the sect’s eldest disciple.
As the most powerful sword-fighting sect in the Yun Kingdom, Huang Yuan, as the eldest disciple, has extraordinary sword skills and is known as the number one swordsman among the younger generation!
"There's nothing we can do. Among all the countries in Xuanyu, our Yun Country is the weakest in terms of overall strength. It's understandable that these people look down on us." Lin Feng said.
This is not an empty statement, the Xuan Realm is extremely vast, and the Yun Kingdom is just the tip of the iceberg in the entire realm.
For the real top forces like Lingtian Pavilion, within the territory of Yun Country, apart from the royal family who can make them slightly wary, sects such as the Yuhua Sect and the Jian Sect are not worth mentioning at all.
"You are all the pride of our Yun Nation. From now on, please take care of each other. I hope we will never be enemies."
The second prince raised his glass and toasted to everyone present.
Everyone toasted back and then drank together.
"It's probably difficult to never be my enemy. After all, there are people in the field who want to kill me."
After finishing the wine in the glass, Ji Chen suddenly spoke with a smile.
After saying that, he turned his gaze and looked somewhere ahead.
There, there were two young men on both sides, and it was Hua Tian. "Isn't that right? Senior Brother Hua Tian."
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Hua Tian spoke calmly, his eyes meeting Ji Chen's.
"When I was still in Yuhua Sect, you tried to kill me many times. During this trip to the ancient ruins, I'm afraid you have already done some shameful things in secret, right?" Ji Chen sneered.
Hearing this, Ji Yanran, who was not far away, frowned suddenly.
She stared at Hua Tian, "Hua Tian, is this really true?!"
"Why? Don't you know?"
Ji Chen changed the subject and looked at Ji Yanran.
"What do you mean?" Ji Yanran frowned even more.
"Ha ha……"
Ji Chen had no intention of continuing.
He just smiled coldly, stood up, and clasped his fists slightly towards the Second Prince and the others, "I drank a few more cups tonight, and now I am a little tipsy, so I won't stay any longer, goodbye."
"Brother Ji, take your time."
The second prince stood up and wanted to see him off personally.
But Ji Chen just waved at him and finally walked away alone.
"Sister Yanran, what did Ji Chen mean by that just now?"
Looking at the direction he left, Ji Xuerou also frowned, "Is someone teaming up with Hua Tian to kill Ji Chen? And why did he say that you seemed to know about it?"
Ji Yanran remained silent, and had no clue either. After a moment, she said, "I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly!"
