The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor

Chapter 2009: Chapter 2006: Escaped

"I borrowed it through my own efforts, why should I return it?"

Ye Xuan’s straightforward words left the girl in the red dress speechless.

"No, the Divine Mountain Seal is not loaned to you."

The girl in the red dress said coldly.

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "If you don’t loan it to me, can I leave?"

The girl in the red dress showed a trace of panic but quickly regained her composure and firmly said, "No loan!"

Ye Xuan revealed a mischievous smile, "Really not loaning?"

The girl in the red dress refused to look at Ye Xuan and resolutely said, "Not loaning."

Ye Xuan restrained his smile and said indifferently, "If that’s the case, then I’m leaving."

The girl in the red dress secretly glanced, only to find that Ye Xuan hadn’t left but was looking at her.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, the girl knew she couldn’t outmatch Ye Xuan and had to give in, but still pretended to be firm and said, "Then you tell me, for how long do you want to borrow it?"

Ye Xuan raised his fingers and thought deeply, "That depends on how long you need me to stay here."

The girl in the red dress was filled with suspicion, "You really plan to accompany me here?"

Ye Xuan nodded, "Of course."

The girl reluctantly agreed, "Alright, I’ll lend it to you temporarily."

Hua Gu thought, since Ye Xuan is here to accompany her anyway, lending the Divine Mountain Seal isn’t a big deal.

Seeing the girl agree, Ye Xuan sighed inwardly.

If it were the old Hua Gu, she definitely wouldn’t have agreed.

But now, he hadn’t even begun to exert himself, and Hua Gu agreed to lend it to him.

You know, that’s the Divine Mountain Seal.

One of the most terrifying artifacts in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

Hua Gu easily lent it to him...

Her temperament seems to have completely transformed into that of a young girl.

Ye Xuan’s eyes deepened, remaining silent.

"What’s wrong? I’ve agreed to lend it to you, what else do you want?"

The girl in the red dress asked, growing alert as Ye Xuan remained silent.

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly, "It’s nothing, I’m just here to accompany you."

The girl finally broke into a happy smile.

The two of them together approached the location of the Divine Mountain Seal.

The Divine Mountain Seal looked like an ordinary black rock.

But the "Mountain" character on it grew more terrifying the longer you looked at it.

Ye Xuan stared at the "Mountain" character and felt the black rock transform into an endless black mountain, suppressing All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, existing eternally.

The terrifying pressure made one feel as insignificant as an ant.

Even Ye Xuan felt this way.

This is the Divine Mountain Seal.

Terrifying beyond compare.

If an ordinary person were to be caught in it, they would be crushed to death.

But Ye Xuan isn’t ordinary; he forcefully withdrew from that dreadful sense of crisis and focused his gaze on the white light orb wrapped in chains.

The white light orb continued to struggle furiously, seemingly enduring immense pain.

The suppression from the Divine Mountain Seal constantly weighed down on the white light orb.

Ye Xuan gazed at the white light orb and could see within it an elderly man with a white mane struggling helplessly on the ground.

Though he continually tried to stand, he couldn’t succeed, and with time, the suppression grew harsher, nearly pinning him to the ground.

This was the so-called Immortal.

Also one of the lingering traces left by Dou Tian Divine Domain in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

Just like the Yang Demon.

Unfortunately, this guy offended Hua Gu.

Ultimately, he could only be suppressed.

As if sensing Ye Xuan and Hua Gu observing him from outside, the elderly man with the white mane struggled to lift his head and exchanged glances with Ye Xuan and Hua Gu through the endless Void.

Even though he was greatly suppressed, his wild and unyielding gaze bore a hint of sarcasm, as if mocking Ye Xuan and Hua Gu for only being able to achieve this much.

Seeing this, Hua Gu became enraged, shouting, "You old man, you never learn, believe it or not, I’ll kill you!"

The elderly man with the white mane opened his mouth but no sound emerged.

However, from his lip movements, he said two words:

Don’t believe!

Hua Gu instantly became furious, preparing to deal with the oblivious old man.

Ye Xuan stepped in, stopping Hua Gu, "Let me handle him."

The girl in the red dress huffed slightly, "I’m giving Emperor Ye face by sparing your life."

She then turned to Ye Xuan, urging him, "Emperor Ye, give this guy a good beating; he’s too annoying."

Ye Xuan nodded slightly, "Alright."

He then reached out to touch the "Mountain" character on the Divine Mountain Seal.

Boom!

In an instant, the Divine Mountain Seal trembled.

Then, with a flash of Mysterious Light, it vanished.

Leaving only a massive gap.

The girl in the red dress stared blankly at the scene, stiffly turning to Ye Xuan, "Where’s the Divine Mountain Seal?"

Ye Xuan frowned, "Seems like... it ran away?"

The girl in the red dress immediately flew into a frenzy, "Emperor Ye!!"

Ye Xuan shrugged, looking helpless, "It’s not my fault; I didn’t do anything."

The girl in the red dress grabbed Ye Xuan’s collar, fiercely demanding, "I don’t care, you must compensate for the Divine Mountain Seal, or else..."

Ye Xuan casually replied, "What if I can’t compensate?"

The girl met Ye Xuan’s deep black eyes and suddenly felt a panic, releasing him, "Anyway, I don’t care; you figure it out."

Ye Xuan felt a heavy mood while watching this unfold.

The Divine Mountain Seal ran away?

Of course not.

It was actually shifted to the location of his true self using a technique.

The claim that the Divine Mountain Seal ran was to deceive Hua Gu.

Hua Gu believed it...

And didn’t get angry.

The change in her demeanor deepened Ye Xuan’s mood further.

"How about this, I can’t compensate for the Divine Mountain Seal, but until it’s found, I will stay with you here, how about that?"

Ye Xuan spoke softly.

The girl in the red dress blinked, "Really?"

Ye Xuan nodded.

The girl was initially joyful, then with a disdainful expression said, "Who needs your company? Are you as valuable as the Divine Mountain Seal?"

Ye Xuan chuckled, "Then what do you suggest?"

The girl looked Ye Xuan up and down, pouted, "Fine, seeing as you likely can’t retrieve the Divine Mountain Seal, I’ll begrudgingly let you accompany me here."

"Just know, you can’t run away halfway, or the next time I see you, I’ll surely kill you!"

Her tone hardened, rendering her innocent eyes filled with overwhelming hostility.

Ye Xuan wasn’t surprised by this change.

Because this is the real Hua Gu.

The one who trapped him here for countless years.

Ye Xuan laughed happily.

"Deal!"

"If I run away, you must kill me!"

Ye Xuan said with a smile.

Hua Gu grinned happily.
