Chapter 2429: Chapter 2418: Forcing Their Way In
Ye Chenfeng couldn’t be bothered with that much right now.
Making sure Bai Xiaorou was safe was what mattered most at this moment.
He asked, "What kind of ancient map did Wind Sword Palace see?"
The map that the Sword Hanging Villa’s old ancestor had risked his life to snatch back back then had always been kept on Zhao Jinpeng’s person.
Zhao Jinpeng directly handed the map to Ye Chenfeng.
After seeing the map.
Ye Chenfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Previously, Ye Chenfeng had obtained a map in the Medicine Saint Hall.
That map was about the legendary Holy Fire Abyss.
However, only by gathering all four maps could one know the precise location of the Holy Fire Abyss. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Later, he had obtained another map from the old ancestor of the Zhengqi Sect.
The map obtained from the Zhengqi Sect’s old ancestor could be pieced together with the one from the Medicine Saint Hall.
Now, seeing the map Zhao Jinpeng passed over, he immediately took out the two maps he had gotten before, and discovered this map could also be joined with them. In other words, with only the last map missing, the set would be completely complete, and he would be able to know the exact location of the Holy Fire Abyss.
Most importantly, Ye Chenfeng now knew there was still one map in the hands of Wind Sword Palace. It seemed that whether he wanted to rescue Bai Xiaorou or obtain the last map in Wind Sword Palace’s old ancestor’s possession, he would have to clash with Wind Sword Palace.
The old ancestor of Wind Sword Palace was very likely to have already guessed the origin of these maps, so he wanted to kill and silence witnesses, so that Sword Hanging Villa wouldn’t leak any information.
The two maps in Sword Hanging Villa’s hands had been obtained by sheer coincidence.
They just hadn’t expected that two tiny maps would bring a calamity of extermination down on Sword Hanging Villa.
Ye Chenfeng looked at Ning Long and Ning Yu, and said, "How about giving me this map? You can name your terms, I’m willing to trade with you."
Ning Long glared at Ye Chenfeng and said, "My sister’s and my lives were saved by Grandpa Zhao and Sister Xiaorou. I’ve already given this map to Grandpa Zhao."
Ever since meeting Bai Xiaorou, Ning Long had always had a bit of a crush on her. After learning that Ye Chenfeng was the person Bai Xiaorou was looking for, he naturally felt repelled toward Ye Chenfeng.
Ning Yu puffed up her cheeks and stood by her brother’s side. "The guy Sister Xiaorou likes isn’t all that great either! He’s not much better than my brother."
"Hey, what level is your strength at? Why can’t I sense your cultivation at all? Don’t tell me you’ve also reached the Heavenly God Realm?"
Ning Yu was also a straightforward woman.
Ye Chenfeng wasn’t going to fuss with this pair of siblings. Since the map had been given to Zhao Jinpeng, he didn’t say anything more. At worst, he’d properly compensate this pair of siblings later.
He put the three maps away again.
Ye Chenfeng had Zhao Jinpeng lead the way, and their group rushed toward Wind Sword Palace at high speed.
There wasn’t much distance between this place and Wind Sword Palace.
After traveling through the air for six hours.
Ye Chenfeng, Zhao Jinpeng, Ning Long, and Ning Yu arrived at the foot of the mountain where Wind Sword Palace was located.
There was no time to draw up any plan now; every second they delayed rescuing Bai Xiaorou was another second of danger for her.
At the foot of the mountain, three Wind Sword Palace people at the fifth level of the Heavenly God Realm were standing guard.
Seeing Ye Chenfeng and the others trying to head straight up toward Wind Sword Palace, the three of them immediately blocked Ye Chenfeng and the others’ path.
The aura of the fifth level of the Heavenly God Realm on their bodies surged instantly, and they coldly shouted, "Those who trespass into Wind Sword Palace—die!"
"Whose invitation did you receive to come to Wind Sword Palace? Do you have an invitation from our Wind Sword Palace on you?"
Ye Chenfeng completely ignored the guards’ icy voices. He kept walking forward step by step, with Zhao Jinpeng close at his side, while Ning Long and Ning Yu followed behind the two of them.
Ye Chenfeng glanced at Zhao Jinpeng.
Zhao Jinpeng, whose strength was at the Late Stage of the Divine King Realm, immediately made a move against the three guards.
His methods were extremely ruthless and swift.
It only took a few brief moments.
The three Wind Sword Palace guards at the foot of the mountain were already lying motionless on the ground.
Ye Chenfeng and Zhao Jinpeng continued to rapidly dash toward Wind Sword Palace at the mountaintop.
When they reached mid-mountain.
They saw two figures walking through the air from the mountaintop.
Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng and the others halfway up the mountain, the two figures paused slightly.
Among these two figures, one old man was the one who had been comprehending Sword Intent in Sword Valley earlier; his strength was at the Peak of the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm.
Back when Ye Chenfeng killed Jiang Baiyao and Jiang Li, all those cultivators scattered and fled. This old man at the Peak of the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm had some ties to Wind Sword Palace, so he immediately rushed over to Wind Sword Palace to tip them off. After all, Jiang Baiyao and Jiang Li’s old ancestor was an Early Divine Venerate Realm expert and was likewise an old ancestor of Wind Sword Palace.
The black‑robed old man standing next to him was Jiang Baiyao and Jiang Li’s old ancestor, Jiang Anxiong.
The old man at the Peak of the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm pointed at Ye Chenfeng and said, "Senior, it’s this brat, he’s the one who killed Jiang Baiyao and Jiang Li."
After hearing the old man’s words, Jiang Anxiong landed on the ground, his gaze locking onto Ye Chenfeng.
The aura of an Early Divine Venerate Realm expert spread out from his body. His line had never had many people to begin with; after learning that Jiang Baiyao and Jiang Li were dead, how could he not be furious?
As Jiang Anxiong’s Early Divine Venerate Realm aura pressed down layer upon layer, Zhao Jinpeng’s face instantly grew unsightly, while Ning Long and Ning Yu were in even worse shape. The two of them only felt a sweetness rise in their throats, and thin threads of blood seeped from the corners of their mouths.
Only Ye Chenfeng could barely remain unaffected.
Jiang Anxiong stared fixedly at Ye Chenfeng. "Never thought you’d come deliver yourself to my door; saves this old man the time of hunting you down. You actually dared to kill my Jiang Anxiong’s descendants—I’d like to see just how capable you are."
The old man who had come to tip off Jiang Anxiong said coldly, "Brat, with your mere Mid Divine King Realm strength, you dare to go up against Wind Sword Palace? You think that with Divine King Realm strength you can run rampant as you please? How laughably naive."
Ning Long and Ning Yu, standing behind Zhao Jinpeng, both revealed looks of shock in their eyes when they heard that Ye Chenfeng’s strength was actually at the Mid Divine King Realm. They hadn’t expected that someone who looked so young would already have strength at the Mid Divine King Realm.
But shock was shock.
They had long since anticipated the consequences of coming to Wind Sword Palace.
They just hadn’t expected that Ye Chenfeng had also offended one of Wind Sword Palace’s old ancestors. free𝑤ebnovel.com
The other party was an Early Divine Venerate Realm expert.
Even with Mid Divine King Realm strength, Ye Chenfeng was basically helpless in the face of that.
Even adding in Zhao Jinpeng at the Late Stage of the Divine King Realm, they probably still wouldn’t be a match for Jiang Anxiong.
Ning Long mustered his courage and shouted, "We’re here to negotiate with another old ancestor of your Wind Sword Palace. We’ve got something in our hands that he wants, so I advise you not to make a move against us just yet."
