Chapter 2046 - 2044: Facing Off with the Golden-faced Young Master
[Seeking tips!]Qiong Hu was the number one powerhouse of the younger generation among the Qiong Qi Descendants!
Ye Tianchen actually believed that, because Qiong Hu’s Cultivation Realm was at Mid-stage Martial Saint, far higher than Qiong Mao’s. Of course, Qiong Hu’s personality was just as arrogant and domineering as Qiong Mao’s, maybe even more ruthless and vicious than Qiong Mao!
However, Ye Tianchen didn’t care in the slightest about Qiong Hu’s shouting and disdain, he didn’t even back off by half a step, because he was never someone who licked boots and fawned on others. The only reason he’d agreed to follow Princess Zi Xuan to the territory of the Qiong Qi Descendants, to be blunt, was for one thing: the "jade" hanging on Princess Zi Xuan’s chest. That piece of jade was no ordinary object, but something condensed from Immortal Origin Liquid. If there was any chance at all, Ye Tianchen would definitely snatch away that "jade" on Princess Zi Xuan’s chest. Even if that meant his hand might brush against Princess Zi Xuan’s chest, that really wasn’t something Ye Tianchen felt any need to be squeamish about!
More importantly, what truly made Ye Tianchen change his mind was the fact that the Qiong Qi Descendants had discovered a place overflowing with Immortal Origin Liquid. That meant that within the territory of the Qiong Qi Descendants, there might be other things condensed from Immortal Origin Liquid. If the opportunity arose, Ye Tianchen absolutely wouldn’t be polite—he would definitely take them away in passing!
Following Princess Zi Xuan and Qiong Hu, Ye Tianchen arrived at a corner of the Qiong Qi Descendants’ martial arena, where he saw a huge cauldron of roiling oil. This was a specially refined oil, enough to blow a powerhouse at the Martial Saint Cultivation Realm to the point that body and soul were both annihilated, nothing left but scattered ashes!
When Ye Tianchen saw the Golden-faced Young Master, he discovered that the Golden-faced Young Master had already been tortured quite badly. It was just that the Qiong Qi Descendants hadn’t actually killed him yet. From the Divine Thought Ye Tianchen sent out to probe, he found that there was a Rune binding the Golden-faced Young Master’s body, sealing all of his Martial Arts True Qi. Even if he had strength, he couldn’t unleash it. Right now he was basically no different from an ordinary mortal in the secular world. As long as any member of the Qiong Qi Descendants wanted to make a move, the Golden-faced Young Master would end up with his soul scattered and his spirit destroyed!
In truth, the Golden-faced Young Master had really been screwed over by Ye Tianchen so badly he could cry. Screwed so hard it was ridiculous. Back then, after being threatened by two members of the Qiong Qi Descendants and brought to their territory, his Martial Arts True Qi had been sealed on the spot. Actually, given the Golden-faced Young Master’s Cultivation Realm, it wasn’t like he didn’t have the strength to resist at all. It was just that he also understood very clearly that on the Qiong Qi Descendants’ turf, even if he had some strength, he wouldn’t dare fight back. He would definitely be suppressed, and might even further enrage the members of the Qiong Qi Descendants and get killed on the spot—that would be a real tragedy. So the Golden-faced Young Master could only obediently let the Qiong Qi Descendants seal him, and put all his hopes on the experts of his Golden Saber Sect arriving quickly to rescue him!
"Golden-faced Young Master, we’ve brought this Fat Taoist here now. Take a look, do you recognize this Fat Taoist?" Qiong Hu glared at the Golden-faced Young Master and questioned him.
The Golden-faced Young Master lifted his head. When he saw Ye Tianchen, his eyes held some confusion and dazedness. He couldn’t help shaking his head as he said, "I don’t know him. I have never seen this Fat Taoist before. He has never appeared in my restaurant either. He must be slandering me, slandering me, trying to frame me..."
"Heh heh, Golden-faced Young Master, of course you don’t remember me. You’re such an incredible figure, with such a lofty attitude, how could you possibly remember a Fat Taoist like me? I still remember that just a few days ago, before that so-called Ye Tianchen showed up, you got drunk again in the restaurant and smugly bragged that the Golden Saber Sect would soon become the controller of the city in East State within the Barbaric Forbidden Land. When someone didn’t believe you, you said you’d already set up a scheme that would screw the Qiong Qi Descendants to death. I still remember it clearly to this day—I heard every word loud and clear!" Ye Tianchen intentionally said with a faint, smiling tone.
"Bullshit, bullshit! I absolutely never said anything like that. Who the hell are you? How dare you try to harm me so viciously?" The Golden-faced Young Master roared in panic.
"Forget it. You can’t even admit to the words you personally said. That’s really disappointing, and you’ve completely thrown away the face of your Golden Saber Sect. Honestly, I even wanted to advise you a bit—real men should dare to do and dare to face the consequences. Since you had that kind of guts, and the Golden Saber Sect had that kind of guts, that’s actually something people could respect. But now that your scheme has failed and the Qiong Qi Descendants have found out, you should at least refuse to bow your head, right? Besides, it’s not like the Qiong Qi Descendants will let you go anyway!" Ye Tianchen shook his head in puzzlement as he spoke.
"You... you... you’re spouting venomous lies, talking nonsense! I get it now, it must be that ant, it must be Ye Tianchen. It’s him... he’s the one who wants to frame me, so he bought you off to screw me over, trying to push me into a dead end. That has to be it!" The Golden-faced Young Master finally reacted, shouting loudly at Ye Tianchen. Unfortunately, Ye Tianchen’s expression remained utterly calm. He was determined to screw over this despicable, shameless, narrow-minded Golden-faced Young Master until the guy was crying and laughing at the same time—screw him straight to death!
Hearing the Golden-faced Young Master’s words, Qiong Hu and Princess Zi Xuan both turned to look at Ye Tianchen. They weren’t idiots, but heaven’s favored children with absolutely outstanding talent. What the Golden-faced Young Master said wasn’t entirely unreasonable. It was indeed possible that he had offended Ye Tianchen and tried to secretly harm Ye Tianchen, and that in this situation Ye Tianchen had in turn hired this Fat Taoist to frame the Golden-faced Young Master. That possibility did exist. It was just that no one could have guessed, and no one had seen through, that the Fat Taoist standing right in front of them was actually Ye Tianchen’s Incarnation, created using the Bone Transformation Skill!
"No way. I’ve only met you a few times at most. I once went to your Peace Restaurant to drink, and happened to overhear your arrogant boasting. I don’t have any grudge against you. It’s just that the Qiong Qi Descendants are strong, and when they wanted me to come confront you, I didn’t dare refuse. As for that Ye Tianchen you mentioned, this is really the first time I’ve heard those three words. I don’t know him at all!" Ye Tianchen deliberately put on a very innocent look as he spoke.
"You... impossible, you must have been bribed by Ye Tianchen and are trying to frame me, you must not fall for it!" Golden-faced Young Master said, shaking all over with anxiety.
Qiong Hu gave Ye Tianchen a very displeased look, then sneered and said, "Fat Taoist, is what you said true?"
"Heh, do I have any need to lie?" Ye Tianchen stared straight at Qiong Hu and asked.
"Hmph, Fat Taoist, I think you really don’t know your place. To me, whether what you say is true or false doesn’t matter. What matters is whether I believe it. If I don’t believe you, you might just end up in that oil pot..." Qiong Hu snorted coldly and spoke with naked arrogance.
Ye Tianchen glanced at Qiong Hu, then at Princess Zi Xuan, and said with a calm smile, "I’ll be frank with you too: the fact that I came to your Qiong Qi Descendants’ territory to confront this so‑called Golden-faced Young Master doesn’t mean I fear your Qiong Qi Descendants. To be honest, your clan hasn’t yet become the number one Species in the Barbaric Forbidden Land, it’s not that exaggerated. I only came because I think Princess Zi Xuan is a decent person and chose to follow her here. If you insist on throwing your weight around, bullying others just because you can, and refuse to know what’s good for you, I don’t mind having a fight with you..."
"Fight me? Hahaha, Fat Taoist, you really don’t know how high the heavens are or how thick the earth is. Do you know who I am? Do you know whose turf this is? Acting so out of touch with reality, not knowing what’s good for you, you’re really looking for death without checking the date!" Qiong Hu laughed loudly and said with disdain.
"Is that so? Do you know my Taoist title is Tongtian? Do you know that if you keep oppressing people like this, using your power to crush others, you’ll bring a killing disaster upon yourself? Don’t think that just because you’re on your own clan’s turf you can act with impunity—some things aren’t as certain as you think!" Ye Tianchen looked coldly at Qiong Hu and said.
"You... very good. You’ve contradicted me like this twice; don’t blame me for being rude. I think you’re exactly someone that Ye Tianchen sent here to deliberately frame Golden-faced Young Master. Now you’ve already offended our Qiong Qi Descendants, and offended us very deeply. That oil pot is where you belong—you can be the first to go in!" Qiong Hu glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen and said.
"You get to decide that? Are you putting Princess Zi Xuan completely beneath your notice?" Ye Tianchen asked on purpose.
"You... you’re on the brink of death and you’re still trying to sow discord between me and my junior sister, you really deserve to die!" Qiong Hu said through gritted teeth.
Seeing Qiong Hu about to make a move against Ye Tianchen, Princess Zi Xuan frowned slightly, then spoke up, "Senior brother, I think we still need to discuss this matter at length. Our most important task right now is to find the whereabouts of that Ye Tianchen. Otherwise, everything will be in vain!"
"But these two won’t tell the truth. Might as well throw them into the oil pot!" Qiong Hu said viciously.
Princess Zi Xuan nodded. She probably also felt that what Golden-faced Young Master and the Fat Taoist were saying was a bit unreliable, that they definitely weren’t being completely honest. So she also felt it necessary to try this, to give them a show of force!
The main thing was, Princess Zi Xuan also wanted to learn Ye Tianchen’s whereabouts; she had a question in her heart!
"Yes, yes, yes, you should throw that Fat Taoist, who’s spouting nonsense and trying to smear me, into that oil pot and fry him first, that’s right. He’s definitely someone Ye Tianchen sent to frame me, he definitely knows Ye Tianchen’s whereabouts, you absolutely mustn’t let him go!" Once he heard Qiong Hu’s words, Golden-faced Young Master immediately said viciously.
"Golden-faced Young Master, you’re far too vicious. I have no enmity with you, I was just talking about the matter as it stands, telling the plain truth, yet you actually want to harm me like this. That alone shows that you and that Ye Tianchen are exactly the same kind of person. I think you should be the first to go into that oil pot and get fried; I guarantee you’ll start telling the truth then!" Ye Tianchen shook his head and, putting on a helpless look, said.
