Chapter 1640: Chapter 1629: Ancient Oppression
"Snow blossom? This is a divine skill that only the royal family of the Lion King Lineage can comprehend. This girl truly is a genuine princess. Such aptitude would rank her in the top five among all the past princesses of the Lion King Lineage. Divine skills aren’t something people of this level can comprehend."
"Snow blossom! It sounds so poetic, but once unleashed, it’s extremely brutal. It uses extreme cold to permeate the opponent’s body, instantly freezing their meridians and bones. The cold air that penetrates their body condenses into ice spikes, piercing out from within them one by one."
The voice of Old Bai, Wu Fengxian, leisurely echoed in Ye Chenfeng’s mind.
In the VIP room on the second floor of the Ziyun Auction House.
The Ghost-faced Monk and Jiang Tongde’s bodies were covered with ice spikes, and the surrounding temperature had dropped slightly.
Bai Xiaorou had an innocent smile on her lips as she gazed at Ye Chenfeng. She loved quietly watching Ye Chenfeng’s face.
Meanwhile, Shui Hongfu, Shui Yifan, Shui Ziyan, and Shui Menghan, who had fallen to the ground, were still in shock over the deaths of the Ghost-faced Monk and Jiang Tongde. They hadn’t expected these two to die like this, and so miserably? Skewered like porcupines by ice spikes emerging from their bodies. Shui Hongfu and the others couldn’t help but shudder.
Ye Chenfeng returned the Meteoric Flame Sword in his hand to the Chaos Ring, then put the Black Xuan Sword planted in the ground back on his back.
Ye Chenfeng let Bai Xiaorou stand aside first. He retrieved the storage ring from the Ghost-faced Monk and found the antidote for the Drunken Soul Powder inside. He administered it to Shui Hongfu and the others.
After taking the antidote, Shui Hongfu and the others gradually regained their strength and stood up one by one.
Shui Hongfu and Shui Yifan looked somewhat fearfully at Bai Xiaorou, who seemed extremely innocent next to Ye Chenfeng. They could see Bai Xiaorou’s deep attachment to Ye Chenfeng.
But Bai Xiaorou possessed the strength of the Initial Stage of the Third Heaven of the Reincarnation Realm, while Ye Chenfeng only had the Middle Stage of the First Heaven of the Creation Realm. Shui Hongfu and Shui Yifan couldn’t understand why Bai Xiaorou was so attached to Ye Chenfeng.
Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan had both just confessed to Ye Chenfeng, and they looked at the innocent Bai Xiaorou with complex expressions.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
It was Shui Hongfu who broke the silence, sincerely expressing his gratitude: "Ye Xiaoyou, and this young lady, thank you both so much for saving our lives today. The Shuis will remember this thanks."
Bai Xiaorou, who had re-clung to Ye Chenfeng’s arm, coolly said, "I didn’t save you. I just dealt with those bad people who were bullying Brother Ye."
Hearing this, Shui Hongfu awkwardly smiled and said, "Ye Xiaoyou, if you need anything in the future, feel free to come to the Shuis. We will certainly help."
Ye Chenfeng casually waved his hand. Since the auction was over and Bai Xiaorou also solved the problem with Jiang Tongde and the Ghost-faced Monk for the Shuis, he planned to leave Tianyun City overnight. He didn’t want to waste any more time there.
"Old Master Shui, no need to thank me for tonight’s events. Xiaorou and I plan to leave Tianyun City tonight. There are still things waiting for me to handle. I’ll visit you next time!" Ye Chenfeng said.
Ye Chenfeng had said this, so Shui Hongfu couldn’t insist on him staying. Moreover, since Great Elder Jiang Tongde was dead, Shui Hongfu needed to thoroughly clean up the Great Elder’s faction. He had no time to entertain Ye Chenfeng, so he said, "Alright! Ye Xiaoyou, there’s no need for words of thanks. If you need anything, just come to the Shuis."
"Recently, in the Earth Profound Realm, that person known as the Mysterious Young Master has been making waves. I think Ye Xiaoyou is definitely not inferior to the Mysterious Young Master."
Ye Chenfeng smiled awkwardly because he was, in fact, the Mysterious Young Master Shui Hongfu mentioned.
Escorted by Shui Hongfu, Shui Yifan, and others, Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiaorou reached the entrance of the Ziyun Auction House.
Shui Menghan looked at Ye Chenfeng with reluctance, her pure face tinged with slight jealousy. She wanted to ask Ye Chenfeng to stay, but she knew he must have important matters to attend to. She wasn’t a willful woman, and she knew that being too willful would be annoying to a man.
Shui Menghan approached Ye Chenfeng and said, "Big Brother Ye, you must come back to see me! I’ll be waiting for you."
Shui Ziyan regretted her earlier confession because Ye Chenfeng was the man her sister liked. But since it had happened, she didn’t want to go against her heart. She also said, "Brother, I’ll miss you too."
Bai Xiaorou, clinging to Ye Chenfeng’s arm, didn’t understand love between men and women, but she felt uneasy. Her moist lips pouted slightly.
Bai Xiaorou had a mature and alluring body, yet she was innocent and pure. The maturity of a grown woman and the cuteness of a young girl existed together in Bai Xiaorou, greatly enhancing her charm. Moreover, her bones were filled with pride, and only in front of Ye Chenfeng would she display such a delicate side.
To be honest, Ye Chenfeng regarded Shui Menghan as a sister and Shui Ziyan as a friend. Confronted by these feelings, he could only smile bitterly. After exchanging some parting words, Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiaorou left Tianyun City together.
Watching the departing figures of Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiaorou, Shui Hongfu told Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan, "Ziyan, Menghan, if you truly like Ye Xiaoyou, I won’t oppose it, and I might even support you."
"After all, throughout history, strong people often have more than one woman by their side. Next time Ye Xiaoyou comes to Tianyun City, seize the opportunity!"
Upon hearing her grandfather’s words, Shui Menghan’s face immediately turned red, while the more mature Shui Ziyan also blushed slightly for the first time.
...
Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiaorou left Tianyun City together.
Because Bai Xiaorou’s appearance was so eye-catching, after much persuasion from Ye Chenfeng, Bai Xiaorou finally agreed to return to the small world inside the Chaos Ring.
As for the Tianjin Mouse, Xiaojin, it had long been placed into the Chaos Ring by Ye Chenfeng. Ever since Ye Chenfeng and Xiaojin established a master-servant contract, Xiaojin had become much more obedient, so Ye Chenfeng didn’t have to worry about it causing trouble in the small world anymore.
For Ye Chenfeng, even going without sleep for several months wasn’t a problem. After traveling overnight, Ye Chenfeng took a short rest amidst a mountain range.
Ye Chenfeng took out the ancestral rectangular box of the Shuis. He thought to himself, "Old Bai, Old Hei, let’s break the ancient seal on this box now!"
Ye Chenfeng was impatient to know what exactly was inside the box.
Old Bai Wu Fengxian said, "Little one, the box is covered with dense patterns, and there’s a certain pattern to them. To open this box, brute force won’t work. You need to rearrange the patterns on the box, and that will unlock it."
"Of course, there’s only one correct arrangement for the patterns. If you rearrange them incorrectly, not only will the box not open, but you’ll also be blown to bits by the force released from the patterns."
"But don’t worry, Old Hei and I won’t let that happen to you. Just follow our instructions, and you’ll definitely open this box."
Ye Chenfeng didn’t say much more. He placed his hands on the patterns of the box and continuously injected his spiritual energy into them.
After exhausting more than half of his spiritual energy, the patterns began to glow white. Following Old Bai and Old Hei’s instructions, Ye Chenfeng started to rearrange the patterns. He could feel the power contained within the patterns and no longer doubted Old Bai’s words.
If Ye Chenfeng made a mistake in the arrangement, the power within the patterns would be enough to kill him several times over.
About twenty minutes later.
Under the guidance of Old Bai and Old Hei, Ye Chenfeng rearranged the patterns very quickly.
He just needed to rearrange the last pattern to complete the task.
After moving the last pattern into the correct position,
the entire ancient rectangular box shook violently as a dazzling light shot out from the rearranged patterns.
Next.
With a "click",
the rectangular wooden box opened by itself.
However.
The moment the wooden box opened,
an ancient pressure burst out from the box, directly attacking Ye Chenfeng.
This pressure was not only ancient but also contained a sense of agelessness.
Like a fierce flood beast, the pressure surged towards Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng, unprepared, quickly stepped back.
But the pressure was faster, causing the ground to crack and trees to burst into splinters.
Within just a few breaths,
the ancient and timeless pressure had already closed in on Ye Chenfeng.
Old Bai and Old Hei spoke in an extremely serious tone, "Ancient oppression? The box actually contains ancient oppression?"
