All Heavens: Sharing Talents with Countless Mes
Chapter 918, Chapter 917: Zhang Will Atone for His Sins with Merit?
Behind him followed more than a dozen powerful figures from the Ruthless Clan, each possessing a formidable aura and considerable strength.
"Ye Fan, we meet again." Hua Yunfei's lips curled into a sinister smile. "You escaped last time, but you won't be so lucky this time."
Ye Fan stared at him coldly, his eyes filled with rage.
"Hua Yunfei, your ruthless lineage is truly a persistent ghost."
Hua Yunfei laughed heartily: "Likewise. Did you think we didn't know you were coming here?"
His gaze fell on the green copper block in Ye Fan's hand, and a glint of greed flashed in his eyes.
"That green copper ingot, and the treasure in that forbidden area, will today belong to my ruthless lineage!"
Ye Fan sneered: "You guys?"
“Not bad, just us.” Hua Yunfei waved his hand, and the dozen or so powerful men behind him immediately spread out, surrounding Ye Fan and Chu Yang.
"Ye Fan, do you think Tu Fei can protect you?" he said coldly. "Let me tell you something: we have three elders at the half-step Saint Realm this time. No matter how powerful Tu Fei is, he can't possibly be a match for three half-step Saint Realm experts."
Ye Fan's heart sank, and his gaze swept over the enemies surrounding them.
Sure enough, among those dozen or so powerful individuals, three possessed exceptionally strong auras; they were the half-step Saint Realm elders that Hua Yunfei had mentioned.
Three half-step Saint Realm experts...
This lineup is indeed beyond his ability to handle.
He subconsciously looked at Chu Yang, only to find that Chu Yang remained calm and composed, as if he didn't take these enemies seriously at all.
"Brother Tu..."
Chu Yang waved his hand, interrupting him.
"Don't worry, leave it to me," he said calmly.
Hua Yunfei scoffed, "Tu Fei, who do you think you are? You think you can stand against three half-step Saint Realm elders of my Ruthless Lineage? That's wishful thinking!"
Chu Yang glanced at him, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
“Three half-step Saint Realm experts?” he said softly. “In my eyes, they are nothing more than three ants.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
Hua Yunfei's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"What did you say?"
Chu Yang did not answer, but slowly raised his right hand.
An extremely terrifying aura surged from his body, overwhelming everything as if it would devour the entire world.
The three elders, all at the half-step Saint Realm, changed their expressions simultaneously, their entire bodies trembling slightly.
This breath...
terrible!
"Who...who exactly are you?" one of the elders asked in a trembling voice.
Chu Yang looked at him calmly, his smile growing even wider.
"Who I am doesn't matter," he said. "What matters is that you will all die here today."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly waved his hand.
A dazzling sword light burst forth from his fingertips, instantly piercing through the elder who had asked the question.
puff!
The elder coughed up blood, looked down at the wound on his chest in disbelief, his eyes filled with horror.
He tried to say something, but only managed a weak groan before collapsing to the ground.
An elder who was at the half-step Saint Realm was killed in one blow!
Everyone present was stunned.
Even Ye Fan was stunned, his face filled with disbelief.
He knew Chu Yang was strong, but he never expected him to be this strong.
One strike to instantly kill a half-step Saint Realm expert?
This is beyond strong; it's utterly overwhelming!
Hua Yunfei's face turned deathly pale instantly, and for the first time, fear appeared in his cold eyes.
"You...you're not Tu Fei!" he stammered. "Who are you?"
Chu Yang walked slowly toward him, and with each step he took, Hua Yunfei took a step back.
"I've said it before, who I am is unimportant," Chu Yang said calmly. "What's important is that your Ruthless Clan has repeatedly opposed me; today is the day for reckoning."
He waved his hand again, and two more sword lights shot out, killing the other two elders who were at the half-step Saint Realm on the spot.
The three elders, all at the half-step Saint Realm, perished in the blink of an eye!
The remaining powerful members of the ruthless lineage were already terrified and turned to flee.
But how could they possibly escape?
Chu Yang flashed, weaving through the crowd like a ghost.
With each strike, one person falls.
In a short while, all of the dozen or so powerful members of the Ruthless Clan perished, leaving only Hua Yunfei lying on the ground, trembling all over.
"No...don't kill me..." His voice trembled, his face filled with terror. "I can tell you all the secrets of the Ruthless Clan..."
Chu Yang looked down at him from his high position, without a trace of pity in his eyes.
"The secrets of the ruthless lineage?" he said softly. "I'm not interested."
"However, you did remind me of something."
He crouched down to be at eye level with Hua Yunfei.
“There’s someone who’s been keeping you informed,” he said. “Tell me, where is that person?”
Hua Yunfei was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "It's Duan De! That guy Duan De! He's been hiding nearby, monitoring your movements!"
Chu Yang nodded and stood up.
Thank you.
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of sword light appeared, and Hua Yunfei's head separated from his body, rolling onto the ice.
Ye Fan was deeply shocked by what he saw.
He finally understood why Chu Yang was able to destroy the Jiuli Dynasty overnight.
This strength was simply beyond his imagination.
“Brother Tu…no, Brother Chu,” Ye Fan took a deep breath and said, “You are Chu Yang, aren’t you?”
Chu Yang turned around, looked at him, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
When did you guess?
Ye Fan gave a wry smile: "Actually, I've had my suspicions for a while, but I've never dared to be sure."
"Only after witnessing your attack just now did I truly realize—in this world, who else but Chu Yang could possess such strength?"
Chu Yang nodded, without denying it.
“That’s right, I am Chu Yang,” he said. “Tu Fei is just a pseudonym I use to navigate the martial world.”
Ye Fan remained silent for a moment before finally asking the question that had been lingering in his mind: "Why did you hide your identity?"
Chu Yang pondered for a moment, then said, "The reasons are complicated and can't be explained in a short time. Simply put, Tu Fei's identity allows him to do things that are inconvenient for Chu Yang to do."
Ye Fan nodded thoughtfully.
He could probably understand what Chu Yang meant.
Chu Yang is the master of the Outer Heavens, and his every move is watched by countless people.
There were some things he couldn't do in person, so he used the identity of Tu Fei to handle them on his behalf.
“I understand,” Ye Fan said. “But don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about this.”
Chu Yang smiled slightly: "I believe you."
He turned to look at the altar and said, "Alright, enough chit-chat. Now that those troublesome fellows have been dealt with, let's go see what's hidden in that forbidden area."
Ye Fan nodded and followed Chu Yang toward the altar.
The two ascended the altar and arrived at the ancient stone door. The stone door was covered with dense runes, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.
Ye Fan took out the green copper block and stuck it on the stone door.
The green copper block immediately emitted a halo of light, resonating with the runes on the stone gate.
The next moment, the runes on the stone gate lit up, emitting a dazzling light.
Rumble!
With a dull thud, the heavy stone door slowly opened.
Behind the door was a pitch-black void.
Ye Fan took a deep breath and stepped inside.
Chu Yang followed closely behind.
After passing through that void, the two arrived in a completely new world.
This is a huge palace, resplendent in gold and filled with rare treasures.
In the very center of the palace, there is a high platform.
On the high platform, an ancient statue is enshrined.
The statue depicts a man in imperial robes, with a dignified face and imposing presence. Even though it is just a statue, it exudes a chilling aura.
"This is..." Ye Fan's pupils contracted, "...a statue of an ancient emperor?"
Chu Yang nodded, his expression becoming serious.
"That's right, this should be the ancient emperor that the mysterious senior mentioned."
The two walked up to the platform and came to the statue.
Ye Fan carefully examined the statue, his heart filled with awe.
Just then, the statue's eyes suddenly lit up, and two beams of light shot towards Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was jolted awake, realizing he was completely unable to move.
An old and majestic voice resounded in his mind.
"The Ancient Sacred Body... After ten thousand years, the Ancient Sacred Body has finally arrived here again..."
Ye Fan was shocked and tried to speak, but found that he couldn't move his mouth either.
The voice continued, "Young man, your presence here indicates you are destined to be with this green bronze block."
"The legacy I left behind here is now entrusted to you."
"I hope you will make good use of this legacy and protect this world during the great calamities to come."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light surged from the statue and entered Ye Fan's brow.
A massive amount of information flooded into Ye Fan's mind in an instant, making him feel like his head was about to explode.
Cultivation techniques, secret arts, insights into the Great Dao...
At this moment, all the knowledge and skills of this ancient emperor were passed on to Ye Fan.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Fan finally came to his senses.
He opened his eyes and found himself still standing in front of the statue, which had lost its former luster and become dull and lifeless.
"Congratulations," Chu Yang's voice came from the side, "you have received the inheritance of an ancient emperor."
Ye Fan turned to look at him, his eyes filled with a complex expression.
"Brother Chu, did you arrange all of this?"
Chu Yang smiled slightly, without giving a direct answer.
“This is what you deserve,” he said. “You possess the Ancient Sacred Body, already gifted with unparalleled talent. Now, you have received the inheritance of an ancient emperor; given time, you will surely become a pillar of this world.”
Ye Fan remained silent for a moment, then finally bowed deeply.
"Thank you very much, Brother Chu."
Chu Yang waved his hand: "No need to be so polite. We're friends, aren't we?"
Ye Fan raised his head, looked at Chu Yang's familiar face, and finally a smile appeared on his lips.
"That's right, we're friends."
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
The far north, at the entrance to the forbidden zone.
Chu Yang stood on the altar, looking at Ye Fan who was meditating cross-legged, and a gratified smile appeared on his lips.
Ye Fan has received the inheritance of that ancient emperor and is currently in seclusion to digest the massive amount of information and insights.
With his innate talent of the Ancient Sacred Body, coupled with this inheritance, he will surely grow into a top-tier powerhouse in time.
"Little Leaf, the road ahead is yours to walk alone."
Chu Yang said softly, his voice drifting away on the wind.
He left a divine thought clone in place to protect Ye Fan's safety, and then disappeared in a flash.
Meanwhile, a furtive figure was crouching behind an iceberg in the distance, trembling all over.
The figure was none other than Duan De.
He witnessed everything that had just happened—Hua Yunfei and the powerful members of the Ruthless lineage were easily slaughtered by Chu Yang, and the three elders at the half-step Saint Realm couldn't even withstand a single move.
That overwhelming strength terrified him.
"Tu Fei...it's actually Chu Yang..." His teeth chattered, and his voice trembled. "I've really kicked a hornet's nest this time..."
All he wanted to do now was escape this place as quickly as possible, to get as far away from Chu Yang as possible.
But his legs were as limp as noodles, and he couldn't muster any strength at all.
"I...I have to run..."
He struggled to his feet and was about to run away when a cold voice rang out from behind him.
"Duan De, where are you going?"
Duan De froze, then slowly turned around.
Chu Yang had appeared behind him at some point, looking down at him with amusement in his eyes.
"Emperor Chu...Emperor Chu..." Duan De knelt down with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly, "I was blind and shouldn't have betrayed Brother Ye Fan's whereabouts! I beg Your Majesty to spare my life! I beg Your Majesty to spare my life!"
Chu Yang looked at him calmly without saying a word.
Duan De was so frightened that he trembled all over, and cold sweat poured down his face, quickly freezing into a thin layer of frost on the ice.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong!" His voice trembled. "I'm willing to atone for my sins! I'll do anything Your Majesty asks! I only beg Your Majesty to spare my life!"
Chu Yang remained silent for a moment before finally speaking: "To atone for one's sins?"
"How do you plan to atone for your sins?"
Duan De's eyes darted around, and he quickly said, "I'm a seasoned tomb raider, and I know all kinds of ancient tombs and forbidden areas like the back of my hand! If Your Majesty needs me, I'm willing to serve you!"
"Moreover, the younger ones are well-informed and have connections in all walks of life, enabling them to gather all sorts of information for the Emperor!"
A faint smile appeared on Chu Yang's lips.
“It is somewhat useful,” he said, “but you can’t just let it go like this, betraying Ye Fan.”
Duan De's heart sank, and he quickly said, "Whatever punishment Your Majesty desires, I will accept!"
Chu Yang looked at his pitiful appearance and gently shook his head.
"I'll pass on the punishment; I can't be bothered to bother with someone as insignificant as you," he said. "However, you owe Ye Fan, and you'll have to repay that debt yourself."
"After he comes out of seclusion, you should go and apologize to him yourself."
"If he forgives you, then this matter is over. If he doesn't forgive you..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but the cold glint in his eyes said it all.
Duan De nodded repeatedly: "I understand! I will definitely apologize to Brother Ye Fan!" (End of Chapter)
