Chapter 2315: Chapter 2289: Fla Tablet! (Part 3)
“Oh?” Ye Chen was truly puzzled now. Because of him? What did that an?
The elder chuckled, his old face revealing a sly smile as he said, “Ye Chen, you and Little Ying have been involved in karma and have stepped into the divine blood area. Hence, you could be considered half a clan mber now. So, if Little Ying becos the head of our Elder Council, in the future, Ye Chen, you would also be bound to our secret realm.”
Although according to tradition, he could not pass the position to Ye Chen, and as an outsider, Ye Chen could not command the respect of the clansn, but passing the position to Fen Ying was different.
Ye Chen was taken aback by these words… That seed to make so sense. Fen Ying would not disregard the safety of the secret realm, nor could he forsake Fen Ying’s welfare.
A bitter smile appeared on his face. This elder really did think of the clan’s interests at all tis…
At that mont, the elder’s expression turned solemn, and his sharp gaze swept over the remaining Sealed Gate elders, barking, “You lot!”
The elders answered with faces full of reverence, “Present!”
“After the sage-like old man’s death, according to our rules, I shall succeed as the Elder Council head. Now, I officially announce, as the Council head, that the successor will be the Burning Sky Family head, Fen Tiangang’s daughter Fen Ying. If anyone from the clans opposes, slay them! From now on, you all shall follow Fen Ying’s commands and exhibit utmost loyalty!”
Tears welled up in the eyes of the remaining elders, eyes that had seen much of life, moved by the elder’s declaration. They knew the elder had devoted his life to the secret realm and was now prepared to die for it!
They responded in unison with utmost solemnity, “Yes!!! We shall heed the Council head’s final command!”
The elder nodded, fatigue showing on his old face. With a wave of his hand, a green flash shone from the depths of the palace, and a jade talisman flew out, landing in Fen Ying’s hand.
Fen Ying was stunned but did not refuse. She looked intently at the elder and after a brief silence, she solemnly replied, “Fen Ying accepts this great responsibility and will dedicate herself wholeheartedly to the glory of our secret realm!”
She could not refuse, nor did she have the heart to.
She was also a person of the secret realm and, although the sage-like old man and the elder had caused her great pain, she could not deny their contributions to the secret realm!
This must be the elder’s final wish, right?
So even if accepting this jade talisman ant a trendous burden on her shoulders, she was willing to bear it!
Despite her delicate exterior, her spirit was equally resilient!
Seeing Fen Ying accept, the elder finally showed a relieved and contented smile. He clasped his hands towards Ye Chen and said, “Well then, Ye Chen, the old man takes his leave.”
“Lastly, I actually sensed sothing upon your arrival.”
“Sothing of the Burning Sky Clan may be waiting for you.”
“But to subdue it is exceedingly difficult.”
Ye Chen’s expression changed, knowing the elder spoke of the Reincarnation Tablet. He nodded and said, “Farewell.”
The elder did not say anything further. In the next instant, a thunderous blast sounded from within his mind, and a formless shadowy figure shattered into nihility the mont it left his body.
The elder had taken his own life, even destroying his divine soul.
Ye Chen sighed lightly; reality was sotis helpless.
He waved his hand, drawing the sage-like old man’s and the elder’s storage bags into his grasp and handing them over to Fen Ying.
From now on, Fen Ying would be the de facto leader of the secret realm, and it was only right for her to handle these items.
At the sa ti, he also took away the sage-like old man’s corpse.
The sage-like old man exhibited the Burning Blood Technique, its power imnse. Undoubtedly, he possessed flas of a very high level within his body, which could be of great use to myself.
After handling everything, Fen Ying turned to one of the elders and asked, “It seems they’ve captured my father; do you know where he is?”
The elder respectfully replied, “Yes, your father is in the dungeon.”
Ye Chen and Fen Ying then made their way to the dungeon and released Fen Tiangang.
Seeing the almost unrecognizable figure of Fen Tiangang, Fen Ying couldn’t help but embrace her father and weep bitterly, recounting the events that had transpired.
Upon hearing her story, Fen Tiangang was entirely shocked, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets. He had initially sent Fen Kuang to find Ye Chen out of trust and expectation, and also with the hopes of leveraging the might of the Mystic Moon Sect!
Who would have thought that Ye Chen would not only slay Fen Wuling on his own but also possess the power to continue the battle and, Fen Tiangang believed, the capability to kill both the sage-like old man and the second elder!
This rugged man seed completely indifferent to his injuries, clapping Ye Chen on the shoulder and laughing heartily, “Hahaha, Young Master Ye, I really didn’t misjudge you!”
Ye Chen smiled, saying apologetically, “Uncle, I’m sorry for arriving late, causing you and Ying’er to suffer.”
Fen Tiangang waved his hand dismissively, “You have nothing to apologize for. I know you’ve done your best. Being able to accomplish all this is nothing short of miraculous!”
He then sneakily sidled up to Ye Chen, slinging an arm around his neck, and whispered, “Kid, you’re sleeping with
tonight!”
“Eh?” Ye Chen asked, puzzled, “Why?”
Although Fen Ying had beco the president of the secret realm Elder Council, Ye Chen wanted to leave the specific affairs to Fen Tiangang to manage first, arranging to take Fen Ying back to Lingwu Continent.
Moreover, with Fen Ying’s current strength, even with the support of four Sealed Gate elders, lacking sufficient power would still make it quite difficult to command respect. At the very least, Fen Ying needed to reach the Sealed Gate level of cultivation first.
Fen Tiangang squinted his eyes and said, “Why? There’s naturally a reason.”
“I’ve sensed sothing extraordinary about you.”
Ye Chen instantly understood that this was probably because he had activated the Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline and Soaring Wind Divine Vein, which the other party had discovered.
And this person almost certainly knew the whereabouts of the Reincarnation Tablet.
Following that, the secret realm Elder Council once again summoned the heads of each Family, announcing Fen Ying’s new position as the president of the Elder Council. With Ye Chen present, naturally, no one dared to raise any objections.
At the sa ti, Fen Ying also declared that Fen Tiangang would temporarily assu the role of council president.
After that, a celebratory feast ensued.
During the banquet, however, Ye Chen hardly cared for food or drink; his attention was solely on waiting for the night.
Dusk approached.
Fen Tiangang and Ye Chen were seated in a secret chamber.
It was a relic from ancient experts, concealing all traces of their presence.
Even those in the Disaster Slaying realm couldn’t possibly penetrate its secrets.
Ye Chen was sowhat surprised by this; he realized he had underestimated Fen Tiangang.
“Kid, have you already obtained a few pieces of the Reincarnation Tablet?”
Fen Tiangang got straight to the point.
Ye Chen nodded, and just as he was about to speak, Fen Tiangang interjected, “You don’t need to discuss specifics with .”
“The Burning Sky Family has indeed been guarding a piece of the Reincarnation Tablet.”
