1013: Chapter 106: I Figured You Had Issues a Long Time Ago 1013: Chapter 106: I Figured You Had Issues a Long Time Ago The next day.
As the sun rose, Ye Chenfeng got up early.
He drew back the curtains in his room, allowing a ray of sunlight to spill through the window onto his face.
He still felt uneasy about Xu Shengnan.
He had always trusted his instincts, and fortunately, this time he had brought along the remaining seven vials of Bone Corrosion Liquid.
Should any accidents occur, these vials would be his life-saving trump card.
Elsewhere, in Xu Shengnan’s room, Xu Ziqi and Xu Shengnan had stayed together overnight.
Xu Ziqi, unable to sleep out of excitement while it was still dark, had Lin Xinyi’s enchanting image filling his mind.
He was eager to possess Lin Xinyi’s body.
Xu Shengnan, who had just gotten up, saw his son pacing incessantly in the room.
He shook his head and said, “Ziqi, once I join the Heavenly Alliance, my status there won’t be low.
In the future, you are to accomplish great things, pacify your emotions.”
Hearing his father’s words, Xu Ziqi took a few deep breaths and asked, “Dad, I didn’t get the chance to ask you last night, the place in Nia Country where the Primordial Heart Fruit grows underground, are there more of them?”
Xu Shengnan shook his head and replied, “We dug about ten meters underground before finding these twenty or so Primordial Heart Fruits.
We also repeatedly used instruments to scan the area, and there are no more Primordial Heart Fruits left.”
“Dad, what about the other two Venerable Level Peak experts from the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance?
Are they joining the Heavenly Alliance with us?” Xu Ziqi continued.
Xu Shengnan’s expression suddenly darkened, and he responded, “I kindly invited those two to join the Heavenly Alliance with me, but unfortunately, they were unwilling to betray the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
Thus, I have already sent them on their way, and they are dead in the place where the Primordial Heart Fruits grow underground.
We will also have to send Shen Mingxuan and the others on their way when we get there.”
…
As daylight fully broke, Shen Mingxuan, Lin Xinyi, and others also got out of bed.
After arranging for a breakfast for them, Xu Shengnan had Ye Chenfeng and his companions get into the same business van as the previous night.
Upon getting into the business van, Ye Chenfeng became even more convinced of his earlier suspicions.
He noticed that Xu Ziqi’s glances towards Lin Xinyi had grown fiercer, as if he couldn’t wait to tear her clothes apart.
Although Xu Ziqi was very good at hiding this desire, it was still picked up by Ye Chenfeng’s keen observational skills.
If Ye Chenfeng had not possessed the Bone Corrosion Liquid, he would most likely have chosen to leave immediately, as facing a Saint Level Initial Stage expert directly would mean certain death for him.
However, the Primordial Heart Fruits were too tempting, an indispensable item for him to create his own Soul Force fighters in the future.
Moreover, having seven vials of high-concentration Bone Corrosion Liquid empowered Ye Chenfeng to take a dangerous gamble.
As the saying goes, fortune favors the brave.
With a stoic expression but heightened vigilance in his heart against Xu Shengnan and Xu Ziqi.
Approximately two hours into the drive, Ye Chenfeng and the others arrived at a desolate wasteland, stretching far and wide with no people or buildings in sight.
At that moment, Xu Shengnan, who was driving the business van, pulled over and told Ye Chenfeng and the others that they could get out of the van.
As Ye Chenfeng and the others stepped out of the vehicle, Xu Shengnan spoke with a smile, “Brother Ye, Mingxuan, and Xinyi, follow me.
I’ll lead you to the spot where the Primordial Heart Fruits are found underground.”
The group followed Xu Shengnan, and after walking for about fifteen minutes, they arrived at a pitch-black cave entrance that led underground.
Next to the entrance were five or six unlit torches.
Xu Shengnan lit the torches and handed one each to Ye Chenfeng, Shen Mingxuan, and others, keeping one for himself.
He said, “The place where the Primordial Heart Fruits grow is down here.”
After a brief statement, Xu Shengnan headed underground, but Ye Chenfeng didn’t rush to follow.
Instead, he waited until Shen Mingxuan and the others had entered first before slowly catching up.
After all, he had already warned them, and they had chosen not to believe him, so Ye Chenfeng saw no need to take the most dangerous position.
In the pitch-black entrance, Xu Shengnan and his team had stacked mud to create steps, leading into a very narrow passage.
After walking for over three minutes, the space ahead suddenly opened up.
Ye Chenfeng and the others followed Xu Shengnan to the deepest part, which was about the size of a room.
There were five or six torches embedded in the surrounding walls, which Xu Shengnan lit one by one, suddenly brightening the entire space so everyone could clearly see the scene inside.
The moment the torches on the walls were lit, Shen Mingxuan, Lin Xinyi, Cheng Dahhu, and Xiao Liyuan’s eyes widened, for in a corner on the left side of the space, they saw two decomposing corpses.
These corpses were from two Venerable Level Peak experts of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance who had assisted Xu Shengnan.
However, as Xu Shengnan lit the torches, Ye Chenfeng immediately took action.
After entering the space, he slowly and deliberately moved closer to Xu Ziqi.
With Xu Ziqi’s Venerable Level Initial Stage strength, he had no ability to resist Ye Chenfeng.
Just as Xu Ziqi was about to laugh and reveal the truth, he felt a coldness at his neck, and Ye Chenfeng appeared before him, his right hand gripping Xu Ziqi’s neck.
From the discovery of the two Venerable Level Peak corpses to Ye Chenfeng suddenly subduing Xu Ziqi, all these events unfolded in mere seconds.
Xu Shengnan, initially thinking he could face off against Ye Chenfeng and the others, hadn’t expected Ye Chenfeng’s reaction to be so swift, leading to his downfall despite being a Saint Level Initial Stage expert.
With his right hand still gripping Xu Ziqi’s neck, Ye Chenfeng stared intently at Xu Shengnan under the flickering torchlight and said each word deliberately, “I had suspected you from the start.”
Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, Shen Mingxuan, Lin Xinyi, and the others came back to their senses.
Recalling Ye Chenfeng’s warning the night before, suspicions dawned on them as their gaze shifted entirely onto Xu Shengnan.
“Uncle Xu, what is the meaning of this?
Did you kill them?” Lin Xinyi asked coldly.
Holding a torch, Xu Shengnan’s facial muscles twitched slightly.
Knowing he couldn’t hide the truth any longer, he regretted not being more cautious around Shen Mingxuan and the others.
Xu Ziqi was his only son, and naturally, he didn’t want to see him hurt.
In his view, even if he let Ye Chenfeng and the others go for now, they would never escape Nia Country since it was under the control of the Heavenly Alliance.
Xu Shengnan, with a grim expression, stared at Ye Chenfeng and commanded, “Release my son immediately.”
Then, turning to Shen Mingxuan and the others, he said, “I killed those two from the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
I am now a member of the Heavenly Alliance.
You better persuade that kid to release my son, and maybe I’ll leave you with whole corpses.”
Held by the neck by Ye Chenfeng, Xu Ziqi knew Ye Chenfeng wouldn’t dare kill him, so he began to taunt boldly, “Kid, hurry up and release me.
Do you think you can leave Nia Country alive?”
Then, turning his gaze to Lin Xinyi, he said, “Xin Yi, if you agree to become my slave, to be at my mercy, then I might spare your life.”
Upon hearing Xu Shengnan’s words followed by Xu Ziqi’s taunts, Lin Xinyi’s delicate face turned utterly cold as a faint murderous aura emanated from her, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xu Ziqi, who was still held by Ye Chenfeng’s grip.
The atmosphere in the underground space grew heavy.
