Chapter 472: We’re Trying To Save You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was eight o’clock in the evening, and the wind was blowing around Nine Dragons Teahouse.
Soon, Bao Xinhe, who had been waiting at the entrance, saw the two of them arrive. He walked over excitedly and stretched out his hand.
“Mr. Ye, you’re finally here. The patriarch and his friends are drinking tea inside.”
“Have you been here for a long time?”
“We just arrived. This teahouse was opened by a friend of mine. The taste is absolutely authentic.””
“Alright.”
Bao Xinhe led Ye Chen into a private room.
There were two sage-like people sitting inside the private room.
One of them looked rather similar to Bao Xinhe, and was the patriarch of the
Bao family, Bao Peimin.
As for the other one, judging from his aura, he was also one of the guardians.
As soon as Ye Chen took a step forward, he felt two pairs of eyes staring at him. Furthermore, powerful spiritual pressure swept over his body.
The two old men revealed playful smiles, as they were very curious about Ye Chen, especially about how he, a young man in his twenties, had managed to kill a guardian.
Ye Chen felt as if two huge mountains were pressing down on his shoulders. Had he been an ordinary person, he would have been turned into a pile of mush.
He snorted coldly and shook his shoulders. The blood dragon in his body surged, and a powerful baleful aura seemed to condense into a sharp blade that mercilessly slashed toward the pressure on his shoulders!
Boom! Something behind Ye Chen shattered!
The eyes of the two old men narrowed and they withdrew their spiritual pressure.
“As expected, heroes are born among the younger generation.”
Wei Ying also followed him in. Just as she was about to sit down, the other guardian said, “Unrelated people should leave.”
Wei Ying’s expression froze. She knew that this guardian was talking about her.
She was about to stand up and leave when Ye Chen grabbed her hand.
“She’s my friend. If she’s unrelated, then I’ll leave as well.”
“Wei Ying, sit,” Ye Chen said in an unquestionable tone.
Wei Ying glanced at him and sat down obediently.
The ancestor of the Bao family, Bao Peimin, did not have any objections, but
the other guardian’s expression was a little ugly.
He had heard that Ye Chen was extremely arrogant and thought that it was an exaggeration. Now, it seemed that it was true!
Bao Xinhe tried to smooth things over. He said to Bao Peimin, “Patriarch, I don’t think you came here just to drink tea, right?”
Bao Peimin nodded and said to Ye Chen, “I’ve learned about what happened. Although you didn’t start the conflict, you shouldn’t have killed that guardian. You could have seriously injured him, but you shouldn’t have killed him.
“You shouldn’t have beheaded Fang Zhenye’s three disciples either.
“Fang Zhenye is now proposing that we judge you at the roundtable. “This time, there are only 19 guardians, which means that it’s impossible to have a tied vote. I have asked a few guardians for their opinions. It’s extremely disadvantageous for you, and most of them plan to suppress you.
“If it weren’t for your close relationship with Xinhe, I might have wavered as well.”
Ye Chen thought of something and asked curiously, “I’m puzzled. With Fang Zhenye’s strength, why didn’t he take the initiative to kill me? Instead, he’s doing this the roundabout way and involving eighteen other people. Isn’t this more troublesome?”
Bao Peimin stroked his beard and said lightly, “Fang Zhenye isn’t stupid. The only advantage you have is your mysterious background. You disappeared for five years without a trace. What he fears is not you, but the powers behind you.”
“If he uses the roundtable, it means that the decision is backed by all of the guardians. Even if something happens, the powers behind you can’t say anything, let alone blame Fang Zhenye.
“If I were you, I would release a powerful signal to tell everyone that you have a powerful force protecting you, one strong enough to make Fang Zhenye wary. In this way, this matter would end well.”
“So, do you have such a powerful force behind you?”
Bao Peimin looked at Ye Chen with a burning gaze. This was also the purpose of his trip.
He would not show goodwill to Ye Chen for no reason, nor would he take sides just because of some words from a Bao family member.
If Ye Chen really had a mighty force behind him, then he was seeking an opportunity!
As long as he played his cards right, he would be able to take another step forward on his path of martial arts.
From his investigation, he learned that Ye Chen had powerful martial arts techniques and cultivation techniques.
There were only two possibilities for this. Either Ye Chen had accidentally obtained an inheritance, or there was an expert or force behind Ye Chen!
According to Bao Xinhe’s words, the person behind Ye Chen was most likely from the Kunlun Mountains!
The two elders and Bao Xinhe stared at Ye Chen, waiting for the secret to be revealed. Unexpectedly, Ye Chen shrugged and said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I’m all alone.”
He naturally would not say that there were a hundred ancient mighty experts standing behind him. Even if he did, no one would believe it.
He would not mention the old man’s name either. The old man was used to living in seclusion and did not like to be disturbed.
As for the guardian’s judgment, he was unafraid. After all, Chen Tianh would likely soon return. Once he did, this matter would be easily resolved.
Even if Chen Tianli did not return, there were already a few tombstones in the Samsara Graveyard that were showing signs of activation.
If Fang Zhenye or the guardians wanted to take him down, they would have to be prepared to die!
Hearing this answer, the other guardian stood up and said rudely, “Ye Chen, you’d better understand one thing. We’re trying to save you.
How could a lone cultivator reach the unity realm within five years?
Ye Chen was deliberately hiding it. In his eyes, he was just toying with them! Bao Peimin sighed. He had already guessed this result, but he still said, “Ye Chen, it’s fine if you don’t say it. Every martial artist has their own secrets. However, I’ll still reveal the information that you have a powerful sect behind you to the outside world. At least it might confuse some people.” “I originally wanted to help you, but now it seems that we’re redundant. The rest will depend on you. Also, I will vote against the proposal at the roundtable meeting. That’s all. You can leave first. Xinhe, send our guests out.” Bao Peimin’s tone was filled with helplessness. This was the only thing he could do, to form a good relationship.
At this moment, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words into the ear of the other guardian.
Seconds later, a cold smile appeared on the guardian’s lips..
