Chapter Seven Hundred and Six – The Mysterious Old Man

“Put this matter to the side,” Tang Chen said coolly after listening to the guard head’s report.

“Patriarch … …” the guard leader could not stop himself from saying. Head’s expression was indifferent as though this matter had nothingtodo with him.

Tang Chen glanced at his subordinate and said casually, “After this is over, it is alright for you to kill everyone in the market, but before this, no one is allowed to offend Xiao Yun Hai. Remember, no one!”

The guard leader’s heart shook. Patriarch was an authoritative person, but he never spoke gravely. However, his authority was unquestionable. It was the first time he had such a harsh expression! The guard leader was both shocked and scared. There was also a thread of relief. It was fortunate that he had been the one hit. Otherwise, his head … …

“Leave,” Tang Chen said.

“Yes!” The guard leader shrunk his head and retreated.

When there were only two people left in the room, Tang Chen spoke with a frown, “How did the yao envoys get involved?”

Head shook his head and said gravely, “It does not seem intentional.”

“Unintentional?” Tang Chen thought for a moment before saying, “We cannot be careless. It is a pity that we were not able to discover the strength of Xiao Yun Hai’s mute servant.”

“Unfathomable.” A look flashed through Head’s eyes. “He wasn’t able to fight back at all.”

If the guard leader was here, he would be gaping in shock. When he had been thrown out by A Gui, Head hadn’t just been passing by in coincidence, but had seen the entire process.

“Were you able to discover their origins?” Tang Chen asked, “Is she similar to one of the two women with Xiao Mo Ge?”

“I could not see it.” Head said, “She is similar in style to the purple energy woman with Xiao Mo Ge, but she does not have purple energies. Also … …”

He stopped.

“Also what?” Tang Chen’s eyes flashed as he asked urgently.

“The feeling she gives me is even more dangerous!” When Head said this, he unconsciously balled his fists, tendons bulging.

Tang Chen’s expression changed.

Head was his faithful and strongest expert. What Tang Chen trusted the most was his strength. Head cultivated the [Something from Nothing Spear], a top spear type mo skill. If it wasn’t for the chance encounter where Tang Chen had saved Head’s life, he definitely would not have been able to recruit such an expert.

Head’s strength could rival those top experts that had just risen to marshal level.

He was one of the trump cards in his hand.

Tang Chen had deliberately arranged what had happened today. He was still full of suspicion about Xiao Yun Hai’s identity, but he hadn’t expected the conclusion they reached to be so surprising.

Head looked like a rough man, but being capable of cultivating the [Something From Nothingness Spear] meant his intuition was unusually sharp. If he said it was more dangerous, there was only one cause. The mute servant of Xiao Yun Hai was even stronger than the Xiao Mo Ge’s purple energy female!

That wasn’t possible!

All of the mo territories knew that Xiao Mo Ge’s purple energy woman cultivated shen power.

A daring idea suddenly rose in Tang Chen’s mind.

–Did Xiao Yun Hai’s mute servant also cultivate shen power?

He shook his head. Shen power was not so easy to obtain. He changed the subject. “Have you found the use of the White Ridge Snake Bones?”

“The White Ridge Snake Bones can be used to forge mo weapons.”

“That’s not right!” Tang Chen shook his head. “Xiao Yun Hai’s other female servant has been in seclusion ever since they obtained the White Ridge Snake Bones. The news we found from Rare Artifacts Hall was that Xiao Yun Hai only decided to buy the White Ridge Snake Bones because of this female servant in seclusion. The White Ridge Snake Bones definitely has an unknown use and is related to the seclusion of his female servant. Keep investigating!”

In the void, A Gui sat silently. The purple chains passed through her body. These purple chains were much thicker than the last time that had Zuo Mo saw them, and the light had become more understated.

Exquisite black patterns had grown on the chains that were closest to her.

Her eyes were closed, and there was a serene and content smile on her face.

The Nether Reincarnation Lotus was extraordinary in effect. Her soul had not withered and grown even more condensed.

In this last while, she had continued to use her soul to nurture the Undying Shen power. The Undying Shen power was even stronger than before, and had changed as a result. The most visible effect was that the energy was not bright, and was now contained inside.

The stronger Undying Shen power restrained her even more completely.

There was no light, no sound, no smell in this void of nothingness.

This hopeless and insane void did not defeat this seemingly fragile young female.

Since the time that her soul received nurturing, she knew that it was definitely Young Master that had helped her. Her serene heart had told her long ago that she was with Young Master. But the dots of light in the void made her suddenly realize–

–She wasn’t just with Young Master. Young Master was working hard to save her.

There was nothing that would motivate this young female more than this.

Ever since then, there was always a warm sunny smile on her face.

Maybe Young Master could see her.

She wanted to use her smile to tell Young Master it wasn’t painful at all, wasn’t uncomfortable at all.

Every bit of pain was the growth of shen power! Shen power growing stronger meant she was able to protect Young master!

She was very happy.

Under the bright smile, something was imperceptibly taking form inside her soul.
