Chapter 2802: Clearing Away the Mysteries (2/2)

Moreover, there was something else that Jin Hong had failed to notice. An invisible power enveloped a radius of hundred thousand kilometers around this place and cut off all presences, such that even if presences leaked out, it would not reach the capital city of the Darkstar race.

This was Jian Chen’s ultimate will. Actually, he had already enveloped this region with his ultimate will when he began using the power of the essence blood.

All of his wounds, the unnatural activity of the essence blood in his body, and even the fainting had been an act that Jian Chen had purposely put on.

He did this to give off a false impression of being feeble.

He had appeared so feeble in front of Jin Hong, even clearly exposing the existence of the Grand Exalt’s essence blood to him, in order to see how Jin Hong would react. He wanted to see if Jin Hong would try and take it for himself.

In the end, Jin Hong’s response did not disappoint Jian Chen at all, and Jian Chen began to recognise Jin Hong from the bottom of his heart.

“You must be very curious where the droplet of essence blood in my body comes from, right?” At this moment, Jian Chen’s voice rang out as he healed. He was enveloped by the red cocoon, so it was impossible to make out his figure.

Hearing that, Jin Hong could not help but turn his head and gaze at Jian Chen in the vital energy. After a moment of thought, he said, “Are you saying you know the origins of the droplet of blood in your body?”

“I do. Not only do I know its origins, but I even know where you obtained your Grand Exalt’s legacy, as a late friend and I accidentally opened the place containing the ancient Skywolf’s legacy,” Jian Chen said calmly.

“What?” Jin Hong was stunned. He sprang onto his feet. In that moment, the shock that Jian Chen had brought him was even more intense than when Jin Hong discovered the ancient Skywolf’s essence blood on him.

His Dire Wolf clan had always treated the discovery of the ancient Skywolf’s legacy as the clan’s greatest honour. They believed they had been blessed by heavens, and it was destined by fate.

However, never did he imagine that this was actually all connected to Yang Yutian. The reason why he had obtained the Grand Exalt’s legacy in the first place was all because of Yang Yutian seated right beside him. Yang Yutian had instead become his greatest benefactor.

For a moment, Jin Hong had no idea how to respond. His emotions were extremely mixed. If it really was like what Yang Yutian said, did that not mean he owed a huge favour to Yang Yutian?

And, this favour would be so great that he would probably never be able to return it, even throughout his entire life.

After all, if Yang Yutian had not opened the location of the legacy, he would have never received the legacy. Without the legacy, he, Jin Hong, would probably still be someone insignificant in his clan. He would have never been able to enjoy his current glory.

Without any exaggeration, Yang Yutian had basically given him a new lease on life.

Jin Hong took a few deep breaths before taking a few steps back slowly and bowing deeply towards Jian Chen. His face was filled with sincere gratitude.

“Brother Jin Hong, there’s no need for you to be like this. Chosen as the successor by the ancient Skywolf, this is a fortuitous encounter that belongs to you. I’m just curious why you never tried taking the droplet of essence blood from me? I’ve already become heavily injured. With your strength, taking the droplet of essence blood from me would be a piece of cake. Aren’t you interested in the essence blood at all?”
