Chapter 34 – Unexpected Even (1/2)

Yang Ye’s heart shook. He hadn’t expected that it would actually be noticed by her. He looked at the woman for a long time before he said, “No matter what, I can be considered to have rescued you. You don’t deny that right?”

“You rescued me!” The woman didn’t deny it.

Yang Ye continued and said, “I don’t have the extravagant hopes that you would feel grateful, but I don’t hope that someone I rescued is ungrateful. Your status in the Sword Sect isn’t low, and your strength is extremely formidable. Your likes and your principles in doing things are all your problems, whereas, I don’t need anyone to tell me how to act or what I should do!”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to make a move against her, but he gave up when he noticed her teasing smile. Yang Ye didn’t believe that an expert of the woman’s level didn’t possess any life-saving abilities. Moreover, they were currently in a hopeless situation, and he didn’t want to arouse internal strife between them.

The woman went silent for a short while before she said, “You’re a disciple of the Sword Sect, so it isn’t good for you to utilize a treasure from the Ghost Sect that’s covered in the blood of the Sword Sect’s disciples!”

Yang Ye said, “I’m not a disciple of the Sword Sect. I’m just a Labor Disciple, and a Labor Disciple isn’t considered as a disciple of the Sword Sect.”

“What do you mean by that?” The woman looked at Yang Ye and said in a low voice.

Yang Ye said, “Nothing much. I just don’t want others to tell me what to do. Of course, if you don’t like that, then I’ll return to the Grand Qin Empire once we leave this place. At any rate, I’m a Talisman Master, and I don’t have to worry about my future.”

He didn’t want to leave the Sword Sect because he wanted to take vent his rage. Moreover, if he had a sect as his backing, then he would have a safeguard when he roamed the world in the future. However, if this woman before him was petty and caused trouble for him after they left, then he would have no choice but to leave.

“The punishment for betraying the sect is death!” The woman spoke in a low voice.

Yang Ye shook his head and said, “According to my knowledge, Labor Disciples are only people the Sword Sect recruited from the mortal world to clean the sect, and the names of Labor Disciples aren’t recorded in the Sword Sect’s name register. In other words, I’m not a disciple of the Sword Sect. Since I’m not a disciple of the Sword Sect, then how could I betray it?”

The woman went silent. If it was any other person, and even if it was one of those extraordinary geniuses on the Outer Court Rankings that spoke these words, she would laugh with disdain and ridicule. However, this man called Yang Ye was different. He possessed gold element Profound Energy and was a Talisman Master. Moreover, his strength was the strongest amongst the experts of the Mortal Realm that she’d seen in her lifetime. If such a disciple left the Sword Sect, it would be the Sword Sect’s loss!

When she thought up to here, the woman said, “I don’t have any interest to care about your private affairs. If you’re not afraid of the Ghost Sect chasing after you, then use that b.l.o.o.d.y blade!”

Yang Ye revealed a smile when he saw the woman make a compromise, and he said, “I never intended to utilize this b.l.o.o.d.y blade. I cultivate sword skills, so how could I possibly utilize a blade?”

When she heard him, the woman came to an understanding. This fellow at the Mortal Realm had aroused killing intent towards her and spoken about leaving the sect because she’d threatened him. When she thought up to here, the woman gazed at Yang Ye and said in her heart, I never expected that a Profounder at the Mortal Realm would actually possess such an unyielding character and resolution. I really underestimated him just now.

After dealing with the conflict between them, Yang Ye sized up the surroundings. Perhaps it was because it was almost night, the visibility in the surroundings had lowered continuously. Of course, even if it was daytime, their field of vision wouldn’t reach more than a distance of 100 steps while the red colored mist was present here.

“It definitely won’t work out if we just sit here doing nothing. Do you have any ideas?” asked Yang Ye.

“No!” The woman’s answer was extremely direct.

Yang Ye had never placed any hope that she would have an idea. He walked towards the south, yet he noticed mist still covered the area in front of him while the ground was still covered in bones. He stopped moving, and then he walked back to where he started from and said, “We don’t have food here, nor do we have water. We’ll definitely be transformed into a member of the skeletons in the surroundings if this goes on.”

Even though both of them were Profounders, they still had to eat and drink. Especially under the current circ.u.mstances where their cultivations were sealed.

“Do you have any idea?” asked the woman.

Yang Ye pondered deeply for a short while, and then he said, “We’ll walk south, and we’ll continue forward and see if we’ll be able to leave this place. I don’t believe that this abyss is round.”

“Why south?” The woman frowned as she asked this question.

“The Sword Sect is in the south!” Yang Ye explained.

The woman shook her head and said, “Under the circ.u.mstances that we possessed Profound Energy, then it wouldn’t take long to travel from Death Mountain Range to Snake Forest. However, our cultivations have been sealed up at this moment. Even if we’re able to exit somewhere outside Snake Forest by walking towards the south, it’ll definitely be impossible to accomplish without over 10 days of time. Are we able to survive without eating and drinking for over 10 days of time?”

Yang Ye chuckled and said, “You don’t have to worry about that, I have a way!”

As he spoke, he commanded in his heart and summoned that ninth rank Darkbeast.

The grey wolf was extremely displeased from being summoned by Yang Ye, and it glared fiercely at Yang Ye. Because it was extremely comfortable for it while it was inside there.

The white clothed woman was shocked when she saw a ninth rank Darkbeast appear. She glanced at the Darkbeast before she glanced deeply at Yang Ye.

When he saw the grey wolf actually glared at him, Yang Ye couldn’t help but be slightly infuriated, and he said angrily, “What’re you glaring at?”
