Chapter 690 – Wasn’t It Only One? (1/2)

“That woman isn’t ordinary!” Qin Bufan spoke abruptly after they left the hall, “I sensed a trace of faint coldness coming from her. My instincts tell me that she isn’t a weakling!”

“Then why didn’t you kill her?” asked Yang Ye.

Qin Bufan replied, “Do I seem like I have nothing better to do?”

Yang Ye said, “Right? Regardless of whether she’s ordinary or not, it doesn’t make much difference to us. The important matter at hand for us is to head to the Hallowed Grounds.”

Qin Bufan asked, “Actually, I still haven’t figured out why you intend to head to the Hallowed Grounds. You’re clearly not going there to kill, because how many can you kill even if you try? But if you aren’t going to kill, then why?”

“To get something and kill some people on the way!” answered Yang Ye.

The arc of light dispersed, and then Qin Bufan gave Yang Ye a thumbs up and said, “Even though it sounds like you’re putting on airs a little, I still like it. Out of consideration for that, I’ll definitely bury you if you’re killed in the Hallowed Grounds!”

“I’ll bury you if you’re killed as well!”

“I can’t die, hahaha!”

Yang Ye was speechless.

Yang Ye wrote a letter and asked the Mermaid Clan to send it to Ding Shaoyao. The incident here really stirred him up. He didn’t look down upon any race. Conversely, he even had a good impression of some demon beasts from the demon race. However, he was very clearly aware that it was impossible for others to feel the same. The human race, demon race, devil race, and oceanic clans were very hostile against each other.

Even though the human race’s current strength had made the other 3 races submit before them, the slightest mistake would cause internal strife to arise in the continent. It was even to the extent that it might cause huge problems to arise within the human race as well!

He wasn’t skilled at dealing with such matters, but he believed that Ding Shaoyao would be able to manage it well. As for the Ding Clan’s link to this incident, he’d mentioned it as well. As for how the matter would be dealt with, he’d left it to Ding Shaoyao to decide.

However, he believed that she wouldn’t disappoint him!

In next to no time, Yang Ye and Qin Bufan arrived before a circular platform on an island. The circular platform was over 60m tall and 300m wide, and there was a blue circle of light on it!

Yang Ye recognized the blue circle of light, it was a teleportation formation!

“We’ll immediately arrive at the Hallowed Grounds upon going up there. That’s a world which is completely different from Profounder Continent. There is abundant spirit energy, numerous geniuses, and countless experts there. It’s easy for us to head over there now, but it’ll be very difficult for us to return. Because once they notice us, they’ll definitely dispatch numerous experts to guard the exit!” said Qin Bufan.

Yang Ye replied, “What? You don’t dare to head over now?”

“Don’t try to egg me on!” Qin Bufan said, “I’m just trying to tell you about the situation we might face once we head over there!”

Yang Ye said, “If we stay on the continent, then we’ll always be in a pa.s.sive position, and only by heading to the Hallowed Grounds would we be able to turn the situation around. Moreover, those other defiant profounders are about to emerge. Don’t you want to join the battle?”

“It would definitely be a terrifying battle!” said Qin Bufan.

“You can’t die, so what’s so terrifying about it!?” asked Yang Ye.

Qin Bufan said, “You don’t understand. Even though we can’t die, we will grow weaker and fall into deep sleep. All those years ago, we were heavily injured to the point of falling into deep sleep, and that was why they were able to seal us. This time, I wonder how many of us will fall once more into deep sleep. Moreover, if we fall into deep sleep once more, we might be unable to wake up again!”

“Why?” asked Yang Ye.

Qin Bufan answered, “This world is on the verge of destruction. If the world collapses, then its laws would fall into chaos. At that time, even our undying bodies would be useless. The reason those fellows from the Outer Heavens sealed us here and extracted the violet energy from this world was because they want this world to be destroyed. In that way, the world would take us down with it!”
