C58 (1/2)

Wherever the black clothed person passed by, the disabled soldiers from the Zhao and Ye Families all stepped back. It was as if they were avoiding the death god, wishing they could run out of his sight.

However, outside the man in black's line of sight, in the endless darkness at the foot of the mountain, countless members of the Shadow Army, the Ye Family, and the Zhao Family all dared not enter the darkness.

Therefore, the handicapped veterans of the Ye and Zhao Families retreated to the center of the darkness and the fire. That way, they could not only keep their distance from the man in black, but also avoid entering the darkness.

That black-clothed man had only taken a few steps when the two great families' remnants of the army retreated, leaving Ye Tong, who was either advancing or retreating, standing alone by Xia Xingchen's side.

”Young master Xia, this …” Ye Tong's eyes were filled with fear as he looked at the approaching man in black. He had already decided to retreat.

Ye Tong didn't know if Xia Xing would kill Ye Tong, but he knew that the man in black before him would definitely kill Ye Tong!

During the entrance exam at the TianChu Martial Academy, Ye Tong was able to admit defeat to Xia Xingchen in order to survive. Now, facing the man in black who even his grandfather could not block one move, Ye Tong didn't even dare to resist!

After making up his mind, Ye Tong no longer hesitated and hurriedly ran in the direction of the group.

After Ye Tong left, only Xia Xinghe and the black clothed man were left near the gate to the ruins!

”Your loyalty is very low.” ”It's said that a monster has appeared in Eastsea City, in just a few short days, defeated countless experts and gathered all the forces in Eastsea City, the rumors are truly unbelievable. After all, you are just a little shrimp on the second level of the Heaven's Perception. All of the miracles you've created are the work of the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant behind you, am I right?”

Xia Xinghe did not answer the man in black but instead frowned slightly.

Why did this black-clad man repeatedly mention the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant hidden behind Xia Xinghe?

Fear?

Scared?

Or was he trying to lure out the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant that didn't even exist?

That's right!

Maybe the Shadow Army's target, aside from the ancient ruins, was that Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant.

After all, until now, the vast majority of people all believed that the pill dao divine art originated from a mysterious expert that they had never seen before, and not Xia Xingchen!

The appearance of the pill dao divine art itself was enough to cause a tsunami of shock. If one were to say that a young man at the second level of Heaven's Perception had mastered this divine art, perhaps no one would believe it.

After all, when the powerful warrior massacred the Fang family, he was only at the first level of the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror. On the other hand, when the three aristocratic families came to the Lan family, they actually broke through to the fourth level of the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror!

Such a speed of breakthrough had already far surpassed the scope of the people of Chu. Compared to Xia Xinghe, the speed of his breakthrough wasn't that shocking.

This included the fact that Xia Xinghe had slayed Xue Long in a heaven-defying manner. Some people believed that it was because of the medicinal pill, while others believed that it was the mysterious expert who had acted in secret. The medicinal pill was merely a disguise.
