Chapter 2136: Still God

"Sword Kid, this is what happened during the day..."

However, after Xu Xiangwan told him what happened during the day, Ye Tiannan felt much more at ease.

"So that’s how it is. But I still can’t relax with you going off alone. Let Xu Xiangwan follow you!"

Ye Tiannan instructed.

"Alright, let her come along then."

Ye Chenfeng agreed.

The news that Xu Xiangwan was leaving together with Ye Chenfeng spread through the Sword Clan very quickly.

Fang Haoyu and the seven or eight others with him were practically about to explode with rage.

"Hmph, what right does this punk have to make Senior Sister Xu follow him?"

Fang Haoyu’s face was dark.

"As long as Senior Brother Fang is in the Sword Clan, no one can hurt this punk. But now he’s already left, and on top of that he doesn’t even have the Divine Artifact..."

Someone quietly suggested.

"Good, in that case, send people to tail them and report their movements to me at all times."

A violent killing intent burst from the depths of Fang Haoyu’s eyes.

"Senior Brother Fang, we understand. When the time comes that punk can die, but Senior Sister Xu absolutely cannot be harmed."

Fang Haoyu nodded. "I know. Besides, the prodigies of all the great forces have taken a hit. For us, this is the best opportunity."

"Senior Brother Fang, you mean we act immediately?"

The others asked with anticipation.

"Of course. If we don’t act now, when will we?"

...

"But before you leave, I want to take you to meet someone."

In the end, Ye Tiannan came looking for Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng naturally knew Ye Tiannan wanted him to meet Yu Chisu.

"Alright!"

Ye Chenfeng did not refuse.

Night, inside a mountain villa.

Ye Chenfeng met Yu Chisu.

Ye Chenfeng remained calm, but the instant Yu Chisu saw him, wild joy flashed across her face; she was just short of throwing herself at him.

"Where have you been these past two years? But seeing you alive... that’s really great."

Yu Chisu asked.

"I’m doing fine. What about you?"

Ye Chenfeng asked.

He also wanted to learn a bit more.

"Ever since you left, the New Order came. What’s strange is that it’s like you vanished from here—not in the sense that you died, but like you never existed at all. If it weren’t for the handful of us who still know about you, it’d really be as if you never appeared in this world."

Yu Chisu said.

On this point, Ye Chenfeng also admitted it.

It was a very strange feeling—this world actually had no traces of him ever having lived.

Fortunately, these old acquaintances could still remember him; otherwise, that would have been truly terrifying.

Could the Nine Heavens God King above the Nine Heavens have something to do with this?

All the mysteries would be revealed one by one...

"The fortunate part is that with help, I managed to unify Hongmen overseas. But the Southern Hongmen mysteriously disappeared."

Yu Chisu said.

Ye Chenfeng nodded. "The two brats from the Duan Family don’t dare show themselves anymore?"

"Mm, they disappeared right along with them. Our senior, Buddha Lord, vanished the same way."

Yu Chisu nodded.

"You said you unified Hongmen overseas? But it looks to me like you’re working for someone."

Ye Chenfeng suddenly said in a mysterious tone.

Yu Chisu’s gaze suddenly turned flustered; there was no way to escape Ye Chenfeng’s eyes.

At this moment, even Ye Tiannan couldn’t help but wink at Yu Chisu; it was obvious they were hiding something.

Yu Chisu smiled to cover her embarrassment. "Nothing like that. I’m the one calling the shots in Hongmen now."

"Oh? Then tell me, how did your Martial Arts strength skyrocket to this level in just two years?"

Ye Chenfeng asked.

"Under the New Order, it’s like everyone’s become a dragon. But I know some inside information. In Africa a lot of special mineral resources have been mined and used as new Medicinal Liquid. I’ve taken this kind of Medicinal Liquid, and it can greatly boost Martial Arts strength! There are also some very strange machines and such that can enhance power as well. And the West has awakened many Successors. Even Hongmen overseas has gained many bizarre Special Ability powerhouses. The New Order is too terrifying."

Yu Chisu spoke with lingering fear.

Hearing this, Ye Chenfeng was slightly stunned.

Africa’s mineral resources?

Weren’t those the very mines God had previously arranged for Long Williams to exploit?

Thinking of this, Ye Chenfeng felt more and more that everything happening under the New Order was all part of God’s secret layout.

What exactly was going on? What exactly was God trying to do?

"Oh, so that’s how it is. Then can you tell me, now that you’ve unified Hongmen, what are you planning to do next?"

Ye Chenfeng asked with a smile.

He hadn’t expected that single question to stump Yu Chisu.

Yu Chisu had never thought Ye Chenfeng would ask this; she froze on the spot.

She subconsciously opened her mouth. "I’m working for Ye..."

This was purely because Ye Chenfeng, who understood psychology deeply, had deliberately set a trap for her.

But Yu Chisu reacted fast enough and immediately stopped herself.

Ye Chenfeng smiled mysteriously. "Let’s pretend I never asked."

Ye Tiannan and Yu Chisu looked at each other, faces full of endless awkwardness.

Ye Tiannan in particular had a hint of blame in his gaze as he glared viciously at Yu Chisu.

"What are your plans next?"

Yu Chisu asked.

Ye Chenfeng’s lips curled in a smile. "For now, I’ll leave this place and wander around a bit."

"Alright. Be careful. If you need anything, just come to me."

Yu Chisu looked at Ye Chenfeng with a complicated expression.

They reminisced with their old friend all the way until deep into the night.

Ye Chenfeng gained quite a lot; at least he now knew the New Order really was connected to God, and that he had not simply disappeared.

And Yu Chisu and Ye Tiannan were secretly working for some mysterious person with the surname Ye?

Who could it be?

The first person Ye Chenfeng thought of was Ye Tiannan, but he immediately ruled that out. His instincts told him it was impossible.

Then who was this man surnamed Ye?

Ye Mingtian?

Ye Chenfeng felt that possibility was a bit higher...

But he vaguely sensed that this person wasn’t Ye Mingtian, but someone else.

"Sword Kid, where are we going?"

On the way out of the Sword Clan, Xu Xiangwan couldn’t help asking.

"Penglai!"

Ye Chenfeng smiled.

"Huh? Penglai? What is Sword Kid going to Penglai for?"

Xu Xiangwan’s face instantly changed.

That place was now a global Forbidden Land; going there was no different from courting death!

"Going to Penglai is, of course, going home."

Ye Chenfeng said calmly.

Xu Xiangwan gave Ye Chenfeng a strange look. She didn’t know what he intended to do.

But if there was danger, with her Cultivation and the Nine Serenities Sky Umbrella, she should have no problem retreating intact.

That night, the two of them rested midway.

Ye Chenfeng planned to take a good look at what exactly the Heavenly Mystery Artifact was.

"Pff!"

Yet the instant he opened the box, the Yin Yang Sorcery actually flared up.

Black blood overflowed from his mouth, and he fell unconscious.

Even more terrifying, the black blood seeped bit by bit along the box’s engravings, and a powerful surge of life force began to spill out.

The next day, Ye Chenfeng was found by Xu Xiangwan.

For the moment, he hadn’t left the Sword Clan; he was resisting the Yin Yang Sorcery.

"I really didn’t expect this flare-up to be so severe."

Ye Chenfeng muttered to himself.

Xu Xiangwan, watching all this from the side, silently thought in her heart, "It seems Sword Kid’s condition is even worse than I imagined. I absolutely have to protect him well."
