Chapter 40 Not What I Want
Turning around and flicking his robe, Ye Chen and Bai Feng, who had a frosty face, walked into the side hall with Pan Zheng.
"Pan Zheng, I didn't want to do it to you so early, firstly because I didn't have an absolute grasp of the strength of the Star Palace, and secondly because I didn't have the confidence to take on the impact of this battle. Ye Chen turned his back to Pan Zheng, but there was a piercing chill between his words.
"Heh, I thought that you should be quite wise to be able to sit in the position of the hall master of the Star Palace, but I didn't expect you to be young and vigorous after all, you and I both know that our two forces need time, what if you win a battle at this time, will the five major families of Cangyue City let you grow?" Pan Zheng still had blood on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen were faintly mocking.
In Cangyue City, the five major families have been competing for hegemony for a long time, and no force has ever been able to reach their level for so many years, of course, Dan Jixuan, who has a special identity, is an exception. The other forces can't catch up with them not because these forces don't have enough geniuses and resources, there will always be a big hand stretched out in front of them on the way to the top forces to kill the hope of continuing to move forward, you have a genius, then I will kill this genius, you have rare resources, then I will snatch this resource, in short, the five major families of Cangyue City have maintained a high degree of consistency on this point, and will never allow the next force to reach their height.
The reason why Pan Zheng and Ye Chen were reluctant to fight so early was simply because there was a lack of a real master in the Star Hall and the Blood Sword Alliance, Bai Feng and Pan Zheng's strength was strong, but when facing the five major families with more than one Xuanshi, they were just a small fish in the sea, and they couldn't make too big waves.
Because there is a struggle between the two major forces in the scattered cultivation, the Blood Knife Alliance and the Star Hall check and balance each other, the five major families will not care too much about Pan Zheng's adventures and Ye Chen's talent, but after this battle, the Star Hall will undoubtedly usher in a rapid expansion, with the fall of the Blood Sword Alliance, the Star Hall will also usher in the real attention of the high-level forces of the five major families, and Ye Chen's talent revealed in the battle just now, together with his respected identity as a Dan Master, has become the most deadly thing on his body.
"Huh, I know what you said, but there are some things I have endured for a long time, and Brother Bai Feng has also endured for a long time, when you touch my bottom line again, I can only choose this step, I believe in myself, and I also believe in the Star Palace, we still have time, hold on, I will definitely take the Star Hall to cross the heavens." Ye Chen's confident voice came, which made Pan Zheng suddenly startled, and what surprised him even more was that Ye Chen took off his cloak in front of him.
The surprise was naturally not because this Chen Ye Hall Lord, who didn't even know the specific identity of the Star Palace, revealed his identity in front of him, but more importantly, this face Pan Zheng had seen it, and he had seen it himself in that place that violated his conscience.
"Are youβare you Ye Chen?"
Pan Zheng's surprised voice sounded, and then this voice turned into a kind of remorse, a kind of helplessness and gloom.
"No wonder you have long had the intention of fighting with my Blood Sword Alliance, no wonder you are awe-inspiring to me, I'm afraid that in your eyes I have long been a dead man, the original thing is indeed that I am ashamed of you, since this is the case, if you want to kill, you have to listen to it. Pan Zheng seems to have already developed a will to die, and he doesn't want to make any excuses for what happened in the first place.
"Your death is inevitable, but in the end, I still want to ask you, are Brother Zhao Long and Brother Liu Hong really gone?" Ye Chen's slightly trembling voice sounded, making De Pan Zheng look at him deeply.
"They all died, everyone except me and Mu Sheng died, and I made a tomb for them, right next to that lake. Alas, I really didn't expect you to actually survive and break through the dead line, no matter what you went through, but there was finally hope of avenging them. Pan Zheng's voice did not carry a trace of emotion, but Ye Chen still heard a trace of guilt and remorse from his words.
"I just want to know why you are doing this, Brother Zhao Long, they all respect you, and even treat you as their own big brother, but I didn't expect that in the end, everyone did not die under the claws of Xuanshui Jiao, but fell into the poison of the people behind them. β
"What I did at the beginning was not what I wanted, but what I can guarantee is that I didn't make a move on any of my brothers, of course I didn't stop Mu Sheng, I don't deserve their approval, Ye Chen, let me go out and explain to them, at least the Star Hall will be less troublesome in the future, this death, I have also waited for a long time." β
Pan Zheng did not answer Ye Chen's question directly, but lowered his body and said his request.
"Brother Bai Feng, what do you see?"
"Alas, Bai Zhuo's death was also my fault at the beginning, he was very willful since he was a child, always thinking about defeating me and teaching me a lesson, he didn't even tell me about going to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, I still told Mu Sheng the location of that Xuanshui Jiao, if I were a little more careful, maybe Bai Zhuo wouldn't have had an accident. β
Bai Feng didn't say what he was going to do with this Pan Zheng, he also saw that this Pan Zheng probably also had a hidden secret, but his brother's death was always something to do with Na Mu Sheng, as for this Pan Zheng, it would be completely handed over to Ye Chen to deal with.
"You go out with us and explain to them, if possible, let them join the Star Palace, I want to help these loose cultivators, although this is difficult, but I want to repay the kindness of Brother Zhao Long." β
"As for you, I don't want to make a move, but it's impossible to let you go, there must be an explanation for their deaths, I don't know if Brother Zhao Long is willing to let you go, but at this moment, I don't want to. Ye Chen put on his hat, full of mysterious energy, and his words were full of grief and indignation.
I can't repay Zhao Long and them, so I want to return this kindness to the scattered cultivators, it's really good, if there is no such thing, I must be able to follow these scattered cultivators to struggle towards the stars together. Pan Zheng smiled bitterly, people are doing it, the sky is watching, he was really sorry for them at the beginning, and now he finally has to repay this account.
Bai Feng made a move to seal Pan Zheng's Xuan vein, and the three of them returned to the main hall again, at this time, the hall was filled with a mysterious silence, and everyone looked at Ye Chen and them quietly.
Ye Chen pushed Pan Zheng, through the conversation just now, Ye Chen also understood his character, he can indeed treat the people of the Blood Sword Alliance as brothers, then he will also find the best way for them to retreat, and the current Star Hall is undoubtedly the best place to go for casual cultivation.
"Brothers of the Blood Sword Alliance, Pan is here to say sorry to you, just now Hall Master Chen met with me, I also know many things, I have done a lot of wrong things in my life, some things still make me difficult to let go, I am very glad to see Hall Lord Chen, I can also give them an explanation. β
"Everyone of the Blood Knife Alliance, I have decided, I want to exchange my own death for the forgiveness of Hall Master Chen, and even more so to ask for the forgiveness of those dead brothers. We all understand that those who have died together are brothers, and I am sorry for the trust of those brothers, so I want to go to them and apologize. β
"My death has nothing to do with Hall Master Chen, I know that I am a little strong, but I still hope that everyone can go to the Hall of Stars after my death, the road to loose cultivation is really too difficult, Lord Hall Chen is a trustworthy person, he can treat everyone as brothers, even if you were a member of the Blood Sword Alliance before, I believe he will treat everyone equally, and the Hall of Stars will inevitably suffer a test in the future, I hope you can help him, it can be regarded as making up for my guilt, it is the last thing I can do for those brothers, Pan Mou thanked you brothers again. β
Bai Feng sealed Pan Zheng's Xuan vein, but did not seal his spiritual power, Pan Zheng slowly pulled out his blood ring knife from the storage ring, and slowly closed his eyes.
"Who are you? What are you doing, outsiders are not allowed to trespass into the Hall of Stars!"
"Get out of the way, I want to see my brother, you get out of the way......"
Just as Pan Zheng's long knife was about to stick to his neck, there was a sudden noise outside the gate of the Star Palace.
"Xiao Rou!" Pan Zheng suddenly opened his eyes and looked out of the door in a panic.
"If you don't go out again, we're going to do it!" shouted the palace guard.
With this voice, a girl dressed in green yarn ran into the main hall of the meeting, with no powder, but with three points of delicateness.
"That, hall master, the people of the Star Hall don't beat women, this one can't stop us, and our subordinates ask for guilt. Following the girl, a doorman dressed as a martial artist of the Hall of Stars also rushed in, and when he saw the scene in the hall, he knelt down in shame.
Ye Chen helplessly supported his forehead, raised his hand to signal the palace guard to retreat, and turned to look at the girl who pounced on Pan Zheng.
"Brother, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, Lord Chen Yedian, if you want to kill me, kill me, my brother established this force just to protect the people around him, if you anger the Hall Lord Chen because of this, please raise your noble hand and let him go once, Xiao Rou is willing to atone for her sins and beg the Hall Master." The girl knelt straight in front of Ye Chen, and said incoherently with a crying voice.
"Shut up, what are you doing here, what about that bastard Pan Rong, didn't I let him take a good look at you? Go back quickly, you don't have to take care of my brother's affairs. Hearing Pan Rou's words, Pan Zheng's face suddenly lost blood, he was desperate to protect them, how could he be willing to let his sister be in danger at this time.
The girl didn't know Ye Chen's true identity, and she didn't pay attention to Pan Zheng's words, she just knelt there, kowtowing vigorously, begging vigorously.
I don't know why, a certain string in Ye Chen's heart seems to have been touched at this time. It was a day a year ago, because he had just come into contact with the dueling arena, Ye Chen was seriously injured by others in the battle, and he forced himself back to the small courtyard, but he fainted after spurting out a mouthful of blood, Ye Chen only remembered that on that helpless day, he was also a girl, kneeling on the ground and exchanging the blood on his forehead for the elixir to heal his injuries, in exchange for his own life.
