Supreme Sword God

Chapter 813 - 812: Mysterious Stone Tablet, Leading the Army to Set Out

Yuan Polu kept scratching his shiny bald head, trying hard to remember what he had said.

Before long, Liu Meng’Er walked over with red eyes.

”Junior Brother... thank you!”

Ye Chen said, ”Senior Sister, we’re family.”

Liu Meng’Er nodded heavily.

Having dealt with Senior Sister’s issue, Ye Chen was feeling a bit troubled himself.

The Mad Old Man was staying inside the Holy Artifact Moon Palace of the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom. He came for his physical body, but it had already been handed over to Situ Bo.

Telling the Mad Old Man now would just lead him to storm the Situ Family, but that wouldn’t be effective.

We need to wait for the Situ Family to gather more people, ideally inviting the worldly traveler Yun Feiyang of the Original Heaven, and only then should the Mad Old Man take action, taking them all down at once!

So, for now, we need to keep the Mad Old Man calm.

”Hopefully, he’s forgotten what he wanted from me by now.” Ye Chen muttered, thinking it was best to evade him for the moment and instead go see Third Uncle.

Ye Zhenming had an exceptionally favorable treatment at the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom.

Living directly in the Imperial Palace, he was assigned a large area.

Miss Hei, as a niece-in-law, was indeed excellent to him.

When Ye Chen arrived at Ye Zhenming’s residence, he was momentarily stunned.

A large group of women, all beautiful and with excellent figures, were trailing behind Ye Zhenming, calling him ”Uncle” enthusiastically. The scene was extremely lively.

Among them, some were visibly pregnant.

After a brief meeting, Ye Chen was generous, giving gifts to everyone.

A moment later, Ye Zhenming sent the crowd away, staring at Ye Chen, ”Chen’Er, this is all your doing, making me lose focus on cultivating!”

Ye Chen: ”...”

Third Uncle was clearly getting a good deal while complaining!

Clearly, he was enjoying himself too much to think of anything else.

But it didn’t matter. This was a good thing; it was important for the Ye Family to flourish!

”Third Uncle, how about I arrange another beauty contest?” Ye Chen chuckled and said, ”Third Uncle, I’ll also come up with some body tempering training methods for you—keeping a strong body is important!”

Ye Zhenming was speechless, ”You dare to mess with me, do you think I can’t handle you?”

Ye Chen said, ”Third Uncle, you’ve misunderstood me.”

”Alright, let’s not talk about this. You’re rarely back; come, let’s have a few drinks between uncle and nephew!”

The two of them drank and talked heartily, and Ye Zhenming was full of emotion and sighs.

Just then, Luo Tian, the thick-browed lad, hurried over.

”Third Uncle, I’ve got some matters to attend to, let’s drink another time.” Ye Chen said his farewell and immediately left with Luo Tian.

On the road.

Luo Tian said, ”That crazy guy knows you’re here and wants you to meet him immediately to return his belongings.”

”Hmm.” Ye Chen contemplated, thinking about how to bluff his way out.

”There won’t be any trouble, will there?” Luo Tian was a bit worried.

”How could there be any trouble?” Ye Chen said with a casual laugh.

A moment later, the two entered the Moon Palace and saw the Mad Old Man.

The current Mad Old Man no longer resembled a scruffy elder. He had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and looked extraordinarily handsome as he lay there leisurely.

The Artifact Spirit White Rabbit of the Moon Palace lay on the ground, used as a pillow by the Mad Old Man.

The dragon vein of the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom had transformed into a small dragon, also lying on the ground, used as a footrest by the Mad Old Man!

In the Mad Old Man’s hand, he was fiddling with a small sliver of stone. He glanced at Ye Chen and said, ”Where’s my stuff?”

Ye Chen: ”Please enlighten me, senior, as to what exactly it is?”

”If I remembered, would I ask you for it? I would have taken it back directly!”

Ye Chen said, ”Senior, I remember now, the item is here with me. I’ll return it to its rightful owner now.”

With that, Ye Chen took out a jade pendant.

”Hmph!”

The Mad Old Man snorted coldly, and the jade pendant shattered.

”You brat, give me my stuff back, or you’ll regret it!”

”Thud!”

Just then.

Luo Tian, at the side, directly knelt down.

Ye Chen: ”...”

Luo Tian kowtowed and said, ”Disciple Luo Tian greets Master!”

The Mad Old Man was startled, immediately standing up, ”Good, from now on, you are my disciple. Master all my skills, and you’ll roam the world with pride!”

In the next instant, the Mad Old Man’s power enveloped Luo Tian and took him away from Ye Chen’s sight.

A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Chen’s lips.

He knew why Luo Tian had knelt down like that.

Luo Tian was worried that he couldn’t produce what the Mad Old Man wanted, so he directly took him as a master to divert the Mad Old Man’s attention.

This act of brotherhood moved Ye Chen.

However, for Luo Tian, this was a great opportunity.

Who was the Mad Old Man?

The World Daoist Master Yi Xiaoyao from the previous era!

Even if the Mad Old Man only taught Luo Tian a little, it would benefit him for a lifetime!

As for whether Luo Tian would get entangled in the karmic cycle of epochal change, it didn’t matter anymore.

Luo Tian’s Sword Dao talent was outstanding, and he has the potential to walk the path of the strong!

”Hmm?”

Ye Chen noticed a stone sliver at the spot where the Mad Old Man had been lying.

This item had been toyed with in the Mad Old Man’s hand just moments ago, and in his excitement over Luo Tian’s apprenticeship, the Mad Old Man had tossed it aside.

Anything the Mad Old Man used for amusement might be a treasure.

Ye Chen immediately stepped forward and picked up the stone sliver.

The stone felt smooth and warm to the touch, with sides covered in intricate patterns, mysterious and profound.

Ye Chen tried to input a trace of sword essence, but the stone remained unresponsive.

”What is this thing?” Ye Chen looked at the Artifact Spirit White Rabbit beside him.

The White Rabbit shook its head, ”That guy always had it in his hands, but what exactly it is, probably only he knew... or maybe, he knew, but he has already forgotten.”

Ye Chen acknowledged it with a sound and casually tossed the stone sliver into the Storage Ring.

It turned out to be a gain.

Not only did he avoid returning the Mad Old Man’s physical body, but he also got a stone sliver for free. He’d contemplate its value later.

Now that the Mad Old Man had taken Luo Tian away, Ye Chen also left the Moon Palace.

It was time to start the full deployment!

The next day.

Five heavenly gates appeared above the Imperial Palace.

Around them, a group of elite warriors from the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom had already gathered, along with a group of Artifact Refiners!

Among them were Mu Yi, Mu Baoming, and Tian Bugui, who had come with Ye Chen from the True Martial Hall.

Ye Chen’s teacher Yang Tianji, senior brother Yuan Polu, senior sister Liu Meng’Er, Ouyang Xiaoling, Qu Xiao and others were present as well.

As for Third Uncle Ye Zhenming, he stayed behind at the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom to make arrangements after taking down the Outer Heaven.

Luo Tian, taken by the Mad Old Man, was training inside the Moon Palace, while Fatty was learning Alchemy at Zhengxiong Manor, to be sent to the Outer Heaven later!

The Moon God looked at Ye Chen and said, ”Don’t rush into battles recklessly, prioritize safety above all.”

Even though she knew Ye Chen wouldn’t listen.

Whether or not he listened was up to him; whether or not she advised was up to her.

Ye Chen chuckled and said, ”Take care while you’re in the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom.”

The Moon God nodded.

Ye Chen turned to the group, laughed heartily, and said, ”This journey marks the beginning of a glorious expedition, let’s go!”

With those words.

A large group of people soared into the sky, entering the passage opened by the heavenly gates, heading towards the Outer Heaven.

Ye Chen’s heart surged with excitement.

This plan had been in the making for over half a year.

It was finally set in motion!

Though half a year is a short time.

To Ye Chen, it felt incredibly lengthy.

Time was pressing.

Every moment counted!

Once things are settled in Cangzhou, he must depart for the Celestial Burial Sea.

There, even more crucial matters and greater challenges awaited him!
