Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1076: Chapter 1075: Mysterious Ring, Frustrated Madman

Before Ye Chen, Chi Mutian felt that the title of a madman in the Celestial Burial Sea... he was unworthy!

Compared to Ye Chen, his madness was indeed low-level!

Look at Ye Chen.

Last time they met, what was his cultivation level?

Even then, he dared to curse the Great Emperor!

Now... how much time has passed?

He wants to fight the Great Emperor at every turn!

”Attacking the lighthouse of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect is possible, but have you considered the predicament if the Ten Thousand Islands Sect people decide to destroy the lighthouse in a death-or-glory move, what happens to those inside hiding from the Black Tide?

Dead.

I’m not concerned.

Anyway, it’s none of my business.

But if many people die, the negative emotions before the spirits perish will be absorbed by the source of the Black Tide, which could cultivate a new batch of demonic spirits, perhaps even an Emperor-level spirit!”

That’s just Chi Mutian’s character, blunt and to the point.

He couldn’t care less about other’s deaths.

But he cannot watch the power of the forbidden zone’s demonic spirits grow stronger!

Ye Chen: ”Lao Chi, didn’t you have your eyes on a lighthouse?”

Chi Mutian: ”It’s infuriating to mention that. The lighthouse was built not long ago, and it was constructed by a loose cultivator faction, quite close to here. Yet the people inside are rude, savage, and unreasonable.

I revealed my name, but they still brandished their sabers to attack!

The moment the lighthouse was built, I noticed it. At that time, the individuals inside weren’t that strong.

In a short period, the strength inside has increased dramatically, especially with several Emperor-level sabers appearing!

If not for those Emperor-level sabers, I, Chi Mutian, could poke them to death even with just one finger!”

Listening to Lao Chi’s words, Ye Chen sensed a strong grievance, evidently, Lao Chi hadn’t had it easy.

However, Ye Chen’s mouth curved into a smile.

A newly built lighthouse.

The people inside are fierce, domineering, and rude.

Their strength has recently surged, bringing several Emperor’s Great Sabers.

All signs point to.

The lighthouse that Lao Chi had his eyes on belongs to the Seventy-two Islands!

When Ye Chen entered the forbidden zone for the first time, Old Wang from the Seventy-two Islands led an effort to build a lighthouse within, spending considerable resources, even inviting Ye Chen over to have a look.

Recently, the Seventy-two Islands took over the Celestial Child Divine Island, gaining millennia of accumulated strength, naturally boosting their power.

Those Emperor’s Long Saber were given to the Seventy-two Island people after Ye Chen destroyed Tong Dabao’s Sword Mountain Purgatory!

Ye Chen: ”Lao Chi, take me to that lighthouse.”

Chi Mutian: ”What, you want to attack that lighthouse too? I can tell you responsibly that the power inside that lighthouse is no weaker than the power inside the Ten Thousand Islands Sect’s lighthouse.

Just dealing with the Ten Thousand Islands Sect’s lighthouse is challenging enough; be careful about getting into more trouble.”

Ye Chen glanced at Chi Mutian’s finger.

That lighthouse belongs to the Seventy-two Islands, it’s our own, why attack it.

”Lao Chi, you only have one finger left, stop thinking about fighting all the time,” Ye Chen advised earnestly.

Having been lectured like this, Chi Mutian’s finger, even though it’s advanced to the divine level, felt like it might explode with anger!

Without waiting for Chi Mutian to react, Ye Chen waved his large hand and a force enveloped Chi Mutian’s finger, pulling it into his sleeve.

”Ye Chen, you brat...”

Ye Chen: ”Lao Chi, earlier you looked so mighty, but later when people see you so miserable, it’d ruin your reputation. We’re brothers, I’m looking out for you, just stay quietly in my sleeve and guide me later.”

”How can I, Chi Mutian, a Great Emperor, be reduced to residing in your sleeve!”

Ye Chen: ”Last time I refined your Haoyang Celestial Fire, while we were escaping, weren’t you comfortably staying in my sleeve?”

Chi Mutian: ”...”

Ye Chen glanced at Luo Tian.

Luo Tian wasn’t surprised.

Ye Chen and Fatty are alike, sometimes up to no good.

Then, Ye Chen instructed everyone to stay put and not wander. He’d be back to take them after finding a new lighthouse.

These people had just survived a narrow escape, and were still somewhat afraid. As Ye Chen was their savior, they naturally had no complaints.

......

With Chi Mutian’s Divine Finger tucked in his sleeve, Ye Chen set off with Luo Tian to find the Seventy-two Islands’ lighthouse.

”Lao Chi, you didn’t kill anyone inside that lighthouse, did you?” Ye Chen asked.

Chi Mutian: ”No, every time I approach, they stare me down with several Emperor Realms wielding Emperor’s Great Sabers, especially that scoundrel Old Wang. When I recover, I’ll make him question his life!”

Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

Good, no killings.

Otherwise, it would be really troublesome!

As for Lao Chi having a grudge against Old Wang... that’s a minor issue, easily resolved. If it can’t be resolved, a good beating to Lao Chi will do!

After all, Old Wang is genuinely one of our own. Whether he’s right or wrong, as long as there’s no breach of principle, siding with one’s own is never wrong!

”Lao Chi, you only have one finger left, wearing that ring all the time is too ostentatious. If someone snatches it, it wouldn’t be good. Why not let me keep it safe for you,” Ye Chen changed the topic.

Lao Chi’s ring, found at the source of the Black Tide, definitely holds a significant secret.

Previously, Ye Chen hadn’t considered taking a look.

But now... with stronger abilities, his curiosity had grown!

”Hmph, who dares to snatch something from Chi Mutian?!”

Luo Tian, who’d been silent, shook his head helplessly.

Who dares?

Ye Chen undoubtedly dares!

Anything Ye Chen sets his sights on is either coaxed or snagged.

Unless it’s from his own people, Ye Chen neither coaxes nor snatches.

Clearly, even though Ye Chen insists on having a life-or-death brotherly bond with Lao Chi, he doesn’t really see Lao Chi as one of his own!

Ye Chen chuckled, ”Lao Chi, I’m just looking, touching.”

”You brat stop those tricks!”

Ye Chen: ”Can’t I even take a look?”

”No way!”

Ye Chen flicked his sleeve, sending Lao Chi’s Divine Finger flying out, then with Divine Stone Power, he grabbed Lao Chi’s finger and forcibly removed the ring.

Lao Chi’s finger struggled.

Yet... to no avail!

Ye Chen held the ring, inspecting it carefully.

The ring is rustic, with the outer circle engraved in an extremely intricate and dense pattern. A casual glance leaves Ye Chen feeling dizzy.

And its inner circle is carved with numerous ferocious beasts, its ominous aura makes Ye Chen’s heart tremble.

Ye Chen was greatly astonished, quickly averting his gaze from the ring.

This thing, it’s too wicked!

Ye Chen released the force suppressing Lao Chi’s finger and returned the ring to it.

It’s better not to deal with unknown things.

To avoid causing a lot of trouble.

At this moment, Chi Mutian felt utterly frustrated!

For so long, he’s been the one bullying.

Today, he got bullied!

Ye Chen: ”Lao Chi, I told you, just a look and touch, now do you believe it?”

Chi Mutian: ”...”

”Don’t take it to heart, our brotherly bond shouldn’t be hurt.”

Chi Mutian really wanted to poke Ye Chen’s mouth with a finger, but alas, being no match, in the end, Lao Chi’s finger swiftly slid back into Ye Chen’s sleeve!

Thus, began another stretch of dull traveling.

Suddenly, Chi Mutian’s voice rang out, ”The lighthouse is just ahead!”
