Chapter 3735: Chapter 3725: Truth-Telling Wine (Part 1)

Half a day later, the two of them stopped, gazing at the scene in front of them with a look of shock on their faces!

At the end of this desolate land, there was unexpectedly a sea of clouds and mist!

As far as the eye could see, the sea of clouds seemed to merge with the sky!

And within the sea of mist, there stood a bridge made entirely of some kind of black jade!

At the head of the bridge, a middle-aged man dressed in black, with a pale face, was sitting there, with a table full of wine and dishes in front of him, drinking and eating alone.

Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong looked at the man and instantly their pupils shrunk!

The man did not hide his cultivation aura; an extremely powerful presence emanated from him, clearly a late-stage Heavenly Repairing Realm existence!

Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong exchanged glances and moved, landing in front of the man.

The man looked up, glanced at Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong, and coldly smiled, saying: ”Looks like someone tried to slaughter pigs but ended up losing their lives.”

With that, he continued to eat without raising his head.

Xu Shenglong looked at the table full of dishes and the wine as clear as jade and couldn’t help but swallow!

This wine and dishes were too fragrant!

Even Xu Shenglong had eaten at the best restaurants in the Moon Soul Domain, but they couldn’t come close to a thousandth of this man’s spread!

Ye Chen looked at the man, moved, and walked directly toward that Black Jade Bridge!

The man, who was enjoying his meal, suddenly flashed a fierce look and shouted: ”Stop!”

Ye Chen paused and looked at him.

The man glanced at Ye Chen, waved his hand, and placed two sets of utensils on the table, saying: ”You want to cross the bridge?”

Ye Chen said blandly: ”That’s correct.”

The middle-aged man said: ”If you want to cross the bridge, accompany me to finish this meal and wine!”

Xu Shenglong was stunned; he knew there would be a test to enter the Dark Domain, but the test turned out to be drinking and eating?

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and asked: ”What if I refuse to eat?”

The man smiled and said: ”Then kill me.”

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed for a moment, and together with Xu Shenglong sat on the chair.

The middle-aged man poured each of them a cup of wine and said: ”This wine is called Truth-Telling Wine; once consumed, it is impossible to lie. Please.”

Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong’s expressions changed, and the next moment, they both drank the cup of wine in one gulp!

The man smiled: ”Refreshing!”

But the next moment, his eyes suddenly glowed as he asked the two: ”Are you spies investigating the Dark Domain?”

Both answered simultaneously: ”No.”

The man smiled, didn’t pursue further, and said: ”Eat.”

At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly asked: ”Is there poison in the food?”

The man laughed and said: ”No.”

Ye Chen nodded, and soon, the tableful of wine and dishes were swept clean by the three of them.

Ye Chen said: ”The meal’s finished; can we cross the bridge now?”

Upon hearing this, the man took out a folding fan and gently fanned it. He looked at Ye Chen, smiled faintly, and said: ”Before that, there’s one more test. You wouldn’t think inviting you to eat and drink counts as a test, now would you?”

Ye Chen said calmly: ”What test?”

The man stared at Ye Chen for a moment, his smile fading, and said: ”Give me a reason not to kill you.”

Xu Shenglong’s expression changed upon hearing this, his demonic energy churned violently, ready to strike!

But at this moment, his steps faltered, half kneeling on the ground, unable to muster even a bit of his overflowing demonic energy!

Ye Chen looked at the man and asked: ”Did you poison us?”

The middle-aged man burst into laughter: ”Poison? You’re accusing recklessly; that’s merely the strong after-effect of Truth-Telling Wine. I advise you not to channel spiritual energy; else, the after-effect will kick in.”

After speaking, his gaze grew colder and said: ”Alright, have you thought it through? It’s time to answer my question.”

Ye Chen spoke mildly: ”Because I have a fifty percent chance of killing you. Is that reason enough?”

Instantly, the atmosphere on the bridge plunged below absolute zero, the middle-aged man’s expression darkened as he sneered: ”The effect of Truth-Telling Wine wore off so quickly? Kid, you’re quite good at acting; I have to admit, that’s a skill, but you’ve picked the wrong opponent!”

With a loud boom, the sky-soaring aura within him abruptly erupted, his eyes filled with sharp killing intent, and he shouted:

”You think with the Annihilation Spirit Stone, I can’t see through your cultivation, thereby deceiving me?

Hehe, it’s unfortunate that this trick doesn’t work on some people! I’m quite surprised that a Heavenly God Realm brat dares to claim a fifty percent chance of killing me, and that too after drinking the Truth-Telling Wine?”

Ye Chen, unimpressed by the words, smirked: ”Believe it or not, we’re going to cross the bridge now; if you want to stop us, make your move then. However...”

Ye Chen’s tone suddenly turned icy, as infinite killing intent surged like an Asura sea of blood between heaven and earth. His eyes, cold beyond belief, locked firmly onto the middle-aged man as he spoke: ”If you strike, it will be a death match! Unless you completely destroy me, even if I have only a mouth left, I will gnaw your entire body to shreds! I’ll chew your bones and brain marrow into oblivion!

Also, bring out the wine antidote within three breaths!”

The middle-aged man heard and his gaze flickered, his aura wavering, standing stalemated with Ye Chen!

One breath...

Two breaths...

At the third breath, Ye Chen roared furiously at the sky, gripping a black Dragonslayer Sword, violent demonic energy soared skyward, destructive aura surged forth, like a Destructive Demon God, truly intending a life-and-death battle with the middle-aged man!

At this moment, the middle-aged man’s eyes flashed, his wrist moved, and a strange light shot towards Ye Chen!

Xu Shenglong looked at this scene, his face filled with unwilling guilt!

He was resentful, resentful of his current powerlessness!

Brother Ye was going to fight to the death with this terrifying presence for him?

Yet Ye Chen faced the strange light with a calm demeanor, gathering his aura, casually catching the light.

Xu Shenglong was surprised, only to realize that the strange light was a jade bottle.

In an instant, Xu Shenglong was astounded, looking at the middle-aged man. This person actually handed the antidote to Brother Ye?

This being, whose realm far exceeded theirs, was actually intimidated by Ye Chen’s mere words!

He couldn’t help but mutter incredulously: ”He handed the antidote over so easily?”

”Easily?”

The middle-aged man heard and smiled sinisterly: ”Hey, Heavenly God Realm boy, I’d like to ask why the strength of the Truth-Telling Wine seems to have no effect on you?”
