Chapter 4009: Chapter 4009: Killing Intent! (Sixth Update)

”I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”

Hou Tian was frightened by Xia Ruoxue, not daring to hesitate any longer, and quickly spoke out.

”Speak.”

At this moment, looking at Hou Tian’s miserable state, Xiao Bai felt a sense of satisfaction, waving a small fist as if to intimidate Hou Tian.

Hou Tian ignored Xiao Bai’s actions, took a few breaths, and then said, ”The Moon Evil Lake is indeed a treasure. I can tell you about the secrets of the Moon Evil Lake, but you must promise that once I tell you what you want to know, you will spare my life.”

Hou Tian’s eyes became determined, staring fiercely at Xia Ruoxue. He swore that if given the chance, he would torture the two before him!

They will never find redemption!

He even planned to torture anyone connected to these two individuals to death!

Without thinking further, Hou Tian began to speak word by word, ”Otherwise, I assure you, you’ll never learn about what you’re interested in from me.”

Hou Tian threatened in such a manner that Xia Ruoxue’s eyes flashed with cold light, but the next moment she smiled.

”Alright, even if I spare your life, what trouble can you cause? I promise you.”

Seeing Xia Ruoxue’s confidence, Ye Chen couldn’t help but look at her. This woman has experienced too little. How could someone like Hou Tian be easily let go? He’s a mid-stage Qiankun Realm existence, and Xia Ruoxue, despite seeming to underestimate him, is actually reluctant to kill, which will bring big trouble.

Ye Chen guessed correctly. Hou Tian heard Xia Ruoxue willing to spare his life and showed joy on the surface, repeatedly thanking, but inwardly sneering.

”Foolish and arrogant woman, isn’t it just the Bright Moon Heavenly Book? Once I survive, I will use all my power and connections to utterly annihilate you three, wash away the shame you brought me!”

Hou Tian’s heart surged with killing intent; he already hated Ye Chen and the other two to the core. Even if Xia Ruoxue spared his life, he wouldn’t feel any gratitude, and during his years at the position of Valley Master in Bright Moon Valley, he’d accumulated terrifying means and connections.

Even though Xia Ruoxue possesses the Bright Moon Heavenly Book, Hou Tian could easily exact revenge and kill Ye Chen and the other two, as apart from him, others wouldn’t be restrained by the Bright Moon Heavenly Book.

”Since you’ve agreed, I’ll tell you everything.”

At this point, Hou Tian showed a flattering smile to Xia Ruoxue, trying his best to appear harmless.

However, Hou Tian’s performance was full of flaws in Ye Chen’s eyes. Their conflict with Hou Tian was irreconcilable; Hou Tian hated them to the bone. Not killing Hou Tian would lead to endless troubles.

”You’re still too kind.”

Ye Chen gazed gently at Xia Ruoxue, resolved that once Xia Ruoxue extracted all the desired information from Hou Tian, he would strike and kill Hou Tian, as such a significant threat left alive would make everyone restless.

Under Xia Ruoxue’s indication, Hou Tian began to recount everything about the Moon Evil Lake.

It turns out the Moon Evil Lake is actually a treasure of an Ancient Moon God. Years ago, the First Generation Valley Master unexpectedly acquired the Moon Evil Lake in a tomb radiating powerful Divine Might, and then placed it within Bright Moon Valley.

Besides the Moon Evil Lake, the Valley Master also discovered the true ruins of the Moon God within the tomb. The ruins are the real burial grounds of the Moon God’s everything.

Yet, the Valley Master never qualified to enter the Moon God’s ruins; only those who cultivate the Bright Moon Heavenly Scripture and simultaneously control its Avatar can step inside.

Indeed, the Bright Moon Heavenly Book Xia Ruoxue possesses is just a nomological manifestation of the true Heavenly Scripture, which contains boundless might, the most original pure Moon Origin Power.

To control the true Bright Moon Heavenly Book, one must surely find the Ancient Moon God.

Regarding the stone tablet inside Moon Evil Lake, carved with stories of the Yue Hun Witch and Moon Deer, Hou Tian was unaware, as they never entered the space within the Moon Evil Lake, and even the First Generation Valley Master never ventured there.

Upon hearing all this from Hou Tian, Xia Ruoxue’s expression fluctuated, surprised to acquire news about the Ancient Moon God.

”Do you know where the Moon God’s ruins are?”

Xia Ruoxue stared coldly at Hou Tian and asked.

Hearing this, Hou Tian hesitated for a moment before glancing at Ye Chen, squinting his eyes. The Moon God’s ruins were too important, and he didn’t want to reveal it to anybody. Xia Ruoxue, inexperienced, might not discern his deceit, but this Ye Chen seemed harder to fool.

To save his life, Hou Tian eventually sighed deeply and said, ”The Moon God’s ruins are near Chenyue Sea’s Moon’s Hometown. You’ve heard of Moon’s Hometown, right?”

”Moon’s Hometown?”

Ye Chen frowned. Moon’s Hometown in Chenyue Sea is legendary, always considered an illusory tale, not expected to be real.

”Are you sure you’re not talking nonsense?”

Ye Chen fixed his gaze on Hou Tian, ”As far as I know, Moon’s Hometown is elusive, only appearing during the special Birth Moon Festival, allowing entry.”

”I’m not lying to you.” Hearing Ye Chen’s question, Hou Tian quickly shook his head, ”Moon’s Hometown does exist; the legends are true. The Birth Moon Festival indeed opens a portal to Moon’s Hometown near Chenyue Sea, though ordinary people can’t see it, only those who cultivate Moon Power can.”

”Is that so...”

Ye Chen squinted after hearing this, fixed his gaze on Hou Tian for a moment, and confirmed he wasn’t lying.

”I’ve told you all the info you wanted. Now can I leave?”

At this point, Hou Tian looked at Xia Ruoxue with a pleading face, suppressed by the Bright Moon Heavenly Book, feeling as if crushed by All Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms, fearing that another moment might lead to demise right there.

”Let you leave?” Ye Chen snorted coldly inwardly, looking at Xia Ruoxue. If she remained reluctant to act and intended to release Hou Tian, he would act, directly killing Hou Tian.

At this moment, Xia Ruoxue looked at Hou Tian, a struggle appearing in her eyes, surprising Ye Chen slightly. He knew Xia Ruoxue’s usual demeanour made it hard for her to kill, despite understanding the grave threat Hou Tian posed.

Yet now, Xia Ruoxue hesitated, which surprised Ye Chen.

The next moment, Xia Ruoxue’s hesitant gaze suddenly turned steadfast and filled with endless chilling coldness. She stared at Hou Tian, her voice icy.

”Don’t blame me for being ruthless; blame only your threat to Ye Chen being too great, I cannot keep you alive!”

Upon hearing this, Hou Tian’s face changed drastically, completely unprepared for Xia Ruoxue’s sudden outburst of killing intent, contrary to his expectations.

Completely different.
