It was not scary for a person to fall. What was scary was that he did not know what he should do at this moment.
- "Quotes from Ye Chen"
......
"Demon...."
Everyone below the stage saw Leng Xue being tortured by Ye Chen and felt a chill run down their spines. This could no longer be described as cruel and violent. He was a living devil!
However, in this world where compassion was scarce, there were not many who sympathized with Leng Xue. If he had defeated Ye Zhu in a few moves and not beaten her black and blue before throwing her off the battle platform, he would not have been tortured like this.
In this virtual world, these experts on the battle technique rankings would face hundreds and thousands of challenges every day. Leng Xue had the right and reason to reject Ye Zhu, but he did not do so. Instead, he held a playful attitude and slowly tortured her.
Although....
Ye Zhu should have been prepared to be tortured when she challenged others.
Since that was the case, Ye Chen had no one to blame if he challenged Leng Xue again and tortured him to death.
Puchi!
Ye Chen crushed Leng Xue's throat and then crushed every bone in his body. The intense pain left Leng Xue without the strength to even scream. He fainted a few times, but was awakened by Ye Chen.
The entire place was silent, and only the low groans of cold-blooded pain could be heard. Many of the experts present were terrified when they recalled how they had mistreated their challengers. After witnessing Ye Chen's cruelty, they would never dare to intentionally mistreat their challengers again.
Peng!
Ye Chen smashed Leng Xue's head with a punch. Leng Xue's body turned into a flash of white light and disappeared. Before he died, there was a trace of relief in his eyes.
Ye Chen stood up and looked at the crowd indifferently. He walked down the battle platform and the people below opened up a path for him to pass.
Under the gazes of everyone present, Ye Chen came to his sister Ye Zhu's side. He picked up the girl's battered figure and walked away. Countless people present watched his back as he left, but no one dared to stop him.
In the center of Yan Huang City, there was a spiritual spring. No matter how severe one's injuries were, one could recover completely after staying in it for a while.
Ye Chen placed Ye Zhu into the spirit pool. A moment later, the bruises on Ye Zhu's body and her broken arm healed. She walked out of the pool and the water on her body automatically disappeared. Although her body had healed, there was still a trace of fatigue in her eyes. However, when she saw Ye Chen, this trace of fatigue disappeared.
"Brother..." Ye Zhu jumped into Ye Chen's arms in surprise.
Ye Chen patted her shoulder and pulled her away. There was a trace of apology in his eyes as he said, "I haven't seen you for so long. I've made you worry."
Ye Zhu shook her head and giggled. She said innocently, "It's nothing. Anyway, you're back now." Her tiredness was covered by her smile.
Ye Chen felt a little pity and said, "Go offline first. I'll come and find you."
Ye Zhu nodded obediently like an obedient baby. There was no trace of the stubborn and unyielding spirit on the battle platform.
The two of them went offline. Ye Chen came to the ground floor where she lived. He pressed the doorbell and the steel door opened automatically. His body moved and he entered the sixth floor. He saw his sister Ye Zhu standing at the door with a naughty smile on her face.
Ye Chen's eyes softened. He patted her shoulder and walked in. He saw that the room was decorated as usual. He casually walked to the sofa and sat down. He waved to his sister and smiled. "Come and see if you've lost weight. I haven't contacted you for so long. Have you been eating well and sleeping well?"
Ye Zhu stuck out her tongue and said, "I'm all grown up. Don't always treat me like a child."
Ye Chen smiled and sighed. "Yes, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I still remember when we were little, we went to the store to steal peaches to eat. Don't mention how happy we were."
Ye Zhu curled her lips and said, "You still say that. You're so dumb. You actually ran with peaches in your hand. You didn't even know how to put them in your clothes. So stupid."
Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh. He suddenly thought of something and his eyes dimmed. After a while, he sighed and looked at the scenery outside the window. There was a trace of confusion in his eyes.
Many years later, can you still remember the innocence of your childhood?
Since when did a person lose himself?
Lost?
Ye Chen's pitch-black eyes flashed. Maybe, this wasn't called lost. Maybe, I've already lost myself and I'm still stubbornly stubborn?
He shook his head and didn't think too much about this question. In his previous life, he was able to live for ten years not because he was strong, but because he learned how to protect himself!
When the whole world turned cold, you had to put on an even colder coat to survive in this cold world. You had to protect your burning heart well!
Ye Zhu stood to the side, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curling into a smile. She thought of the interesting things from her childhood. Catching ants together, playing hide-and-seek, throwing snowballs, smashing the neighbor's window, and sneaking away...
She still remembered that Ye Chen was very dull and even a little inflexible. Every day after school, he only knew how to study and study. His grades were among the best in class. Every time she begged him to go out and play with her.
After their parents got into a car accident, Ye Chen, who was only in his teens and had just started high school, shouldered the family's daily needs. Their bus fare was earned by him working after school.
She still remembered Ye Chen's back view every time he went to work with a few books. He often went to work and read at the same time. This caused Ye Chen to often get fired, and his excellent grades were dragged down by a lot.
But she felt powerless.
She always looked at others working for her, but she couldn't help. This feeling was worse than killing her!
So...
After the apocalypse, she always wanted to help Ye Chen. For this reason, she worked hard in the virtual world to fight and train. Every time she was exhausted, she would go offline and sleep.
"Brother..." Ye Zhu looked at Ye Chen and frowned, "Where did you go?
Why can't we get through when we use the communicator? "
Ye Chen retracted his gaze from the window and said apologetically, "I mistakenly entered a place. The signal is cut off, so I can't receive."
Ye Zhu came to a realization and immediately shook her head, indicating that it was okay. She laughed and joked, "I thought the communicator was broken."
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. Suddenly, his heart moved. He drew with his finger and opened the rune space. He took out a crystal ball from inside. This crystal ball was emitting a white light. It was crystal clear and extremely beautiful.
"What is this?" Ye Zhu looked at this beautiful crystal ball in astonishment.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "This is the inheritance of the Light God worshipped by the Atlantis civilization. Once you accept it and learn all the things taught inside, you can become the Light God's messenger, which is the most loyal follower!" As he said this, he passed the Light God's messenger inheritance ball to her.
"For me?" Ye Zhu was stunned and said, "Can I accept it?"
"Anyone can."
Ye Chen shrugged and said, "But accepting it doesn't mean you can learn all the things inside. It depends on talent.
And once you accept the inheritance, this crystal ball will break. There won't be a second chance. "
Ye Zhu was stunned for a moment. She looked at the beautiful crystal ball. After a while, she shook her head and said, "This looks very powerful. You should use it. If I can't learn it, wouldn't it be a waste of this inheritance opportunity?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "I have better things. I don't need this."
"I don't want it!"
Ye Zhu curled her lips. She immediately saw through Ye Chen's lie. She raised her head and looked stubborn.
Ye Chen rolled his eyes in annoyance. He knew her stubborn temper and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll pass it on first. Let's see if I can find a way to teach it to you."
As he said this, he connected his mind with the crystal ball. As soon as he touched it, his mind was suddenly repelled.
"Hmm?"
A hint of surprise appeared in Ye Chen's eyes. He tried again, but the result was the same. As soon as his mind touched it, it was repelled by an invisible force outside the crystal ball.
"What's wrong?" Ye Zhu asked in surprise.
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "I can't accept the inheritance. This crystal ball is repelling me."
Ye Zhu was stunned for a moment and said, "Can't anyone accept the inheritance?"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said, "In theory, that's the case. Maybe there's another reason."
He vaguely guessed that it was either related to the mysterious underground world, or it was related to the God's Blood.
The God's Blood had changed his genes.
"If it's because of the God's Blood, then it's worth rejoicing. Fortunately, I didn't accept the inheritance immediately after I got the inheritance ball. Otherwise, the two things would repel each other. Maybe it was because I accepted the inheritance ball that I couldn't get the God's Blood."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen handed the crystal ball to his sister and said, "I'll leave it to you. If you become stronger, I'll be more at ease."
Ye Zhu's heart was suddenly moved. As long as she became stronger, she could fight by Ye Chen's side!
"Alright!"
Ye Zhu hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she still took the crystal ball. She clenched the crystal ball tightly and said in her heart, "I have to learn everything in the crystal ball. I can't let this opportunity go to waste."
...
The two of them chatted for the whole night, talking about many interesting things in the past. They forgot all their troubles and sank into the beautiful memories of the past. The next morning, Ye Chen left his sister's residence to buy some food. He then called Xu Tianguo's communicator and asked, "Is the equipment ready?"
"Just finished. Wait for me at Ma Xing Restaurant. I'll be right there."
Xu Tianguo said excitedly. He knew the level of the Soaring Serpent's leather armor from Mr. Lin's description. How could he not be excited?
Such a large piece of scale was enough to make dozens of full sets of level 600 leather armor. It was enough to raise a person's combat strength to a whole new level.
Ye Chen's expression was calm as usual. He turned off the communicator and went to Ma Xing Restaurant not far from the city gate. It was a small tavern. He didn't just stand by the door and wait. Instead, he went in and rented a private room. He then messaged Xu Tianguo with the room number.
Not long after, Xu Tianguo appeared at the door of the room. He was wearing a hat, and his face had changed a lot due to makeup. He was carrying a big bag on his back, which was very eye-catching, but no one paid much attention to him. In the base city, it was common for people to come and go with big bags. They were either carrying monster meat or daily necessities collected from the ruins in the wild.
"You're here?" Ye Chen said calmly.
Xu Tianguo walked in and gave Ye Chen a strange look. He asked curiously, "How did you know it was me?"
