Chapter 1734
“This ancient city is indeed a little strange.”
The moment he landed in the ancient city ruins, Xiao Chen sensed something. He felt that the ancient city was hiding something. Therefore, he became even more careful. He released his divine senses to the fullest, monitoring all the movements within a radius of 100,000 feet.
“Swish! Swish!
Swish! “Compared to Xiao Chen’s caution, Die Yu was very reckless. She actually dashed around the ancient city without any scruples, giving off the feeling that a bandit had entered the city. It was as though she was searching for something.
“Uh?
This … “Seeing Die Yu’s actions, Xiao Chen smiled bitterly in his heart. However, he didn’t say anything. He quickly followed the sprinting Die Yu. His goal was naturally to protect Die Yu.
Many buildings in the ancient city ruins had been turned into ruins, but there were still many buildings that were still relatively intact. Xiao Chen used his hand to touch the buildings and found that they were still very sturdy. They could still withstand the erosion of time.
Die Yu sprinted in front while Xiao Chen chased from behind. They added a sense of liveliness to the lifeless ancient city ruins, but it also made the ancient city’s atmosphere even more bizarre. It gave off a hair-raising feeling.
Xiao Chen and Die Yu were experts and believed in ghosts. Moreover, they were countless times stronger than ghosts. Why would they be afraid of ghosts?
It was more likely that ghosts would be afraid of them.
Two hours later, Xiao Chen and Die Yu headed towards the central region of the ancient city ruins. They didn’t find anything in the periphery. They even broke into some buildings that were still relatively intact, but they found nothing.
“Xiao Chen, this ancient city is quite old. It should have existed since ancient times, or even earlier. You should search carefully. You might be able to find something.” Suddenly, Green Shadow Sword’s voice appeared in Xiao Chen’s mind. It wasn’t afraid of scaring Xiao Chen.
“Ancient times?
Or even earlier?
Is it really that old? “Even though he was mentally prepared, Xiao Chen was still shocked by the antiquity of the ancient city.
For an ancient city to be able to experience hundreds of thousands of years without completely returning to its original appearance, it was enough to show that this ancient city was extraordinary. Its sturdiness was shocking.
“En, I feel that this ancient city was originally protected by a restriction. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to exist for so long.” Cyan Shadow Sword gave Xiao Chen a reasonable explanation.
“That’s more like it.”
Xiao Chen nodded in agreement and said with some anticipation, “Since the ancient city is so well protected by the seals, it means that this ancient city is not to be underestimated. It must be a city where some ancient cultivator or some ancient cultivator once stayed. Maybe they left something special behind.”
“Xiao Chen, the best thing is the inheritance of the Great Emperor. I am just a sword and do not know the methods of the Great Emperor Sword Shadow. Otherwise, I could help you become a Quasi-Emperor quickly,” the Green Shadow Sword expressed its opinion.
“Great Emperor’s inheritance?”
Xiao Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Naturally, he hoped to obtain the inheritance of the Great Emperor. However, the inheritance of the Great Emperor was not that easy to obtain.
Thus, he said calmly, “The inheritance of the Great Emperor is something that can only be chanced upon. I was fortunate enough to obtain the Phantom Technique of the Great Emperor Sword Shadow. I have obtained a portion of the inheritance. I am already very satisfied. Others cannot even dream of it. Haha.”
“En, Xiao Chen, your attitude is not bad. You are not anxious for instant benefits. No wonder you can achieve so much more than others. You have the potential to become a Martial Emperor. Do your best. Do not disappoint me. Haha.” The Green Shadow Sword had high expectations of Xiao Chen.
“Senior Green Shadow, you really think highly of me.” Even though he was praised by an Emperor weapon, Xiao Chen did not feel the slightest bit proud. Instead, he was somewhat humble.
“Xiao Chen, are you still being humble with me?
Your confidence is already bursting. You can even ignore a Quasi-Emperor. Hahahaha. “The Green Shadow Sword laughed humorously.
“Huh?
Really?
Hahaha! ”
Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. Then, he laughed loudly. The Green Shadow Sword’s personality was very much to his liking. Communicating with the Green Shadow Sword was like communicating with his grandfather, Xiao Batian.
…
After another hour, Xiao Chen and Die Yu had unknowingly arrived at the center of the ancient city. Along the way, they did not discover anything strange. Thus, they placed their hopes on the center.
There was a huge building in the center of the ancient city. It looked like a palace, but it was many times larger than a palace.
Facing such a huge palace, Xiao Chen had a premonition that the secret of the ancient city might be hidden in the palace.
Looking at Die Yu, Xiao Chen asked softly, “Die Yu, are we going to enter this palace now?”
Die Yu did not immediately answer Xiao Chen. Instead, she looked at the huge palace in front of her, as if she wanted to discover something. After a while, she turned to look at Xiao Chen and said, “Xiao Chen, are you sure you want to enter with me?
There might be great danger in there … ”
“Die Yu, you don’t have to say anymore.”
Xiao Chen looked at Die Yu and said seriously, “Don’t talk about a palace. Even if it is hell, I will accompany you into it because you are my best friend.”
“Friend?
I have never had a friend. ”
Die Yu shook her head slightly. Ignoring Xiao Chen’s stunned expression, she moved instantly and rushed towards the palace hundreds of feet away like a female leopard.
“No friends?
Am I not considered your friend? ”
Xiao Chen was stunned. Then, he felt bitter in his heart. He had thought that Die Yu had already treated him as a good friend but reality was cruel.
“Big Brother, why are you smiling bitterly?
She has already treated you as her husband. Who wants to be your friend?
Hehe. “Fengsha Sword said with a mischievous smile.
“That’s right. Big Brother has been in love for a long time, but you still can’t see the feelings of sister-in-law Die Yu. What a failure. Hahaha.” Da Huang also couldn’t help but tease Xiao Chen.
“Eh … What nonsense are you talking about …” Xiao Chen’s face turned red, but his mood suddenly became cheerful. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have fallen in love with Die Yu. So, he was very concerned about how Die Yu felt about him.
As a wife, she naturally couldn’t be a friend. Was Die Yu a hint?
Xiao Chen thought so, but he couldn’t be sure. So, he was somewhat nervous in his heart.
However, even if Die Yu fell in love with Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen didn’t dare to accept Die Yu’s love. After all, he already had five women, including Su Qingyi. In addition, Ximen Lian could also be counted as half a woman. Adding Die Yu, then he had seven women.
At that time, Xiao Chen would truly enjoy the happiness of seven beauties. The problem was that he was worried that Su Qingyi and the other women would reject Ximen Lian and Die Yu. Especially, would his four children think that he was a fickle father?
“Bang!”
A loud sound came from the front. Die Yu’s fist smashed the door that was exposed on the ground. The loud sound woke up Xiao Chen from his complicated mood.
“Let’s take one step at a time. It’s useless to think so much now.”
Seeing that Die Yu had already entered the palace, Xiao Chen calmed his mood and shot forward. After a moment, he entered the palace.
After entering the palace, Xiao Chen immediately looked for the figure of Die Yu. He discovered that Die Yu was standing motionlessly with her back facing him. It was as if she was intentionally waiting for him. His heart warmed. He smiled and quickly walked to Die Yu’s side.
Turning his head to look at Die Yu’s cold and elegant perfect face, Xiao Chen discovered that Die Yu’s expression was somewhat serious. Her eyes seemed to be sizing up the situation inside the palace. He couldn’t help but curiously sweep his gaze around the empty palace.
That’s right!
The interior of the palace was empty. It was very similar to the empty palace in the mausoleum of the Sword Shadow Emperor. However, the interior of this palace was terrifyingly large. It felt as if one couldn’t see the end of it. This matter was truly a little strange.
“This palace is a little strange. Could it be that there is a hidden high-level illusion?”
After experiencing so much, Xiao Chen naturally had a lot of ideas. He believed that the palace might contain a high-level illusion. It was just that he hadn’t discovered it yet.
“Xiao Chen, did you really see through it?
Or was it a blind guess?
Hehe. ”
Green Shadow Sword’s voice came out from the storage ring. It seemed as if he didn’t mind letting Die Yu hear his conversation with Xiao Chen.
“Uh … It was a blind guess.”
Xiao Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn’t pretend to understand what he didn’t know. However, he heard something from Green Shadow Sword’s tone. He asked, “Senior Green Shadow, you seem to have noticed something?
Is the interior of this palace really shrouded in an illusion? ”
“Yes, there is a huge and extremely profound illusion array. It is extremely difficult to break through this illusion array,” Green Shadow Sword replied with a serious expression.
“Very difficult?
Could it be that even Senior Green Shadow would find it difficult to break this illusion array? ”
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. He deliberately looked at Die Yu. Seeing that Die Yu didn’t have any expression, he could only wait for Green Shadow Sword’s reply.
“Could it be that I, an old man, would lie to you?”
Green Shadow Sword pretended to be dissatisfied. “Although I am an Emperor Weapon, I am not an omnipotent Emperor. I guess that this illusion array might have been set up by an ancient Emperor. An Emperor’s array is not easy to break.”
