Chapter 564: Neptune Horn (1/2)
Everyone was very tense. Ye Chuan who was directly facing Octopus Empress however was calm without any change in his expression. He just looked at the Octopus Empress who was releasing string killing intent and indifferently said, “The restriction of Lost City gets weak once every one hundred years, Your Excellency Sea Emperor, if you wait for another one hundred years, naturally, another group of people will come, but, no one might necessarily be able to arrive here passing through many ancient grave worlds.”
Octopus Empress who was preparing to make a move suddenly stiffened.
Yes, there were countless ancient graves here and every ancient grave world had many treasures sealed within them. A hundred years later, even if people came in, who could resist the temptation of treasures and not break into those grave worlds? In the end, how many would be able to arrive here?
Octopus Empress remained silent, but her killing intent gradually dispersed.
Even Qing Tianhou and State Teacher Jiang Tunsheng, these two super experts, were trapped in the sixth grave’s Reincarnation World. Looking from this perspective, in the entire Wilderness World, there were not many people that would be able to arrive in this final seventh grave.
Ye Chuan secretly sighed in relief. Although he seemed to have acted recklessly, in fact, he had carefully considered everything and seized the weakness of this Octopus Empress. Like this, the latter didn’t dare to kill him easily.
Sure enough, everything went according to his expectation!
This Octopus Empress was very powerful, she was the existence that could summon winds and rain in the outside world as she pleased, unfortunately, the ancient restrictions and rune chains had trapped her in this ancient grave world. No matter how powerful she was, she needed the help of other people to gather the remaining fragments of Lost City. Although the cultivation of Ye Chuan was not up to much, even inferior to Qing Tianhou and Jiang Tunsheng, among the numerous experts that broke in this time, he was already outstanding. In terms of cultivation level, he was no match for some powerful overseas loose cultivators, but in terms of experience, wits and courage, he was far above everyone. This point could be seen from how Plague Archfiend and Diamond Ape King, these two half Sage realm experts, were sincerely following him.
The ancient restriction would become loose once every one hundred years, but she might not necessarily encounter the right candidate even after waiting for thousands of years!
The expression of Octopus Empress changed repeatedly as she hesitated to make the decision. She was naturally unwilling to release Zhu Sijia and Tuoba Xiaoniao just like this. Without a hostage with value, how could she control Ye Chuan? But, she was also reluctant to kill Ye Chuan. No one knew better than her how hard it was to find a suitable candidate. In this ancient grave world, she had been bitterly waiting for countless years, she couldn’t wait to go out and breathe the fresh air outside. If she missed this opportunity, then she might never get another chance to go out throughout her life.
“Your Excellency Sea Emperor, let them go, I am not afraid of becoming your hostage, what are you afraid of?” Ye Chuan took a step forward again, leaving only the distance of seven steps between them.
Fight or not fight?
Looking at inattentive and hesitating Octopus Empress, Ye Chuan also hesitated, but he circulated eleven Heaven Swallowing Talismans within his body, preparing to make a move!
If he made a surprise attack now, it was possible to save Tuoba Xiaoniao and Zhu Sijia, but there was a bigger possibility that his attack would fail, then, all of them would face the wrath of this Octopus Empress.
After considering for a moment, Ye Chuan secretly sighed and his killing intent gradually dispersed.
He was never afraid of taking risks, but, he would also never take meaningless risks. When the probability of success was too low, forcibly making a move might attract greater disaster.
“Boy, since you are so sensible and somewhat know yourself, I will let them go.”
Octopus Empress released Zhu Sijia and Tuoba Xiaoniao with a smile yet not a smile. Then, extended a tentacle towards Ye Chuan.
She had already sensed Ye Chuan secretly preparing to attack. If Ye Chuan had made the move, then there was only one consequence. No one would leave alive from this ancient grave world. Fortunately, although Ye Chuan was daring, he was sensible.
