Can't Afford to Offend My Scheming Disciple

20. The Trial V

Translator: Alanese Fantasy

“You surely know if I am telling the truth.”

Murong Chi rose to his feet and cast a spell to get himself clean. “If we seek for different goals, we’d better split up. Anyone wants to go with me?”

The other disciples looked at Liu Xia and then at Murong Chi. In the end, only two people left the group, standing behind Murong Chi.

Murong Chi had reached the ninth-level of Foundation Establishment, only one step away from Core Formation while Liu Xia was only in the fifth-level of the same period. Who was stronger? The answer was quite obvious to everyone.

Liu Xia didn’t blame the two disciples. People had their own choices; one could not impose his or her opinion on others.

Having thought the three guys had walked away, Liu Xia looked like she had made some major decisions and said, “Let’s go. Don’t forget that we come here to take the trial.”

“But Senior Brother Nan had…” A female disciple beside her hesitated.

“I believe in him,” said Liu Xia, looking at the direction they had come before.

They left a mark there and walked towards the depth of the mystery land.

In the meantime, Nan Chen was also running to the very center of the mystery land.

The level of the spiritual beasts along the way became higher and higher and Nan Chen found it more difficult to cope with them.

He arrived at the front of a waterfall. A cave could be indistinctly seen, and it could be easily ignored by people if not being watched carefully.

Nan Chen looked at the waterfall. In his last life, he had come here ten years later. He had discovered Zhuo Hua’s secret at the age of eighteen, and then had been hunted down by him for eight years solid.

He had had no choice but to sneak into the mystery land with disciples of other Sects when it was opened again.

Cultivators above Core Formation had been barred from entering the mystery land, so Zhuo Hua could do nothing with Nan Chen as long as he had been in the mystery land.

To Nan Chen’s surprise, Zhuo Hua spread a rumor that he had illegally practiced demonic power and had become a demonic cultivator. Zhuo Hua even had ordered all the disciples of Muyang Temple to enter the mystery land in order to chase and kill Nan Chen.

Nan Chen had been badly injured, hiding in this cave in a hurry. And it had been the thing that he had come across in this cave had gave him power to confront Zhuo Hua.

Nan Chen stopped from thinking about the past life. He went through the waterfall and entered the cave. It was not big and could accommodate dozens of or a hundred people.

A stone, the only ornament, was in the center of the cave. Nan Chen looked at it and walked to the stone before pressing his hand on it. He pushed a little harder, and the stone was moved to one side.

When the stone was moved away, a series of steps to the underground space could be seen. The steps were covered with dark cyan mosses. Obviously, it had been deserted for a long time.

Nan Chen walked along the stairs and caught sight of a vast underground palace. Tens of thousands of candles were hung on the walls and seemed that they would not burn down forever. The candles might be made of melt fat scraped from mermaids.

A Mermaid Candle could be sky-high in the market outside and there should have placed tens of thousands of them. The more terrifying thing was the revenge from mermaids. Thus, it could be seen how powerful the owner of this underground palace was.

In the center of the palace, someone seemed to sit there. Nan Chen knew that was a dead Mighty Person. In front of him was a box with his relics which represented all his wisdom and cultivation.

In the Cultivation World, not everyone could be able to become an immortal. Unless a cultivator went through the Deity Transformation, he or she definitely would be faced with death one day. In order not to get looted after death, some Mighty Persons would find an obscure place before they drew their last breath in the hope that their body could be found by someone special enough and then their relics would be passed to the lucky one.

Nan Chen had gained the mighty cultivation and improved his own strength rapidly in his last life. Therefore, he could be powerful enough to fight with Zhuo Hua.

Nan Chen went forward. The moment he saw the face of the dead person, he was so shocked, “It’s you!”

The man opened his eyes which had been closed the last moment. Nan Chen was really stunned because this man looked identical to Zhuo Hua!

Zhuo Hua sneered at him, “You’d never think of this, wouldn’t you? Nan Chen, as I have said, you would never get away from me.”

Nan Chen fiercely drew out his sword, pointing it at Zhuo Hua. However, Zhuo Hua just gave him a disdainful look.

“Are you sure you want to use Forget All to fight against me?” Zhuo Hua reached out his hand with the palm facing the sword. The next moment, Forget All showed up in Zhuo Hua’s hand.

Nan Chen looked at his palm with a dejected look. Forget All was the birthday gift this man had given to him, while now it was sneered by him.

‘I really can’t get away from him?’

The eyes of Nan Chen gradually were stained with crimson.
