Chapter 1441: Audacious Bet Chapter 1441: Audacious Bet Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation From the perspective of the Soul Race’s ancestor, death was not enough for Ye Chen. He had to be used as a sacrifice to the formation, and become nourishment for the soul dragon inside! When Ye Chen entered the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation, he would have the soul dragon in the forbidden area devour him so that he would not die easily at the hands of the puppet guardians or the man-eating black fishes! “Stop arguing already!” “Ye Chen, get ready as soon as possible!” “Old fellow, let’s sit down and rest.”  Beigong Hongtian tried to play the role of peacemaker. However, his efforts were suddenly interrupted by the appearance of a spatial fluctuation. The Soul Race ancestor and Beigong Hongtian looked at each other and saw the fear in each other’s eyes. Someone far stronger than them had arrived! Had the Myriad Swords Palace gotten wind of the situation and rushed here? However, the one who emerged from the spatial rift was a middle-aged woman in a luxurious robe. It was Venerable Immortal Ling Yun! She slowly descended onto the ground, and then glanced at Beigong Hongtian and the ancestor of the Soul Race and snorted, “The two of you are so afraid and worried about a kid from a low-level martial plane. Your behavior is a disgrace to the dignity and pride of Creation realm experts!” Beigong Hongtian laughed bitterly and pretended not to hear it, whereas the Soul Race’s ancestor continued to drink his tea and pretended not to hear anything as well. Since Venerable Immortal Ling Yun was far stronger than they were, it was best not to try to argue. They just had to suck it up! At this moment, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s gaze fell on Ye Chen. Their eyes met and the surroundings seemed to become much colder. “Ye Chen, there are very few people who can make me change my mind about things. I’d like to see how you’ll handle the Soul Race’s formation today!” “Of course, if you’re afraid, you can give up!” “After all, you came from that useless plane. Cowardice is part of your nature!” When the old man heard Ling Yun address Ye Shitian as Ye Chen, he suddenly thought of something and his eyes flashed. Swoosh! Ye Chen stood up and his cold eyes narrowed. “Why don’t we make a bet?” “What bet?” Venerable Immortal Ling Yun frowned and hesitated for a long time. “What tricks are you still trying to play when you’re about to die?” Ye Chen placed his hands behind his back and said leisurely, “Since you like the word ‘ant’ so much, I’ll grant you your wish. If I succeed in getting past the formation and obtaining the herb, I’ll call you an ant. How about it?” When Venerable Immortal Ling Yun heard this, she released her killing intent, which even made Beigong Hongtian and the Soul Race’s ancestor feel fearful! This was the killing intent of a true expert! In fact, as long as Ling Yun wanted to, she could instantly flatten this entire place! They looked at Ye Chen, their eyes filled with shock. Was this kid crazy? In the entire Lingwu Continent, Ye Chen was probably the only one who dared to propose something like this, let alone follow through with it. Before the two of them could react, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun retracted her killing intent and said, “Alright, but go in immediately!” Seconds later, a strong gust of wind blew Ye Chen’s body into the formation! After doing this, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun snorted coldly. She condensed a chair using her spiritual energy and sat down. Then, she used the spacetime powers to form an image projection to watch what was going on inside the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation.  Soon, Ye Chen’s figure appeared in the image projection. She drank her tea while waiting for Ye Chen to die inside Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation. After some time, she looked at the other two and said, “One of you is the head of a middle-tier family, and the other is an elder in a high-tier sect. Why are you afraid of this piece of trash?”  “To kill a lowly brat, you all went to such lengths. Simply laughable…” In fact, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun was trying to instigate these two into killing Ye Chen. Then, she could kill these two and tell her disciples that she had avenged Ye Chen. Unfortunately, Beigong Hongtian was wavering between two sides, and was basically a fence-sitter. It was almost impossible for him to make his own decisions or act on his own in this situation. On the other hand, the Soul Race’s ancestor was a low-ranking elder in the Hall of Souls. Five hundred years ago, after he was seriously injured, he had been recuperating and basically would not take action personally unless it was a matter of life and death. That was why he decided to allow Ye Chen to challenge the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation. “It’s good for him to challenge the formation. Senior Ling Yun, without my help, Ye Chen will never be able to get past the formation!” “In any case, I didn’t help him much. All I gave him was a fourth-grade demonic beast blood essence. Although Ye Chen’s talent is outstanding, he’s still going to die, so don’t worry too much!” “Senior Ling Yun, you’ve come all the way here, yet you’re still being so careful. This is really confusing.” “Could it be that there’s really someone behind Ye Chen other than the Myriad Swords Palace? A force that even Senior Ling Yun has to be careful of?” Beigong Hongtian was trying to fish for information.  “Beigong Hongtian, the fact that the Beigong family chose you to be its head is such a joke.” “The Beigong family has indeed been declining over the years, but it seems they’ve gone senile as well. Choosing someone like you as the head of the family is simply a waste of resources. One day, the Beigong family will be destroyed in your hands!” “Mark my words. Ten years from now, I might visit to see if my prediction has come true!” Beigong Hongtian was basically a mercenary. He would follow whoever was stronger! The most important thing was that he relied on the identity and status of the parties involved. Once he confirmed which side was stronger, and provided better benefits, he would immediately betray the other party without hesitation! Once his character became known, in a war between sects and families, the faction who would get targeted first in wars would be turncoats like this. No one felt safe entrusting their backs to someone who could backstab them at any given moment, and at the same time, many experts detested such behavior. This was why many people had called Beigong Hongtian narrow-minded and short-sighted! “Cough cough!” “No, no!” Beigong Hongtian smiled at her and said slowly, “I heard that the Blood Sword Sect’s Kui Ying is an expert who has reached the ninth level of the Dao Integration realm. He’s on the verge of breaking through to the Creation realm. Yet someone like that is offering a Dao Integration-grade artifact to kill Ye Chen. Why is that?” he asked cautiously. At the same time, the Soul Race’s ancestor turned his gaze to Venerable Immortal Ling Yun. He was also curious about this. With Kui Ying’s status, putting a bounty on someone like Ye Chen made it obvious how important Ye Chen was, and how much the Blood Sword Sect hated him.
