Ye Chen did not need to explain. Even if he explained, no one would believe him.
When everything was done, this secret would definitely be known by the world.
On that day, perhaps everyone in the Kunlun Mountains would be so shocked that their jaws would drop.
Ji Lin suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, “Oh no, I forgot about the most important matter! We must hurry to Qingxuan Peak!”
Ye Chen frowned and asked in surprise, “You’re going to Qingxuan Peak too?”
“Wait, you’re going there too?”
Ji Lin blinked and suddenly thought of something.
“I heard from my sister that the Medical G.o.d sect is a part of Lin Qingxuan’s lineage. Could it be that you’re going to Qingxuan Peak to seek the supreme path of medicine?”
“You only stayed in the Medical G.o.d sect for a few years, but you’ve been studying martial arts all day long. I reckon your medical skills aren’t that good either.”
Ye Chen was too lazy to explain and nodded. “I guess so.”
“Go, go, go. Since it’s on the way, that’s for the best. I will protect you. With me around, no one can touch you.”
“Oh right, Ye s.h.i.tian might have taken action because of me. He probably took a fancy to my sister’s beauty and came to curry favor with me.”
“Ye Chen, look. Actually, you were saved because of me! There’s no need to thank me though!”
Ye Chen was speechless.
The two of them mounted their horses and headed towards Qingxuan Peak.
Qingxuan Peak towered into the clouds and was extremely steep. The top of the peak was hidden, like the abode of immortals.
Halfway up the mountain, their mounts could no longer proceed, so they continued on foot.
An hour later, the two of them finally arrived at the top of Qingxuan Peak. There, they paused and waited, as there was a protection formation guarding the entrance.
Runes flowed around the protection formation, which seemed to be glaring at Ye Chen and Ji Lin.
Ji Lin looked at Ye Chen.
“Don’t you know how to use formations? Let’s see if you can break this formation. Otherwise, we won’t be able to get in.”
Ye Chen nodded and closed his eyes, trying to detect the location of the formation core.
There were only two ways to break the formation.
First, his strength would have to surpa.s.s the formation by a large margin, which would allow him to break it by force. Second, he had to find the formation core and destroy it.
However, soon, Ye Chen’s expression froze.
His spiritual sense entered it and actually disappeared. He was unable to detect the formation core!
This was actually an extremely powerful formation, and it might even have existed since ancient times!
Otherwise, Qingxuan Peak would not have survived so many years.
Could it be that Lin Qingxuan had set up this formation to protect his descendants before a disaster happened?
Ye Chen’s mind entered the Samsara Graveyard, wanting to find Lin Qingxuan, but he found that the other party was completely silent.
It was unknown if he was in seclusion or had disappeared.
Ji Lin saw Ye Chen’s reaction and shook her head.
“I originally thought that your mastery of formations was very formidable, but now it seems that it’s only so-so.”
“Forget it, I’ll give it a try.”
Ye Chen looked at Ji Lin and asked curiously, “You know about formations?”
Ji Lin smiled. Seconds later, she took out a green sword, and her aura reached its peak as she unleashed a terrifying attack toward the formation.
“If you don’t know anything about formations, just split them open!”
Ji Lin’s attack directly collided with the formation, creating ripples.
At the same time, a scarlet light suddenly appeared, and an ice-cold killing intent appeared, and an attack shot out from the formation toward Ji Lin.
Ji Lin had not expected this formation to be able to retaliate.
Before she could react, a gust of wind swept past her as Ye Chen grabbed her and pulled her to the side.
A deep sword scar appeared where she once stood.
Ji Lin exhaled. He glanced at Ye Chen and said, “Thank you. I saved you today, and now you’ve saved me. We’re even now.”
Ye Chen was speechless.
At this moment, more than a dozen figures surged out from inside. Clearly, Ji Lin’s attack had triggered the alarm inside.
“Who dares to touch Qingxuan Peak’s formation? You’re courting death!”
The one who spoke was a man in plain clothes with his hands behind his back.
The man did not have any weapons, but his eyes were cold.
His gaze turned to Ye Chen, who naturally became the target of his suspicion.
“Did you do it?”
Seeing that someone had come out, Ji Lin hurriedly stepped forward and said seriously, “h.e.l.lo, I’m Ji Lin of the Ji family. I’ve been entrusted by the Ji family to invite one of Lin Qingxuan’s descendants to make a trip to the Ji family! Please!”
The man looked at Ji Lin. When he saw that it was a little girl, he sneered, “No treatment. Get lost.”
These three simple words expressed his att.i.tude.
Ji Lin’s expression changed. Naturally, she was unwilling to give up and continued, “Whatever you want, the Ji family can give it to you! State your conditions.”
The man’s expression suddenly became serious as he said, “My words were very clear. Get lost! Although your Ji family has some power in the Kunlun Mountains, it does not matter to us. If you don’t get lost now, don’t blame me for being merciless.”
Ji Lin almost exploded in anger. She had never been treated this way before!
Her Ji family was not a small family in the Kunlun Mountains!
Suddenly, she thought of something.
There must be a reason for this group of people’s att.i.tude, and that was that the conditions were not satisfactory. Without hesitation, the golden pill appeared in Ji Lin’s hand.
As soon as the golden pill appeared, the spiritual energy from the surroundings surged into it, and a dense medicinal fragrance spread out.
The man and everyone behind him gasped.
They had grown up in Qingxuan Peak and received training in the path of medicine. Therefore, their understanding of medicinal pills and medical arts was incomparable.
The aura of the medicinal pill in front of them was extremely dense, and it was extraordinary.
The man was somewhat moved and said, “Give me this pill, and I will naturally consider it.”
Ji Lin naturally would not give it to him casually and said, “I want an accurate answer, and this pill can only be given to Lin Qingxuan’s true descendants!”
However, the man took this as a challenge to his authority. He snorted coldly, “I’m Lin Qingxuan’s descendant. If you need me to help, give me this pill. You have no right to negotiate.”
“If you’re unwilling, I won’t be on the losing end.”
At this moment, Ji Lin wavered.
Her father was in danger and only the people of Qingxuan Peak could save him. She had to bring a descendant of Lin Qingxuan back with her.
She gritted her teeth and handed the pill over without hesitation.
The man’s eyes were burning with pa.s.sion, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
Everyone in Qingxuan Peak was Lin Qingxuan’s descendant. Moreover, he had promised to help, but he had not promised to save the person.
Obtaining an ancient medicinal pill for no reason, this deal was too profitable!
Furthermore, he had already sensed the strength of these two people after Ji Lin attacked the formation, so there was no need to be afraid.
Just as he was about to take the golden pill from Ji Lin’s hand, Ye Chen, who was beside him, grabbed Ji Lin’s wrist and pulled it back.
“I think we should forget about it,” his indifferent voice rang out.
Ji Lin was stunned and looked at Ye Chen curiously.
“Ye Chen, what are you doing?”
