Chapter 1114: Chapter 586: She’s Actually My Cousin! (Part 2)

“Second Uncle, rest assured, I understand.”

Chen Huaiyi approached Chen Yuan and, with a wave of his hand, a table appeared in the void, with a pot of spiritual wine atop it. He sat down slowly, and said solemnly:

“You always act with purpose. This time, you killed Guan Hai but didn’t leave, instead you waited for the strong ones of Liangshan to come. There must be a reason that you can’t leave. If I’m not mistaken, it’s likely because of the primordial crystal veins, right?”

“Correct, that’s the reason.”

Chen Yuan wasn’t surprised that Chen Huaiyi knew about the primordial crystal veins because Mo Bai had already mentioned it before.

Blood Sword Sect was initially close to Liangshan, but later for some reason, they connected with the people from Seven Killings Hall, and the primordial crystal veins affair must be clear.

“Discovered?”

“Discovered, right in the Black Blood Mountain Range.”

“Very well, in fact, Seven Killings Hall is also eyeing this vein. Once the people from Liangshan find the primordial crystal veins, Seven Killings Hall will start to compete for it. Now that it falls into your hands, it’s good; leave Seven Killings Hall to me, no one will target you.”

“Thank you, Second Uncle.”

“We are family, there’s no need to thank. But you need to be cautious of Liangshan, it isn’t that simple.” Chen Huaiyi’s gaze was rather serious.

“What secrets are there? In fact, upon recognizing you as my uncle today, I had a thought, we could join forces to wipe out Liangshan; I can summon a Yang God True Monarch.”

Chen Yuan said very earnestly.

If Seven Killings Hall assists, then attacking Liangshan wouldn’t be a problem. The accumulation inside is bound to allow him to complete his initial accumulation in the shortest time.

He could also seize the Qi Fortune from Song Lun.

“Who can you summon?”

Chen Huaiyi’s gaze showed some suspicion.

He had long since speculated that Chen Yuan was extraordinary, with strong supporters behind him, or else he wouldn’t have reached this point or had the courage to wait here for Song Lun.

But judging from his tone, it seemed he could easily summon a True Monarch.

It was indeed somewhat surprising.

In years when immortals don’t appear, the Yang God True Monarchs are the pinnacle of power in the human world; each is formidable, with status that is unattainable. Yet, Chen Yuan had this confidence.

He investigated Chen Yuan but couldn’t see through the hidden secrets.

“I can’t tell Second Uncle before taking action because this matter is too significant, but it’s definitely not an ordinary True Monarch.” Chen Yuan shook his head, unwilling to say more.

“King of Beiliang Wei Jinfeng?”

Chen Huaiyi had heard of Chen Yuan’s desperate actions in Liangzhou, and it wasn’t impossible that he earned the appreciation of Wei Jinfeng.

“No, stop guessing, Second Uncle, you won’t guess it. Consider my earlier proposal.” Chen Yuan mysteriously smiled.

The title of Asura Demon Lord carries too much weight, ranking in the top five on the Supreme List; if exposed, the consequences would be hard to predict. If the court found out he was connected, it would basically mean exposure.

“This matter isn’t feasible.” Chen Huaiyi shook his head and continued solemnly:

“Do you know what force Liangshan is connected with?”

“Hmm?”

“Liangshan is backed by the Xiang Family.”

“The Xiang Family!”

Chen Yuan’s gaze tightened, revealing a hint of killing intent.

“Correct, otherwise do you think that within just a hundred years, Liangshan could gather so many strong ones with just a bit of reputation? Without the Xiang Family’s resource support, even if Song Lun is somewhat gifted, he couldn’t have broken through to Yang God so quickly.”

“I see.”

Chen Yuan seemed to realize something; Chen Huaiyi’s words solved his previous doubts. Originally, he was wondering what backed Liangshan; now it seems, it wasn’t simple indeed.

Chen Huaiyi’s eyes held some longing and reminiscence:

“Eight hundred years ago Great Chu, profound heritage, passed down from the then human world’s first Grand Ancestor Chu, once dominated the lands, northed the grasslands, annihilated demon clan tribes in the south, pacified overseas in the east, suppressed Spirit Mountain in the west.

A few hundred years ago, Great Chu was truly a Heavenly Dynasty, ruling over seas and mountains, far stronger than today’s Sima Family, with more than one immortal.

Even after its downfall, the secret realm and heritage taken away in advance still allowed the Xiang Family to recover Primordial Energy over two hundred years, making Liangshan grow to threaten Immortal Sects within a hundred years.

This is just Liangshan’s might; if you count the Xiang Family ever hidden in the shadows, if no immortals appear, this force almost halves the world with the Sima Family.”

“If you move against Liangshan, the Xiang Family’s true strength will manifest; otherwise, do you think Seven Killings Hall has always remained hidden and inactive? It’s because of fear of the power behind Liangshan.

They’ve just not fully investigated the Xiang Family yet.

Seven Killings Hall, as one of the ten Immortal Sects, nearly a thousand years of legacy, isn’t just the surface’s seven Yamas; secretly, they actually have some strength.”

“Are all ten Immortal Sects like this?”

“I don’t know about others; Seven Killings Hall is certainly so. The court doesn’t just have a few True Monarchs either; even excluding Wei Jinfeng and Nangong Lie, there are still some trump cards.

Previously, Taoist Divine Palace wreaked havoc in the Capital. The Asura True Monarch killed that royal True Monarch, who was the fourth son of the old villain Sima; before him, there were three more.

Although not all might become True Monarchs, there should still be at least one.”

Chen Huaiyi told Chen Yuan what he knew, hoping he could act cautiously, not be impulsive; even with True Monarchs backing him, one shouldn’t be arrogant.

The world is far from simple on the surface; only truly having witnessed the battle that led to Great Chu’s downfall can one understand the hidden secrets within.
