nChapter 247: Traces of the Evil Cultivator

nTranslator: 549690339

nTwo thousand miles in the Endless Mountain Range, in a natural basin.

nLooking at the newly built place for the training of the True Qi, the Prince of Deshun could not help but ask,””Yang ‘er, in less than half a year, you’ve already built such a grand palace?”

nIt was no wonder that the Commandery Prince of De Shun was surprised. In the basin, a magnificent palace rose from the ground.

nAround the palace, there was also a Grade 7 Spirit Receiving Formation and a Grade 7 Breath Exterminating Formation.

nThese two arrays had their own uses. The Spirit Receiving Array could absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and help martial artists break through better.

nAs for the Breath-ceasing Formation, it could isolate the aura here and ensure that this place would not be discovered.

nThese two array formations were both constructed by Ling You.

nOf course, what surprised the Deshun Commandery Prince was not the array, but the palace. In just half a year, such a magnificent palace was built, which was really shocking.

nHearing this, Yang Chen smiled and explained,” Master, you don’t know. This palace is just an empty shelf. It’s empty inside. There are no inner rooms.””

n“Even if we were to build an empty shelf, it wouldn’t be so fast.

nOne had to know that in order for the wall to be able to support the roof of the palace, it would take a certain amount of time to ensure that the gray water would solidify.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.

nThe so-called grey water was the cement of this world.

nThe effect was better than in Yang Chen’s previous life, and the stickiness was also better, but the solidifying time was longer than in his previous life.

nChen Yang was not in a hurry to explain after hearing the words of the Deshun Commandery Prince. Instead, he brought the Deshun Commandery Prince to the palace.

nPushing open the palace door, what greeted his eyes were pillars that were two meters thick.

n“This, this is…” The Commandery Prince of Deshun looked at Chen Yang in confusion. Why were there so many decorative pillars inside?

n” I didn’t use the walls to bear the weight,” Yang Chen explained.” Instead, 1 chose to use the pillars made from these ancient trees to bear the weight.””

n“With the pillars of the ancient tree bearing the weight, the wall naturally doesn’t need to be completely solidified.”

n“Moreover, by covering the pillar with a layer of grey water, it can also slow down the speed at which the ancient tree is corroded, ensuring that it can be used for a long time.”

nYang Chen used the framework structure from his previous life to build this palace. Since there were two-meter-thick ancient trees everywhere, the construction time was greatly reduced.

nHearing Chen Yang’s explanation, the Deshun Prince nodded his head in a half-baked manner.” You have a lot of ideas.”

nForget it, I’m only here to cultivate in seclusion. I don’t care what weight this hall uses.”

nHearing this, Chen Yang also handed some Spiritual Crystals to the Prince of Deshun, helping him gather 1,000 pieces.

n“Master, cultivate peacefully. There are people from my Chen family guarding outside. Nothing will happen.

nMaster, after you break through, I still want to go deeper into the Endless Mountain Range to make a fortune.”Yang Chen smiled.

nHearing this, Zhou Tianli took a deep breath and nodded heavily.” Don’t worry, 1 will definitely succeed!”

nThese words seemed to be said to Yang Chen, but also seemed to be said to himself.

nChen Yang immediately left the palace and left it to the Duke of Deshun to prepare for his breakthrough.

nAt the same time, Yang Chen also sent out a group of Piercing Guards to guard the palace. If anything happened, they had to report back immediately.

nIn order to ensure that no accidents would happen, Chen Yang had specially let the Fourth Elder stay here.

nWith the Fourth Elder’s strength at the fifth level of Meridian Unsealing, coupled with his demon general-level Natal subdued beast, it was not a problem for him to take care of the situation.

nAfter all, with his strength, it would not be a problem for him to chase away a demon general level demon beast with the Piercing Guard.

nAfter receiving the order from the Demon Emperor, the Demon Venerable did not dare to attack the place where the Chen family flag was planted.

nIf he really attacked, Yang Chen could use this opportunity to extort the flood dragon demon emperor.

nAlthough Zhou Tianli might be able to break through, the Spiritual Crystals he extorted were enough for him to break through twice. Zhou Tianli was naturally very willing.

nOf course, it was just a thought.

nFlood Dragon Demon Emperor had absolute control over the Demon Venerables in his territory.

nOtherwise, he wouldn’t have made an alliance agreement with the royal family’s ancestor to ensure that he wouldn’t invade Da Qian.

nBack to the main topic.

nAfter settling the matters in the basin, Yang Chen returned to the Chen Family. He took care of the Chen Family’s affairs while waiting for the news from the Qian Dragon Guards.

nHowever, there was news that the Piercing Guard had come instead of the Firmament Dragon Guard.

n“Shadow Guest, what’s the matter?”

nSeeing the worry on Chen Ying’s face, Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask.

nWhen Chen Ying heard this, he took a deep breath and slowly said,””Patriarch, according to the Piercing Guard of Zuoling County, a city in Zuoling County has been slaughtered.”

n“Massacre a city?”

nChen Yang’s expression turned cold,” Which faction is it? How dare they do such a thing? They completely disregarded the agreement between the factions and massacred the entire city.””

nAccording to the ancient system, when two forces fought, no one would choose to massacre the city.

nAlthough this rule wasn’t written in the clan oath, it was an unspoken rule.

nIf any force did not comply, they would definitely be despised or even surrounded by other forces.

nZuoling County had long been seen as a place protected by the Chen family. Now that some forces were massacring the city, it was a slap to the Chen family’s face.

nHearing Yang Chen’s question, Chen Ying took a deep breath and slowly said,””It’s not that force, but the evil cultivators.”

n“Sorcerers?”

nYang Chen frowned.” Are you sure?”

n“I can confirm that according to the report from the Piercing Guard, the corpses of the commoners in the city all have remnants of the aura of evil cultivators.”

n“And all men and women under the age of 18 have disappeared.

nAccording to this subordinate’s estimation, they should have been kidnapped. Those who matched their age would be refined into Heaven and Earth Qi, and those who did not match their age would be killed after they grew up.”Chen Ying said with an ugly expression.

n“Damn it!”

nAfter cursing, Yang Chen asked,””Does the Sun family of Zuo Ling know about this?”

n“The Sun family of Zuo Ling has already received the news. If this subordinate’s estimation is correct, it won’t be long before the Sun family of Zuo Ling arrives at Chen City.”Chen Ying said.

nHearing this, Yang Chen waved his hand,” You leave first. Send the Piercing Guards to investigate the city and see if they can find any clues.”

n“As for how to deal with it, let’s wait for the Sun family from Zuo Ling to come.”

n“Yes.”

nChen Ying cupped his hands and left the meeting hall.

nAfter Chen Ying left, Yang Chen held his chin and fell into deep thought.

nWas this matter related to the royal family’s ancestor?

nIn Da Qian, the only person who could confirm that he was related to the evil cultivators was the royal family’s ancestor. Could it really be the royal family’s ancestor?

nNo, that shouldn’t be possible. The old ancestor of the royal family clearly needed strong men who were twenty years old, and the Piercing Guard had reported that only commoners under the age of eighteen had been taken away.

nBut what if, what if it was really the royal family’s ancestor?

nIf it was really done by the royal family’s ancestor, what was the reason?

nWas he going to nurture them for his own use, or was he going to do business with other Evil Sects?
