Chapter 15: Secret Past
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving the unknown area, Qi Chen found a small valley and let Liu Fuxue rest.
After a night of fleeing, Liu Fuxue’s mental state had already been stretched to the limit. Now that she had relaxed, a deep sense of exhaustion constantly invaded her brain.
There was also a clear pool in the valley. When Liu Fuxue saw the pool, her eyes immediately lit up.
Most girls liked cleanliness, and Liu Fuxue was no exception.
After running in the forest for an entire night, her body was extremely dirty. Now that she saw the pool and there was no danger around, she naturally had to clean herself up.
She took off her clothes and stretched out her jade-like feet to test the temperature of the water before soaking her body in the water that had a few fallen leaves floating on it. Her black hair floated on the water surface, forming a mesmerizing net.
The pond water washed away the mud on Liu Fuxue’s body, revealing skin that was fairer than snow.
This young lady had quite a good figure. She had curves in the right places.
In front of Qi Chen, her enchanting figure was completely revealed.
“Aiya, do you not know shame?”
The other party took off her clothes without a word, making Qi Chen unable to stand it anymore. He was about to turn around and leave when Liu Fuxue reached out and grabbed him, pressing him against her voluptuous twin peaks.
“Little Tiger Egg, your body is dirty too. You need to wash it properly.”
Liu Fuxue scooped up some water and wiped Qi Chen’s body.
“…”
Qi Chen was speechless and could not help but roll his eyes.
I’m just an egg, how dirty can I be?
After Liu Fuxue showered, she went to sleep. When she woke up, it was already afternoon.
Liu Fuxue has almost recovered. She has the ability to go out with me. It’s time to send her back to a town where humans live.
Qi Chen saw that Liu Fuxue had regained some vitality and made a decision in his heart.
They had just walked out of the valley when a strong wind blew.
Qi Chen’s body trembled, instinctively sensing danger.
[Prompt: Eight hundred meters behind, one Second Realm level-one mutated beast has appeared!]
[Prompt: A Second Realm level-one mutated beast is approaching quickly. Please take note to hide!]
Second Realm?
Qi Chen panicked.
Regardless of whether it was a human or a demon beast, they would reach the Second Realm after reaching level ten.
Experts who had reached the Second Realm all possessed the ability to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and could gather spiritual energy within their bodies.
It was no exaggeration to say that a casual palm strike from a Second Realm expert could kill an existence below level-ten.
I’m not afraid. He’s definitely not here to look for me. After all, I can’t afford to provoke a big shot like him!
Qi Chen thought to himself. He was just about to lead Liu Fuxue away when a person flew over from the sky.
Walking in the air was the best proof of a Second Realm expert.
“Second Aunt!”
Liu Fuxue was surprised.
Qi Chen: ???
Suddenly, he remembered something.
The night the Liu family was destroyed, he heard the conversation between the two killers in the kitchen.
The mastermind who wanted to kill the Liu family seemed to be an elder of the Liu Clan.
Could this woman be the elder of the Liu Clan…
Qi Chen gulped.
“Xue’er, it’s a good thing that you have the jade pendant I gave you. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to find you.”
That person landed in the forest. Seeing that Liu Fuxue was fine, she let out a long sigh of relief.
Then, her gaze landed on Qi Chen who was standing beside Liu Fuxue.
Her eyes were cold.
Liu Fuxue saw that something was wrong with her second aunt’s expression and quickly explained, “Second Aunt, it’s all thanks to Little Tiger Egg that you can still see me alive!”
“A monster egg that hasn’t broken out of its shell has the ability to protect you in this Dark Forest?”
Second Aunt was surprised, but the hostility in her eyes had already disappeared.
So she can’t see through my strength.
This thought flashed across Qi Chen’s mind.
“Little Tiger Egg is very powerful. He protected me in a strange place until now. However, those assassins and bandits robbed the Liu family and many of them died…”
The girl’s voice was choked with tears.
Qi Chen was unmoved. He was still wary of this woman.
It was very likely that this person was the elder who ordered the massacre of the Liu family. He had to be on guard.
After hearing Liu Fuxue’s explanation, the curiosity in Second Aunt’s eyes was covered by sadness.
“Did your parents give an unknown token to Liu Xinchang?”
Second Aunt sighed softly and voiced out her doubts.
“No! My parents handed it up to the Liu Clan! Second Aunt, did Elder Liu Xingchang take that token away?!”
When Liu Fuxue heard Second Aunt’s words, she felt that something was wrong.
“Liu Xingchang has betrayed the Liu family. He killed all the younger generations of the Liu Clan that were with him.”
Second Aunt said coldly, “Unfortunately, he escaped too quickly and didn’t notice that someone was still breathing. That person sent a message back to the Liu Clan before he died.”
“What?!”
Liu Fuxue and Qi Chen were both shocked.
What exactly was that token that could make Liu Xingchang take such a huge risk to slaughter the entire Liu family?
Second Aunt looked at Liu Fuxue and Qi Chen before slowly speaking of a complicated past.
“The origin of that token involves a matter from ten thousand years ago.”
“Ten thousand years ago, at the peak of the dragon race, there was a dragon king who wanted to break through the restrictions of this world and head to the Heavenly Realm of the legends. He used his power to open the Heavenly Gate alone, but he was defeated by those gods. The dragon died here.”
“When he died, he gathered all his strength and created this forest, causing his soul to dissipate. This Dark Forest is the tomb of that dragon king, and it is also his inheritance ground!”
“However, after tens of millions of years passed, no one was able to open the land of inheritance. As time passed, this matter became a legend that people spoke of.”
“However, people only know that this is the land of inheritance. They don’t know that opening this place requires a token to open it!”
“Token?”
Liu Fuxue and Qi Chen were both shocked. Liu Fuxue hurriedly said, “Second Aunt, you’re saying that the token that my father gave to the Liu Clan is the token to open the land of inheritance?”
“That’s right. This token has appeared more than once in tens of millions of years. Every time it appears, it would cause a storm of blood, but it would disappear in the end. As for the strange thing you mentioned, if I’m not wrong, it should be the periphery of the dragon king’s mausoleum.”
Speaking up to this point, Second Aunt let out a faint sigh and said, “Liu Xingchang, why are you doing this? How can the dragon king, who can open the Heavenly Gate for all living beings in the world and fight against the gods of High Heavens alone, be so petty? Why would he choose a successor based on a token?”
“Second Aunt, what do you mean?”
Liu Fuxue understood what her second aunt meant. She still could not believe it.
“That token is merely the key to opening the land of inheritance.. Once the inheritance is activated, all living things in the world can enter!”
