Chapter 1717 Xue Hanlin
Chapter 1717: Xue Hanlin Chapter 1717: Xue Hanlin Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation “Release me now, or you will die!” “I, Xue Hanlin, am not someone that lowly ants like you can mess with!” Xue Hanlin was completely fearless! Ye Chen glanced at Xue Hanlin. This fellow was a weirdo who did not understand the situation at all. “I want to see how tough your bones are then!” Ye Chen sneered. He took out a sword and slashed the man’s calf. Puchi! Xue Hanlin’s bones broke with a crack, and he let out a miserable scream. Fortunately, there was some distance between them and the Blood Soul Clan’s base camp. Otherwise, his shouts would have attracted the attention of the Blood Soul Clan’s experts. Ye Chen struck with his sword again and again, and in less than fifteen minutes, Xue Hanlin could no longer hold on. “Stop it! Stop hitting me! I’ll tell you everything you want to know!” Ye Chen initially thought that Xue Hanlin was a tough nut to crack, but who knew that he could not even last an hour? “How many people from the Blood Soul Clan came through the passageway this time? How many Creation realm experts are there?” Xue Hanlin looked at Ye Chen timidly and said, “This time, the leader is Lord Xue Zhen. He’s a third-level Creation realm expert. There are thirty peak-level Dao Integration realm experts, a thousand other Dao Integration realm experts, and three thousand Primordial Chaos realm cultivators!” Ye Chen frowned when he heard Xue Hanlin’s words. There were more people than he had expected. One third-level Creation realm expert was already troublesome enough, but now there were also thirty peak-level Dao Integration realm experts. At this moment, there were probably only a dozen or so peak-level Dao Integration realm experts from the various forces in the Demon Saint Secret Realm. Therefore, even if they gathered everyone, they would suffer heavy losses in battle. “You’d better join our Blood Soul Clan. It’s better to become our puppets than to die!” As soon as Xue Hanlin finished speaking, Ye Chen’s sword flashed and smacked his face with the flat end of the sword. Pa! Xue Hanlin felt dizzy and saw stars, after which he became completely obedient and did not dare to say anything. Ye Chen thought to himself, ‘Surrender and become a puppet? Hell no!’ However, with the strength of the Slaughter Sect, even if the other major forces attacked together, not many would survive the resulting battle. Ye Chen looked at Xue Hanlin and continued to ask some questions. This time, when the sealed passageway opened, Xue Zhen and a group of clansmen were the first to wake up and step out. Following that, as the energy of the Lingwu Continent surged into the passageway, the other sealed experts would wake up one after another. This was bad news for the Lingwu Continent. They did not have time to waste. At this moment, the Demon Saint Secret Realm was the most dangerous place. Once a middle-stage or late-stage Creation realm expert emerged from the passageway, they were all doomed. “Sir, if you want to leave, I have a way,” Xue Hanlin said. He knew that his life was in Ye Chen’s hands. Whether or not he could survive depended on Ye Chen’s whim! “If you really have a way, I can spare your life!” Ye Chen could easily kill these weaker Blood Soul Clansmen, but letting one off was not a big deal. “The Blood Soul Clan has a secret technique that can allow you to possess the aura of the Blood Soul Clan for a short period of time. You might be able to fool the others.” After Xue Hanlin finished speaking, Ye Chen did not say anything. It was indeed a good idea to disguise himself as a member of the Blood Soul Clan and enter the exit. However, if he was discovered, he would have no chance of escaping the encirclement within the Blood Soul Clan’s base camp. Ye Chen thought about it for an hour. In the end, he gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk. They did not have much time left. The longer they stayed, the more dangerous it would be. “Does this secret technique have any side effects? Is there a time limit?” “Sir, the secret technique has no side effects. It only has an hour-long limit,” Xue Hanlin said with a fawning expression. As for the matter of betraying the Blood Soul Clan? He tossed the matter to the back of his mind. The most important thing now was to survive! “One hour,” Ye Chen muttered. There was only an hour. Time was a little tight. If everything went smoothly, it would be enough, but if not… “Sir, the secret technique is here. Take a look at it for yourself.” Xue Hanlin also knew how to read people’s expressions. One look at Ye Chen’s expression told him that Ye Chen was tempted. Ye Chen took it and studied the secret technique. He found that there were no problems and it was easy to cultivate. He only needed half a day to master it! “Sir, look, I’ve already told you what you needed to know. Can you spare my life?” Ye Chen ignored Xue Hanlin and turned to leave. Xue Hanlin saw that Ye Chen was really going to let him go and let out a long sigh. His expression transformed from fear to coldness. The cultivation technique he gave Ye Chen was true, but Ye Chen had to survive first. Once he reported this to Lord Xue Zhen, Ye Chen would definitely die! However, just as Ye Chen’s figure disappeared, a light flashed, and a violent force shot into Xue Hanlin’s forehead! Xue Hanlin’s eyes widened as he pointed at Ye Chen. “I’m sorry, I don’t like to leave threats behind.” “Besides, you’re not dead. You’ll be my puppet for now. You’re still useful to me.” … Ye Chen brought Xue Hanlin, whose eyes were now empty, to the Slaughter Sect’s hideout. “Ye Chen, how was it? Did you find out anything?” “Who is this person?” At this moment, Liang Xue Yue walked over and stared at Ye Chen. It was not just her, but the Slaughter Sect members were all staring at him with anticipation. Ye Chen was the backbone of the sect, and everyone placed their hopes in him. “I’ve already gathered enough information. Even if we gather all the major forces and attack together, we’ll still suffer heavy casualties.” Ye Chen’s words made everyone’s expressions darken. Although they had come to the Demon Saint Secret Realm prepared to die, who would want to die if they could live? “You don’t have to despair. I’ve obtained a secret technique from the Blood Soul Clan. It allows us to temporarily possess the aura of a Blood Soul Clan member. However, there’s a time limit, which is an hour. If we’re lucky, we can make it.” “As for the guy beside me, he’s the key to our escape.” Ye Chen’s words brought great hope to everyone. As long as there was a chance of survival, they had to give it a shot no matter what. “Everyone, rest and recuperate first. We’ll set off when they fight!” What they could do now was to wait for the major forces to start fighting, which would give them the cover they needed to take action. Ye Chen and the others waited for a day. On this day, the forces of the western region gathered together and decided to charge out. They could not wait any longer, nor could they afford to waste time.
