Chapter 1748 - 1051: I Really Want to See—You Can’t Stop Me

Yin Li hesitated for a moment, only then realizing that Sui Yi was referencing the previous incident about face-touching.

However, speaking of face-touching...

She instinctively touched the mask on her face, suddenly saying, "The Imperial Crown can command me to remove the mask... my face might provide you with some information..."

It seems this face is rather special...

Sui Yi crossed his arms, his expression bright, and suddenly smiled.

"Even if you wear a mask, if I truly wish to see, it would be useless."

Yin Li didn’t initially think much of it, but Sui Yi’s smile felt oddly familiar, suddenly reminding her of the time she changed clothes at her residence...

"Can the Imperial Crown penetrate vision?"

"Yes," Sui Yi admitted openly.

Yin Li’s gaze turned a bit bizarre... She inadvertently stepped back a few paces.

Uh...

"Don’t worry, I’ve never used penetrative vision without permission..."

"....."

Could anyone even permit such a thing?

Yin Li remained silent.

To know the origin of this mysterious bloodline, the best way would be from the Ape Queen, but how could such matters be disclosed to others?

Even if Sui Yi asked, people wouldn’t want to reveal it, and it’d be easy to make up some excuses, wouldn’t it?

Besides, this bloodline currently doesn’t seem to hold much importance, making it difficult to inquire.

——————

A group of people began eating hot pot, a lively affair, but every lively banquet must come to an end.

Once all the guests had left, Sui Yi sat in the living room sipping tea. Li Luo and four others naturally stayed, along with Yan Jingan and Shi Feixuan, who hadn’t left either.

This was the team.

After handling all matters, they all sat on the sofa, looking at Sui Yi.

They were awaiting the next steps.

"The topic we’re about to discuss is confidential. Disclosing even a bit beyond our group is not allowed, nor is it suitable to let the people from the Dragon Ape headquarters know, to prevent implicating a world war."

Hmm?

Sounds very serious.

The atmosphere grew more solemn.

Sui Yi flipped his palm, revealing a wheel shaped by secret scripts, spinning and presenting an image.

It was Gu Sansi.

Behind Gu Sansi was a mine, mineral stones visible everywhere.

"The Blast Stone investigation has concluded. I’ve gone in to survey, avoiding some mechanisms, only barely unraveling the suspense of the front part mechanism due to my insufficient power. Afraid to trigger mechanisms, I must wait for you.... This is a relic I’ve discovered... Take a look."

Gu Sansi didn’t fail to notice the extra unfamiliar faces on Sui Yi’s side. Normally, she would have teased, but now she’s pressed for time and not in the mood.

She turned the screen towards the relic, and Yan Jingan and others naturally couldn’t understand it, only feeling the relic seemed to be a tomb, rather old and ancient.

Li Luo and others knew Gu Sansi’s team was out for treasure hunting, finding a tomb seemed out of place.

But Sui Yi’s expression suddenly changed, becoming exceptionally grave, with a hint of strain, eventually settling into calmness.

His finger tapping the table... moments later, she said, "This is a tomb... but also a battlefield relic."

Only then did everyone notice numerous bones on the perimeter, mostly broken, clearly having suffered great destructive forces in life.

"These skeletons appear to be Cloud Ascendant Level..."

The stronger the strength, the more it manifests physically, especially in the bones.

Thus, examining bones can reveal a person’s true cultivation level.

So many Cloud Ascendants!

Such a large battle is unprecedented in Dragon Ape history, except...

"That battle of the Mountain-Knocking Guest..."

Yan Jingan softly stated.

"The battle back then, people nowadays can somewhat discern was orchestrated by Mountain-Knocking Guest Tai Yuan’s conspiracy. Most died, very few survived, the Twin Emperors being among them. They obtained both real and fake Arrows of the Witch Emperor. But both were created by Mountain-Knocking Guest Tai Yuan, unable to awaken the true Arrow of the Witch Emperor. Thus, they separated it, using the strong essence of the Dragon Ape World to nurture it, and over time, the true Arrow of the Witch Emperor would awaken its spiritual power slightly..."

Yan Jingan realized, "No wonder the Dragon Queen mentioned the Dragon Emperor’s cultivation has been somewhat constrained over the years, as if something was draining his essence... Originally, the Ape Emperor was similar, but his progress accelerated later on... Initially, the Ape Emperor was slightly inferior to the Dragon Emperor, only equalling him recently, causing the conflict between the two factions to reach a peak in recent years..."

Indeed, Tai Yuan was terrifying, his schemes led so many powerful beings to their deaths, yet the survivors also became his pawns.

"Why did he attract so many to the tomb for a battle, by chance? If by chance, why harm those people? If not, then the purpose must have been in the tomb, whose tomb is it?"

Yan Jingan, rooted deeply in the Dragon Ape, immediately pointed out the key points upon seeing the relic.

"Whether by chance, we must personally inspect.... I’m informing you of this matter merely to mental prepare you, so if something arises soon, you won’t be totally unaware."

Everyone seemed reassured upon hearing this.

Likely, Sui Yi already has suspicions and plans in mind...

"I’ll go take a look tomorrow, but you must not act..."

To ensure the illusion that Sui Yi is still in Purple Sky?

Everyone was suddenly enlightened.

Late at night, Sui Yi left her residence and arrived at the cliff top of No.1 High School...

She already saw Jhiang Chenyu in a black robe.

Not far away, Du Meng was meditating cross-legged, expressionless, like a black stone statue...

——————

Jhiang Chenyu saw Sui Yi approaching and slightly tilted her head.

Sui Yi, in simple white attire, landed gracefully, the mountain wind fierce, her robe fluttering, appearing ethereal under the moonlight.

Jhiang Chenyu looked at her, unlike her usual restraint, there was a hint of magnetism.

"It seems you still look best in white,"

Sui Yi paused, saying, "I thought you would remember the past, filled with resentment towards me."

"I hate you... Have I said these words before?"

Sui Yi remained silent.

Jhiang Chenyu looked down, her expression calm, "If I tell you that I personally destroyed Medicine King Valley, would you believe me?"

Sui Yi’s expression didn’t change, but her gaze slightly intensified.

Hands clasped behind her back, facing the moon.

"Is it related to him?"

"Half yes, half no,"

Jhiang Chenyu looked at the clouds and mist below the mountain, speaking lightly, "This time I’m here, not for the Shura, nor for God’s Jasper, but in search of a sword, yet it’s not the Mind Sacrifice one."

It’s.....

"Jinghuang?"

Jun Yuqing’s saber.

Not exactly a peerless divine sword, yet the only sword he was commended for in his youth.

Within the Imperial family, it’s not considered a fine artifact, yet he carried it for many years, and ultimately this sword killed the previous Emperor.

Patricide.

Sui Yi’s fingers twitched, her expression somewhat obscure.

"I now think of him less and less, even if I do, it’s more tranquil; do you think this is good or bad?"

Jhiang Chenyu turned around, looking at her eyes pitch-black, yet there was rare sorrow.

"Good..."

"The best end of love is forgetting"

Jhiang Chenyu lowered her eyes, "I met you this time to cooperate with you... His sword and the majority of Shen Zhiyue’s saber fragments fell in the Dragon Ape land back then. I have investigated the historical records, and the first Dragon Ape Emperor is most likely to have obtained them, because he was born from the World Fragment, understood the recent cataclysmic war, and naturally sensed their existence, so possibly collected them, as treasures, and later the Primordial Dragon Ape Emperor’s tomb was erased from records, seemingly intentionally wiped, and when the contemporary Dragon Ape Emperor died, there was also a massive funeral sacrifice, insiders all died, leaving later generations unable to investigate, and naturally no one found this tomb’s location... But, except for the Mountain-Knocking Guest Tai Yuan, he found this tomb, but due to the destruction of the Main World, he as the origin of the Primordial line also suffered from the destruction influence, power diminished, unable to break open the tomb, thus designed a plot leading later Dragon Ape masters there... But the result was everyone died, he still failed"

The result of failure is that the tomb remained intact, sealed away.

Helplessly, he took another approach...

Jhiang Chenyu revealed these secrets, and Sui Yi did not hide, talking about the matters of Rose Jade World.

Jhiang Chenyu was somewhat surprised, deeply looking at Sui Yi, "So I say, it’s destined for you to find them.... However, that place was first found by him, are you not afraid your people will be detected by him, directly killed to silence, or used to threaten you..."

Sui Yi smiled slightly, "Don’t underestimate Sansi, when she went there with me we sensed, and did not detect any surveillance... Perhaps it can be understood this way, Tai Yuan is also not omnipotent, fearing close contact with the Divine Race and Shura, afraid of being traced and exposed, revealing the tomb, hence after the battle in those years, never went back..."

Jhiang Chenyu nodded, thus it’s plausible, a tomb so significant, and the Dimensional Realm and Three Realms Origin each sending people to investigate, those capable and resourceful, how many are staying in Dragon Ape without leaving?

If anyone glimpses even a fraction, those two forces’ armies would arrive... And if they do, the impact would be startling.

At that time, even with Tai Yuan’s Heavenly Venerate Level strength, he couldn’t safeguard that tomb, and besides, the Divine Race and Shura differ, their power has no limits, fully capable of opening that tomb.

Jhiang Chenyu glanced at Sui Yi, "You know what’s inside, yet you’re not in a rush, seemingly not simply intending to take them, unless...."

Sui Yi looked at her, "If we were to collaborate, could it include dealing with Shura and Tai Yuan together?"

Jhiang Chenyu, always smart, couldn’t help realizing Sui Yi’s meaning, her deep gaze had a touch of radiance.

"I’ve said before, I only want the sword"

Sui Yi curled her lips.

"Only goals, no stance then"

Jhiang Chenyu’s eyes flashed, looking into the distance, suddenly saying, "The Salamander was devoured by me... He left his racial legacy to his successor... I think now the severely injured Tai Yuan is definitely seeking that successor... You should go check it out"

Sui Yi smiled, white light flew like a shuttle....

Jhiang Chenyu watched the white light vanish before her eyes, Du Meng appeared behind her.

"If I hadn’t encountered Jun Yuqing, how great would it be..."

She lowered her head, her eyes turning pitch-black again, looking down only to see her intact hand starting to turn blue-black.

It won’t be long before it begins to rot.

This is also her fate.
