Chapter 4254: The Trap Appears
Editor: Henyee Translations
This middle-aged man was an assassin from the Battle God Palace.
From the way he moved, it could be seen. After all, Ling Han had also stayed in the Battle God Palace for a period of time. For better or worse, he was still a seed.
At this time, another two men ran over. One was a middle-aged man, who was incredibly tough, and the other was a young boy. His face was filled with childishness, yet carried an expression of arrogance.
“Little Han!” the two of them called out through divine sense.
Ling Han nodded. This was the little azure dragon and the large black dog.
“Very well, Ling Han, are you walking right into a trap?” A person said balefully, striding towards Ling Han.
Imperial Son, Lin Yun.
This was a member of the Silver Generation, and he had already advanced into the Fifth Form. His strength was unimaginable.
Ling Han smiled faintly. He had grasped the Star Steps, so what did he have to fear?
“Old Black, Four-Legged Snake, prepare to run,” he said through divine sense.
“Why did you reveal your identity? Otherwise, we could have taken advantage of the crisis,” the large black dog said in defiance.
“That’s right,” the little azure dragon also said. They hid their identities very well, and didn’t need to worry about being discovered at all. Moreover, a large number of Evolution Fruits were about to appear, and it was time to make a fortune.
Ling Han shook his head, and said, “I think there’s a trap in this matter. Don’t be blinded by greed.”
“Ling Han!” Lin Yun shouted loudly. He was filled with fury. Ling Han actually dared to ignore him.
“Yes, yes, yes. I’m not deaf, so I heard very clearly,” Ling Han finally replied.
“You’re seeking death!” Lin Yun was just about to make a move, but right at this moment, he heard a round of cheers, causing him to stop abruptly.
What was going on?
“The restriction has been lifted.” Cheers surged out like a flood.
Lin Yun faltered for a moment, then humphed coldly, “Consider yourself lucky.”
In comparison, it was the Evolution Fruit that was more important. It was related to whether he could quickly break through to the sixth form, or even had hopes of breaking through to the seventh form in fact.
If he could reach the Seventh Form, he would be able to shorten the gap between himself and the Golden Generation, and if he could take another step further, and reach the Eighth Form, then he would not be inferior to the Golden Generation at all.
Thus, the Evolution Fruit was incredibly important in his eyes. In fact, he could even temporarily spare Ling Han for this.
The Imperial Sons all rushed into the mountain cave, especially the Silver Generation. Their status had been awkward for a long time, and they were more eager to change this than anyone else.
Ling Han didn’t move. In fact, he even pressed down on the little azure dragon and the large black dog.
“What did you sense?” Chi Menghan walked over gracefully, her figure graceful and captivating.
The silver-haired little lolita and Chi Dao were both here, yet they were actually able to restrain themselves and not rush into the mountain cave at the first instant. This was truly a rare sight.
Ling Han pondered for a moment, before saying, “It’s dangerous.”
“Dangerous?” Chi Dao scratched his head, “There are so many Imperial Clan elites gathered here. Who dares to touch us?”
This action was equivalent to offending all the Imperial Clans. One after another, Saints would charge over with Imperial Weapons in their hands. Who in the world could withstand this?
“I don’t know. It’s just an instinctive feeling,” Ling Han said.
“Brother-in-law, when did you become a woman?” the silver-haired little lolita shouted.
“Little girl, it’s not only women that have instincts,” the large black dog said in an experienced manner.
“Prepare to retreat. I keep feeling that this place is filled with killing intent,” Ling Han said.
“Hahaha, what powerful instincts. As expected of the legendary prodigy that can match the Golden Generation.” A voice suddenly rang out, and there was even the sound of applause.
Who was it?
Ling Han and the others all turned around, only to see a group of people walking over from outside the valley.
There were not many, only nine, and the person in the lead was an elder. He had white brows and a white beard, and his aura was not apparent. It was unknown whether he was strong or weak, but the eight people behind him… there was no shortage of Sect Master-level elites!
Hiss, wasn’t this place forbidding cultivators above the True Self Tier from entering? Why were there suddenly four Sect Masters, three Spirit Transformation True Lords, and only one of them was at the True Self Tier. He looked to be in his early twenties, and his flame of life was flourishing.
“Dongfang Clan Leader!” Chi Menghan said. She bowed slightly to the white-browed elder as a token of respect.
This was natural. She was the Imperial Daughter, so who would be worthy of such respects from her?
Ling Han was astonished. This elder was actually the clan leader of the Dongfang Clan?
No wonder they could enter. The Island of the Sky had always been under their control, so they definitely had a way to enter.
The question was, why?
The white-browed elder was called Dongfang Bai, and he was a Venerate Tier-level great elite. He had already lived for over 90,000 years, and theoretically speaking, he wasn’t far from reaching the end of his lifespan. It was possible that he would die at any moment.
He smiled faintly, and said, “I heard that Donglin Imperial Clan’s prized daughter is exquisitely beautiful. You are indeed graceful and enchanting.”
Chi Menghuan couldn’t help but frown. ‘You’re a senior, so it’s inappropriate for you to say such things in front of me.’
“The news of the Hundred Flowers Valley was spread by you guys, right?” Ling Han asked directly.
Dongfang Bai’s gaze shifted to Ling Han, and he showed a hint of surprise. However, he nodded decisively, “That’s right.”
“Why?” Ling Han asked.
“Well, that’s a long story,” Dongfang Bai said with a smile.
“There’s still a lot of time. Senior, why don’t you explain slowly?” Ling Han also smiled, “I can tell that Senior has prepared for this for a very, very long time. Now that the matter is about to be settled, if you don’t share it with others, wouldn’t that be too boring?”
“Haha, young man, you’re quite interesting. It’s a pity to kill such an interesting person,” Dongfang Bai said with a smile.
Chi Menghan couldn’t help but feel anxious. The Dongfang Clan had really planted killing intent?
She couldn’t help but say, “Dongfang Clan Leader, don’t forget how many Imperial Clan clansmen are here. Don’t bring a fatal disaster to the Dongfang Clan!”
“Little girl, are you threatening me?” Dongfang Bai shook his head, and said, “That young man is right. I’ve already planned for far too long for today. If I don’t share this with others, my sense of accomplishment will truly be greatly reduced.”
He began to speak.
“This Island of the Sky was discovered by our Dongfang Clan in the first place, but we couldn’t hide it for many years before it was discovered.”
“Hoho, at that time, all the Imperial Clans fought over this island, but no one noticed that the one who was most injured was our Dongfang Clan! A fire broke out at the city gates, bringing disaster to the bystanders!”
“You guys have finished fighting, but our Dongfang Clan has also suffered heavy casualties!”
“In the end, you all lightly threw down a few words, and had our Dongfang Clan continue to manage the Island of the Sky, yet did not even ask how many members of our Dongfang Clan had died for this matter.”
“You Imperial Clans are noble and dignified, so how could you possibly care?”
“Haha, well said. The Island of the Sky is still managed by our Dongfang Clan, but in truth, from now onwards, the many generations of descendants of the Dongfang Clan have all become your gardeners and servants.”
“We… are naturally unwilling to accept this!”
“You people have only roughly examined the Island of the Sky, so how can you compare to us, who have lived here for generations?”
“Our elders from the previous generations discovered a rare treasure in this place.”
“Natural-born Stone Spirit!”
