Chapter 678 Retreat
Looking at Zhuge Yongning, Ye Chen had a wry smile on his face, but did not nod in agreement.
Zhuge Yongning's brows suddenly frowned. He was the most beloved heir of the Sword King of All Domains, and no one had ever dared to disobey him like this. Even if he decided to temporarily spare the lives of Ye Chen and the others because of Hong Fu,
But if Ye Chen doesn't know what's going on, he can only change his mind.
"Young Master's kindness, I should have accepted it. But..."
Ye Chen sighed, as if the bitterness in his heart could no longer be hidden, and said softly: "Unfortunately, in order to save Miss Hongfu, the three of us have suffered fatal injuries. Although it is now somewhat stable, there is only less than a hundred thousand years left.
Lifespan... Even if we want to serve the Young Master, I’m afraid we won’t have the chance.”
"What?"
Zhuge Yongning was moved, and even the servant behind him who was at the Principle Source Realm was shocked and doubtful.
They really couldn't believe Ye Chen's words. After all, according to Ye Chen and the others, they only rescued Hongfu because they didn't want to offend Hongchenzhai and Wanyu Sword King, so there was no need to risk their lives.
However, when the Principle Source Realm servant found out his thoughts and gained insight into the situation inside Ye Chen's body, he could no longer doubt Ye Chen.
"Sir, what he said is true."
The Principle Source Realm servant secretly conveyed the message to Zhuge Yongning, and his heart was actually complicated.
He could understand Ye Chen's bitterness. He had no background and no power. When he encountered certain things, he had to do it even if he had to work hard, even going against his own heart.
And all of this is just in exchange for a glimmer of hope.
It can be said that in the vast chaos, there are countless creatures like Ye Chen and the others, and perhaps such creatures are dying every moment.
Even these servants, who seem to be following Zhuge Yongning and are feared by countless creatures, can be destroyed at any time, often just because of a wrong word.
In real terms, their situation is not much better than that of Ye Chen and the others.
Of course, Ye Chen and the others all have less than 100,000 years left to live. If they are more careful, they may still be able to live longer than Ye Chen and the others.
"A lifespan of one hundred thousand years..."
Zhuge Yongning murmured, and the last bit of unhappiness in his heart disappeared in an instant.
Although he was a playboy and did not take ordinary creatures into consideration, Ye Chen and the others were always injured because of Hong Fu. Under such circumstances, it was really hard for him to blame Ye Chen and the others.
As for finding a way to treat the injuries of Ye Chen and the others and extend the lives of Ye Chen and the others, although Zhuge Yongning could do it, he had no such idea.
The reason is very simple. He still despises Ye Chen and the others from the bottom of his heart. Even accepting Ye Chen and the others as slaves is not sincere, but it is just inconvenient to kill them directly.
What's more important is that even in the vast chaos, even if the Sword King of the Ten Thousand Realms is powerful, life-extending items are still very important, and treasures that can heal certain avenue injuries cannot be wasted so casually.
For Zhuge Yongning, using it on Ye Chen and the others is simply a waste!
Besides, it's only a hundred thousand years. For a being of Zhuge Yongning's level, it's almost a blink of an eye.
He didn't want to see Ye Chen and the others survive. Letting Ye Chen and the others live for another hundred thousand years would save him from taking action and avoid complications.
"Please forgive me, sir."
Ye Chen spoke again, and as soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Yongning waved his hand and walked straight out.
Outside the palace, Zhuge Yongning was still a little uneasy, so he asked the Principle Source Realm servant beside him to secretly take action, but the result was exactly the same as what Ye Chen said. He had no doubts in his heart and was too lazy to pay attention anymore.
Ye Chen and three others.
After a while, Zhuge Yongning and his party had rested in a nearby palace. Ye Chen and the other two gathered together again, with a faint smile on everyone's face.
"Although what we got this time is not much, it is enough for us to retreat."
Ye Chen flicked his hand, and a source of energy flew in front of Bai Jian.
At first, he wanted to use the White Sword to resolve the subsequent crisis, but after Zhuge Yongning's incident, his thoughts changed slightly and he decided not to care about what happened in the Chaos Abyss.
"Thank you!"
Bai Jian understood what Ye Chen meant, and instead of rejecting Daoyuan, he immediately put it away.
With the Principle Source, his cultivation level will be able to break through quickly, and his goal this time can be considered achieved.
As for the matter being targeted by Zhuge Yongning, Bai Jian cannot solve it for the time being. Even the matter of having only one hundred thousand years of life left was brought up by Ye Chen. He can only continue to follow Ye Chen and watch every step.
One hundred thousand years may not seem like a long time, but only Ye Chen and the others understand that this is the limit of the time they can currently gain.
"I still have use for this thing, so I'll give you the Godly Boat first!"
Ye Chen nodded gently, then turned to look at Pangu beside him.
Among the three of them, only Bai Jian is still in the semi-Path Source realm and needs a suitable Principle Source. Both he and Pangu are already in the Principle Source realm, so logically speaking, neither of them can use the Principle Source.
However, he has embarked on the path of pure power after all. If he wants to break through in the future, he can only keep accumulating strength. Naturally, he cannot miss the remaining source of power in his hand.
In addition, the Divine Walking Boat is also a good treasure. Even if it is not as good as Zhuge Yongning's Divine Walking Boat, it will still have many uses for them in the future.
"Are we really going to retreat next?"
Pangu frowned, not because he was dissatisfied with Ye Chen's distribution plan, but because he was in seclusion in the Red Dust Studio, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
You must know that they secretly instigated the relationship between Zhuge Yongning and Hongchenzhai. Although it is only a preliminary plan at present, the truth will one day be revealed.
When that time comes, even though there are only three people left in Hongchenzhai, we can still easily capture them and make them unable to survive or die.
"We must retreat! Our reason is that we don't have enough life span, so it is natural for us to retreat desperately. Only when they make trouble can we have a chance to leave."
Ye Chen solemnly responded that they could not afford to offend Hongchen Zhai, let alone the Sword King of Ten Thousand Realms. In this case, the only thing they could do was to weaken their sense of existence as much as possible, and then find an opportunity to escape.
This is not only the only way, but also a helpless move.
"Then go into seclusion!"
Pangu sighed. As soon as he walked out of the Ten Thousand Gods Mountain, he encountered one powerless thing after another, which really made him feel uncomfortable.
