Chapter 468
Chu Yunsheng did not know how Xiang Wenxi died. He did not detect any energy movements nor did he feel the spiritual force. He was not even able to react in time. However, Xiang Wenxi indeed died under his eyes.
‘What kind of ability is this?’ Chu Yunsheng was extremely alert. It had been a very long time since the last time he had this type of pressure. It was as if there was a pair of cold eyes staring silently at him in the dark. It made him extremely uncomfortable.
However, he would not be scared away by it. Since it had already progressed to this point, if the people in the dark really wanted to attack him, they would have already done it. And since they didn’t attack him, there was no difference between leaving and staying. Besides, he didn’t even know the real power of the people that were hiding in the dark, and where they were hiding. So where could he go even if he wanted to run away?
Of course, there was another possibility as well. It was that the people in the dark couldn’t do anything to him.
Then he thought about the woman that Xiang Wenxi had talked about before he died. Of course, he did not think that it was that woman, who killed him. If she had that kind of power, she wouldn’t have waited until today. And in terms of the people that were hiding in the dark, even Chu Yunsheng also couldn’t detect their existence. So there was no way that they would be locked up by Xiang Wenxi.
However, even though Chu Yunsheng thought that it was not done by that woman, it definitely had something to do with her. Otherwise, Xiang Wenxi would not be killed when he mentioned her to him.
It could also mean that it had something to do with him as well. Because he was killed when he mentioned the woman to him, not to someone else.
After being threatened by Chu Yunsheng, the assistant officer Xiao Li was forced to take Chu Yunsheng to the secret chamber that was hidden deep inside the fortress.
He had tried to ask the assistant officer Xiao Li before. However, Xiao Li didn’t know anything about this woman.
“Hmmm. You really don’t know who I am,” the woman suddenly smiled.
“My surname is Yuan. My full name is Yuan Xuejian. I am the daughter of a small fortress master,” she slightly shifted her attention towards the campfire and said slowly.
“Everything started from that day. The day when one person suddenly showed up at our fortress and told my father that his master – the young master of Chu Clan – took a fancy to me. They wanted to send me to Chu Clan. Although my parents were reluctant. They didn’t dare to refuse. Eventually, I had to go with them. However, on the way, they encountered the people from Yun sect… I have heard that they are fighting each other over the world leader position…”
“What’s your mother’s surname? How old are you?” Chu Yunsheng suddenly interrupted her and asked.
“Zhang. And I’m 21 years old,” Yuan Xuejian looked at the old man in confusion. She didn’t know why he wanted to know this.
Chu Yunsheng was staring into her eyes for a long time before he let out a sigh of disappointment.
“You can carry on,” he asked uninterestedly while looking at the campfire.
Yuan Xuejian began to feel that the old man in front of her was even more strange. But she still carried on, “they are fighting over the world leader position.”
“The world leader?” Chu Yunsheng was confused. After twenty years, all the forces on Earth finally united?
Yuan Xuejian nodded her head and said, “since The Cultivation Propagator disappeared, rumor has it that only the world leader will be able to inherit the complete Will of Cambrian!”
