Ye Sheng’s expression was calm. He knew that ye Hong was very powerful and a genius. He also knew that ye Hong was very strange and seemed to have a unique background.

But so what?

He wanted to kill ye Hong. No matter how talented or powerful the other party was, Ye Sheng would kill him.

“But I feel that you are even more talented than ye Hong.”The old man suddenly said to Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng smiled. “Why do you think so?”

“Because you’ve drunk with me before and have a taste for me. I’ve studied your growth path and it’s very good. You’ve already possessed such strength in just a few short years. If I give you some more time, you’ll definitely surpass ye Hong,”the old man said.

“But now I just don’t have much time,”ye Sheng muttered.

He knew that once the news of the southwest region spread out, he would instantly kill four people at the eleventh level of the emptiness realm with one sword strike. Ye Hong would definitely target him and force ye Sheng to return to Xianyang personally. When that time came, Ye Sheng would face ye Hong directly.

This was something that Ye Sheng was very certain of.

Therefore, he was very anxious now. In the past, ye Hong had left him alone because he looked down on Ye Sheng. Coupled with the fact that he was busy with other matters, he had left Ye Sheng alone. When he was free, he would take care of him as well.

However, ye Hong didn’t expect that Ye Sheng was actually so terrifying and powerful. In a short period of time, he had crossed so many realms and was directly behind him.

If Ye Sheng was in ye Hong’s shoes, he wouldn’t have given himself any time. He would surely kill Ye Sheng as soon as possible to prevent any future trouble.

Ye Sheng was very anxious.

He needed time.

Or to put it another way, he needed opportunity, he needed a large amount of energy, and he needed treasures to improve himself.

So long as he broke through once more and reached the sixth level of the emptiness realm, Ye Sheng wouldn’t dare say that he’d beaten ye Hong, but it wouldn’t be a problem for him to do his utmost to protect his life.

If he broke through to the seventh level of the emptiness realm, Ye Sheng would have the hope to fight head-on with Ye Sheng.

That was why ye Sheng had asked the old man.

“I know of a place that is a treasure guarded by the members of the longevity tribe, but that place can not be opened now, and neither can you enter,”the old man said after thinking for a moment.

Ye Sheng closed his eyes. If the members of the longevity tribe wanted to open the Pure Land, they would still need a key on him. There had been no news from him until now, so it was obvious that it was impossible for him to do so in the short term.

“Oh right, there is a place that might be helpful to you.”The old man suddenly remembered and said seriously.

“What Place?”Ye Sheng’s eyes lit up. He sat down with the old man and looked at him.

“The aether void, a very mysterious place. No one knows the exact location. I heard it from Old Xuanwu,”the old man said.

“The aether void, what is this place?”Ye Sheng asked with a frown. He had never heard of it.

“The aether void contains the greatest secret of this world. Once you obtain it, you will definitely ascend in perfect condition. Old Xuanwu has been searching for it, but there has been no news for 20,000 years, so I think you will not be able to find it either,”the old man said regretfully.

Ye Sheng smiled bitterly and said, “Others have been searching for 20,000 years but still haven’t found it. How can I find it in such a short period of time?”

“Little brother, you are already very powerful now. When you meet ye Hong, hide for a while. When you break through and become stronger, you can face him head-on,”the old man persuaded Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng nodded. If there was no opportunity, he would indeed have to hide from ye Hong’s anger.

“Of course, I still owe you a favor. If ye Hong wants to make a move against you, I can help you this time,”the old man said after thinking carefully.

“Really?”Ye Sheng said in surprise and was indescribably pleasantly surprised. With an expert at the 12th level of the emptiness realm who had lived for 3,000 years backing him up, he wouldn’t be worried anymore.

“Since our temperaments are so compatible, we naturally have to help you. Don’t worry, as long as you need my help, we’ll spread the word. I’ll be in the Central Plains for the next period of time. When I hear the news, I’ll definitely rush over to help you,”the old man said with a smile.

Ye Sheng said seriously, “Thank you, Old Man.”

“It’s nothing. I haven’t made a move in many years, and my hands are itchy too.”The old man waved his hand and said. His eyes became deep as he looked at the sunset slowly falling from the horizon.

“Little brother, I’m leaving. We’ll meet again if fate permits. If you need me, spread the word.”The old man stood up, patted his body, and said.

“Have a safe journey,”Ye Sheng said indifferently.

The old man waved his hand and flew away in a carefree manner.

Ye Sheng sat there and looked at the sunset. It was very beautiful. Suddenly, he said, “The sunset represents the end of the day. Doesn’t this look like ye Hong?”

The Void Demon King appeared out of nowhere and said, “Yes, ye Hong is such a sunset. And you are the rising sun. Killing him is just around the corner.”

Ye Sheng laughed out loud and said, “Killing ye Hong will allow me to enter the void with all my heart.”

“That goes without saying. Ye Hong Must Die,”the Void Demon King said fiercely. It really hoped that Ye Sheng would enter the void as soon as possible so that it could escape from this world.

..

Chu Zhongtian was drunk for an entire day and night. When he woke up, Ye Sheng and the Void Demon King had already bid farewell to the qilin.

“Where’s Ye Sheng?”Chu Zhongtian asked.

“They left yesterday. You were drunk,”qilin replied.

“How embarrassing.”Chu Zhongtian’s old face turned red. When he recalled, he felt extremely embarrassed.

“Where are we going next?”Qilin asked Chu Zhongtian.

“Where are we going?”Chu Zhongtian thought carefully. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said, “I’ll bring you to meet that old fellow. You’re the wife I’ve decided on. You must go and meet that old fellow.”

The sword-wielding old man’s grave was in the grassland. Chu Zhongtian had said that he would bring the most important woman in his life back to meet the sword-wielding old man. Now that he had this woman, he naturally had to go back.

Qilin naturally had no objections. He said, “I’ll go wherever you go.”

“Hahaha, let’s go. After meeting the old man, we’ll go look for Ye Sheng. He’ll probably face ye Hong directly from now on. As brothers, we naturally have to help him.”Chu Zhongtian knew that as ye Sheng’s strength gradually increased.., the conflict with ye Hong was about to erupt.

“Alright.”Qilin smiled slightly and nodded his head in agreement.

..

Ye Sheng and the void demon king were walking in the southwest region. They didn’t leave immediately. The four great divine beasts here were already gone. The True Dragon was killed, the Phoenix Nirvana was easily ambushed by Ye Sheng, and qilin surrendered himself to Chu Zhongtian.., the black tortoise was taken away by the old black tortoise, and Mu Bai was also killed by Ye Sheng using the heavenly tribulation. It could be said that there was nothing worth remembering.

However, Ye Sheng had yet to leave. There was one thing he had yet to complete.

“Who are you looking for?”The Void Demon King asked.

“Bai Ling ‘ER, return the treasure that belongs to her,”Ye Sheng said indifferently.

Back then, when they had barged into the heavenly demon Sacred Land’s treasure vault together, Bai Ling ‘ER had obtained a treasure. Later on, because she was being investigated, she had placed it on Ye Sheng. Now that the heavenly demon sacred land had been destroyed, Ye Sheng naturally had to return it to her.

Ye Sheng was a person who knew good from evil. If it was someone else’s property, he had to return it to them.
