BXBX NOVEL Chapter 864: Not Welcome?
Around the Core Tower were more than ten engravings of giant dragons, which coiled around the tower. They looked life-like and awe-inspiring.
The dragons’ facial expressions were ferocious, and it was as if they were looking down on the mortal creatures below.
Ye Chen could even sense an invisible pressure enveloping him that exuded coldness. It seemed that someone was warning him that any disrespectful actions would lead to certain death.
Even the blood dragon in his body felt something and roared angrily.
“It seems like the Core Tower is a divine artifact. I wonder what’s on the top level.”
Ye Chen looked around again and closed his eyes to sense his surroundings. Soon, he realized that there was an ancient formation around this place.
Although Ye Chen was quite skilled in terms of formation and talismans, he could not deduce what formation this was, nor could he find its formation core. In a sense, it was an almost perfect formation.
Breaking this formation would be wishful thinking for most experts.
The blood-red light of the formation spread out, and there were scarlet red runes swimming around the formation like dragons, exuding faint killing intent.
If anyone tried to barge in, they would be mercilessly destroyed by the formation, even if they were origin king or Daoyuan realm experts!
Luo Yao glanced at Ye Chen and noticed that he was finally showing a look of shock. She covered her mouth and giggled.
She coughed lightly, puffed out her chest and patted it proudly.
“Mr. Ye, this is my territory. If you have any needs, just tell me. I still have some say in this part of town.”
“When we arrive at the Luo family’s residence, we will have all sorts of cauldrons and medicinal herbs. It will be convenient for you to refine some ancient pills.”
“Now, I’ll take you to see my father! With your alchemy talent, you’ll be able to shock my father! However, my father’s temper isn’t very good, and he’s quite serious.”
Ye Chen nodded and did not say anything else. He had tried to communicate with the Samsara Graveyard, but Lin Qingxuan did not reply.
What he was most concerned about now was how to activate the remaining tombstones.
After all, the power of each ancient mighty expert was too powerful.
Although there were many alchemists here, there were also many martial arts experts. Moreover, their strength was much higher than outside, so he had to be careful.
“Mr. Ye, are you listening to me?” Luo Yao asked angrily. She realized that this guy was being rather absent-minded.
Ye Chen came to his senses and smiled. “Of course I heard you. Let’s go.”
Half an hour later, at the Luo family’s residence.
The residence had an antique feel and occupied a vast area.
The door was made of ancient black wood, and there was even a stone tablet erected at the top, upon which were written the words ‘Luo Family’.
There were four experts guarding the gate, their cultivation levels concealed, but from their auras, they had at least reached the origin realm, or perhaps even the origin king realm.
They stared at Ye Chen and the others from the Medical God sect. They could not understand why the young miss would bring these people here.
Other than an old man who seemed strong enough, the strength levels of the other people were insignificant.
“Young Miss, these people are…”
“Hmph!” Luo Yao snorted.” These are important guests of mine. Remember not to neglect them!”
The four guards were puzzled, but they still nodded and let the group pass.
They were only servants, and they could not offend the guests that the young miss had brought with her.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall of the Luo family was a little strange.
Luo Yao’s father, Luo Wuya, sat in the seat of authority with a woman standing beside him. This woman was Luo Wuya’s second wife, Miao Xianjun.
On Luo Wuya’s right sat a dignified middle-aged man, and beside him stood a devilish-looking youth.
The middle-aged man and the devilish youth were from the Cui family, an alchemy family.
The middle-aged man was the head of the Cui family, Cui Yuan, while the devilish-looking youth was Cui Yuan’s only son, Cui Ruicheng, who was a rare alchemy genius from the Core Tower.
The Cui family and the Luo family could be considered in-laws. After all, they had arranged a marriage during the previous generation.
They should be laughing and cheering, but in this situation Luo Wuya could not laugh at all!
Luo Yao had disappeared for many years, and no one knew where she went.
The Luo family had used all their methods to find her, but she was nowhere to be found. It made Luo Wuya furious!
Then, out of the blue, Luo Yao returned a few days ago, but then promptly disappeared again after only a few days!
She even took an elder of the Luo family with her…
This was simply infuriating!
Now that the Cui family had come to see Luo Yao, how was he going to explain himself?
He could only say that Luo Yao was not feeling well and rejected their request for the time being.
“Uncle, since Luo Yao isn’t feeling well, then father and I won’t disturb her. I’ve been refining the Ancient Black Jade Body Changing Pill for the past few days. If it’s successful, it can easily remove all illnesses and injuries.”
“Uncle, farewell!”
Cui Ruicheng cupped his hands.
Luo Wuya nodded and said embarrassedly, “Ruicheng, I’m really sorry. When Luo Yao’s body recovers a little, I’ll personally bring her over to apologize.”
He could not wait for the Cui family to leave.
However, before he could finish speaking, a clear voice rang out from beyond the door of the hall!
“Dad, I’m back! This time, I paid a huge price to bring Ye Chen back! Ye Chen’s Dao of Alchemy…”
The door was pushed open, and Luo Yao’s voice stopped abruptly.
Looking at the two people from the Cui family in front of her, her happy face turned extremely ugly.
However, Luo Wuya’s expression was even uglier!
He had just said that Luo Yao wasn’t feeling well, but this girl actually came over to ruin the whole charade! How embarrassing!
He was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Cui Yuan came back to his senses and looked at Luo Wuya. He said coldly, “Brother Luo, it seems like your daughter is fine! Moreover, she seems to be very lively!”
Luo Wuya wanted to explain, but Cui Yuan did not give him a chance. He grabbed Cui Ruicheng’s hand and said, “Ruicheng, let’s go!”
“Comparing women and alchemy, alchemy is undoubtedly more important! Ruicheng, from today onward, you will enter seclusion to comprehend the Dao of Alchemy. In a few days, you will once again attempt to break through to the next level of the Core Tower! It’s time to let some people know who are the true experts in this place!”
The father and son pair left immediately, brushing past Ye Chen and the others.
Cui Ruicheng looked deeply at Ye Chen, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Ye Chen rubbed his nose. He did not have any conflicts with the people from the Core Tower, right?
Why was there someone who wanted to kill him on their first meeting?
Without any hesitation, he stepped into the hall.
Luo Yao watched as the pair left. She then smiled and led Ye Chen forward.
“Dad, this is the Mr. Ye I told you about before, and that’s Sect Master Duan of the Medical God sect. The Medical God sect was a top-notch medical sect in ancient times. It could even be considered a branch of Senior Lin Qingxuan’s lineage. Its alchemy foundation is also extremely good…”
“Once Mr. Ye and the Medical God sect join our Luo Family, it will definitely be a blessing. Mr. Ye’s talent in alchemy is absolutely heaven-defying! At least…”
Before Luo Yao could finish speaking, a berating voice rang out, “Shut up!”
“Our Luo family is not a refugee camp, and it’s not like any Tom, Dick, or Harry can enter. These people can go back to where they came from! The Luo family doesn’t welcome them!”
It was obvious that Luo Wuya’s anger for the past few days had all been attributed to Ye Chen!
