“This is a chance!” Within the Nine Tribulations Space, the Sword Spirit said hurriedly, “Based on what I know, long ago when Li Clan took control of the north-west area, they realized that the surroundings were too cold and unfit for human habitation. Therefore, they proposed a shift…”
“However, before they could leave, they realized that, within the underground of the north-west region, there was a humongous mine of Purple Crystals. Therefore, the Li Clan changed their mind and decided to stay. This matter, even the rest of the Nine Super Clans do not know about it…”
The Sword Spirit added, “Li Clan spent a huge amount of effort before they finally adapted the north-west region into a place suitable for human habitation and established their clan here. The amount of effort spent was beyond estimation. However, after the Li Clan had established themselves here, when they started to extract the Purple Crystals mine, they realized that it could not be extracted at all!”
“Why couldn’t they do it?” Chu Yang asked in his consciousness.
“It’s because this huge Purple Crystal mine is enveloped by a peculiar metal. This metal has some similarity to the Zhuge Clan’s Mount Xingyun… It is indestructible even for a peak-level Ninth Grade Supreme Martial Artist! Therefore, after mining the normal Purple Crystals at the periphery, the Li Clan could only look at the core with a strong desire, but helpless to do anything about it!”
The Sword Spirit blinked his eyes and said, “I will only talk this much. The rest will be up to you.”
He believed strongly that with such a hint given, Chu Yang would definitely be able to think of some strategy to get himself out of this fix. The Sword Spirit was absolutely confident in Chu Yang…
Chu Yang shut his eyes and looked up into the sky as he let out a deep breath. He laughed bitterly and said, “Since we have come to this stage, it seems like I just have to reveal it.”
The Elder smiled gently. “Very well! You are a smart man. The kind of person that I like the most in my life.”
This gave the crowd a feeling that this middle-aged looking face must be his true appearance!
The eyes of the Elder flashed and he said, “You have the cultivation level of a Sword Supremacy, yet your face is unfamiliar to us.”
Chu Yang smiled bitterly. “I have never revealed myself in the martial world. Of course, I would look unfamiliar. However, in front of you, what would this kind of puny trick be able to achieve?”
Chu Yang sounded sincere and he lowered his own stature.
The Elder smiled gently as he stroked his beard. It was obvious that this apt compliment from Chu Yang had made the Elder really comfortable in his mind now.
“I am Li Tongtian; how do I address you, my little friend?” Li Tongtian spoke kindly.
“My poor name is not worth mentioning…” Chu Yang looked at his surroundings, somewhat embarrassed.
The surrounding thirty-forty people were still glaring at him. He had seriously injured Li Nanshan. It was unknown if Li Nanshan would survive from the injuries. So, how could these people not be angry?
Just like what Chu Yang had mentioned. With six elite experts beside him, there were no chances of Chu Yang escaping!
Secondly… It was not the time to fall out. If the Li Clan could find out how this person managed to take down the Wind Thunder Platform and managed to master this technique, the Li Clan would really have struck a big one!
To extract a confession by torturing… That was a bad plan. If the opponent was using a technique unique to himself and it would not take effect in a short time? Or if the opponent were to self-destruct…
There would really be no more hope left… if the opponent was killed or offended to the point of no reconciliation.
It was rare to see how the opponent was ‘reasonable and adaptable to current trends’ … Li Tongtian felt just like he had picked up a treasure.
The seven people flew off speedily, leaving behind forty over people still clenching their teeth. These people were furious but did not dare to say a word.
“Dare to enter?” Li Tongtian smiled gently.
“If I say no, can I leave?” Chu Yang smiled gently as he asked rhetorically.
“You can’t”
Li Tongtian also let out huge laughter. Suddenly, he realized that he was starting to admire this guy standing right in front of him. This guy was able to appreciate and adapt to the current affairs. A truly top-class character.
Li Tongtian signaled with his eyes and four Supreme Martial Artists immediately turned around to guard the four directions of North, South, East and West.
Within the tent, there were just two Sixth Grade Supreme Martial Artists.
“Great tea!” Chu Yang was full of praise for the tea, after just one sip of it.
“This tea was brewed within this wind and snow, using the tender shoots of the ice lotus. It’s unique to the north-west region. After consuming, it can get rid of the heaviness in you, strengthen your internal energy, improve cultivation, raise your spirit and consolidate your origin.” Li Tongtian smiled indifferently. “Even for me, within a year, I would only get half a kg of these from the clan.”
Judging from his words and tone, Chu Yang already understood his underlying meaning and replied, “I’m honored by your good graces toward me!”
Li Tongtian was not anxious. He talked about other unrelated matters and only after three cups of tea, did he go into the main topic. “My little friend, what you were talking about just now… it seems like you didn’t finish…”
Chu Yang muttered in his mind, ‘How is it that I didn’t finish it, I totally did not even start.’
Li Tongtian let out huge laughter. “Since our little friend had said this, I will promise you on behalf of the Li Clan. As long as you come clean about what you know, I will use my life and character to guarantee your safety!”
“My family name is… Zi [It has the same Chinese pronunciation as purple].” Chu Yang said it out profoundly. Chu Yang smiled and with a look of conceitedness and arrogance, he looked at Li Tongtian with high expectations and said, “Elder Li, you don’t need me to say anymore, right?”
Li Tongtian puckered his brows.
Chu Yang smiled as he mocked himself. “It’s normal that Elder Li had not heard of us before. After all, your clan does not reveal ourselves in the martial world. In recent years, our numbers dwindled even more and there is only one male person in each generation.”
Unable to restrain himself, Li Tongtian actually consoled Chu Yang as he said, “Brother Zi, do not blame yourself… Actually… *cough cough* In this Nine Heavens Continent, throughout the years, there are countless clans that once dominated a region but eventually ended up in dust… At least you are still left in your clan. Compared to those clans which became extinct, you are already fortunate.”
Right now, there was actually a person who claimed to be from the Purple Crystal Clan. Furthermore, this person could take down the Wind Thunder Platform with his meager strength?
Chu Yang’s sob was obviously ignored.
The two Supreme Martial Artists only had one thought in their minds. ‘Possesses amazing ability? Source of troubles? What kind of ability would be the source of trouble?’
