Chapter 1660

Ye Ming gritted his teeth. He was on the brink of insanity. He stabbed the short dagger in his hand again, and blood flowed out from Tombkeeper's wound.

Viper's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He wanted to tear Ye Ming apart at that very moment.

Tombkeeper's expression was as calm as Zi Chen's at that moment. It was as if he was not the one being controlled, but someone else.

Unconcealable killing intent surged around Man Shi and the rest. Their eyes were fixed on Ye Ming.

Old Man Schenker, on the other hand, was a very good spectator. He did not say a word and just watched silently.

Looking at the crazy Ye Ming, Zi Chen said calmly, "You killed him, so you have to die too."

Ye Ming smiled coldly and said, "What do you think is the difference between my current state and my death? Outside, all of you were inferior to me. But now, all of you have surpassed me. Even if I let Tombkeeper go today, you'll still kill me when you see me in the future. So what if I die? It's not bad to drag one of you down with me before I die."

Zi Chen said indifferently, "You've said so much just to tell me that you're not afraid of death."

Ye Ming said sternly, "That's right."

Zi Chen said again, "I admire your courage in not being afraid of death. But I've only prepared 66 of those God Seals. I'm sorry."

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly surged around Zi Chen. Beams of golden light began to shine. The dazzling golden light illuminated the small grocery store.

"If you dare to attack, then die together."

Ye Ming had completely gone crazy. The dazzling golden light made him close his eyes subconsciously. However, the short dagger in his hand stabbed forward violently. Tombkeeper groaned as blood spurted out from his neck.

The dazzling golden light disappeared instantly. Zi Chen waved his hand helplessly and said, "Alright, you win. I do have one more God Seal with me."

"Give it to me. Give it to me. No, throw it to me directly." There was a gleam in Ye Ming's crazy eyes. "Don't play tricks. Otherwise, you'll die guarding the tomb."

Zi Chen really took out a Devouring Divine Seal, but his expression became extremely solemn. He looked at Ye Ming and said in a deep voice, "Ye Ming, since we met again in Shuntian Prefecture, you have always had killing intent towards me, but I didn't do anything to you. Now, I want to tell you that my patience is limited. I can give you the Devouring Divine Seal, but you have to live to guard the tomb. Otherwise, even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth, I will kill you. As for the Golden Leaf City, the Ye Clan, even if your father is the City Lord, I will still destroy them."

Ye Ming's heart skipped a beat, but he was not frightened. His emotions, which had just calmed down, went crazy again. "Zi Chen, tell me clearly. Are you tolerating me, or am I tolerating you? Although there was a gap between us in the Manor Realm, when did I fail to complete the missions you gave me? Or did you say that I was lazy and didn't do my best?"

"At the last moment of danger, we knew that we would die if we stayed. Why do you want us to stay? I left, but I made the best and wisest choice. I didn't do anything wrong. Why don't you trust me?"

"In the Battlefield of Despair, we risked our lives to kill the foreign races, but what did we get in the end? We got nothing. You have the Devouring Mark on you, and they all got a share. Why don't I get a share? You lied to me that I risked my life to kill the enemy, but you didn't believe me at all. You've been using me."

Ye Ming said sternly, "Zi Chen, tell me now. Are you tolerating me, or am I tolerating you?"

Facing the agitated Ye Ming, Zi Chen said calmly, "What happened in the Manor Realm is over. What you choose is your own business. As for the Battlefield of Despair, you said that you didn't get anything. Let me tell you now. You were provided with resources. Don't underestimate those resources. Even those in the late stage of the seventh level might not be able to get them."

"The price of the resources didn't change, but the price of the resources sold was only half. To us, it was a sacrifice, but to you, it was a gain. Not only did you get the resources, but you also got all the money you owed after the war. Also, the secret place we went to was the reward for the final battle. Many people didn't get it, but you did. Unfortunately, you chose to give it up again.

"From the beginning to the end, you weren't fighting for me. You were fighting for the Imperial Sky Region, for the entire human race. Perhaps it's hypocritical, but it's the truth. As for what I got, from the beginning to the end, I've been giving. I've never gotten anything in return. If I have to say what I got, it's that I got a lot of money that I'll never be able to collect.

"As for the Devouring God Seal, I exchanged my life for it. It's my personal possession. I can give it to whoever I want. In fact, I did consider giving it to you, but you're not worthy of me trusting my back to you on the battlefield. Or rather, you're not worthy of it for the time being. Reality has proven me right. At the moment of danger, you gave up on us again without hesitation."

Zi Chen looked into Ye Ming's eyes and said indifferently, "I'll say it again. You're not worthy of my trust, and you're not worthy of my life in your hands. You can take the God Seal today, and I can guarantee your safety. However, nothing can happen to guarding the tomb. If you take it and still want to kill him, then when I get out of here, the Ye Clan in Shuntian Prefecture and Golden Leaf City will no longer exist."

Zi Chen tossed the last God Seal to Ye Ming. He had no intention of taking Ye Ming down and directly threw it in front of Ye Ming.

Ye Ming had already lost his rationality. Under such circumstances, he could do anything.

If he killed the tomb keeper just to kill Ye Ming, then it was not worth it at all.

After receiving the God Seal, Ye Ming dragged the tomb keeper and retreated out of the door.

Zi Chen and the rest followed behind slowly.

Outside, many cultivators' expressions changed when they saw this scene.

Zi Chen was ranked first on the seventh-grade weapon ranking. His reputation had long spread throughout the Imperial Sky City, and almost everyone knew him.

At this moment, when they saw Zi Chen and Ye Ming who was in front of Zi Chen, everyone was very curious.

Ye Ming kept retreating and was highly focused, afraid that someone would suddenly jump out from the surroundings.

However, such worries were completely unnecessary. In Zi Chen's heart, the life of guarding the tomb was more precious.

The group retreated out of the city just like that. Ye Ming said coldly, "Next, if anyone dares to follow me out of the city, I will poke a hole in his body. Don't worry, I will do what I say."

Zi Chen waved his hand, indicating that no one should go out.

Ye Ming led the tomb keeper and walked into the distance.

Along the way, the tomb keeper sighed and said, "Actually, you don't have to do this at all. Although Zi Chen doesn't believe you, there is no problem in giving you a God Seal. Unfortunately, you are too impatient."

Ye Ming shouted, "Shut up, I know very well what kind of person Zi Chen is. He has never trusted me."

The tomb keeper shook his head, but just as he moved, he felt a sharp pain in his neck. He could only smile bitterly and say, "You know Zi Chen very well, you know very well that he doesn't believe you. However, you forgot that whether he believes you or not is one thing, whether he gives you a God Seal is another. In fact, he has already wavered. I saw him preparing to give you a God Seal at least twice. Unfortunately, you didn't pass the final test."

"Test? Was that a test?" Ye Ming said loudly, "That was a damn life and death crisis. Who can deal with that dragon army?"

"But we are still alive. If you didn't leave, or even if you didn't do anything back then, he might still not believe you, but I would definitely give you a God Seal. You have been giving your all, but you can't get their recognition. You feel wronged, but have you ever thought about whether you have ever acknowledged them?

"Have you ever treated them as family? Are you willing to die for them? Back then, when facing the dragon army, Zi Chen didn't ask for anyone's opinion. He didn't let anyone make a choice. It wasn't because he was worried about testing their humanity, but because of pure trust. We are like a whole. He won't give up on me, just like how he won't give up on them."

"Shut up," Ye Ming shouted.

"I don't need you to teach me how to do things. With your ability, I can crush you with a finger."

"Ye Ming, you are too selfish. You only think about your own efforts and rewards, but you don't think about others. In this matter, I find you to be very pitiful. Even if you get the God Seal by hook or by crook, so what? You have lost a strong heart and will never be strong."

The two were still moving forward. Ye Ming said disdainfully, "Stop lamenting here. You should think about your own life and death."

"You promised Zi Chen not to kill me," Mu Shou said indifferently.

"Did I promise? You believe me." Ye Ming laughed sarcastically.

Mu Shou said, "Even Zi Chen doesn't believe you, let alone me. You are afraid of death, afraid that Zi Chen will really chase you to the ends of the earth, and afraid that the Ye family will be destroyed. You want to kill me, but you don't dare to."

Ye Ming first glared fiercely at Mu Shou, then he laughed loudly, "Haha, I do want you to die, but I don't dare to kill you. However, if I don't kill you, don't tell me that others won't dare to kill you? Don't worry, someone will definitely treat you well. Your value will be dug out to the limit. If you're lucky enough to survive, I think we'll meet again. However, it won't be in the Battlefield of Despair, but in your world."

Mu Shou's expression changed, and he said, "You colluded with the Soul-eater Clan."

"Colluding sounds so unpleasant. It should be called cooperation and mutual benefit. Haha …"

Ye Ming's laughter echoed between heaven and earth. His figure only rose and fell a few times before he disappeared from sight.

After flying for dozens of kilometers, he finally left Mu Shou behind. At the same time, he said to the surroundings, "I've brought him here."

"Ye Ming, you really succeeded." A man in a black robe walked out from behind a big tree.

Mu Shou was too familiar with this attire. He cried out involuntarily, "Soul-eater Clan."

"Hehe, a new world is going to be ours." The black-robed man walked towards Mu Shou with excitement in his eyes.

Ye Ming seemed to be very afraid of the black-robed man. He took a few steps back and said, "Alright, there's nothing else for me. I should go."

"Go. I hope we'll have a chance to work together next time." The black-robed man waved his hand.

Ye Ming felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders as he flew into the distance.

He always felt uncomfortable when he was with the Soul-eater Clan.

The black-robed man walked towards Ye Ming and said, "I don't have much time. Before the others arrive, let me take away your soul. I think there should be many things in your soul that I'm interested in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black-robed man turned into a ball of black light and charged into Mu Shou's sea of consciousness.

At this moment, a golden soul figure stood in Mu Shou's sea of consciousness.
