Chapter 203: 118. Reunion after 14 years! Ye Xuan'er breaks down in tears! I only have one good brother! _2
"COUGH. COUGH."
He spoke in a leisurely tone, "Ye Chen, I've noticed lately that you're becoming smarter. But unfortunately, it's too late."
Lin Xiao shrugged. "Exactly. I have the ability to snatch your opportunities, but do you know? That's not the most important thing to me."
Hearing this, the black-clothed young man imprisoned in the cell trembled slightly. "Hmm?" he asked hoarsely. "Then...what is your aim, after all!?"
At this moment, he too set aside his Son of Destiny demeanor and became serious.
He had battled this enigmatic fellow of unfathomable status for so long, and he had consistently lost! He also wanted to know what the other party's true intentions were.
Lin Xiao's lips curled. "My goal? Ye Chen, you're so fond of assuming others' intentions. Why don't you guess again: between Providence and you, who is more important to me?"
"Of course it's Providence! You're simply aiming for the endless Providence and opportunities in my destiny!" Ye Chen roared again.
"No, you guessed wrong," Lin Xiao said, shaking his head.
Ye Chen's brow twitched. "Then...is it me!? Do you want...to capture me? To threaten my sister Xuan'er through me?"
Lin Xiao shook his head again and took a step forward, his gaze suddenly becoming incomparably sharp. "No, that's still wrong. Neither Providence nor you are important to me."
"What's important to me is your absence."
Faced with the decisive killing intent in the other's eyes, Ye Chen instinctively stepped back. "This..." He felt a fear that came from the depths of his heart!
The man before him... he wants to completely annihilate me, the Son of Destiny!
"Well, our idle chat ends here for tonight."
"Thank you, Prince Ye, for your heartfelt performance."
Lin Xiao's lips curled, a cunning light glinting in his eyes.
"Lin Xiao! What... what is that in your hand!?"
It was only then that Ye Chen noticed the object in his opponent's hand. It looked suspiciously like a Photo Stone!
Lin Xiao put away the Photo Stone, casually walking towards the cell door while saying nonchalantly, "As you can see. I used this Photo Stone to record your pitiful state in this bone-chilling Ice Jail. This is the gift I will soon deliver to the Northern Territory Queen."
"Lin Xiao! You despicable, treacherous Immortal Stick! You really want to use me to threaten my sister Xuan'er!" Ye Chen finally realized what was happening and roared hysterically.
However, it was already too late.
Only a loud BANG was heard.
His greatest lifelong rival had already shut the cell door and strode away!
"How... how could this happen..." Ye Chen despaired. "How could I, the Princely Heir, fall into such a predicament! I... I cannot accept this! Old Shi, teach me! I don't know what to do anymore!"
At this moment, the once high-spirited sixteen-year-old boy, who had proudly proclaimed, "Fortune turns in thirty years, today the east, tomorrow the west," felt his heart completely shatter. He clutched his head, crying bitterly.
That's right... I took off the Soul Ring. Old Shi will never pay attention to me again... That old bastard Yuanyi is completely unreliable; I can't count on him! Now, the only one who can help me is...
The young man suddenly remembered something. He pulled the bronze short sword from his waist, knelt, and pleaded with utmost sincerity, "Master Moon Princess! Please, for the sake of me helping you break the seal, save me!"
"Ah, my dear Princely Heir, you've finally remembered me," Just then, a charmingly coquettish voice emerged from the ancient sword.
Following that, the residual image of an alluring, voluptuous, and exquisitely beautiful woman materialized from the void.
"My dear Princely Heir, I previously taught you that Secret Skill from the Upper Realm, but you weren't willing to practice it. That proves you don't fully trust me, sigh~" Moon Princess rolled her eyes, clearly displeased.
"Master Moon Princess, it's not like that..." Ye Chen quickly explained, "While I was cultivating your technique, the Blood Demon sensed it, so I didn't dare continue practicing!"
"To avenge myself and settle the score, I, Ye Chen, had no choice but to cooperate with the Demon Sect! You even agreed to this later on!"
"Alright, alright, let bygones be bygones. For now, you probably won't be visiting that Sky Yin Blood Demon for a while. So, you should hurry and practice the 'Heavenly Secret Methods'. Once you reach the 3rd level, you'll be able to break out of this Ice Jail and escape to safety!" Moon Princess said, her tone remarkably gentle and patient.
"Yes, Master!"
"You're too good to me!"
"You are truly the most beautiful and kind-hearted person in the world!"
Tears of gratitude welled up in Ye Chen's eyes. He had originally quarreled with Moon Princess because of his attitude towards the Blood Demon!
He thought she would never appear again!
Yet, he hadn't expected this great beauty to still stand by him, never abandoning him!
This powerful backer is so much better than that narrow-minded old fool, Old Shi!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but throw the Soul Ring from his sleeve onto the ground and stomp on it twice.
Soon, he sat cross-legged, with his five centers facing heaven, and following Moon Princess's incantation, he entered a state of deep meditation.
