Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Xie Hun took two steps back in shock and looked at Yan Ya in horror, “You have plans to take the Master’s Divine Seal! Do you want to die?!”

Yan Ya laughed, “Why are you so nervous? I was only asking how the thing looks like, how is that wanting to take it? Who would dare to go against Master?”

“That’s right, although Yan Ya is strong, he would not dare to go against Master.” Xie Hun said, “But I don’t think you should hear about the Cardinal Points Divine Seal. If you are mistaken by the Master, not only you, but even your Enchanted Music Sect will cease to exist!”

Yan Ya’s fingertips were moving along the jade flute’s holes. When he heard what he said, he was not disappointed. He only looked forward and said, “We should continue to move along.”

Seeing that he did not ask any further, Xie Hun walked over and continued moving forward with them.

Towards Qing Hun Master’s matters, it was better if no one asked him about it. If he was the slightest bit inattentive, he would be beheaded.

Yan Ya was actually plotting against the main master. n.o.body would know how he died in the future! However, he has nothing to do with him. He only needed his help to capture the ancient battle souls at this moment!

Fei Yi looked at Yan Ya worriedly. Yan Ya gave him a look to show that it meant nothing.

Since he dared to mention this at this time, he was not afraid of what Xie Hun would do.

They continued to move towards the centre. Midway, they encountered a few ancient battle souls. Every time, it was Yan Ya who helped Xie Hun to capture them, but Xie Hun did not remember the agreement to split the ancient battle souls as he took all the ancient battle souls for himself.

Yan Ya and Fei Yi only observed. They did not say anything, feeling that it was too low-cla.s.s for a commander to do things this way.

“There are many people in front.” Fei Yi said.

“Then we should hurry over.” Xie Hun sped forwards as had acquired quite a few ancient battle souls, so he was in such good spirits that he could fly.

Yan Ya and Fei Yi followed behind.

“Why are you giving in to him? I heard that he is only one of the top ten commanders due to his connections but he does not have strong abilities. Why must we give him any respect?” Fei Yi could not continue to witness this situation. With such a person, their personal value would drop.

“Relax, he won’t be able to strut around for long.” Yan Ya said nonchalantly.

“Don’t tell me you want to…”

“No. Although I don’t mind him dying, I need his help to help me do some things.” Yan Ya said, “You need to tolerate it a little more.”

“If it was not because of you, I would not even come here.” Fei Yi said, “I will try my best to ignore him, but the s.p.a.ce here is very fragile. You have to be careful, don’t fight against the ancient battle souls directly. Their ability is not strong enough. Once you touch it forcefully, the s.p.a.ce might collapse.”

“I know, I have my boundaries.” Yan Ya said.

Fei Yi knew that Yan Ya did things steadily, so he didn’t say much. He merely followed behind him while reminding him of any danger.

“What a strong aura!” Xie Hun, who was walking in front, felt sudden chills despite his excited tone, “It looks like we are already nearing the main battlefield.”

Nearing the main battlefield meant that there would be more ancient battle souls.

Yan Ya’s eyes shone much brighter as well. He didn’t care about the random ones, but he liked them in big groups.

Whoosh- Whoosh-

Gusts of wind blew towards them from the front ,while black silhouettes were blown all around the scene. It looked a little terrifying.

“So many ancient battle souls! What kind of war happened here in the past? So many people actually died!” Fei Yi was shocked.

“Now let’s not care which war left them here. Our main objective is to capture the ancient battle souls!” Xie Hun said to Yan Ya, “There are so many of them, can you deal with them all?”

Yan Ya did not think that there would be so many of them. These bunch of black silhouettes… there were at least a few hundred thousands of them. If they were all very powerful, it would be comparable to the presence of an army!

“I will try.” With so many, he did not dare to guarantee anything. He placed his jade flute by the side of his lips and started to play.

The sound of the flute made the ancient battle souls’ lost eyes slowly begin to focus. They looked over, as if looking for the one who was playing the flute, while simultaneously looking as if they were looking at their pasts. The flute sound slowly turned to mourning, causing their hearts to ache.

They felt as if they had experienced something that made their heart ache, but they could not remember anything.

So sad… So sad…

They wanted to reminisce about their past, but they did not even know who they were. Now, they only wanted to follow the sound of the flute, no matter where it led them to. Not caring about who they were, if they followed the sound of the flute, they would not be sad anymore.

Xie Hun took a bunch of soul stones out. Fei Yi took a bunch out too, and he casually threw the stones, and the ancient battle souls flew into the empty s.p.a.ce. The soul stones formed a circle, trapping the ancient battle souls in the middle.

The melody of Yan Ya’s flute continued to drift around, but the ancient battle souls still had no intention to enter the soul stones. As one tune finished, he started on a new one.

When Fei Yi heard the tune, he became anxious and wanted to stop him, but he held himself back. If he interrupted him now, the ancient battle souls would begin to wake up.

“Soon! Soon!” Xie Hun saw that most of the ancient battle souls’ eyes had begun to blur, and they were already absorbed in the sound of the flute. Just a little more, and they would all enter the soul stones obediently.

At this moment, a clear and lovable voice came from the opposite side.

“Hundred Ghost Banner, take them!”

They looked up. They did not know when the s.p.a.ce had an additional Ghost Banner. The strong absorption force absorbed all of those ancient battle souls that had lost their resistance. There were less than half of them in just a short while.

“Who is it!” Xie Hun shouted in shock. The next moment, he threw an attack towards the Hundred Ghost Banner, but the attack had not even reached near the Hundred Ghost Banner when it was stopped by Black Shadow, who suddenly appeared.

“My lady is still absorbing the souls. Random people shouldn’t come near it!” Black Shadow said as he slapped Xie Hun, sending him flying. Then, he placed his hands on his hips arrogantly.

Yan Ya stopped playing his piece, looked at Black Shadow who was behind the Hundred Ghost Banner and his pupils became shrank, “Hundred Ghost Banner?”

“What?!” Yan Ya was astonished as he looked at the Hundred Ghost Banner. That was actually the Hundred Ghost Banner that had been lost for so long?

“I don’t care if it’s the Hundred Ghost Banner! Quickly stop it, otherwise, the ancient battle souls will be taken away!” Xie Hun Shouted.

Yan Ya showed a cold expression and said, “Once the Hundred Ghost Banner is opened, only it’s Master can stop it. You should find the person before requesting anything else!”

Fei Yi closed his eyes to sense the atmosphere. He immediately opened his eyes, and attacked an empty s.p.a.ce. The s.p.a.ce here was too fragile, so he didn’t use much strength. However, it still got Sima You Yue and the others to come out from the s.p.a.ce.

“Mo Yu?” Yan Ya’s confidence to fight immediately dropped by three levels after seeing Mo Yu.

Yan Ya’s attention was not on Black Shadow. He looked at Sima You Yue. He did not forget the voice of the woman previously. This meant that the Hundred Ghost Banner belonged to this woman.

“I didn’t think that the Hundred Ghost Banner that had been lost for many years to appear again, is actually with you, the Ghost’s Clan Princess.”

“Looks like you recognise me.”

Yan Ya stared at her smiley eyes, “As the person who destroyed one of my Enchanted Music Sects, how could I not recognize you?”
