As soon as Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng entered the teahouse, they did not join in the fun. Instead, they found a seat by the window and sat down, ordering two cups of tea.
The tea house is very large, divided into four floors. The center is hollow. From the first floor, you can directly see the fourth floor. From the fourth floor, you can also see the first floor. Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng are on the east side of the second floor.
Although there were many people in the teahouse, there was no noise. Like Ye Chen and Ye Chen, everyone was sitting in their seats drinking tea, closing their eyes and relaxing, or they had made appointments with a few people and entered the teahouse on each floor.
In the secret pavilion, things were discussed in an orderly manner.
"Two guests, your tea." The teahouse boy's footsteps were very soft. He walked up to Ye Chen and said softly.
Ye Chen nodded and asked the other party to put down the tea.
The freshly brewed tea was slightly hot. Ye Chen picked it up and blew it to his mouth a few times. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he moved his eyes and began to observe the people in the teahouse.
There was nothing to see on the first floor. They were all at the Spiritual Sea Realm. There was not even a half-step king. Ye Chen's eyes first fell on the second floor.
On the second floor, there was only one person who caught Ye Chen's attention. She was a woman in yellow sitting on the west side. This woman was about thirty years old. She had a pretty face, a high nose, and a pair of dark eyes with a touch of deep yellow.
It was very scattered, and he didn't know where to focus. What caught Ye Chen's attention was not the appearance of the other party, but the deep and strange aura hidden in the other person's body. This aura was like a tarsal maggot, extremely feminine.
"I wonder what kind of monster made it?"
Ye Chen thought to himself.
While Ye Chen was sizing up the woman in yellow, the woman in yellow sensed something and turned her head to look at Ye Chen, revealing a smile that looked gentle but chilling.
"not to be trifled."
Ye Chen put a label on the other party.
Compared to the second floor, there are undoubtedly many more people worthy of attention on the third floor. There are twin brothers sitting next to the railing. One is as majestic as a tower and the other is as built as an ox. Both of them wear a copper earring. One is on the left ear.
and the right ear; there is a middle-aged scribe holding a sword and closing his eyes to meditate; there is an old woman with a withered face and a sinister breath; there is a fat man with a bald head and a tattoo on his head; there is also a weird old man wearing a raincoat...
"There are dozens of top half-step kings in this teahouse, and seven or eight of them are hard to see. I am afraid that they are close to the strongest half-step kings."
Murong Qingcheng was also observing everyone in the teahouse.
Ye Chen said: "The woman in yellow on the second floor and the old man in the raincoat on the third floor should be the strongest. The others are not weak either. They are all hard-to-find strong people."
Among the people worth noting, the woman in yellow and the old man in the raincoat pose the greatest threat to Ye Chen. Even if they are not the strongest half-step kings, they are not far behind."
"My eyesight is still a little worse than yours. I don't see anything wrong with these two people."
Murong Qingcheng looked at the woman in yellow and the old man in raincoat again. She couldn't help but shook her head slightly, she didn't have the same terrifying feeling as Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Based on first impression. There are some omissions, and maybe there are more hidden things."
The teahouse was very quiet. From time to time, a group of people walked out of the secret pavilion and left the teahouse. However, there were fewer and fewer people in the teahouse and it became increasingly quiet.
"Look, the woman in yellow was invited away."
Murong Qingcheng said.
Ye Chen looked over and saw that the person who invited the woman in yellow was a teahouse boy. The person led the woman in yellow to a secret pavilion on the third floor. Immediately, the door of the secret pavilion was closed and the boy came out.
After half a cup of tea, the twin brothers were also invited into the secret pavilion.
After another half cup of tea had passed, the waiter in the teahouse walked up to Murong Qingcheng and said, "This lady, the owner of the secret pavilion, invites you to come over and have a chat."
"oh!"
Murong Qingcheng was not surprised. After all, everyone came to the tea house for the same purpose, which was to form a team and explore the ruins together.
"He and I are together."
Murong Qingcheng knew that with Ye Chen's cultivation level, he would be looked down upon by others. There were a few people in the world who could be like Ye Chen and regard killing people as a meal. People who saw him for the first time would at most think that he could compete with ordinary people.
Whether the half-step king can defeat the opponent or not is another matter.
The waiter in the teahouse obviously got the instruction, "Then let's go together!"
Following the boy, the two of them came to the door of the secret pavilion on the third floor. With a creak, the door of the secret pavilion opened, and Ye Chen and the two walked in on their own.
"It seems that the soul stone formation is inlaid on the wall."
Entering the secret pavilion, Ye Chen didn't find anything mysterious, but the soul power could seep out, but from the outside, the soul power could not perceive the scene inside.
In the secret pavilion, there were nine people sitting. In addition to the woman in yellow, the twin brothers, there were two young men, a middle-aged woman, two middle-aged men, and an old man. The one sitting at the head was one of the middle-aged men.
The big man's complexion is bronze, his skin has a metallic texture, and his eyes are shining like two shining black gems, more black and less white.
"What's going on? Can a person with peak cultivation in the late Linghai Realm join our team without being too slow?"
The middle-aged woman with a mean look muttered.
"Hey, kid, you went to the wrong door!"
One of the twin brothers grinned.
The two young men had different expressions, one was sarcastic, the other was expressionless, with his eyes lowered, indifferent to anything, while the other yellow-faced man with lewd eyes was unscrupulously releasing his soul power and heading towards
Ye Chen glanced at him, as if he wanted to make him look embarrassed.
On the other hand, the man in bronze and the woman in yellow remained calm and watched the changes.
snort!
Ye Chen snorted softly and fought back with his soul power.
The yellow-faced middle-aged man's soul was shaken intuitively. His body was out of control and numb. What shocked him was that Ye Chen's soul power seemed to be cutting his soul, like I am a fish.
The feeling is not pleasant.
When the others saw that it was the yellow-faced man who suffered the loss, their eyes on Ye Chen couldn't help but change. This yellow-faced man was also a half-step king. His soul power was not very weak, and he had a soul membrane that could use his soul.
There are not many people here who can do it to make him suffer because of their strength. They all think highly of Ye Chen and their attitude has been somewhat restrained, at least on the surface.
"Both of you, please sit down."
The bronze man's complexion calmed down, his palms were drawn, and he said calmly.
Murong Qingcheng nodded and sat down reservedly.
Ye Chen glanced at Lin Yuxuan next to the bronze man, and sat down calmly, without any restraint.
"You two, I have made an agreement with everyone present to explore a certain ruins together. They all agreed. The reason for inviting you two is because you two look different and are certainly not weak in strength. As the saying goes, there is one more person.
, a little more strength.”
The bronze man didn't pay much attention to Ye Chen at first. He just wanted to invite Murong Qingcheng. Of course he couldn't say that now. Moreover, Ye Chen didn't look as weak as he looked. The yellow-faced man was a half-step king, but he was actually in the soul.
He suffered moderate losses in the duel, which speaks volumes.
Ye Chen said: "Keep talking!"
The bronze man and everyone present were a little surprised. Among the two, Ye Chen seemed to be the leader. Could it be that Ye Chen really had some ability, or was it just in name?
Clearing his throat, the bronze man said in a deep voice: "If you two agree, I will continue. If you two do not agree to join us, please leave. Not many people know about the ruins I discovered yet.
, the news cannot be leaked.”
Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng looked at each other, and Ye Chen muttered: "We agree."
"Okay." The bronze middle-aged man showed a smile and said: "This ruins is very huge. The place I discovered is only a part of it, but even this part is already extraordinary. This ruins are the ruins of Zhenshui Palace.
.”
"The ruins of Zhenshui Palace?"
Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng were at a loss as they had never heard of it.
Lin Yuxuan interrupted: "Zhenshui Palace was the most powerful fourth-grade sect in this sea area. Its power is not comparable to any fourth-grade sect today. The most powerful generation in Zhenshui Palace has appeared in total.
He has passed through thirteen kings in the realm of life and death, and the palace owner is one of the most powerful emperors at that time, Emperor Zhenshui."
"Thirteen kings from one sect, Emperor Zhenshui."
Ye Chen was secretly surprised. This Zhenshui Palace, in terms of its strength in its heyday, was indeed very terrifying. Nowadays, no sect can have thirteen kings of life and death, let alone an emperor, the Zhenshui Emperor. In ancient times,
Those who were granted the title of emperor were genuine ones who could leave traces on the emperor's monument.
However, no matter how prosperous a sect is, it will eventually fall. The current Zhenshui Palace is just a ruin, silent under the sea for countless years.
"There is something I want to tell you. This ruins is shrouded in a ban. For some unknown reason, many extremely terrifying beings have spawned inside. I invite you to enter together so that we can take care of each other and successfully take away the things inside.
treasure."
The ancient bronze man spoke eloquently.
"Okay, when will we leave?"
Such ruins usually contain treasures, so Ye Chen agreed without much hesitation.
"It will be a long night and many dreams, and I am also afraid that someone will leak the news. We will start setting off the moment we walk out of the secret pavilion. You should have no objections."
The bronze man looked around and asked.
"What objections we can have, it doesn't matter when we set off."
The twin brothers grinned.
"I do not have either."
The indifferent young man nodded.
Naturally, no one else had any objections. Why did everyone come to Baoguang Sea? It was just to try their luck and get some treasures.
"Okay, let's not rush for now. Let's all rest for a while. After drinking tea, we will set off together." The bronze man was not ready to invite anyone anymore. He nodded with satisfaction, gently shook the bronze bell in the secret pavilion, and gave orders.
Bring tea and cakes.
After drinking tea for a while and eating some pastries, the bronze man stood up and said, "Let's go!"
