Chapter 1718: Purity of Heart

While Ye Sizhu was wondering what she could do, she heard Jiang Chen’s voice .

The garden was in chaos . Nobody noticed the true body was leaving secretly with Ye Sizhu .

The practicing body was like a Heavenly God descending on this world . His omnipotent power made everyone on the scene involuntarily prostrate themselves before him .

However, the practicing body, called out by the injured true body, was equally wounded .

But the practicing body did not have to consider the future despite the severe injury, because he would not affect the true body anyway .

So, regardless of the injury, the practicing body exerted his most powerful side .

If anyone had taken a close look at him, they would have seen his forehead covered in beads of sweat due to the pain .

“For your sister’s sake, I’ll give you one more chance to apologize to me . ”

Standing there, the practicing body looked majestic with an indomitable spirit .

Ye Siyue felt small . She opened her mouth but found herself unable to utter a single word .

She took a deep breath and made another attempt . At that moment, an unseen force from the Venerable Sovereign plummeted towards the garden like a gigantic mountain .

Precisely speaking, it was the practicing body that the force landed on .

“The City in the Sky forbids you from running amok!”

A masculine voice rumbled like a thunderbolt .

Ye Siyue shouted in pleasant surprise . She once again recalled that she was actually at home, and there were enough strong people here .

However, Jiang Chen burst out laughing, not taking this force seriously at all .

He clasped his hands and recited a sword incantation . Then he waved towards the sky .

The Ultimate Sword Soul cleaved the mountain-like force in two .

“How dare a small Martial Sovereign in the middle stage be so arrogant before me!”

Jiang Chen was unapologetically lofty, imbued with a spirit that could conquer mountains and rivers . The energy he was releasing became stronger and stronger .

Compared to his previously glib attitude, he was now a completely different person .

In a trance, Ye Siyue thought Jiang Chen had two completely different personalities .

The only thing she didn’t understand was, if Jiang Chen was so strong, why had he bothered to make everything so complicated?

If he had demonstrated his strength as a Venerable Sovereign earlier, those in the city lord’s mansion would have treated him as a distinguished guest .

It did not take Ye Siyue long to deliberate the fact .

The practicing body’s energy had peaked . His rich sword energy shrouded the whole city .

All of a sudden, as if the cogs of a gear that had been running furiously abruptly broke down, Jiang Chen’s body emitted a sound as though the burden had finally become unbearable . His energy was declining rapidly .

Ye Siyue realized it immediately .

Her father would not hesitate . He jumped on the chance, and a golden rainbow flew across .

Ye Siyue wanted to stop him, but somehow she was not resolute enough and almost no one heard her .

The practicing body disassembled himself before anyone did anything . Those were the last words he said . Then he disappeared from the world .

Those from the city lord’s mansion felt relieved . They thought this incident was over .

“Never had an event like this happened for many years . ”

As they were busy commenting, they suddenly noticed a startling occurrence . Their second young lady had gone missing .

“Useless fools . Find her now!”

A raging voice emerged . Everyone in the city lord’s mansion heard it .

Seeing that the true body was missing as well, Ye Siyue immediately associated the disappearance with that of her sister .

Upon recalling what her younger sister had told her, Ye Siyue felt lost .

The citizens of the City in the Sky had also noticed the turmoil in the city lord’s mansion .

The details of the incident were gradually disclosed after some investigation .

Some people spiced up the story . In the end, rumor had it that a teenager intruded into the city lord’s mansion and abducted the second young lady after making a scene .

Almost immediately, the City in the Sky was locked down . Only entry was allowed . No one could leave .

Yao Qing, Apprentice Elder Brother Meng, and his companions were also in the city . This was good news for them .

At least they did not have to worry that Jiang Chen would slip out of the city .

Unfortunately, after such an incident, the city lord’s mansion stopped receiving guests, so they could not meet the city lord .

“Well, let’s wait in the City in the Sky for the moment . We can’t leave anyway . ”

“Okay . I have some resources here . I’ll ask them for a favor to pay attention to that lad’s whereabouts . ”

Jiang Chen, whom they were pursuing, was on a bridge in a remote part of the city .

“Jiang Chen, could you stop despising my elder sister?”

The second young lady, whom the people of the city lord’s mansion had been looking for, was with him . She did not look like she had been abducted at all .

“Your family is tracking me down . I don’t get to forgive anyone . ”

Touching his nose, Jiang Chen managed a bitter smile . This girl admired him to a staggering extent . She thought him incapable of nothing .

“I know that anyone who goes against you will end up defeated . No matter how strong they are, in the end they’ll be subdued by you and beg for your mercy . ”

Ye Sizhu was serious . After all that had happened, she did not even dare look at Jiang Chen’s face . All she did was stare out at the river .

“Really? Give me examples . ” Jiang Chen was curious .

“For instance, the Black Dragon City in the Fire Field, the aristocratic families of inheritance in the Dragon Field, the Sacred Martial Arts Institute, and the Blood Shadow Dynasty . ”

Ye Sizhu elaborated in a single breath, without any pause . She seemed to know Jiang Chen’s story even better than himself .

Jiang Chen felt slightly emotional hearing those names . He had traveled widely and met countless people over the past ten years .

But in the end, those were merely experiences that he left behind .

Few people were still with him until then .

“Elder Brother Jiang Chen, will you promise me that you won’t kill all of my family members?”

Ye Sizhu plucked up the courage to turn around . She gazed at him sympathetically .

“Since you’re pleading, all right, I’ll give your family another chance . ” Jiang Chen relented .

If others were to overhear their conversation, they would have thought those two insane .

What kind of place was the City in the Sky? The city lord’s mansion, namely, the ruler of the city, was certainly a place no one could afford to ignore .

However, from the pair’s conversation, it sounded like a place that enjoyed undeserved fame, a place not worth mentioning at all .

“Well, you can go back now,” said Jiang Chen .

Ye Sizhu was dumbstruck . She then felt relieved but was also reluctant to bid goodbye to Jiang Chen .

After some deliberation, she said, “I’ll stay with you . You can’t leave the City in the Sky anyway . I’ll be your guide . ”

Jiang Chen was close to declining . However, Ye Sizhu guessed what he was about to say . She raised her arm and hid her face behind her sleeve .

When she had lowered her arm, Ye Sizhu’s expression had changed completely .

“I know you are skilled in disguising yourself, but I’m not that bad either,” Ye Sizhu asserted smugly .

Jiang Chen nodded his agreement . He extended a finger and pointed towards the center of her forehead .

Soon, even Ye Sizhu’s energy field shifted discreetly .

Even if she were to stand right in front of Ye Siyue, the latter would not have been able to recognize her .

Ye Sizhu discarded everything through which her identity could be disclosed and stole a coat made of rough fabric from an old hut nearby .

Jiang Chen saw her leave a spiritual stone much more valuable than the coat in the house after taking it away .

He could not help but smile .

It was rare for someone in such a cruel world to have a pure heart like Ye Sizhu .

But he had to admit that it would be hard for people like her to survive without the shelter of her family .

Jiang Chen clenched his fists involuntarily, a resolute glint flashing across his eyes .

“I’ll not only rebuild the Black Yellow Great World, but also build a new world in which everyone can live a decent life . I’ll enable people like her to live in this world without losing their purity of heart!”
