The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 570 [I stayed here last night]

Ye Chenfeng’s eyes were filled with terror, his eyeballs nearly popping out!

For in front of him appeared a scene that defied scientific logic: it seemed as if an invisible barrier had formed within the Holy Grail, actually preventing drops of blood from falling. The crimson droplets hung suspended over the Holy Grail, and they did not disperse.

An ordinary person witnessing this might think it was a movie shoot, and would naturally assume it was a cheap special effect.

However, Ye Chenfeng, who saw this scene, became gravely serious, his brows knotted with concern.

Could the legend be true? Only those with a sanctified mind and spirit can obtain the Holy Grail? As someone tainted with the karma of killing, it’s natural for the Holy Grail to reject me, not to mention my blood dripping into it.

Ye Chenfeng tried to force the blood into the Grail with his enormous strength, but he clearly felt the repulsion. The greater his force, the stronger the rejection he encountered.

Gradually, Ye Chenfeng felt the Holy Grail in his hands tremble, as if a powerful force wanted to break free, instilling a deep sense of trepidation and fear in his heart, as if he had angered it.

Ye Chenfeng quickly stopped, realizing that if he persisted, he might be injured by the strong force.

Ye Chenfeng gradually understood that the legend about such relics was mostly true. As for coming back to life, that might be an exaggeration, but unleashing miraculous power was possible.

But the blood and water to be contained in the Holy Grail must be strictly pure. Finding a person whose soul is pure and acceptable to the Holy Grail, and pure water, was somewhat difficult.

He had originally thought that having the Holy Grail would allow him to harness its power and explore the Reincarnation Mirror, but he hadn’t expected this result.

But Ye Chenfeng had anticipated this; after all, he was deeply steeped in killing karma, and it would have been strange if he had been accepted.

"Did the Divine King fail?" asked the Ghost Head God of Killing, understanding immediately from Ye Chenfeng’s expression.

"Yes, the Holy Grail rejects me, my blood simply won’t do!" said Ye Chenfeng, somewhat frustrated.

The Ghost Head God of Killing asked curiously, "Then how can one obtain the power of the Holy Grail?"

"The legend says that drinking the blood or water contained in the Holy Grail will bestow upon you the power you seek! But now the blood the Holy Grail needs must come from someone with a pure heart and also be accepted by it!" Ye Chenfeng said.

"So the water needed must also be the purest in the world?" the Ghost Head God of Killing logically inferred.

"Exactly!"

"I’ve heard of a sacred spring in the West where the water is incredibly pure. But that too is just a legend!" the Ghost Head God of Killing said offhandedly.

"Don’t worry, even if I don’t bring out the Emperor of Night myself, he’ll come back for me! Moreover, the news that I am alive will soon spread throughout the West! It seems there won’t be much peace in the days to come, so I should cherish it!" Ye Chenfeng sighed.

He had known that if he allowed the Emperor of Night to return, his identity would be revealed, and that was something he couldn’t stop.

The Ghost Head God of Killing’s eyes flashed, showing unmistakable excitement, and the corners of his mouth curled with a murderous and bloodthirsty smile.

"Alright, off to sleep!" Ye Chenfeng said, ready to leave.

The Ghost Head God of Killing spoke up, "Your Highness the Divine King, there’s something that might be very important!"

Ye Chenfeng stopped in his tracks and turned to ask, "What is it?"

"Recently, a group of people from Jintian Corporation of Japan arrived in Jiangnan, they seem to be seeking business cooperation! They even met with Jiang Tian!" the Ghost Head God of Killing revealed important information.

Ye Chenfeng’s eyes flickered and he sneered, "Jintian Corporation? Are they targeting Chu Corporation?"

"I will keep a close eye on them, Your Highness the Divine King!" declared the Ghost Head God of Killing.

"Good!"

...

Jiangnan Airport.

"Little Yan has finally made it here safely!" Cai Ying breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"If Sister Ying had him as my personal bodyguard, we wouldn’t have had to go through all this!" Liu Yan sighed while casting a dissatisfied glance at the four expressionless bodyguards who looked like zombies.

"Alright, alright. I’ve already sent out the information to find you a skilled bodyguard!" said Cai Ying.

Liu Yan nodded, "Okay!" But then her expression turned melancholic, "Alas, we have no ability to compete for the Holy Grail. My mother doesn’t have much time left!"

Cai Ying’s face also turned somewhat gloomy, "Little Yan, why don’t you just go back to your father? Hasn’t he said he would treat your mother’s illness?"

Anger flashed across Liu Yan’s face, "I won’t go back, I’m adamant about not going back. And that’s not just my decision, it’s also what my mother wants!"

"Well, he has tried to take you back several times; this can’t go on like this!" Cai Ying became more wistful.

"Let’s leave it at this for now. Why hasn’t anyone from Jintian Corporation arrived yet?" Liu Yan said with some urgency.

"They should be here soon. The people from Jintian Corporation mentioned they’ve specially invited a Japanese Buddhist master who can cure your aunt. Do you believe that, Little Yan?" asked Cai Ying.

Liu Yan pursed her red lips, "I don’t really believe it, but it’s still a chance I can’t miss. After all, I just need to participate in their ribbon-cutting ceremony for the business association they’re establishing in Jiangnan."

"Excuse me, are you Miss Liu Yan?" At that moment, one woman and two men approached, the woman speaking Divine Land’s language somewhat stiffly but understandably.

"Yes, I am!" Liu Yan nodded gently.

Cai Ying stepped forward to confirm their identity.

"Hello, Miss Liu Yan, I’ve been sent by Jintian Corporation to pick you up, please come this way!" After confirming identities, the Japanese woman invited them.

...

The next day.

Chu Qingxue walked out of the bedroom exhausted, wearing just her nightgown, and headed to the bathroom.

"Creak!"

"Ah!"

To Chu Qingxue’s surprise, the door suddenly opened and a figure crashed straight into her. At the same time, Chu Qingxue was knocked flying, but just as she was about to hit the ground, a pair of strong arms encircled her slender waist and caught her.

Chu Qingxue’s face rapidly filled with blood at a visible speed, turning bright red.

"Let go!"

Seeing Ye Chenfeng brazenly scanning her body with his eyes, Chu Qingxue’s face flushed even more, and she hastily struggled out of Ye Chenfeng’s arms.

"What are you doing here?" Chu Qingxue asked, puzzled.

Ye Chenfeng yawned, "I stayed here last night, ah!"

"What?" Chu Qingxue was startled, but then she broke out in a cold sweat, asking with immense fear, "Didn’t you leave last night? Why are you staying here?"

The thought that Ye Chenfeng was staying there without her knowing, not to mention Lu Wanqing and Chu Qingfei, who were still asleep, was terrifying.

Chu Qingxue felt a chill all over, her face deathly pale.

"What are you so nervous about? I didn’t do anything; at most, I just covered you with a blanket," Ye Chenfeng said with a smile.
