The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms-Chapter 3434 - 3429: Yang Chen in the Netherworld?_1
As the saying goes, there are no walls without cracks in this world.
Silver City originally planned to suppress the matter of forcing Yang Chen into the Spatial Divine River and keep it a secret, but he didn’t expect the Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses to take the matter so seriously and launch an investigation.
With these Heavenly Extreme Realm experts issuing orders for investigation, Silver City couldn’t hide the secret any longer. After all, those Heavenly Fate Realm experts who worked with him that day were not absolutely loyal to him, and they wouldn’t keep too many secrets for his sake, would they?
And so, Silver City was directly summoned by the three Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses stationed here.
Each of these three Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses was a famous figure among humans, able to turn the tide with a flick of their hands.
One of them had a deep connection with Yang Chen. He was none other than Ye Shan Dao Ancestor, whom Yang Chen had met back then when he ventured into the Jingling Secret Realm.
Seeing Silver City’s arrival, Ye Shan Dao Ancestor’s voice sank: "Silver City, I heard that you forced Yang Chen into the Spatial Divine River, is that true?"
Silver City’s body shuddered as he looked at the three Daoist Ancestors staring at him, his heart filling with panic.
At that time, all he had thought was that Yang Chen, a mere Heaven-separated Realm cultivator, would be inconsequential if he died. Many in the Heaven-separated Realm had died in the Forbidden Spirit Palace anyway, so it wasn’t unusual.
Yang Chen’s death should not have caused any ripples, according to him.
However, these three Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses now seemed to be seeking justice for Yang Chen, which greatly alarmed Silver City.
In his panic, Silver City said hastily, "Honorable Daoist Ancestors, there’s something you don’t know. When this junior forced Yang Chen into the Spatial Divine River, it was due to a difficult situation. At that time, Yang Chen was in league with the Insect Race, and we don’t know if the Primordial Treasure fell into their hands or where it ended up. This Yang Chen might be talented, but he chose to serve another group. Out of anger, this junior decided to act on Heaven’s behalf and slay him."
As Silver City spoke, he sounded more and more of the opinion that Yang Chen deserved his fate.
However, these Daoist Ancestor powerhouses, each of whom had lived for an extraordinarily long time, wouldn’t be deceived by Silver City’s few words, would they?
Ye Shan Dao Ancestor squinted his eyes and looked at the other two Daoist Ancestors: "What do you two think?"
A white-bearded elder with a stern expression said, "Ridiculous. Just because Yang Chen collaborated with the Insect Race, you concluded that he betrayed his Sect and master? Do you have any concrete evidence?"
"At that time, this junior asked him to take out two untouched World Treasures for me to look at, but this kid refused to do so. It’s clear that he gave the World Treasures to the Insect Race." Silver City said anxiously.
"Foolish!" The white-bearded elder obviously had a short temper. "If Yang Chen cooperated with the Insect Race, do you think the Insect Race would help him unconditionally? There must have been some transaction between the two. If Yang Chen obtained two World Treasures, and he had the help of the Insect Race, it’s natural to assume that one of the Primordial Treasures would be given to the Insect Race. It can’t be taken out just because you said so."
Ye Shan Dao Ancestor nodded in agreement: "Yang Chen had his reasons for not showing you the treasure. Regardless whether Yang Chen could produce one or several Primordial Treasures, just one would already be extremely beneficial to our human race. But now, due to your actions, it’s been driven into the Spatial Divine River!"
Upon hearing this, Silver City finally began to panic.
At this point, he knew that it would be difficult to avoid a light punishment this time.
"Honorable Daoist Ancestors, I didn’t do it on purpose. At that time, I just wanted to contribute to my Sect and didn’t think too much about it." Silver City said.
"You didn’t think too much? Have you lived these millions of years for nothing?" The white-bearded elder, known for his short temper, could not help but curse.
Ye Shan Dao Ancestor also looked coldly at Silver City: "Now that Yang Chen’s whereabouts are unknown, Silver City, you’d better prepare to accept your punishment."
Silver City shuddered at the mention of punishment and quickly looked for help from the third Daoist Ancestor.
This Daoist Ancestor was his real savior.
The third Daoist Ancestor, clad in a Grand Abyss Palace Daoist robe, looked at Silver City helplessly and said, "Brother Ye Shan, Brother Spirit Communication, it’s no use punishing Silver City now. There must have been some misunderstandings between him and Yang Chen that day. We shouldn’t punish Silver City just because of a Primordial Treasure. We still need to investigate this matter. Of course, punishment is still necessary, but let’s not be too severe and cruel. Our human race needs more warriors now."
Seeing the Daoist Robe Ancestor pleading on his behalf, Ye Shan Dao Ancestor and Spirit Communication Dao Ancestor both frowned slightly.
As a Daoist Ancestor from the Grand Abyss Palace, he was naturally speaking for the people of the Grand Abyss Palace. But they couldn’t argue with that.
One Daoist Ancestor’s plea for mercy would make it difficult to carry out a strong penalty without causing offense.
But just then, they heard a voice.
"Honorable Daoist Ancestor seniors."
"What’s the matter?" Ye Shan Dao Ancestor asked in surprise.
"There’s news about Yang Chen." A Heavenly Destiny Expert came forward to report.
"More news about Yang Chen? Haha, that’s great. So, is Yang Chen still alive and well?" Ye Shan Dao Ancestor asked.
Silver City’s body stiffened as he was also shocked. How could there be news about Yang Chen again?
The Heavenly Destiny Expert quickly explained, "The incident I’m about to tell you might sound ridiculous to the three Daoist Ancestors, as we also find it strange. The news came from a spy in the Netherworld. At first, these spies were only stationed in the outer regions of the Netherworld Darkcurrent Universe to guard against any sinister plots during this critical juncture. However, they did not expect to discover that the Outer Darkflow Universe had fallen into complete chaos."
"Chaos? What happened?" Spirit Communication Dao Ancestor was equally curious.
"The specifics aren’t clear to the spy either. All we know is that the Outer Darkflow Universe has been completely liberated. The powerhouses of the Netherworld have betrayed the Netherworld, and the enslaved major Sects have also been freed. As for the person who liberated them, it’s none other than Yang Chen. However, this Yang Chen is elusive, and we don’t know if he’s the same person as the Yang Chen from our race." The Heavenly Destiny Expert said.
All three Daoist Ancestor powerhouses were shocked.
"The Outer Darkflow Universe has become like this?"
"Who could this Yang Chen be?"
"Honorable Daoist Ancestors, this is clearly a scheme by the Netherworld. Yang Chen is most likely dead now, there’s no way he could appear in the Netherworld." Silver City exclaimed urgently, not wanting Yang Chen to come back from the dead.
If that were to happen, it would be difficult for him to wash away his sins.
"Shut up." Ye Shan Dao Ancestor scolded coldly and analyzed, "Although it’s said that jumping into the Spatial Divine River is certain death, Yang Chen possesses the Space-Time Law. Jumping into the Spatial Divine River doesn’t necessarily mean certain death for him. In fact, if he were to escape from the Spatial Divine River, it’s possible that he might actually end up in the Netherworld!"
