Chapter 881: Which Side Are You On?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He had obviously recognized Ye Chen. After all, Ye Chen’s aura felt exactly the same as that person!

This was also the reason why he had been quietly observing Ye Chen from the

side.

As for why he whispered in Ye Chen’s ear, it was because Alchemy Master Ling Yi had instructed him before he left that the fact that this young man had been looking for him and the name Ling Yuan could not be known to others.

After giving his instructions, Alchemy Master Ling Yi had started searching even beyond the borders of Danxu Town.

From this, it could be seen how important this young man was to Alchemy Master LingYi. Therefore, the only thing he could do was to try and mediate this situation until Alchemy Master Ling Yi returned.

Although Ye Chen was puzzled as to why the other party would ask this, he still nodded.

“Can you tell me the name? Lip reading will do.” Old Fang was still cautious.

Ye Chen’s lips moved slightly, silently mouthing the shape of two words, Ling

Yuan.

After receiving Ye Chen’s answer, Old Fang’s expression changed completely, and his back was drenched in sweat.

If he had not been observant and careful, Old Yang would have done something unforgivable!

If Alchemy Master Ling Yi were to get angry, he and Old Yang would definitely

die!

He had to deal with this!

Without further ado, Old Fang grabbed the blade of Old Yang’s sword, causing blood to flow out of his palm.

Then-

Pa da!

Old Fang exerted a little strength and pulled the sword out of Old Yang’s hand

and threw it to the ground.

This scene left everyone shocked and dumbfounded.

What was Old Fang doing?

Even Ye Chen was taken aback.

As for Old Yang, he was the most confused!

“Old Fang, what are you doing?!” he shouted loudly, Are you going to help this evil creature?!”

Before he could finish speaking, Old Fang gathered his true qi and slapped Old

Yang’s wrinkled cheek!

“B*stard! Don’t be rude to Milord!”

Old Yang was petrified. He had never expected Old Fang to attackhim, and further, even address this kid as Milord!

Who the f*ck could explain what was going on?

Old Yang was flustered and exasperated. However, just as he was about to say something, Old Fang had already turned around and brandished his Ash Wolf Saber, pointing its tip at Daoist Nanxuan, Cui Yuan, and the others.

“I’m sorry, but no matter what, you can’t take this person with you today!”

Cui Yuan’s expression turned extremely ugly, and Daoist Nanxuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. He could not figure out what was going on here.

He did not have much interaction with these two old gatekeepers.

The duty of these two was to guard the Core Tower, while his own duty was to protect Danxu Town, which also included the Core Tower.

At this moment, Old Fang’s actions seemed to be challenging his authority!

Daoist Nanxuan stared at Old Fang with interest and asked curiously, “Can you give me a reason for this?”

Naturally, Old Fang could not reveal the relationship between Ye Chen and Alchemy Master LingYi. He snorted coldly and said domineeringly, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have the right to know the reason, nor do you need to know the reason!”

At this moment, Luo Yao and Luo Wuya finally arrived. When they saw the tense scene, Luo Yao’s heart jumped to her throat again.

She saw Ye Chen and was about to speak when a pair of hands covered her mouth.

It was Luo Wuya!

“Stinky girl, are you trying to get the Luo family killed? Those two are Alchemy Master Ling Yi’s people, and the others are the guardians! This is no place for you to interfere!”

Luo Wuya was almost scared to death by his daughter. He did not want her or the family to be involved in the matter.

He only hoped that this young man would die as soon as possible. Only his death would solve all of these problems.

When Daoist Nanxuan heard Elder Fang’s answer, his expression darkened.

Without hesitation, he drew his sword and pointed it at Old Fang.

“You and I are in charge of different things. If we’re really talking about authority, I’m far superior to you in Danxu Town. No matter what, you are just a watchdog. Without Alchemy Master Ling Yi, what are you?

“I don’t want to attack you, but if you don’t hand him over, don’t blame me for being rude,” he said in an unquestionable tone.

Old Fang did not back down at all. His gaze was incomparably firm!

He had to protect this person until Alchemy Master Ling Yi returned, at all costs!

“Daoist Nanxuan, I don’t care what kind of conflict you have with him, but please be clear about where you are standing at this moment. This is the Core Tower!”

“If you dare to take another step forward, don’t blame me for taking action. It’s been a long time since my saber has tasted blood.”

At this moment, a skinny hand grabbed the saber in Old Fang’s hand.

It was Old Yang, who was still in a daze about what was happening.

He looked at Old Fang and asked in surprise, “Old Fang, what’s wrong with you today? Our duty is only to protect the Core Tower and Alchemy Master Ling Yi. Why are you overstepping your authority to protect a murderer? Are you suffering from dementia?!”

“Old Fang, it seems that your companion is more sensible than you. Are you sure you want to continue being so stubborn?”

Daoist Nanxuan smiled slightly as he said this.

Old Fang almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He glanced at Old Yang and quickly sent a voice transmission, “Old Yang, do you know who this young man is?”

Old Yang was stunned. He looked at Ye Chen again, and suddenly found him familiar.

“He’s the young man that Alchemy Master LingYi is looking for! Do you know what you are doing now? If anything happens to him, will you be able to bear the responsibility?”

Old Yang’s face instantly turned pale, and he felt nearly knelt in front of Ye Chen in front of everyone.

How could he have not recognized him? If anything really happened to this young man because of him, Alchemy Master Ling Yi would definitely skin him alive when he returned.

Suddenly, an invisible wave of energy lifted him up.

Old Fang’s voice entered his mind again. “Don’t do that. Don’t forget Alchemy Master Ling Yi’s instructions. No one can find out about this matter! We’ll talk about it when Alchemy Master LingYi returns!”

Old Yang came back to his senses and apologized softly to Ye Chen. Then, he erupted with killing intent as he pointed his sword at Daoist Nanxuan. “Daoist Nanxuan, if you take a step forward, I’ll be the first to attack you!”

Silence!

No one expected Old Yang’s attitude to make a 180-degree change!

One second ago, he was on Daoist Nanxuan’s side, but the very next second, he had switched over to Old Fang’s side!

More importantly, the two gatekeepers of the Core Tower were, for some unknown reason, protecting this heavily injured young man!

This was unbelievable!

When Luo Wuya saw this scene, he stopped covering Luo Yao’s mouth, and for a moment, he even stopped breathing. His eyes were as wide as saucers.

Confusion, disbelief, doubt, and countless emotions filled his heart and mind.
