296 The Desire For Power

Could it be that this was all because of that heart? f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

Ye Xuan recounted what he had just experienced, and Shen Changling and Qian Yuan both looked at him in disbelief. “To think such a strange thing happened.”

“If that’s the case, you must have been affected by that heart just now, that’s why you were acting so strange earlier.”

For a moment, the two of them became nervous, afraid that Ye Xuan would change into a different person in the next second, or that the energy left in his heart would revive again.

Looking at the two’s nervous expressions, Ye Xuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He assured them, “Don’t worry. I can feel that the power has disappeared. It won’t be able to do much to me.”

Ye Xuan remembered very clearly that most of the energy in the heart was absorbed by him. Even if the so-called ‘Master’ had remarkable abilities, it was impossible for him to cause any trouble.

As for the remaining energy, it wouldn’t be able to cause much harm.

“Although that’s what you say, you can’t let your guard down. What if it’s just an illusion to numb you?”

When the heart flew into Ye Xuan’s body, although most of its power had dissipated, the strange thing was that the body couldn’t expel it. It was as if it had already fused with him. No matter what Ye Xuan did, it still stubbornly rooted itself there.

Because he was certain that it was not harmful to him, Ye Xuan could only let it go for the time being.

“You’re right. I’ll deal with it when this is over. The most important thing now is to get rid of the high priest. I have a feeling that the incantation just now is related to the altar.”

It was impossible for the heart to move for no reason. It must be related to something, and the altar was the most deeply involved in this. Ye Xuan’s words were not without reason.

After listening to Ye Xuan’s analysis, Shen Changling and Qian Yuan nodded.

“What you say is very reasonable, but we only have one chance. If we fail, it will definitely arouse the high priest’s vigilance, and he might even become an enemy. At that time, it will be even more difficult to attack again, so we have to hit him in one strike.”

“Whether it’s the case or not, I’ll know when I try.”

Ye Xuan found an excuse to let the high priest go to the bone dragon to retrieve what he had left behind and get him away from the altar so that he wouldn’t discover their plan.

The high priest did not suspect anything. After he left, Ye Xuan went to the altar. As soon as he stepped on it, he felt a sense of fear, but it was fleeting as if it was an illusion.

The altar in front of him seemed to have some kind of magic, and it actually made Ye Xuan feel that it was a little familiar. It was probably because of the heart.

According to the high priest, the heart had been growing in the altar for a thousand years. It had been affected by the black Qi in his body and flew out in advance, so it was not fully mature yet.

Ye Xuan couldn’t guarantee that if this heart had matured and its original owner really came, would the system still have a way to get rid of it? He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to stand here in one piece at the moment. Thinking of this, he felt a lingering fear.

Ye Xuan frowned. He didn’t like this feeling. Although this heart didn’t do him any harm at the moment, Qian Yuan was right. It was hard to guarantee that it wouldn’t resurrect in the future.

He subconsciously touched his chest. “Even if it’s not a threat for now, I have to deal with it as soon as possible.”

After all, this heart wasn’t his, so he had to be careful and respectful. Ye Xuan didn’t forget that the original owner of this heart was a powerful existence, a behemoth that he couldn’t deal with at all.

Originally, Ye Xuan had wanted to ask the system for help to get rid of this heart. It was probably because there was no life-threatening reason, so the system didn’t respond. He had to think of another way.

Qian Yuan still had Shen Changling to protect him. Perhaps it was because he no longer had the heart to keep watch, but although Qian Yuan’s strength was still suppressed, it was not as much as before. At this moment, he had already recovered half of his strength.

“When I chant the incantation later, if there’s anything strange, you must stop me immediately.”

It was only Ye Xuan’s guess that the incantation was related to the altar. If it wasn’t and instead triggered other abnormal movements, it would be troublesome, so no one dared to take it lightly.

“Don’t worry, we’ll watch over you from the side.”

Ye Xuan placed his hands on the altar and read out the words in his mind. He heard a buzzing sound and an inexplicable feeling swept through his body. At the same time, his heart seemed to beat faster.

This feeling was unprecedented. At this moment, he seemed to have mastered absolute power. On the altar, he was the natural master. All the creatures on the altar were under his control.

Ye Xuan subconsciously looked at Qian Yuan and Shen Changling beside him. It seemed that if he wanted to, these two would become sacrifices. If they contributed their life force and essence, then Ye Xuan would be able to obtain supreme glory.

At this moment, his desire for power had reached its peak. As long as he had power, there was nothing to fear!

There seemed to be a voice in Ye Xuan’s mind that kept bewitching him. It said something along the lines of those who achieved great things didn’t care about the trifles. From ancient times to the present, which grand hegemony didn’t have white bones under their feet?

At this moment, what was the big deal about sacrificing two people? Let alone one high priest, even if ten more came, it would not be a problem.

These sacrifices were necessary, and the price he had to pay now was only two lives. For Ye Xuan, it was an easy thing to do as long as he thought about doing it.

Ye Xuan’s voice was a little sluggish as he chanted the incantation. He seemed to be a little tempted, and he subconsciously looked at the two people beside him.
