Ye Tian’s refusal not only failed to quell Wu Zhenwang’s rage, but instead ignited it completely.

Wu Zhenwang’s eyes were bloodshot with redness.

Wu Zhenwang took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "What, Ye Tian, are you scared?!"

Questioning!

A questioning full of raging fury!

Ye Tian merely smiled and paid no more attention...

Instead, he spoke to Wu Bubai beside him, "Senior, let’s continue. The architecture of the Martial Sect is fascinating. Please continue to introduce it to me."

"Alright..." Wu Bubai, though feeling inexplicably bizarre and surprised, could only agree.

At this moment, Wu Zhenwang was truly erupting like a volcano, and his eyes spewed fire as if about to say something to humiliate Ye Tian.

But before he could speak.

Jin Qingcheng snorted, "No self-awareness at all. He refuses your challenge because he’s afraid of you? Obviously, you’re too weak. My man refused your so-called challenge because he’s afraid he might accidentally kill you, not out of fear. You really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth."

Ye Tian was too lazy to respond.

But Jin Qingcheng wasn’t so easygoing.

She was direct.

Without any scruples.

As soon as she spoke her proud words.

Immediately.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Even the corner of Wu Bubai’s mouth twitched slightly.

And then...

"Hahahahaha..."

Loud laughter erupted, and many people from the Martial Sect, especially the young ones, started laughing, mocking Jin Qingcheng’s ignorance.

Yes, Jin Qingcheng’s background is enormous, frighteningly so.

Her medical skills are terrifyingly superior.

Her appearance is breathtaking, even more so than a fairy.

But in martial arts, she is really a novice!!!

No wonder she was tricked into the hands of an outsider kid who isn’t even in the King Martial Realm.

Where did the courage come from to claim your man refused Wu Zhenwang’s challenge out of disdain, afraid of killing Wu Zhenwang?

Are you crazy?

Late True Martial Realm at best, do you believe that before Wu Zhenwang, you wouldn’t last a single move and would be killed instantly?

Wu Zhenwang is not only in the King Martial Realm, but also a super demon of the Martial Sect who can cross one or two minor realms in combat!

"Miss Jin, when words are spoken, they’re like spilled water, and you have to be responsible. Are you sure you want to overpraise your man like this?!!!" Wu Zhenwang sneered.

Meanwhile.

Above the Wuming Sea.

A figure was flying rapidly.

Heading towards the giant vortex at the end of the Wuming Sea. It was the Martial Sect’s Third Elder, Wu Buliu.

A few days ago, Wu Buliu was sent by Wu Bubai to investigate the sudden death of Xiao Rugu.

These past few days, everything has been thoroughly investigated.

There was even a battle image record on a Mystical Shadow Stone obtained at great cost from a martial arts practitioner in the War Abyss Plane.

"Ye Tian, Ye Tian, Ye Tian, a young man barely over 20 years old, killed Xiao Rugu!!! This news is so damn shocking!" Wu Buliu was flying very, very fast because he wanted to return to the Martial Sect with the news as quickly as possible. Under the sea.

In the ancient city.

"Alright, for challenges and martial contests, wait for the Martial God Platform." Wu Bubai’s indisputable voice shattered all the mocking discussions.

Although deep down, Wu Bubai also felt that Ye Tian might be overconfident, Wu Zhenwang’s character was somewhat impulsive, not deep in scheming, easily angered, and lacking in mental state; however, his talent and strength in martial arts were beyond doubt.

Especially since Wu Zhenwang had comprehended the Martial Arts Will inside the Nine-story Tower back then, though it was only a half-step purple will, he also mastered an ultra-advanced martial arts divine ability and activated the Battle Body, all rare and promising features; speaking of which, the Battle Body is a one in billions martial arts physique.

A possessor of the Battle Body has superior combat power in the same realm, and even cross-realm combat is common, becoming fiercer the more they fight, and in the same realm, nearly invincible. It must be noted that although Ye Tian’s realm has advanced considerably, it’s still a full major realm lower than Wu Zhenwang’s.

However, though presently Wu Bubai feels Ye Tian is probably not yet a match for Wu Zhenwang, he has high expectations for Ye Tian’s future, believing Ye Tian excels in every aspect, and thus cherishes his talent and deeply appreciates him.

With Wu Bubai speaking up, even Wu Zhenwang could only suppress all anger and emotions, silently clenching his fists, following along behind, waiting solely for the Martial God Platform.

The other young members of the Martial Sect followed suit.

"Ye, come, I’ll continue to show you around." Suppressing some thoughts, Wu Bubai continued introducing the Martial Sect’s architecture to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian, too, appeared purely interested and focused on the architecture of the Martial Sect, seemingly not concerned at all, not worried about the final Martial God Platform.

"Sister Qingcheng, does Young Master Ye truly have confidence?" Yun Qingqing quietly asked Jin Qingcheng.

"Of course." Jin Qingcheng nodded. Yun Qingqing felt much more at ease then and began to look forward to it.

"This is a forbidden area of the Martial Sect."

As they walked, Wu Bubai suddenly pointed to a village ahead and said, this village is very unique, appearing ethereal and ancient, like a reflection, not quite real. The village is small, yet occupies the core position at the center of the ancient city. Inside the village, there are only some dilapidated houses and some stone paths, as if they’ve existed for a very long time.

"A forbidden area?"

Ye Tian paused, taking a closer look at this eerie village, unable to resist asking, "Why is it a forbidden area?"

"Once, many in the Martial Sect entered this village, but they all died inside it, with no one able to come out alive." Wu Bubai took a deep breath and said.

In actuality, Wu Bubai wasn’t speaking the entire truth.

The death rate among those who entered this village is indeed high, 99.99999%, almost 100, but it wasn’t that no one ever came out alive.

Once, there was someone who went in and came back out alive, only one person.

That person was named Xiao Rugu.

And after Xiao Rugu came out, he brought with him the Great Demon Heart Sutra that led to his meteoric rise, making him a full-fledged traitor to the Martial Sect and veering toward the Demon Path.

This village itself is extremely dangerous and strange, and the sole time someone emerged alive led to Xiao Rugu’s betrayal and descent into demonry, causing the Martial Sect a great price and fading into obscurity for tens of thousands of years.

This village has become a taboo and indeed a sort of unspeakable secret within the Martial Sect.

Wu Bubai and the high ranks of the Martial Sect have tried numerous times to destroy this village, yet no matter the effort, they’ve never succeeded.

"I see." Ye Tian took one long look at the village, withdrawing his gaze, but casually asked, "What is the name of this village?"

"Bone Burying Village." Wu Bubai said, then wanted to leave quickly, continuing to walk forward.
