Chapter 3836: Chapter 3836: The Struggle Between the Dark Domain and the Four Great Domains

Sure, here’s the translation of the provided text:

Gu Xuan immediately shook his head, asserting decisively, "Impossible! This kid is a true genius, well, perhaps slightly inferior to me, but he definitely won’t die so easily!"

Xiao Rou sighed, Gu Mansion Master’s old habit had flared up again.

Does she really think that there are monstrous martial artists like her everywhere in this world?

Just as Xiao Rou was about to speak, to tell Gu Xuan this cruel reality, a sudden explosion sounded from the pile of rubble behind her!

Xiao Rou’s face paled in shock, and she swiftly turned around.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a man slowly walked out.

Ye Chen’s mouth was marked with a trace of blood, he rubbed his slightly sore neck, coldly gazing at Gu Xuan and said, "Young Master Gu, your greeting is indeed hard to digest for me."

Xiao Rou looked at Ye Chen with extreme horror, as if she had seen a ghost. How is this kid still alive?

Not only alive?

Except for the bloodstain at the corner of his mouth, he seemed to have little injury!

Even if a Qiankun Realm exists, taking a punch from Gu Xuan wouldn’t be hopping around like Ye Chen!

For a moment, Xiao Rou looked at Ye Chen as if he were a monster!

Gu Xuan smiled and said, "If I want to make you unable to bear it, that punch earlier was far from enough, right?"

As she spoke, she waved her injured fist at Ye Chen, saying, "Ever since I stepped into this position, you’re the first one to hurt me. My judgment was indeed correct!"

Ye Chen stared at Gu Xuan, his gaze flickering slightly, "You’ve also cultivated the Destruction Divine Dao?"

Only those who have cultivated the Destruction Divine Dao, or one of the Primitive Three Daos comparable to the Destruction Divine Dao, could shatter his Extinction Divine Light so easily, right?

At the moment when his Extinction Divine Light struck Gu Xuan’s fist, Ye Chen sensed a familiar fluctuation from her!

Upon Ye Chen’s words, Xiao Rou’s eyes instantly turned sharp, and the temperature in the grand hall rapidly dropped, a hint of killing intent emerged!

Gu Xuan possessing the Destruction Divine Dao is an absolute secret, also one of Gu Xuan’s trump cards. If Ye Chen were to leak this information, it might lead to unimaginable consequences!

However, Gu Xuan smiled somewhat proudly, as if boasting, "That’s right, my attainment in the Destruction Divine Dao surpasses yours by quite a lot!"

Xiao Rou was dumbfounded looking at Gu Xuan, why did the Lord admit it just like that!

In the next moment, her gaze turned completely fierce, since that’s the case, then she must completely eliminate Ye Chen!

After all, only the dead can keep secrets, right?

But at this moment, Gu Xuan spoke to Xiao Rou, "Xiao Rou, there’s no need for that. Ye Shitian wouldn’t leak that I’ve cultivated the Destruction Divine Dao, since he also possesses the Destruction Divine Dao, if this matter is exposed in the Dark Domain, it would be even more detrimental to him."

Xiao Rou said, "But..."

Gu Xuan waved her hand, "No need to say more!"

It’s hard to find a monstrous martial artist slightly inferior in talent to herself, how could she let him die just like that!

Ye Chen said flatly, "Young Master Gu, you didn’t call me here just to hit me, did you?"

Gu Xuan smiled at Ye Chen, "Of course not, I said that was just a greeting. I invited you here to help me with something."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Rou was shocked, is Gu Xuan going to ask Ye Chen to do that thing?

Originally, Gu Xuan hadn’t made up her mind, but seeing Ye Chen’s performance now, she has already decided Ye Chen is the best candidate to complete this task!

Ye Chen said expressionlessly, "With Young Master Gu’s strength, do you need my help? If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."

Having said that, Ye Chen turned to walk towards the hall’s exit.

He didn’t have much goodwill towards this woman who suddenly hit him, if it weren’t for his Spirit Moon Treasure Robe and that heaven-defying vitality, he might have already been seriously injured by this woman!

Ye Chen didn’t harbor murder intent toward Gu Xuan only because he knew Gu Xuan wasn’t trying to take his life and in the final moment, she withdrew a bit of her strength.

However, with Ye Chen’s current strength, he is definitely not Gu Xuan’s opponent.

Gu Xuan laughed, "Ye Shitian, do you think you can casually refuse a Governor of the Dark Domain?"

As her words fell, a mild pressure suddenly rose within the hall!

Though this pressure was gentle, it greatly heightened Ye Chen’s internal alarms!

He halted his steps, slowly turning around to look at Gu Xuan, "Young Master Gu, is this a threat?"

After a momentary silence, Gu Xuan spoke, "You might as well listen to the contents of the matter and the reward I offer before deciding. If you still wish to leave by then, I assure you as the Netherworld State Governor, I won’t stop you!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Rou looked at Gu Xuan with a hint of astonishment in her eyes; she knew, the Lord truly valued Ye Chen!

Though Gu Xuan often torments favored geniuses to death, Xiao Rou knows Gu Xuan is someone who genuinely cherishes talent!

If someone truly capable wins her regard, she will greatly honor them!

Otherwise, Gu Xuan wouldn’t easily compromise!

After hearing this, Ye Chen’s expression softened slightly and he nodded, "Please speak."

Gu Xuan returned to her main seat and said, "Ye Shitian, you come from the Moon Soul Domain, how do you find this Dark Domain?"

Ye Chen pondered for a moment, "Dangerous, yet filled with opportunities."

Gu Xuan smiled and said, "Indeed, the Dark Domain isn’t inferior to some places in the Planes, yet we are trapped in this eternal night for countless ages; do you think this is fair to those in the Dark Domain?"

Ye Chen’s gaze flickered slightly as he looked at Gu Xuan, "Young Master Gu, what do you mean?"

Gu Xuan’s beautiful eyes revealed a gleam of light, "Those old guys in the Bright Territory have trapped us for so many years; isn’t it time they let us out?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen’s expression changed slightly.

Gu Xuan wants to lead the people of the Dark Domain back to the Four Great Domains?

For someone like Ye Chen, entering and leaving the Four Great Domains is fine, but if martial artists from the Dark Domain enter the outside world rashly and are discovered, it could trigger a war between the Bright Territory and the Dark Domain!

Gu Xuan laughed, "Don’t look at me like that, now is not the time to wage war with the Bright Territory (Four Great Domains)."

Ye Chen asked, "What does Young Master Gu want me to do?"

Gu Xuan’s smile faded, her expression turned solemn and said, "In the Dark Domain, we possess many martial cultivation resources not found in the Bright Territory. To step out of the Dark Domain, the first step isn’t to declare war on the Four Great Domains, but to make them accept our existence!"

"If the martial artists of the Four Great Domains believe the Dark Domain existence brings them benefits, who would willingly risk stepping onto the battlefield?"

"Unfortunately, if I or any strong individuals from the Dark Domain personally go to do this, those old guys from the Four Great Domains will definitely intervene, so..."

Ye Chen interjected, "So, you need a proxy? Someone to bring the Dark Domain’s martial cultivation resources into the Four Great Domains for trade? To subtly influence the entire Four Great Domains?"

Gu Xuan smiled, "Young Master Ye, truly a clever one. Of course, this proxy mustn’t be too powerful, but also not too weak; ideally, someone whose level of cultivation hasn’t reached the Qiankun Realm yet possesses terrifying combat strength!"

"Now you understand why I sought you, don’t you?"
