The Supreme Sword Master
Tang Ye was shocked by this furious shout to the point of hastily letting the white fox go, and his heart jerked when he saw that it was glaring furiously at him. Earlier, he’d merely felt that this white colored fellow before him was cute, yet he’d forgotten that it was an existence comparable to a Spirit Realm expert. Moreover, it was even a woman! Tang Ye smiled embarrassedly and said, “Sorry, it won’t happen again!” “Do you know that you can’t touch the tail of a fox?” The white fox stared Tang Ye in the eye while its voice carried a trace of ghastly coldness. “Why?” Tang Ye was puzzled. “I always embrace the little fellow, and I’ve touched its tail!” The fox gazed at Tang Ye for a short while, and when it noticed that Tang Ye didn’t seem like he was lying, it immediately glanced coldly at Tang Ye before transforming into a ray of white light that entered Tang Ye’s body. At the same time, a voice suddenly appeared by Tang Ye’s ear. “Right, I forgot to tell you that I have quite a few enemies. Like the Grand Qin Empire, the Flower Palace, the Snow Palace. In short, all the renowned powers in the southern territory seem to be my enemies. If they know that I’ve made an appearance, then they’ll definitely not let me live. So, for the sake of our safety, it’s best that you don’t offend a Spirit Realm expert in the future, and even if you do offend one, it’s best that you don’t ask me to lend you a hand. Because once I do, then you’ll become the public enemy of the entire southern territory!” As soon as she finished speaking, the scene before Tang Ye’s eyes gradually blurred. At this moment, Tang Ye thought in his heart. I’ve been tricked! After a few breaths of mine, when Tang Ye opened his eyes once more, he’d returned to the chamber from before, whereas, Qin Xiyue was staring fixedly at him. “She utilized an illusion against you?” asked Qin Xiyue when she saw Tang Ye open his eyes. Tang Ye nodded, and then he laughed bitterly. He’d originally thought that he’d recruited a formidable bodyguard, yet never had he expected that it would actually be a root of trouble, and it was a root of trouble that would cause him to become the public enemy of the southern territory from even the slightest bit of carelessness. He didn’t doubt the woman because the Shang Dynasty had slaughtered the disciples of numerous powers. So, it was reasonable for the woman to say that those powers wouldn’t let her go. “Where’s she?” Qin Xiyue didn’t ask what the woman had discussed with Tang Ye because she knew her limits. Tang Ye hesitated for a moment before he said, “She’s with the little fellow!” There were some things that didn’t have to be concealed from this woman that stood before him. Moreover, even if he did conceal it from her, it would probably be unable to deceive this shrewd woman. He believed that Qin Xiyue had already roughly guessed that he possessed some sort of treasure, and she merely didn’t know the specifics. Sure enough, a wisp of a smile arose on the corners of Qin Xiyue’s mouth when Tang Ye told her the truth, and then she said, “Then what should we do now?” “She promised to take us to Emperor Zhou’s true tomb!” Tang Ye smiled, and then he walked over to the coffin and looked at Qin Xiyue as he said, “Come over here!” Qin Xiyue had just arrived by Tang Ye’s side when the chamber suddenly started trembling. After that, the spot where Tang Ye and Qin Xiyue stood started to descend gradually, and in next to no time, they’d gone underground. After an unknown period of time, Tang Ye felt that they’d arrived on the ground, and he opened his eyes. The scene before him caused his eyelids to twitch. Standing before him was a chamber that was over 10 times larger than the previous chamber. Of course, most importantly, this chamber was made from gold! Yes, the walls in the surroundings and the floor he stood on were all made of gold! In next to no time, Tang Ye’s gaze shot towards the center at the chamber. Just like the chamber from before, there was a coffin at the center of this chamber. However, unlike the previous chamber, this chamber had 12 statues of guards in golden armor standing around the coffin.“Is this Emperor Zhou’s coffin?” Tang Ye asked in a low voice as he looked at the coffin. “It should be!” Qin Xiyue said from the side, “All those years ago, Emperor Zhou had 12 Gold Guards, and these 12 gold statues ought to be his guards from all those years ago. So, the coffin guarded by these 12 Gold Guards should belong to Emperor Zhou.” “12 Gold Guard?” Tang Ye was puzzled. Qin Xiyue nodded, and she had a solemn expression as she said, “All of these 12 Gold Guards are experts that had attained the peak of the Exalt Realm, and they could be said to have instilled fear in the Grand Qin and all the various sects. If Emperor Zhou hadn’t desired to eliminate all the sects that stood supreme above the Shang Dynasty’s imperial authority and caused all the powers to join forces against the Shang Dynasty, then with the presence of these 12 Gold Guards, the Shang Dynasty wouldn’t have been annihilated all those years ago!” “Eliminate the six great powers?” Tang Ye was shocked and said, “Is that even possible?” “Of course it is!” Qin Xiyue said in a low voice, “All those years ago, Emperor Zhou himself was the number two expert of the southern territory, and he even had the 12 Gold Guards under his command, the assistance of the Grand Preceptor Shengong Mao who was skilled in Theurgy and talismans, and countless troops in his army of Profounders. At that time, even the Darkbeast Empire feared the Shang Dynasty!”
