Chapter 490 Black & White

In a place filled with many ponds, several women were hovering above each pond, and all of them were wearing the same plain white dress.

The woman who was hovering in the largest pond looked so beautiful but serious, and her body exuded a soothing yet terrifying aura. She has long black hair that is tied up at the back; her wide black eyes look so sharp with thick eyebrows above them; her nose is not sharp but not flat either; and her wide and thick pink lips look sexy. Her figure is quite tall and slim; her nice curves are clearly visible, but her twin peaks are not that big.

And behind her was a woman also wearing a long plain white dress, and her long black hair was left loose. Her face is not less beautiful, with slanted brown eyes, a slender nose, and small and thin lips. Her figure is slightly taller and more slender, and her curves also look nice, but her twin peaks are smaller than the first woman.

The first woman then spoke to the woman behind her. "Yan Chenyu, we will be going to the ancient ruin early tomorrow, so I need you to prepare well."

"Are we the only ones going there, Sister Yan Qianying?" Yan Chenyu asked.

Yan Qianying nodded and explained it to her. "Our sect is a new sect; not many people know about our sect, so our members are also not many, and their strength is still weak when compared to other sects. Moreover, the ancient ruin is extremely dangerous, and I myself almost died in that place back then, so we can't bring too many people with us."

"I see." Yan Chenyu nodded in understanding. "But do you think that person will come to the ancient ruin too?"

"He will definitely come there. Yan Jin is extremely greedy, so it's impossible for him to miss this opportunity." Yan Qianying replied hatefully.

"Allright then, I'll get everything ready right away." After saying that, Yan Chenyu immediately left the place.

Yan Qianying then looked up at the sky, and her eyes became extremely sharp. She clenched her fists tightly and muttered to herself. "Although you are my brother, I will never forgive you for the death of my son, and if I had the chance, I would definitely kill you with my own hands, Yan Jin."

Alchemist Guild

"Why are you smiling to yourself, Sect Master Yan?" An old man asked Yan Jin, the leader of the Alchemist Guild.

Yan Jin turned to him, and he was still laughing. "Haha! Old Du, the ancient ruin, will open tomorrow, and the two of us will go there to explore areas we haven't explored before."

"Oh? It's already time?" Yan Jin nodded to him, and Du Jian asked again. "So when are we going there?"

"We'll be leaving early in the morning." Yan Jin was then silent for a moment before he sighed and continued. "I hope Qianying doesn't go there; after all this time, she must still blame me for her son's death."

Du Jian's expression turned sad upon hearing that, and he then said. "But we all know that her son's death has nothing to do with you, Sect Master Yan. If you tell Qianying the truth, I'm sure she won't blame you anymore."

"Sigh." Yan Jin sighed and shook his head. "I promised his son that I wouldn't tell Qiangyin the truth, and I won't break my own promise, so just let her hate me. Old Du, even if she wants to kill me, I hope you don't tell her the truth, because I don't want her to suffer from it."

"I understand, Sect Master Yan." Du Jian replied with a heavy sigh in his heart.

After they finished having fun, Xia Tian immediately escorted Xiang Yin and Yu Suya back to the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant, and he then brought Yue and Shen Huang back to the Star Moon Sect.

After he arrived in his room, Xia Tian immediately laid the sleeping Shen Huang onto his bed, and he also sent Yue to the Ancient Sacred Realm.

[Are you going to use that technique now, master?]

"Yes." Xia Tian then pressed his forehead against Shen Huang's forehead and used the Heavenly Heart Art on her.

Since Shen Huang was in a deep sleep, Xia Tian could easily enter her consciousness. But unexpectedly, her consciousness was divided into two areas, and the two areas were completely opposite each other.

One area was very bright and filled with light, and another area was just pitch darkness.

"What the hell is this!? How can her consciousness be like this? This is the first time I've seen something like this." Xia Tian was talking to himself as he looked at the two areas in shock. He then walked around the brightly lit area and found a glass coffin.

Suddenly, Shen Huang appeared from within the glass coffin. "Big brother? How did you get into my consciousness?"

"I'm sorry, Little Huang." Xia Tian rubbed Shen Huang's little head. "I sensed something odd about you, so I purposefully entered into your consciousness to check it out."

Shen Huang puffed out her cheeks and spoke indignantly. "You shouldn't do this, Big Brother!"

"I know, I'm sorry." Xia Tian then carried Shen Huang and pointed at the dark area as he asked her. "Do you know what's in that darkness?"

"I don't know." Shen Huang shook her head at him, and she then explained flatly. "I've tried to enter that dark area several times, but every time I was about to enter there, something or someone knocked me back."

Xia Tian raised his eyebrows upon hearing that, he immediately walked towards the dark area and stood right on the border of the two areas, and he then stretched out his hand and his hand was able to cross the border.

"Eh? How did your hand get in there, Big Brother?" Shen Huang asked as she blinking repeatdlyrepeatedly; she then stretched out her hand as well, but her hand could not pass through the border as if there were a barrier blocking it. "My hand can't cross this border, Big Brother."

"That's really weird." Xia Tian then put Shen Huang down and said. "Little Huang, you wait here. I will try to go inside."

"No!" Shen Huang screamed and grabbed Xia Tian's hand tightly. "Big brother, you don't go in there, the darkness is very dangerous."

"It's okay; if it's dangerous, I will definitely come out right away." Xia Tian said as he gently patted Shen Huang's head. He then removed her small hand from him and walked into the darkness. Since the place was very dark, he used his light energy to illuminate it. However, the moment he did that, an extremely powerful aura assaulted him and sent him flying back. "Guah!"

*Bam*

"Big brother!" Shen Huang shouted and ran over to Xia Tian, who had fallen to the ground. "Are you okay, Big Brother?"

"I'm fine, I just—" Xia Tian suddenly froze as he saw the two pitch-black eyes from that area of darkness, and he felt a chill go down his spine, but they only appeared for a moment before disappearing again. 'What the hell are those eyes? What exactly is hidden behind the darkness? I've never seen eyes like that before.'

Shen Huang then helped him up and said. "Big brother, you better get out of my consciousness right now. I don't know what's in that darkness, but I can feel that something inside is angry with you."

"Alright, I'll be out of your consciousness right now."

After Xia Tian disappeared, a black shadow appeared in front of Shen Huang. "Why did you let him into our consciousness?"

"Hey, you stupid! We can't communicate with him directly, so how can I let him in here?" Shen Huang turned angry at the shadow. "Anyway, you already know that he's not an ordinary person, so you shouldn't be surprised if he was able to enter our consciousness by force."

"Humph!" The shadow snorted and disappeared again.

Shen Huang shook her head and sighed. "Big Brother, I'm sorry, but you can't find out the truth about us yet, or else Fate will punish us severely."

After that, Shen Huang returned to the glass coffin and lay down inside.

2. Otherworldly-Cultivator : There is no doubt about Chen Li's character, he adapts quickly, smart, gentle towards those closest to him, and sometimes wise. But he is also psychotic, vile, ruthless, and violent towards his enemies.
