The Fox Emperor stood in one spot, graceful and charming, with crystal clear skin and boundless seduction. Her watery eyes flowed with spring like charm yet also carried doubt. “You know the person in the coffin?”
The Fox Emperor stared straight at Ye Chu. Her red lips parted lightly as her voice carried a strange seductive charm that stirred the heart and was extremely pleasant to hear.
Ye Chu stood dazed in place. He had never been more shocked than at this moment. He stared blankly at the person in the coffin. This person was too familiar. It would not be an exaggeration to say he was one of the people he knew best in this world.
Ye Chu rubbed his eyes hard, wanting to find even the slightest difference. But the person in the coffin was identical to him, even the faint almost invisible small mole on the face was exactly the same. It was as if carved from the same mould with no difference at all.
“How could this be possible?” Ye Chu was shocked inside as he stared fixedly ahead.
Ye Chu’s unusual reaction made Bai Xin, Bai Rou and the Fox Emperor all stare at him. Especially the Fox Emperor standing beside her. Her peerlessly beautiful brows lifted slightly as her clear gaze fell on Ye Chu.
The Fox Emperor wanted to know why Ye Chu was shocked. Only by knowing this was there a slim chance of getting out.
Boom… boom…
The palace still erupted with waves of intent, but these intents were suppressed and all blocked by the coffin. The intent no longer harmed a single person. The cultivators below did not feel even a trace of the intent.
This made some people delighted and equally surprised at how extraordinary the coffin was. Even the intent that could easily injure the Fox Emperor was casually blocked by the coffin. Just what exactly was this coffin and the corpse inside it?
Only Ye Chu was muttering to himself there. He simply could not believe it. This person looked so much like the old madman.
That’s right. It was the old madman. It was carved from exactly the same mould, simply identical. Even twins would not be this similar.
Twins always had some differences, but the person in the coffin and the old madman had no differences at all. Ye Chu had lived with the old madman for quite some time and was naturally extremely familiar with him. There was no way he could be mistaken.
“How could this be?” Huge waves surged in Ye Chu’s heart. The corpse before him was the old madman. Moreover from the traces on the coffin it had existed for who knew how many years. In other words the old madman in the coffin had been buried for who knew how many years.
This was secondary. The strangest thing was that the old madman was clearly still alive and well. Could there be someone in the world who looked exactly like the old madman without the slightest difference? Was this an ancestor of the old madman?
Ye Chu let out a light breath and stared straight at the huge palace. He wondered how the old madman was connected to the Azure Flame Divine Palace.
Ye Chu felt these were all unsolvable mysteries. With an identical corpse Ye Chu always felt it was the old madman. But the old madman was clearly still alive and well and was probably at Wu Xin Peak right now.
But how to explain what was before him? Ye Chu did not believe a person could be similar to this extent. Yet he could not explain everything in front of him.
“You know him?” The Fox Emperor continued asking Ye Chu. Her beautiful eyes stared at him with an equally strange expression.
The Azure Flame Forbidden Land was an unparalleled place. Anything inside it had an extraordinary origin that was peerless. From the coffin’s current performance it was clear it was a world shocking item. The corpse inside it had probably been a peerless figure in its time.
Ye Chu was so young. Could he possibly be connected to something from the Azure Flame Divine Palace?
“I do not know him. I just find him somewhat familiar.” Ye Chu shook his head. This person naturally could not be the old madman. No matter how similar Ye Chu felt it was he could only think so.
At this moment Ye Chu thought that if he could fly back to Wu Xin Peak and drag the old madman over perhaps the secret could be solved.
“Familiar with whom?” The Fox Emperor continued asking.
Ye Chu looked at the Fox Emperor’s peerlessly beautiful and seductive fair face and shook his head without continuing.
Bai Xin and Bai Rou had already walked over. Seeing Ye Chu actually ignore the Fox Emperor and not answer they shouted angrily, “How audacious. The Fox Emperor is asking you and you dare not reply?”
Ye Chu glanced at the two women and ignored Bai Xin and Bai Rou. He stepped towards the coffin.
“Reckless fool.” Bai Xin snorted angrily. She could not stand Ye Chu’s arrogant attitude that looked down on everything. He was merely at the Profound Fate realm. What qualifications did he have to be so arrogant?
Bai Xin wanted to take action and teach this fellow a lesson. But the Fox Emperor stopped her, making Bai Xin unable to hold back as she said urgently, “My lady, this brat’s master back then…”
Bai Xin suddenly stopped mid sentence. Her gaze shot fiercely towards the coffin. The shock in her eyes could not be concealed. Her red lips opened wide as she stared blankly at the person in the coffin. Huge waves surged in her heart.
Previously Bai Xin had not noticed who the person in the coffin resembled. But when Ye Chu’s master was mentioned she recalled that person who had killed his way to Fox Mountain. She had seen him from afar once and he looked exactly like the person in the coffin now.
If it had not been mentioned she who had only seen the old madman from afar would not have remembered.
“It is him.” Bai Xin stared blankly at the corpse in the coffin. With terror her whole body began to tremble.
Bai Xin’s unusual reaction made the Fox Emperor ask curiously, “Who exactly is he? Why are you like this?”
“My lady. This corpse looks exactly like Ye Chu’s master. Fox Elder once had a hundred years of lifespan cut off by him.” Bai Xin replied.
The Fox Emperor was also shaken inside at this moment. She knew about Fox Elder having a hundred years of lifespan cut off but that person was someone they could not afford to provoke so they had let it go. She just had not expected the person in the coffin to be connected to him.
People who looked exactly the same naturally had a deep connection. Two unrelated people might look similar but for both to be so peerlessly extraordinary was almost impossible.
“He really looks like Ye Chu’s master?” The Fox Emperor stared at the corpse in the coffin. Her heart was greatly shaken. For the current peak master of Wu Xin Peak Fox Mountain still had some records. Especially since Fox Mountain had personally explained it to her so she understood it even more thoroughly.
That was a complete madman. In the Emotion Domain few people dared to provoke him. There might be forces that could afford to but this was a mad dog, and one with extraordinary strength. If truly provoked he was the kind who would fight you to the death with desperate bites.
Even if someone could really kill him their own family would probably regret it to the point of ruin.
Therefore the top forces in the Emotion Domain all knew it was best not to provoke this madman.
The Fox Emperor’s understanding of the old madman was only this much but now it seemed this was only the most insignificant part. If this corpse really resembled that madman he definitely held world shocking secrets.
Moreover the secret definitely involved the Azure Flame Divine Palace.
Thinking of the legends about the Azure Flame Divine Palace the Fox Emperor could not stay calm. If that madman was truly connected to the Azure Flame Divine Palace it was something that could shake the entire Emotion Domain.
“In the future do not shout about beating or killing Ye Chu.” The Fox Emperor suddenly said to Bai Xin.
“Why?” Bai Xin did not understand.
“His master is not someone easy to provoke.” The Fox Emperor said to Bai Xin.
Bai Xin bit her lip then nodded. “We do not dare to kill him but making him suffer a little the madman probably would not mind.”
The Fox Emperor still wanted to say something. After all Ye Chu and the others had shown her kindness. But before she could speak Bai Xin said, “If we do not teach Ye Chu a proper lesson would he not take advantage for nothing?”
These words left the Fox Emperor stunned. She looked at Bai Xin in confusion, not knowing what advantage had made Bai Xin so angry.
