Chapter 302: Invitation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Because of the old man’s backlash, Ye Tianzheng and Jiang Rong were sent back to their cell not long after.

It was a cell that was only ten square meters in size, and dark inside.

The sounds of mockery and fists pounding on the cage rang out continuously, and there were ripples of energy generated from the restrictions placed on it.

“Yo, the two pieces of trash are back. They’re actually fine?”

“You two should come here and die! Hahaha!”

Ye Tianzheng did not spare a glance for them, and simply spoke to his wife.

“That person just now said that Chen’er is still alive…”

Jiang Rong nodded.

“I’m not certain, but despite the years that have passed, I’ve always felt that way, as if some kind of connection hasn’t been broken. Perhaps it’s my instinct as a mother, but I really feel that Chen’er isn’t dead.”

Ye Tianzheng was lost in thought, looking blankly at the ceiling. After a long time, he said, “Even if Little Chen didn’t die, he would have been injured after falling from such a high place. I wonder if he will…”

He sat on the bed with some difficulty. Then, he rolled up his pants, which revealed a mechanical prosthetic leg.

Ye Tianzheng had lost a leg!

He rotated the prosthetic leg with one hand and took it off.

“Now that I’ve become a cripple, 1 feel that it isn’t too bad for us to be stuck here. 1 just hope that Chen’er won’t get himself involved in our matters…”

“Jiang Rong, 1 once promised you that 1 would bring you back to the Jiang family in glory. Now it seems that this wish will never come true in my lifetime.”

Jiang Rong shook her head violently, her eyes filled with tears. “Tianzheng, it doesn’t matter anymore. After so many years, I realized that only a few things matter, and that is not one of them.”

“Besides, we still have Little Chen. 1 don’t know why, but 1 have the feeling that Little Chen will come to the Ghost Prison to look for us. This feeling is getting stronger and stronger.”

Ye Tianzheng was stunned. He took out a photo from his pocket and fell into a state of deep thought.

In the photo, there was a young man standing between the couple…

At this moment, in the stone room of the Ghost Prison, the lightning energy within the old man’s body had finally dissipated, thanks to the assistance of the five sage-like experts beside him.

He opened his eyes and looked at the people around him. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, sirs, for saving me.”

“What happened?” one of the experts asked.

“How could you be injured inside the Ghost Prison?””

The goateed old man’s eyes were still filled with fear as he said, “Sir, the origin of the seal in my body has been broken. The seals on all of the people who have entered the Ghost Prison have disappeared… 1 can even feel that my cultivation level has fallen and that I’ve suffered a very serious injury…”

The five experts frowned, “How can someone break the seal from so far away? Is there such a terrifying expert in the world?”

The old man nodded and said, “The other party’s strength is too terrifying. I wasn’t even able to put up a fight. Please make the decision.”

The stone room fell into a long silence.

Suddenly, one of the experts said, “That person destroyed the source of the seal to hide something. It seems that he is investigating the Ghost Prison. How about this? Investigate all of the people who have entered the Ghost Prison in the past thirty years.”

“You’ll definitely find clues when you question them one by one! 1 want to know who dares to spy on the Ghost Prison!”

The old man’s eyes lit up and he nodded. “Yes, sir. 1’11 do it now.”

Jiangnan Province, Medicine King Valley.

The alchemy room had fallen silent once more, and Xiang Chengdong’s body also finally touched the ground. He could clearly feel that something was taken from him, but this made him feel relieved instead of anxious.

Xiang Chengdong glanced at Ye Chen and cupped his hands.

“Mr. Ye, what a remarkable technique.”

“Tell me about the Ghost Prison. The seal in your body has been broken, and it will no longer harm you.”

Ye Chen’s cold voice rang out.

Xiang Chengdong nodded and quickly said, “Mr. Ye, the Ghost Prison will only open once a month, at the beginning of the month. The entrance constantly changes, and it happens to open around midnight. The first time I entered was near the Thousand Spirits Park in Capital City. The second time I entered should be at Xihong Gate. The last time I entered was at the west side of the Happy Valley in Capital City.”

“Every time it opens, there will be a person wearing a mask waiting to guide you. In order to enter, this person must guide you.”

“Coincidentally, a few days ago, someone from the Ghost Prison contacted me again. He said that the Ghost Prison will open again next month and asked me to go again. This time, he asked me to find a hotel near Capital City’s University to stay in.”

“My guess is that the next time the Ghost Prison opens, the entrance should be near there.”

Ye Chen’s body froze. Then, the power in his body disappeared completely.

The black-robed old man had already left his body, and the Samsara Graveyard had fallen into silence.

He narrowed his eyes and muttered, “Capital City University? It seems that after settling the matters in Jiangnan Province, it’ll be time to go to Capital City.”

Xiang Chengdong thought of something and asked curiously, “Mr. Ye, you’re not planning to barge into Ghost Prison, are you? You can’t take that place lightly.”

‘There are many experts guarding the Ghost Prison. Back then, when 1 entered, 1 personally saw an expert crush an existence whose strength was similar to mine with a single finger… It was extremely terrifying… Although Mr. Ye is very strong, 1 think you still have to be careful.”

Ye Chen did not answer directly. Instead, he said, “When you leave for the capital, remember to inform me.”

“Yes, Mr. Ye,” Xiang Chengdong said.

“I’m going to the valley to get some herbs.”

Ye Chen pushed open the door and prepared to leave.

Xiang Chengdong nodded repeatedly.

“Go ahead, Mr. Ye. 1 have the right to decide on the matters of the Medicine Alliance. No one will dare to say anything about it. It’s just that…”

Xiang Chengdong suddenly hesitated.

“But what?”

Xiang Chengdong’s eyes narrowed and he made up his mind.

“I wonder if Mr. Ye is willing to join the Medicine Alliance. Even if it’s in name,

1 won’t say anything even if Mr. Ye wants my position as chairman.”

He really wanted Ye Chen to join the Medicine Alliance, as it would allow them to rise to power.

“Mr. Ye’s methods are simply heavenly… If you join the Medicine Alliance, we will definitely soar to the skies!”

Ye Chen shook his head and refused.

“I don’t like being tied down, and 1 don’t like taking up positions. I’m sorry.”

Xiang Chengdong was a little disappointed. Suddenly, he thought of something and quickly said, “Mr. Ye, how about this? Our Medicine Alliance will grant you the honor of being our chief consultant. You just need to drop by and advise us occasionally. The position of chief consultant of the Medicine Alliance is not ordinary.. You will be able to use all of the resources of the Medicine Alliance in Huaxia, and you will have the highest authority in any pharmacy, school, and area managed by the Medicine Alliance!”
