Huo Yun Xie Shen

Just as Qin Anlan was preparing a vicious scheme for Ye Qingyun, waiting for him to take the bait.

Inside the death row of Heavenly Firmament Academy.

This was a terrifying place, filled with the aura of death, damp air, and the stench of rotting corpses, making it unbearable to look at.

Ye Qingyun lay in the death row, his expression vacant, his face devoid of emotion, like a walking corpse.

His cultivation was completely sealed, and he was even shackled with handcuffs and leg irons.

Shame!

For Ye Qingyun, this was an immense humiliation.

Even now, Ye Qingyun had not recovered from such disgrace.

He, Ye Qingyun, though poor in origin, had lofty ambitions and exceptional talent.

Ever since obtaining that mysterious ring three years ago, he had completely soared.

Subsequently, with his superior aptitude, he was noticed by True Person Ziwei, the Number One Female Expert of Heavenly Firmament Academy, who even took him as a personal disciple.

After that, Ye Qingyun's life was like a cheat code.

Wherever he went, he became the focus of gossip and envy.

No matter how great the difficulty, he could always turn misfortune into fortune and disaster into blessings.

However.

The situation he encountered today completely overturned Ye Qingyun's understanding.

Ye Qingyun had become accustomed to smooth sailing over the past three years.

Suddenly suffering such a severe blow, Ye Qingyun was completely stunned.

"Qin Anlan!"

"Damn Qin Anlan!"

"You dog, I will kill you, I will tear you to pieces!"

Ye Qingyun's eyes were bloodshot, his teeth gritted, venting his endless unwillingness and hatred.

Thinking of Qin Anlan's arrogant, condescending demeanor, treating everything as insignificant.

It made Ye Qingyun even more restless, his heart growing more agitated.

The suppressed feelings and resentment were indescribable, simply unbearable.

Pfft!

In his rage and inability to endure the situation, Ye Qingyun spat out another mouthful of blood, his spirit and energy completely depleted at this moment.

"Kid, you can't handle such a small setback?"

"Someone like you, what right do you have to become a strong person, to look down upon all beings."

Just then, a muffled voice suddenly came from Ye Qingyun's ring.

Hearing this voice did not calm Ye Qingyun; instead, the unwillingness and hatred on his face intensified.

The anger within him had almost materialized.

"Huo Yun Xie Shen, where have you been until now?"

"When I called for you to come out and help me earlier, why did you not respond?"

Ye Qingyun simply vented all his pent-up resentment onto the remnant soul powerhouse within the ring.

That remnant soul was named Huo Yun Xie Shen.

Ye Qingyun did not know what his strength was or what terrifying power he possessed.

According to him, he was a top-tier powerhouse in the mid-stage Saint Lord realm.

He had originally obtained a great opportunity but was targeted by a powerhouse from the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate.

When the other party, using unfair tactics, outnumbered him and attacked him by surprise, he was beaten to death by the experts from the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate.

Fortunately.

Heaven itself felt that Huo Yun Xie Shen had died too unjustly.

Although his physical body was destroyed, a wisp of his remnant soul managed to escape death and hide in this specially made ring.

Ye Qingyun obtained this ring by chance.

It was precisely with Huo Yun Xie Shen's help that Ye Qingyun achieved his current accomplishments.

It could be said without exaggeration that Huo Yun Xie Shen was one of the greatest benefactors in Ye Qingyun's life.

But everything that happened in the main hall today, Huo Yun Xie Shen did not help him.

This had caused Ye Qingyun to harbor much dissatisfaction, even making his heart grow cold.

This was the true character of a Child of Destiny.

You could help him a hundred times, and he'd take it for granted, never feeling any gratitude towards you.

But if there's even one time you don't help him...

Those Children of Destiny will start to feel dissatisfied with you, even turning into sworn enemies.

So-called Children of Destiny are all self-centered and selfish individuals.

Ye Qingyun is naturally no exception.

In his opinion...

Huo Yun Xie Shen always boasted about how mighty he was back in the day, how he struck fear into thousands of hearts.

Even the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate had to show him some respect.

But what about when it mattered most?

Faced with Qin Anlan, he was so scared he didn't even dare to fart.

Inside the ring, Huo Yun Xie Shen's remnant soul heard Ye Qingyun's dissatisfaction.

Deep down, a flicker of anger ignited.

He was the great Huo Yun Xie Shen, a powerhouse at the Saint Lord peak realm.

Tens of thousands of years ago, he was a force to be reckoned with throughout the Heavenly Flame Empire.

And now, he was being lectured by a mere ant.

Back in his day, He could have crushed a dozen ants like Ye Qingyun with a single flick of his finger.

Unfortunately...

Huo Yun Xie Shen's physical body was destroyed, and now only a wisp of his remnant soul remained.

Although he possessed the ability to kill Ye Qingyun, he didn't dare to act rashly.

The reason was simple.

Ye Qingyun still held immense value for Huo Yun Xie Shen.

Until his strength was restored, he couldn't afford to fall out with Ye Qingyun.

"A mere Qin Anlan? Naturally, I wouldn't take him seriously."

"However, at that moment, there was an extremely terrifying expert present in the hall. Their consciousness permeated the entire space."

"I am very familiar with their aura, and I even suspect that my own demise back then might have been related to this person."

"Until my strength is restored, I dare not make any rash moves."

Huo Yun Xie Shen suppressed his inner rage and offered an explanation.

Now, he was nothing more than a wisp of remnant soul.

While he still possessed powerful soul energy, he dared not reveal himself easily.

If he was careless and his old enemies found him, This wisp of remnant soul might be scattered and annihilated, never to find peace again.

After venting his frustration, Ye Qingyun gradually calmed down.

His eyes widened in shock.

"Right, you mentioned you were ambushed by experts from the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate, which led to your demise."

"And Qin Anlan is the Young Lord of the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate. Perhaps the people he brought with him are among the true culprits who harmed you back then."

Ye Qingyun knew Huo Yun Xie Shen's background well.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Huo Yun Xie Shen was a renowned figure throughout the Heavenly Flame Empire.

It was only because he obtained a certain treasure that he was hunted down by numerous experts from the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate.

Ultimately, only a wisp of his remnant soul remained, attaching itself to this ring.

By chance, Ye Qingyun acquired it.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingyun fell silent.

Even a mighty figure like Huo Yun Xie Shen, a mid-stage Saint Lord, was killed by the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate.

The power possessed by the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate was far beyond his imagination.

Could he, a weakling in the Violet Palace Realm, possibly contend with the colossal Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate?

If he did nothing, the sisters Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruxue might fall into Qin Anlan's clutches and suffer torment.

To watch all of this happen...

His heart was filled with unwillingness, and even more so, with rage.
