The Greed of Human Nature!

Ye Jing's mouth gaped open slightly; so this was how he had gotten in.

But I was also secretly relieved.

The Sage Scholar, who was severely injured while trying to save the world, was still a good person.

He was not a murderous monster.

He wouldn't kill himself in this Ancient Tomb.

"Young friend, I'm so sorry to have dragged you into this. I apologize!" The old man clasped his hands and was about to bow.

Ye Jing hurriedly reached out to stop him; he couldn't possibly accept such a grand gesture from a Saint!

But the hand passed right through the old man's body!

The old man bowed deeply to Ye Jing!

"Young friend, I am but a Divine Soul, and I have nothing of value to offer you in compensation. I see that you are a lover of books, so consider the books outside as my apology. I wonder if this satisfies you?"

The old man straightened up, his voice still full of apology.

He knew that if he made the wrong bet, he would kill another innocent person!

Therefore, I feel extremely guilty towards Ye Jing!

"Senior, you flatter me. Those books are more than enough. I will cherish them!"

Ye Jing clasped his hands in a fist salute, feeling a little embarrassed inside.

It turns out that while he was stealing the book, the owner had actually been watching the whole time.

"But senior, why is that evil thought in the shape of Human Skin? And why can it possess someone else's body?"

"That's because when I expelled the evil thoughts, I had to carry my own aura with me, so I cut off a piece of my skin to use as a vessel!" The old man sighed, his figure suddenly thinning a little. "But I never expected that it would slowly grow into a complete piece of skin."

"As an evil thought, it needs a complete physical body to be fully born, which is why it peeled off a body it deemed suitable and put it on itself."

"After a long period of time, as the Human Skin and flesh slowly fuse together, he will truly be born into this world, becoming a truly bloodthirsty demon!"

Ye Jing suddenly realized, "So that's how it is!"

"Alright, young friend, my remaining Divine Soul power is almost exhausted. I'll send you out one last time!"

After the old man finished speaking, his Divine Soul seemed to fade even further!

"Good!"

Ye Jing nodded; he also wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

The old man flashed a blue light, and Ye Jing's vision blurred.

He was then teleported outside the Ancient Tomb.

Outside the Ancient Tomb, Liu Huaqing and the other two all looked relieved as they talked to each other.

Behind them were groups of people, it seemed that reinforcements had arrived!

People from other factions were also surrounding the three, presumably trying to ascertain the situation.

His face showed anger, sadness, and a somewhat complicated expression.

After all, nine people went in, and in the end, only three were left!

Ye Jing was about to leave.

When Liu Huaqing and the others saw Ye Jing, they quickly walked towards him!

"Senior, thank you for saving my life!"

The three clasped their hands in thanks and expressed their gratitude in unison.

"No need to thank me, it's nothing, I'll be going now!" Ye Jing shook his head and was about to leave.

But Liu Huaqing stopped her again!

"Senior, we will never forget your life-saving grace. We just discussed it and felt that we must repay you properly." Liu Huaqing smiled charmingly, "We have arranged some rare delicacies for you at the best restaurant in the city. We hope you will do us the honor of joining us!"

"I hope you will do me the honor of joining me, senior!"

"I hope you will do me the honor of joining me, senior!"

The Martial General and another person also clasped their hands in greeting.

Meanwhile, the others also swarmed around, seemingly forming a protective circle around Ye Jing!

Ye Jing frowned slightly and refused once again!

I'm not going.

"Senior, please do me the honor!" Liu Huaqing reached out her fair hand to grab Ye Jing's arm.

But Ye Jing dodged it in an instant.

"I'll say it again, I'm not going!" Ye Jing said in a deep voice.

Liu Huaqing's smiling face immediately fell.

"Senior, we invited you out of kindness, so please don't let our good intentions go to waste!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the people from the various powerful factions surrounded her even more tightly.

"What? You're going to kidnap me if I don't go?" A cold glint flashed in Ye Jing's eyes.

"Damn it, don't push your luck! Tell me, what did you get in there in the end? What did you discover?"

Finally!

Someone couldn't hold back any longer and started cursing.

"Senior, you are indeed very strong, but with so many of us here, it won't be so easy for you to leave!" Liu Huaqing smiled sweetly, her greedy eyes revealing nothing of the matter!

"Senior, so many of us died inside, but we didn't get any benefits. We won't be able to explain ourselves when we go back. Since you saved us anyway, why don't you share some of the final fortuitous opportunity with us so we can go back and explain ourselves?"

"If you let us finish our task, we'll let you go, senior. How about it, senior?"

Liu Huaqian threatened with a smile.

"Hehe!"

Ye Jing sneered. These people are really greedy!

"Let me put aside the fact that I didn't receive any fortuitous opportunity at all. Even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you ungrateful people!"

After saying that, his aura surged!

When did just any Tom, Dick, or Harry dare to threaten him?

The Sword Opens Heavenly Gate!

Countless Sword Qi instantly erupted from his palm.

He beheaded Liu Huaqing, the Martial General, and another person in one swift motion!

The entire process didn't take a single second!

Everyone's mouths dropped open in shock!

This man's strength is even more terrifying than Liu Huaqing and the others described!

With a single move, he wiped out three of their peak combatants!

They actually had the delusion that having more people would allow them to overpower the other side!

"Senior, spare us! Senior, spare us! We were wrong!"

Everyone immediately knelt on the ground and began to apologize.

"You don't know you're wrong, you just know you're going to die!"

Ye Jing looked at these people with an indifferent expression.

Countless Sword Qi flew out from his hand, crippling the cultivation of these people!

Then it transformed into Flowing Light and disappeared into the horizon!

A while later.

Ye Jing landed in a dense forest.

At this point, he had already changed his demeanor once again.

He transformed into a handsome young man, his Jade Face Radiant!

Having found a scenic spot, Ye Jing took out his Storage Bag.

Upon opening it, I found it filled with countless Storage Bag!

Upon seeing this, Ye Jing couldn't help but smile!

As expected of the Sage Scholar, he certainly had a vast collection of books.

I was just about to take out a Storage Bag.

But suddenly, he thought of something very serious.

His pupils contracted sharply, and his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat!

If you slay the evil thoughts of the Sage Scholar, doesn't that mean the Demon Seed will be reborn in the Sage Scholar's heart?

It wasn't his own experience, and nothing like it had ever happened to him. Plus, he was only thinking about leaving the Ancient Tomb as soon as possible.

It's normal that I didn't think of that at the time.

But such an important matter couldn't possibly have gone unthought of by that Divine Soul of the Sage Scholar!

But he didn't mention it at all; instead, after he finished speaking, he told me to leave!

This can only prove one thing!

That Divine Soul did it on purpose!

Ye Jing's hair stood on end, and he swallowed hard.

I feel terrible!
