"Creak!"    

The simple and crude door opened, and Han Chen walked out from inside with an imposing manner. Outside the room, Xie Qufeng, Li Mao and the rest were waiting.    

Everyone who saw Han Chen, could not help but reveal shocked expressions, while the aura released from the other party's body was as sharp as a sword.    

"What's wrong? They all look at me like that? " Han Chen touched his face and said.    

stepped forward and laughed, "Of course I want to see how handsome you are. Otherwise, will I still have to see how ugly you are?"    

"Really!?" To be able to enter Phoenix Fairy Beauty's eyes, it looks like I am indeed rather handsome. " Han Chen started to joke along.    

"Hmph, such a blabbermouth!" "Compared to your pretty little girlfriends, I'm just too lacking."    

"Hehe!" "Alright, let's stop joking." Han Chen waved his hand, and asked seriously: "How long have you been waiting for me?"    

"No more, no less. Today is the tenth day."    

"Ten days? "Has it been so long?" Han Chen was a little surprised, he swept his eyes across the crowd and asked, "Where's Ge Liuyi and Yang Dingjie?"    

"They went into the city to look for information on the others. They should be back by now." Xie Qufeng explained.    

His voice had just sounded when scattered footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard.    

"Hur hur, I said that I would be back soon." Feng Yunu said.    

Very quickly, the person who had arrived was at the entrance of the courtyard. It was precisely Ge Liuyi and Yang Dingjie.    

"Gou Liuyi?"    

"Yang Dingjie, what's wrong with you all?"    

Everyone's expression changed as they hurriedly went forward to support the two of them.    

Han Chen also quickly walked over, only to see that Ge Liu's situation was still alright. However, Yang Dingjie's injuries were more serious.    

"Put him down!" Li Mao said.    

A few of them carefully helped Yang Dingjie down to the ground and sat him down. Then, Li Mao raised his hand and pushed out a dense amount of hidden force from his back.    

Everyone felt a scorching wave of Qi sweeping towards their surroundings, Yang Dingjie's face that was as white as paper, gradually started to turn red.    

Han Chen looked at Li Mao with a slightly astonished expression.    

Even his own 'Greater Five Elements Techniques' would probably not be able to heal the injuries in Yang Dingjie's body this quickly.    

Not long after, Li Mao withdrew his palm and heaved a sigh of relief.    

"It's done. Fortunately, I came back in time. Otherwise, it would have taken me one or two months to recover."    

"Thank you, Brother Li." Yang Dingjie said weakly.    

"We're all friends, saying these words is too formal."    

"Who beat you up like this?" Xie Qufeng asked first.    

Everyone's eyes turned towards Ge Liuyi who was at the side. Comparatively speaking, she was more capable than Yang Dingjie in explaining the reason for the matter.    

"Someone from the Jin Yan Dynasty?" Gou Liuyi's red lips slightly opened.    

Jin Yan Dynasty again!    

Han Chen's expression could not help but darken as killing intent flashed in his eyes. It seemed that he had let them off the hook the last time. However, he had not attracted any attention from them. In fact, he had become even more serious the last time.    

"Where are they?"    

"He has, he has already left." Yang Dingjie's weak voice came over. With Lin Pu's and Xie Wuchang's help, he stood up and extended his left hand in front of Han Chen. "They left this for you."    

Spreading open their palms, two beautiful hairpins appeared before everyone's eyes.    

Han Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, he grabbed the hair clip in his hand, "This is Ming Ruo's!"    

What?    

Everyone was shocked and frowned.    

"Jin, the people from the Jin Yan Dynasty said that they wanted you to bring the things they wanted to the 'Nine Nether River' in three days. Otherwise, they would kill Ming Ruo and Ye Xiaoke."    

Ye Xiaoke was also in their hands?    

Their expressions changed again and again, especially Han Chen's. It was as if his entire face was covered in a layer of ice.    

"The Nine Abyssal River?"    

Li Mao muttered these words, and suddenly stared at Han Chen in shock: "Could it be that the thing Jin Yan Dynasty asked for is the Buddhist Sect's' Purifying Buddha Lotus'?"    

Purify the Buddha Lotus?    

With this said, everyone was once again shocked. At the same time, they were also confused and puzzled.    

Han Chen frowned, "How did you know?"    

Li Mao nodded, shook his head, and said with a face full of amazement, "It really is the 'Purifying Buddha Lotus', no wonder they would request for you to go to the netherworld!"    

"Brother Li, don't keep us in suspense. Hurry up and speak clearly." Lin Pu said anxiously.    

"I only heard about this from rumors. It is said that thousands of years ago, the 'Sage Sage Sage Sage Sage' of the Buddhist Sect and the 'Seven Nights Saint Ruler' of the Demons had a 'identification of Tao Techniques'. The two Saints debated whether the buddhist magic was stronger or the demonic way was more so.    

The Buddhist Sangha had always been opposed to the Devil Dao. The former was to attract good, while the latter was to teach evil.    

Whether it was the two great sects' way of doing things or their sect's style, they all went against each other.    

Sage Sage Sage Sage Sage was the holy monk of the past, while the Seven Nights Saint Ruler was the overlord of the demons. The two Saints, one positive and one evil, had agreed on the theory of 'Buddhism' and 'Demonic Way'.    

Each of them had their own opinion on what people were doing. They would state whether it was a buddhist art that was inclined to lead people to good, or a demonic path that would teach people how to do evil.    

And the location chosen for this debate on the Dao arts was at the bottom of the Abyssal River.    

Li Mao did not know much, and what came out was intermittent, but most of the people could understand.    

"Then what does this have to do with cleansing the buddhist lotus?" Han Chen replied.    

"After the debate over the Tao techniques in the past between Sage Sage Sage Sage and the Seven Nights Saint Ruler ended, some passed down treasures were left behind and given to the fated ones. Rumor has it that there were even twenty 'Great Nirvana Pills'!"    

What?    

Everyone's eyes were wide open as shock filled their faces.    

"Great Nirvana Pill? is one of the most famous pills in the world. " Xie Qufeng's tone was clearly somewhat trembling.    

"That's right!" Even Saints would benefit from this Great Nirvana Pill, let alone the martial cultivation of long habitat. " Li Mao's eyes were burning with passion.    

"But, why did the Saint Sage Melancholic Monk and the Seven Nights Saint Ruler leave the 'Grand Nirvana Pill' there?" Feng Yunu voiced out her doubts.    

"It is said that the debate between the two great Saints over the Dao arts did not determine the victor, and neither was able to convince the other. "Thus, they left behind the Great Nirvana Pills at the bottom of the netherworld river in order for some people to go after them in the future and make the appropriate judgement based on the Daoist magic that was used that year."    

Li Mao's voice paused for a moment, and then continued, "As for how the descendents are supposed to make their judgement, or what method they are going to use, I do not know."    

Han Chen shook his head, "But you still haven't made it clear, what does this have to do with cleansing the Buddha Lotus?"    

"Hm!" Brother Han, it's like this. " Li Mao waved his hand and spoke, "Those twenty Great Nirvana Pills are hidden at the bottom of the Nine Nether River, and the River Styx contains an extremely terrifying death aura and yin aura. This aura of death and yin aura, ordinary people would die if they touched it. Even experts of the Entering the Saint realm are unable to forcibly pass through the bottom of the Nine Hell River. "    

"What?" Not even saints? "    

"That's right, unless your cultivation is at the level of the 'Saint Sage of Melancholic Sage' and the 'Seven Nights Saint Ruler', no one can enter the water of the Styx. Besides that, there is only one other method?"    

"Purify the Buddha Lotus!" Han Chen coldly spat out these four words.    

"Yes, it is the purification of the lotus. This was a precious treasure of the buddhist faith, planted personally by the Sage Saint Sage Song Xian. It was able to purify all the powers in the world, including the water of the netherworld. "Only by purifying the Buddha Lotus' protective body can we dive into the depths of the Styx."    

After talking so much, everyone finally understood the reason behind Jin Yan Dynasty's unrelenting determination.    

It seemed like they were doing it for the treasures at the bottom of the netherworld.    

"I have another question." Xie Qufeng opened his mouth and said, "Since the Purifying Buddha Lotus is related to the treasure at the bottom of the River Styx, then why is it only the Jin Yan Dynasty that is looking for us? For such an important item, there should be tens of thousands of people fighting over it, right? "    

With that said, Han Chen also understood.    

Indeed, when they were at the Buddhist ruins, there were only a few thousand people gathered there, and most of them were headed for the sariras.    

Before he had accidentally obtained the purification of the lotus, he had never heard of any news regarding it.    

"This question is easy to explain." Li Mao nodded and looked at Han Chen. "That Purifying Buddha Lotus was obtained by Brother Han from the ruins of the Buddhist Sect in the Windstorm City and the Great Xiong City, right?"    

"That's right."    

"That's right, because Star Continent does not only have one Buddhist ruin."    

"Oh?"    

"Coincidentally, the Buddhist Sect's remains that you are heading to is the smallest and least famous of all. There were many people who knew about the purification of the buddhist lotus, but no one would have thought that the buddhist treasure would be hidden in the smallest, least famous ruins. Most people would go to the larger Buddhist ruins to search for them. This meant that even until now, no one had found out that it was you who took her away. "    

So that's how it was!    

Soon after, Han Chen came to a realization. No wonder Tan Zhong had previously said that the news of him obtaining the Buddha Lotus would spread very quickly. At that time, the number of people who would come to find trouble with him would be innumerable.    

As long as others were to investigate who had completed the mission of Da Xiong City's sariras, they would be able to quickly investigate his background.    

As matters stood, the best option in front of Han Chen was to give the Purifying Buddha Lotus to Jin Yan Dynasty and throw this hot potato off his hands.    

But, with Han Chen's character, how could he admit defeat so easily?    

Moreover, the Jin Yan Dynasty actually used Ming Ruo and Ye Xiaoke to threaten him. This kind of method to harm her family was absolutely not something that Han Chen could tolerate.    

"Han Chen, what do you plan to do next?" Xie Qufeng asked.    

Han Chen took a light breath, a cold glint flashed past his pitch-black eyes. He looked at Li Mao who was beside him and asked, "Brother Li, do you know where the Nine Nether River is?"
