Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

#1399 - Chapter 1399: The Mystery of Yao Lao

Seeing this, Chen Tian instantly felt a chill down his spine, because he never expected that this seemingly light and weightless silk thread could be so fast!

If this wasn't a silk thread but a hidden weapon, wouldn't Qin Yi already be dead?

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's heart suddenly filled with fear. Subconsciously, he immediately reached out, wanting to untie the silk thread wrapped around Qin Yi's wrist.

"Young man, I advise you not to act rashly, otherwise, this young lady's life may be in danger!" Just then, a slightly aged voice echoed faintly.

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned, because they clearly realized that the voice came from the stone chamber.

Inside the stone chamber, besides those seven annoying blue dwarves, the only one left was the legendary Old Yao.

Doesn't that mean this voice came from Old Yao?

Understanding this, a strong sense of shock涌现in everyone's heart, and they stood there dumbfounded.

Chen Tian's mood was also complicated, both happy and worried, because Old Yao's temperament was strange, and Chen Tian really didn't know what he wanted to do.

However, intuition told Chen Tian that, at least for now, Old Yao didn't seem to have any malicious intent.

So, after taking a deep breath, Chen Tian gradually calmed his panicked mood and then looked at Qin Yi again.

He saw that one end of the silken golden thread extended from the stone chamber, while the other end was tied to Qin Yi's wrist. Moreover, if one observed carefully, they would notice a layer of hazy red light surging on the silken golden thread, moving between the two ends.

Although he hadn't touched it, Chen Tian could still sense that this red light contained extremely powerful energy. Once detonated, Qin Yi, who had already lost her cultivation, would definitely perish.

Understanding this, Chen Tian finally understood what Old Yao meant by his previous words. Indeed, if Chen Tian had accidentally touched this silken golden thread just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Looking at Qin Yi again, he saw that she seemed to be enduring tremendous pressure, with sweat beading on her face and her vermilion lips turning pale, looking like she was struggling to hold on.

Seeing her like this, Chen Tian couldn't help but feel a pang of pity, but he knew that he must not step forward to help at this time, otherwise, he would only harm Qin Yi.

Fortunately, the pain Qin Yi suffered didn't last too long. Soon, the silken golden thread wrapped around her wrist loosened and quickly retracted into the stone chamber.

At the same time, the force that imprisoned Qin Yi disappeared without a trace.

However, after relaxing, Qin Yi seemed to be powerless, and she fell backward, about to fall to the ground. However, Chen Tian had been paying attention to her movements, so just as Qin Yi's body began to slide down, Chen Tian quickly stepped forward and put his arm around her waist, giving her support.

However, when others saw this scene, they all looked puzzled, because they really didn't know what was happening.

In fact, not to mention them, even Chen Tian himself didn't understand what Old Yao was doing. He could only wait quietly.

After a while, Qin Yi seemed to have recovered. After smiling slightly, she struggled out of Chen Tian's arms and stood up with difficulty.

Just then, the voice that had been silent for a long time echoed again: "Young man, who are you? And who recommended you to come to this old man's place?"

Obviously, this question was directed at Chen Tian.

Hearing this, Chen Tian didn't delay and quickly stepped forward, respectfully replying: "I am Chen Tian, and I am here to visit Senior Old Yao in the name of the Dragon Court Pavilion."

"Dragon Court Pavilion?"

Hearing Chen Tian say this, Old Yao paused obviously, as if recalling some past events, and said with emotion: "Ten thousand years ago, this old man received some favors from the former Pavilion Master of the Dragon Court Pavilion and promised him that in the future, anyone who came in the name of the Dragon Court Pavilion would be treated by this old man to the best of my ability. Since that's the case, then you two, come in."

As he spoke, the half-closed stone chamber door suddenly opened, and then a gust of wind blew out, wrapping around Chen Tian and Qin Yi, and they were quickly sucked into it.

All of this happened too quickly. Before everyone could recover, Chen Tian and Qin Yi had disappeared. At the same time, the stone chamber door was completely closed, leaving everyone present looking at each other, dumbfounded.

"Everyone, my master said that he will not be seeing guests for the next year, so please leave."

Just as everyone's minds were a little confused, the shopkeeper of the tavern who had greeted them before came out again and said respectfully to them.

"What? A year!"

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, everyone seemed to wake up and came back to their senses. The red-shirted old man stood up as if he was very anxious, widening his eyes and saying: "Didn't you just say that he would only be seeing guests in half a year? How has it become a year now?"

Indeed, when the blue dwarf came out for the second time, he had told them that Old Yao would be in seclusion for half a year and would not be seeing guests. However, at this time, the shopkeeper doubled the time limit, which they could not accept.

However, facing the red-shirted old man's questioning, the shopkeeper seemed quite helpless and said with a wry smile: "Everyone, please don't be surprised. This matter was just conveyed to me by the master, so I really don't know what happened. I hope everyone can understand!"

The shopkeeper was not lying. He was just outside in the tavern doing the accounts when he suddenly received such instructions from Old Yao, and that was why he came to tell the truth.

Hearing this, the red-shirted old man's eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked at the tightly closed stone chamber, muttering to himself suspiciously: "What is the origin of these two people?"
