22. The Demon Emperor’s Intentions! Extreme Ice Divine Talisman!
Ye Ling glanced at it, and his face suddenly lit up with joy.
Inside this bottle was the Heaven Piercing Primordial Pill, one of the earliest treasures Su Ming had obtained.
Nine pills, glowing with celestial light, lay quietly in the jade bottle. Just swallowing one was enough.
The immense spiritual energy contained within could allow a martial artist at the Divine Sea Realm to instantly break through their bottleneck.
Such an elixir was nothing special to Su Ming, but to Ye Ling, it was invaluable.
Ye Ling's background was something Su Ming had learned from Qin Yingluo.
In fact, Su Ming had no real intention of taking Ye Chen’s life.
Ye Chen had been trapped in the Fire Jade Chains all this time, and keeping him there did Su Ming no good.
So, Su Ming planned to let Ye Chen escape as soon as possible.
Now, looking at Ye Chen, he seemed like a walking treasure beast.
He carried his own fate, with a talent for finding treasures.
Letting him go sooner meant he could start searching for treasures sooner, which was beneficial to Su Ming.
After some inquiries, Su Ming noticed the maidservant following Ye Chen, Ye Ling and had her observed closely for some time.
Then, Su Ming made arrangements, letting Ye Ling handle the matter.
A woman like Ye Ling was not uncommon beside a child of fate.
In many stories, they often existed merely as supporting characters.
If Ye Chen had stayed in his remote hometown, Ye Ling would have been a gentle, loyal woman to him.
But he had brought her out.
As Ye Chen’s horizons and ambitions expanded, even unintentionally, he gradually neglected Ye Ling.
From what Su Ming knew, Ye Ling was not doing well in the Cangyun Dao Sect.
Although she was under Ye Chen’s name, so no one dared to bully her, her presence was weak, and her cultivation talent was mediocre.
She could only watch as the young master she had admired shone brighter and brighter, becoming the center of attention, while she remained in place, an ordinary person.
The vast difference created a change in Ye Ling’s personality.
One must never underestimate a woman’s jealousy.
Especially when Ye Chen visited Qin Yingluo every day, ignoring her completely.
Ye Ling’s once gentle nature had already started to crumble.
And this... was exactly what Su Ming needed.
"Also, these are spiritual energy pills for Ye Chen."
Su Ming handed her another jade bottle.
Ye Ling was puzzled, "Demon Emperor’s son, are you really letting Ye Chen go?"
"Of course."
"Keeping him here does me no good. Isn’t it better to let him leave sooner?"
Su Ming spoke indifferently.
"This..."
Ye Ling hesitated.
Deep in her heart, there was still some lingering emotion for Ye Chen.
But it was no longer pure, it was mixed with resentment and hostility.
It was Ye Chen who had taken her out of that remote town, the two of them relying on each other.
Yet in the end, Ye Chen soared high alone, leaving her behind.
At first, Ye Ling had been happy about her young master’s growing fame.
But gradually, more and more women surrounded Ye Chen.
Especially when he frequently courted the beauties of Cangyun, Ye Ling’s mindset completely changed.
She had originally thought that Su Ming came to deal with Ye Chen.
But now, things seemed different...
However, she quickly shook her head.
Whatever the Demon Emperor’s son was planning, it had nothing to do with her.
What mattered was that she had obtained spiritual energy elixirs.
With their power, she could break through to the Divine Sea Realm and beyond.
Following Ye Chen for years, giving her all, yet receiving nothing in return.
And now, with just one decision, she had obtained the Heaven Piercing Primordial Pill.
Only Ye Ling herself could understand the bitterness of it all.
Then, she bowed and left the hall.
Tap, tap...
Qin Yingluo walked out from the side.
"Ye Ling is a pitiful woman too."
Qin Yingluo sighed.
"Pitiful people often have something hateful about them."
"Ye Chen took her out and gave her the chance to see the world, but at the same time, he was the one who ruined her."
"If she had stayed in that small town, living a simple life, she wouldn't be suffering like this now."
Su Ming spoke calmly.
"Prince, I don’t understand. Why don’t you just kill Ye Chen directly?"
Qin Yingluo nodded in agreement, then asked.
This had always puzzled her.
She knew that prince paid special attention to Ye Chen.
The fact that Su Ming had inquired about Ye Chen on his very first day in the Cangyun Dao Sect was proof enough.
What was strange was that Ye Chen had repeatedly disrespected him, yet Su Ming never showed any killing intent.
If it was because Su Ming was benevolent and didn’t care about Ye Chen’s provocations...
Although Qin Yingluo had not known him for long, she understood that if someone truly threatened the prince, he would never show mercy.
"Ye Chen will die sooner or later, but not now."
Su Ming said, "I still have a game to play with him."
He did not elaborate further.
On the vague and mysterious topic of fate, Qin Yingluo naturally wouldn’t understand.
Hearing this, Qin Yingluo wisely stopped asking questions.
No matter what, she had already decided to follow Su Ming. Nothing else mattered.
After casually brushing off Qin Yingluo, Su Ming turned his gaze to the jade ring in his hand.
"Now, let’s see how many treasures our child of fate has accumulated."
Infusing his spiritual energy, Su Ming’s consciousness immediately sank into the jade ring.
Inside, there was a vast mustard-seed space.
Looking around, various items were piled together.
"As expected of a child of fate!"
"The amount of treasures stored here is astonishing!"
Su Ming was surprised.
On the left, mountains of spiritual pills and elixirs were piled up, some jade bottles appearing ancient.
Clearly, they didn’t belong to this era, likely scavenged from some ruins.
On the right, countless magical artifacts shimmered with divine light, some of them rare and ancient treasures.
In front, countless ancient texts and jade slips were stacked, though none of the techniques seemed particularly high-grade.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Ye Chen had surely kept the best ones for himself.
But what truly caught Su Ming’s attention was a jade talisman floating in the center of the ring.
The talisman was as white as snow, square-shaped, only the size of a palm.
It emitted no spiritual energy, yet it hovered and rotated slowly.
Su Ming recognized it at a glance.
The Extreme Ice Divine Talisman!
"So Ye Chen really couldn’t fully refine it and left it in the jade ring."
Su Ming smiled in satisfaction.
This was exactly what he wanted.
The Extreme Ice Divine Talisman was one of the Twelve Divine Talismans, possessing unfathomable power.
Leaving such a treasure in Ye Chen’s hands would be a complete waste.
"Let’s give it a try."
With a thought, Su Ming’s divine sense touched the jade talisman.
In an instant, an unexpected change started occur...
