Chapter 6 A Broken Sword

After returning to the room, Ye Chen finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and wanted to reach out to open the black iron box.

"You have to think carefully. Once you open this box, you will have to shoulder another responsibility, a responsibility that... shouldn't belong to you. There is no turning back."

The woman's voice sounded at this time.

"This is what my father left me. I believe he won't hurt me!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, and then resolutely opened the black box.

"Buzz!"

A sharp sword light burst out from the box, making people unable to open their eyes.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and opened them after a while.

In the black box, there was a sword.

To be precise, this is a... broken sword!

This broken sword is only half a meter long, and the hilt alone accounts for half of it. It is pure black and has strange patterns engraved on it.

If you look closely, you can see that this was once a very heavy giant sword. The thick blade broke out of thin air, and the crack was very smooth.

It was as if it was cut off in one stroke!

"My father left me a broken sword?"

Ye Chen pondered for a moment, "Senior, is there anything different about this broken sword? What is the so-called responsibility?"

"Nothing, I saw it wrong."

The woman said lightly, "This is a spiritual artifact. It is even less valuable after being broken, but looking at this heavy blade, it is very suitable for you. Take it and use it."

Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Ye Chen did not continue to ask.

He picked up the broken sword and tried to swing it.

The sound of breaking through the air was rustling.

This broken sword is as heavy as a mountain, but it is surprisingly handy.

"It just so happens that I don't have a weapon, so I'll use it."

Ye Chen grinned, satisfied.

This is what his father left for him. Although it is not a treasure, it is of extraordinary significance.

"Chen'er, I'm here to give you medicine."

At this time, a voice sounded outside.

It was Ye Chen's third uncle, Ye Haijiang.

The door opened, and a middle-aged man with a slightly fat body and short stature walked in.

He was holding a tray with more than a dozen medicinal herbs on it, which were obviously carefully selected and matched.

"Uncle San, why are there so many medicinal herbs?"

Seeing this, Ye Chen was a little stunned.

Ye Haijiang is an alchemist... an apprentice, and can only mix some relatively common medicinal herbs.

Whether it is elixir, formation, technique or magic weapon, they are divided into spiritual grade, mysterious grade, holy grade, royal grade and imperial grade.

Only those who can refine spiritual grade elixir can be considered a qualified alchemist.

If Ye Haijiang can become an alchemist, he will obtain an extremely noble status.

Together with the entire Yuncheng Ye family, they will rise with the tide.

It's a pity that he doesn't have this talent.

Ye Haijiang grinned, "There are three days left before the clan competition. I heard that the reward this time is very high. You, Ye Hen, and Ye Xiao are the hope of our Ye family, but among the three, only you have been promoted to the human spirit realm. Although these herbs may not improve you much, it is good to have a better chance of winning."

"Put these three herbs in the bathtub and take a bath after practicing to absorb them; this one can be eaten directly, this one can be applied to wounds, and this one..."

Ye Haijiang spoke very carefully, fearing that Ye Chen remembered it wrong.

There was a flash of kindness in his eyes.

At this moment, the affection from the heart made Ye Chen's heart warm.

Over the years, whether it was his uncle Ye Chongshan or his third uncle Ye Haijiang, they were very good to him.

From childhood to adulthood, it has always been like this.

This also strengthened Ye Chen's belief.

He must work harder to repay the family.

At this time, Ye Haijiang took a deep breath, his voice trembling a little, "Chen'er, Third Uncle got the news that the Fang family went to unite the other two major families and prepared to attack you in the clan competition. You... remember to be careful!"

"Don't worry, Third Uncle."

Ye Chen smiled.

I used to be the number one genius in Qing Kingdom, and the existence of the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth Creation gave me unlimited possibilities.

In this case, how could I take the geniuses of other families seriously?

"Okay, then you should practice well in the last three days, and Third Uncle will not disturb you."

After saying this, Ye Haijiang turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, Ye Chen clearly saw a shocking blood mark on the back of Ye Haijiang's neck.

"Third Uncle, wait."

Ye Chen took a few steps forward and pulled Ye Haijiang's collar open.

"Who did it?!"

A flash of anger flashed in his pupils, and he couldn't help roaring.

The strong anger surged wildly.

Behind Ye Haijiang, there was a knife wound extending from the neck, half a meter long, across the entire back.

Although it had been treated, the shocking wound was still bleeding, and even soaked through the gauze.

"It's nothing. Yesterday, the Fang family sent people to rob the medicinal materials in my medicine shop, and I fought with them on the spot. I suffered a little loss, but my life is not in danger, it's not a big deal."

Ye Haijiang waved his hands repeatedly, pretending to be indifferent.

The more this happened, the angrier Ye Chen became!

Fang family, you not only robbed my Ye family of medicinal materials, but also sent Fang Luo to cancel the engagement!

You really deserve to die!

"Uncle San, tell me, who is it?"

Ye Chen suppressed his anger and spoke calmly.

"It's... it's Fang family's son, Fang Yan!"

Ye Haijiang sighed, "Fang Yan broke through to the supernatural realm a few days ago. In addition to him, Chen Hui of the Chen family and He Shenghuan of the He family all broke through one after another in one day. It's too coincidental. I suspect there is a conspiracy behind this..."

Fang Yan is Fang Luo's younger brother, Fang family's son, and the first genius.

"No need to think, it must be Su Aoxue who is causing trouble."

Ye Chen's eyes were fierce, "Su Aoxue thinks that our Ye family is not dying fast enough, so she simply helps the princes of the other three major families to break through, so that they can work together to deal with our Ye family!"

"Okay, very good, on the day of the clan competition, I will personally chop off Fang Yan's head!"

Ye Chen's murderous intent was boiling in his heart, like a pool of boiling iron.

After sending Ye Haijiang away, Ye Chen took a bath with medicinal herbs.

These medicinal herbs were just enough for three days.

After taking a medicinal bath, Ye Chen changed his clothes.

Just when he was about to rest, he heard a maid knocking on the door outside.

"Prince, the eldest young master is back."

"Brother is back?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen stood up suddenly.

Brother Ye Meng's leg was broken because of himself, and was later taken out by the clan members to seek medical treatment.

He finally returned today, and I don't know if there is a cure for that leg.

The courtyard of the Ye family.

Ye Meng lay in the carriage, forcing a smile, "Dad, it doesn't matter. Although the Ye family lost me, fortunately Brother Chen has recovered his cultivation. He is gifted. Even if he is alone, he can lead our Ye family to revive!"

Obviously, no cure has been found.

Ye Chongshan, who was standing aside, moved his lips and seemed to have aged by dozens of years.

"Brother!"

At this time, Ye Chen came quickly.

He glanced at Ye Meng's legs. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by this scene.

Ye Meng's legs, below the knees, were soft and completely shattered!

"Brother Chen, my brother has become a disabled person. I'm afraid he will never be able to contribute to the family again..."

Ye Meng's expression was gloomy, and it could be seen that he was trying his best to hold back his disappointment.

"Brother, don't worry, I will try my best to cure you!"

A look of determination flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

"Prince, we have tried all the ways..."

The Ye family disciple on the carriage also sighed in a low voice, "But the royal family is too domineering. They directly issued a statement that any pharmacy that dares to sell pills to the Ye family will be charged with treason!"

Can this leg be cured? Of course it can!

With the Bone Shaping Pill, it can be cured!

The Bone Shaping Pill is a spiritual pill, which is very valuable. Only a few pharmacies in the entire Qing Kingdom have it.

Who is willing to offend the royal family for the Ye family?

"Really, is there no way?"

Ye Chen clenched his fists, and his hatred for Su Aoxue grew wildly.

The disciple was silent for a while, and said, "There is another way. I took Brother Meng to the Tingfeng Tower branch. They also have Bone Shaping Pills, but they don't sell them. You have to exchange them for something!"

Ye Chen asked, "What is it?"

Tingfeng Tower is a huge chamber of commerce with branches in hundreds of countries.

Richest in the world, with a very high status.

This is why Tingfeng Tower still sells things that the royal family does not allow to be sold.

"A hundred-year-old precious medicine."

The disciple was dejected.

Medicinal materials can be called precious medicines when they are a hundred years old.

The value of a hundred-year-old precious medicine is no less than that of a spiritual medicine!

"I remember that there is a hundred-year-old precious medicine deep in the Panlong Mountains."

Ye Chen seemed to remember something, and his eyes lit up.

"Chen'er, no!"

Ye Chongshan shook his head, "There is a powerful Earth Spirit Realm monster guarding the precious medicine. I heard that the monster has been waiting for the precious medicine to mature. Once swallowed, it may be directly promoted to the Heaven Spirit Realm! The other three major families paid a lot of price and failed to get the precious medicine. You have just entered the Human Spirit Realm, so you must not mess around!"

Ye Meng also hurriedly said, "Brother Chen, you are the future of the family, you must not take risks for me."

"Brother, your leg was broken because of me. If I can't even take this responsibility, how can I stand in the world with dignity?"

A firm look flashed in Ye Chen's pupils, "Uncle, don't worry, I will go to Panlong Mountain Range to try my luck, and I will never mess around. If I can't win, I will retreat!"

These words are very powerful!

After speaking, Ye Chen strode out.

In the cauldron, the woman said to herself, "This kid, with a heart full of blood, would rather break than bend. Just this point, he is really born to be a sword cultivator!"
