Chapter 74 74: Shall We Start Then?
"Your Sister?" Xu Shan frowned, slightly taken aback. Why was this guy looking for his sister here? They hadn't even started executing their plan after all.
"Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" he continued. "Why would we have your sister? We haven't even seen her ever since we came here. Please leave. We don't have time for your nonsense."
It would've at least made sense if they were here for the guy they kidnapped. However, they were looking for someone that wasn't here in the first place. It didn't make sense.
However, for the Elders of the Celestial Palace to be here, Xu Shan had a feeling that something had gone awfully wrong. Either that, or they were lying.
No matter which of the two it was, it gave him a feeling of Qin Ye being involved somehow.
Yu Ming's expression turned dark. He loved his little sister the most in this world. That's why, he had been trying so hard to convince his father to let him go meet her at least once.
After such a long time, he was finally granted permission from his father to meet Yu Fei. However, as soon as he reached there, he was taken aback! His sister was nowhere to be found on the entire mountain!
Moreover, there weren't any signs of resistance or battle either. It was as if his sister had just.... disappeared.
In the entire Celestial Place, there were only two outsiders! Their sudden arrival to this place soon after his sister was brought back was already suspicious. The long stretching negotiations were even more suspicious, and now his sister had gone missing!
Everything hinted toward it being the work of Xu Shan! Despite all this, it was still only a suspicion. However, there was one more piece of evidence that convinced him even more!
There was only one person who was allowed access to the Solace Mountain. It was the disciple of a great elder who was responsible for bringing food on the Solace Mountain for his sister. However, that disciple was also missing!
It was clear that his sister's disappearance had something to do with that Disciple. What was even worse was that, according to other disciples, that particular disciple was often seen coming toward this guest house before her disappearance!
There was no way that this could be a coincidence! What happened to his sister previously was already a mystery, but Xu Shan's involvement made things even worse.
Hearing Xu Shan's firm rejection, Yu Ming's expressions turned dark. At the moment, he didn't care about anything else!
"Search the entire house! Destroy this place if you have to, but find my sister!" He roared in rage, as if commanding under Elders.
Usually, it was disrespectful to talk to Elders at this time, but Yu Ming didn't care. The Elders also didn't make it an issue and got to work, entering the guest house.
Xu Shan only frowned, but didn't try to stop them. He wanted to see just who exactly was behind this. If it was the Qin Dynasty, then Yi Fei was probably already taken out of the Celestial Palace. And if it was the Celestial Palace, then they were mysteriously going to find Yu Fei in the guest house and blame them.
Xu Shan didn't worry about being blamed. Since he had planned to destroy the protective formation before even coming here, he had already made sufficient preparation. However, before doing anything, he wanted to see just what these people were aiming for.
Even though his face didn't reveal anything, his heart wasn't the same. Because of his Demonic Heart's influence, he was already filled with an urge to destroy the Entire Celestial Palace, killing every single person who was present on this Island.
While the search was going on in the house, Xu Shan stepped out of the house, standing in the open with his hands behind his back, as if he was just a spectator.
Ye Han stood next to him, prepared for everything that was to come. Even now, the Palace Master hadn't shown himself. However, the commotion was so big, that it had alerted many disciples of the Celestial Palace.
In the distance, many disciples had already gathered, watching the commotion. They were curious about what had happened. However, they also felt happy that the Celestial Palace was showing Xu Shan his place! This made all of them feel quite pleased, since they already hated the Third Prince.
"Should I send a message to the Emperor?" Ye Han brought his lips closer to Xu Shan, asking.
He was curious if he should ask for the Eternal Emperor to come here personally.
Xu Shan shook his head. "No need to get him involved. I've everything that I need. It just depends on what they do now. Will they solve this peacefully? Or will they force my hand and regret for as long as they live..."
His expressions didn't reveal a single trade of fear, as if he didn't even know the meaning of fear. Even when there were so many Elders here, Xu Shan stood firmly as if he wasn't a Prince but the Emperor himself!
After a long and thorough search, the Elders came out, with disappointment on their faces.
They shook their heads, as if informing Yu Ming that they didn't find anything.
In the end, Yu Ming's expressions twisted even more, making him glare at Xu Shan.
"Hand over your spatial rings. Let us check what's inside!" he exclaimed.
"Young man, don't go too far," Ye Han chimed in. A person's spatial ring was said to be his life, containing many precious treasures or secrets. Moreover, since Xu Shan was a Prince of the Eternal Dynasty, it was even worse to ask him for his ring!
"The first time I'm seeing a person so eager for his sister's death," Xu Shan commented, shaking his head lightly. "Since you are asking to check our rings, doesn't that mean you think that your sister is already dead and her body is in our rings?"
"You! Give your rings!" Yu Ming clenched his fist, asking once again. However, Xu Shan showed no reaction.
In the end, Yu Ming decided to use force as he rushed ahead.
Ye Han also reacted right away, but before he could help Xu Shan, he was pushed away by the Great Elder who kept him busy. If these guys weren't handing over their rings nicely, they could only force them. This matter concerned the Saintess after all!
While Ye Han was kept busy by the Great Elder, Yu Ming was free to take the ring from Xu Shan. However, before that, he felt like knocking a few teeth of the arrogant man for scheming against his sister!
He tightened his fist, only holding back enough strength so he didn't kill Xu Shan.
Now that there wasn't anyone to stop him on Xu Shan's side, he was free to beat the heck out of him and get a confession.
Within the blink of an eye, he appeared before Xu Shan, and punched, targeting Xu Shan's handsome face.
Xu Shan didn't even flinch though, even as the fist came for him. Since his Celestial Spirit was in his eye, every movement was crystal clear to him, no matter how fast.
Just as his fist was about to make contact with Xu Shan, his fist stopped. Yu Ming's face was filled with shock and confusion!
Xu Shan had stopped his fist, grabbing it directly. Moreover, that strength... It wasn't any less than him!
Just as he was in shock, Xu Shah's fist came in response, directly connecting to Yu Ming's face, sending him flying back.
Xu Shan patted his clothes lightly, as if more worried about his clothes getting dirty instead. Since things had come to this point, they couldn't blame him anymore. They could only blame themselves for going this far!
"Shall we start then?" he asked, revealing a calm smile.
