CHAPTER 934: CHAPTER 907: REVENGE

"Yes!" Miyazaki Yama instantly nodded, then left to carry out the orders. The intelligence system in Miyazaki Yama’s hand was running frantically, and soon he found out the situation of the Yao Yue unit. Yoda was stunned when he heard Miyazaki Yama’s report: "Are the people from the Golden Triangle here too?"

"According to the intelligence, this Yao Yue has a very ambiguous relationship with Ye Chen!" Miyazaki Yama replied.

"Oh, damn, how capable is this Ye Chen!" Yoda was dumbfounded immediately. However, what left Yoda dumbfounded was not just these things. Soldiers from the two gateway islands of the Luo Sijue family also began to slowly move, steadily approaching the waters of Japan. They confronted the Self-Defense Force on the sea of Japan. Yoda was worried about the situation at home while also concerned about the battle at sea.

Haozi was waiting for news from Ye Chen in Leisure City; he needed Ye Chen’s approval to open fire. Otherwise, if the Clan Leader blamed him later, he couldn’t afford it. He waited an entire night but did not see any message from Ye Chen. Around five o’clock the following morning, Ye Chen arrived at Leisure City. The first to discover him was a warrior at the port of Leisure City. The warrior saw a yacht speeding towards them from afar and quickly raised the alarm. During the identity verification, he discovered that the person coming ashore was none other than the Clan Leader himself, and he was shocked senseless.

Ye Chen held Li Ruo, wearing a white dress, and walked ashore, heading towards Rothschild’s castle.

"Big brother, what’s wrong with sister-in-law?" Haozi, wearing a golden robe—the official clothes of the Rothschild family’s steward—asked. Holding the steward’s scepter in his hand, in some respects, the steward was like a second Clan Leader.

"She’s gone!" Ye Chen expressed a trace of sorrow, this man, not yet thirty, had turned gray overnight. He carried Li Ruo step by step into the castle. Haozi was dumbfounded at once. Although he had already learned that something had happened to sister-in-law, he couldn’t accept seeing Li Ruo’s lifeless appearance with his own eyes.

"Big brother, what... what should we do now?" Haozi hurriedly asked.

"Revenge!" Ye Chen gritted his teeth.

"Okay, I’ll have the warriors launch a suicide attack on Japan!" Haozi clenched his teeth and left but was stopped by Ye Chen: "Stop, come back here!"

"Big brother, we can’t just let what happened to sister-in-law end like this!" Haozi took a deep breath, tears in his eyes.

"Li Ruo’s situation pains me more than it does you!" Ye Chen snorted softly.

"Then... then what should we do?" Haozi was stunned.

"Where is the Rothschild family’s Crystal Coffin?" Ye Chen asked.

"This..." Haozi was stunned, then said, "Brother Chen, the Crystal Coffin holds the remains of the First Generation Patriarch. If moved, I’m afraid..."

"If there’s a problem, let me bear it!" Ye Chen snorted coldly.

A person with no emotional ties occupies a Crystal Coffin that can preserve a body from decay; it’s better to put my beloved Li Ruo there. Haozi hesitated for a long time, but in the end, emotions triumphed over reasoning. He gritted his teeth and immediately led Ye Chen to the back mountain cave of the Rothschild family, the resting place of previous Clan Leaders. The spiritual tablets were worshipped inside, and only the First Generation Patriarch had the privilege of an undying Crystal Coffin.

At the entrance of the cave, guards were stationed. Seeing the Clan Leader and the steward approaching, they naturally didn’t dare to obstruct and promptly allowed them passage. Ye Chen and Haozi passed through the dark corridor and entered the cave, which was eerie, resembling a large yurt. The walls rose all around, with dozens of openings adorned with the spiritual tablets of past Clan Leaders. The token of the previous Clan Leader was also placed here.

At the center of this cave was a glass Crystal Coffin. The coffin was connected to a power source, constantly supplying cold air to ensure the body wouldn’t decompose. However, inside lay an old man in a yellow robe. His cheekbones were prominent, and his eyes were sunken. Despite lying there for centuries, there had been no visible changes. Ye Chen stood before him and helplessly said: "First Generation Patriarch, I sincerely apologize. I hope what I do can earn your forgiveness!"

"Big brother, I’ll move this guy out first!" Haozi, despite being from the Luo Sijue family, had no emotional attachment to the First Generation Patriarch. So he unceremoniously stepped forward, opened the Crystal Coffin, and directly lifted out the stiff body of the Old Patriarch.

The body of the Old Patriarch was placed to the side. Ye Chen gently placed Li Ruo inside the Crystal Coffin. The cold air inside was biting, but Li Ruo lying in there, her delicate face, looked anything but lifeless. Especially those rosy cheeks, which made her seem like just a sleeping beauty.

"Xiao Ruo, I will find a way to bring you back to life!" Ye Chen touched his chest and then said, "If you don’t live, I’ll join you!"

"Big brother!" Haozi, moved by such a vow, couldn’t help but wipe away his tears and said: "I believe sister-in-law will definitely wake up!"

"I hope so too!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Big brother!" Haozi suddenly lit up and said: "I remember there is a way to bring back the dead within the Luo Sijue family legends."

"Is that true?" Ye Chen was startled.

"Yes, I only learned about it from the descriptions of the Lava Ancient Cave by the previous Clan Leaders!" Haozi nodded and said: "But I don’t remember the details, I think we should go back and check the records; there should be something!"

"Yes, let’s go now!" Ye Chen hurriedly said.

Afterward, the two of them hurriedly headed toward the castle. A glimmer of hope seemed to reappear in Ye Chen’s heart. Though he was determined to save Li Ruo, he felt like a fly on a glass pane, unable to find a way out. However, Haozi’s words were like a ray of hope in the dark, a crack in the glass.

The two entered the castle and began to search through the notes of past Clan Leaders. Finally, they found a section in an old journal about resurrection: the Ninth Floor of the Lava Ancient Cave, the former site of the Phoenix Nirvana, and the Nuwa Refining Stone...

The text about this record was sparse, but Ye Chen grasped some key points. To revive Li Ruo, one must be Li Ruo’s true love, then enter the Ninth Floor of the Lava Ancient Cave and refine a Phoenix Rebirth Pill with one’s own blood. Feed it to Li Ruo, and resurrection could be achieved.

Of course, resurrection isn’t something anyone can utilize. Certain conditions must be met: first, the blood of the deceased’s true love; secondly, entering the Ninth Floor of the Lava Ancient Cave; finally, obtaining the blood shed during the Phoenix Nirvana in the Lava Ancient Cave. Given the passage of time, obtaining this blood required an incredible stroke of luck. Crafting a Phoenix Rebirth Pill was near impossible.

Once, a Clan Leader attempted this feat, as confessed by the Old Patriarch. He was the only one in the history of the Luo Sijue family to reach the Ninth Floor, also to save his woman who died of illness. However, he ultimately failed. The primary reason for his failure was the inability to find phoenix blood, preventing the creation of a Phoenix Rebirth Pill.

"Big brother, are you really planning to go in?" Haozi asked in astonishment.

"No!" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and shook his head, "Not right now!"

"Big brother...?" Haozi was stunned.

"I’m going to take revenge for Xiao Ruo first!" Ye Chen gritted his teeth, a hint of madness in his gaze. The murderous intent in his eyes was enough to frighten an ordinary person.

This one trace of murderous intent was enough to make ordinary people tremble with fear.

Meanwhile, in Tokyo, the city had descended into chaos as thousands of little brothers from the Heavenly Reversal Gang, armed with rifles, rampaged through the streets and alleys, looting and rioting. This was not a regular military unit, nor did they come with any intent to occupy; they purely came to cause chaos. As a result, Japan’s military and police were at a loss on how to handle it and could only resort to casting a wide net and hoping to catch some fish.

However, such a strategy couldn’t possibly bring peace back to Tokyo. During the chaos, as dawn broke over the city streets, the inhabitants of Tokyo, who had stayed awake all night, were on edge. Some people hid in their homes, afraid to go outside. Those fond of nightlife mostly met their end at the muzzle of a gun.

Feng Zhixiao, where’s Ye Chen?" Yao Yue urgently questioned Feng Zhixiao.

"Didn’t Brother Chen leave with Mr. Li?" Feng Zhixiao was thrilled internally that this sister-in-law, rarely seen, had appeared now. He quickly replied: "I’m looking for Brother Chen’s whereabouts!"

"Then... what happened to Li Ruo?" Yao Yue asked anxiously, concerned about Li Ruo. But more anxious about Ye Chen. The most important thing in Ye Chen’s heart was Li Ruo. If something happened to Li Ruo that upset Ye Chen, then... it would be trouble.

"Damn it, I’ll kill all the Japanese Imperial Army today!" Feng Zhixiao gritted his teeth, shooting a few fleeing Japanese in panic.

"Damn it, hurry up and find Ye Chen for me!" Yao Yue cried out urgently.

By dawn the streets of Tokyo had already burst into chaos. The white glow of the east emerged, but Tokyo resembled a city of disorder. Smoke rose everywhere. The people of Tokyo who hadn’t slept all night were on edge. Some stayed hidden indoors, afraid to venture out. Those fond of nightlife had mostly perished under the gunfire.
