The person who appeared in front of him was none other than Ye Xiong!

At this moment, Ye Xiong's old face was looking at him softly.

Suddenly, the softness on his face gradually disappeared, and he sighed:

"Chen'er, when you left me, did you want to abandon me? Do you think I am a burden?"

"No! Uncle Xiong! I don't want to abandon you!"

Seeing the deep disappointment on Ye Xiong's face, Ye Qingchen suddenly panicked, and his defenses became completely confused almost instantly.

He was raised by Ye Xiong since he was a child. What he didn't want to see the most was the disappointed expression on Ye Xiong's face.

"Oh, I know that if I stay with you, I will be a burden. It is natural for you to leave me."

Ye Xiong ignored Ye Qingchen's explanation and still sighed lonely.

"Uncle Xiong, don't think so, I really don't think you are a burden!"

"On the contrary, you have always been the person I want to protect!"

Ye Qingchen said anxiously.

"Really?"

Ye Xiong's body trembled slightly and begged: "Then can you stay with me? Protect me?"

When Ye Qingchen saw Ye Xiong's pleading expression, his heart softened, so he agreed.

In this way, Ye Qingchen stayed with Uncle Xiong in Qingchen's small courtyard.

I don't know how many years have passed since I stayed here.

During this period of time, Ye Qingchen has been staying in Qingchen's courtyard. Looking at the happy expression on Ye Xiong's face every day, he also feels endless relaxation and comfort in his heart.

But he knew that this was always an illusion.

He couldn't really stay forever.

Although the fantasy is beautiful, it is still fiction.

This day.

Ye Qingchen looked up at the blue sky with a hint of gray and black, sighed softly, and walked out of Qingchen's courtyard.

"Chen'er! What are you doing? Are you leaving me?"

Ye Xiong's voice sounded from behind.

Ye Qingchen didn't look back.

He whispered: "Uncle Xiong, sometimes you leave in order to get together better."

"And if I want to protect you...protect anyone I want to protect, I must gain great power."

"I can't really become stronger by staying by your side..."

Ye Xiong's voice fell silent.

And Ye Qingchen also closed his eyes.

Behind him, the Qingchen courtyard suddenly shattered like glass.

His surroundings were once again plunged into darkness.

"You pursue great power in order to protect others. You are different from those who pursue power that I have seen before."

The voice of the mist god dragon slowly sounded:

"Congratulations, you passed the second level of the Mist Dragon Trial, 'Confused by the Mist and Asking the Heart'."

A gray-black mist flew out of the dark space and merged into Ye Qingchen's body.

Ye Qingchen's body was instantly wrapped in a cloud of gray-black mist.

At the same time, a huge soul force entered Ye Qingchen's soul space.

"This is a technique passed down from ancient times by our Wuji clan, and it's called [The Godly Transformation Code of Wujiao]."

"Although we, the Wujiao Clan, don't have as powerful bodies as the Dragon God Clan, we do have weird abilities that are far inferior to even the Dragon God Clan!"

There was a sense of pride in the tone of the Misty God Dragon.

"In addition, I will pass on part of my power to you."

"Take my power and protect the people you want to protect to the fullest!"

The sound fell, and suddenly only Ye Qingchen, who was wrapped in black mist, was left in the dark space.

————————

Ten days later.

The misty area of ​​the Mistheart Mountains.

In the mist, Ye Qingchen's figure came and went freely, as fast as lightning.

The next moment, his figure suddenly became atomized!

Three identical "Ye Qingchen" suddenly appeared in three different directions.

If anyone were here, they would definitely be shocked.

Because the auras of the three "Ye Qingchen" are actually real and the same!

"As expected of the [Mist Dragon Divine Code], just the first level of 'Thunder Flash Mist Shadow' can possess such unpredictable abilities!"

Putting away the other two "fog shadows", Ye Qingchen couldn't help but mutter to himself.

[The Mist Dragon Transformation Code] is divided into seven realms.

"Thunder Flash and Mist Shadow" is the first stage of this [Mist Dragon Transformation Divine Code].

This realm is divided into two levels. One is "Thunder Flash", which can give Ye Qingchen super-high speed like lightning.

The second is "mist shadow". In this state, Ye Qingchen can turn into a "mist shadow" that is the same as his own aura to confuse the enemy's perception.

If you practice to the top level, you can transform into a total of nine layers of "fog shadows"!

In the past ten days, Ye Qingchen has cultivated this realm to the point where he can enter the palace. He has achieved some success in "Thunder Flash" and "Mist Shadow".

Not only that.

After accepting the inheritance of the Misty God Dragon, Ye Qingchen's cultivation has reached the tenth level of the Ningzhen Realm!

"Your understanding is pretty good. You have been able to reach the first level in such a short period of time. It seems that the gentleman's vision is still as sharp as ever."

Above the mist, the figure of the mist god slowly appeared.

"In addition, you can also spend more time cultivating the second stage of the 'Phantom Spirit Mist Array'."

"If this state is used, combined with the 'Thunder Flash Mist Shadow', it will be enough to make you invincible against an opponent who is a level higher than you!"

The Misty God Jiao said: "But I don't think you have any intention of continuing to practice here."

It could see that Ye Qingchen spent the rest of his time looking away from the fog.

Ye Qingchen nodded and said: "I need to leave here as soon as possible to settle a grudge!"

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qingchen's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

He has not forgotten Mo Yue who pushed him into the fog.

If he hadn't carried Yucang Sword Vein, he would have died suddenly in this mist!

"In that case, I won't keep you any longer."

The Misty God Jiao said: "My time is running out. After I dissipate, this foggy mountain range will exist in name only."

Ye Qingchen said softly: "Senior Shenjiao, does he still have any unfulfilled wishes? You can let me know."

"If it is within the scope of the junior's ability, the junior's definition is unavoidable!"

Since he accepted the inheritance of the Misty Dragon, Ye Qingchen naturally wanted to repay him well.

"...Forget it, since you have this intention, then I can't change your mind."

The pair of gray-black eyes of the Misty God Dragon slowly raised, revealing a hint of loneliness.

"Since you possess the Yucang Sword veins, sooner or later you will go to 'that world'."

"When I get to 'that world', I hope you can take care of my descendants."

Having said this, the Misty God Dragon lowered his eyes, with a hint of request in his pupils.

"Senior Shenjiao, please rest assured. If I have the ability to go to 'that world' in the future, I will definitely take good care of my senior's descendants."

Although I still don’t know what “that world” the Misty God Jiao is talking about is.

But Ye Qingchen knew that it must be a place more vast and terrifying than the Mowu Continent.

But even so, he still didn't refuse.

"Thank you very much."
