“I originally thought this would be a straightforward, thrilling match.”

“After all, I am from Beishan Main City, which is under the Royal Family, and I subconsciously thought that I was on the same side as Witch Wu Changkong. When the two of us fought, it should have been more pure and exhilarating. Thus, I spent a full cup of tea’s time fighting with him in this temple. At first, it was just a proper exchange. I must say, Witch Wu Changkong is indeed very skilled, as I almost lost to him even when I was fully prepared. However, I managed to turn the situation around at last and beat him by a small margin!”

At this point, Huang Taiji furrowed his brow and sighed heavily: “It was precisely because I defeated Witch Wu Changkong that the tragedy happened later. Seeing that I was winning repeatedly, Witch Wu Changkong suddenly changed faces and began to attack me for real. I never expected him to use a Xuan Tian treasure right at the beginning. Naturally, I suffered a great loss due to the inadequate defense!”

“I was seriously injured by his Xuan Tian treasure, and Witch Wu Changkong clearly wanted to kill me. Although I still had some tricks up my sleeve, I was ultimately injured by the treasure due to being weakened when I was struck by it. Moreover, because Witch Wu Changkong had the Xuan Tian treasure, I was at a disadvantage and had my body injured!”

As Huang Taiji spoke, he was filled with resentment, and the murderous intent in his eyes represented his disillusionment.

He sneered, “I, Huang Taiji, have always been loyal to Beishan Main City and have dedicated myself to the Royal Family. Yet, for the simple reason that I defeated Witch Wu Changkong by a margin, he wanted to kill me. And he wanted to kill me by such means…how can a Royal Family like this be worthy of my loyalty? I, Huang Taiji, have lived a straightforward life, and I can’t bear such humiliation!”

“When Witch Wu Changkong tried to kill me, he had a guardian watching by his side. Seeing Witch Wu Changkong’s betrayal, I knew my chances of survival were slim, so I secretly separated a thread of Divine Soul Power and hid it deep underground, without being discovered by Witch Wu Changkong and his protector…”

Yang Chen thought for a moment and asked, “Senior, did you do this to inform the later generations of Beishan Main City?”

Huang Taiji nodded, “I, Huang Taiji, was once one of the leaders of Beishan Main City. In less than ten years, I could have become the highest leader of Beishan Main City. At that time, this area was where I lived. This was also the reason why I didn’t expect Witch Wu Changkong to ambush me. Choosing my territory as the battleground for our duel was a sign of sincerity, but who would have thought…”

At this point, Huang Taiji sighed, “There’s no need to mention it anymore. At the time, the residue of my Divine Soul Power created a prohibition, sealing myself within this Buddha statue. As long as someone digs up the Buddha statue eye beads I placed underground and sews them back on, it will trigger the prohibition. However, what baffles me is that, by all rights, Beishan Main City should have known that I, one of their high-ranking members, died at the hands of Witch Wu Changkong. Even if it was an inexplicable death, the place where I lived should have been thoroughly investigated by the people of Beishan Main City.”

“It would be very easy to trigger the prohibition with just a slight investigation.”

After all, the disappearance of a True Martial Realm expert in his own home is no small matter, Beishan Main City would definitely investigate.

With such an investigation, how could Huang Taiji’s hidden plan not be discovered?

However, the reality is that a thousand years have passed, and Huang Taiji’s prohibition has not been triggered.

He originally planned to tell Beishan Main City about the Royal Family’s true face with full resentment, telling them that the Royal Family was not worthy of their loyalty. But now, he didn’t even know whether to say it or not.

Actually, Yang Chen didn’t know whether to say it or not either.

He was a bit lost, not knowing what to do.

If he said it, wouldn’t it hurt Huang Taiji?

Huang Taiji was no fool, seeing Yang Chen’s expression, he knew what Yang Chen was thinking.

Looking at his hesitant appearance, Huang Taiji said, “Little guy, if you have something to say, just say it.”

“Senior Huang, to be honest, if you think like this, then the situation in the later generations may have deviated somewhat from your expectations at that time. Look at the ruined temple…” Yang Chen said.

“No, why is this temple so dilapidated? At least, this area was where I lived. Shouldn’t the people of Beishan Main City have taken good care of it? How could it have become so rundown?” Huang Taiji could not fathom it.

“Not only that…”

Yang Chen gave a bitter smile, “This entire area has become a ruin, with no one from Beishan Main City living here. It seems like they’ve completely isolated this place. I searched here for a long time, but I couldn’t find a single person.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Taiji’s heart sank.

Then, he laughed desolately, “Heh, really interesting…my dwelling place isolated and turned into ruins a thousand years after my death. It seems the only explanation is that Beishan Main City knew about Witch Wu Changkong’s murder, and they chose to continue being loyal to the Royal Family, isolating my former residence in the process.”

He seemed to have guessed this choice before but just couldn’t bring himself to believe it.

Yang Chen also thought the same, as there was no other explanation. Beishan Main City simply wasn’t the type of people who wouldn’t do such a thing.

The key point is that Huang Taiji placed too much trust in human nature. How could Beishan Main City dare to defy the Royal Family? After Wu Changkong killed Huang Taiji, it was clear to Beishan Main City that he had killed Huang Taiji.

Did Beishan Main City choose to stand up for a dead man or fight with the Royal Family to the death?

As cruel as it is, the reality is just that cold.

“Senior Huang, perhaps there are hidden facts? You cannot solely rely on assumptions…” Yang Chen tried to comfort him.

Huang Taiji waved his hand dismissively, “It’s alright, don’t comfort me, I’m not a fool either. I can understand Beishan Main City not seeking revenge on the Royal Family due to the huge gap in strength. However, after my death, Beishan Main City isolated the place where I lived just to show their loyalty to the Royal Family? Heh, well then, young man, I’ll pass my unparalleled skills from my past to you. Are you willing to accept them?”

Never having thought that happiness would come so suddenly, Yang Chen immediately said, “Junior is willing to accept!”
