The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2601 - 2590: Here to Die of Your Own Accord?

The memories swirling in Ye Chenfeng’s mind were almost complete.

In the final recollection, it was clearly explained that the Eternal Emperor had hidden all his ultimate teachings within his own body, and only by dripping the blood of the Skyhawk onto his body could one obtain the legacy of the Eternal Emperor.

Does the Eternal Emperor intend for his descendants to avenge him?

The Eternal Emperor’s body was extremely tough, generally impossible to damage, and even if it could be damaged, it was unclear where the legacy was hidden within his body. Must the body remain intact to obtain the legacy?

With his eyes closed, Ye Chenfeng absorbed this memory. After browsing through it, he slowly opened his eyes.

Upon opening his eyes, he suddenly saw Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er not far away.

These two women had vacant eyes, like wooden stakes, and they were strangling each other’s necks. They were squeezing harder and harder, on the verge of snapping each other’s necks, yet showed no signs of pain on their faces.

Ye Chenfeng immediately darted towards Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, pressing his palms on each of their foreheads, gently injecting Spiritual Energy into their bodies.

Quickly.

Their eyes began to regain their liveliness, yet they were still confused, their hands still around each other’s necks!

After Ye Chenfeng explained what had just happened, they broke out in a cold sweat, realizing they had almost perished together.

They only remembered that after seeing the terrifying eyes carved on the wall, they entered into an illusion where a ghostly figure was choking them, leaving them no choice but to choke each other.

After listening to Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er’s accounts, Ye Chenfeng’s gaze shifted to the pair of eyes engraved on the wall.

His eyes remained fixed: "There’s an Illusion Array hidden within, and you both fell into its illusion earlier."

To acquire the Eternal Emperor’s legacy, Ye Chenfeng needed to drip the Skyhawk’s blood onto the Eternal Emperor’s body.

It now seemed that the voice that had echoed in his mind earlier was from the Skyhawk, and the golden coffin floating outside in mid-air likely contained the Skyhawk himself.

As for the remnants of consciousness within the eternal water, that must also come from the Skyhawk.

Besides the Eternal Emperor’s corpse and the wall patterns, there was nothing special in this palace.

Ye Chenfeng walked towards the ground.

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er didn’t ask many questions and continued to follow Ye Chenfeng.

At this moment.

On the ground.

Shi Gaoyang, An Juncai, and Qiu Hao had arrived at the entrance to the underground. They didn’t immediately venture below—a place rife with danger and peculiarity, enveloped in darkness that revealed nothing of what lay within. Was Ye Chenfeng really down there? Had he set any traps?

Though Shi Gaoyang and his colleagues did not believe Ye Chenfeng’s cultivation surpassed the Divine King Realm, the danger of hidden threats was a well-understood truth. Charging into the unknown ground offered them no benefit.

Shi Gaoyang glanced at the golden coffin overhead, attempting to shift the topic: "Do you think the coffin holds the Eternal Emperor? Now that the Spiritual Qi River has recovered, should we float up and investigate?"

Qiu Hao shook his head: "Shi Gaoyang, the coffin probably contains the Eternal Emperor himself. Just a while ago, the voice of the Eternal Emperor even echoed above. If we find the key to open the coffin, we can access his legacy."

"Rushing to the coffin without the key could lead to unforeseen dangers,"

An Juncai nodded in agreement: "Qiu Hao’s right. Let’s handle that kid first—each of us will rely on our skills to claim the Eternal Emperor’s legacy."

As Shi Gaoyang stared at the entrance below, he resolved to proceed cautiously when he heard footsteps approaching: "It sounds like someone’s coming up—it could be that kid."

An Juncai and Qiu Hao also noticed the sound, their gazes fixed on the entrance. With someone coming up, entering underground seemed unnecessary.

As time passed.

The footsteps grew clearer until Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er came into view.

Unconsciously, Shi Gaoyang exclaimed: "Lan Ruo, is it you down there? Is that kid with you?"

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er naturally understood he referred to Ye Chenfeng. They knew Ye Chenfeng’s cultivation, at the initial stage of the Divine Emperor Realm—his physical prowess was extraordinary. Compared to him, Shi Gaoyang and the others were insignificant ants.

Even though Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er harbored no fondness for Shi Gaoyang and the rest, they were acquainted. Song Lanruo spoke: "Shi Gaoyang, let bygones be bygones."

Upon hearing her words, Shi Gaoyang assumed Song Lanruo was pleading for Ye Chenfeng, making his already menacing face twist further: "Lan Ruo, do you think I can let bygones be bygones with that kid after what he did to me?"

On their way up previously.

Ye Chenfeng had paused midway when the Skyhawk’s voice echoed in his mind again, instructing Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er to go ahead.

"Song Lanruo, Fang Duo’er, I urge you to step back this time. You’ve just been with that kid, right? Now that the Spiritual Qi River in your meridians is restored, you should know his cultivation, yes? Advocating for him suggests he’s weaker than us," Qiu Hao said arrogantly.

An Juncai chimed in: "Didn’t he call us good dogs earlier? I’ll make him bark like a dog. He was so arrogant then."

Seeing Shi Gaoyang and the others’ actions, Song Lanruo could only smirk bitterly. She was indeed speaking on behalf of them, not Ye Chenfeng.

The demoness Fang Duo’er said: "Sister Lan Ruo, why are we even bothering with them."

Just then.

Ye Chenfeng emerged from below.

Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng, Shi Gaoyang and the others all cracked their knuckles, their auras surging.

Ye Chenfeng had no interest in wasting time on these pests. His Divine Emperor Realm Initial Stage aura burst forth: "Do you not have an inkling of what pests you are?"

"Persistent buzzing pests are easily swatted. Have you come seeking death?"
