Chapter 2380 - 2381: Secrets
Previously, Olivia had already asked Lian Xing, but Lian Xing didn’t answer Olivia, and Olivia also told Ye Xunhuan about it!
However, Ye Xunhuan still wanted to ask Lian Xing.
If Lian Xing’s strength was average, then it would be fine not to ask. But Lian Xing’s strength is incredibly powerful, which indicates that there must be a formidable force behind her.
Although, as of now, they are friends and not foes with Lian Xing, what about the future?
So Ye Xunhuan had to ask, even if he didn’t get an answer, he still had to ask!
"Young Master Ye is right. I’m not from any ancient martial arts family, and indeed, there is a great power behind me," Lian Xing said truthfully, "but what kind of power it exactly is, I can’t tell Young Master Ye at the moment!"
"But I can tell Young Master Ye, we are not enemies."
"Is that so?"
"If Young Master Ye doubts, there’s nothing I can do," Lian Xing said softly, "Even though I can’t tell you about the power behind me, I can tell you about some other things!"
"What things?"
"Things about the underground world!"
"Is there anything about the underground world that I don’t know?"
"You don’t know, but she knows!"
As she spoke, Lian Xing slowly focused her gaze on Olivia: "It’s just that she might not take it seriously!"
Olivia was startled: "What are you talking about?"
"The top ten overlords of the underground world reign supreme, right?" Lian Xing said nonchalantly.
"That’s common knowledge!"
"But is it really the top ten overlords who rule supreme?" Lian Xing said with a half-smile and looked at Olivia.
As soon as Olivia heard this from Lian Xing, she fell into deep thought, and then it seemed like she remembered something, her face immediately showing shock: "Could... could that legend be true?"
Lian Xing nodded: "Yes, it’s true!"
Ye Xunhuan beside them showed a puzzled expression: "What are you two talking about?"
"That’s a rumor from long ago, so long that I’ve almost forgotten it, so long that almost no one remembers it!" Olivia took a deep breath and said.
"What rumor?"
"The top ten overlords of the underground world reigning supreme is just a structure, but the top ten overlords are not invincible, and there are people who can subdue them!" Olivia said softly, "Above these ten overlords are the four sovereigns!"
"But these four sovereigns haven’t appeared for almost a century, so I thought they were just a rumor, but who would have thought she’d mention them today!"
Olivia’s gaze slowly fell on Lian Xing.
She, Olivia, is a vampire, with a long life, so she knows about this, but Lian Xing is just an ordinary person, and she’s just in her twenties, how does she know?
Countless doubts immediately surfaced in Olivia’s mind.
Once Lian Xing felt Olivia’s puzzled gaze, she immediately understood her meaning and said softly, "One day you’ll know how I knew about this!"
"But I can tell you, it’s true," Lian Xing said calmly, "In the underground world, you are not at the top of the pyramid; standing at the top of the pyramid are four other people!"
"Do you know them?"
"I’ve met one!" Lian Xing said very frankly, "His name is Dionysus, and he’s very strong!"
"How strong?"
"The three of us together couldn’t kill him, it’s basically the same as facing a king," Lian Xing said helplessly!
Hearing this from Lian Xing, both Ye Xunhuan and Olivia’s eyes widened in shock!
"Is he really that strong?"
"Yes!" Lian Xing nodded and said truthfully, "However, the four sovereigns of the underground world are not all Westerners!"
"Is there someone from Huaxia as well?"
"Dionysus is from Huaxia!" Lian Xing said softly, "The so-called four are East, West, South, and North!"
"The four restrain each other and complement each other simultaneously; they won’t get involved in any affairs, nor do they have any interests with anyone; they are just solitary adventurers!"
As she spoke, Lian Xing’s tone shifted, "Of course, all these premises are based on the order in the underground world not being chaotic; if it is, they will intervene!"
"Moreover, they won’t allow only one overlord in the underground world, so you two better not go killing overlords, or death will come upon you!"
Afraid that the two wouldn’t believe her words, Lian Xing reminded them again: "Don’t think I’m joking with you; if the four of them join forces, you will surely die without a burial place!"
"If they don’t come to trouble us, naturally we won’t go after them!" Ye Xunhuan said calmly, "But suddenly I’m quite interested in these four sovereigns!"
"You’ll definitely meet Dionysus!" Lian Xing said confidently, "Let me also share a piece of good news with you!"
"What news?"
"Dionysus greatly admires you," Lian Xing said, looking at Ye Xunhuan with some envy, "He even wants you to inherit his position and become a being above the underground world overlords!"
"Dionysus knows me?"
"The underground world overlord Marshal, bearing He Luo, holding the Taiji Seal, wielding the Whitehead Taixuan Classic, how could Dionysus not pay attention to you!"
On Ye Xunhuan’s face, a look of shock slowly appeared; the matter of the Taiji Seal and the Whitehead Taixuan Classic on him was almost common knowledge, but few knew about He Luo, yet Dionysus actually knew.
What kind of person is this guy? Have I met him?
"I’m more and more curious about your identity now!" Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath and said, "Knowing so many secrets and having met Dionysus, it seems your background is extraordinary, and the power behind you is probably sky-high, right?"
"Young Master Ye is joking!" Lian Xing shook her head and said, "If we could reach the sky, do you think the king could still control Huaxia’s martial artists?"
"Maybe you don’t care about those things?"
"How many people in this world do you think can escape the lure of power and money?"
Ye Xunhuan fell silent. There are many people in this world, but there are indeed few who don’t care about power and money.
"Your mouth is quite tight too!"
Lian Xing smiled and said, "Since Young Master Ye knows, then don’t bother trying to get anything out of me; it’s useless!"
"What can be said, you don’t need to ask, I will naturally say, and what can’t be said, I absolutely won’t speak!"
"I have one last thing?"
"Please go ahead, Young Master Ye?"
"Was it you who killed Abe Matsuyasu and saved me and my wife in the past?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan’s gaze became incredibly sharp, as if it could pierce through someone’s soul!
