Chapter 306: Devouring the Ancestor Vein
Chapter 306: Devouring the Ancestor Vein
The sudden turn of events startled everyone present.
Especially Ye Nantian, he struggled desperately, trying to break free from the restraints of the Purple King Vine.
However, the more he struggled, the tighter the Purple King Vine bound him.
Moreover, the juice secreted from the Purple King Vine had a potent paralyzing effect.
Gradually, Ye Nantian felt as if his body had lost all sensation.
Although the Purple King Vine was only at the One-star Marquis Level, its strength was not inferior to that of a Three-star Marquis Level because it was a plant-based Demon Beast.
Ye Nantian’s sword force was formidable, but he still couldn’t break through the tendrils of the Purple King Vine.
So, in the end, it was he who was defeated.
Xu Xin, watching this scene from the side, slightly relaxed her grip on the sword handle.
However, a trace of surprise still flashed in her eyes.
The youth before her possessed combat power comparable to an ordinary Two-star Marquis Level.
To have such a plant-based Demon Beast for protection as well?
His identity and background must be extraordinarily complicated.
"Be careful!"
Just at that moment, the two Ye Family youths previously severely injured by Xu Nian had somehow gotten up.
They had stealthily maneuvered behind Xu Nian and quietly launched an attack.
Xu Xin quickly spoke out to warn him.
However, Xu Nian seemed oblivious to the two Ye Family youths behind him, completely unconcerned.
The faces of the two Ye Family youths instantly displayed smug smiles, thinking Xu Nian hadn’t noticed their sneak attack.
But their smiles quickly froze.
For they saw a black shadow leap out from the shadows.
It reached them in the blink of an eye.
Then, a sharp claw flashed before their eyes, and their heads were viciously cleaved into pieces.
The two Ye Family scions hadn’t even gotten close to Xu Nian before they fell to the ground, dead.@@@@
Xu Xin stood dumbfounded.

Looking at the Black Dog that had smoothly landed,
her eyes were filled with terror.
A Four-star Peak Marquis Level Demon Beast?
The hopes that Ye Nantian harbored dissipated instantly, and a deep sense of despair washed over him.
Xu Nian smiled as he looked toward Ye Nantian, slowly making his way over.
"How interesting, this Green Lotus Technique of the Dan Sea Species really is miraculous. This sword must represent the origin of Ye Nantian’s Ancestor Vein Power—meaning Ye Nantian’s Ancestor Vein Power has fully transferred to me," Xu Nian’s face revealed a smile.
Of course, Ye Nantian’s Ancestor Vein Power didn’t seem to be very concentrated.
Otherwise, the power of this sword energy would be even greater.
Xu Xin at his side was completely stupefied.
Absorbing Ancestor Vein Power?
What kind of method was this?
She found the youth in front of her to be increasingly mysterious.
With her broad knowledge, she was still unable to discern which power he came from.
"Are you from overseas?" Xu Xin thought of a possibility.
That is, he came from the illusory and unreachable mountains overseas.
At the borders of the Tianhen Continent, there’s an enigmatic and boundless ocean.
Legend has it that within this ocean, there are some mystical mountains that are home to some colossal powers.
The people there are extremely powerful, and even the Imperial Family cannot contend with them.
Legend has it that Emperor Tianhen once received an Immortal from overseas with utmost respect.
Hence, Xu Xin’s first guess was that Xu Nian came from the secretive powers of the overseas Immortal mountains.
"Overseas Immortal mountains?" Xu Nian was surprised for a moment.
He then began to laugh; he had also heard of the legends about the overseas Immortal mountains.
However, for him, these were just legends, yet he had not expected Xu Xin to actually consider him someone from the Immortal mountains overseas.
"If that’s what you want to believe, then so be it!" Xu Nian did not want to reveal his identity.
Because he still couldn’t be sure if the girl before him was truly his sister.
If she was, he also didn’t know how to face her.
If she wasn’t, then his Xu Family’s identity could easily bring about unnecessary trouble.
Besides, he was currently in disguise, so it was natural that Xu Xin wouldn’t be able to recognize him.
Upon hearing Xu Nian’s ambiguous response, Xu Xin grew even more convinced that Xu Nian came from some mysterious power.
"You should take care of the wound on your shoulder first!" Xu Nian pointed at the sword cut on Xu Xin’s shoulder and spoke.
Xu Xin nodded upon hearing this.
She directly sat down cross-legged and began the process of healing through cultivation.
Xu Nian moved about twenty meters away from Xu Xin and sat down cross-legged.
He knew Xu Xin was still somewhat wary of him.
Thus, maintaining distance would bring her a good sense of security.
Xu Nian watched Xu Xin’s serene face quietly but felt that she increasingly resembled the appearance of his mother when she was young.
Especially those eyes, equally clear and moving.
