Chapter 73

Seeing Luo Chenyu's face filled with confusion.

Facing Ye Xingtong spoke again: "Do you know about the Void Secret Realm three years ago?"

At this, Luo Chenyu's mind surfaced a memory.

He nodded involuntarily.

That was a world-shaking event; countless High Tiers lost their lives in the Void Secret Realm.

"Could it be related to the Skull Wang Zuo ruins?"

Facing Ye Xingtong nodded solemnly, "Yes, within the Void Secret Realm, there is also a ruin of the Skull Wang Zuo, sealing a Beyond Tier 9 ice skeleton. If not for the timely arrival of the Barbarian God Legion's commander, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

"Sss!"

A monster Beyond Tier 9—hard to even imagine!

Most importantly, it was resolved by the Barbarian God Legion's commander—how strong must that commander be!

"How do you know? It's not mentioned online at all!"

"My grandfather also went to the Void Secret Realm back then!"

At this moment, Facing Ye Xingtong showed a look of relief, "Luckily, Grandfather said he didn't go deep—otherwise, he'd have been trapped in the Skull Wang Zuo ruins too."

"So… let's give up. It's too dangerous ahead!"

After careful thought, Luo Chenyu said, "Fine, we'll give up. Let's go back and farm monsters!"

With unknown forces at play, it's best to play it safe.

Facing Ye Xingtong was overjoyed; she feared Luo Chenyu, that stubborn mule, would ignore her and go investigate.

Not a place to linger.

The two sped toward Shiqiao.

Suddenly.

A gray-white energy barrier appeared before them, blocking the nearby Shiqiao.

"Jie jie jie… Two little brats have come—why not come in and greet your elder? Aren't you terribly impolite?"

A sinister, rasping voice came from the silent ruins.

Then.

A strange metallic sound emerged.

Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong's hearts tightened; they turned to look—and were stunned.

From the dark corner of the ruins, a short figure stepped slowly out of the shadows into their view.

The short figure was withered, as if only skin stretched over a skeleton, a few sparse strands of ghostly green hair swaying in the cold wind.

His limbs and neck were bound by black chains.

The strange metallic sound was the dragging of those chains.

"Who are you?"

Luo Chenyu steadied his nerves; he dared not use his Insight Eye, fearing he might anger the being before him.

Such a being was certainly not something two novices could provoke.

"Jie jie jie… Who am I? Jie jie jie… I am the great Undead Arcanist, Andre!"

"How many years have passed? I never thought I'd see a living person in this hellhole again."

Before Luo Chenyu could speak,

Andre grinned strangely and said, "Don't be afraid—I won't eat you!"

Luo Chenyu: "..."

With that ghastly appearance, who wouldn't be afraid?
