Chapter 3345: Untying Ye Tong's Heart Knot, the Huang Quan's Numerous Experiment Subjects

~8 min read 1,418 words

"Experiment No. 7?"

Jun Xiaoyao furrowed his brows.

Ye Tong continued to speak on her own.

She did not know where she had come from, who she was, or if she had parents or a family.

Because from the moment she had consciousness, she had been imprisoned in an experimental dungeon of the Huang Quan.

Accepting all kinds of experiments.

That was a kind of torture that was hard to imagine.

Ye Tong also did not know how she had managed to persist.

In her spare time, she was all alone, so she would casually take some waste materials and carve all sorts of dolls.

One could imagine, a dark and terrifying dungeon, a lonely girl with no one to rely on.

This was her only pastime.

And it had continued ever since.

Originally, Ye Tong had thought that such an existence would continue forever.

Who would have thought that later on.

The Huang Quan experienced some kind of turmoil.

She seized the opportunity and finally escaped that nightmare place.

But she was pursued by the Huang Quan.

Later, she suffered heavy injuries.

Inadvertently, she stumbled into a treasure land where the Great Emperor of Yellow Springs had once gone into seclusion.

The Great Emperor of Yellow Springs, seeing her extraordinary talent, saved her.

Concealing her identity and origins for her.

From then on, there was an additional Black King within the Nine Springs.

And to repay the kindness of the Great Emperor of Yellow Springs.

During the later civil strife in the Nine Springs.

Ye Tong also took action, personally slaying the traitor, the White King, and the others.

But she also paid a great price for it, her true body heavily injured and falling into a deep slumber.

Leaving behind only her soul-split Dao fruit, which was the girl Ye Tong that Jun Xiaoyao had first met.

After listening to Ye Tong's narration.

Jun Xiaoyao was silent.

He finally understood why Ye Tong had such a personality that kept people at a distance.

He also understood why she was so resistant to the outside world, repelled others, and was unable to trust anyone.

This was a woman with a tragic life story.

Just like a wounded little beast imprisoned in a cage.

Naturally, she would have a sense of distrust toward the outside world and toward others.

In the past, even the Great Emperor of Yellow Springs who saved her had only valued her talent and worth.

As for things like family affection, friendship, or love.

For Ye Tong, they were concepts that seemed to belong to an entirely different world.

Jun Xiaoyao sighed in his heart, not knowing how to comfort her.

However, he did not show any pity.

To show pity to an existence like Ye Tong was a sign of disrespect toward her.

"I never imagined your origins were like this," Jun Xiaoyao said.

He finally knew why immortal substances were unable to affect Ye Tong.

Because she was originally an experiment subject of the Huang Quan, her constitution was extremely special.

It was understandable that she was immune to immortal substances.

"Don't you loathe me? Even I loathe myself."

"I don't know what kind of existence I am, I don't even know if I am a human."

"Or if I am just that Experiment Subject No. 7..."

Ye Tong's eyes, black as the night stars, rarely revealed a trace of distraction and trance.

It was hard to imagine that an expert like her would also reveal such a fragile and lost look.

However, the next moment, her delicate body trembled slightly.

Because Jun Xiaoyao's hand had grasped hers.

He looked at Ye Tong and said.

"You are not the Huang Quan's Experiment Subject No. 7."

"You are Ye Tong."

Simple words, making Ye Tong's breathing seem to pause.

Jun Xiaoyao did not say any flowery words.

Nor did he offer any warm, tender comfort.

Just a very simple sentence: You are Ye Tong.

It was enough to make Ye Tong's heart and mind tremble.

Originally, her world had been a curtain of night.

And Jun Xiaoyao's appearance made her understand.

That she, too, had the right to cast off the darkness of the past and pursue the light.

"So, don't dwell on your past."

"As long as you are Ye Tong now, that is enough," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Ye Tong took a deep breath.

"Thank you."

She said.

Even knowing her true identity and origins.

Jun Xiaoyao's attitude had not changed in the slightest.

What she needed was this kind of respect.

Not sympathy or pity; she did not need such things.

Jun Xiaoyao also smiled.

As Ye Tong's heart knot was untied by Jun Xiaoyao.

She herself seemed to have become much more relaxed, as if the heavy burden she had been carrying had been set down.

However, she still told Jun Xiaoyao.

"Although this crisis has been resolved, the news that I am still alive will be known to the Nine Nether Divine Palace."

"Afterward, it is possible that the Huang Quan might also know of my existence."

"When that time comes, it will bring trouble to you."

Jun Xiaoyao was the only person who had walked into her heart and untied her heart knot.

Therefore, Ye Tong did not want Jun Xiaoyao to encounter any problems or trouble.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly: "You said that having a connection with you would bring misfortune."

"Then I would like to see if the Nine Nether Divine Palace or the Huang Quan has the ability to make me unfortunate."

Jun Xiaoyao had cultivated all the way here; what great winds and waves had he not experienced?

The Huang Quan of the vast starry sky, although the water ran deep.

Jun Xiaoyao was still unafraid.

"In the Huang Quan, there are still many experiment subjects, each one incomparably strange; you must be careful in the future," Ye Tong cautioned.

Precisely because she had once been one of these many experiment subjects.

She understood the terrifying nature of these experiment subjects.

The Huang Quan's terrifying research and strange experiments were by no means just empty talk.

"I understand, and I thank you for your concern, Ye Tong," Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Concern?"

Ye Tong murmured.

So this emotion of worrying about others is called concern?

Jun Xiaoyao could be said to be the first person she had ever cared about.

For some reason, thinking of this.

Ye Tong's peerlessly beautiful face, white as snow, actually flushed slightly red!

Although it was only an extremely faint trace, it was still captured by Jun Xiaoyao.

To be able to see Ye Tong blush, this was truly an extremely rare thing.

However, Jun Xiaoyao did not say anything more.

Otherwise, Ye Tong would have to add another emotion called shyness.

With this, Jun Xiaoyao had truly understood Ye Tong's origins.

And he also had a deeper understanding of the Huang Quan organization.

This was absolutely a hidden danger and threat for the future.

But at least for now, he did not need to worry too much about these things.

Afterward, Jun Xiaoyao and Ye Tong returned to a station of the Nine Springs.

The cultivators of the three major dark factions had also been integrated into the Nine Springs, each performing their own duties.

And the massive amount of resources accumulated by the three major factions were naturally accepted by the Nine Springs with a smile.

Jun Xiaoyao's Pluto Body then took advantage of these massive resources to begin breaking through.

His Three Pure Bodies had already broken through to become an Imperial Giant.

So the breakthrough of the Pluto Body was naturally even simpler.

This battle, annexing the three major factions.

Plus the previous Youxuan Pavilion.

It meant that the Nine Springs had annexed a full four major dark factions.

This made the Nine Springs even stronger, and its reputation also chased after its former peak.

At the same time, on the other side.

In the depths of the vast starry sky, within the boundless territory map.

There was a territory that belonged to the Nine Nether Divine Palace, one of the nine great divine palaces of the Heavenly Court.

This was the divine palace among the nine that acted the most low-key and was the least known to outsiders.

That Elder Mo, who had led the three major factions to deal with the Nine Springs, also fled back in a sorry state and reported the situation to the Nine Nether Divine Palace. ===== CHAPTER 3346 =====
