C176 The Note

However, just as Ye Heng reached the door, the man had already disappeared.

However, just as Ye Heng was feeling a little disappointed, he caught a glimpse of a slip of paper in the corner of his eye.

Ye Heng subconsciously bent down to pick up the slip of paper and swept his gaze over it.

He saw the content on it. It was like the messy graffiti of a child. It was extremely ugly.

However, Ye Heng's heart skipped a beat when he saw the disorderly graffiti because he recognized the disorderly ravens.

Although he had left the Ye Clan for more than three years, how could he not recognize this special piece of paper when he looked up and down in the past?

As for the messy scribbles on this special piece of paper, it was actually a kind of code used by the people of the Ye Clan to transmit messages.

They had to follow a specific decryption method to be able to successfully read the hidden characters in the code.

Even though Ye Heng had not used it for a long time, he still quickly deciphered it.

The meaning of deciphering it was, "Don't come and find me!"

After reading this information, Ye Heng was 100% sure that the person in the black robe was his uncle, Ye Wuming.

The reason he left this message behind was probably because he had fallen into some kind of crisis and did not want to involve Ye Heng, so he did not want to meet Ye Heng.

Ye Heng naturally thought of this as well. After that, a trace of worry appeared in the depths of his eyes.

After all, Ye Wuming was no longer the same as before. With the courage of the past, how could he still exert the strength of an Essence Image Stage after his dantian was broken?

Even if his mental energy was still there, without any special means of mental attack, the enormous mental energy was useless.

It could only scare Essence Vortex Stage warriors, and those who had reached Essence Gate Stage and above would probably be able to tell what was inside Ye Wuming's body with just a glance, and then attack him without any hesitation.

Although most of the warriors in the auction were Essence Vortex Stage warriors, there were also many Essence Gate Stage warriors who had hidden their true strength.

Therefore, Ye Heng was still worried about his uncle.

However, it was easier said than done for Ye Heng to find a man in such a big place by himself, not to mention that the man was trying to avoid him.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Ye Heng was powerless to find his uncle.

Just as Ye Heng turned around and was about to return to the main hall of the venue, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"En. Duke, is that you, benefactor?"

The voice that came from behind sounded a little familiar, causing Ye Heng to stop in his tracks.

After that, Ye Heng turned around to look.

He saw the end of his field of vision. A handsome young man dressed like a scholar was standing there with a smile on his face.

Ye Heng naturally knew this person. It was Tao Chen who had brought him into the black street.

"Benefactor, I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence. " Tao Chen walked three steps and two steps in front of Ye Heng. The joy on his face was obvious on his face.

At this moment, Tao Chen had temporarily forgotten the worry in his heart.

Logically speaking, Tao Chen should be discussing the auction with his Eldest Sister Tao Min and Youngest Sister Tao Xue in VIP room number four. He should not be here.

If this was the case, why was he here? It was naturally because Tao Chen was chased out by his Eldest Sister, Tao Min.

And the reason was that Eldest Sister, Tao Min, who was extremely opposed to him, took out the 'Azure Tears' to exchange for Tao Mins.

Just a few breaths after Tao Min left the 'Azure Tear', strange purple stripes suddenly appeared on her pale face.

It was precisely because Tao Chen saw these strange purple stripes on Tao Min's face that he strongly opposed it.

Those devilish purple stripes were none other than the terrifying curse passed down from generation to generation in their family.

Once one's entire body was covered by these devilish purple stripes, then one would die in an extremely miserable manner.

And the most terrifying thing was that in the process of death, the cursed person could clearly feel himself walking towards the cliff of death bit by bit.

Other than the inhumane pain, there was also more spiritual despair.

That feeling of despair and helplessness was enough to make a big man whose heart was even firmer than a rock go crazy on the spot.

Tao Chen, on the other hand, was unfortunate to have seen such a scene with his own eyes.

And the one who was being dragged towards the abyss of death bit by bit was his uncle.

Tao Chen's uncle, who was as tall and unyielding as a mountain, who had once lost an arm and did not make a sound, let out miserable cries in the midst of the curse. In the end, he died in despair and helplessness.

Although that scene had been there for five years, Tao Chen still remembered it very clearly, as if it was still vivid in his mind.

Therefore, once Tao Chen thought of his Eldest Sister, Tao Min, who would also die under the torment of the curse like his Eldest Uncle, he would never agree with his Eldest Sister, Tao Min, no matter what.

Although Tao Chen clearly knew that there was a high possibility of solving the curse of his family in the Recording Crystal, he was unable to convince himself to agree to Tao Min selling the 'Azure Tears'.

Because from Tao Min's condition, Tao Chen naturally knew very well that once Tao Min completely left the 'Azure Tears', in less than three days, her entire body would be covered by the devilish purple stripes.

At that time, no miracle medicine would be able to save his Eldest Sister Tao Min.

With this thought in mind, he was afraid that no miracle medicine would be able to save his Eldest Sister, Tao Min. Therefore, Tao Chen did not care about anything and went against the norm. He firmly opposed Tao Min selling the 'Azure Tears'.

However, under the situation of two to one, Tao Chen naturally ended up like this.

After a very determined fight between him and Tao Min, he was chased out of VIP room four.

He was in a very restless mood, so he wandered aimlessly around the main hall. Fortunately, he met Ye Heng here just now, which was why the current scene happened.

After seeing Tao Chen, Ye Heng nodded his head and smiled back. "En, what a coincidence. Oh right, your sister's injuries should be better now, right?"

The last time he met Tao Chen, Ye Heng had heard from him that he was going to save his sister with the snake gall of the Shadowmist Steel Snake. That was why he asked this question.

In Ye Heng's mind, Tao Chen should have happily answered him. After all, he had successfully obtained the snake gall of the Shadowmist Steel Snake last time.

Unfortunately, the reality was very different from what Ye Heng had imagined.

After Tao Chen heard Ye Heng's words, he seemed to recall something, and his face was filled with displeasure.

Seeing this, Ye Heng curiously asked, What is it? "What? Could it be that the snake gall of the 'Mist Shadow Steel Snake' isn't enough to save your sister? That's why you came here to find a better healing medicine?"

Ye Heng saw Tao Chen's gloomy face. Combined with the reason why he appeared in the auction, that was why he asked that question.

After Tao Chen heard what Ye Heng said, he gently shook his head. "No. The snake gall of the Shadowmist Steel Snake was very useful, and it also saved my sister. "

If that's the case, why would you show such an expression? Ye Heng had a puzzled look on his face, and the thoughts in his heart were written on his face.

As if guessing what Ye Heng was thinking, Tao Chen glanced at Ye Heng and sighed. Then he slowly said, "Although the snake gall of the 'Mist Shadow Steel Snake' saved my sister's life, it won't be long before she dies again. "

Hearing Tao Chen's sad but helpless words, Ye Heng was even more confused.

Because if Tao Chen's sister was really going to die, shouldn't Tao Chen spend more time with her? Why would she still be wandering around here?

Before Ye Heng could ask anything, Tao Chen said again.

As if to find someone to talk to and vent the anger in his heart, Tao Chen poured beans like a bamboo tube and told Ye Heng everything that had just happened.

Tao Chen trusted his benefactor Ye Heng very much, so he didn't deliberately hide anything from him. He told the truth in full detail.

After a while, Ye Heng got a rough idea of what was going on.

"Benefactor, tell me. What would you do if you encountered such a situation?" Tao Chen, who had no idea what to do now, grabbed Ye Heng's life-saving straw and asked.

Ye Heng thought for a while and replied in a deep voice. " According to what you just said, no matter what choice you make, the result has already been decided. If I were to encounter such a situation, I would be more willing to save the important person in front of me than the possibility of that Ethereal. "

Ye Heng's voice was very soft and gentle. His eyes were somewhat blurred, as if he had fallen into a memory.

But after a moment, he woke up again.

Although Ye Heng did not tell Tao Chen what to do directly, Tao Chen could still get the answer he wanted from Ye Heng's words.

This answer was exactly the same as what he had just done.

After that, Tao Chen looked at Ye Heng with more respect than gratitude.

At this moment, the dilemma in Tao Chen's heart had finally been resolved. The expression on his face had relaxed, and it was no longer as tense as before.

After relaxing slightly, Tao Chen seemed to have suddenly thought of something at this moment. He suddenly patted his head and shouted at Ye Heng, "Oh, why did I forget about this matter?"

While speaking, Tao Chen touched his waist and handed Ye Heng a storage bag. He then continued, "Benefactor, this is the one thousand Essence Crystals I owe you. Please accept them. "

The one thousand Essence Crystals in this storage bag were specially requested by Tao Chen and his Eldest Sister Tao Min. The goal was to return them to Ye Heng when they met.

Even under the circumstances where this Essence Crystal was enough to determine the outcome of the auction, Tao Chen did not take out the one thousand Essence Crystals.

Tao Chen's eldest sister, Tao Min, knew that he still had one thousand Essence Crystals on him, so she did not let him take them out.

Because, no matter if it was Tao Chen or Tao Min, they all had their bottom line.

That bottom line, even if they were to die, they would never touch it.
