Chapter 1178 Not Succeeding
Chen Yang sat on a chair beside him and said with a light laugh, "Many people are eyeing the human race, whether they act alone or cooperate with the Yaodu Mansion."
"They will not succeed!"
The Barbarian leader did not know why Chen Yang had such strong conviction, but he chose to believe Chen Yang. There was no other reason than the help the human race had given the barbarians this time!
"Don't worry, Chief Chen Yang. When the time comes, the barbarians will definitely go all out to help the human race resist the mortal realm."
Hearing this, Chen Yang merely smiled and nodded. Whether the barbarians would come later was not within Chen Yang's plans at all.
As a Medical Saint Celestial Venerable, Chen Yang had treated countless patients.
He had seen too much of what was called human nature.
"Enough of that. There is something else I need your help with."
Chen Yang had some reservations about whether he should ask the Barbarian leader for help, but after much thought, it seemed that only the Barbarian leader present could assist him.
Upon hearing that Chen Yang needed his help, the Barbarian leader did not refuse. He did not even think twice before saying, "It's too formal to say such things to me!"
"As long as it concerns the human race, I will naturally do my utmost."
"However, if it involves killing someone... especially someone above the fifth layer of Hedan, that might be a bit difficult."
Fearing that Chen Yang might think he was shirking responsibility, the Barbarian leader quickly added, "Anyone above the fifth layer of Hedan is a crucial existence, regardless of their power."
"Hedan powerhouses have various means to track down those behind them. If they are investigated, they will be targeted by other Hedan powerhouses."
The Barbarian leader's words were sincere, and Chen Yang immediately smiled and said, "It's not about fighting, I'm just worried that heavenly tribulations will descend, and at my current realm, I won't be able to withstand them."
Upon hearing that it was only heavenly tribulations, the Barbarian leader immediately waved his hand, "Oh, it's just that. A small matter, a small matter!"
But in the next second, the Barbarian leader suddenly remembered something.
He had helped Chen Yang withstand heavenly tribulations before... just two days ago!
The heavenly tribulations themselves were not important. What was most important were the side effects that followed the heavenly tribulations!
They shortened one's lifespan!
The Barbarian leader hastily said, "If it's the same kind of heavenly tribulation as before, cough cough... can you give me some more pills?"
After receiving Chen Yang's affirmative reply, the two immediately found a quiet place.
After all, the Barbarian leader did not want heavenly tribulations to harm anyone else.
Looking at the items Chen Yang produced, the Barbarian leader asked strangely, "Who are you planning to scheme against?"
Chen Yang almost spat out a mouthful of blood and said awkwardly, "It's not a scheme. It's just that two people from the human race have gone missing, and it happened on the battlefield, so I want to calculate where these two people are."
"Someone from the human race is missing?" Cold sweat immediately broke out on the Barbarian leader's forehead.
Chen Yang nodded heavily, pinching three ancient coins in his hand. "There is news that someone from the Great Perfection of Hedan has taken action, the so-called powerhouses you speak of."
Regarding Chen Yang's suspicion, the Barbarian leader immediately said solemnly, "Damn it, impossible. If a Hedan powerhouse had taken action, and it was on the barbarian battlefield, I would definitely have known."
Chen Yang did not answer the question, as Daozhi had not witnessed it firsthand but had only calculated it using Taoist methods.
The karma involved was too immense for Daozhi's methods to decipher. Chen Yang had decided to use the methods left behind by Qin Yi.
Chen Yang closed his eyes and concentrated, and the Eight Characters of the deceased two appeared in his sea of consciousness.
Instantly, a powerful aura appeared on the three ancient coins.
Although Chen Yang could not see it, the Barbarian leader could clearly see a human-like figure moving above the three ancient coins in the air.
At the same time, thunderclouds instantly gathered. The Barbarian leader raised an eyebrow. These thunderclouds seemed much stronger than before!
The Barbarian leader clearly remembered that the heavenly tribulation he had previously withstood was for Chen Yang to investigate him.
Now that the thunderclouds were stronger than before, what did it mean? It meant that Chen Yang's current investigation of this person was even more powerful and mysterious than before?
The Barbarian leader's mouth twitched. The human race was truly a piece of meat being fought over by various factions!
The moment the thunderclouds descended, the Barbarian leader directly bore the heavenly tribulation.
The lifespan consumed made the Barbarian leader secretly tremble. The appearance of a lock of white hair also made the Barbarian leader feel a pang of heartache.
After all, this was real lifespan!
After Chen Yang finished his calculations, he put away his things and looked at the Barbarian leader, also noticing the lock of white hair.
However, before Chen Yang could ask, the Barbarian leader immediately told Chen Yang what he had seen.
"Someone interfered?" Chen Yang's brow furrowed. The divination method taught by Qin Yi should not be altered by any power, as it borrowed the power of heaven and earth.
This was why it incurred heavenly retribution and reduced one's lifespan.
Seeing that Chen Yang could not give a clear explanation, the Barbarian leader anxiously asked Chen Yang about the results of his calculations, "Could it be that a Hedan powerhouse was indeed involved?"
Chen Yang revealed a bitter smile, shook his head, and sighed helplessly, "It should be. The karma between the other party and the human race is very heavy, so some clues were found."
"As for the two missing individuals, they are not dead. They were likely taken away by the other party."
"What I find strange now is, where did this guy come from!"
A Hedan powerhouse suddenly appeared and took away two humans. Was he trying to find secrets of the human race from them?
However, the two missing humans were originally from the mortal realm. They only knew about the Land of Hope and not much else.
After all, their cultivation was not high.
Upon hearing that a Hedan powerhouse had indeed taken action, the Barbarian leader gritted his teeth and cursed a few times.
"This guy probably dealt with someone not strong, otherwise if I truly fought against a Hedan realm, I would have at least sensed something. What should we do now? Could it be that the Master of the Yaodu Mansion is the one?"
Chen Yang put away the three ancient coins, stood up, and said, "For a Hedan powerhouse, at most I can calculate some karma. To calculate their location, the lifespan consumed would be a hundred times that of now. Even you couldn't endure it, it's not worth it."
The Barbarian leader touched his white hair, a shiver of fear running through him.
If it were truly a hundred times the lifespan consumed, as Chen Yang said, he would not just feel heartache but would spit blood.
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, it's not worth it!"
Although the true identity of the other party could not be ascertained, Chen Yang calculated that the other party did not show any malice towards the human race.
Just as Chen Yang and the Barbarian leader were considering how much more medicinal pills to use as "nutritional supplements,"
In a mysterious place in the mortal realm, an old man with white hair looked at the two Foundation Establishment humans before him and fell into thought.
Just for two ordinary humans, that guy named Chen Yang was willing to consume his lifespan to investigate him!
