65: Chapter 65 You won't refuse, will you?

When hearing Wang Chen's voice, which carried the weight of heaven's decree, Ye Tian's heart tightened sharply.

The other party had indeed asked the most crucial question!

He forced himself to calm down, his face revealing just the right amount of bewilderment and panic.

Coupled with his current appearance as a pale youth who had just awakened from a serious injury, it seemed particularly realistic.

"Your Majesty... I... I do not understand what Your Majesty means?"

Ye Tian knelt on the ground, his voice carrying a "perfectly measured" tremor.

"I am Ye Tian, a member of the Family in Chiyan Ancient City. I was born and raised here, and only just woke up from a coma caused by a severe injury today... I do not know what Your Majesty means by 'where I came from'? I... I have lived in Chiyan Ancient City since I was small!"

He dared not tell the truth.

He did not know how the other party would treat him if he did.

One must know that the other party was the emperor of this world, while he was an extremely unstable anomaly; no emperor would tolerate the existence of such an anomaly!

Furthermore, he possessed ten thousand years of experience.

He believed that in front of a young emperor, as long as he did not reveal any flaws in his Soul, it should not be difficult to disguise himself as a frightened, ordinary youth.

However, Wang Chen just watched him quietly, his deep eyes devoid of any ripples, as if he had long since seen through his disguise.

He did not get angry.

He did not question him.

He only spoke slowly in a calm tone.

"I will give you one chance."

"Tell the truth."

"The opportunity exists, but only once."

"Once you miss it, you and the Family behind you will all be wiped out!"

Wang Chen's voice remained flat, but falling into Ye Tian's ears, every word felt like a ten-thousand-pound thunderbolt striking his Soul.

Especially that last sentence, "The opportunity exists, but only once," made all the hairs on Ye Tian's body stand on end!

He did not doubt for a second that the unfathomable emperor before him would absolutely do what he said!

If he tried to deceive him again, he feared that in the next second, he and the entire Family far away in Chiyan Ancient City would truly be, as the other party said—wiped out!

Cold sweat instantly soaked Ye Tian's back.

Could it be... had he really already seen through his secrets?

It must be so.

Otherwise, why could he find him so accurately just after his Rebirth?

And that method of mobilizing the world's will to open a spatial passage... for such an existence to see through the abnormality of his Soul, it seemed... not impossible after all...

Countless thoughts flashed rapidly through Ye Tian's mind.

After weighing the pros and cons, in the end, he compromised...

He dared not gamble!

And he could not afford to!

Ye Tian took a deep breath, then slowly raised his head.

At this moment, the bewilderment and panic in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a sense of world-weariness that was extremely inconsistent with his age.

"Your Majesty... your discernment is brilliant."

His voice no longer trembled, but instead became much deeper and hoarser.

"I... am indeed no longer the previous Ye Tian."

"My Soul... comes from one hundred thousand years in the future."

After saying these two sentences, he paused slightly, then continued to recount his ten-thousand-year experience.

From the chaos in the Tianxuan Dynasty to the invasion of the Wilderness World!

From his accidental Transmigration into the Canglan Realm, to rising step by step from the Canglan Realm, and finally becoming a powerhouse of the Domain Realm.

To make Wang Chen believe him, he spoke in great detail, including all the people he met and all the powerhouses he had seen, recounting everything without missing a single detail.

Of course, the reason he was so obedient and recounted things in such detail was, in the final analysis, to conceal the supreme treasure deep within his Soul.

This was his final secret, and also his only hope for a comeback in the future.

He gambled that although Wang Chen could see the abnormality in his Soul, he might not necessarily be able to perceive the existence of that supreme treasure.

After all, the level of that supreme treasure was extremely high, and its concealment was also extremely strong.

As he finished his story, the entire great hall fell into silence.

From beginning to end, Wang Chen did not say a word, just like a quiet listener.

However, it was precisely because of Wang Chen's attitude that Ye Tian's heart jumped into his throat.

He did not know if Wang Chen believed him, nor did he know how Wang Chen would deal with him.

To be honest, after experiencing death once, having finally achieved Rebirth, he really did not want to die again...

"A powerhouse returning from one hundred thousand years in the future? That is... interesting."

After hearing Wang Chen's words, Ye Tian's heart relaxed slightly, because there was no Killing Intent in the other party's tone, which meant he still had a chance...

However, Wang Chen's next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!

"I had intended to give you and your Family a chance."

"Unfortunately, you seem... not to cherish it..."

Ye Tian shook violently, lifted his head abruptly, his eyes filled with unbelievable panic.

"Your Majesty! Every word I said is true! There is absolutely no falsehood! Everything regarding the future, I have reported truthfully! I beg Your Majesty to investigate!"

To gain Wang Chen's trust, Ye Tian was even willing to swear a Soul oath to prove his innocence.

Unfortunately, Wang Chen did not give him any chance at all.

Whether what he said was true or not, Wang Chen did not know, but as someone who had experienced Transmigration, he had seen plenty of these scenarios of powerhouses experiencing Rebirth.

Which powerhouse would be a pauper after Rebirth?

Without something powerful to rely on, how could you have the nerve to call yourself someone who experienced Rebirth?

Wang Chen slowly raised his right hand, his finger gently pointing to his own temple, and said very casually.

"Although you have said a lot, the most important thing... you seem to have not said yet..."

"Boom——!!!"

Wang Chen's words exploded in Ye Tian's mind like a bolt from the blue!

In an instant, his complexion turned as pale as paper, and there was not a trace of color left!

His final trump card, his greatest secret, the reliance he thought was hidden flawlessly... had actually been seen through by the other party at a glance!

It was over!

Completely over!

The other party not only knew his identity as someone who experienced Rebirth, but also knew that he possessed a supreme treasure!

In this situation, what was the point of playing...

He had originally thought that by experiencing Rebirth with a supreme treasure, he would surely be a favored child of heaven, and would definitely be able to reach the pinnacle in the future.

Now it seemed that he was actually just a minor supporting character giving experience points to others!

After seeing the other party's reaction, Wang Chen knew he had guessed correctly; the other party had indeed not told the truth.

An existence who had lived for one hundred thousand years was indeed not simple; they were all crafty old foxes.

Fortunately, he had read countless books back in the day and was quite familiar with this kind of trope.

Moreover, after completely mastering the will of the Xuantian World, he had an almost instinctive, keen perception of any "abnormal" Soul fluctuations and space-time ripples within this world.

The abnormality deep within Ye Tian's Soul might have been able to deceive others, but in front of Wang Chen, who "represented the heavens with the Imperial Will," it was impossible to hide at all.

He only probed slightly, and this "person who experienced Rebirth" revealed his own flaws.

"Are you going to hand it over yourself? Or do you want me to do it myself?"

"I... I will hand it over!"

Ye Tian seemed to have accepted his fate and did not resist at all.

A stream of light shot directly out from his forehead, then transformed into a fist-sized, seven-colored gemstone.

After seeing this, Wang Chen just waved his hand gently, and that seven-colored supreme treasure flew directly into Wang Chen's hand.

Although Wang Chen had not yet carefully studied it, something that could carry a person across space and time, back to one hundred thousand years ago, was obviously a Heaven-Defying treasure, as anyone could easily tell.

"Not bad! As expected of a subject of my Tianxuan Dynasty, you still have some awareness!"

"Since that is the case, you might as well do me a favor; record a copy of the Cultivation Technique and Martial Skill in your mind for me."

"I assume you would not refuse, would you..."
