Chapter 360: I Believe You’re Lying

Hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia chuckled and shook her head, “Ten years is unnecessary. I won’t take advantage of you. However, if you encounter danger, you can still find me to exchange items with your trading opportunities. For example, I can give you this kind of talisman, or even more powerful immortal talismans, array disks, spirit artifacts, elixirs, and more. Of course, you will need to cover the transaction fees.”

Ye Jian felt a bit disappointed hearing Liu Hongxia’s words.

She genuinely wanted to give the other party ten years of trading opportunities.

Ten years’ worth of trading opportunities converted into superior grade spirit stones could amount to a considerable fortune for her, but having the chance to befriend a great Immortal big shot like Liu Hongxia was undoubtedly more advantageous.

If possible, she even wanted Liu Hongxia to owe her a favor, making it easier to approach her in the future.

“Anyway, thank you, big shot. If you need anything from me in the future, just let me know,” Ye Jian assured Liu Hongxia.

Upon hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia smiled and said, “You don’t have to keep calling me big shot. If you are sincere, just call me Sister Hongxia like everyone else.”

Ye Jian’s face lit up with joy at this. She eagerly jumped at the opportunity.

“Sister Hongxia, you are truly kind. If it weren’t for you, I would definitely be dead today. From now on, I’m your person; whatever you ask me to do, I’ll do it,” Ye Jian continued to express.

If only Liu Hongxia were with her now, she would have directly bowed and appeased her.

…

While the two spoke, Ye Jian already descended onto the planet’s surface.

She did not return to her tribe, as she was uncertain whether going back would bring disaster to her family.

Although she now possessed the defense and attack talismans given by Sister Hongxia, she only had two, each usable only once.

Thus, Ye Jian chose a small city several hundred miles away from her family, where her divine sense could still perceive their situation.

As Ye Jian landed on the planet’s surface, in the outer space of the Abandoned Prison Star, an elder’s figure quickly flew in.

“Which great emperor has come to my Abandoned Prison? I humbly request an audience…”

A commanding voice of divine sense resonated throughout the entire Abandoned Prison.

Instantly, countless people and animals who sensed this powerful divine sense pressure trembled.

Ye Jian also felt this overwhelming divine sense, and her expression immediately changed.

She took out the two talismans, holding them tightly in her hands. If the situation changed, she would activate the defensive talisman at the first opportunity.

“Are you here in my Abandoned Prison hiding and lurking?”

The powerful divine sense pressure continued to echo across the Abandoned Prison.

In outer space, the elder frowned tightly.

There had indeed been an explosive attack from a great emperor level powerhouse; he could not be mistaken.

So, a great emperor level powerhouse must have passed through here.

“Could it be that they left the Abandoned Prison?”

The elder recalled the previous explosive attack from the great emperor level, as if it had shot up from the ground into outer space.

“Could it be that a great emperor level powerhouse found crossing the restrictions of the Abandoned Prison too slow and directly blasted a passage out? So that person has already left the Abandoned Prison?”

The elder felt confused and uncertain.

If the opponent were at the great emperor stage, their strength would surely surpass his, since he was only at the mid great emperor stage. It made sense that he could not sense the other person leaving.

Moreover, if a late Tribulation stage great emperor came to the Abandoned Prison, there would be no need for them to hide. As long as they communicated, he would allow them to harvest the countless living beings within the Abandoned Prison.

Seeing that the person who had just unleashed a great emperor-level attack had yet to reveal themselves, he basically concluded that they must have already departed.

If their motive was to gather the countless living beings in the Abandoned Prison to refine longevity pills effective against great emperor level beings, they would have acted long ago.

"That girl from earlier might know something…" the elder pondered.

Immediately, his divine sense began to search rapidly.

Soon, his divine sense locked onto a target.

In the next moment, he completely vanished.

On the other side, Ye Jian felt an overwhelming sense of danger. The powerful divine sense pressure made her feel as if she had needles prickling her back.

Without hesitation, Ye Jian swiftly flew out of the city and activated the defense talisman.

In an instant, a defensive barrier enveloped her within a hundred-meter radius.

"Eh!"

"Interesting!"

A surprised voice echoed.

Moments later, an elder appeared before Ye Jian.

Even with her divine sense fully extended, Ye Jian could not perceive him.

Fortunately, she could see him with her naked eyes, suggesting he had no intention of hiding.

If a powerhouse wanted to conceal themselves, someone at her cultivation level would never be able to see them.

After appearing before Ye Jian, the elder did not speak; he reached out to grab her, intending to capture her directly.

However, to his surprise, what he thought would be a sure thing failed.

His strength was blocked by a layer of protective barrier.

"Interesting."

In the next moment, the elder extended a finger and swiftly thrust it forward.

Suddenly, a massive finger-shaped shadow emerged from thin air, charging toward Ye Jian’s location.

Boom!

The finger shadow collided with the protective barrier, creating a sound that shook the heavens and earth.

Ye Jian was knocked back by the tremendous force, exceeding the speed of sound in an instant.

Yet, despite being sent flying, she remained safe, shielded by the protective barrier, without sustaining any damage.

"Eh? This shield is so powerful?"

A serious expression crossed the elder’s face.

Moments ago, he had intended to capture this woman and perform Soul Searching on her.

Now, he had to reconsider his approach.

This woman possessed an impressively powerful defense talisman.

The shield activated by this talisman was capable of blocking his attack, indicating it was a great emperor-level defense talisman.

Having such a powerful defense talisman, and being near that tremendous attack earlier, made him wonder if this woman had any connection to the late Tribulation stage great emperor.

"Young girl, I mean you no harm; I simply want to ask you some questions," the elder finally decided against using extreme methods against her.

He chose to talk to her, hoping to probe her background.

So, he moved to block Ye Jian from continuing her flight.

"Little girl…"

The elder began to speak.

Inside the protective barrier, Ye Jian wasted no time activating the red talisman.

"I don’t believe you!"

Ye Jian had no faith that the elder had good intentions.

He had attacked her right away and was now claiming he meant no harm—what a joke!

Just a moment ago, she hesitated to deploy her attack talisman, which allowed the elder to seize the opportunity to strike.

Now, she activated the talisman without a second thought.

The instant Ye Jian activated the attack talisman, the elder’s expression changed dramatically.

In that moment, every hair on his body stood on end, feeling a sense of mortal danger.

Without hesitation, he rapidly activated all his defensive measures.
