In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!

Chapter 386: Dangerous Mission

As for the Nine Abyssal Gate, however, he still knew very little.

A place capable of producing people like Sun Qisheng and Ling Xiaochen could hardly be considered a benevolent organization.

Yue Mingxuan fell silent for a moment before saying, "Since I’m going to the Nine Abyssal Gate, I’ll have to use some special methods."

"I’ll go with you."

"No. Too many people know your identity."

"But if you can disguise yourself and go under a different identity, why can’t I?"

Shang Qinghua immediately countered.

Yue Mingxuan shook his head.

"If I go alone, it will be much easier to fabricate a false identity."

"We can simply claim to be a couple on the run."

Shang Qinghua pulled Yue Mingxuan into his arms.

"I don’t care. I support your decision this time, but I’m going with you."

Yue Mingxuan knew that he was unlikely to win an argument against Shang Qinghua.

It was not that he truly did not want Shang Qinghua to accompany him.

The problem was that Shang Qinghua’s presence would inevitably increase the danger he faced.

His current situation could no longer be considered particularly safe.

How could Yue Mingxuan bear to make it even more dangerous?

"If you refuse to take me with you, then I won’t agree to let you go either."

For the first time, Shang Qinghua’s expression became exceptionally serious.

Yue Mingxuan sighed and ultimately had no choice but to agree to his request.

He would do everything possible to make Shang Qinghua’s situation safer.

At present, that was probably all he could do.

"Infiltrating the Nine Abyssal Gate isn’t actually the most urgent matter right now. As for the things you need in order to prove your identity, besides that jade pendant, there seems to be something else as well."

"What is it?"

"The Hidden Jade Bracelet."

Shang Qinghua pointed toward the bracelet on Yue Mingxuan’s wrist and said,

"This Hidden Jade Bracelet possesses the ability to recognize its master. The fact that it acknowledged you as its owner back then was not a coincidence. Most likely, you were its original master from the very beginning."

"Are you sure?"

Yue Mingxuan raised an eyebrow.

Were those two matters really connected?

He deeply doubted Shang Qinghua’s explanation.

"This Hidden Jade Bracelet originally seemed to belong to The Black Archon. If I remember correctly, it was something left behind by the previous Imperator Jin."

Shang Qinghua spoke calmly and unhurriedly.

"Are you certain?"

"I’m very certain."

Shang Qinghua smiled before continuing, "So there is no need for you to infiltrate the Nine Abyssal Gate as a spy. No matter how you look at it, that kind of mission is simply too dangerous."

"No. Regardless of what happens, I still have to visit the Nine Abyssal Gate at least once."

Yue Mingxuan had already made up his mind.

No matter how much Shang Qinghua tried to stop him, he refused to give up.

The last time Shang Qinghua had seen Yue Mingxuan display this level of determination was when he insisted on learning the Heavenly Profound Ninth Moon technique.

Back then, that extraordinary cultivation method had indeed caused a period of severe side effects.

However, Shang Qinghua had also witnessed Yue Mingxuan’s transformation.

He had watched Yue Mingxuan’s abilities become astonishingly powerful almost overnight.

Although there had been signs of cultivation deviation, Shang Qinghua knew that Yue Mingxuan was ultimately fine.

Therefore, this time, he chose to trust Yue Mingxuan’s decision as well.

He believed Yue Mingxuan would not recklessly bring trouble upon himself.

He also believed that Yue Mingxuan would certainly accomplish things even better than expected.

In truth, Yue Mingxuan had always been extremely capable.

Shang Qinghua had merely spent a long time deliberately or subconsciously overlooking that fact.

Deep down, he never wanted Yue Mingxuan to become too powerful because Yue Mingxuan was the person he loved.

At the very beginning, all he had wanted was to keep Yue Mingxuan by his side and cherish him as though protecting something precious.

However, he had never expected Yue Mingxuan’s abilities to continue growing stronger and stronger.

Still, that was not necessarily a bad thing.

In an era where people devoured one another to survive, someone without the strength to protect themselves would inevitably be abandoned by the times.

Shang Qinghua never wanted his Yue Mingxuan to end up in such a tragic state.

He only hoped that Yue Mingxuan would become stronger, regardless of the form that strength took.

"You really intend to go to the Nine Abyssal Gate?"

The person questioning Yue Mingxuan was none other than Tang Youyou.

She had only recently finished handling various matters within the Flying Opera Group and had come specifically to see Yue Mingxuan.

Instead, she learned this piece of news from the servants.

Back in Beirong, Tang Youyou had genuinely disliked Yue Mingxuan.

Yet now that Yue Mingxuan intended to venture somewhere so dangerous, she found herself unexpectedly worried.

Although she did not like Yue Mingxuan, the man she loved, Shang Qinghua, loved him deeply.

There had even been times when she wondered whether Shang Qinghua might become happier and more carefree if Yue Mingxuan were gone.

But now she understood the truth.

Without Yue Mingxuan, Shang Qinghua had seemed to lose nearly everything.

Because of that realization, she no longer tried to interfere with their relationship.

After all, it had never been something she truly had the power to stop.

"Why do you want to go to the Nine Abyssal Gate?"

"I want to know the truth about my origins."

"You should not go for something like that. You know perfectly well how dangerous the Nine Abyssal Gate is."

Tang Youyou’s expression grew increasingly agitated.

"Why would you say that?"

"I once spent time within The Black Archon myself. Although I never fought the Nine Abyssal Gate directly, the sisters around me were killed by the Nine Abyssal Gate one after another..."

Tang Youyou stopped halfway through her sentence.

She could not continue.

Two tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.

Her expression was filled with sorrow and desolation.
