The Beautiful CEO’s Super Soldier King

Chapter 1809: The Secret of the Ancient Scroll

"As far as I know, the Dark Council still exists in this world. Moreover, it is very active. I have a premonition that they will emerge not long from now."

Claude said confidently.

After listening to Claude’s comments, Ye Chenfeng had a feeling that the Dark Council might be playing a long game, spanning several centuries.

Maybe even he himself was just a pawn in their game.

"And judging from recent events, many Divine Level and Saint Level experts who had disappeared are slowly reappearing, and the Supreme List will likely make a comeback. The Supreme List is a warning from the Dark Council, a reminder that they know everything about this world, to observe keenly and not miss any detail."

Claude dropped another bombshell.

"The Supreme List?"

"The Supreme List targets Saint Level experts. Perhaps even His Excellency, the Forbidden God King, will make it onto the list."

Ye Chenfeng chuckled, "I have no interest in this damned list."

...

Leaving the United Kingdom, Ye Chenfeng made a high-profile exit, and no one dared to stop him.

A month later, he returned to the Capital City, but nothing happened there.

The Eight Great Families remained quiet, and the Four Great Royal Families made no moves.

The person Ye Chenfeng was most concerned about, Ye Mingtian, also had no news—it’s as if he had passed away.

Ye Chenfeng went straight to Chu Corporation. When Gu Jundie saw Ye Chenfeng, she immediately stood up, wanting to speak, but he didn’t pay her any attention and rushed into Chu Qingxue’s office.

Chu Qingxue was handling documents; seeing Ye Chenfeng suddenly appear frightened her, leaving her stunned.

"Come, let’s go to the bedroom. I have something precious to show you."

Without waiting for a response, Ye Chenfeng pulled Chu Qingxue into the inner compartment, the resting room.

Chu Qingxue blushed, her eyes revealing a hint of shyness.

"Here, open it and see the treasure."

Inside the resting room, Ye Chenfeng handed the Ancient Scroll to Chu Qingxue.

Chu Qingxue looked shocked, "What is this?"

As she spoke, Chu Qingxue opened the Ancient Scroll.

A jaw-dropping moment occurred; Chu Qingxue easily opened the Ancient Scroll.

"What are these things? I can’t understand any of it."

Chu Qingxue voiced her confusion.

Ye Chenfeng looked over immediately, and upon seeing the content of the Ancient Scroll, he was equally baffled.

The scroll was full of dense symbols and characters with no discernible pattern.

After observing for a while, Ye Chenfeng was completely perplexed.

These were definitely the most bizarre, obscure, and incomprehensible symbols or characters he had ever seen.

"What is this really?"

Chu Qingxue watched in silence.

Ye Chenfeng smiled, "Xue’xue, if I tell you only one person in the world can open this book, would you believe it?"

Chu Qingxue looked at Ye Chenfeng and shook her head, "I don’t believe it."

"If you don’t believe, look!"

Ye Chenfeng took back the Ancient Scroll from Chu Qingxue, closed it, then forcefully opened it.

To everyone’s surprise, Ye Chenfeng managed to open the Ancient Scroll.

"See, right?"

Chu Qingxue’s beautiful eyes flashed as she glared at Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng looked at the Ancient Scroll in his hand, utterly puzzled.

Perhaps Chu Qingxue had removed some kind of restriction from the Ancient Scroll, which caused this.

"Alright then, I’ll come back to see you later; I’ve got work to do now."

Chu Qingxue wanted to say something else, but Ye Chenfeng disappeared like the wind.

Back at the base camp, everyone gathered around.

"Opening it is possible, but it doesn’t serve any purpose."

Ye Chenfeng looked helpless.

"What’s going on?"

After everyone went through the Ancient Scroll, they immediately understood what was happening.

Even Adolf and Tang Jue, who were knowledgeable about peculiar and strange things, hesitated at the sight.

"Divine King, this script seems incredibly rare. You should try consulting someone who studies ancient texts."

Someone suggested.

Ye Chenfeng’s eyes brightened, "Right, I have a solution!"

Half an hour later, Ye Chenfeng found Lan Yahui’s grandparents.

"Young Master, you’ve finally come? We’ve been waiting for you for a long time."

Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan’s faces were filled with excitement upon seeing Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng said no more, taking out the Ancient Scroll and handing it to Lan Yuesheng, "I need your help, esteemed elders!"

"What’s the matter?"

Lan Yuesheng asked in surprise.

"You’ll understand what’s happening once you take a look."

Ye Chenfeng replied.

The couple opened the Ancient Scroll and began to read, then looked utterly shocked.

"This kind of script? It’s too strange. We have some research in this area, but we’ve never seen such writing."

After quite some time, the Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan couple concluded.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s face full of disappointment, Hu Lan quickly said, "Don’t lose hope, Xiao Ye. We’ll check our resources and help you look into it."

"Alright."

Following that, Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan busied themselves with the task.

By evening, the two of them emerged, exhausted.

"Xiao Ye, we apologize. We can’t decipher these characters. But I’ve already notified a friend, who is Yahui’s parents’ teacher and specializes in ancient texts. In the Divine Land, I dare say he is the strongest."

Lan Yuesheng stated confidently.

"Then I’ll be troubling you, esteemed elders."

Ye Chenfeng expressed his gratitude.

In the evening, Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan’s apartment welcomed many guests.

Lan Yahui and her parents arrived, along with an elder and a young man.

The elder was named Wang Mingkun, and he was a friend of the Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan couple.

Without saying much, the trio took the Ancient Scroll into the room to study it.

The living room was left with Ye Chenfeng and a few others.

Lan Yahui’s parents treated Ye Chenfeng with courtesy, seeing him as the product of Lan Yuesheng and Hu Lan’s mentorship.

"Uncle, Aunt, doesn’t Grandpa need our help?"

The young man asked, he was Wang Mingkun’s grandson, Wang Yiming.

Lan Jinsong chuckled, "Yiming, though your talent in this field is unrivaled, perhaps the teacher has his considerations. Let’s wait quietly."

Mu Shaolan agreed, saying, "If the teacher needs help, he will definitely notify us."

Wang Yiming nodded, then looked at Ye Chenfeng, asking, "May I ask, where did you find that Ancient Scroll?"

Although phrased politely, his tone was condescending.

Ye Chenfeng didn’t acknowledge him, not even a glance.

Why would he care about an ant’s opinion?

Wang Yiming continued, "I heard from Yahui that this person seems to be Grandfather Lan’s new disciple, certainly has personality!"

Wang Yiming implied Ye Chenfeng’s lack of manners.

Lan Jinsong and Mu Shaolan frowned slightly; they had watched Wang Yiming grow up, and except for being a bit impulsive, he met all their expectations.

They had already considered Wang Yiming as their prospective son-in-law, seeing only virtues in him.

Compared to Wang Yiming, Ye Chenfeng seemed very poor.

He lacked basic etiquette and was quite haughty.

They continued their conversation and laughter, leaving Ye Chenfeng aside.

Undoubtedly, this suited Ye Chenfeng’s intentions perfectly.

About half an hour later, Wang Mingkun and the others emerged from the room.

Wang Yiming and the others hurriedly moved forward to ask about the results. Lan Yuesheng, with a stern face, approached Ye Chenfeng, saying, "Xiao Ye, you should give up!"

Ye Chenfeng immediately asked, "Why should I give up?"

Wang Mingkun glanced at Ye Chenfeng and said, "Because this Ancient Scroll is no different from waste paper to us!"

"Yes, we can’t recognize the characters on it at all."

Ye Chenfeng asked in confusion, "Esteemed elders, what’s really going on? I think you were able to identify them; why do you now say you can’t recognize them?"
