THUD! THUD! THUD!
Shen Haoran and Ouyang Chen’s bodies both slamd into the ground, skidding for dozens of ters before coming to a stop.
The disciples in the audience who had fled in terror from Ouyang Chen now stood frozen, staring in disbelief at the scene below the Martial Arts Arena, their hearts filled with shock.
"Cough, cough..."
After hitting the ground, Ouyang Chen coughed up several mouthfuls of blood. He shot Chen Yu a frigid glare, then gritted his teeth and turned to flee the arena, his speed like a flash of lightning.
Seeing Ouyang Chen trying to escape, Chen Yu’s gaze turned cold. He reached out and clenched his fist in the direction Ouyang Chen was heading. In an instant, the space around Ouyang Chen began to distort, forming a spatial cage that trapped him inside! The ability to warp space—this was the power of a Spirit Emperor Powerhouse!
Ouyang Chen’s face fell as he saw the spatial barrier before him. A pitch-black ball of Energy coalesced in his hand once more, and he ruthlessly slamd it against the spatial cage. However, his attack rely caused a ripple to spread across the barrier; he couldn’t break through the cage’s restraints at all!
"You vile beast! Surrender and confess your cris!" Chen Yu roared coldly, watching Ouyang Chen continue to struggle.
"Hmph! What cri have I committed?" Ouyang Chen roared back defiantly.
"You hard your fellow disciples and practiced a wicked Cultivation Technique. Despite such cris, you still dare to argue? Today, I will expel you from the Sect!" Chen Yu’s heart twisted in pain as he looked at the unrepentant Ouyang Chen. Steeling himself, he declared coldly.
"Haha, a wicked technique? Hmph! All I know is that it gave power! In this world, power is supre. There’s no such thing as good or evil! Stop acting all sanctimonious in front of . I’ve wanted to leave this Sect for a long ti!" Ouyang Chen roared with a loud laugh.
"You..." Rage surged in Chen Yu’s heart as he watched the seemingly crazed Ouyang Chen. His expression turned icy, and a burst of killing intent erupted from him!
"If that’s the case, then don’t bla for disregarding the bond between master and disciple! Today, I will cleanse the Five Elents Sect of your filth!" With that, Chen Yu clenched his fist fiercely in Ouyang Chen’s direction. The spatial barrier began to shrink rapidly, pressing in on him!
"Damn it!" Ouyang Chen’s expression changed drastically as he felt the crushing pressure from all sides. He began to struggle, but under the might of a Spirit Emperor Powerhouse like Chen Yu, his efforts were completely futile!
As the spatial barrier closed in, a ruthless look flashed in Ouyang Chen’s eyes. He shot Chen Yu one last cold glance, and then his body began to swell. It looked as though he was about to self-destruct!
BOOM!
The next mont, a deafening explosion ripped through the air. Ouyang Chen’s body burst apart, and the tyrannical Spiritual Power storm instantly shattered Chen Yu’s spatial barrier, spreading out like a magnificent firework.
Watching the Spiritual Power storm slowly dissipate, Chen Yu couldn’t help but feel a wave of sorrow. Ouyang Chen was the child he had raised since he was small. Chen Yu had always treated him like his own son, yet now, he had personally forced him to his death. How could he not feel heartbroken?
But then, the thought of Ouyang Chen’s cris ignited a surge of anger in his heart. He had hard his fellow disciples and cultivated such a wicked Cultivation Technique. If he hadn’t put Ouyang Chen to death, he would have been unable to answer to the entire Sect!
anwhile, the crowd in the stands stared blankly at the dissipating Spiritual Power storm in the sky. They never expected today’s sect competition to turn out like this. A newcor, a dark horse, had appeared out of nowhere and forcibly dragged Ouyang Chen, the top ranker on the Dragon and Tiger List, from his throne! Ouyang Chen, once considered a powerhouse in everyone’s eyes, had resorted to such a wicked Secret Technique and was ultimately forced to self-destruct. It had all happened so suddenly that they found it hard to accept.
Then, the crowd’s gaze shifted to Shen Haoran, who was lying motionless on the ground, completely devoid of breath. A sense of pity rose in their hearts. A newly risen genius had been snuffed out in his pri. Truly, the heavens are jealous of great talent.
At this mont, Shui Ruolan and the other mbers of the Yao Sect were gathered around Shen Haoran, their faces etched with grief as they looked at his blood-soaked body. Shui Ruolan desperately poured her Spiritual Power into him as if it were free, but in the next instant, it just leaked out from his shattered form.
"Damn it, Shen Haoran, you can’t die! The Yao Sect still needs you! You said you would lead us to the pinnacle of the continent! You said you would make the light of our Yao Sect shine upon the entire world! How can you go back on your word?!" Shui Ruolan shouted in anguish as she continued to desperately channel her Spiritual Power. Tears stread down her cheeks, and her desolate voice filled the hearts of all who heard it with sorrow.
"Boss, wake up! Just wake up, and I’ll promise you anything! I’ll never steal your Elixirs again, I swear! I’ll follow you to the death, just wake up!" Zi Mo roared at the lifeless Shen Haoran, his eyes bloodshot.
But no matter how Shui Ruolan and Zi Mo called out to him, Shen Haoran showed no reaction. His body was only growing colder.
Seeing the breathless Shen Haoran, Chen Yu walked over and sighed softly. "My condolences. Shen Haoran... he’s already dead."
"No! Our boss won’t die!" Hearing Chen Yu’s words, the mbers of the Yao Sect glared at him with bloodshot eyes filled with rage. At this mont, they wouldn’t allow anyone to speak ill of Shen Haoran—not even their most respected Sect Leader!
Chen Yu was startled to see the emotionally charged mbers of the Yao Sect. ’What on earth did Shen Haoran do for these people,’ he wondered, ’to make them defend him so willingly?’
However, before Chen Yu’s shock could fade, he witnessed an even more unbelievable sight!
Before them, Shen Haoran remained motionless despite their repeated calls. Seeing this, Shui Ruolan ford a Seal Technique. A pale blue Spirit Crystal erged from her mouth and slowly floated above Shen Haoran’s body!
Understanding Shui Ruolan’s intentions, Zi Mo also acted. An earthy-yellow Spirit Crystal flew out from his body and ca to rest beside the pale blue one.
From behind them, the other Yao Sect mbers who were at the Spirit General realm or above followed suit. One by one, their Spirit Crystals flew out and surrounded Shen Haoran. The faint, constant glow of the crystals was a jarring sight to Chen Yu and the other disciples in the audience!
A Spirit Crystal was a Martial Artist’s Power of Origin, the very foundation of their Cultivation. If it was damaged, they could suffer a setback in strength at best, or have their Cultivation completely destroyed at worst! The mbers of the Yao Sect were actually trying to use their own Power of Origin to save Shen Haoran’s life!
At that mont, everyone couldn’t help but wonder about Shen Haoran. Just what kind of person was he to inspire so many Martial Artists to risk the destruction of their own Cultivation and use their Power of Origin to save his life? How imnse must his charisma be!
"Have you all gone mad? If you keep this up, your Cultivation will be crippled!" Chen Yu roared. These people were the pillars of the Five Elents Sect; he couldn’t let anything happen to them!
However, none of the Yao Sect mbers paid him any mind, focusing only on the task at hand.
Seeing this, Chen Yu was about to say more, but Elder Huo stopped him. "Sect Leader, they have their own convictions. Let them be."
Seeing that even Elder Huo was protecting Shen Haoran, Chen Yu could only sigh softly and stand aside to watch the mbers of the Yao Sect.
