Ye Fan had a bad premonition. He suddenly turned around and said respectfully, "My Lord!"
"What are you doing?" Jingnan Divine General ca to his side, his gaze fixed on him.
"Reporting to the leader," Ye Fan said calmly. "I’m just stepping outside for so fresh air. The Evil Qi in here is too thick. Besides, we’re short-handed with the slaves inside. I’ll go to the prison and bring another batch to help."
Jingnan Divine General didn’t respond to the excuse. Instead, he said, "An expert at the Third Level of the Nirvana Realm holds a significant position here, yet I’ve never seen you before."
"My Lord is incredibly busy. How could you possibly rember a nobody like ?" Ye Fan replied, remaining calm. He knew that panicking now would surely lead to disaster.
Jingnan Divine General suddenly sneered. "Do you really take for an idiot? Boy, if I weren’t so ticulous, I might have actually been fooled by you. Die!" With that, he shot a palm strike at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was shocked and quickly dodged, putting about ten ters between himself and Jingnan Divine General as he stared at him grimly. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to escape, but Jingnan Divine General’s n had already surrounded him, making escape a near-impossible task.
Jingnan Divine General said coldly, "I knew you were suspicious!"
"Tell , what is your purpose for coming to the mine? If you confess honestly, I’ll leave your corpse intact!"
"I truly have no purpose!" Ye Fan insisted.
"Is that so? Attack!" Jingnan Divine General bellowed.
His subordinates sward forward, rushing Ye Fan. He quickly parried their attacks. His opponents’ cultivation levels were not high, not even the squad leaders’. He fought as he retreated.
Jingnan Divine General watched with a mocking expression. In his eyes, Ye Fan was a re ant, unworthy of him acting personally.
"Pure Yang Divine Fist!" Ye Fan roared. A tempest of energy erupted as he unleashed the attack, accompanied by the roar of a dragon. The squad leaders were instantly sent flying. For a brief mont, he stood his ground, an air of contempt about him, before quickly turning to flee.
"Trying to escape? Not that easy!" Jingnan Divine General shouted at the fleeing Ye Fan.
He threw a punch. Ye Fan, already a hundred ters away, felt a powerful force hurtling toward him from behind. He dodged quickly, but the evasive maneuver slowed him down.
In an instant, Jingnan Divine General caught up and roared, "Ti to die!"
Ye Fan’s premonition flared. Jingnan Divine General was incredibly strong; he was a Divine General, after all. This was Ye Fan’s first ti witnessing a powerhouse of the Divine General Level in action. The force of the attack bore down on him, pinning Ye Fan to the spot. He was completely restrained by Jingnan Divine General’s power and couldn’t move a muscle.
Dammit! A look of despair crossed Ye Fan’s face. He’d survived so many great storms only to fall into the hands of Jingnan Divine General.
However, at that mont, a tiger’s roar echoed through the area. Jingnan Divine General was stunned as a colossal tiger, larger than a mountain, materialized in its true form and slamd into his attack, blocking it completely.
Jingnan Divine General was knocked back. This was another powerhouse at the Divine General Level, and from the looks of it, this tiger’s combat strength surpassed his own. Otherwise, the Divine General wouldn’t be wearing such a wary expression.
"An expert from the Demon Clan!" Jingnan Divine General said coldly.
The Demon Clan had declined. They remained aloof from worldly affairs and never got involved in matters between the two Divine Races. He never expected that a Demon General-level expert from the Demon Clan would personally intervene.
The tiger stood before Ye Fan, shielding him. In truth, Ye Fan was just as shocked. He had never imagined the Demon Clan would co to his rescue. Moreover, this big guy seed even more powerful than Jingnan Divine General, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Jingnan Divine General spoke, his voice icy. "Nine Evil Demon General, why are you interfering in my affairs? Do you intend to violate the covenant between the Demon and Divine Races?"
He was furious but didn’t act. At the sa level, the Divine Race was no match for the Demon Clan, and he was the only expert present. To take down the Nine Evil Demon General, he would need at least three powerhouses of his own caliber working together. Even two wouldn’t be enough.
The Nine Evil Demon General said dismissively, "To hell with the covenant. That’s just my Demon Clan keeping a low profile. Otherwise, what do you think your Divine Race amounts to?"
"You!" Jingnan Divine General growled. "I advise you to stay out of this. If the Hu Ben Main God holds you accountable, you won’t be able to bear the consequences!"
"Still trying to threaten ? This was arranged by the Seven-Colored Demon Empress! Who the hell is the Hu Ben Main God?!"
The curse actually made Ye Fan chuckle. He hadn’t expected this big oaf to be so amusing, a truly frank character.
Jingnan Divine General then asked, "What value does this boy have for the Seven-Colored Demon Empress to personally intervene and protect him?"
In truth, Jingnan Divine General felt completely helpless. The Seven-Colored Demon Empress was one of the top three experts in the entire Divine Domain, soone even the Hu Ben Main God was reluctant to provoke. Control of this situation had likely already slipped from his grasp.
Without a second thought, the Nine Evil Demon General retorted, "He is the prey of our Empress! I suggest you back off, because only Her Majesty has the right to tear him limb from limb and skin him alive!"
Ye Fan, who had been feeling relieved, was nearly scared to death. He had just escaped the wolf’s den only to fall into the tiger’s maw.
Ye Fan was terrified. Now even the Seven-Colored Demon Empress was after him. He realized he was in deep trouble this ti and began looking for a chance to escape.
"Now get lost and stop blocking my way!" the Nine Evil Demon General ordered.
At his shout, the dozen or so squad leaders in front of him instantly exploded into mist. Not just anyone could withstand the fury of a Divine General, especially not a powerhouse like the Nine Evil Demon General, whose physical body had been tempered to a monstrous degree.
"Nine Evil Demon General, this is the territory of the Hu Ben Main God! I suggest you don’t act so presumptuously!" Jingnan Divine General admonished. It was audacious enough for the Nine Evil Demon General to show up on his territory to protect soone, but to brazenly kill his n was a blatant show of disrespect.
Every Martial Artist had a temper, and a high and mighty expert like Jingnan Divine General’s was even greater. He yelled at the Nine Evil Demon General, "Don’t push your luck! This is my territory!"
"This is the Outer Domain! It belongs to no one! I enjoy killing people, so what of it?!" the Nine Evil Demon General spat arrogantly. "If you’ve got a problem, co and fight !"
Ye Fan still hadn’t found a chance to escape, but now one had finally appeared. That’s it, go fight him! Don’t be a coward! he silently urged Jingnan Divine General.
Sure enough, enraged by such an insult, Jingnan Divine General bellowed, "You’re seeking death!"
He charged toward the Nine Evil Demon General.
Ye Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The two of them were finally fighting.
