In the sky, still a long way from Li Tian City.
A massive Spirit Boat was speeding through the sky.
On the deck of the third level of the Spirit Boat.
Xue Wanqing’s beautiful eyes harbored a hidden fury, her delicate face seed icy, yet her heart was filled with worry.
Why? Upon hearing that Ye Chenfeng was forced onto the Life-and-Death Arena, a raging fire inexplicably surged within her heart.
At the current speed of the Spirit Boat, it would probably take about two more minutes to reach Li Tian City.
Xue Wanqing furrowed her brows slightly and said, "Uncle Zhao, Uncle Li, let’s head to Li Tian City first. Leave the Spirit Boat to others to control. The speed of the Spirit Boat has increased now, and it won’t slow down for a while."
Uncle Zhao and Uncle Li nodded in agreent, handing over control of the Spirit Boat to an Elder at the first level of the Spirit God Realm.
Then, Xue Wanqing, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Li stepped into the air, pushing their speed to the limit, surpassing the speed of the Spirit Boat by a bit.
Although Xue Wanqing knew that once the Life-and-Death Arena was activated, no one could reach the arena for half an hour due to the barrier, and even knowing she couldn’t get onto the arena now, she couldn’t remain on the Spirit Boat; she had to reach Li Tian City as fast as possible.
After Xue Wanqing, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Li left, an Elder in the Divinity Transformation Realm on the Spirit Boat imdiately took out a ssaging Jade Token and said, "Isn’t Yang Haotian in Li Tian City? We need so ti to reach Li Tian City. Let’s have Yang Haotian activate the ssaging Jade Token so we can know the situation in Li Tian City at any ti."
After the Elder finished speaking, he imdiately activated the ssaging Jade Token and transmitted his intentions.
...
Not far outside Li Tian City.
The three of them, Yang Haotian, Chen Yuanxiong, and Li Xinwen, all wore anxious expressions, including Chen Yuanxiong, who vaguely knew about Ye Chenfeng’s strength.
Yang Haotian’s face was full of anxiety as he said, "No, I can’t wait any longer. Even though Chenfeng told us not to stay in Li Tian City, Chenfeng is my brother. I, Yang Haotian, don’t abandon my brothers."
As soon as Yang Haotian finished speaking, his ssaging Jade Token suddenly flashed, and after hearing the voice from the ssaging Jade Token, he imdiately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Sect Master and the Sect Master are on their way, and all the Elders and Disciples are coming too. Let’s head back to Li Tian City now."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Three piercing sounds echoed from the sky, and three figures swiftly flew into Li Tian City. Yang Haotian could barely make out that these figures were Xue Wanqing, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Li, who were also rushing quickly into Li Tian City.
anwhile, at the Life-and-Death Arena in Li Tian City.
The air was silent, even the sound of breathing had disappeared.
After Ye Chenfeng directly crushed Jin Wenqi’s neck, everyone around the arena held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
The Jins’ ancestor, Jin Yongchang.
The family head of the Jins, Jin Zhentian.
Jin Wenqi’s father, Jin Yunyi.
The three of them looked at Jin Wenqi’s body on the arena in disbelief. Jin Wenqi was the hope of the Jins’ rise in Li Tian City. Now that this hope had perished before their eyes, it was utterly intolerable for them.
After regaining their senses, Jin Yongchang and the others erupted in intense rage, their aura rising fiercely, a dense killing intent spreading around. If not for the barrier blocking them, they would have turned Ye Chenfeng into a bloody mist long ago.
Facing the extrely angry Jin Yongchang and the others, Ye Chenfeng’s expression remained unchanged. He decisively killed Jin Wenqi for two reasons: first, he and Jin Wenqi stepped onto the Life-and-Death Arena, giving him the "right" to kill; second, the Jins’ arrogant attitude provoked Ye Chenfeng’s nature. If he hadn’t killed Jin Wenqi, would he still be Ye Chenfeng?
Of course, Ye Chenfeng also considered the possibility of the Jins acting desperately, but he was prepared to take the people of Qingyue Sect into the small world of the Chaos Ring if necessary. After all, the small world was completely dominated by Ye Chenfeng, and he wasn’t afraid of taking so many people into it and encountering any safety issues.
However, this was sothing Ye Chenfeng would only do as a last resort. He wouldn’t take others into the small world unless absolutely necessary.
Jin Yongchang, exuding a rolling killing intent, suppressed the anger in his heart, knowing it was futile to attack the barrier now. He lowered his voice to a chilling point and gritted his teeth, saying, "Little bastard, you destroyed the hope of our Jins. I will make you beg for death, unable to die or live. I will find all your relatives."
Ye Chenfeng said fearlessly, "This is the Life-and-Death Arena. Standing here, one of us must die. Everyone knows this fact. Jin Wenqi and I are in a life-and-death battle. Do you not know the rules of the Life-and-Death Arena? These rules were set by the Jins and the Qingyue Sect together."
Jin Yongchang retorted impatiently, "Even if that’s the case, it should only be you dying at Wen Qi’s hands. What right do you have to kill Wen Qi? The barrier is about to disappear. You should wait to die in agony!"
Suddenly.
Three more powerful auras approached the Life-and-Death Arena.
In just a mont.
Xue Wanqing, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Li stood beneath the arena. When they saw Ye Chenfeng unhard and Jin Wenqi dead on the stage, they couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing Xue Wanqing and the others appear, Jin Yongchang found a vent for his anger. However, knowing that the combined power of Xue Wanqing and the others surpassed his own, he could only shout, "How do you manage your sect’s disciples? Now your Qingyue Sect’s disciple has killed the most promising heir of my Jin family. Shouldn’t you give a satisfactory explanation?"
Uncle Zhao and Uncle Li stood on either side of Xue Wanqing. Xue Wanqing said coldly, "Have you Jins forgotten the rules of the Life-and-Death Arena? Even if soone dies in the arena, neither their family nor sect can intervene. These are the rules laid down by both your Jin family and our Qingyue Sect. I suggest we let this matter go, as escalating it would be unwise for everyone."
Jin Yongchang and the other two turned red-faced, knowing that Ye Chenfeng was justified. But Shopkeeper Qian spoke up, standing beside Jin Yongchang and the others. He said, "This match was judged by at the behest of Young Master Jin, and it was just a friendly spar because we couldn’t find another venue. This was never a life-and-death fight."
Shopkeeper Qian pointed at Ye Chenfeng in the arena and shouted, "This kid is too ruthless. It was just ant to be a friendly spar, but he took Young Master Jin’s life."
Now that Jin Wenqi was dead, Shopkeeper Qian had to side with the Jin family. After all, behind Jin family in Li Tian City stood the Jins of Profound Continent and Central Continent. He believed the Qingyue Sect would never fall out with the Jin family over just one disciple. To him, it seed Qingyue Sect would eventually hand over Ye Chenfeng to calm the situation.
Ye Chenfeng looked icily at Shopkeeper Qian below the arena and smiling, he said, "What a vile mouth. I will end your life with my own hands one day."
Ye Chenfeng’s smile held a chilling intent to kill. Just as he finished speaking, Yang Haotian, Chen Yuanxiong, and Li Xinwen returned below the arena, and upon seeing Ye Chenfeng unhard, they too felt at ease.
Yang Haotian did not forget to open the ssaging Jade Token. As long as his ssaging Jade Token was open, the sounds here would transmit to the ssaging Jade Tokens of the Qingyue Sect’s other elders and disciples.
With Shopkeeper Qian’s testimony, Jin Yongchang and the others regained so confidence. Jin Yongchang barked, "Did you hear? This was just a simple spar. You Qingyue Sect should be careful or risk being caught in it. In the entire Tian Xuan Realm, Qingyue Sect is not a powerful force."
Xue Wanqing maintained the sa cold tone, yet her words were as firm as ever, "He is a disciple of the Qingyue Sect, and we are determined to protect his life."
Jin Yongchang sneered, "Heh heh, Sect Master Xue, I advise you to think carefully before answering. Can you make decisions on behalf of your sect’s elders and disciples? Your actions are pushing them to a dead end. I fear they won’t agree with your decision."
But at this mont.
A giant Spirit Boat appeared in the sky above the Life-and-Death Arena.
One after another, Qingyue Sect elders and disciples quickly disembarked the Spirit Boat, eagerly landing beneath the arena, having heard the earlier conversation clearly through the ssaging Jade Tokens.
Those elders and disciples landing around the arena all stared angrily at Jin Yongchang and his group, resolutely speaking up.
"Are you Jins underestimating us? The person on the stage is our benefactor. Anyone who dares to harm even a hair on our benefactor will have their life forfeited by today."
"So what if they’re Jins? Are we supposed to be afraid? Our lives were saved by our benefactor; today I’ll return it to him."
...
Over two thousand elders and disciples crowded around the arena, firmly committing to protect Ye Chenfeng’s life. Their angry eyes were all fixed on Jin Yongchang and his n.
The entire Qingyue Sect mobilized, creating an overwhelming scene.
Hearing all the Qingyue Sect elders and disciples calling Ye Chenfeng their benefactor, it seed his authority surpassed even the Sect Master. Who exactly was Ye Chenfeng?
For a mont, those young masters from Li Tian City hid far away, while Shopkeeper Qian’s expression continually shifted.
As for Jin Yongchang and his group’s expressions, they turned extrely grave. Yet they absolutely would not let Ye Chenfeng slip away.
