Very soon, Ye Yuan arrived in front of Deng Sheng and stopped to say calmly, “Get lost. I only want to enter the city.”
Everyone drew a cold breath. A Sea Transformation Realm martial artist actually said “get lost” to the commander of an army. Furthermore, that commander actually retreated a step!
Deng Sheng’s face flushed scarlet red and felt that he lost face in front of so many subordinates.
“Boy, you’re too rampant! Just the likes of you alone wish to enter the city too? Do you really treat us like we don’t exist?” Deng Sheng was threatening in manner but inwardly shaky.
Honestly speaking, he was shocked by that scene earlier too!
One punch sending ten middle-stage Soul Seas flying. He touched his heart and felt that he could accomplish it too. But it absolutely could not be accomplished like lifting something heavy as if it was light like Ye Yuan.
Furthermore, he did not need to look and also knew that those ten officials at this time were already left with less than half.
Ye Yuan directly smashed half of the people to death with one punch!
Ye Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “You said it like you exist. If you still don’t scram, I’m going to attack!”
Deng Sheng’s expression changed. The pressure that this Sea Transformation Realm gave him was seriously too great. Even he felt it was rather preposterous.
All along, they all felt that the Endless World martial artists were all soft persimmons. But today, he finally ran into a formidable character!
Except that this formidable character seemed to be extremely tough!
This was in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses! This boy was actually thinking of slaughtering his way into the city directly!
Ye Yuan was not long-winded either. Raising his hand, it was a Flame Movement True Dragon Carnage punch.
Deng Sheng also did not think that Ye Yuan actually really made a move against him directly.
Caught off guard, he could only hastily withstand it.
Rumble!
Deng Sheng’s body was directly smashed flying out!
But Deng Sheng’s strength was clearly much stronger compared to those middle-stage Soul Seas. This punch from Ye Yuan did not cause much substantial damage to him.
Except . . . in front of so many subordinates, it was a tremendous loss of face.
However, it was not over yet. Ye Yuan’s figure flashed. With a rumble, it was another punch!
Deng Sheng was smashed flying out once again.
When the two punches smashed, Ye Yuan pounced ahead and already advanced a thousand feet away. He actually caught up to the Liu Hong four people who were killing enemies vigorously.
Rumble!
An imposing momentum that toppled mountains and overturned the seas engulfed everything and swept over, sending the surrounding bunch of Fierce Gale World martial artists directly flying out.
Deng Sheng’s aura instantly rose to the peak, his two eyes fully red. Clearly, he was already enraged to the max!
A main commander of an army like him was actually pressed against the wall and had his face smacked today. How could this not infuriate him?
“Stinking brat! You’re dead for sure!”
A horrifying aura spread out. Deng Sheng was going to be serious!
However, facing this scene, Ye Yuan was still very calm, as if the target that Deng Sheng was attacking was not him.
Right at this time, a silhouette suddenly appeared in the air in front of Deng Sheng.
“Put it away. You’re not his match!”
The arrival was precisely Shangguan Lingyun!
Seeing Shangguan Lingyun, Ye Yuan was slightly surprised too.
He knew that this Shangguan Lingyun was the number one genius on par with Zhao Chenggan, but had never fought before. To think that not seeing for a period of time, the other party was actually late-stage Soul Sea already!
“Ye Yuan, long time no see! Didn’t expect that when we meet once again, it would actually be at such an occasion!” Shangguan Lingyun greeted with a smile as if he ran into an old friend of many years.
Even though Shangguan Lingyun’s strength advanced considerably, Ye Yuan’s current strength was also incomparable with the past. He naturally would not mind.
“You didn’t expect it? But I expected it long ago,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Shangguan Lingyun was dazed, but he understood Ye Yuan’s meaning very quickly and said smilingly, “The martial artist world is where the weak are prey and the strong feasts in the first place. The Endless World is on a declining trend but enjoys such excellent resources. My Fierce Gale World is powerful but suffers the anguish of gale winds all year round. Therefore, this excellent territory should naturally be enjoyed by us!”
“Is that so? Then what’s with the massacring of cities?” Ye Yuan did not argue but countered with a question.
Towards such an excuse, Ye Yuan was too clear, and he also could not be bothered to dispute anything.
Shangguan Lingyun said, “Weaklings should have the manner of weaklings! Your Endless World sealed the realm passageway for thousands of years. How much of our time have you wasted? This is the punishment that Wind Emperor, His Majesty, gave the Endless World!”
“I underestimated Zhao Tianyin that old dog. Looks like he still has some capabilities! At least, this method of obscurantism, he used it to the acme of perfection. However . . . do you believe this sort of reason?” Ye Yuan said with a cold smile.
Hearing Ye Yuan scold Zhao Tianyin old dog, Shangguan Lingyun did not display a look of anger. Instead, he smiled and said, “Wind Emperor, His Majesty, is our paramount ruler. Whatever he says is naturally all correct! As his citizens, we only need to do things according to what he says.”
Ye Yuan’s eyes narrowed as he sized Shangguan Lingyun up curiously.
Shangguan Lingyun had a smile on his face; the words he said seemed to be as a matter of course.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “That’s not right. Logically speaking, your Shangguan Family and Zhao Tianyin should be implacable enemies. It’s fine if he’s deceiving some fools, but you all, these first-rate families, shouldn’t be to the extent of being deluded by his words, right?”
Shangguan Lingyun said smilingly, “You don’t need to rack your brains either. Wind Emperor, His Majesty, is Wind Emperor, His Majesty. His word is the imperial edict. Ye Yuan, you’re different from these Endless World’s lowly martial artists. Why not join our Fierce Gale World? With your strength, becoming the wind emperor in the future is a certainty!”
This Shangguan Lingyun was a clever man. He saw through that Ye Yuan was trying to worm facts out of him.
Seeing that there was no success, Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “Don’t give me that! Zhao Tianyin that old dog must die! The next time you see him, help me tell him to wash his dog head clean and wait for me to chop it!”
Shangguan Lingyun’s face was still smiling as he said coolly, “Honestly speaking, I don’t wish to be enemies with you. But it looks like we still can’t avoid crossing swords! How about this, let’s only use one move. If you win, I’ll let you enter the city. How’s that?”
Ye Yuan was rather surprised as he said, “I thought that you’d use your subordinates’ lives to hold down the fort. Didn’t think that you still quite cherish these subordinates!”
Shangguan Lingyun smiled and said, “If it was somebody else, they are naturally undeserving of me making a move. But you . . . are different!”
Chapter 597 - Grant You a Battle
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
That scene of Ye Yuan wasting Zhao Chenggan was still fresh in Shangguan Lingyun’s memory.
Although his strength improved greatly now, he still did not dare to look down on Ye Yuan.
Let alone that the combat strength Ye Yuan displayed earlier was plenty to make people feel shocked.
Toward Ye Yuan, Shangguan Lingyun maintained the mentality of fear fr
om start to end.
This was not just because Ye Yuan’s strength was super strong. How he escaped out of the Fierce Gale World on that day was a mystery all along as well.
Reportedly, Lord Wind Emperor personally showed up at the scene that day, but Ye Yuan was still standing here perfectly well right now. That by itself indicated a lot of problems.
Ye Yuan looked at Shangguan Lingyun and suddenly smiled and said, “Fine. Bring it!”
Even though these martial artists were clay chickens and pottery dogs to Ye Yuan; him killing in and out as he wished ten times over was not an issue, these martial artists were different from those demonic beasts in the Vast Heaven Pagoda. They would not collide into the tip of his spear without heed for their lives.
Even if Ye Yuan did what he did inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda and used the Myriad Rain Sword Blades, the effects would be greatly discounted too.
Furthermore, just the Ninth Level Soul Seas here were quite a few. Ye Yuan naturally could not possibly kill off every single one.
His goal was very simple, which was in order to enter the city.
Since Shangguan Lingyun was willing to let him pass, that was naturally for the best.
As for losing to Shangguan Lingyun . . . Ye Yuan never thought of this possibility!
Shangguan Lingyun lifted his hand slightly. Those Fierce Gale World martial artists immediately vacated a large area. The battle that originally encircled Liu Hong, the four of them, also stopped at this time.
“Actually, back at the Fierce Gale World, I’ve been looking forward to a fight with you. Today, I finally got my wish! It’s just that sadly . . . I probably can’t enjoy to my heart’s content today.” Shangguan Lingyun made a move with a faint smile.
Ye Yuan said coolly, “I’ll grant you a battle!”
Ye Yuan did not see Shangguan Lingyun take any other action, but the surrounding essence energy closed in around the latter crazily.
That imposing momentum was actually even stronger than Deng Sheng’s previously!
Gradually, a bright full moon condensed and formed in front of Shangguan Lingyun, looking rather lustrous and serene and moving.
Yet, the killing intent emitting off from that full moon made everyone’s blood run cold!
Seeing this scene, Liu Hong, the four of them, were stricken with terror too.
This young man’s age was more or less the same as theirs, but his strength was actually much more stronger!
Could it be that the strength of the Fierce Gale World’s martial artists were all formidable to such an extent?
They could not help becoming worried about Ye Yuan. Although they all knew that Ye Yuan’s strength was very strong, this young man was a major realm higher than him after all.
Furthermore, this youth’s combat strength was exceptionally formidable. Could Ye Yuan resist or not?
The four people exchanged glances and could not help becoming worried about Ye Yuan.
Facing the powerful Shangguan Lingyun, Ye Yuan was unconcerned.
When Xuanying Sword was drawn, ten thousand streaks of sword blades condensed and formed very quickly.
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Lingyun’s expression changed and he said somberly, “Condensing the form of gathered essence! Heh, a Sea Transformation Realm can actually achieve condensed form of gathered essence. You truly are a peerless genius! Full Moon Slash!”
“Myriad Rain Sword Blades!”
It was only to see that bright moon rotated with extreme speed, slicing over toward Ye Yuan. It collided against those ten thousand streaks of sword blades very quickly.
That bright full moon was like an extremely swift blade, slicing those sword blades into fragments one after another instantly!
Streaks of sword blades were annihilated like this by the bright moon. But that bright moon was also becoming faint at an incredible speed.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Finally, it was still the sword blades which depleted the Full Moon Slash first. The remaining bits and pieces streaks of sword blades flew towards Shangguan Lingyun.
Except, these remaining sword blades were nothing to be feared to Shangguan Lingyun.
Only to see him wave his hand casually. Those sword blades dissipated into nothingness.
“You won,” Shangguan Lingyun said with a faint smile, as if he had long predicted the outcome.
“Something within expectations,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
“Huhu, I originally thought that my improvement in this one year was already huge. Didn’t expect that your improvement was even greater! You’re only at the Sea Transformation Realm and can actually achieve condensing the form of gathered essence already. Truly remarkable!” Shangguan Lingyun said.
“Is that very hard? I could already do it when I was Second Level Sea Transformation,” Ye Yuan said nonchalantly.
Shangguan Lingyun shook his head and said with a smile, “To a genius like you, it’s naturally simple. But to mediocre talents like us, it’s something that’s impossible to accomplish.”
From birth until now, Shangguan Lingyun had always been crowned with the title of genius.
But in front of Ye Yuan, he simply did not have the capital to be called a genius.
However, him admitting this fact so calmly and declaring himself mediocre still made Ye Yuan rather surprised.
Ye Yuan said with a slight smile, “You’re stronger than Zhao Chenggan. No wonder you can stand here, while he can only become a good-for-nothing.”
Shangguan Lingyun suddenly looked at Ye Yuan with a smile that wasn’t a smile and said, “A good-for-nothing huh? I afraid not!”
Ye Yuan’s expression changed, and he said in a solemn voice, “What do you mean?”
“Huhu, nothing. I just want to say that Brother Ye might still have the chance to meet Zhao Chenggan. Furthermore, that day shouldn’t be too far away.”
“Even if he stands before me again, he’s still a good-for-nothing,” Ye Yuan said indifferently.
His heart was far from as calm as on the surface. He was distinguishing the true and false of Shangguan Lingyun’s words.
He already damaged Zhao Chenggan’s dantian at that time. With Zhao Tianyin’s means, it was impossible to help Zhao Chenggan restore his dantian.
What the hell was happening here?
Moreover, logically speaking, it was impossible for Shangguan Lingyun to have such rapid improvement speed. Yet, he rose a full major realm. How did he accomplish it?
Ye Yuan felt more and more that the Fierce Gale World’s invasion this time was not quite normal; exuding strangeness all over.
“Brother Ye’s talent stands above others. But better don’t look down on Zhao Chenggan. When he comes out this time, he’ll probably become different! Alright, one must be willing to lose if they bet. You guys enter the city then.”
Shangguan Lingyun moved aside and actually really opened up a path.
Ye Yuan nodded slightly and walked towards the city gates unhurriedly.
“L-Lord Shangguan was actually defeated? This . . . How is this possible?”
“Who in the world is that youth? To actually be able to defeat the ever-victorious Lord Shangguan with Sea Transformation Realm strength?”
“Yeah. The last time Lord Shangguan personally took action, he killed three late-stage Sea Transformation experts with one move! I thought that he was already invincible beneath Divine Traversing Realm. Didn’t expect that . . . he actually lost!”
“I thought that the Endless World was all a bunch of trash. Didn’t think that there was actually still such a strong youth! He’s not yet 18 years old, right? His strength is actually even stronger than Lord Shangguan’s!”
The strength that Ye Yuan displayed made the countenance of all the Fierce Gale World martial artists change.
In their view, Shangguan Lingyun’s strength was already formidable until he was unbeatable. Unless it was a Divine Traversing Realm powerhouse who came, otherwise, there was simply no possibility of lo
sing.
Along the way, Shangguan Lingyun very rarely made a move. But each time he took action, it was killing in one move no matter how powerful the opponent was.
But today, the invincible Lord Shangguan actually lost to a youth a full major realm lower than him! This was too subverting!
Under everyone’s stupefied gazes, Ye Yuan walked towards Crimsonlight City slowly.
As he made his move, the Fierce Gale World martial artists automatically moved aside, creating a path for him.
Chapter 598 - Questioning
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Above Crimsonlight City’s tall city gates, there were several silhouettes currently looking into the distance, taking everything that happened below the city gates into their sights.
“City Lord, this youth is incredible. Even the Fierce Gale World’s commander isn’t this match!”
The one speaking was called Ding Qi, City Lord Su Hu’s confidant; he was an Eighth Level Soul Sea Realm expert.
Su Hu’s expression was as per normal. But that hint of surprise in his eyes could not be wiped away.
Hearing Ding Qi appraise that youth, he nodded and said, “No idea where this youth popped out from. His strength is truly terrifyingly daunting! He’s only at the Sea Transformation Realm and can actually cross a major realm to battle!”
Ding Qi’s eyes flickered, and he said, “City Lord, could this youth be the reinforcements that the alliance sent us?”
Su Hu was stunned and said with a nod, “We’re cut off from all information with the outside world right now and don’t know the arrangements of the alliance at all. Hearing you say this, there’s really that possibility. But . . . what if it’s a ploy?”
Ding Qi was secretly startled and said, “With City Lord saying this, I’m really quite worried. Ever since that Fierce Gale World’s young commander led the great army, they have always mowed down all resistance. Many troublesome opponents were all personally disposed of by him. Furthermore, I heard that they were all killed with one move. That youth is strong, but it is truly a bit too ridiculous.”
With Ding Qi’s analysis, the suspicion in Su Hu’s heart grew even more, “With you saying this, I’m really starting to doubt! This youth is a bit too ridiculously powerful. Those ten middle-stage Soul Sea experts earlier actually could not survive one exchange with him! Although that punch of his looked to be very terrifying, it might truly have the suspicion of acting out a play!”
