"Heh heh, so what? Aren't they just pigs that Your Excellency is rearing? Butchering once they get fat? With this girlie here, will we still fear that Yan Jun not submitting obediently?" said a martial artist.
"Huhu, that's true! All thanks to these fat pigs that I am able to have my present strength! Now, this seat is only a step away from Phaseless Realm!" said the middle-aged man in light armor said.
"Congratulations, milord! Congratulations, milord! Milord is an expert on the Earth Carnage Proclamation. Once you enter the Phaseless Realm, your future prospects will be boundless!"
"At that time, naturally you won't go without benefits!"
When the two people heard this, they were both beside themselves with joy. That middle-aged man in light armor was actually an expert on the Earth Carnage Proclamation!
One of the underlings bowed his body and asked, "Milord, how to dispose of this girlie?"
The middle-aged man in light armor said with a cruel smile, "The last time, Pulse Severing Divine Palm didn't kill her. I don't believe that it can't kill her this time too! This time, I'm going to sever all of her meridians. See how she still survives!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Milord, this subordinate has an important matter to report!"
Right then, vigorously knocking sounds suddenly sounded out outside the door.
The middle-aged man in light armor furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Come in!"
A subordinate pushed the door and entered. Coming in front of the middle-aged man in light armor all in a fl.u.s.ter, he said, "Milord, things are bad. Somebody … somebody wants to challenge you!"
The eyebrows of the middle-aged man in light armor raised up, and he laughed loudly as he said, "Challenge me? Hahaha! It's really been so many years since anyone dared to seek death like this! Doesn't he know that this Cloud Transient City's City Lord is an expert ranked 463 on the Earth Carnage Proclamation?"
"This … That person challenging is merely a Second Level Heaven Enlightenment young man," said the subordinate after he hesitated for a moment.
"What? A Second Level Heaven Enlightenment dares to challenge our Lord Xie Ying? Is this someone who's complaining that his lifespan is too long and is tired of living?"
"Haha! What a joke! Even though Cloud Transient City is a small city, Lord Xie Ying's reputation is known far and wide! This punk is definitely a moron! As long as one slightly inquires about it a little, they wouldn't do this sort of foolish thing either!"
The two subordinates seemed to have heard a very hilarious joke, both laughing their heads off.
Including Xie Ying himself, gave a slight smile too and said to the three subordinates, "You guys watch the person carefully. I'll go and chop off that punk's dog-head first!"
"Yes, Your Excellency!" the three people voiced their assent.
The Chaotic Devil Sea's rule was that anyone could challenge the city lord. As long as one had the strength to kill the city lord, they could take his place.
Moreover, as long as someone challenged, the city lord must accept the challenge, all the way until one party was killed!
Logically speaking, under this sort of rule, the city lord being replaced should be frequent occurrences.
But in reality, Cloud Transient City's City Lord Xie Ying had already been in this position for over a decade.
When he assumed the position, there were naturally quite a few people who were unconvinced and issued challenges to him. But in the end, all of them were killed by him without any exception.
Gradually, people who dared to challenge him became lesser and lesser.
And along with the passing of time, Xie Ying's strength became increasingly stronger. All the way until later, Xie Ying became an Earth Carnage Proclamation expert.
Ever since then, no one dared to challenge him anymore.
Today was indeed out of the blue; it was the first time in several years!
After Xie Ying left, the three underlings all did not detect a small lotus flower growing out from the corner of a wall.
...
Ye Yuan sat in front of the City Lord Manor quietly, closing his eyes to meditate, quietly waiting for Xie Ying's arrival.
The one challenging Xie Ying was none other than precisely Ye Yuan.
Out of Lin Shuang's expectations, Ye Yuan did not go and rescue Ling-er right away. Instead, he came straight to the City Lord Manor and issued a challenge to Xie Ying in front of everyone.
"What on earth is Master Ye selling in his gourd? He's merely an alchemist. Why … Why did he go and challenge City Lord Xie?"
"City Lord Xie is an Earth Carnage Proclamation expert. Challenging with his strength, isn't that seeking death?"
"Didn't he say he was helping Owner Yan find his daughter previously? How did he search until he came here to challenge?"
The Green Sea Mercenary Group and Yan Jun husband and wife were all here spectating. The Green Sea Mercenary Group's members were all gesticulating, clearly very perplexed by Ye Yuan's actions.
Lin Shuang grabbed her husband's hand tightly and said with an anxious look on her face, "Husband, Master Ye must have guessed something and wants to give vent on Ling-er's behalf. But … But …"
Yan Jun's expression was very ugly. Although he had never met with Xie Ying before, to be able to abduct Yan Ling away in Cloud Transient City noiselessly, who else could there be other than Xie Ying?
City Lord Xie Ying was clearly the greatest suspect.
But even if he knew, he was powerless to do anything as well. Earth Carnage Proclamation's No. 463 expert was totally not what he could deal with, let alone that the City Lord Manor still had many experts.
Yan Jun initially already resigned himself to his fate and brought out all of his savings over these past few years for Xie Ying.
What he did not expect was that Ye Yuan actually ran out and challenged City Lord Xie Ying on his own!
Finally, Yan Jun could not endure it anymore and came in front of Ye Yuan to urge, "Master Ye, I know that you have good intentions. But Xie Ying is an Earth Carnage Proclamation's veteran expert. His strength is unfathomable. Challenging the city lord, one has to determine who lives and who dies! You doing this for Ling-er, us husband and wife will have a guilty conscious for the rest of our lives!"
Chapter 868 - Absolute Kill Token!
"Master Ye, us husband and wife are already endlessly grateful to you for treating Ling-er. But this Xie Ying, he really cannot be provoked! Quickly go now, leave Cloud Transient City, the further you go, the better!" Lin Shuang urged as well.
But her voice had yet to fade when a middle-aged man wearing light armor who was flying in air landed in front of Ye Yuan.
"Hahaha, without my agreement, Xie Ying's, even if you guys want to leave, you can't go either! Since you put forth the challenge, you got to have an awareness of death! Go? Where can you guys go to?" Xie Ying said arrogantly.
When Yan Jun saw Xie Ying, his eyes wanted to spew fire. He could not endure it anymore and said, "Xie Ying! Was it you who abducted Ling-er away?"
Yan Jun originally thought that Xie Ying would deny it. He did not expect that Xie Ying would actually laugh out loud and say, "So what if yes? Are the earth essence crystals I want prepared? Don't blame me for not warning you. Even though there's a fool who's challenging this seat, once the time is up, I'll send your daughter on her way all the same. Don't think that this punk can buy time."
Xie Ying admitting it openly made Yan Jun even more enraged. If not for being apprehensive that the other party's strength was too formidable, he would really want to go up and risk his life at this instant.
"You! You and I have no grudges, why do you want to target me time and again!" Yan Jun denounced indignantly.
Xie Ying looked at Yan Jun pitifully and said in disdain, "Why? Hahaha, what a joke! Don't you know what kind of place you're in right now? This place is the Chaotic Devil Sea! In this Cloud Transient City, I'm the king! Everything of yours is all mine! What does some me
re earth essence crystals count as? I'm not targeting you, but targeting you all, these travel-trade merchants! You guys make use of the Chaotic Devil Sea's resources to make staggering profits. Since that's the case, I let you all amass, wait until you're fat, then slaughter and eat. What's wrong with it?"
This kind of excuse might be very preposterous in the outside world.
But in this Cloud Transient City, it was not very hard to understand.
This point, it could be seen from the expressions of the people surrounding and watching.
They did not cast over very pitying looks towards Yan Jun. More of it was indifference and contempt.
In here, one could only end up as lambs that other people talked about without strength!
In here, there had never been a reason to talk about!
In this Cloud Transient City, Xie Ying's strength was the most powerful, so whatever he did was right!
The reason why he employed kidnapping actions was just in order to not stir the grass and frighten away the snake, to let these merchants have some more time to acc.u.mulate.
Yan Jun was angered until he trembled all over, but his eyes revealed a look of despair.
He originally thought that earth essence crystals could settle everything. However, he was wrong!
For so many years, he was merely a lamb that others let loose to rear. It was just that he, this lamb, was fatter; and he was getting slaughtered by Xie Ying for the second time!
"You … Whatever you have, come at me! Why do you want to deal with a little girl without a weapon in her hand! Back then, Ling-er was still a baby in swaddling clothes!" Lin Shuang trembled as she said.
Xie Ying pursed his mouth and said scornfully, "Baby? In the Chaotic Devil Sea, not having strength is the original sin! There is no pity here, only strength! You all have stayed in the Chaotic Devil Sea for so many years and actually can't even see through this point? Fools!"
"You! You devil! Elder Brother Liu, I give all of my assets to you! I request you to help kill this fiend for me!" Yan Jun could no longer put up with it anymore and wanted to use all of his wealth to gamble for Xie Ying's life.
Yan Jun himself was a Heaven Enlightenment Realm too. But in front of Xie Ying, he was too weak!
The two of them, husband and wife, attacking together could not possibly be Xie Ying's match either. They could only use money to do things.
Liu Yusheng's expression was very ugly. He did not think that Ling-er's disappearance would actually involve Xie Ying.
Although he scared away Tan Si using the Spirit Profound Unity Formation previously, facing the Xie Ying whose strength was a level higher, Liu Yusheng hesitated.
"Owner Yan, not that I, Liu Yusheng, cravenly cling to life instead of braving death! It's just that … I'm really not his match! Your money, if I take this job, I have the life to earn, but I don't have the life to spend!" Liu Yushen said helplessly.
The moment these words were uttered, Yan Jun and Lin Shuang, all of the pair's strength seemed to be drained, unwittingly falling back two steps.
The Green Sea Mercenary Group was his greatest reliance. But even Liu Yusheng was not willing to make a move. What hope did he still have?
Xie Ying was even more incomparably proud of himself when he saw the situation and said with a loud laugh, "I already said, this Cloud Transient City is my world, Xie Ying's! What can a tiny little mercenary group do to me? Humph! If you're sensible, get the money ready and send it to the location. Perhaps, you can still see that cute daughter of yours! However, wait until I dispose of this trash first before talking! How many years has it been? How many years has it been since anyone has dared to challenge this seat?!"
Xie Ying looked at Ye Yuan with a glimmering gaze, looking in high spirits.
Ever since he ascended to the Earth Carnage Proclamation, no one challenged him. He did not expect that today, there was actually someone who delivered himself to the gate to let him practice.
Although his strength was a bit weak, killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, it was sufficient.
Ye Yuan did not speak at the side all along. It was in order to let Yan Jun husband and wife know the Chaotic Devil Sea's cruelty.
This kind of money was really not easy to earn!
Without adequate strength, it would only be like drawing water with a sieve in the end.
Ye Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and opened his mouth to say, "The nonsense has been said entirely. I can send you on your way already. Are you handing over the Absolute Kill Token on your own, or do you want me to come to take it myself?"
Xie Ying was stunned and looked at Ye Yuan like he was staring at a fool as he said, "Just the likes of you want my Absolute Kill Token too? Go back and train for another hundred years!"
This Absolute Kill Token was precisely the second objective of Ye Yuan coming to Cloud Transient City!
Because only by possessing this Absolute Kill Token could one enter the Slaughter Steppes. Otherwise, entering inside rashly, one would be obliterated!
Each city lord had an Absolute Kill Token in possession. To obtain the Absolute Kill Token to enter the Slaughter Steppes, it could only be accomplished by killing a city lord!
If the inc.u.mbent city lord entered the Slaughter Steppes, the Slaughter Steppes would send over another token for the next city lord.
Of course, this process would be another gory struggle.
Yan Jun duo were battered out of their senses. Suddenly hearing Ye Yuan's words, they could not help being startled. They hurriedly went up to grab hold of Ye Yuan and said, "Master Ye, you're our family's benefactor, we can't watch you cast away your life in vain! Your kindness, Shuang-er and I will bear it in mind. It's just that … we can only repay it in the next life!"
Ye Yuan smiled broadly when he heard that and said, "Owner Yan is worrying too much. I came to this Cloud Transient City for the sake of the Absolute Kill Token in the first place. It's just that I didn't expect that Ling-er would run into this kind of incident. Since this matter was done by Xie Ying, then it just nice saves me a lot of trouble, combining two things into one. Mmm … The pain that Ling-er suffered these past few years, let him pay it back in blood!"
Yan Jun was stunned and muttered, "But … But … he's an Earth Carnage Proclamation expert! You're just an alchemist! It's impossible to beat him!"
Ye Yuan lightly patted on Yan Jun's shoulder twice and said, "I believe that this time, you should have seen clearly what kind of place the Chaotic Devil Sea is. After I rescue Ling-er, your family of three should leave this place and never come here again. This place is not a place that you guys should come!"
Chapter 869 - Fusion
"Shameless boasting fool! Going to lose your life right away already and you still wish to go rescue people," Xie Ying chortled and said.
Ye Yuan's calm attitude made Xie Ying very displeased. Putting on an act got to have a limit too, right?
A Second Level Heaven Enlightenment challenging an Earth Carnage Proclamation expert, this kind of thing had never happened before in the Chaotic Devil Sea.
To Earth Carnage Proclamation experts, it had always been them crossing realms to challenge others. When had they been challenged by others before?
Yan Jun still wanted to say something, but he was lightly pushed by Ye Yuan's essence energy. Both he and Lin Shuang were pushed aside immediately.
Yan Jun could not help being dumbfounded. He was a Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artist too. Being pushed by Ye Yuan here, he actually did not have the slightest strength to retaliate!
Ye Yuan stood with his hands behind his back as he said indifferently, "Was your Earth Carnage Proclamation ranking boasted out with your mouth? So much crap!"
Xie Ying's expression turned cold, and he said, "Stinking brat, you'll die very horribly!"
A violent killing intent erupted out, almost materializing. The surrounding audience could not withstand this killing intent at all and hurriedly retreated and spread out.
 
; "Already have not seen Xie Ying take action for many years! His strength is even greater than in the past!"
"His killing intent has condensed to become tangible. Looks like his comprehension in the Slaughter Supreme True Intent has already improved further!"
"No wonder his Earth Carnage Proclamation rank rose non-stop these few years, Looks like he's already not far from Phaseless Realm! This brat challenging Xie Ying is simply courting death!"
Xie Ying's position was fought out using bona fide battle results. Although he had not taken action for many years, his strength was clearly rising steadily.
By this time, when Xie Ying exhibited his strength in front of everyone once again, no one would feel optimistic about Ye Yuan at all.
The Slaughter True Intent was a concept universally comprehended by the Chaotic Devil Sea's martial artists.
The Slaughter Concept was also a top-notch supreme true intent. When cultivated to the extreme, it was also not at all inferior to the Scorching Concept.
After cultivating to an exceedingly high realm, one could confuse the opponent's mental state just by relying on the concept released by the martial artist, and then make the first strike from there.
Ye Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, standing in the center of the storm very comfortably, looking very calm.
The Slaughter True Intent was very strong. But just based on Xie Ying's comprehension, it was unable to shake Ye Yuan the slightest bit.
Seeing this scene, Xie Ying's expression changed slightly too. Looks like this brat was also not without capabilities at all to dare raise a hue.
Chiii!
Xie Ying's figure suddenly burst forth. The sword in his hand actually disappeared bizarrely!
"Shadowless Sword! Xie Ying's Shadowless Sword finally appeared once again! He draws his sword without any traces. It is completely hard to fathom! I can't believe that it's the killing move he used the moment he attacks!"
The moment Xie Ying moved, someone immediately cried out in shock.
Ye Yuan slowly closed his eyes, his entire person entered into Heart Like Monolith Heart Realm, knowing all of the surroundings like the palm of his own hand.
