Above the Ye family villa in Lin City, Tiannan, countless people from Shang Santian rushed out. When they looked up, their expressions changed.
A large group of people stood in the sky above them. A torrential baleful aura surged out from their bodies. It was as if it was real, causing the entire region to freeze.
When the peak-stage martial venerable who was responsible for guarding this place flew out and looked at the group of people in the sky, his eyes were filled with extreme shock. He could feel the killing intent, the extreme killing intent.
What shocked him the most was not the 20 or 30 people in the air, but the young man in black at the front of the group.
It was that young man who scared him out of his wits.
“M-Mad Southern Ye?!”
The peak-stage martial venerable took a deep breath in and glared at Ye Chen who was in the sky, “Aren’t you dead?!”
He could not believe his eyes!
Ye Chen paid no attention to his shock. Instead, he unleashed his Divine Consciousness and sensed the weak aura of Yin Shi and the rest.
The killing intent in his eyes multiplied, and he suddenly waved his hand. An extremely indifferent voice sounded, “Attack, don’t let a single one of them off!”
The Patriarch of Hell stretched his back and said in an uninterested manner, “Do you want them dead or alive?”
“Alive!”
The Patriarch of Hell immediately laughed when he heard that. His body moved and he disappeared from where he was. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the peak-stage martial venerable.
“Kill!”
At the same time, Han Qinhu, who had already broken through to the intermediate venerable stage, shouted and led everyone to the ground. Like a ferocious beast in human form, he charged into the Shang Santian’s camp.
A battle broke out.
The Patriarch of Hell waved his sleeve and immediately rushed towards the peak-stage martial venerable, “I’ve never killed a peak-stage martial venerable since breaking through. Today, I’ll practise with you!”
“Impudent!”
The peak-stage martial venerable could not help but fly into a rage when he saw that. He hurriedly circulated his True Energy and retreated. He also threw a punch at the Patriarch of Hell.
Bang!
The peak-stage martial venerable immediately spat a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. His internal organs were all shattered in that instant. He looked at the Patriarch of Hell in shock.
Pseudo emperor!
Only a pseudo emperor could easily defeat a peak-stage martial venerable like him. However, when did Mad Southern Ye had a pseudo emperor around him?
“You’re too weak!”
The Patriarch of Hell let out a strange grin and charged forward again. He grabbed the man and said, “I’m not even interested in killing you!”
At that moment, the peak-stage martial venerable suddenly roared, “Senior Duan, what are you waiting for?!”
The entire Ye family villa shook.
A figure shot into the sky like an arrow leaving the bow. Subsequently, a gigantic palm print descended from the sky and charged at Ye Chen.
“A pseudo emperor?”
The Patriarch of Hell’s eyes flashed with excitement.
Just when he was about to make a move, he realized that the palm print was heading for Ye Chen. He could not help but reveal a strange expression, “So, you think Fellow Ye is weaker than the patriarch!”
After sensing the abnormality in his expression, a trace of uneasiness suddenly flashed across the peak-stage martial venerable’s heart.
He thought that Ye Chen was at most a peak-stage martial venerable even though he was still alive. The only reason why he dared to come back was because he had the Patriarch of Hell, a pseudo emperor, with him that he could rely on.
However, the Patriarch of Hell’s strange grin made his expression change. The uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.
In reality, the pseudo emperor of the Duan family in the sky had the same thought as him. Therefore, he had held back for so long because he wanted to capture Ye Chen.
“You’ve overestimated yourself!”
Ye Chen snorted coldly as he faced the gigantic palm print. Subsequently, he extended his hand and turned it into a giant hand that could hold up the sky. He immediately broke the opponent’s attack.
“Oh, no!”
The pseudo emperor’s expression changed drastically when he saw that. At that moment, he finally realized that Ye Chen was not as simple as he thought.
As he thought to this point, he wanted to break open a spatial rift and run away by instinct. However, Ye Chen’s giant hand had already grabbed him.
As an unstoppable force came, Ye Chen lifted him onto the ground.
Ye Chen held his throat lightly as a sinister grin appeared at the corner of his lips, “Old thing, is my Ye family villa safe?”
In the eyes of the pseudo emperor of the Duan family, his grin was as frightening as a demon.
At that moment, a trace of fear finally appeared on the pseudo emperor’s face, “H-How did you become so powerful?”
He was a pseudo emperor!
With such strength, he would be a top powerhouse even among the ten ancient clans, much less the mortal world of China. No one could rival him without an Emperor Stage cultivator.
However, he was easily captured by Ye Chen. How could he not be shocked?
“It’s all thanks to your Shang Santian!”
Ye Chen’s tone was cold. He flicked his finger and pierced through his dantian and sea of vital energy instantly. The pseudo emperor turned into a cripple following a deflating sound.
The pseudo emperor from the Duan family had a ferocious look on his face. He said with extreme resentment, “Little b*stard, S-Shang Santian will not let you off!”
He had sacrificed too much to cultivate to the Pseudo Emperor Stage. However, Ye Chen had crippled him now, which almost made him faint.
As the pseudo emperor of the Duan family was crippled, the rest of the people from Shang Santian finally reacted. They immediately screamed, “Run!”
“Patriarch, cripple them all. We can’t let a single one of them escape!” Ye Chen ordered and dashed into the Ye family villa.
Yin Shi, who was suspended in the air, saw the familiar face and could not help but shout with his last breath, “M-Master, this old servant knew that you would not die so easily!”
“Don’t speak!”
Ye Chen took a step forward and lifted the shackles on his hands with a wave of his hand. Subsequently, he pressed his palm on his chest and channeled his True Energy into his body frantically to heal him.
However, when his gaze landed on the bodies that had already turned cold, he could not help but twitch.
They were all members of the Star Pavilion and some of them were Lin Tai’s subordinates back then. He never expected them to end up like this!
Not long later, the Patriarch of Hell led everyone in and laughed, “Fellow Ye, these people have been crippled by the patriarch. What should we do next?”
Behind him, Han Qinhu and the rest were covered in blood.
Even though there were also people who were injured because of this, the eyes of most of them flickered with excitement. They used their strength to prove that Shang Santian was not as powerful as they had imagined.
“Collect the bodies of those who died because of me and bury them properly. At the same time, announce to the world that I, Ye Chen, am back!”
Ye Chen swept his gaze over the members of the Star Pavilion who died tragically. Extreme killing intent emerged from the depths of his pitch-black eyes, “I’m declaring war on Shang Santian. I, Ye Chen, have returned… to collect the debt!”
