"You want our Village Chief to come out and die?"

The guards looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.

Such a young brat, daring to barge into Mad Saber Stronghold, even intending to kill their Village Chief?

Boom!

After a brief moment of shock, Mad Saber Stronghold erupted into chaos.

"The enemy has invaded, shoot him down!"

Once regaining their senses, the guards started shouting and cursing. Then, teams of bandits from Mad Saber Stronghold quickly climbed up to the watchtowers, each armed with longbows, pulling out sharp arrows, and launched a barrage from all directions towards Ye Qingchen.

Whoosh!

In almost an instant.

The sky was filled with arrows, covering the sun, raining down from all sides with the intent to obliterate Ye Qingchen in that very moment.

"You Mad Saber Stronghold bandits deserve to die as well!"

The tragic images of villagers from before flashed through Ye Qingchen's mind, instantly fueling his murderous intent. Standing in mid-air, he raised his hand with a wave.

Instantly.

The rain of arrows that had been barreling towards him halted, suspended in mid-air.

Then, with another wave of his hand, all the sharp arrows reversed course, reflecting back with even greater speed and ferocity than before.

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"

These arrows pinned the guards in place, some with such force that they shattered the towering watchtowers, which collapsed with a deafening roar.

In an instant.

Cries of pain, howls, and screams echoed throughout.

Ye Qingchen, charging into Mad Saber Stronghold alone, unleashed a storm of bloodshed as soon as he entered!

"This is bad!"

"This kid is too strong!"

"Quickly, report to the Village Chief! A formidable enemy has intruded!"

Seeing the watchtowers collapse, the countless injured and dead guards, and the chaotic stronghold gate, the bandits quickly realized that this young man was not a mere ordinary figure.

Someone even struck the bronze bell.

"Dong!" "Dong!" "Dong!"

The heavy bell toll echoed instantly above Thousand Cloud Mountain, spreading throughout Mad Saber Stronghold in moments.

Ye Qingchen did not stop the bandits from their actions.

The whole Mad Saber Stronghold was massive; searching on his own would waste a lot of time. Let these bandits call out their three Village Chiefs!

"Dong~"

As the bell's sound spread.

Whoosh!

Almost instantly, a streak of light zipped out from Mad Saber Stronghold at extreme speed.

Boom!

The streak of light was incredibly fast.

Almost upon appearing, it swiftly reached Ye Qingchen's front.

"Boy, who are you, daring to trespass into our Mad Saber Stronghold and kill our people? Aren't you afraid of death?" The newcomer was a one-eyed man, burly with a majestic aura.

He burst into a stern shout the moment he appeared.

Let it be known.

Mad Saber Stronghold had stood on Thousand Cloud Mountain for decades, untouched by anyone, which already says a lot!

But now, someone dared to intrude into Mad Saber Stronghold, an unforgivable act.

"Who are you?"

Ye Qingchen asked in a grave tone.

"I am the Commander of the Army at Mad Saber Stronghold!" The one-eyed man's eyes gleamed with a sinister smile, "I don't care why you've come to our Mad Saber Stronghold, but it's unforgivable. Kneel and beg for mercy now, and perhaps I might leave you with a whole corpse..."

A whole corpse...

Before he could finish, Ye Qingchen had already raised a hand to seize. Instantly, a gale swept up in Thousand Cloud Mountain, and to the astonishment of many eyes, countless towering trees began to tremble.

Boundless green leaves whirled in the storm, transforming into an emerald long sword.

Simultaneously.

He slashed with a raised hand.

"What?"

The one-eyed man's heart trembled violently.

But he was a man who licked the blood from the blade, swiftly regaining his senses in his momentary shock. With a sudden draw of his right hand, an ear-piercing sound of knives clashing erupted in the air.

A silver blade light like a rampant dragon manifested in the air, dancing wildly like a dragon. At this moment, even the blazing sun in the sky seemed to pale in comparison.

In everyone's eyes, this was initially bound to be an earth-shattering blow, yet the next scene left everyone utterly astonished.

The sword, entirely formed of leaves, gently swept down, and the brilliant blade light, like a dragon, shattered instantly, vanishing into nothingness. And the momentum of the sword did not diminish, sweeping across to kill the one-eyed man outright.

Instant kill!

A single sword strike!

The bandits of Mad Saber Stronghold trembled uncontrollably.

They didn't know Ye Qingchen's prowess, but they knew that the Commander's strength ranked among the top five in all of Mad Saber Stronghold, yet now he had been wiped out in one sword strike?

Pfft!

Blood rained down from the sky.

The shattered body crashed onto the ground with a thud.

What sort of being was this young man? Why did he intrude into their Mad Saber Stronghold? When did their stronghold offend such a terrifying figure?

Just then.

"Whoosh!"

Another figure swiftly darted out from Mad Saber Stronghold, enlarging as it drew nearer, while laughter rang out in the sky, "Esteemed guest, how have we offended you to provoke such anger? If we have, this old man offers you our humble apologies..."

The newcomer was an elderly man.

He looked quite dignified, yet the malice in his eyes gave an extremely unsettling feeling, evidently a sly and deceitful character.

"Are you the Village Chief?"

Ye Qingchen asked.

"I'm not, I'm merely the..."

The old man smiled gently, offering a courteous grin, about to introduce himself.

However.

Ye Qingchen paid it no mind, raising his hand with a wave.

Whoosh!

A giant sword swept through the air with dazzling sword light.

Slash!

A ripping sound rang out.

In the stunned gaze of everyone, a bloody head plummeted from mid-air.

Silence!

The entire Mad Saber Stronghold fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone stared, dumbfounded, at the figure in mid-air, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, overshadowed by a surge of fear.

What terrifying entity had their Mad Saber Stronghold provoked?

At that moment.

Amidst the shocked gazes, Ye Qingchen remained incredibly indifferent, his demeanor suggesting he hadn't just obliterated significant figures of Mad Saber Stronghold, but merely crushed ants.

And under numerous trembling gazes, Ye Qingchen slowly lifted his head, his chilling voice resounding through the heavens, echoing across Mad Saber Stronghold:

"Tell your Village Chief to come out and meet his death!"
