Ouyang Zhong's corpse has always been kept by Ye Chen deep within the Human Emperor's Space.

The Human Emperor's Space is an extremely special space, containing an incredibly mysterious power.

Even if Ouyang Zhong's body is stored here for hundreds of years, it would not change in the slightest.

Hence, Ouyang Zhong's body looks just as it did before his fall, with even a remarkably rosy complexion.

Those unaware might even think Ouyang Zhong is still alive.

"Oh my god! It's Elder Ouyang's body."

"He looks like he just fell not long ago, what's going on here?" Above Profound Sword Peak, there was an uproar.

The gazes of all the powerful figures were fixed intently on Ouyang Zhong's corpse, filled with intense disbelief.

It's known that Ouyang Zhong had disappeared several months ago.

Many thought he had died in the Canglan Mountain Range.

And now, after all these days, his body should have completely decayed.

But now, Ouyang Zhong's body still looks vivid and lifelike, as if he had just fallen.

This is truly beyond the imagination of everyone.

"Damn it, how could this be? Could it be that this old dog Ouyang Zhong, before dying, went to find that little brat Ye Chen? If I had known, I would have done whatever it took to eliminate this little brat." Duanmu Ying's face suddenly changed drastically, her pearly teeth clenched tightly, eyes filled with deep regret.

She originally thought Ouyang Zhong must have been reduced to bones by now.

Even if Xiahou Shi admitted it was her who caused Ouyang Zhong's death, Ye Chen could not find any evidence.

Yet unexpectedly, Ouyang Zhong's body remained intact until now, looking no different from when he was alive.

Given this, even if she continued to deny, it was useless.

"Father, Father!" At this moment, Ouyang Xue suddenly screamed in sorrow, tears rolling down her cheeks as she rushed toward Ouyang Zhong's body with great speed.

Even though Ouyang Zhong had been missing for several months, Ouyang Xue had always held onto a sliver of hope that her father might still be alive.

But now, that sliver of hope was completely shattered.

"Father! It's me, Xue'er, please wake up, you can't just leave Xue'er alone." Ouyang Xue arrived in front of Ouyang Zhong, holding his body while crying bitterly.

"Teacher Ouyang, I'm sorry, I've kept this from you for so long. In fact, Elder Ouyang was already killed by this poisonous woman a few months ago; he told me everything before he died! But at that time, I was too weak to avenge Elder Ouyang, so I had to endure until now!" Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh, his face full of remorse.

He hadn't told Ouyang Xue about Ouyang Zhong's death previously, fearing that Ouyang Xue wouldn't be able to accept it and would go to fight Duanmu Ying desperately.

That would only have led to Ouyang Xue's death.

But now, Ye Chen had the strength to crush Duanmu Ying and avenge Ouyang Zhong.

Therefore, it was time to reveal this secret to the world.

"Duanmu Ying, why did you do this, my father has never wronged you, why did you harm him, why?" Ouyang Xue's eyes became blood-red as she roared at Duanmu Ying.

"Humph! Blame it on Ye Chen, that waste, if it weren't for him killing my nephew, Ouyang Zhong, that old dog, wouldn't have been dragged into this. He dared to meddle and protect Ye Chen, so he deserved to die." Duanmu Ying sneered, her mouth filled with cruel intent.

At this point, she no longer intended to hide it any longer.

Because, above Ouyang Zhong's body, there was still a trace of Profound Ice Sword Qi, and no matter how much she denied it, it was useless.

So, she directly admitted to having caused Ouyang Zhong's death.

"What? Elder Ouyang was actually killed by the Master of Profound Sword Peak, how could she do it?"

"Isn't she afraid of punishment from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect?" The experts from Celestial Flame Peak and Soul Palace gasped, their eyes wide with disbelief.

"Impossible, our Peak Master would never do such a thing." Even the students of Profound Sword Peak stood frozen in place, unable to accept the fact.

Since ancient times, Celestial Flame Academy has had clear regulations that the academy's upper echelon should not kill each other.

No matter how great the feud, it must be resolved above the Life and Death Battle Platform.

However, Duanmu Ying secretly colluded with Xiahou Shi, a person from another dynasty, to ambush Ouyang Zhong in the Canglan Mountain Range, ultimately leading to his downfall.

This undoubtedly violated the critical taboo of Celestial Flame Academy.

At this moment, Duanmu Ying's image in the minds of the students of Profound Sword Peak has instantly collapsed.

"Hmph! The victor becomes the king, and the defeated are vilified. I lost to a waste like you who only relies on Secret Treasures today, and I accept that. However, I am the Peak Master of Profound Sword Peak, and only the powerful of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect have the right to punish me. As for you, a mere waste, you have no such right. If you're not afraid of the punishment from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, then go ahead and make your move. I'd like to see if you have the guts." Duanmu Ying said with a cold smile, eyes full of intense mockery, looking like she had nothing to fear.

Yes!

She was indeed responsible for the death of that old dog Ouyang Zhong.

However, she was after all the Peak Master of Profound Sword Peak, protected by the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

If Ye Chen dares to kill her openly, it would mean going against the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

At that time, he would definitely not be able to withstand the wrath of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

"Is that so? Then I'll do as you wish." Ye Chen, with an indifferent glance, activated the Celestial Spirits within him, ready to crush Duanmu Ying.

Duanmu Ying now has already completely become a useless person, killing her would take no effort at all.

"Presumptuous! You lowlife, who gave you the courage to kill the Peak Master of Profound Sword Peak? Remember, you are no longer the Hall Master of War King Hall; what right do you have to punish her instead of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect?" At this moment, a cold voice suddenly rang in Ye Chen's ear.

The one speaking was Lu Tong, Patriarch of the Lu Family.

He raised his head high, with a mouthful of mocking expression, scolding Ye Chen harshly.

Bang!

In the next moment, a violent surge of Celestial Spirits erupted from Lu Tong's body, instantly intercepting the Celestial Spirits released by Ye Chen.

If not, Duanmu Ying would definitely be dead already.

"Do you also have a death wish?" In Ye Chen's eyes, a terrifying cold gleam shot out, speaking coldly to Lu Tong.

"Ha! Ye Chen, don't think that just because you've lucked into some powerful Secret Treasures, you can do as you please. In this world, there are plenty of people who can crush you with ease. Now, obediently release Duanmu Ying and Xiahou Shi, and hand over the Hall Master Seal you have. Otherwise, I guarantee that no one will be able to save you, no matter where you escape." Lu Tong couldn't help but sneer, ordering Ye Chen.

He admitted that Ye Chen's strength was indeed formidable after leveraging the power of Secret Treasures.

However, beyond this world, there are heavens beyond heavens, people beyond people.

In front of his son Lu Ping, Ye Chen was nothing but a joke.

If his son wanted to crush Ye Chen, it would be no different from crushing a dog.

"Ye Chen, didn't you hear? Release me at once. Do you know who the Lu Patriarch is? His son Lu Ping is the top ranked genius on the Hidden Dragon List and has already been taken as a disciple by the senior figures at Overlord Body Peak. You're no match for him at all. If you dare to defy the Lu Patriarch's orders, you're courting death! So I advise you not to persist in error. There's still time to turn back." Xiahou Shi scolded Ye Chen, as if clutching at a lifeline.

In his view, the Lu Patriarch was definitely saving him deliberately to please their Xiahou Family.

With the Lu Patriarch here, he couldn't believe that Ye Chen, this little bastard, would dare to defy him.

"Foolish, now die." At this point, the telekinetic force trapping Xiahou Shi suddenly became violent, as if it was a terrifying giant hand, squeezing down hard on Xiahou Shi.

"No! You little bastard, how dare you?" Xiahou Shi's pupils suddenly shrank, letting out a voice filled with terror and despair.

He really didn't expect Ye Chen would dare to move against and kill him.

With a loud puff.

The next moment, Xiahou Shi's body exploded into a bloody mist under the telekinetic hand, dead beyond dead.

Ye Chen didn't care who the Lu Family Patriarch was.

If he wanted Xiahou Shi dead, no one could save him.

"Duanmu Ying, now it's your turn, vile woman. Whoever dares to save her, I'll suppress them all." Ye Chen's gaze icy cold, glaring at Duanmu Ying, spoke with a dominant, powerful tone that made people shiver involuntarily.

"Damn it, really damn it, you reckless lowlife, you actually dare to defy my orders. Who gave you such courage?" Seeing Ye Chen crush Xiahou Shi to death in front of him, Lu Tong's face instantly turned extremely grim, with blazing anger in his eyes.

After all, he is Lu Ping's father! Not to mention in small places like the Celestial Flame Dynasty, even among the six great First Class Dynasties, few people dared to provoke him.

Moreover, this time he had come under the command of an elder from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect to take over the War King Hall.

If anyone dared to defy his orders, it would mean going against the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

But now, this waste Ye Chen, who couldn't even awaken his bloodline, not only didn't listen to him by handing over the Hall Master Seal of the War King Hall, but also killed Xiahou Shi right in front of him.

To him, this was simply an utter humiliation.

"Old fool, shut your mouth. If you dare to interfere again, I will make you regret it. Even if you're from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, I will kill without hesitation. If you don't believe me, just try." A terrifying killing intent suddenly erupted from Ye Chen's body, issuing a stern warning to Lu Tong.
