Gu Yue's face showed dramatic changes, clearly filled with fear!

The current Ye Chen is too terrifying!

The entire Great Zhou Dynasty, including people from several nearby dynasties, already knew the story of Ye Chen ambushing and killing a Legendary Powerhouse.

Even though this was not Lingyun Mountain and Ye Chen could not leverage its power, according to some information, Thousand Spirits Sect's prodigy Shen Jie, at the Sixth Layer of Mortal Transformation Realm, was killed by Ye Chen without any external aid!

Although Gu Yue was at the Seventh Layer of Transcendence, he was well aware of his combat prowess and knew he was definitely not as strong as Shen Jie from the Thousand Spirits Sect, making him even less of a match for Ye Chen.

Therefore.

The instant Dongfang Xiu retreated swiftly.

Gu Yue immediately turned to run.

But just as Gu Yue turned, his feet seemed rooted to the ground.

Because Ye Chen had already appeared in front of him.

Gu Yue's facial muscles twitched continuously.

"Dongfang Xiu, how dare you conspire with Ye Chen against me!" Gu Yue roared in anger, shouting, "Now, the royal family, the Sect Alliance, the Great Qin Dynasty, and the Thousand Spirits Sect, all intend to kill him. If you join hands with him, there will be nowhere for you in this world!"

From afar, Dongfang Xiu looked at Gu Yue as if he were a fool.

You old thing, even if you scare me, I won't help you against Ye Chen... Back in the Celestial Sword Sect, you always bullied me, you're doomed this time!

Ye Chen looked at Gu Yue with a complex expression.

Hate?

Of course, he hated him to the core. For almost half a year, he thought every day of tearing Gu Yue to pieces!

But now, with Gu Yue right in front of him, the great revenge was about to be achieved, yet Ye Chen felt no excitement, only sorrow!

Once, killing Gu Yue for revenge was Ye Chen's only goal in life, but at that time, he was like an ant crawling on the ground, while Gu Yue soared in the sky like an eagle.

But now.

Ye Chen was no longer an ant; he too had become an eagle soaring into the sky, flying higher than Gu Yue. Looking at Gu Yue now... he was just this kind of trash, a single word from him had led the Ye Family to complete destruction without any chance to fight back!

This... is the transformation that power brings!

When weak, one can only be bullied.

The icy killing intent emanating from Ye Chen grew even more intense as he walked toward Gu Yue.

Gu Yue was so frightened that his soul almost left his body, legs turning to jelly, shouting, "Ye Chen, don't you have a Third Uncle? If you dare to kill me, your Third Uncle won't survive either!"

In his panic, Gu Yue finally found his last straw to clutch at and shouted, "Now, countless people want to kill you, but with you hiding in Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, no one could easily make a move.

So, I sent someone to capture your Third Uncle, intending to lure you out to take credit with the royal family and the Sect Alliance!

When I set out here, the people I arranged to capture your Third Uncle also set out and might have already succeeded. If you dare to kill me, my people will deliver your Third Uncle to the royal family or the Sect Alliance, and he will undoubtedly die.

Hahaha, he should be your last family member, right? If you don't want him to die, break your own arms now, and I'll have him released."

As Gu Yue spoke, the fear in his heart dissipated entirely.

He understood Ye Chen to some extent, and this was Ye Chen's biggest weakness!

He grasped Ye Chen's weakness, feeling emboldened!

"Boom!"

The power within Ye Chen erupted like a flood breaking a dam, rushing out with unparalleled ferocity.

"Swish!"

The Celestial Mark Sword, nurtured for two days, instantly unsheathed, its sharp brilliance as dazzling as a river of stars.

Gu Yue's temples throbbed violently, and he immediately raised his sword to block in front of him.

"Clang!"

Gu Yue's sword broke into two pieces, and his hand holding the sword was severed shoulder-to-shoulder by Ye Chen's strike!

"Ah!"

Gu Yue screamed, his body flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground, clutching his severed arm with a face full of pain and panic.

Even before acting, he knew he was no match for Ye Chen, but he hadn't expected... he couldn't even withstand a single move from Ye Chen!

"Don't you care about your Third Uncle's life?!" Gu Yue roared.

Ye Chen's response was another cleaving sword.

Gu Yue's left arm was also severed shoulder-to-shoulder!

"You don't dare kill me, you're afraid your Third Uncle will die too!" Gu Yue laughed maniacally, saying, "The pain you inflict on me, I will inflict tenfold, a hundredfold on your Third Uncle!"

Ye Chen maintained an indifferent expression, sweeping out another sword strike.

This time.

Gu Yue's two legs were severed!

With his limbs lost, Gu Yue rolled on the ground, blood spraying everywhere, a vision of utter misery!

But even so, compared to the tragedy of the Ye Clan members' deaths, it was nothing!

Ye Chen walked to Gu Yue's side, stomping on Gu Yue's chest.

"Crack!"

The sound of breaking ribs echoed.

Gu Yue's howling was more pitiful than a slaughtered pig.

"Ye Chen... you... you will regret this..." Gu Yue's voice was stuttered and weak.

Ye Chen looked down at Gu Yue and said, "If I don't kill you today, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

With those words, the sword edge swept across Gu Yue's neck!

Gu Yue's head rolled on the ground, eyes wide open.

At this moment, Dongfang Xiu approached and said, "What he said earlier may not be true."

Ye Chen said indifferently, "I'll go back to Qingyun City and find out the truth."

"Head straight to prepare in the Luoyao Mountain Range; Qingyun City... shouldn't be entered, there are bound to be many eyes watching there too!" Dongfang Xiu said.

"I said I would take Gu Yue's head to honor the Ye Clan members in heaven!"

......

Qingyun City.

Around the Ye family ancestral tomb, blood had stained the earth red.

From every direction, cultivators with not weak auras stood tall.

"Third Uncle Ye, later you should leave first with Qu Xiao from the Commandery Governor's Mansion, leave this place to us!" A burly bald-headed man, holding a gigantic iron hammer, said to Ye Zhenming.

He was Yuan Polu from the Spirit Martial Division of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy!

"That's right, Third Uncle Ye, your safety is most important now, you can't come to harm, otherwise, knowing Brother Ye's temperament, things will get complicated," said the Fatty, Yu Hui.

"Miss Qu, I entrust Junior Brother Ye's Third Uncle to you," Liu Meng'Er of the Spirit Martial Division said solemnly to Qu Xiao from the Commandery Governor's Mansion.

"Third Uncle Ye, come with me," Qu Xiao also said.

At this time, Ye Zhenming's expression was bitter.

He also knew that if he fell into these people's hands, it would seriously affect his nephew Ye Chen.

Now was not the time to act on impulse, so he nodded and said, "Miss Qu, I'll go with you!"

Among those surrounding the Ye family ancestral tomb area was a leading middle-aged man who sneered and said, "Besides Ye Zhenming, all of you can leave. If you want Ye Zhenming to leave, then all of you must die!"

Qu Xiao glared at this person and shouted, "Are you people sent by the royal family or the Sect Alliance?"

"A daughter of a Commandery Princess from Unrivaled County has no right to know," the leading middle-aged man said with an undisguised contempt in his eyes.

"I don't care where you're from, it's not important at all. Whoever tries to harm my junior brother's family, I'll hammer you to death, every last one of you!" Yuan Polu's giant iron hammer burst out with a terrifying aura!

The leading middle-aged man among those surrounding the area slowly drew a long knife from his waist and shouted, "Capture Ye Zhenming alive, everyone else, kill without mercy!"

And at that moment.

A loud shout, like thunder, echoed in everyone's ears.

"Whoever dares to harm my Third Uncle, death awaits you!"

With that thunderous voice, a golden light abruptly traversed the vast distance, appearing in front of the leading middle-aged man.

Then, a huge Sword Qi erupted, its brilliant sword light illuminating the heavens and the earth, with the sun and moon rising and setting within it.

With the sun and moon within the sword light, accompanied by the Sword Qi, it fiercely slashed towards that leading middle-aged man!
