The middle-aged man appeared shocked. Although he was at the Peak of the Transcendent Realm, faced with this sudden attack, his mind went completely blank, and he could only place his long knife barely above his head.
Sword Qi struck the long knife.
The surface of the long knife was instantly covered in cracks.
Immediately after, along with the Sword Qi, a Great Sun and a Bright Moon descended and exploded simultaneously!
The forces of Ultimate Yin and Ultimate Yang suddenly sparked a terrifying storm, blowing the middle-aged man's body into ashes.
The people standing beside the middle-aged man were also sent flying away.
"Kill!"
Yuan Polu roared. Although he was shocked that his junior brother would appear at this moment, it wasn't the time to be in a daze. They needed to deal with these fellows first!
Yuan Polu's integration of Spirit and Martial was a fusion of Qi and Blood Power and Spirit Seal Power. Additionally, he had recently begun practicing the Dragon Race's body-forging techniques, making his power more domineering and fierce.
With one hammer blow, he crushed a High-Tier Transcendent Realm fighter into a pulp!
Liu Meng'Er and Brother Fatty also unleashed their killing techniques, launching a ferocious assault on these people.
Qu Xiao, wielding a long knife, personally guarded Ye Zhenming. Most of Unrivaled County's elite Defense Army had also engaged, leaving only a few to protect Ye Zhenming with Qu Xiao.
In the field.
The rumbling never stopped.
Ye Chen's killing intent boiled, and after killing Gu Yue, he rushed to Qingyun City and made it just in time before major issues arose!
The combined Invincible Sword Momentum and Slaughter Sword Momentum filled the battlefield.
Under Ye Chen's control, the soaring battle will of the Invincible Sword Momentum empowered his allies and suppressed his opponents.
The cold killing intent, on the other hand, entirely intimidated the enemies' spirits.
Ye Chen utilized his Sword Momentum to the extreme.
Simultaneously, Ye Chen's strength poured out without reservation along with his sword moves.
Thirteen Death Swords, Thunderbolt Sword, Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique, Void Clarity Sword Technique, Myriad Swords Return to the Ancestor, and Yin Yang Transformation of Sun and Moon—all these various sword techniques switched freely in his hands.
At this moment, he no longer cared about the linkage between moves. Every move aimed for the fastest killing speed. As long as he could kill the enemy, it was the right move!
Before he knew it, these vastly different sword techniques started to coalesce into one!
Screams echoed one after another.
Blood mist filled the air, dyeing the sky red.
Severed limbs and fragments continuously flew through the air.
After a quarter of an hour.
Over eighty percent of the people surrounding them were either dead or injured. The remaining ones, terrified out of their wits, dispersed in different directions to flee.
Ye Chen did not pursue, and the others also stopped.
"Junior Brother, weren't you in the Secret Transmission Realm?" Yuan Polu finally voiced his doubts.
Ye Chen looked at Yuan Polu, Liu Meng'Er, and Brother Fatty, saying, "Everyone has been risking everything for my sake, how could I just hide away?"
Then Ye Chen looked at Ye Zhenming with tears in his eyes.
Ye Zhenming trembled with excitement.
In less than half a year, he had heard countless rumors about his nephew Ye Chen.
Outsiders all spoke of Ye Chen's monstrous talent and the countless strong foes he had slain, but Ye Zhenming was more concerned about the risks Ye Chen had been facing behind all these glorious achievements!
He knew that his nephew, who was just a naive young man six months ago, had been walking the edge of life and death during these months.
"Third Uncle!"
Ye Chen walked to Ye Zhenming's side, his voice trembling slightly.
Ye Zhenming took a deep breath, his strong palm heavily slapping Ye Chen's shoulder!
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Ye Zhenming exclaimed three times, then shouted, "You truly are a son of the Ye Family. Third Uncle is proud of you, and the spirits of the Ye Clan Members will also be proud of you!"
Ye Chen slowly raised his hand, revealing a blood-stained cloth bag.
"Third Uncle, this is the head of that old bastard Gu Yue. I fulfilled the task I promised!" Ye Chen said solemnly.
Beside him.
Yuan Polu and others were also moved by this scene and at the same time, shocked... Ye Chen had found and killed Gu Yue before coming here... How on earth did he manage that?!
The only one who guessed the truth, Brother Fatty, said nothing, his thoughts complex.
Ye Chen, at this critical juncture, avenged the extermination of his clan without regards to any risk, which meant he was about to leave Cangxing Martial Arts Academy and the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Brother Fatty clenched a piece of beast skin hidden in his sleeve that detailed the route to the True Martial Hall, remaining silent.
At this moment.
Ye Chen and Ye Zhenming walked together to the tombs of the Ye Family and knelt down together.
Ye Chen retrieved Gu Yue's head from the bag.
"Father, clan members, Chen'Er has come to see you, the Huang Family is destroyed, Gu Yue is dead, Chen'Er has avenged you!" Ye Chen's voice choked. These few words carried immense weight.
Ye Zhenming patted Ye Chen's shoulder, saying, "Big Brother, clan members, our Chen'Er has become stronger than you ever imagined.
Chen'Er joined the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy and took first place in the academy's freshman trials!
Chen'Er went to Demon Suppression Valley to battle, killed countless demons, and destroyed the demon source inside the demon lair!
Chen'Er also participated in the Great Zhou Martial Arts Academy's triennial Grand Tournament, not only leading the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy to win first place in the team competition but also winning first place in the individual competition!
A few days ago, Chen'Er went to Lingyun Mountain, where even Legendary Powerhouses at the Heaven-Reaching Realm fell to his hands!
Our Chen'Er has grown up, no longer needing your worry. Rest assured, he has become the man you all wished for him to be!"
As he spoke, Ye Zhenming's face, full of gratified appreciation, was already awash with tears.
......
After a long time.
Ye Chen and Ye Zhenming stood up and walked to where Yuan Polu and the others were.
Ye Chen put away his sorrow and said, "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, why are you all here?"
Yuan Polu said, "Master sent you into the Secret Transmission Realm, then had your Senior Sister and me come here to keep watch, and then we encountered Qu Xiao. As for Brother Fatty, he came by himself."
Qu Xiao said, "Ever since the incident at Lingyun Mountain spread, my father had me bring the elite Defense Army here as a precaution. Fortunately, the powerful figures from various factions have not yet taken action. My father insists that we must get Third Uncle Ye out of Qingyun City."
Liu Meng'Er also said, "Indeed, Third Uncle Ye can't stay in Qingyun City any longer. Master also instructed us to bring Third Uncle Ye to the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy."
Ye Zhenming shook his head, then turned to look at the tombs of the Ye Clan Members behind him, saying, "The Cangxing Martial Arts Academy is unnecessary. I will take them and find a secluded mountain forest."
"Third Uncle..." Ye Chen looked at Ye Zhenming, wanting to say many things.
"Chen'Er, my mind is made up." Ye Zhenming's attitude was firm.
Brother Fatty said, "That's actually a good choice. Brother Ye, leave this matter to me, my grandfather will surely arrange it well. When you return, you can always visit Third Uncle Ye and pay respects to the Ye Clan Members."
Ye Chen stared at Brother Fatty. It seemed Brother Fatty had also guessed his intentions, or else he wouldn't have said the words "when you return."
Adapting to the circumstances.
The matter of relocating the tombs was kept as simple as possible.
"Brother Ye, could we speak in private?" Brother Fatty said.
Then, the two walked to a more distant spot. Brother Fatty sighed and said, "Brother Ye, it hasn't come to that point yet; there could still be a turnaround."
Ye Chen said, "Even if there is a turnaround, the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy would have to pay a heavy price. I don't want that."
Brother Fatty had many things he wanted to say but didn't know how. In the end, he handed Ye Chen the piece of beast skin, saying, "My grandfather asked me to give this to you. It's the map to the True Martial Hall."
Ye Chen accepted the map, saying, "Brother Fatty, thank you!"
Brother Fatty's expression was solemn, "Take care!"
"Tell them I'm sorry I can't say goodbye to them in person."
After saying this, Ye Chen turned, stepped into a golden light, and left!
If he said goodbye in person, Senior Brother Yuan Polu and Senior Sister Liu Meng'Er would surely stop him, so he could only leave without a word.
And the next step was to make a huge disturbance, letting everyone know that he had no ties left with the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. If all went well... then perhaps he would slay a few more Legendary Powerhouses!
