Chapter 2234 - 2235: The Beginning of the Storm

Sponsored

Ye Xunhuan and the King were casually eating and chatting, the atmosphere not exactly harmonious, but not too dull either.

After about twenty minutes, Ye Xunhuan finally had his fill, and the King also stopped eating.

Meanwhile, people started gathering around them, glaring at Ye Xunhuan like wolves. Yet, because of the King’s presence, none dared to step forward, simply standing quietly aside, watching Ye Xunhuan and the King.

In the next moment, Ye Xunhuan drained his cup and then smashed it onto the ground: "King, time’s up. If it’s a fight you want, let’s fight!"

As he spoke, a sinister killing intent emanated from Ye Xunhuan, making him resemble a sharp sword unsheathed, his fierce aura sweeping all around.

The King knew the time had come as well, the moment to judge Ye Xunhuan, so he did not continue babbling but lightly waved his right hand, as if a gust of wind swept through, moving the table between them aside while exuding a forceful presence!

"Ye Xunhuan, do you admit to killing the Protector of the Nation?"

"Xun Wanli wanted to kill me, so I couldn’t kill him?" Ye Xunhuan locked eyes with the King, like two fierce tigers staring each other down, trying to overpower each other in presence.

"Why did Xun Wanli want to kill you?"

"You’ve always wanted me dead, does he need a reason, or don’t you already know?"

Although the King had already told Ye Xunhuan everything, revealing that Xun Wanli was just a pawn of his, Ye Xunhuan knew saying this would convince no one, perhaps even spark anger from others, so Ye Xunhuan remained silent.

After all, some things only need to be known between you and me, saying them out loud serves no purpose and might even provoke more anger.

This time, the King didn’t speak immediately but stood up, taking two steps forward: "Ye Xunhuan, your killing of Xun Wanli equates to cutting off my arm, destroying our nation’s strongest wall of protection!"

"Moreover, you repeatedly challenge our Guardians of the Nation, I’ve tolerated you for your youth again and again, and now I’ve issued an ultimatum to the Xiahou family to bring you to apologize, yet the Xiahou family refused to comply!" The King said firmly: "Hence, I must personally judge you!"

As he spoke, the King suddenly turned: "Ye Xunhuan, I know you were once the Hidden Dragon of the Hidden Dragon, you have rendered countless services and shed blood for this country."

"But achievements can’t offset guilt." The King said heavily: "Yet, acknowledging your contributions and deeds for this country, along with the token you hold, I spare your life, rendering the token obsolete!"

At this moment, the King directly snatched a trump card from Ye Xunhuan’s hand, and it’s clear he’s about to make his move, which Ye Xunhuan is well aware of!

"I only require you to face the wall at Wall Cliff for fifty years!" The King said heavily: "After fifty years, the Guardians will release you!"

The King phrased his words beautifully, creating a facade of benevolence, making everyone believe he’s upright and just, distinguished with clear rights and wrongs, a manifestly honorable gentleman.

Yet, only Ye Xunhuan knows that he’s a total Yue Buqun, a complete hypocrite.

Unfortunately, only Ye Xunhuan knows this, and he also understands that even if he reveals the King’s true nature to those present, they wouldn’t believe, so he remains silent, quietly listening.

"Ye Xunhuan, will you surrender yourself, or shall we take action?" The King coldly demanded: "If you surrender, I’ll confine you for fifty years in repentance, if we take action, you’ll be confined till death!"

"King, why so much nonsense, if you want me to surrender, show all your strength!" Ye Xunhuan snorted coldly: "Will you capture me yourself, or will these useless ones do it?"

With that, Ye Xunhuan glanced over everyone present.

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan was single-handedly challenging everyone present, including the King!

Ye Xunhuan’s arrogant words instantly angered everyone there.

"Marshal, you’re too arrogant!"

Then a nun wearing a Taoist robe stepped out.

"From Emei?"

"Marshal, you once killed our Emei disciple in the capital, harmed my junior sister..."

"What, want revenge?" Ye Xunhuan interrupted her: "If revenge is what you seek, then act, why waste so many words!"

Ye Xunhuan naturally knew she was referring to the incident with the Yan family, and also knew the junior sister mentioned was Yan Jingchu’s master, but he had forgotten the name of Yan Jingchu’s master.

After all, she was just a dead person, why would Ye Xunhuan remember her name!

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s impatient expression, the nun’s face immediately turned icy, her eyes seemed to shoot out fiery flames that would turn Ye Xunhuan to ashes.

"King..."

"If you want to act, then act, but he’s difficult to deal with, I advise you to let him experience your Emei Seven Wonders Formation!" The King advised.

"Alright!" The nun replied spiritedly: "Form the array!"

As soon as the nun finished speaking, six white figures darted out like ghosts, swiftly heading for Ye Xunhuan.

In an instant, all positions around Ye Xunhuan were surrounded.

"Marshal, the King said if you surrender..."

"Old nun, you’re here for revenge, not playing the good guy, is it meaningful?" Ye Xunhuan shook his head helplessly: "Or is it that both monks and Taoists are like Tang Monk, always chanting day and night!"

"Since you want to die, I’ll fulfill your wish!"

As she finished speaking, the nun’s face turned cold, she called out loudly: "Sword technique!"

With that, the three-foot sword in her hand unsheathed!

"Clang!"

The crisp sound like a dragon’s roar resonated around, then the nun leaped, like a dragon emerging from the sea, rapidly charging at Ye Xunhuan.

As the nun moved, the six others surrounding Ye Xunhuan began moving too, all at extremely fast speeds.

In just an instant, countless sword shadows flashed like a meteor shower in the sky, exceptionally dazzling!

Ye Xunhuan’s eyes slowly narrowed, the killing intent in them converging all at once.
