Best Young Master

"Bold of you, violating city regulations means you must accept punishment, yet you dare to resist arrest, kill him without mercy!"

The soldier who once clashed with Ye Fan at the city gate sneered and said with righteousness.

"You have become someone else’s pawns, you have no right to talk to me about city regulations."

Ye Fan said coldly, choosing to act directly, and immediately engaged in battle with the many soldiers.

Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, Mountain and River Seal, Divine Soul Resonance Heavenly Sound, Soldier Control Technique...

Ye Fan used the various deadly techniques of Emperor Sha to attack in turn, catching the soldiers off guard and throwing them into a panic.

Besides, Ye Fan unfolded the Eight Phase World Domain, the strongest defense, Unaffected by Ten Thousand Techniques, preventing any attack from breaking through his defense.

Recently, Ye Fan researched the origin of the Black Broken Bowl obtained from Skull Venerable. It turned out to be a piece of Ancient Shield Fragment refined, made of the same material as his Heart Protecting Armor.

So far, he had acquired three pieces of Ancient Shield Fragments, but they were not connected and couldn’t be pieced together, so he could only put them away for now and wait for an opportunity to collect all the fragments to restore the Ancient Shield’s divine power.

An hour passed, and Ye Fan’s vitality was as vigorous as a dragon, his Divine Power never exhausted, and more than twenty soldiers couldn’t capture him. Instead, they were driven to chaos by his Xuan Ci Polar Light, almost getting killed in return.

"How can this Ye be so powerful?"

"And the Iron Blooded Fifteen Riders haven’t appeared, could they have also been slain by this Ye Fan?"

"Have the Iron Blooded Fifteen Riders also fallen? This is truly shocking news!"

"Did he single-handedly slaughter everyone? This is incredible!!"

Realizing this, many showed expressions of shock, some even finding it unbelievable.

Every hero showed a different color. At this moment, anyone could see that he was an exceptionally strong peer, a definite seed figure.

Who could persist under the siege of more than twenty city-guarding soldiers until now?

It’s simply a miracle.

However, Ye Fan achieved it, creating such a miracle!

This was an incomparably glorious battle record, truly becoming stronger the stronger the opponent, facing so many people, yet he could hold out unscathed, nearly killing the city-guarding soldiers in return.

This set off alarm bells in many people’s hearts, listing him as a heavily dangerous figure, even other seed-level strong people were paying attention, silent.

"This child is not simple, very powerful! Can they capture him?"

A soldier beside the Commander asked in a solemn tone.

"As strong as he is, it’s useless, he violated city regulations, his road ends here."

The Commander said coldly, without a hint of emotion on his face.

There is no shortage of geniuses on the strongest Ancient Road, over the years, they have witnessed some incredible heaven-defying existences.

Compared to those people, although Ye Fan is very strong, he hasn’t reached the heaven-defying level, not enough to worry!

Ye Fan employed all his skills, fighting fiercely with over twenty soldiers, causing heaven and earth to collapse, stars to shake and fall.

He dared not let himself fall into encirclement, these soldiers were all very strong, each one had embarked on this strongest trial road, ultimately those who failed.

Though they were failures on the road of Proving Dao, just surviving explained much, they were top strong people from their respective Star Domains, even on this genius-gathering Ancient Star Path, they were still strong people.

"Stop!"

In the midst of Ye Fan’s persistent battle, a majestic voice came from across the sky, followed by a disturbance in the void, a towering middle-aged man wearing a crown appeared beneath the starry sky.

"City Lord!"

More than twenty soldiers stopped simultaneously, then bowed to the newcomer, standing respectfully to the side, not daring to breathe.

Only then did people realize that this seemingly magnificent man was unexpectedly the City Lord of the Human Clan’s First City, causing a shock in their hearts.

Confronting such a Super Strong Man, even the top geniuses from various Star Domains wouldn’t dare to be reckless!

"Greetings, City Lord!"

Everyone bowed to him, only Ye Fan didn’t move but stared at him with shining eyes, without a bit of retreating.

"Why were you fighting?"

The City Lord glanced at the Commander, finally fixing his gaze on Ye Fan.

"Reporting to the City Lord, this trialist broke the city regulations, went on a killing spree outside the Trial Arena, killing two trialists, we want to capture him and hand him over to you for punishment, but he openly resisted due to his strength, so..."

The Commander briefly explained the situation.

"Why did you violate the city regulations, do you think I’m just a figurehead as the City Lord?"

The City Lord said coldly to Ye Fan.

"City Lord, they blocked me at the entrance, attempting to kill me, I had to fight back!" Ye Fan said in a deep voice, "Additionally, I have a request, may the City Lord enlighten me!"

"Go ahead!" the City Lord said indifferently.

"I’d like to ask, is the Human Clan’s First City your family’s city?"

"What do you mean?"

"It’s very simple. Your son bullied others, sent people to hunt me down in the Trial Arena, and after coming out, he wanted to kill me using city regulations. Even if you claim ignorance, shouldn’t you be accountable for improper supervision?"

Ye Fan said word by word, "If this matter gets known by the forces on Linxian Ancient Star, they will surely come to demand an explanation!"

"You come from Linxian Ancient Star?"

The City Lord glanced at Ye Fan and asked.

"That’s right, we are indeed from Linxian Ancient Star." Before Ye Fan had a chance to speak, Bai Yan Wolf spoke first.

"No wonder you’re so arrogant, but since you’ve violated city regulations, you should accept punishment. It doesn’t matter where you’re from; everyone is treated equally. If people from Linxian Ancient Star come to demand an explanation, I will explain it to them, you don’t need to worry about it."

The City Lord said forcefully, "You were blatantly committing crimes outside the Trial Arena, relying on your own strength to forcibly resist arrest. Am I wronging you? Just on this basis, I could execute you!"

"It was those people who wanted to kill me; I was merely acting in self-defense. You also said that when attacked, one can defend oneself. Isn’t taking necessary measures for defense also against city regulations?"

Ye Fan’s heart sank, knowing that the City Lord was targeting him, but he still wanted to make a last effort.

"There are no witnesses to back you up now. You say they provoked and attacked you first; what evidence do you have? Without evidence, how can you prove you’re not a bloodthirsty Demon King?" The City Lord said coldly.

"How about this, imprison him first, and deal with it after an investigation is conducted. Men, take him down!"

The City Lord’s face was full of righteous indignation, as if capturing Ye Fan was merely to uphold city regulations without any personal motives.

Only Ye Fan knew that once he fell into the hands of the City Lord, he would be at their mercy. So he must not remain passive; even knowing he couldn’t win, he had to resist.

"Father and son collude with each other; the Human Clan’s First City no longer has any justice. This trial road, I will not walk it!"

Ye Fan rose to resist, and the vigorous vitality pierced through the sky, with a single Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, he sent the soldiers capturing him flying.

"Fairness requires strength, without strength there is no fairness!"

The City Lord chuckled coldly, reaching out a large hand that seemed to cover the sky and sun, containing a universe with sun, moon, and stars within his fingers, instantly confining Ye Fan.

"Hiss!"

The City Lord flicked his finger, and golden rings fell on Ye Fan and Bai Yan Wolf, instantly immobilizing them.

"First, imprison them in the Heavenly Prison. After the situation is clarified, we will handle it."

After speaking, the City Lord tore the void with his hands, stepped out, and disappeared instantly from the scene.

"It’s over, that Ye fellow is done for. Once locked in the Heavenly Prison, almost no one gets out alive."

"Who told him to be so unwise? Daring to defy the City Lord is just asking for trouble, isn’t it?"

"The Heavenly Prison... the most terrifying prison of the Starry Sky’s First City. Being imprisoned there means one won’t see the light of day again, unless he breaks through to Quasi-Emperor level within the prison. But that’s just joking; the thin Primordial Qi in the Heavenly Prison, combined with Quasi-Emperor level suppression, makes it nearly impossible to break through."

Upon hearing that Ye Fan would soon be imprisoned in the most terrifying Heavenly Prison, people couldn’t help but discuss it, and some cultivators who knew about the Heavenly Prison secretly pitied Ye Fan.

Such a Seed Level strong man who could even kill the Iron Blooded Fifteen Riders has just fallen like this, with no chance left.

Those who can set foot on the strongest trial road are not fools; they clearly understand that the City Lord is targeting Ye Fan for his son’s revenge.

Just as Ye Fan said, in this Human Clan’s First City, there is no fairness to speak of; it has become the City Lord’s domain.

However—

They could only discuss it privately; faced with the powerful City Lord, none of them was a match. Even if they wanted to stand up for Ye Fan, they didn’t have the strength.

The Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path has been silent for too long, decayed and decrepit, needing a genius against all odds to reshuffle!

Amidst the discussions, people again stepped onto the altar, traversing the Star Domain, returning to the Human Clan’s First City. Naturally, Ye Fan was also brought back.

The Heavenly Prison is located on a desolate Ancient Star not far from the Human Clan’s First City, filled with various seals, a natural cage.

After returning to the Human Clan’s First City, Ye Fan was escorted and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, with no possibility of escape.

Inside the City Lord Mansion, Pang Xie looked at his father, who was sitting pensively in the Taishi Chair, and said discontentedly, "Father, what are you hesitating for? Execute that Ye ant immediately, and we can gain a lot of martial arts and secret techniques from him, as well as Xuan Ci Polar Light and the broken Emperor Weapon. Are you going to let him go?"

"Son, you don’t understand, this young man has a special identity. You also know he carries an Emperor Weapon. If we force it, it could end in mutual destruction, and we would gain nothing. Moreover, if the strong people from Linxian Ancient Star pursue the matter, I wouldn’t be able to explain it as your father."

said the City Lord.

"Father, are you saying just let this matter go? Now that Ye has become my Heart Demon, my cultivation cannot progress further unless he’s dead. Are you willing to let my cultivation stagnate?" Pang Xie said unwillingly.

"Don’t worry, son, let me think of a solution that satisfies both sides. Rest assured, you are my only son, and I won’t neglect your cultivation." A flash of sinister light passed through the City Lord’s eyes.

"Father, I do have an idea that can get rid of this Ye ant while leaving the people from Linxian Ancient Star speechless." Pang Xie’s eyes flashed with sharp Divine Radiance, and he quietly suggested to his father.

"What idea do you have? Tell me!"

The City Lord looked at his son in surprise and asked.

"It’s quite simple."

Pang Xie said, "We can send him into the Forbidden Zone of the Heavenly Prison, claiming he went in by himself and leave a record. Even if the strong people from Linxian Ancient Star come to investigate, they will have nothing to say, and we, effortlessly, will get the Emperor Weapon!"
