Chapter 1801 - 1798: Slaying Yuy Chong
After reprimanding his son, Wang Shifeng shouted into the forest: "Miss Ye, Miss Hongshang, as the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. You two should not only think for yourselves but also for those disciples of the Star Pavilion."
"As long as you are willing to surrender, Wang Shifeng assures you, you will absolutely be safe!"
Before Wang Shifeng’s words fell, Lian Hongshang’s icy voice suddenly rang out.
"Wang Shifeng, you traitor who bites the hand that feeds you. Aren’t you afraid that Li Chen will return and take your life?"
Upon hearing the name "Li Chen," Wang Shifeng involuntarily shivered.
However, he quickly regained his composure.
"Humph, Li Chen is likely buried deep within the universe now, and his dao vanished. Why should I fear him?"
As he spoke these words, he deliberately raised his voice a bit, to bolster his courage.
Yuy Chong heard the conversation between Wang Shifeng and Lian Hongshang and asked arrogantly: "Wang Shifeng, the Li Chen she mentioned, is that the long-lost Star Pavilion Master?"
Wang Shifeng hurriedly nodded and replied: "Yes, that’s correct. Li Chen was a prodigy, undefeated in all his battles..."
Before Wang Shifeng could finish speaking, Yuy Chong impatiently interrupted:
"What undefeated? You’re just frogs in a well, arrogant and ignorant. If Li Chen were here, I’d cut him down with my sword!"
As he spoke, Yuy Chong suddenly raised the Spirit Sword in his hand and fiercely sliced a towering ancient tree in half before him.
As if the ancient tree were Li Chen himself.
Though Wang Shifeng felt Yuy Chong was overly arrogant, he still spared no effort to cheer for him.
Yuy Chong was buoyed by the praise, and he even looked up at the sky and sighed:
"Ah, it’s a pity Li Chen is not here. Otherwise, I would really like to duel him, defeat him honorably, and let you ignorant humans see what a real genius is!"
"Oh, you think you’re a genius?"
At this moment, a voice as icy as that of Death God suddenly rang out.
Hearing the familiar voice, Wang Shifeng immediately froze in place.
"Li, Li, Li Chen?"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s voice, Ye Chuxue, Lian Hongshang, and others burst into tears of joy.
They even doubted whether they were hallucinating.
But eventually, the truth revealed that this wasn’t an illusion.
Li Chen appeared out of nowhere, with an attitude of overlooking the world, gazing down at the young man named Yuy Chong.
Seeing Li Chen appear, Yuy Chong flew into a rage and shouted, "Are you the Star Pavilion Master Li Chen?"
Li Chen nodded and replied: "Yes, I am Li Chen!"
Yuy Chong’s face contorted with anger, and he shouted fiercely: "You came just in time; today I want to fight you for three hundred rounds and see who the real genius is!"
Hearing Yuy Chong’s words, Li Chen couldn’t help but laugh coldly.
"Haha!"
Yuy Chong was unnerved by Li Chen’s laugh, and he immediately glared with fury, shouting: "What are you laughing at?"
Li Chen glanced coldly at Yuy Chong and said disdainfully: "Do you think you’re worthy?"
Hearing these words from Li Chen, Yuy Chong was instantly furious.
In Tianyang Palace, he ranked among the top ten Heavenly Pride, a role model for others, and yet he was never shamed like this before.
"You’re asking for death!"
After letting out this hysterical roar, Yuy Chong’s cultivation in the Divinity Transformation Realm was revealed, emanating an unmatched aura of pressure.
Immediately, with his sword raised, he slashed toward Li Chen as if he were slicing ancient trees.
Li Chen stood like a tree, unmoving.
Just as Yuy Chong’s Sword Light was about to fall on his head, Li Chen suddenly sneered with disdain from between his teeth.
"Haha, overestimating yourself!"
As he spoke, he flicked his finger and shot a Sword Intent straight toward Yuy Chong’s Sword Light.
"Clang!"
With just one exchange, Yuy Chong’s Spirit Sword broke on the spot.
The condensed Sword Intent continued with its invincible momentum, piercing toward him after penetrating Yuy Chong’s Spirit Sword.
Seeing the situation, Yuy Chong was greatly terrified. He hastily constructed dozens of defensive systems, hoping to block the life-threatening Sword Intent.
However, all his defensive systems in front of Li Chen’s simple and unadorned Sword Intent were like tofu.
"Squelch!"
The Sword Intent instantly pierced through Yuy Chong’s throat Life Gate, and a dazzling red blossom bloomed in the sky.
Yuy Chong’s pupils dilated wide, filled with disbelief.
Evidently, he could not die in peace!
"Hiss!"
Seeing Li Chen casually create a Sword Intent that pierced through Yuy Chong’s Life Gate, Wang Shifeng and others were scared witless.
Wang Shifeng wanted to flee, but before he could take ten steps, he heard Li Chen’s icy voice akin to Death God from behind.
"Elder Wang, where do you think you’re going?"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Wang Shifeng’s legs went weak, and he collapsed on the ground.
"Spare me, Pavilion Master, spare me..."
Li Chen’s lips curved into a disdainful cold smile.
"Haha, Elder Wang, you only think of begging for mercy now? Don’t you think it’s a bit late?"
Elder Wang’s face turned ashen, non-stop repeating "spare me, spare me," while his forehead continuously knocked the ground, cracking with blood.
However, Li Chen was completely unmoved; he only coldly uttered,
"Killing trash like you would only dirty my hands!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Shifeng naturally assumed his kowtow was effective.
But before he could rejoice, he suddenly heard a soul-stirring tiger roar.
He looked up to see two Ancient Great Evils, staring at him with blood-red eyes.
These two Ancient Great Evils were Red Tiger and Taotie.
"Roar!"
Taotie abruptly opened its massive mouth and before Wang Shifeng could react, gulped his entire body down, chewing voraciously. This scene was horrifying.
The cultivators following Wang Shifeng were terrified beyond measure by this horrific scene.
They wanted to utter some pleas for mercy, but at the moment of speaking, they felt choked, unable to say anything.
Li Chen’s gaze coldly swept over them, and he ordered Red Tiger and Taotie: "People like them don’t deserve to stay in this world, you deal with them!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Red Tiger and Taotie were extremely excited.
Especially Taotie, whose beast eyes seemed to spew fire.
With a leap, he devoured a cultivator directly into his stomach. As he chewed, he kept smacking his lips, making the scene extremely terrifying.
In an instant, cries of ghosts and wolves howled...
