Chapter 1447 - 1438: Scared Stiff
Earth Profound Realm.
Inside the great hall of Ye Gate.
At this moment, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
đđŁđđđ°đđđ§đźđđđ.đ°đ¨đŚ
He Ping, Xiang Xiaoyi, and Huang Chongyi each had a trace of panic on their faces. All the Ocean Gathering Realm masters in Ye Gate had been killed. He Ping, who originally had the strength of the Late Stage of Spirit Communication Realm double heaven, had now advanced to the Middle Stage of the Spirit Communication Realm fourfold heaven; Xiang Xiaoyi originally had the strength of the Middle Stage of Spirit Communication Realm double heaven, but now his strength had advanced to the Initial Stage of Spirit Communication Realm triple heaven; Huang Chongyi, who originally only had the Initial Stage of Spirit Communication Realm double heaven, had now advanced to the Peak of Spirit Communication Realm double heaven.
With the resources and modified cultivation techniques that Ye Chenfeng left before he left, Ye Gateâs development was extremely smooth. However, who could have known that a Seven-Colored Spring would appear out of nowhere in Ye Gateâs back mountain, pushing Ye Gate to the brink of destruction.
Of course, there was more than one exit from Ye Gate, but the Great Elder and Second Elder of Tian Dao Sect had said that if they discovered any Ye Gate disciple daring to escape, they would immediately slaughter Ye Gate. With so many disciples, it was impossible for all to leave together, so the disciples could only choose to remain in Ye Gate obediently.
"He Ping, what should we do now? Although Tian Dao Sect hasnât made a move against us yet, once their Sect Master arrives here, I fear it will be difficult for anyone in Ye Gate to escape death." Xiang Xiaoyiâs tone was tinged with despair.
"Bang!"
Huang Chongyi directly punched one of the stone pillars in the great hall, his eyes bloodshot, gritting his teeth as he shouted, "Itâs really frustrating. If the Boss were here, things would be different."
Among the three, He Ping was the most calm. He shook his head and said, "Huang Chongyi, to be honest, I donât want our Boss to be here. Tian Dao Sect is a genuine sixth-grade sect, and their Sect Masterâs strength is at the Creation Realm level. When the Boss left Ye Gate, he was only in the Spirit Communication Realm. How much time has passed since then? Even if the Boss returns, Iâm afraid he would only be implicated."
Upon hearing this, Huang Chongyi and Xiang Xiaoyi both lowered their heads. Although they didnât want to admit it, they had to concede that He Ping was right. Just as the atmosphere in the hall became silent again, Ye Chenfengâs voice echoed inside: "What? Do the three of you have so little confidence in me?"
He Ping, Xiang Xiaoyi, and Huang Chongyi, upon seeing the figure entering the hall, stood stunned for two seconds before shouting in unison, "Boss?"
Ye Chenfeng walked up to He Ping and the others, patting them on the shoulders and saying, "He Ping, the three of you have worked hard! I have roughly understood what has happened in Ye Gate now."
When Ye Chenfeng mentioned Ye Gate, He Ping immediately snapped back from his excitement and said, "Boss, you shouldnât have come back. The Sect Master of Tian Dao Sect is expected to arrive today. Since weâre all doomed anyway, you should find a chance to leave! Weâre all willing to sacrifice ourselves for you, Boss."
"Boss, currently all the disciples in Ye Gate are only at the Spirit Communication Realm. All the Ocean Gathering Realm Elders were killed by the Great Elder and Second Elder of Tian Dao Sect. Boss, in the future, you must avenge us," Huang Chongyi said, clenching his fist tightly.
Ye Chenfeng hadnât heard about the Ocean Gathering Realm elders being killed when outside. His expression instantly turned icy. Looking at He Ping and the others, he said, "Do the three of you really have so little faith in your Boss? Since the Sect Master of Tian Dao Sect is coming today, I will patiently wait for a while!"
"The three of you, stop rambling, or donât call me Boss anymore."
Ye Chenfeng casually sat on a chair in the center of the great hall, while Elder Tianhuo stood respectfully on his left. Liang Zuoyi and Su Bingshuan stood on Ye Chenfengâs right, without any hint of worry. As long as Elder Tianhuo was around, even if Tian Dao Sect, a mere sixth-grade sect, deployed all their experts, they wouldnât be able to harm Ye Gate at all.
Though He Ping and the others were only at Spirit Communication Realm strength, they couldnât sense Elder Tianhuoâs power. They couldnât gauge Ye Chenfeng, Su Bingshuan, and Liang Zuoyiâs strengths, either. However, hearing Ye Chenfengâs firm words, they could only stand silently aside.
In He Ping and the othersâ eyes, their Boss Ye Chenfeng was too loyal. They thought Ye Chenfeng wanted to die with them. Tears welled up in their eyes, touched by their Bossâs actions.
Sitting in the chief seat, Ye Chenfeng remained silent, and the rest of the people present also held their silence.
The silent atmosphere persisted for two hours, after which four figures leisurely walked into the hall. Leading them was a rugged-looking middle-aged man â Jiang Wannian, the Sect Master of Tian Dao Sect, whose strength was at the Peak of Creation Realm triple heaven level.
Beside Jiang Wannian stood a young man, resembling him somewhat, who was Jiang Wannianâs son, Jiang Taoming, with the strength of the Initial Stage of Ocean Gathering Realm fivefold heaven.
Following Jiang Wannian and Jiang Taoming were two old men, the Great Elder and Second Elder of Tian Dao Sect, tasked with guarding Ye Gateâs main entrance.
Jiang Taoming glared malevolently at Ye Chenfeng, seated in the chief position, already informed of Ye Gateâs Sect Masterâs return by the Great and Second Elders. He shouted, "Brat, do you have the right to sit before us? Get up immediately!"
The Sect Master of Tian Dao Sect, Jiang Wannian, had sensed the strength of Ye Chenfeng and the others in turn, finding he couldnât discern Elder Tianhuoâs power but knowing Elder Tianhuo was Ye Chenfengâs disciple. He didnât believe a disciple of a Divine Thought Realm Level 1 powerhouse could be formidable.
Despite Jiang Taomingâs words, Ye Chenfeng remained unmoved in his seat. Without his command, Elder Tianhuo continued standing respectfully beside him.
"Brat, are you deaf? How dare you put on airs before us? Youâre just the Sect Master of a sect that canât make it to the table. Before us, youâre nothing," Jiang Taoming angrily cursed, very displeased.
The Great Elder of Tian Dao Sect also addressed Ye Chenfeng, saying, "Kid, quickly stand up and pay respect to our Sect Master. If youâre sensible, we might agree to let Ye Gate merge into our Tian Dao Sect."
"Boy, donât think youâre impressive just because youâre the Sect Master of a small sect. This is your only chance to live now," Tian Dao Sectâs Second Elder also shouted.
Sitting on the chair, Ye Chenfeng said to Tian Dao Sectâs Sect Master Jiang Wannian, "If you can defeat my disciple, then I will agree to merge Ye Gate into Tian Dao Sect."
"Tianhuo, go and entertain them! And send them off to Yamaâs Palace to report."
Elder Tianhuo immediately responded, "Yes, Master."
Seeing Elder Tianhuo step forward, Jiang Taoming was amused, coldly laughing, "Brat, are you out of your mind? Letting your disciple battle my father, who is a master at the Peak of Creation Realm triple heaven?"
"Sect Master, it appears we must kill this boy and his disciple to smoothly take over Ye Gate," Tian Dao Sectâs Great Elder said.
Jiang Wannian nodded earnestly, saying, "Very well, then I will exercise a bit."
Pointing at Ye Chenfeng, Jiang Wannian continued, "However, once I take action, your disciple must die, and so must you. Are you mentally prepared?"
"Tianhuo, theyâre really too noisy," Ye Chenfeng said indifferently.
As Ye Chenfengâs words fell, Elder Tianhuo, who had just taken two steps, unleashed his internal aura, allowing the Peak of Reincarnation Realm triple heaven aura to burst forth from his body. With a light wave of his sleeve towards Jiang Taoming, an overwhelming energy surged toward him.
Jiang Taoming, possessing only Ocean Gathering Realm strength, was no match for a Reincarnation Realm expert. With a resounding "bang," his body turned into a bloody mist in mid-air.
The two elders accompanying Jiang Wannian and Jiang Taoming were also dumbstruck by Elder Tianhuoâs aura. Before the might of a Reincarnation Realm master, they were powerless.
However, Elder Tianhuo had no intention of stopping. His figure moved towards the stupefied Jiang Wannian and the others in continuation of his onslaught.
