“What exactly did you do?”
“Ye Liangchen” gritted his teeth and said.
Both the spatial divine power and the spatial array formation should only be available to experts above the Saint realm. How could there be a Saint Stage expert in the Xuanyi Mountain Sect?
Unless this world had gone crazy!
After all, even “Ye Liangchen” himself was only at the Legendary Stage when he was alive.
“Why should I tell you?”
Bai Ye sneered.
“…”
“Hmph, my disciple only injured a piece of trash. Why must you kill him?”
Taking a deep breath, ‘Ye Liangchen’ attempted to change the topic to resolve this battle.
It couldn’t be helped. He had already consumed more than half of his spirit energy when he had executed the secret technique just now. If he were to fight two more Heaven Stage experts, even he wouldn’t have any chance of winning.
Originally, “Ye Liangchen” thought that as long as he gave in, Bai Ye would definitely give him a way out and then naturally sit down and shake hands.
After all, Lin Xiu was only a Profound Stage disciple, and there was utterly no need for him to offend a Heaven Stage expert because of him.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ye said fiercely, “Trash? I think you’re the one who’s trash!”
“Ye Liangchen” was stunned and actually forgot to refute for a moment. He had never imagined that Bai Ye would say something like this.
“Since you’ve entered our Xuanyi Mountain Sect, then you’re a disciple of our sect. No matter who it is who injures our disciples, they will have to pay the price. Even the heavenly gods are no exception!”
Bai Ye’s voice was like thunder in spring, piercing through gold and splitting stone. It spread throughout the entire square in a majestic manner.
All the disciples were extremely touched when they heard this, and they all straightened their chests and felt proud of themselves for being disciples of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. Lin Xiu even left behind two streams of tears as he shouted loudly, “Thank you, Sect Master, for upholding justice for your disciple!”
“Thank you, Sect Master!”
Everyone cheered.
“Sect Master’s divine might is unparalleled in this world!”
“Sect Master’s divine might is unparalleled in this world!”
“…”
Seeing this, Qin Jue couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. Bai Ye was indeed more suitable for a position like the sect master’s. If it were him, he would at most just slap Ye Liangchen to death.
From the looks of it, Bai Ye seemed more like the main character. It was a pity that his strength was a little lacking.
Actually, Bai Ye’s thoughts were very simple. Even though “Ye Liangchen” was a Heaven Stage expert, it wasn’t difficult to discern from his attitude just now that he had only taken the Xuanyi Mountain Sect to be a stepping stone. Moreover, he even said that he would take revenge for what had happened today. Even if Bai Ye was an idiot, he knew what the outcome would be if he let Ye Liangchen go.
Moreover, Bai Ye had heard some strange stories from Qin Jue before, and was familiar with such a plot.
Punishing Ye Liangchen was only an excuse. Even if he was willing to cripple his cultivation and stay in the cave for three months, Bai Ye would still make him disappear from this world without a trace.
Bai Ye did not think of himself as a saint. He was the sect master of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. His first priority was to ensure the safety of the sect. It was naturally best if he could eliminate such a potential threat in advance.
“Don’t think that I’m really afraid of you!”
With a cold snort, ‘Ye Liangchen’ took out a medicinal pill from his storage ring and consumed it. He actually forcefully increased his spirit energy and was prepared to gamble with his life.
Seeing this, Bai Ye’s expression was rather grave. If “Ye Liangchen” were to really go all out, then it would probably be quite troublesome.
Just as Bai Ye was about to evacuate the students below and have a good fight with Ye Liangchen, an incomparable force suddenly appeared above their heads!
In an instant, wind and clouds surged within a 50-kilometer radius as spirit energy surged.
Everyone looked up and saw a huge spirit energy handprint descending from the sky. At the other end of the handprint was Qin Jue, who was sitting indifferently on the high platform.
Almost at the instant the spirit energy handprint appeared, Ye Liangchen’s expression changed drastically. However, before he could react, the spirit energy handprint had already descended!
There was no earth-shattering commotion, nor was there any intense resistance. It was as if the air had stopped as the spirit energy handprint silently passed through Ye Liangchen and slowly dissipated like starlight.
“This… Impossible…”
“Ye Liangchen” muttered to himself, his eyes rapidly dimming until they lost their luster.
Pfft.
In the next moment, like the handprint of spirit energy, Ye Liangchen transformed into specks of light that dissipated with the wind.
Everyone was shocked!
Poor Ye Liangchen. He probably didn’t even understand what was going on until he was about to die. After all, he didn’t have control over his body until just now.
“Is… he dead?”
After a long while, a disciple said bitterly.
That was a Heaven Stage cultivator, yet he was instantly killed?
“So Uncle-Grandmaster is that powerful.”
Another disciple exclaimed.
The new disciples who had experienced the Black Forest incident immediately worshiped Qin Jue even more. He could even kill a Heaven Stage cultivator in an instant. They couldn’t help but wonder what realm he was at.
“Sigh, seriously. I haven’t even activated my cultivation technique. Why did you intervene?”
Bai Ye said unhappily, “If I were to circulate my energy, I would have definitely finished him in three moves.”
Qin Jue :”…”
“Ye Liangchen has infiltrated our sect for three years with wicked intentions. He even injured one of our sect’s disciples during the Mountain Gate Tournament and refused to be punished. His crimes are unforgivable and he deserves to have been killed on the spot.”
First Elder raised his voice and announced the result of this matter.
At this moment, Qin Jue suddenly grabbed with his hand. The place where Ye Liangchen died suddenly lit up and instantly fell into Qin Jue’s hand.
“I almost let you run away.”
Qin Jue said with interest.
“Ahhh! Let go of me!”
The light struggled with all its might, but it was useless. Moreover, an old figure the size of a fist was faintly visible within the light. It was precisely the “grandpa” who had inhabited Ye Liangchen’s body.
When the spirit energy handprint fell just now, he had actually chosen to abandon Ye Liangchen’s body and flee into the void. If Qin Jue hadn’t noticed in time, the grandpa probably would have been able to run away.
“It would appear that I have overestimated you all.”
Shaking his head, Qin Jue sighed.
Originally, he thought that he had met an undermined main character, but he did not expect for him to have been a villain.
In fact, if it weren’t for Qin Jue, Ye Liangchen would most likely have been able to escape. Moreover, many years later, he would probably return with a large group of experts and destroy the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. Unfortunately, he had encountered Qin Jue, a true expert.
To put it simply, how could one defeat an expert in a higher realm?
“Let go of me! I can give you anything. I was a Legendary Stage expert when I was alive…”
The old figure in the light begged bitterly, no longer having the insufferably arrogant appearance from before. However, before he could finish speaking, Qin Jue clenched his fist and crushed him!
“Wait!”
At this time, Bai Ye’s voice sounded, as if he wanted to stop Qin Jue.
Seeing that the light was destroyed, Bai Ye had a regretful expression. “That was the Essence Soul of a Legendary Stage expert. If it’s used to refine pills, it will definitely work twice as well with half the effort.”
Qin Jue: “???”
“Didn’t you say that you’re not going to refine pills anymore?”
“Did I? When did I say that?”
Bai Ye pretended to be at a loss.
Not far away, Zhang Jichen and Wu Ying shivered and revealed frightened expressions.
