When the man from the Demon Realm saw Ye Zheng arrive, he hurriedlyclimbed to his feet and pointed at Ning Yechen angrily. "Lord Ye Zheng,
he's the one who killed our man and offended the Demon Realm!"
"Useless! You couldn't even take care of an ant!" Ye Zheng reprimanded
the man on the ground and kicked him aside. Then he looked disdainfully
at Ning Yechen.
To him, the people of the Mortal Realm were just like ants he could
crush anytime he wanted.
"Since you've offended the Demon Realm, pay with your life!" Ye Zheng
did not want to waste time. A glimmering light quickly gathered in his
mouth!
"Die, you mere mortal!
"Demonic Annihilation!"
With his shout, light shot out from his mouth!
Intense spiritual energy caused the atmosphere to contort and the earth
to rumble. The technique was so powerful that it felt as though it could
destroy anything in its path!
This attack was enough to raze a city effortlessly!
The beam of light instantly swallowed up Ning Yechen.
Ye Zheng snorted in contempt, certain that Ning Yechen must have
perished in the light.
Just as Ye Zheng was about to turn and leave, he saw his subordinate
behind him staring in shock.
It was as if the subordinate had seen a ghost.
Ye Zheng frowned and turned back to look.
In the next second, the same expression as his subordinate's appeared
on Ye Zheng's face.
After taking on Demonic Annihilation, Ning Yechen was standing in the
air completely unscathed!
Not even his clothes were damaged, let alone being injured!
How is this possible? Ye Zheng's eyes widened in disbelief.
It was the strongest attack he could use under the laws of the Mortal
Realm!
Even though he was restricted by the divine laws of the Mortal Realm, it
had still been an all-out attack with the strength of the Heavenly
Mortal realm!
"Your surname is Ye, and you know how to use Demonic Annihilation... Are
you from the Demon Realm's 1^st^ Legion? Are you from the Ye family?"
Ning Yechen asked calmly while casually straightening his clothes that
had gotten messed up from the wind.
"That's right! I am a commander of the Demon Realm's 1^st^ Legion, Ye
Zheng!" Ye Zheng raised his head proudly.
As a commander, his rank was quite high in the Demon Realm!
He was able to lead a 10,000-man legion!
Ning Yechen asked mildly, "Is Ye Tianshen still in charge as the demonic
general?"
"Yes," Ye Zheng answered without a second thought.
"Did he tell you to come?" Ning Yechen's eyes narrowed.
If Ye Tianshen was behind this, Ning Yechen would not let him off!
"It was not Lord Ye Tianshen who gave the order. It was... Huh? Hang on!
Why am I answering your question?" Ye Zheng instinctively wanted to
answer when he suddenly caught on to his actions. Why am I answering
this nobody? Judging from his words, he knows the Demon Realm very well!
He even knows that I'm from the 1^st^ Legion!
"Who are you? How dare you get me to answer your questions? When you
defeat me, we'll talk!"
Even though he did not understand the reason Ning Yechen survived his
technique, Ye Zheng was certain that Ning Yechen must have done
something to dodge it.
This time, he would take him down personally. He instantly appeared in
front of Ning Yechen, pulled out his machete from his back, and hacked
at Ning Yechen.
Strong sword energy surged from the air to the ground, causing a wide
sword ditch to appear on the ground!
However, the scene of cutting Ning Yechen in half did not happen.
Despite the powerful attack, Ning Yechen held the sword tightly with his
fingers!
Ning Yechen had blocked Ye Zheng's all-out attack with just two
fingers!
Ye Zheng opened his eyes in astonishment. Has it been too long since
I've visited the Mortal Realm? How can someone so powerful be here?
"Are you done? Then it's my turn." Ning Yechen pressed his fingers
gently, and a crisp snap came. The machete in Ye Zheng's hand was
broken.
Ye Zheng's face was full of disbelief as he stared at his broken
machete.
Lord Ye Tianshen had personally given him this heavenly weapon, but it
was broken!
Perhaps Lord Ye Tianshen gave him a fake.
For a moment, Ye Zheng suspected that the machete in his hand was not an
authentic heavenly weapon.
Otherwise, considering the strength of a heavenly weapon, it was
impossible for someone to effortlessly break it by hand!
Ning Yechen raised his palm at Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng quickly made a defensive stance.
In his heart, even though he was astonished by Ning Yechen's abilities,
he was not too worried.
In the Mortal Realm, cultivators were restricted by the divine laws and
could not use abilities beyond the Heavenly Immortal realm.
It was the same for someone in the Heavenly King realm like him.
The man before him could only use abilities up to the Heavenly Immortal
realm just like him.
Even if he could not do anything to him, the same applied vice versa!
Ye Zheng was very confident.
However, he quickly discovered something was amiss!
An invisible force started twisting his body!
The invisible force was very powerful. Even though he was using all his
strength, he was unable to contend against it!
His limbs made a popping sound as they got twisted and his bones broke.
His demonic armor completely gave way!
The excruciating pain left Ye Zheng howling uncontrollably.
Ever since he entered the Heavenly King realm and became a 10,000-man
commander in the Demon Realm, he had never felt so terrified in his
life!
The man before him was exerting strength far beyond what people at the
Heavenly Immortal realm should be able to!
The divine laws were useless against him!
This made no sense at all!
It was completely unheard of that anyone could defy the divine laws!
"Tell me. Who sent you?" Ning Yechen asked coldly as he slowly flew over
to Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng hesitated about whether to tell the truth, but his body became
increasingly contorted. "I-I don't know who it is! That person came to
ask me to do something for him. He wanted me to go to the Mortal Realm
to kill a woman and take her child from her!
"That person promised to give me a special medicine to break through to
the Heavenly Sovereign realm, so I agreed. I don't know anything else!"
Ye Zheng finally realized how frightening Ning Yechen was.
This strength far exceeded what a mere Heavenly King realm cultivator
could withstand!
Owing to the intense pain from his twisted body and his fear of Ning
Yechen, Ye Zheng frantically shouted in answer.
Hearing this, Ning Yechen put down his hand and stopped twisting Ye
Zheng.
He did not think Ye Zheng would dare to lie to him.
Seeing that Ye Zheng was his former subordinate's man, he would spare
Ye Zheng this time.
Unfortunately, he was unable to get any more information.
The other party was very cautious and did not show his face.
Ning Yechen frowned in annoyance and said to Ye Zheng, "Go back to the
Demon Realm. If you ever show your face in front of me again, you will Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴøᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
disappear forever! No one from the Demon Realm will be able to save
you!"
With that, Ning Yechen turned to go back to Luo Ruying, but a deep, cold
voice sounded behind him.
"You certainly talk big!"
