Chapter 670: I’ll Take All of You At Once

“Incredible!”

“As expected of senior brother Jiang! Kill him!”

It was said that one does not need to be an expert to recognize an expert’s mastery. The crowd cheered loudly as they waited with bated breath for Jiang Youhu to crush Joyless Ye like an ant.

Unfortunately, their cheers quickly ceased, and their eyes widened into saucers as if someone had caught them by their neck. In response to Jiang Youhu’s attack, Ye Qing simply flicked his fingers at the claw. Just like that, what looked like an attack that could sunder heaven and earth crumbled into pieces as if it was made of paper.

Not only that, Ye Qing’s finger also struck Jiang Youhu’s fingers and twisted them in all sorts of undesirable fashions. His sleeve exploding into shreds, Jiang Youhu let out a muffled grunt as he was sent flying all the way back into a stele. The stele shattered under the impact, and Jiang Youhu hit the ground with a dull thud. His breathing was shallow, and he was barely conscious.

For a time, the scene was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. No one could believe that the powerful Jiang Youhu had failed to take even one hit from the intruder.

Not only that, Joyless Ye should be tired after overcoming the Dragonscaling Road and the Dragon Nursing Gorge in a row, so how was he still so powerful?

In fact, a lot of people knew that Jiang Youhu was trying to take advantage of Joyless Ye’s fatigue and get lucky. But not only did his gambit fail, Joyless Ye had mopped the floor with his face!

“Ah, shit. Is there anyone else who wants to duel me? That one was way too weak,” Ye Qing called out after sending Jiang Youhu flying with a flick of the finger. His expression was dripping with disdain and he shook his finger a little.

“You...!”

“He’s going too far! Too far!” Findd new stories on nov/e(l)bin(.)com

“The arrogance! The arrogance!”

For a time, everyone was glaring at Ye Qing with furious, bloodshot eyes.

“Chi Lie of Flying Dragon Hall requests a duel!”

A man with fiery red hair declared while leaping into the air. Having witnessed Jiang Youhu’s terrible defeat from the start until the end, Chi Lie recognized just how strong Ye Qing was and did not foolishly get close to the man like his fellow disciple. Instead, he opted to defeat him from range.

Hovering in the sky like a divine dragon, he summoned what looked like rain clouds and started a rain. However, the rain droplets were crimson in color and boiling hot. The sky was also covered by a crimson fog that, unlike an ordinary rain mist, was suffocatingly hot and difficult to breathe in. As if that wasn’t enough, inhaling the steam would make the victim feel like their body was burning on the inside and suffocate them even more.

“Summon Rain”

Ye Qing looked up while covering his forehead with one head. He seemed to be searching for Chi Lie, but couldn’t quite open his eyes because of the scalding steam[1]. A long and futile search later, when it looked like the crimson steam and rain was about to envelop Ye Qing, he abruptly reached forward half an inch using the palm he was covering his forehead with and made a clenching motion.

BOOM!

It was as if he was holding a thunderclap between his fingers. The air within tens of meters of him abruptly exploded like a gigantic, invisible hand had squeezed it until it burst, and the spectators fell backward feeling dizzy and painful in the ears. The weaker ones straight up bled from all orifices and blacked out just like that.

“Is that all Dragonrider Mountain has to offer?”

Standing at the center, Ye Qing looked down at the fallen disciples and smirked.

“You...!”

Not everyone had lost their fighting spirit, but try as they might, but they could not lift even a finger. Even speaking became a difficult task that demanded their full concentration. It was because Ye Qing’s counterattack had not only toppled them, but also scattered their internal forces and energies. Naturally, they could not muster the strength to pilot their body.

“You can’t even speak? I wanted to call you impotent, but I think even that insult is an understatement.”

Ye Qing shook his head regretfully. “No wonder they say that every generation of Dragonrider Mountain is worse than the last. I cannot help but feel sad on behalf of Trueman Dragonrider.”

It was at this moment a voice spoke up, “You should stop while you’re ahead, young man. Whatever happens to Dragonrider Mountain, an outsider has no right to remark about our private matters.”

The voice had appeared out of seemingly nowhere. It sounded completely emotionless and indifferent.

“Oh my god, the tortoise is finally squeaking. And here I thought you’re going to hide in your shells until the end of time!”

Ye Qing chuckled. “So, have you gotten my measure yet? You know what, I’m going to save you the trouble and just tell you myself. I’m a wandering nobody with no sect or master to call to his name. All I have is a couple of good friends and a jar of dirty wine. There you go!”

“Your arrogance is truly unbecoming, young man.” Now the voice sounded a little angry, though it was impossible to say if it was because they could not stand Ye Qing’s insult, or they were embarrassed because Ye Qing had figured out their ploy.

“As you say, I’m a young man. What am I if not arrogant and egotistical?” Ye Qing laughed. “Anyway, why are you still hiding in your hole and doing nothing? I literally just told you I’m a nobody that you can take out with no consequences whatsoever. If even this isn’t enough to make you face me personally, then what will?”

When he waited for a moment and received no response, Ye Qing continued, “I see that you are as patient as a tortoise as well, senior. You should have named yourself Divine Tortoise Mountain instead of Dragonrider Mountain.”

“You don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, arrogant child. I was going to give you a chance to turn back and change your ways on account of your youth, but it seems that nothing will get through your thick skull besides reality. In that case, I shall fulfill your desire.”

The voice said indifferently, “However, I am the host, and you the guest. I see no reason to debase myself over your demands. Come challenge the Dragon Subjugating Platform. If you succeed, then you will see me naturally. If you dare, of course.”

“Hah! I stomped your Dragonscaling Road to the ground and toyed with your Dragon Nursing Gorge with one hand a while ago. What makes you think I’m going to be intimidated by your Dragon Subjugating Platform?” Ye Qing declared with a level of confidence and command that would accept no rebuttal.

“You are bold if nothing else. Come then. Let’s see if your mouth can remain this sharp once you have set foot on the platform.” The voice declared, “Come forth!”

Ye Qing smirked, clasped his hands behind his back, and continued onward.

1. Just a reminder, but heat is the second last thing Ye Qing is afraid of lol. ☜
