People from the Divine Mountains
Jiao Qi cupped his fists and lowered his head, his expression grim. Seven people stood by his and Meng Huairong's sides. They were none other than the clan heads Gao Xiong had contacted.
The clan heads had all been captured, and a million sky immortals had been executed.
His words were like a clap of thunder that reverberated through the hall. Gao Xiong's pupils constricted, and the members of Upheaval, as well as Lil 'One and the others, were utterly astonished.
How long had it been?
Less than an hour had passed since Ye Zichen entered the hall and Jiao Qi and the other clan heads had arrived to report the news of the death of a million sky immortals.
That was a million sky immortals and above, and more than twenty percent of them were immortal kings.
Such a huge team had actually been completely annihilated in less than an hour. No matter how one listened to it, this was an impossible task.
Gao Xiong was no longer as calm as before. He focused his gaze and spread his immortal awareness outwards.
Ye Zichen sensed this, but didn't stop him. Instead, he let him.
"....."
He saw it!
All he saw was a sea of blood. The majestic army of millions of sky immortals had been utterly routed.
In front of them were four armies of a thousand strong. They'd landed in four corners of Raging Flame City, harvesting the immortals' lives as if they were harvesting wheat.
Perhaps they'd truly been scared out of their wits, but the surviving immortals put down their weapons and knelt in front of the city gates in surrender.
At that moment, Gao Xiong's immortal awareness was forcibly severed.
"Have you seen enough?"
As he stared in shock, he heard Ye Zichen's calm voice. When he looked up, he saw Ye Zichen smiling and tapping his fingers on his chair.
Obviously, Ye Zichen was the one who'd severed his immortal awareness.
Gao Xiong was a peak immortal king. Given his strength, he could've condensed his sea long ago and become a supreme.
However, for the sake of the Gao Family, he'd done his utmost to restrain his strength and compress his immortal energy. This constant compression made him stronger and stronger. Although he wasn't a supreme yet, he was already stronger than one.
Furthermore, his immortal awareness had long since surpassed the limits of an immortal king.
If Ye Zichen could destroy his immortal awareness with a snap of his fingers, just how strong was he? Then there was Meng Huairong and Jiao Qi, who were kneeling on one knee. They looked like Ye Zichen's subordinates, but he couldn't see through them either.
"You think you can deal with Upheaval with just that? You're dreaming."
Ye Zichen smiled mockingly at Gao Xiong, then got down from his chair.
Ayi immediately unsheathed his blade and shielded Gao Xiong behind him. However, the instant he drew his sword, everyone in the hall, including the other members of Upheaval who'd been waiting outside, took out their natal spiritual treasures and surrounded Ayi and the others.
"All of you, stand down."
Wei Jie glanced coolly at the Upheaval members. Wei Jie shot them a look of his own, and they all took a few steps back. However, they remained vigilant as they stared at Ayi and the others.
"Quite loyal. Even at a time like this, he is still wholeheartedly protecting his master."
Ye Zichen's eyes brimmed with undisguisable admiration, but then he suddenly changed the topic.
"However, our little show is over. It's time to end it, Yu!"
In the blink of an eye, Ayi pressed his sword against Gao Xiong's neck.
This scene caused the people in the hall to turn pale with fright. Those from the Gao Family were even angrier.
"Ayi, are you trying to rebel?"
Ayi simply looked at them coldly. His icy gaze was utterly foreign to the Gao Family members. Then he pulled at his face with his left hand, transforming into another person.
"I'm Yu. I've always worked for Master Ye. The Ayi you speak of died a year ago. "
Yu.
Back in the Modern Realm, he'd tried to assassinate Ye Zichen but failed. Then, after Ye Zichen rescued his niece, he'd wept tears of gratitude.
Although the two of them hadn't interacted much after that, he'd always remembered Ye Zichen's kindness.
In a way, it was fate. When Ye Zichen first entered Ice Blue City, he'd coincidentally run into him. It was also around that time that Ye Zichen had placed him in the Gao Family to keep an eye on them.
Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded by Yu's display of his true identity. However, just as they were digesting this dramatic turn of events …..
"Boss, Gao Xiong is contacting the Divine Mountain!"
As Wei Jie cried out in surprise, everyone's gazes fell on him. They saw that he was holding the token imprinted with lightning in his hand.
Yu, who was wielding a sword, chopped off his hand as fast as he could, causing blood to splatter onto his body.
However …..
It was too late.
The command medallion flashed with lightning. Gao Xiong, who'd lost his left arm, laughed arrogantly.
"Die, all of you!"
Boom!
Thunder rumbled in the heavens outside the hall. It was as if someone had torn a hole in the sky, and three figures clad in lightning-patterned daoist robes stepped out of it.
The Lightning Emperor's Xiao Family's inner sect disciples!
Their appearance caused heaven and earth to pale in comparison. Every step they took seemed to shatter the entire sky.
Howling gales swept through the skies above Raging Flame City, threatening to destroy the world.
Violent lightning wreaked havoc above the city. Just as it was about to land, the Liu Family ancestor appeared in the center of the city, just as he'd done to stop Ye Zichen's wrath …..
"Barrier."
The light barrier enveloped the entire city, but this time, when the lightning raged, the light barrier shattered like a thin piece of paper, and the ancestor vomited blood as he fell to the ground.
"Ancestor."
Liu Qing rushed over with an anxious expression. City Lord Wng Lei, Wu Wenguang, and the others gave orders to their clansmen to create a barrier around the city the moment the light barrier appeared.
However …..
Even immortal kings couldn't resist it. How could they?
Lightning tore through the barrier. The three Xiao Family inner sect disciples entered the city as if they'd entered no man's land. They looked down coldly at the millions of ants below.
Under this kind of pressure, everyone in the hall revealed a look of terror.
Supremes!
All three of them were definitely supremes!
Unbeknownst to them, another seven rifts had actually appeared in the sky at this moment, and three people walked out from every single rift. When everyone looked at the seven captured clan heads, they realized that each of them had a command medallion in their hands.
A total of twenty-four supreme-level experts descended from the Divine Mountains. Upheaval's members fell silent.
However, at that moment, Ye Zichen stretched lazily. His eyes were calm as he looked up at the turbulent sky, then pursed his lips into a smile.
