The twelfth brother's eyes became cold. Rather than saying this was a ridicule, it was better to say that this was a form of contempt and provocation.
Clang!
The twelfth brother's spine made a sound as a demonic blade rushed out. Using his body as a scabbard, it nurtured a blood-colored blade. The cold air was oppressive as the blade radiance cut through the sky.
The street immediately quieted down to the point where even a pin drop could be heard. Everyone stopped and looked over.
It had to be said that the thirteen steeds were too powerful. Even the twelfth brother, who was ranked at the bottom, displayed a frightening battle aura.
The smile on Ye Fan's face disappeared as he looked at him coldly without a trace of killing intent. However, there was an intimidating aura.
"Twelfth brother, what are you doing? I originally asked you to invite brother Ye out of good intentions, but why are you always so unruly? It was clearly good intentions, but in the end, it turned into conflict."
On the back of the Azure Dragon, the man covered from head to toe in azure gold armor spoke. As the second in command of the thirteen steeds, he possessed a dignity that could not be offended. The twelfth brother's expression became sluggish as the blood-colored blade slowly disappeared into his body.
"I'm sorry, brother Ye. I originally wanted to invite you for a drink to dissolve the unhappiness from before, but I never thought that the misunderstanding would deepen. Since you have an appointment with a beautiful woman, we won't disturb you any longer." The second in command of the thirteen steeds said. His eyes contained a strange power. There was no distinction between the white of his eyes and the pupil of his eyes. The azure light was frightening and resplendent, as if he was the reincarnation of a demonic god.
With that, without waiting for Ye Fan's reply, the leaders turned their mounts around and left while tearing through the sky. Everyone dodged out of the way.
The divine steeds at the bottom coldly glanced at Ye Fan a few times. Their faces were expressionless as they also rode away on their beasts. Their battle aura surged.
"Brother Ye's name shakes the number one city of the human race. Even the thirteen steeds of Heaven Wasteland had to give way. Truly admirable." Feather Immortal had a faint smile on her bright and beautiful face. Her pure white feather clothes fluttered in the wind. Her hair was as smooth as silk, and her body was slender and soft. She looked as elegant as a fairy.
Just like her name, Feather Immortal was like an immortal who had mistakenly descended to the mortal world. She had a divine appearance and an otherworldly temperament. This was a quick-witted and beautiful woman.
"Is Miss Feather making fun of me? If these people don't make trouble now, it will be more troublesome. I would rather they had clashed earlier." Ye Fan shook his head.
Yu Xian smiled and said, "With Brother Ye's strength, there won't be any trouble."
"There's a small pub up ahead. Let's go there. It looks very peaceful," Rui Wei said.
This was an old wine shop. It was really small, but the fragrance of wine could be smelled from far away. It was located at the end of a very inconspicuous alley.
The courtyard was quite elegant. There were more than ten peach trees planted here, and it was impossible to tell the season here. Every tree was pink, and the fragrance of the flowers was refreshing.
"Not bad." Ye Fan nodded. This place was much better than those noisy and bustling taverns. It was very peaceful and suitable for small drinks.
There were only a few guests in the courtyard, scattered among the ancient peach trees. A pot of aged wine, a few plates of side dishes, and they were chatting leisurely.
They sat down. An old man walked up and quickly wiped the table. In reality, it was already very clean. The tables and chairs were quite old, and after being wiped for many years, they had even developed a luster.
A pot of aged wine and a few special side dishes were quickly brought up. The three of them drank lightly, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. They talked about their experiences on Saint Fall Island.
Ye Fan fought more than twenty people alone and killed them all. This made Rui Wei sigh. This kind of battle record was very illusory to him.
Yu Xian smiled and spoke. In the end, her expression became solemn. She mentioned the demon that swallowed cultivators, believing that it was definitely a huge problem. Even now, she still didn't know his identity.
"There really was such a person who entered the first region and fought with Mu Guanghan?" Rui Wei revealed a look of shock.
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. A demonic light covered the sun, and endless killing radiance burst forth in the first region." Yu Xian nodded.
"Some people think that it was Tuoba Yu from the Human King Ancient Star Domain. Could the rumors be true?" Rui Wei said.
"It wasn't him, because he was also watching the battle." Yu Xian shook her head.
"Do you have any clues?" Ye Fan asked.
Yu Xian nodded. She learned of a terrifying fact. That person retreated in the end, actually crossing seventeen realms before disappearing.
"How is this possible? Just how heavy of a shackle is that? Is there such a powerful person?" Rui Wei couldn't help but cry out.
Ye Fan was also moved. "Were his movements affected?"
Yu Xian shook her head. Her expression was serious as she said, "His speed was extremely fast. Otherwise, Mu Guanghan wouldn't have let him go. He lost track of him after crossing six realms. The people from other regions witnessed this."
"This is just too inconceivable." Rui Wei was a bit absent-minded. She felt that this was a bit unreal.
Yu Xian said, "If he isn't powerful to the extreme, then he has a supreme secret artifact in his hands that can ignore the restrictions of the trial grounds. No matter which situation it is, it is extremely terrifying. It is a terrifying threat to anyone."
It was also because of this that she came to find Ye Fan. She didn't hide anything, and her objective was clear. She wanted to form an alliance with him.
And according to Yu Xian's speculation, this demon was very likely to be Killing Saint. He had all kinds of forbidden divine abilities and was truly the most dangerous person.
They chatted while drinking. Naturally, they talked about the Ancient Star Domain. Ye Fan was very concerned about the Yuhua Planet because there was a Yuhua God Dynasty in the Big Dipper.
"There was a great migration on the Yuhua Planet hundreds of thousands of years ago …" Yu Xian talked about some ancient events.
This was an extremely prosperous ancient planet. All Sages rose together and all sects flourished together. It was hard to describe how glorious it was.
About 300,000 years ago, a brilliant genius appeared. He came from the outer realm and was said to be a descendant of the old subordinates of the Ancient Heaven. He stirred up endless storms on the Yuhua Planet and established a powerful god dynasty before he passed away in his later years.
Tens of thousands of years later, a world-shaking genius descended on this god dynasty and became an emperor. Then, he brought this god dynasty with him and disappeared into the starry sky.
"The old subordinates of the Ancient Heaven …" Ye Fan was quite shocked.
The broken green cauldron was in the hands of the old subordinates of the Celestial Court. The Yuhua God Dynasty was a force that they built. Dying in the Big Dipper … didn't mean that it was over.
"Brother Ye, where are you from?" Yu Xian moistened her red lips with wine and asked with a smile.
"Big Dipper." Ye Fan had nothing to hide. He chose to step on this path without fear. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come.
"Emperor Burial Star!" Yu Xian cried out in surprise.
It was clear that this ancient star domain had once shocked the universe. Many people of the ancient lands remembered it in their hearts. Even now, they still cried out in surprise when they mentioned it.
"That is really a star where heroes are buried. It is said that the path to immortality will also open there." Light swirled in Yu Xian's eyes.
She warned Ye Fan that it was best not to reveal it because there would definitely be a great enemy ahead. It was said that in the glorious era of the Emperor Burial Star, there had been old enemies with many ancient star domains.
The starlight was dim, making people feel a kind of oppressive atmosphere. There was chaos in the morning. Two cultivators were killed in the middle of the night. They were only discovered now.
A haze appeared in many people's hearts. They felt a sense of foreboding.
Ye Fan walked on the streets and discovered that all of the soldiers had been mobilized. They were carefully investigating, almost to the point of martial law, but they still didn't find anything.
When it was late at night again, a mournful scream sounded. It was actually a seed level expert who had entered the sage realm, yet he suffered a sneak attack this night.
All of the soldiers hiding in the dark rushed over. At the same time, a few powerful cultivators also hurried over to provide support.
However, in the next second, another scream was heard from another direction. Another powerhouse had fallen.
Ye Fan suddenly stood up. Was this the work of a single person?
That night, four tragedies happened in succession. Four cultivators were killed, dying violent deaths.
The next day, the great commander of the human race's number one city arrived at an ancient land. He knelt down on one knee and said, "Guide envoy, please take action. I believe you can find the true culprit."
An indistinct figure appeared on top of a praying mat. It calmly said, "I have already warned a few ancient families in the city not to take action. As for the internal assassinations of the trial takers … it can also be considered a type of test."
"What? You don't care?" The great commander revealed a shocked expression.
"After taking this path, if you are assassinated, you can only be considered a failure." The indistinct figure disappeared, and there was no one left on the praying mat.
The atmosphere in the city was tense. Many people felt that it was not just the Killing Saint. There were also some people with ulterior motives who had taken action. Otherwise, how could four people die in one night?
"Heh, did you guys feel it? The guide envoy is indulging in this kind of behavior. This is a heaven-sent opportunity. Let's move out together tonight and kill that person called Ye Fan!" The twelfth of the Thirteen Steeds of Heavenly Wasteland said coldly.
The thirteenth brother echoed and strongly agreed.
A pair of cold eyes looked over, and the two immediately felt a chill from head to toe. The leader of the Thirteen Steeds of Heavenly Wasteland had black hair draped over his shoulders. His upper body was bare, and his muscles were like dragons. They flickered with divine splendor and possessed a kind of wild power.
A single glance from him was enough to make the twelfth and thirteenth brothers keep quiet out of fear. They did not dare to say anything else.
Meanwhile, the number two figure of the Thirteen Steeds of Heavenly Wasteland revealed a cruel smile. "Do you think you can kill him without a sound?"
The two were also afraid of him and did not say anything.
"If we can't kill him in an instant, the consequences will be unthinkable. If we take the blame for that strange Killing Saint, we will die without a burial ground." The number two figure of the Thirteen Steeds said coldly.
Then, he laughed cruelly and said, "Why don't we do it instead!"
"What do you mean?" The thirteenth brother asked with a trace of reverence and puzzlement.
"You guys go and find trouble with him, but do not fight him. Just provoke him with a few words …" The number two figure instructed.
The atmosphere in the city was oppressive. Many cultivators felt uneasy. People died every night, and if this continued, it would definitely become a big problem.
Ancient beasts galloped and the streets shook. Several savage beasts rushed past and almost collided with Ye Fan.
"Be careful, don't get killed!"
"Wait for death to descend at night!"
Several savage beasts rushed past and muttered in a domineering manner.
Ye Fan looked coldly at the people of the Thirteen Steeds of Heaven Wasteland. Today, he was provoked twice, and both times were by their people. However, the other party cowered in the end.
Deep into the night, an ominous scene enveloped the city. After two miserable cries sounded in the distance, a black figure appeared in Ye Fan's room and directly dragged him into a small void world.
This was a painting scroll held in the hands of a powerful saint. He was imprisoned inside and then mercilessly attacked.
Boom!
However, in the end, it was Ye Fan who shattered the ancient scroll and forced his way out. He killed this person and imprisoned his primordial spirit so that he could see his identity.
"It's a member of an ancient family in the city …" He was startled.
Then, he observed his sea of consciousness and quickly discovered what was going on. Someone secretly delivered an extremely rare and precious divine refinement material to their family. It was priceless.
Unfortunately, they could only refine half a magical artifact. The person who secretly delivered the divine material did not show himself and only left behind a message. If they could kill Ye Fan, they could deliver the other half of the divine material.
"Oh, this is a family that isn't too clean. Many of the residents in the city know about it and were thus chosen to assassinate me …"
Ye Fan naturally thought of the Thirteen Steeds of Heaven Wasteland and revealed a mocking smile.
In terms of assassination techniques, how many people could compare to him? It was purely displaying one's slight skill before an expert. The secret killing techniques of the Celestial Court were absolutely world-shocking.
In that instant, he thought of something again and produced another him. Very soon, he dispersed into strands of clear air and drifted into the starry sky.
In another residence, the twelfth and thirteenth brothers of the Thirteen Steeds of Heaven Wasteland had cold eyes and revealed killing intent as they quietly waited for action.
Moreover, several seed-level characters were invited over to drink. They were inside a formation that isolated their auras from the outside world. At the same time, several soldiers were seated.
