Seeing Ye Wenying fall to the ground, Ye Wenchao's hair stood on end and his back was drenched in cold sweat.
Ye Wenying was an elder of the clan just like him. Moreover, in terms of cultivation and status, he was superior to Ye Wenchao.
Ye Wenying was still playing chess with Ye Wenchao a moment ago, but now he had turned into a corpse. Ye Wenchao could not help but feel sad for him.
Ye Wenchao pointed at Ye Xing with his trembling finger and said, "You … You've got guts. Without any evidence, you dared to shoot an elder of the clan. You … Do you still have any respect for the clan?"
"Without evidence?"
Ye Xing reached into his bosom and took out the cloth scroll he found on the masked assassin's body. He said, "Ye Wenying drew this personally. I found it on the assassin's body. The evidence is conclusive."
Ye Wenchao said angrily, "Even if Elder Wenying was in the wrong, as an elder of the clan, it's not up to you to decide his life and death. You have to report it to the clan and let the clan leader and other elders decide."
Ye Wenchao was also an elder of the clan. He did not want to have the same fate as Ye Wenying, being shot to death without going through the clan's trial.
Ye Wenying's fate made him feel afraid, which was why he was angry.
Ye Xing chuckled and said, "I like to judge my enemies personally. I don't need to trouble the clan."
Ye Xing then reached out to Ye Feng and said, "Give me the head. You go and return the horse first. I'll be right back."
Ye Wenying was, after all, an elder of the clan. Ye Feng saw Ye Xing kill the former with his own eyes. Although he was happy, he was also nervous.
Ye Feng threw Xiong Yang's head to Ye Xing and said, "Brother Xing, be careful."
Recently, Ye Xing had killed three powerhouses and a high level ferocious bird in a row. There was an indescribable spirit in his heart.
He took Xiong Yang's head and thought of what he had to do next. His heart was filled with anger. He let out a long whistle and rode away.
Ye Feng looked at Ye Xing's back as he left. His eyes were filled with admiration. Compared to what Ye Xing was going to do next, killing Ye Wenying was simply a trivial matter.
Ye Wenchao was still angry when he suddenly heard Ye Xing mention the heads. He couldn't help but ask Ye Feng, "Heads? Whose head is that? "
Ye Feng let out a long sigh and said, "The head of the Xiong family's elder, Xiong Yang."
"What?" Ye Wenchao's expression changed drastically.
Although Xiong Yang and Ye Wenying were both elders of their respective families, their statuses were completely different. Xiong Yang's cultivation was at the peak of Lv Six, and he was one of the strongest people below martial dao masters.
In the martial arts world of Celestial Azure City, neither Ye Wenying nor Ye Wenchao could be ranked. However, Xiong Yang was famous and ranked at the forefront.
When Ye Wenchao heard that the head in Ye Xing's hand was Xiong Yang's head, how could his expression not change? He simply couldn't believe it.
Could it be that Xiong Yang was killed by Ye Xing?
Thinking of this, Ye Wenchao's heart suddenly jumped. The difficulty of killing Xiong Yang was much higher than killing Ye Wenying.
At this moment, Ye Wenchao recalled that Ye Xing had said that he would be back soon. It was obvious that he was going to do something. What could he do with Xiong Yang's head?
"What is Ye Xing going to do?" Ye Wenchao asked in a trembling voice.
"He's going to challenge Xiong Baotian!" Ye Feng said. His voice was also trembling. It was obvious that he was extremely excited.
"What? He's going to challenge a martial dao master? "Ye Wenchao completely lost his composure as an elder of the family and directly exclaimed.
Compared to challenging Xiong Baotian, killing Ye Wenying became a trivial matter. Ye Wenchao anxiously ran to the family's main hall. He had to report this matter to the patriarch immediately.
When Ye Wenchao arrived at the family's main hall and reported this matter to the patriarch, Ye Xing, the news of Ye Wenying being killed by Ye Xing had already spread throughout the Yeh family.
When Ye Xing killed Ye Wenying, it was outside Wenying Institute. Although there were only four people present, many members of the Yeh family saw it with their own eyes. A family elder being killed by a disciple of the younger generation, this kind of big news naturally spread immediately.
Ye Wenchao was very pleased that the younger generation of the family had produced a student from the Purple Mountain Academy's Gifted Class. When he heard Ye Wenchao say that Ye Xing had killed Ye Wenying because Ye Wenying had hired an assassin to kill him, although he felt that Ye Xing's actions were a little extreme, he did not blame him too much.
After all, if it was true that Ye Wenying had hired an assassin to kill Ye Xing, Ye Wenying indeed deserved to be killed.
However, when Ye Wenchao said that Ye Xing had taken Xiong Yang's head to challenge the Xiong Family's Rank 7 Martial Dao Master, Xiong Baotian, Ye Wenchao was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
The grudge between Ye Xing and Xiong Baotian had long spread throughout Celestial Ocean City. The Yeh family naturally knew that once the two of them started fighting, it would definitely be a situation where one of them would not rest until one of them was dead.
"Quick …! Stop him …! "Ye Wenchao was as anxious as an ant on a hot nest as he shouted.
Xiong Baotian was a Martial Dao Master. Although he was only at the early stage of Rank 7, a Master was still a Master. Even a peak Rank 6 Martial Dao Master's strength was far inferior to his.
Ye Wenchao clearly did not think that Ye Xing's strength was enough to challenge Xiong Baotian. In his opinion, once the two of them started fighting, Ye Xing would definitely lose his life.
It wasn't easy for the Yeh family to produce a student from the Purple Mountain Academy's Gifted Class. How could they allow him to lose his life in Celestial Ocean City before entering the Purple Mountain Academy?
Ye Wenchao issued an order for any member of the Yeh family to stop Ye Xing if they saw him. He even personally went to the Xiong Family to stop Ye Xing from challenging Xiong Baotian.
Unfortunately, it was already too late!
Ye Xing did not head to the Xiong Family. Instead, he rode his horse to the busiest street in Celestial Ocean City. There were many Martial Dao Masters here, and the crowd was densely packed.
On Celestial Ocean Street, there was a huge flag. The pole of the flag was a tree as thick as an adult's waist. It was over twenty zhang tall, and the words' Celestial Ocean City 'fluttered on the flag. It was the symbol of Celestial Ocean City.
Ye Xing rode his horse to this place. As a famous person in Celestial Ocean City, he attracted the attention of all the Martial Dao Masters here.
Seeing Ye Xing with a bow and arrows on his back and a bag in his hand, he reined in his horse and stopped under the Celestial Ocean City's flag. The Martial Dao Masters were in a heated discussion, not knowing what Ye Xing wanted to do.
At this time, Ye Xing shook the bag in his hand, revealing Xiong Yang's head.
Seeing that Ye Xing was holding a human head in his hand, all the Martial Dao Masters were shocked. Many of them even cried out in surprise.
Ye Xing tossed Xiong Yang's head into the air, then took out a black arrow and shot it out in the blink of an eye.
Whoosh — —
The black arrow pierced through Xiong Yang's head, then nailed it to the top of the flag pole about twenty zhang above the ground.
Following that, Ye Xing roared, "Xiong Baotian, tomorrow noon, I will have a life and death battle with you in the central plaza. Whoever doesn't dare to come is a grandson!"
Challenging Xiong Baotian to a battle did not necessarily require him to go to the Xiong Family in front of Xiong Baotian. Ye Xing only needed to shout here and the news would spread through the entire Celestial Ocean City. Xiong Baotian would naturally receive it.
Moreover, issuing a public challenge, Xiong Baotian had no choice but to come. Unless he, a Martial Dao Master, decided to be a coward for the rest of his life. This … was obviously impossible.
Ye Xing's roar silenced the crowd. The Martial Dao Masters were dumbfounded.
Xiong Baotian was a Seventh Stage Martial Dao Master, an existence that stood at the pinnacle of Celestial Ocean City's Martial Dao World. Ye Xing actually wanted to challenge Xiong Baotian to a life and death battle?
However, the silence only lasted for a breath's time. Following that, the Martial Dao Masters broke out into an uproar. Everyone exclaimed in shock, discussing spiritedly.
After leaving behind a sentence, Ye Xing urged his horse to gallop towards the Yeh family, quickly leaving this place.
"That head, why does it look a little like the Xiong Family's Elder Xiong Yang?"
Xiong Yang was a well-known figure in Celestial Ocean City. Naturally, there were many people who recognized him. Looking at the head nailed to the flagpole, there were people who quickly recognized it.
Coincidentally, there were a few Xiong Family Martial Dao Masters present. When they saw Xiong Yang's head, they were petrified. This … was the most dignified Elder Xiong Yang in the family?
Those Martial Dao Masters who recognized the Xiong Family Martial Dao Masters could tell from their reactions that the head on the flagpole was indeed the Xiong Family Elder Xiong Yang's head.
Ye Xing nailed the head of the Xiong Family Elder Xiong Yang on the flagpole of Celestial Ocean City and issued a life and death challenge to the Xiong Family Martial Dao Master. This matter was too shocking. The news spread rapidly as if it had grown wings. It probably wouldn't take long for this matter to spread throughout the entire Celestial Ocean City.
Ye Wendao brought people to the Xiong Family Martial Dao Masters. However, he didn't receive any news about Ye Xing. Later on, he heard that Ye Xing had gone to Celestial Ocean City Street. Ye Wendao brought people to rush over but failed to find him.
However, when they saw Xiong Yang's head on the flagpole and heard that Ye Xing had already declared war on Xiong Baotian, whether it was Ye Wendao or the other members of the Yeh family, they were all petrified.
Words spoken were like spilled water. Since things had already come to this, it was useless to stop it. What they needed to worry about was the result of the life and death duel between Ye Xing and Xiong Baotian tomorrow at noon.
When Ye Wendao and the others returned to the family, Ye Xing had already returned the horses. When they returned to his residence, both parties bumped into each other.
Ye Xing took out the cloth scroll that he had found on the masked assassin and handed it to Ye Wendao. He said, "Patriarch, this is a drawing personally written by Ye Wenying. He asked the assassin to kill a disciple. The evidence is conclusive."
Ye Wendao took the cloth scroll and casually glanced at it before putting it down. What he was concerned about now was the duel between Ye Xing and Xiong Baotian. The grudge between him and Ye Wenying was just a small matter. He couldn't be bothered with it.
"Sigh …!"
Ye Wendao sighed and said, "Ye Xing, you are about to enter the Purple Mountain Academy. There is a great future waiting for you. Why do you have to compete with Xiong Baotian for a moment's length? Moreover, you want to have a life and death duel with him. This is a duel that you proposed. If he wants to kill you in the duel, even Grandmaster Mu Feng can't stop it. "
Ye Wendao's tone was melancholic. If Ye Xing died at the hands of Xiong Baotian, he would feel that it was a pity.
Ye Xing's expression was much more indifferent. He said, "If I don't settle this grudge with him, the Qingye Village branch family will be harmed by him in the future. I won't give him any chance. He must die!"
At this point, Ye Xing smiled indifferently. His face revealed a confident expression. "Patriarch, don't worry. Since I dare to challenge Xiong Baotian, I naturally have the confidence to deal with him."
Ye Xing could only say this. He couldn't say that he had killed a Martial Dao Master. Who knew if the Yeh family had spies from the Xiong family who would pass the news to the Xiong family?
