In a private room by the window in Spring Breeze Restaurant in Chaoge City.
A few graceful women surrounded a man, and among them, the man was dressed in white and held an iron fan in his hand. He allowed the women to serve him.
It was River Feather.
When he saw the Zhang family running out of Chaoge City, River Feather's eyes flashed. He could not help but shake his head and say, "Even the Third Elder of the Jiang family is here. Brother Ye is in trouble now. Why didn't you listen to me …"
Although he said that, he was still unmoved. He did not plan to help Ye Chen. After all, he had only met Ye Chen by chance. It was already good enough that he could give him some pointers.
Outside Chaoge City, at Shili Hill.
He watched as the man in black whom he was about to save was killed by Ye Chen right in front of him!
The gray-robed old man glared at Ye Chen and said coldly, "B * stard, how dare you kill a member of my Chaoge Zhang family?!"
The passersby who were shocked by this scene were also shocked when they heard that. They inhaled sharply at the same time!
"It's the Third Elder of the Zhang family, Zhang Wuren!"
There were a total of eight great cultivation families in Chaoge City. Over the years, the position of city governor had always been held by the eight great cultivation families. No one dared to complain.
The Zhang family was one of the eight great families. They had many businesses such as markets, shops, and so on.
Now, someone dared to kill a member of the Zhang family?!
Ye Chen looked calm. He walked toward the gray-robed old man while carrying his daughter.
Under countless gazes, he pointed at the red-robed old man behind the gray-robed old man, "Elder Hu of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, do you have to explain this to me?"
The former was the elder who had traded the bronze mirror with him at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. Now that he had appeared here with the gray-robed old man, the ins and outs of the matter were naturally self-evident.
Under everyone's gaze, the red-robed old man took a step forward and looked at him with a grim expression, "Fellow, the deal between you and me has already been completed. With the Jiang family's Young Master River Feather as a witness, it's fair and just. What do you mean by that?"
In reality, the man in black who was killed by Ye Che was a disciple that he had secretly taken in many years ago. It was inconvenient for him to show himself because he cultivated a Demonic Dao cultivation method.
This time, they were under his orders to kill Ye Chen and take back the 100,000 spirit stones from him.
However, in this situation, with others present, he naturally did not dare to admit that the black-clothed man was sent by him.
Hearing his sophistry, Ye Chen chuckled softly and said in disdain, "I was ambushed by this person as soon as I came out of your Treasure Gathering Pavilion. Don't you think this is a little too coincidental?"
"I don't understand what you're saying."
The red-robed elder sneered. In reality, he was also a little shocked. One had to know that his eldest disciple was at the Pseudo Pellet Stage.
However, he was killed by Ye Chen with a single finger. It was clear that he had underestimated Ye Chen's ability. Ye Chen's cultivation base might be on the Golden Core Stage.
The grey-robed old man and the others could not help but look at each other with flickering eyes.
With their experience, they naturally found out from the duo's conversation that Elder Hu might have sent someone to kill Ye Chen because he coveted what he had on him. Never had they thought that they would be exposed.
However, Elder Hu was their Zhang family's revered elder after all. No matter what, they had to push this matter away to protect the Treasure Gathering Pavilion's reputation.
Thinking to this point, the leading grey-robed old man immediately sneered, "What nonsense. Elder Hu is our Zhang family's revered elder, and we know him very well. How can you slander him?"
"Brat, you killed my Zhang family's disciples, and you still want to blame us? Today, follow me back to the Zhang family to await punishment!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and activated his True Origin Energy to transform into a large spiritual energy hand. He charged at Ye Chen directly, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
Seeing that, the people standing in the distance could not help but shake their heads secretly. They seemed to have seen Ye Chen's outcome.
Even the red-robed old man revealed a cruel expression, "Although Third Elder's strength is inferior to him, he's also at the mastery stage of the Golden Core Stage. Wouldn't it be easy for him to capture a brat?"
Ye Chen's eyes turned cold. Then, he lifted his right hand and pressed it at the air. A loud rumble came from the air, and then a terrifying pressure landed on the grey-robed old man and the rest.
At that moment, the few people, including the red-robed old man, felt a pressure that was as heavy as a mountain. Then, they fell to the ground and could not move at all.
"How is this possible?"
The eyes of the grey-robed old man and the rest were filled with extreme shock.
One must know that the lowest cultivation base among them was at the intermediate-stage of the Golden Core Stage. There was even a perfection-stage Golden Core Stage like the red-robed old man.
However, they were no match for Ye Chen?
Unless the other party's cultivation base was at the Pseudo Nascent Soul Stage or even higher!
Thinking to this point, the red-robed old man and the rest were horrified. They immediately cried out, "Senior, it's a misunderstanding. This is a misunderstanding …"
"A misunderstanding?"
Ye Chen's expression was cold as he slammed his right palm down.
In an instant, the ground shook violently. Even the people standing far away felt like they could not stand still.
When the storm faded, the place where the Zhang family and the rest were standing earlier sunk 30 meters into the ground. Apart from that, there was no one else.
"He killed a few Golden Core cultivators with a single palm?"
Someone could not hide the shock within him. He said while shaking, "This person must be a Nascent Soul cultivator. The Zhang family has kicked a metal plate this time!"
…
In the Jubao Pavilion in Chaoge City.
Attendant Wu lay on the armchair with a pot of spiritual tea in his hand. He would take a sip from it every now and then as he squinted.
Elder Hu had sent people to kill that brat. Naturally, he would receive money to keep his mouth shut as soon as the job was done.
Such a scene had happened more than once. Therefore, when he saw Elder Hu handing the 100,000 spiritual stones to Ye Chen without hesitation, he had already guessed what was going to happen next.
"I should be able to get at least 2,000 spiritual stones this time."
Attendant Wu took a sip of tea as he thought to this point. He could not help but be elated. "Together with the spiritual stones that I've been saving for years, I might be able to buy a Dustfall Pill from my family to prepare for core formation."
Just when he was thinking happily, he suddenly felt the ground shake violently as if the entire Jubao Pavilion was shaking.
Plop!
He landed on the ground directly. Ignoring the dust on his body, he got up and looked outside the Jubao Pavilion, "What's going on?!"
In his eyes, he saw a white-haired young man carrying a little girl in his arms break open the door and walk in slowly.
"The brat with the surname Ye?"
Attendant Wu was shocked at first, then he said in disbelief, "H-how are you still alive?!"
"Are you surprised that I'm not dead?"
Ye Chen said while smiling as he walked.
At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Attendant Wu's mind. Subsequently, he slapped Ye Chen without any hesitation.
Bang!
As blood splattered, a severed arm fell to the ground.
"Ahh!"
Deacon Wu covered his shoulder that was bleeding and retreated a few meters away. He looked at Ye Chen in fear.
