In the southern region of the Yinxu Ruins, where the merfolk were.
Following the death of the Night Soul Demon Lord, the world returned to its previous clarity. However, the earth-shattering battle from before still lingered in everyone's minds.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the four figures looked at each other and gritted their teeth. Then, they turned into afterimages and fled in all directions.
It was Tian Xie Zi and the other three.
After the capital war and the death of the Night Soul Demon Lord, they knew that they were finished. Ye Chen had the ability to kill two demon generals consecutively and even fight the Night Soul Demon Lord.
How could the four of them be a match for him? Therefore, to them, escaping was the only way to save their lives.
The four of them were cunning. They knew to split up and escape. They thought that Ye Chen would not be able to stop them alone.
However, in the next moment, three of them froze at the same time. Then, their faces were filled with shock because there was a Ye Chen in front of them.
Only the old monster from the Sen Luo Mountain fled forward. However, in the next moment, he was killed by a locust tree leaf on the spot.
"Y-You …"
Tian Xie Zi looked at the black-clad Ye Chen who was blocking his way. Shock surged on his face like a tsunami. He could not even complete a sentence while stammering.
Ye Chen had used this technique outside the Desolate God's Tomb before. Therefore, he naturally recognized this technique at a glance.
Correspondingly, the old monster from the Darkcorner Region looked at the white-clothed Ye Chen who was blocking his way in shock.
"How dare you stop me with a mere illusion? Get lost!"
The old monster from the Darkcorner Region roared. He actually launched a terrifying Divine Consciousness attack at the white-clothed Ye Chen. As soon as his Divine Consciousness was released, it crushed everything like a flood.
However, the white-clothed Ye Chen's expression was calm. However, a gleam flashed through his eyes. Subsequently, it turned into a pillar of light that rose like boiling flames.
Two terrifying Divine Consciousnesses collided with each other, instantly destroying the space within a radius of three thousand meters.
"Ah!"
The former screamed and fell from the sky while hugging his head. His eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was filled with extreme pain.
Bang, bang, bang …
It wasn't long before the three of them were forced together.
Tian Xie Zi collapsed onto the ground. Intense fear filled his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen. He said while shaking, "H-how are you so powerful?"
If he remembered correctly, Ye Chen had only stepped into the beginner-stage Void Refinement not long ago. However, the few of them, who were at Perfected Void Refinement, could not resist at all.
"Fellow Ye, are you alright?"
At this time, Yu Feixuan and the other two rushed over. All three of them were soaked in demon blood, but fortunately, they did not suffer any serious injuries.
"I'm fine." Ye Chen shook his head lightly.
Zhu Li looked at Tian Xie Zi and the other two coldly, "My Lord, what should we do with these three old fellows?!"
Yu Feixuan's eyes were filled with hatred as she said, "I think we should just kill him!"
It could be said that the current situation of the Merfolk Clan was completely caused by the three of them. As a result, her hatred towards the three of them had already reached its limit.
When they heard this, Tian Xie Zi and the others immediately felt a strand of icy cold killing intent. The three of them shuddered and hurriedly said, "Young Miss Yu, everything we did was bewitched by Demon General Nightarc and the others!"
Afraid that Yu Feixuan would not believe him, Tian Xie Zi continued, "Including your grandfather, Yu Taiyuan. He was bewitched by the Night Arc Demon General with the Mandala Demon Flower and fell into an endless hallucination. That's why he did not foresee the danger of your Merfolk Clan."
The Yu Taiyuan he mentioned was the Merfolk Clan's patriarch.
Hearing that, Yu Feixuan's delicate body trembled as if she had heard some bad news, "So … So what happened to grandfather was all your doing."
"Ms. Yu, I know how to get your grandfather to ask for the Mandala Demon Flower. As long as you don't let Fellow Ye kill us!"
At this point, his expression was extremely bitter.
Logically speaking, they were all old monsters who had lived for thousands of years and had long seen through life and death. However, when they faced death, they could not help but be afraid of death.
Ye Chen glanced at Yu Feixuan, "What do you think?"
Yu Feixuan could only retract her killing intent and say coldly, "I'll spare their lives for now. We'll talk about it after we save grandfather, Brother Tian, and the rest."
"The three of you are lucky."
Ye Chen's expression was calm as he said, "However, you can avoid death, but you can't escape punishment. Hand over your soul blood and be loyal to me forever!"
The expressions of Tian Xie Zi and the other two changed drastically when they heard that.
The old monster from the Dark Corner Zone took a deep breath in and sneered, "I've cultivated for countless years. I'd rather die than hand over my soul blood!"
"Since that's the case, go to hell!"
Ye Chen attacked. The old man spat a mouthful of blood immediately. His body tilted and he fell to the ground, dead.
Following his death, Tian Xie Zi and the other two forced a smile. In the end, they gritted their teeth and pointed at their glabella with trembling right hands. Two drops of golden blood landed in Ye Chen's hand.
After taking their soul blood, Ye Chen looked at Tian Xie Zi and said, "Now, bring me to my brother, Yang Tian!"
"Yes!"
Tian Xie Zi nodded bitterly. He took the lead and led Ye Chen and the rest to the gigantic island. At the same time, a huge city entered Ye Chen's sight. The city was decorated extremely luxuriously. It seemed to be made of agate and coral.
Ye Chen could not help but frown. The merfolk were a cultivation force after all. He did not expect the decorations to be no different from a palace in the mortal world.
As if sensing his confusion, Yu Feixuan's pretty face could not help but heat up. She explained, "There are many women in the merfolk tribe, and women are born to be beautiful, so …"
Ye Chen could not help but come to a realization and stopped asking.
In the end, Tian Xie Zi led everyone into the merfolk's ancestral land. It seemed to be a serene pool. However, when they stepped into it, they immediately felt the world spin. A powerful restrictive force came at them.
"Open!"
Yu Feixuan bit her finger and formed ancient and obscure runes in the air. The runes were like butterflies that circled above the serene pool.
Rumble!!!
With a loud bang, the power of the restrictive force that was coming at them immediately dispersed. In the next moment, the scene before them changed.
The space was torn open forcefully. When they stepped into it, they saw an extremely quiet valley. There was a spacious corridor under their feet, and there was a huge palace at the end of the corridor.
Outside the palace, there was a huge stone statue standing tall. It was a mermaid stone statue, but it seemed to be a woman. Even though it was a stone statue, it was still vivid and lifelike. The otherworldly aura between her brows made Ye Chen take a few more glances.
"This is the ancestor of the merfolk tribe."
Yu Feixuan and Xiao Tao kowtowed to the stone statue respectfully before introducing them to Ye Chen one after another.
