For the exchange this time …
The five ancient families led by the Xiao family were dreaming.
They initially planned to win the netherworld tokens from Luo Shuiyao and Ye Chen, but they did not expect to go for wool and come home shorn. The Du family and the Lin family lost two netherworld tokens consecutively.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen's combat strength had slapped them in the face again and again!
At that moment, Du family's Du Zong, Lin family's Lin Fulong, Duan family's Duan Tianlang, and the rest had extremely strong killing intent against Ye Chen.
However, they dared not attack!
That was because the Bai family and the Xiao family had yet to speak!
The other three ancient families were usually led by the Bai family and the Xiao family!
It was because Bai Shaoyu and Xiao Yuanjing were ranked No. 2 and No. 3 respectively on the Martial Venerable Leaderboard!
However, compared to the rage of Du Zong and the rest, Bai Shaoyu and Xiao Yuanjing were very calm, as if they did not see what was happening before them.
Bai Shaoyu looked at his slender fingers carefully before raising his head to look at Xiao Yuanjing beside him, "Yuanjing, what do you think?"
Xiao Yuanjing maintained a calm expression. He lifted his eyes to look at Ye Chen carefully, "Mad Southern Ye, I have to say that you've surprised us. A mere person from the secular world actually killed the geniuses of Shang Santian consecutively."
At that moment, even he started to take Ye Chen seriously. He initially thought that Ye Chen was just an ant-like figure!
He did not expect him to kill two intermediate-level martial venerables consecutively!
Before Ye Chen could speak, he squinted and looked down at Ye Chen in a condescending manner, "Why don't we make a deal? Hand the netherworld token to us and cripple your cultivation base. We won't pursue the matter of you killing the disciples of the five ancient families anymore. What do you think?"
"Young Master Xiao!"
Du Zong, Lin Fulong, Duan Tianlang, and the rest looked at him in disbelief. Clearly, they did not expect Xiao Yuanjing to let Ye Chen off so easily.
"Shut up!"
Xiao Yuanjing's expression turned cold.
Du Zong and the rest felt a chill in their hearts. They did not dare to speak anymore. However, their gazes at Ye Chen were filled with extreme coldness.
Hearing Xiao Yuanjing's overbearing words, Luo Shuiyao's pretty face changed slightly.
Xiao Yuanjing looked at him coldly, "Luo Shuiyao, if you dare to say another word, do you believe that I can kill you right now? Don't bring up Luo Tianya. Let's not talk about him not being present. Even if he was present, what would I be afraid of?! "
Luo Shuiyao's heart trembled when she met his gaze.
At that moment, she recalled that the person sitting in front of her was the second on the Martial Venerable Leaderboard, a terrifying existence that even her monstrous brother had praised!
She was already like this, let alone Tong Shuhui and the others!
Only Xiang Heng was secretly sneering. He looked at Ye Chen as if he was looking at a dead man, "Brat, so what if you killed two intermediate-level martial venerables consecutively? So what if you're stronger than me? No one here can protect you if you offend Xiao Yuanjing! "
Xiao Yuanjing looked at Ye Chen again, "What do you think?"
Ye Chen's expression remained unchanged under everyone's gaze. He looked at him without backing down and smiled lightly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you make me cripple my own cultivation and hand over the netherworld token? "
As his voice fell!
The entire hall was as silent as a dead silence!
Everyone's faces were filled with disbelief!
Ye Chen rejected Xiao Yuanjing!
Not only did he reject him, he even asked who he was in front of everyone!
One had to know that he was a terrifying existence who was ranked No. 2 on the Martial Venerable Leaderboard!
"He's dead. This brat is dead for sure!"
Xiang Heng was so excited that he almost cried out!
He was not the only one. Even Lin Fulong and the rest, who were furious, were overjoyed. Initially, he thought that Ye Chen would agree because he was afraid of Xiao Yuanjing. Never did he expect this guy to overestimate himself and reject him!
Luo Shuiyao looked at Ye Chen in panic, "Ye Chen …"
Although she did not want Ye Chen to agree to Xiao Yuanjing's request!
However, she did not expect Ye Chen to reject him so straightforwardly!
Xiang Heng smirked coldly and said, "Yaoyao, why are you saying so much for someone who's going to die? He's courting death. He can't blame us! "
"Good, very good, very good!"
A hint of fierceness appeared on Xiao Yuanjing's gentle face when he heard what Ye Chen said, "You're the first one who dared to reject me. Very good!"
He turned around slowly.
At the same time.
An emotionless voice was heard.
"Do it!"
"I'll kill anyone who tries to stop me today!!!"
As his voice fell!
Lin Fulong and the others were overjoyed!
They were waiting for Xiao Yuanjing's order!
Du Zong, who was among the crowd, walked toward Ye Chen slowly. A bloodthirsty smile appeared at the corner of his lips, "Brat, you didn't expect this day to come, did you?"
Seeing Du Zong's murderous aura,
Tong Shuhui looked at Xiang Nan, Liu Yunfeng, and the others. The three of them shook their heads in unison and subconsciously pulled Luo Shuiyao to the side.
Xiao Yuanjing was not someone they could deal with.
"What a pity!"
Tong Shuhui glanced at Ye Chen with a complicated expression and thought to herself, 'You're quite talented. If you cultivate for a few decades, you might have a place in Shang Santian in the future. Unfortunately, you're too arrogant. Even I can't help you today.'
Xiang Nan and Liu Yunfeng shook their heads.
In reality, from the moment Ye Chen killed two intermediate-level martial venerables consecutively, the two of them no longer had any enmity towards Ye Chen. Instead, they respected him.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen had offended Xiao Yuanjing.
Du Zong said as he walked, "From the moment you killed my Du family's Du Ming, today's outcome was destined. Don't even think about resisting because in my eyes, you're no different from an ant."
Just when he was about to approach Ye Chen, a beautiful figure suddenly stood in front of Ye Chen to protect him.
A beautiful figure suddenly stood in front of Ye Chen and glared at Du Zong with determination, "Du Zong, I won't allow you to kill Ye Chen!"
Who else could it be but Luo Shuiyao?!
"Yaoyao, come here!"
Tong Shuhui was stunned when she saw that.
They did not expect Luo Shuiyao to stand up for Ye Chen after Xiao Yuanjing threatened her!
However, Luo Shuiyao still stood in front of Ye Chen to protect him!
"Luo Shuiyao, don't be so shameless!"
Du Zong's expression was extremely grim, "You're so protective of this brat. Is he your lover?"
Luo Shuiyao had never been humiliated like this before. Her pretty face turned pale, "You …"
Ye Chen's expression turned cold when he heard the word 'lover'.
Ye Chen's face turned cold. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he looked at Du Zong, "Ms. Luo, move aside. This piece of trash can't kill me!"
His friendship with Luo Shuiyao was pure!
Moreover, under such circumstances, Luo Shuiyao still risked the public's wrath to protect him. It would be a lie to say that he was not touched!
"Ye Chen, don't say anything!"
Luo Shuiyao stared at Du Zong coldly, "I'll protect you today. I don't believe he really dares to kill me!"
"Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me. Don't think that your big brother, Luo Tianya, can do whatever he wants in Shang Santian!"
An extremely cold killing intent flashed across Du Zong's eyes. He struck out with his palm, and a sharp wind tore through the air as it attacked Luo Shuiyao.
Back then, he was forced to kneel because of Luo Shuiyao!
That had always been the most humiliating thing for him!
Luo Shuiyao closed her eyes subconsciously when she saw that.
Ye Chen scoffed coldly. Just when he was about to pull her behind him, a loud shout suddenly came from the ground.
"Who dares to hurt my sister?!"
