Supreme Lord of Towers

”Ye Nan, is it really you?” In the room, Ye Chen stared intensely at the black-clad young man, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The young man who burst into Ye Chen’s room was named Ye Nan.

He was the son of the Ye Family’s Second Elder and also Ye Lin’Er’s cousin.

Ye Chen had known him since he was six years old.

In his memory, Ye Nan had always been a friendly person, extremely caring, so he always considered Ye Nan his good friend.

Because Ye Chen had an exceptionally high martial arts talent since childhood, Ye Nan often asked him for guidance in martial arts.

And Ye Chen never refused him, sharing everything he realized selflessly.

With Ye Chen’s help, Ye Nan also successfully mastered two martial arts, causing his power to advance by leaps and bounds.

But now, Ye Nan had stormed into Ye Chen’s room murderously, clearly with bad intentions.

This left Ye Chen finding it hard to accept for a moment.

Could it be that this good friend, who grew up with him, had been pretending all along?

”Ha! Trash, are you surprised? You probably never dreamed of the day you would die at my hands, did you?” Ye Nan couldn’t help but sneer, his lips curled with mockery, looking at Ye Chen as if he were an ant that could be crushed at will.

”Ye Nan, why are you doing this? In the past, to cultivate a martial art, you would flatter and befriend me daily. But now you want to kill me. Is this your true face?” Anger exploded from Ye Chen’s eyes.

The friend he treated sincerely turned out to be an ungrateful wolf.

This made Ye Chen feel extremely cold-hearted.

”Shut up, trash! You’re audacious enough to make advances on cousin Lin’Er. Trash like you doesn’t deserve to live in this world. I’m here today to remove your malignant tumor for the Ye Family.” A terrifying gleam shot out from Ye Nan’s eyes as he reproached Ye Chen loudly, his gaze cold beyond measure.

In fact, he had come today at the instigation of Ye Kun and his daughter, to take Ye Chen’s life.

Even though Ye Chen’s bloodline had been stolen by Ye Lin’Er, the father and daughter still didn’t intend to let him go.

Three days ago, Ye Kun didn’t kill Ye Chen because Ye Chen’s adoptive father was the Patriarch of the Ye Family, and even Ye Kun was cautious.

But not long ago, the Ye Family’s Patriarch Ye Ming suffered a severe injury in the Canglan Mountain Range, causing his strength to fall to the True Qi Realm.

So, he could no longer protect the useless Ye Chen.

”Hm! Ye Lin’Er—using despicable means to steal my bloodline and then falsely accusing me—Ye Chen swore he wouldn’t spare the father and daughter.” Ye Chen’s fists clenched tightly, producing cracking sounds, even with his nails digging into his flesh.

Having his bloodline stolen by Ye Lin’Er was already enough to make him furious.

But now, Ye Lin’Er even twisted the truth, accusing him of trying to defile her!

Such methods are truly outrageous.

If Ye Chen had sufficient strength, he would ensure they had nowhere to hide.

”Huh! Ye Chen, you useless scum; don’t even bother denying it! Now the whole Kunzhou Prefecture knows you tried to defile cousin Lin’Er using Mind-Bending Fragrance. For garbage like you, who is even worse than a beast, you should not live in this world. Let me send you on your way today!” Ye Nan couldn’t help but sneer, his eyes looking at Ye Chen like a hunter looking at a prey he could slaughter at will.

You know, his cultivation had already reached the Fifth Layer of the True Qi Realm.

The True Qi Realm is divided into ten layers in total; with each increase, the amount of Sea of Qi increases, and combat power gets significantly enhanced.

Therefore, in Ye Nan’s eyes, Ye Chen, a useless person who hadn’t even opened his Sea of Qi, was no different from an ant.

He could crush Ye Chen without even lifting a finger.

”Ye Nan, it seems the wench Ye Lin’Er sent you to kill me. You know I’ve been framed by her, yet you assist evil. Doesn’t your conscience feel uneasy?” Ye Chen spoke coldly.

”Ha ha! Ye Chen, you seriously thought I considered you a friend? I approached you because of your unique background; otherwise, who would waste time on a loser like you! Now, hand over the treasures your dead father left you, and I’ll give you a quick death. Otherwise, I’ll make you wish for life or death.” Ye Nan’s lips twisted into a sinister smile as he commanded Ye Chen.

He had come not just to kill Ye Chen but also to seize the treasures left by Ye Chen’s father.

Ye Chen’s father came from an immensely powerful force, and the treasures he left behind for Ye Chen were surely extraordinary.

In fact, many of the Ye Family’s higher-ups had been eyeing Ye Chen’s treasures for years.

If not for Ye Chen’s adoptive father Ye Ming, they might have already acted against him.

But now, with Ye Ming’s cultivation having plummeted to the True Qi Realm, his influence in the Ye Family had vanished.

How could he still protect the useless Ye Chen?

”Hm! You’ve finally shown your true colors? Want to take my father’s treasures? Let’s see if you have the life to take them!” Ye Chen said coldly, his eyes flashing with a terrifying chill.

”A useless person like you can be crushed under my palm; do you really think you have the power to resist me? Since you refuse the wine of honor and choose the wine of punishment, let me show you what despair tastes like.” Ye Nan’s disdain was palpable, as a violent surge of True Qi erupted from his body, transforming him into a human-shaped beast, charging at Ye Chen furiously.

The force was so terrifying that if Ye Chen hadn’t cultivated True Qi, he would surely have had his bones crushed, even his internal organs shattered.

From this, it was evident that Ye Nan genuinely intended to kill him.

”The one who should despair is you!” Faced with Ye Nan’s attack, Ye Chen remained calm, his eyes flashing with a terrifying chill.

ZZZZZ.

In the next moment, a surge of immense True Qi erupted from Ye Chen’s palm, crashing into Ye Nan’s body like a torrential wave.

This was the Ye Family’s Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Arts, ”Wild Wave Force.”

In this world, martial arts techniques are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow; each level divided into lower, middle, and upper grades.

The Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Arts are considered the weakest form of martial arts.

However, even such martial arts are not something ordinary people can obtain; usually, only large families have a collection of them.

Many cultivators are willing to become servants for these large families to learn a Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Technique.

However, as the adoptive son of the Ye Family Patriarch Ye Ming, Ye Chen was allowed to enter the Ye Family’s Martial Arts Pavilion to observe all Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Arts from a young age.

Moreover, he has had outstanding martial arts talent since childhood.

Over the years, he has perfected all of the Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Arts collected by the Ye Family.

Such talent is truly astonishing.

Even Ye Lin’Er doesn’t know this secret because Ye Chen didn’t want to discourage her, so he always held back on purpose.

”Not good.” Ye Nan’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his expression froze, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

At that moment, he felt a strong sense of impending death coming from Ye Chen.

However, by the time he reacted, it was already too late.

With a loud bang, the surge of True Qi from Ye Chen’s body slammed into Ye Nan, sending him flying several meters away.

Splurt.

Blood spewed from Ye Nan’s mouth, even breaking several ribs; his face looked worse than that of a dead person.
