War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“Really?” Liu Feng Gu’s eyes narrowed upon hearing Ye Chen Feng’s words. “No wonder… Even then, this alone isn’t enough to push him to such extremes, right?”

“Of course,” Ye Chen Feng said with a faint smile, “There are other reasons as well. You should know his master, right? His master had a few disciples who suddenly perished without any reason.”

Then, Ye Chen Feng looked at Liu Feng Gu meaningfully.

Liu Feng Gu’s eyes widened slightly as he asked, “You’re saying his progress has something to do with his master, Yuan Han Jin?”

Ye Chen Feng nodded. “That’s right. That aside, I think it’s likely that Yuan Han Jin has something to do with the death of Yang Qian Ye’s father, Lan Qing; the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect. I sent someone to investigate. When Lan Qing died, Yuan Han Jin wasn’t in the sect. I checked the sect’s Mirror Formation and saw Yuan Han Jin sneaking out of the sect.”

Liu Feng Gu’s expression changed immediately. “Isn’t he afraid of his plan backfiring?”

Ye Chen Feng shrugged. “Perhaps, he’s confident that Yang Qian Ye will never discover the truth.”

Naturally, Ye Chen Feng and Liu Feng Gu were conversing through Voice Transmission so no one could hear them. This matter was quite sensitive, after all. Although Yuan Han Jin was weak, they had to consider the feelings of Yuan Han Jin’s father, Yuan Ping Sheng who was their peer in the Pure Yang Sect. They had a rather good relationship with Yuan Ping Sheng so they would not easily expose this matter. Moreover, they did not have concrete evidence to prove Yuan Han Jin indeed had a hand in the matter. Even if they accused Yuan Han Jin, Yuan Han Jin could easily deny it. If Yuan Han Jin was truly the culprit, he would have gotten rid of the important evidence anyway.

“Then, what does this have to do with Ye Ying Cai?” Liu Feng Gu asked.

“After the end of the Seven Mansions Feast, I plan to speak to Senior Brother Ping Sheng. Perhaps, Yuan Han Jin would be able to help Ye Ying Cai the way he helped Yang Qian Ye,” Ye Chen Feng said, “I’m sure that the deaths of Yuan Han Jin’s previous disciples had something to do with that. I’m guessing Yuan Han Jin found a place that could help the younger generation’s cultivation…”

After listening to these words, Liu Feng Gu muttered, “I just thought of something…”

Ye Chen Feng and Liu Feng Gu looked at each other before they said in unison, “The Supreme Divine Mansion.”

Then, Liu Feng Gu asked solemnly, “Are you sure you want to let Ye Ying Cai enter the Supreme Divine Mansion? Aren’t you worried he might not be able to survive there?”

“I don’t understand him as much as Ye Tong does. However, according to Ye Tong, Ye Ying Cai’s will and determination won’t be inferior to those of Yang Qian Ye when driven by revenge.”

Liu Feng Gu remained silent, still recovering from the shock.

Ye Chen Feng smiled and asked, “Senior Brother Liu, is there anyone in the Tyrannic Saber faction whom you think is suitable? When I speak to Senior Brother Ping Sheng, I help you speak to him as well.”

“No need. Nobody in my faction has this kind of hatred that runs so deep,” Liu Feng Gu said without hesitation. His expression was solemn as he continued to say, “However, if Yuan Han Jin is the culprit,we can’t let his evil deed slide.”

Ye Chen Feng took a sip from his teacup before he said teasingly, “Then, Senior Brother Liu, why don’t you kill him on behalf of our sect?”

Liu Feng Gu’s expression froze for a moment before he glared at Ye Chen Feng and said, “Do you want Junior Brother Ping Sheng to kill me?”

Ye Chen Feng replied indifferently, “You should just tell Senior Brother Ping Seng about it, and let him deal with Yuan Han Jin. If Yuan Han Jin repeats the same mistake again, we naturally won’t let it slide again. For now, we’ll give him a chance for Senior Brother Ping Sheng’s sake.”

Liu Feng Gu nodded. He knew this was as far as they could go for now. After all, if they took harsh action immediately, no one knew how Yuan Ping Sheng would react; Yuan Han Jin was his only son after all.

…

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian watched Ye Ying Cai’s fight. Just as he had expected, Ye Ying Cai did not show his opponent mercy.

Ye Ying Cai was much stronger than the participant from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice. The other party was no match for him at all and could barely react in time when he attacked with all his might.

Bang!

A loud explosion rang in the air as Ye Ying Cai’s opponent was sent flying back, spitting out a mouthful of blood at the same time. Before Ye Ying Cai’s attack struck him, a translucent barrier appeared. The barrier exhausted half its power, successfully blocking the killing blow.

Upon seeing this, Lin Dong Lai asked Ye Ying Cai through Voice Transmission, “Ye Ying Cai, is there animosity between the both of you?”

Since Ye Ying Cai was from the Pure Yang Sect, and he was also Ye Chen Feng’s granddisciple, Lin Dong Lai did not question Ye Ying Cai openly.

“You can say he’s an enemy of mine,” Ye Ying Cai replied before leaving the battlefield. Despite his killing blow, he knew that it was impossible for him to kill his opponent with Lin Dong Lai’s presence.

Wang Yi Shan, the participant from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice, was pale. His expression was unsightly as he stared at Ye Ying Cai, who was leaving. He asked in a low voice, “Ye Ying Cai, why do you want to kill me? This is our first meeting so there’s no conflict between us, right?”

Wang Yi Shan was both furious and frightened after escaping death.

Needless to say, Ye Ying Cai did not reply to Wang Yi Shan. As he returned to his original position, his gaze was cold as he looked in the direction of where the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice was.

The people from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice were also looking at Ye Ying Cai. They had been displeased when they saw Ye Ying Cai’s attack. Although they knew it was impossible for Ye Ying Cai to kill Wang Yi Shan, it was enough to stir up their anger. Some of them even rose to their feet with dark expressions on their faces. However, all of them, except those high-ranking officials who were aware of the past, were perplexed when they saw Ye Ying Cai’s hostile gaze.

The high-ranking officials from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice exchanged a look as they communicated through Voice Transmission.

“Is that the bast*rd that survived in the past?”

“Yes. Ye Chen Feng and the Pure Yang Sect protected him at that time.”

“Did he discover the truth? Otherwise, there’s no reason for him to act so viciously toward someone he met for the first time. He wasn’t so ruthless with his attacks during the previous round.”

“Did Ye Chen Feng reveal the truth to him? The Pure Yang Sect must be held accountable if that’s the case!”

“I don’t think so…”

“Let’s find out what happened first before we act…”

Apart from Ye Chen Feng, Liu Feng Gu, Zhen Ping Fan, and Duan Ling Tian, the others from the Pure Yang Sect were also shocked and confused by how ruthless Ye Ying Cai was with Wang Yi Shan. After all, during his previous fight, he had been rather gentle and even withdrew his attack before it hurt his opponent. It was starkly different from his attack toward Wang Yi Shan. If it were for not Lin Dong Lai, his attack would have killed Wang Yi Shan. Due to the distance, even the high-ranking officials of the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice would find it difficult to save Wang Yi Shan.

At this time, Ye Chen Feng received a Voice Transmission. It was from Ren Tie Qiu, the Leader of the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice. Ren Tie Qiu’s expression was unsightly as he asked, “Elder Ye, did you reveal the past to Ye Ying Cai? You and the Pure Yang Sect promised to keep the past a secret from him so as to avoid raising an enemy of my alliance.”

Ye Chen Feng raised his head slightly and glanced at Ren Tie Qiu before he replied, “I didn’t reveal anything to him. However, I won’t deny that he’s found out about the past. He ran into his mother and elder twin brother previously. That’s how he found out. I’m telling you this not because I’m afraid of you or the alliance. I only want to say that I didn’t break my promise. You’re free to investigate if you don’t believe me. That aside, I advise you think twice about acting against his mother and twin brother. If something happens to either one of them, I’ll kill an Emperor of Gods from the alliance in exchange. It doesn’t matter if it’s a rudimentary or intermediate Emperor of Gods. An eye for an eye.”

Ren Tie Qiu’s expression soured as soon as he heard Ye Chen Feng’s thinly-veiled threats. His eyes glinted coldly as he said, “Ye Chen Feng, are you threatening me and the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice?”

“You can think whatever you want,” Ye Chen Feng said with a smile, “If you’re not convinced, we can spar after the Seven Mansions Feast.”

Ren Tie Qiu’s expression changed again when he recalled how strong Ye Chen Feng had gotten. However, he did not submit completely. He said, “Ye Chen Feng, I won’t sit aside and do nothing if someone plots against my alliance. It’s the same even if it’s your Hidden Sword faction’s Ye Ying Cai, his mother, or his twin brother. I still won’t let him go if they dare to harm the members of my alliance! If he does such a thing and you insist on protecting him, then the Pure Yang Sect should prepare to face the consequences of offending the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice! You’re indeed strong, but do you think you can protect each and every member of the Pure Yang Sect at all times?”

Ye Chen Feng’s expression remained the same as he said, “I’m not unreasonable. The alliance is welcome to make a move on him, providing those who make a move aren’t more than 5,000 years older than him. I, along with the Pure Yang Sect, won’t act as long as that’s the case. Otherwise, mark my words. I’ll visit the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice and kill three Emperors of Gods.”
