Supreme Sword God

Chapter 193: Chapter 192: Blood Rage Pill

Moments later.

The battle was over.

Ye Chen, Qu Xiao, Ouyang Xiaoling, Luo Tian, and the people from the Martial Arts Academy all gathered in front of Mei Yu.

As for the martial artists from the family factions, they gathered on the other side.

Mei Yu glanced at everyone, finally fixing her gaze on Ye Chen, and said, ”Ye Chen, your combat prowess is beyond my expectations. However, the news of you killing the royal member of the Demon Race, Motuo, has probably spread within the Demon Race.

The Demon Race’s loyalty to their royal members is terrifyingly strong, so I suggest you leave Demon Suppression Valley now, and let Vice Dean He escort you back to the Martial Arts Academy immediately!”

The others also looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen remained calm and said, ”That’s just fine. I won’t need to slowly track down the Demon Race; they will come to me!”

”Ye Chen, do you not understand what is happening here?!” Mei Yu was losing her temper.

There were things Mei Yu couldn’t say openly in front of everyone, but she didn’t believe that Ye Chen was unaware that this attack by the Demon Race was orchestrated by someone in the background.

Moreover, this scheme had only just begun!

Ye Chen said, ”Instructor Mei, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing!”

Mei Yu was getting frustrated and was about to call Ye Chen aside to sternly explain the seriousness of the situation again.

But at this moment.

The martial artists from Unparalleled County’s family factions gathered on the other side started coming over.

Their leader was Yuqing Yang, the patriarch of the Yu Family, the number one family in Unparalleled County.

Ye Chen had previously clashed with the Yu Family’s Yu Chen and Yu Heng.

However, those incidents hadn’t escalated to a conflict between Ye Chen and the entire Yu Family.

Yuqing Yang wasn’t foolish; having conflicts with Ye Chen over trivial matters was not beneficial for the Yu Family, especially since Ye Chen had already shown significant potential.

However, the Yu Family also saw no reason to curry favor with Ye Chen because everyone in Unparalleled County knew that Ye Chen was currently entangled in a mess of troubles.

The Vice Dean of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, Meng Changtian, the entire Celestial Sword Sect, the Spirit Ruins Sect, and Prince Yong Zhou Chengyun, who now commanded the Three Thousand Dragon Guards, all had irreparable conflicts with Ye Chen.

Ye Chen’s potential was tremendous.

But whether he could fully develop it was still a question.

Therefore, Yuqing Yang’s stance was not to further offend but also not to have any dealings with Ye Chen!

There was no need to gamble; by maintaining the status quo, the Yu Family could still survive steadily in Unparalleled County. If they gambled and any mistake occurred, the Yu Family’s centuries-old foundation could be ruined.

Therefore, Yuqing Yang, along with the martial artists from Unparalleled County’s family factions, had agreed on one thing.

”Instructor Mei, while we originally should have followed your arrangements to clear out the Demon Race in this area, things have changed now. We will leave this area and move to another battlefield to continue clearing out the Demons,” Yuqing Yang said.

”Master Yu, what do you mean by this?” Mei Yu’s expression darkened.

Yuqing Yang said, ”I hope Instructor Mei can understand our predicament. We came to participate in the battle and to kill Demons, fulfilling our responsibility. Now, the Demon Race is almost retreating entirely into the Demon Cave, but a member of the Demon Race’s royalty has died, which is a big deal. Before the Demon Race retreats completely, they will stop at nothing to avenge their royal member’s death.

This risk, we cannot afford to take.”

”Yuqing Yang, Ye Chen did nothing wrong by killing the Demons. As the patriarch of the Yu Family, a person of status in Unparalleled County, you are leading by example. Do you really believe I won’t charge you with desertion during battle?!” Qu Xiao was furious and shouted.

”Miss Qu, what crime have we committed?” A middle-aged man beside Yuqing Yang said, ”We fought the Demons on the battlefield heedless of life and death, and now that the battle is nearly over, why should we risk our lives for someone who has nothing to do with us?

Ye Chen is from your Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. If you want to protect him, that’s your business.

But why should we be dragged along to protect him?

Of course, we are not saying we will definitely leave here, if Ye Chen leaves, we naturally will stay!”

A second person added, ”That’s right, Ye Chen, you should leave the Demon Suppression Valley battlefield. Anywhere you stay will only bring harm, putting others at risk of death.”

Although Mei Yu was also advising Ye Chen to leave,

Mei Yu’s motivations were different from those of these people.

Mei Yu was concerned about Ye Chen’s safety.

These people were afraid of being implicated by Ye Chen!

Ye Chen looked at these martial artists from Unparalleled County’s family factions, feeling very calm, because from the start, he never intended to fight alongside these people.

Earlier, when the Demon Race attacked,

they fought with ease, never considering sending a few people to help relieve Ye Chen and his group’s pressure.

”You are right,”

Ye Chen said flatly, ”You don’t have to leave, I will.”

”Ye Chen, don’t be reckless!” Mei Yu shouted sternly.

Ye Chen looked at Mei Yu and said, ”Instructor Mei, they are right. I have already become a target that the Demon Race must eliminate. Wherever I am, there will be tragic deaths and injuries, so there’s no need for me to drag others down with me.

I will handle my issues myself!”

”Brother Ye, I’m with you!”

Luo Tian stated decisively, without hesitation.

Qu Xiao looked at Ye Chen and sighed. She knew Ye Chen well enough now. It didn’t surprise her that Ye Chen would make such a decision; Ye Chen was straightforward, and once he made up his mind, swaying him would be nearly impossible.

So, Qu Xiao didn’t try to persuade him.

Mei Yu snorted coldly, not saying any more to Ye Chen. Instead, she looked at Yuqing Yang and his group and said, ”You can leave. From now on, this is a matter for Cangxing Martial Arts Academy and is none of your concern.”

Yuqing Yang cupped his hands toward Mei Yu and said, ”Instructor Mei, take care then.”

Having said that, Yuqing Yang led his people away without looking back.

”Instructor Mei, I...”

Ye Chen barely started speaking.

Mei Yu interrupted him, saying, ”What do you mean, ’I’? Do you think you’re invincible now? Here are your choices, three of them.

Either you defeat me, and I won’t stop you.

Or you leave Demon Suppression Valley, and I’ll arrange for someone to escort you back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

Or you stay put in the team, and if the Demon Race comes, we fight, fight until they dare not come anymore.”

Ye Chen was silent.

Finally, Qu Xiao spoke, ”Ye Chen, listen to Instructor Mei. The situation isn’t as severe as Yuqing Yang and his people say. If the Demon Race plans to retaliate against you, the Dragon Guard and Defense Army, as well as the rest of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, aren’t blind or deaf.

This might even be an opportunity.

The Demon Race previously lost their will to fight and wanted only to retreat into the Demon Cave.

Now, their desire for revenge against you is also our chance to advance in clearing the Demons!”

Mei Yu nodded.

Then she lifted her hand and waved.

A jade bottle floated out from her storage ring and hovered in the air. Soon after, pills poured out from the jade bottle, floating in front of each person.

”These are Blood Rage Pills. Keep them well. If you encounter a critical situation, take a pill to maintain high-intensity power for half an hour. However, remember, do not take it unless it’s an emergency, because once you use its effects, you will completely lose combat ability and need a long time to recuperate to recover.”

Mei Yu distributed such pills, indicating her pessimism about the upcoming situation.

After seeing everyone had received the Blood Rage Pills, Mei Yu said, ”Go meditate and adjust your breathing, keep yourself in the best condition at all times.”

Everyone slightly dispersed, each meditating and adjusting their breath.

”Ye Chen, you’re still planning to leave, aren’t you?” Ouyang Xiaoling approached Ye Chen and said softly.

Ye Chen looked at Ouyang Xiaoling, surprised that she would seek him out alone to discuss this matter.

Ouyang Xiaoling said, ”Wait a bit longer, don’t rush to decide. Don’t underestimate Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, or my grandfather. He is arranging many things.

Also, I have a personal matter. Previously, during the Martial Arts Academy assessment, the person who sneak-attacked me and knocked me out from behind was you, right?”

Ye Chen immediately looked embarrassed.

”I bought the truth for a hundred low-grade essence stones from that fat guy.”

Ye Chen: ”...”
