Supreme Sword God

Chapter 196: Chapter 195: Breaking Through Enemy Lines

The roar of battle thundered behind him.

Ye Chen ignored everything and charged in one direction.

Before long,

another group of the Demon Race appeared, blocking Ye Chen’s path.

”Stop him, kill him!”

A Peak of Primordial Embryo Realm demon shouted loudly.

In the Demon Suppression Valley battlefield, there were many in the Mortal Transformation Realm, both human and demon, but they were mostly concentrated in the deeper magic caverns now.

So, the demons not yet withdrawn to the magic caverns were mostly in the Primordial Embryo Realm, few were in the Mortal Transformation Realm.

The same was true for the humans.

The strong ones had mostly entered the magic caverns, aiming to directly attack the Demon Race’s headquarters.

Facing the charging demons ahead,

Ye Chen chose not to dodge, instantly using the Heaven-Ascending Step to shrink the ground to an inch, and in a flash, he was before this group of demons.

His speed was too fast.

The demons simply couldn’t react in time.

Immediately after,

a powerful Spiritual Power carrying sharpness swept over them!

The demons below the Primordial Embryo Realm let out shrill screams.

Even demons below the fifth stage of the Primordial Embryo Realm felt like their heads were being pierced by countless needles.

Even the strongest Peak of Primordial Embryo Realm demons had their sea of consciousness disturbed, causing a momentary lapse in awareness!

Facing a large number of demons, Ye Chen indeed couldn’t handle them all at once.

But this group of only a dozen demons had five in the Primordial Embryo Realm, the rest were in the Sea of Qi Realm, and they had no idea how terrifying Ye Chen was!

In the Demon Race, everyone who knew Ye Chen’s combat strength was already dead.

The Celestial Mark Sword in Ye Chen’s hand swept forward.

Sea of flames rolled.

The terrifying heatwave twisted the very space around them.

After executing one move with the Heaven-Burning Sword, only five Primordial Embryo Realm demons remained from this demon group.

The five Primordial Embryo Realm demons had come back to their senses, and although they were injured, it didn’t stop them from attacking, each of them howling as they charged at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen thrust his sword.

The Celestial Mark Sword manifested true Wood Sword Intent!

This was the Wood Extreme Thousand Entwined Sword from the Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique.

Previously, Ye Chen’s swordsmanship all aimed for the ultimate attack power.

The only defensive move was the Earth Extreme Dragon Slash.

In recent days, Ye Chen finally mastered the Wood Extreme Thousand Entwined Sword with true Wood Sword Intent.

However, this move is not primarily defensive, but focuses on control!

After Ye Chen thrust his sword, the sword light split into countless strands.

Each strand of sword light twined like silk, intertwining chaotically.

The five Primordial Embryo Realm demons charging at Ye Chen were instantly separated by these sword lights.

Demonic Qi surged, bursting out.

However,

these sword lights appeared extremely resilient.

Ye Chen’s sword moves flowed continuously, releasing even more sword lights.

He used the Heaven-Ascending Step, effortlessly charging to the side of a Primordial Embryo Realm demon, slicing upwards with a diagonal strike.

”Whoosh!”

The chilling sword light, accompanied by extreme sharpness, directly sliced the Primordial Embryo Realm demon’s body obliquely in half.

Green demon blood splattered.

Ye Chen had already moved to another demon’s front.

This demon’s body was bulging, mouth agape, brewing powerful Demon Light in its mouth, ready to blast out.

This was the Demon Light Tribulation of the Demon Race.

Ye Chen was no stranger to it.

Facing the demon preparing the Demon Light Tribulation, Ye Chen’s response was simple, thrusting his sword straight into the demon’s open mouth.

This sword’s speed was incredibly fast. Before the Demon Light Tribulation could erupt, Ye Chen’s sword had already pierced through the demon’s mouth, through its back of the head, and then swept sideways, slicing the demon’s half head apart.

In the distance,

Ren Yong watched this scene, his heart filled with shock.

It was his first time witnessing Ye Chen in action.

The explosion of power, unbelievable speed, precise timing and angle with the sword, and battle intuition were all simply incredible.

He finally understood why his teacher He Dong personally approached him, asking him to keep an eye on Ye Chen secretly.

The potential of Ye Chen was far more terrifying than the rumors he had heard before!

Moreover,

the force targeting Ye Chen was also incredibly strong!

One must know,

this battlefield originally had scattered demons, but now, suddenly so many appeared, and yet no Dragon Guard Warrior or Defense Army Warrior reported it. The hand behind this was too big.

Previously,

Ren Yong suspected the Vice Commander of the Dragon Guard, Liu Chuantian.

Now,

he suspected it was Prince Yong, Zhou Chengyun, pulling the strings.

Liu Chuantian could meddle in the affairs within the Dragon Guard but couldn’t interfere with the Defense Army’s matters.

Only Zhou Chengyun had that power!

”General, we can’t continue anymore!” said a general following Ren Yong alongside Ye Chen, his expression extremely grave.

At this point, anyone with a little sense could guess something was going on.

Continuing this matter might lead to an unmanageable situation!

”General, let’s call it off. Let us personally escort Ye Chen back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. Let’s end this matter here!” said another Dragon Guard general.

This vortex was too big.

Ren Yong was merely a Centurion of the Dragon Guard.

Getting involved in this vortex meant risking his future, even his life!

Ren Yong glanced at the group of people beside him, then once more towards Ye Chen’s direction.

At this moment.

Ye Chen had already finished the battle, collected all the demon bones, and without hiding his aura, continued to roam chaotically in Demon Suppression Valley!

Ren Yong said indifferently, ”Look, what is he doing?”

The generals beside Ren Yong did not reply.

Ren Yong continued, ”He’s killing the Demon Race.”

”General...”

Ren Yong raised his hand slightly, saying, ”Indeed, this matter is risky, I won’t force you to stick with me, but I have one request, before I decide to end this, no one shall disclose my whereabouts. If anyone does, from now on, they are no longer my brothers.”

Ye Chen hasn’t done anything wrong.

He’s fighting for humanity.

However.

It’s understandable that the Demon Race wants to kill him.

But even within the human race, there are those on this battlefield that want to kill him.

To kill him.

They even wavered the Dragon Guard’s resolve!

If this matter isn’t taken care of once it’s spread.

The Great Zhou Dragon Guards and Iron Blood Army will become the greatest laughingstock!

Moreover, by then, who would still be willing to fight for the belief?

Who would still dare to trust the Dragon Guard?”

”General, I am willing to follow you and continue investigating!”

”General, we admit our mistakes, please quell your anger!”

”General, we’ll join you in rooting out all the corrupt within the Dragon Guard!”

Ren Yong nodded, ”Keep moving!”

......

Ye Chen unleashed his aura and dashed forward.

In less than half an hour, he encountered three batches of the Demon Race barring his way.

He killed one batch himself.

The remaining two batches were eradicated by the suddenly appearing Dragon Guard.

Ye Chen was even more certain that there were major figures of the Dragon Guard secretly watching and that they harbored no malice towards him.

However.

If this continued.

He might draw out more of the Demon Race.

And uncover some clues in the Dragon Guard Army’s maneuvers allowing the Demon Race passage.

But it wasn’t nearly enough!

If Zhou Chengyun’s men don’t personally appear, he won’t be able to topple Zhou Chengyun!

The Three Thousand Dragon Guards are spread throughout Demon Suppression Valley.

The Dragon Guard is everywhere.

But not one Dragon Guard has yet made a move against him, Ye Chen realized, Zhou Chengyun wouldn’t let the Dragon Guard act personally.

Zhou Chengyun is meticulous; he definitely wouldn’t pin all his hopes on the Demon Race to eliminate Ye Chen, so the most likely scenario is... Zhou Chengyun will use the Celestial Sword Sect to take action.

If that’s the case.

Then he should head straight to the area overseen by the Celestial Sword Sect’s people.

Give them a chance!

Let them show themselves one by one!

The Celestial Sword Sect’s people, in Demon Suppression Valley, primarily clear the Demon Race in the eastern region.

Ye Chen no longer roamed aimlessly; he determinedly headed east.

Ren Yong, who had been following Ye Chen all along, also guessed Ye Chen’s intention.

He furrowed his brow.

Initially, he thought he had everything under control.

But now, his absolutely trustworthy Dragon Guard members had successively acted, helping Ye Chen intercept and kill batches of the Demon Race.

If Ye Chen continued recklessly, Ren Yong would have to act personally.

If he stepped in, the game could only conclude.

Ren Yong was somewhat worried about losing control of the situation and immediately said, ”Send someone to find Grand Commander Qin, ensure this matter is discussed in front of Grand Commander Qin, and do not mention a word to anyone else!”

”Yes, General!”

One leader accompanying Ren Yong quickly departed.

At this moment, Ye Chen was once again intercepted and besieged by a batch of the Demon Race.

Ren Yong said, ”Attack!”

The last general beside him immediately summoned the batch of Dragon Guards behind him, charging forward to help Ye Chen break free.

After Ye Chen broke through the encirclement, he continued heading east.

On the road, no more Demon Race appeared!

He knew in his heart, the real big fish, was about to bite!

Suddenly.

Ye Chen felt a dangerous instinct rising, his rushing figure suddenly shifted to the side.

”Whoosh!”

A sharp sound broke through the air.

An arrow hit the ground beside Ye Chen.

”Boom!”

The ground exploded into a massive pit, dust rolling.

Ye Chen looked towards the direction the arrow came from.

A man in red attire, holding an oversized bow, smiled coldly at Ye Chen.

It was the chief disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect, Dongfang Xiu!
