Supreme Sword God

Chapter 455: Chapter 454: Sorry, I’m a Little Late!

Moving the position of the Heavenly Gate is a power inherently possessed by the Heavenly Gate itself.

The aliens are not fools. When they descend into the world of humans, the fluctuations of the Heavenly Gate are detected by the True Martial Hall of the human tribe. If they cannot adapt, they would be surrounded by the True Martial Hall as soon as they exit the Heavenly Gate.

Therefore, every time the aliens descend, they reposition the Heavenly Gate at the last moment.

As such, while the True Martial Hall can monitor the descent of aliens, it cannot pinpoint the exact coordinates, only a general area.

Ye Chen controlled the movement of the Heavenly Gate for a moment, and then it could move no more.

After all, the general coordinates were already set; any movement could only occur within a certain region.

Ye Chen took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and suddenly formed a double-hand seal, releasing a force that entered the Heavenly Gate.

”Rumble!”

The Heavenly Gate trembled, and immediately, a unique power surged forth, tearing a fissure in the space ahead.

Excited, Ye Chen’s figure flashed as he rushed in instantly.

As he dashed out, he also directly retrieved the Heavenly Gate!

This object must not be left behind, as the number of pursuing aliens behind him was unknown. If they rushed into the human world, it would be troublesome.

”Hmm?”

As soon as Ye Chen rushed out, he found himself surrounded by swirling mist. This mist contained some toxicity that affected the flow of qi blood.

No big deal.

Such slight impact could be completely ignored by martial artists with Mortal Transformation Realm cultivation, let alone Ye Chen whose sword body had reached great completion.

”This desolate place has no one around. I’ll have to find a place with people to ask for directions after I get out.”

Having made up his mind, Ye Chen was about to leave when suddenly, a whistling sound arose, and a man in a blood-colored robe swooped over.

The man’s figure stopped in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen looked at the man, and cold light burst from his eyes!

Ye Chen was very familiar with the patterns on the blood-colored robe; assassins from the Blood Robe Tower wore such attire!

Back then, when Hua Qianxue took him to the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, they were intercepted by assassins from the Blood Robe Tower.

Later, in Jiulong City of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Prime Minister’s Mansion also deployed assassins from the Blood Robe Tower to assassinate him!

Of course, Ye Chen’s enmity with the Blood Robe Tower was not particularly deep.

But Ye Chen knew that the Blood Robe Tower’s assassins had targeted Hua Qianxue multiple times.

He had also promised Hua Qianxue to cut down any Blood Robe Tower members he encountered, regardless of their pervasive influence across Cangzhou!

The assassin from the Blood Robe Tower looked at Ye Chen with a face full of confusion.

Although the Blood Eagle had not disclosed the identity of the esteemed guest, they all guessed it to be the aliens. But now, how come a human appeared?

Even though he couldn’t figure it out, he had to do what needed to be done.

The assassin from the Blood Robe Tower cupped his hands towards Ye Chen and said, ”Young Master, this place has been detected by the True Martial Hall. Lord Blood Eagle is dealing with the True Martial Guards. Please follow me ahead first; once Lord Blood Eagle kills those True Martial Guards, he will immediately come to join us.”

Ye Chen’s eyes glimmered.

He had guessed correctly.

There really was someone to connect with, and it turns out the True Martial Hall had also detected it.

It seemed that Lv Ye really was on the fringes, as he didn’t know such crucial information.

The escorts were from the Blood Robe Tower, and Ye Chen dispelled the notion of investigating them.

An assassin organization like the Blood Robe Tower wasn’t anything good, and investigating assassins sent on ordered tasks would yield nothing.

Ye Chen didn’t rush to slay the guy in front of him but rather asked, ”How many people from the True Martial Hall came?”

”Twenty-one.”

”How many did you bring?”

”Twelve.”

With Ye Chen’s understanding of the True Martial Hall, such tasks concerning small Heavenly Gates would at least be of a three-star level, meaning the twenty-one people from the True Martial Hall were all Three-star True Martial Guards.

Aside from himself as an exception, most who could become Three-star True Martial Guards were martial artists of the Unity Realm.

Assassin organizations like the Blood Robe Tower wouldn’t dare act too conspicuously, especially since they were here to meet aliens, and wouldn’t dispatch too strong people lest they be noticed.

Twelve assassins from the Blood Robe Tower, with one in front of him, meant eleven were preparing to take down twenty-one Three-star True Martial Guards, unless the power disparity was particularly vast.

”Did you bring powerful people?” Ye Chen asked.

”Young Master, Lord Blood Eagle is a Silver-level Assassin with Seventh-Layer Unity Realm Cultivation.”

Ye Chen frowned.

This level of power shouldn’t be able to take down twenty-one Three-star True Martial Guards!

The Blood Robe Tower assassin thought their forces weren’t strong enough, causing discontent in their esteemed guest, so he explained, ”Young Master, sending overly strong people to meet you is likely to attract attention...”

Ye Chen interrupted before he finished, ”How are you confident you can take down their True Martial Guards?”

The assassin from the Blood Robe Tower smiled and said, ”Originally, we only intended to hold them up, but unexpectedly, a small group of these True Martial Guards chose to retreat, plus Lord Blood Eagle’s formidable combat power...”

”Ye Chen couldn’t be bothered listening to his nonsense and interrupted him, ”Who are the True Martial Guards?!”

”Among the retreating True Martial Guards was someone from the Qi family in Celestial Cyan City, named Qi Cultivator, who informed Lord Blood Eagle of the position of another batch of True Martial Guards, before running off.

Among those Lord Blood Eagle is surrounding, there is someone named Ren Ying, who looks quite attractive with a good figure, but alas, Lord Blood Eagle loves to play with corpses.”

”Where are they?” Ye Chen’s voice grew heavier, his murderous intent boiling!

Qi Cultivator, that bastard, this time he must be killed!

The Blood Robe Tower assassin pointed ahead and said, ”About fifteen miles away.”

”Hmm!”

Ye Chen nodded, and in the next moment, he drew his sword instantly, slashing out with a dazzling sword light.

The Blood Robe Tower assassin never understood what happened until his moment of death.

After killing the man from the Blood Robe Tower, Ye Chen immediately burst forth at the highest speed, rushing forward!

A distance of about fifteen miles didn’t take Ye Chen half a quarter-hour to reach.

By then, he could already hear loud rumblings and feel the surging airflow in the air.

On the battlefield.

The mist was dispersing under the impact of violent power.

The marshland was blasted with huge pits one after another.

The Blood Eagle of the Blood Robe Tower, along with ten assassins, was madly attacking Ren Ying and others.

Xiao Mo was already heavily injured, and several other True Martial Guards were also gravely wounded.

Ren Ying and Lu Feiyu, along with the remaining True Martial Guards, shielded the wounded in the center, resisting the onslaught of the Blood Robe Tower assassins.

”Ren Ying, I advise you to stop resisting. Though I like to play with corpses, I do not like playing with incomplete corpses!” Blood Eagle brandished a long blade, laughing coldly.

Blood flowed continuously from Ren Ying’s mouth, but her expression remained steadfast, ”The True Martial Guards will never compromise. You Blood Robe Tower scoundrels collude with aliens and disrupt our True Martial Hall’s actions. One day, the True Martial Hall will flatten your Blood Robe Tower!”

Blood Eagle’s eagle-like eyes radiated a bloodthirsty desire.

”Hmph, you’re all at death’s door and still thinking of flattening the Blood Robe Tower? Utterly foolish, ignorant fools. Don’t blame me for my ruthless methods!”

With those words, the assassins of the Blood Robe Tower initiated another wave of fierce attacks.

Blood Eagle directly charged at Ren Ying, slashing out a wave of boundless bloody light, with a vicious, eerie aura permeating the blood-colored blade light.

Ren Ying swung her sword horizontally, but she couldn’t withstand Blood Eagle’s slash. She and her sword were lifted by the stroke.

Lu Feiyu flew into the air, blocking the continued blood-colored blade light that was targeting Ren Ying. At her palm’s center, lightning flashed, and she struck out a palm.

”Boom!”

The blood-colored blade light scattered, but Lu Feiyu’s body was like a kite with a broken string, flying backward, blood splattering from her mouth and nose!

”With such petty strength, you think of blocking me? Overestimating yourself, now go die!” Blood Eagle shouted, swiftly charging towards the direction where Ren Ying and Lu Feiyu were thrown, slashing out another sweeping cut, cold blood-colored blade light enveloping the two.

Just as Ren Ying and Lu Feiyu were about to perish,

Suddenly, a crisp clanging sword cry echoed throughout the heavens and earth, and handleless sharp swords whistled in, illuminating the sky with brilliant sword light. The dazzling edge utterly shredded the blood-colored blade light!

”Sorry for arriving a bit late!”

A voice sounded, followed immediately by Ye Chen’s figure appearing, landing in the field, standing before Blood Eagle, pointing his sword at Blood Eagle.

Seven top-grade spiritual swords danced and spiraled around him, leaving trails of radiant light!
