Jiang Biewang could not understand what had just happened.
What was that blood dragon? Why was this bastard so strong? Did Ye Chen not have mortal roots?
He had never shown signs of such strength five years agoâŚ
Heck, he was not even a martial artist back then?
Jiang Biewang was filled with confusion, and simply could not accept that this was happening.
Soon, Ye Chen arrived in front of Jiang Biewang, and the edge of the Dragonslayer Sword was placed against the latterâs neck.
Jiang Biewang saw a pair of cold eyes gazing at him, causing his heart to palpitate,
âYou⌠Who exactly are you?â
Jiang Biewang asked in a hushed tone. At the same time, he felt the sword draw blood. If it went any deeper, it would sever his artery, and he would bleed to death.
Furthermore, the blood dragon behind Ye Chen was still staring at him. Cold sweat instantly drenched Jiang Biewangâs back.
He wanted to use the Jiang familyâs secret technique to escape, but soon realized that it was impossible. A mysterious force had enveloped and restrained him!
âYe Chen, youâre a member of the Jiang family. You canât kill me.â
Jiang Biewang could only say this. However, the sword in Ye Chenâs hand continued to slice deeper, and deeper.
âYouâre wrong. Iâm not a member of the Jiang family. I wasnât in the past, Iâm not now, and 1 definitely wonât be in the future.â
âI didnât want to lull you, but since you confessed your crimes so proudly, 1 canât let you live.â
Ye Chenâs indifferent voice rang out, devoid of any emotion.
Moments later, the Dragonslayer Sword flashed, and fresh blood sprayed out.
Jiang Biewang was now a headless corpse!
Ye Chen had wanted to question Jiang Biewang about the Jiang family, but he sensed a few auras coming in his direction. If he did not grab the spirit stone and make a run for it, it might be too late.
Without hesitation, Ye Chen channeled his true qi into his feet and rushed toward the extraterrestrial spirit stone at the center of the formation. He grabbed it, and then felt a strong burning sensation in his hand.
It was as if he was holding a ball of lava that was overflowing with spiritual energy!
âPut it down!â
At this moment, shouts of anger rang out, and more than a dozen powerful experts rushed toward Ye Chen!
Other than the experts from the Martial Arts Department, there were also experts from Huiâan Province!
At this moment, their eyes were filled with envy and desire. After all, everyone wanted the treasure for themselves. However, Ye Chen had obtained it first, and there was no way they were going to let him get away with it!
Ye Chen ignored them and stuffed the extraterrestrial spirit stone into the Samsara Graveyard.
When they saw the item in Ye Chenâs hand disappear, the experts narrowed their eyes and roared, âBrat, where did you hide it? Hand it over immediately!â
One of them even brandished his longsword and pointed it at Ye Chen.
âThere are some things that you shouldnât interfere with. Young man, hand over the item and we can spare your life!â
Ye Chen stuck his hands in his pockets and swept his gaze across the crowd. He said, âFirst come, first served. Since 1 have the treasure, what right do you have to take it from me?â
The expert who drew his sword sneered, âThe phenomenon happened in Huiâan Province, so it should be kept by someone from Huiâ an Province! Iâve never seen you here before. Thatâs enough! 1 donât want to repeat myself a third time. Hand it over and you can leave Thousand Peaks Mountain in one piece.â
Soon, more and more experts rushed over, and soon, a hundred people had surrounded Ye Chen!
He would not be able to escape even if he had wings!
Despite this, Ye Chen remained unfazed.
An Ruoying and Zhu Ya also arrived at this moment. When they saw this tense scene, their expressions changed drastically.
âHeâs dead. The man pointing the sword at Mr. Ye is the head of the Zhang family in Huiâan Province. Heâs very strong and wields a lot of influence in this areaâŚâ An Ruoying subconsciously said.
âWhy did Mr. Ye take that thing? Heâs alone. How could he dare to snatch the treasure in front of so many experts? These experts are much stronger than Chen Bao. Little Ya, hurry up and persuade Mr. Ye to hand it over!â
Zhu Ya shook her head and frowned. She was worried about Ye Chen.
Huiâan Province was not Jiangnan Province, and Dragon Soul was not around to help him. How could Mr. Ye face this many experts alone?
However, she also knew that there was no way that Ye Chen would hand the treasure over. From the fact that he had made the trip here, and even predicted the phenomenon and the location of the treasure, she knew that he was determined to leave with the treasure.
Suddenly, she thought of something and grabbed An Ruoyingâs wrist. She said agitatedly, âRuoying, are we good friends?â
An Ruoying frowned. âWhat nonsense are you spouting? Havenât we known each other for more than ten years?â
Zhu Ya continued, âRuoying, Iâve never begged you for anything, but this time I hope you can help Mr YeâŚâ
âThe An family has a lot of influence in Huiâan Province. They are definitely be able to speak up for Mr. Ye.â
Just as An Ruoying was about to speak, a few figures walked out from the crowd. The leader of the group was a middle-aged man with a full beard and a dignified bearing.
âDadâŚâ
An Ruoyingâs voice was very soft, and carried a trace of fear.
The bearded man was An Ruoyingâs father, An Sushan!
An Sushanâs gaze was originally on Ye Chen, but when he heard the voice, he turned his head abruptly and glared at An Ruoying. He asked in a deep voice, âRuoying, why are you here?â
Then, he noticed Zhu Ya and said, âThis isnât a place you two should be. Uncle Xu, send them down the mountain.â
An elder walked over to An Ruoying, but before he could say anything An Ruoying stepped past him and said, âI have something to say to my dad!â
âDad, that boy is Zhu Yaâs friend. Can you help save him? His current situation is very dangerousâŚâ
An Sushan was stunned. He looked at Ye Chen and sneered.
âAs long as that kid hands over the treasure, we wonât hurt him. However, if he doesnât know whatâs good for him, then Iâm afraid that heâs destined to die here today!â
He then looked at Zhu Ya and said, âZhu Ya, since that kid is your friend, you should persuade him. If not, this kid wonât be able to live for more than five minutes!â
Zhu Yaâs expression grew increasingly unsightly. She took a step forward and arrived in front of An Sushan. She said softly, âUncle An, this item was first discovered by Mr. Ye. Why does he have to hand it over? Isnât the rule for ownerless items first come, first served?â
An Sushan sneered, and his voice rang out, âZhu Ya, this is Hui âan Province, not Jiangnan Province! Moreover, Huaxiaâs martial arts world has always abided by the law of the jungle.. Since that kid doesnât have the strength to guard this treasure, he doesnât deserve it!â
