CHAPTER 456: CHAPTER 326: YAN CITY LORD, YAN JIU

"Hold on. I dare to ask the Envoy, if the use of Hidden Weapons within the city results in imprisonment in the dungeon, then how do you account for his attack on me with a Hidden Weapon earlier in the Basic-level Public Area?" Ye Lingyue’s expression suddenly changed as she pointed towards Zhan Gang in the crowd.

Zhan Gang, who had been enjoying the spectacle, had his expression drastically change upon being singled out by Ye Lingyue.

"Hong Shisan, you must not slander people!" Zhan Gang cursed loudly.

"Whether it’s slander can be easily confirmed by asking anyone from the Basic-level Public Area. My lord, I then dare to ask, should he not be taken to the dungeon as well? Or is it that this man is an old acquaintance of the Envoy, allowing the State Official to set fires while forbidding the common people even to light a lamp?" Ye Lingyue coldly scoffed.

Many in Yan City No.9 were aware of the relationship between Zhan Gang and Zhan Feng.

The envoys behind the Yan Yi Envoy were also quietly discussing among themselves.

"What a cunning lad, not only do you resist arrest, but you also malign this envoy. Today, if this envoy does not teach you a lesson, how can he stand in Yan City No.9?" Zhan Feng, in extreme anger, bellowed. As his words fell.

Inside his body, a thick Primordial Power began to circulate, which was rather strange. By his side, a spiral-shaped fiery chain appeared, floating next to him.

The chain, as thick as an adult man’s arm, was not made from ordinary metal, but churned with scorching flames.

Ye Lingyue’s pupils shrunk sharply, realizing that this fiery chain was no ordinary object.

The Yan Yi Envoys of Yan City No.9 were all experts in the Reincarnation Realm, and this familiar Yan Envoy of Zhan Gang was clearly not just an ordinary envoy. His cultivation had already reached the peak of the Second Realm of Reincarnation.

Among the crowd, those who recognized the item exclaimed aloud.

"It’s the Corrosive Soul Chain!"

The so-called Shattering Element Chain was a powerful spiritual artifact refined by martial artists who had survived both the Reincarnation Fire Tribulation and the Reincarnation Gold Tribulation, using their primordial Reincarnation Fire and melding it with the Reincarnation Gold.

Unlike normal celestial, earth, mysterious, and yellow-level spiritual artifacts, this type of spiritual artifact would not be revealed on ordinary days and was only used during competitions, possessing a terrifying power no less than that of an Earth-level Spiritual Artifact.

With the emergence of the Corrosive Soul Chain, Ye Lingyue felt as if the Primordial Power around her was being drained away.

It seems that the Corrosive Soul Chain also has the function of disrupting the aggregation of Primordial Power.

"This person is very powerful." Beads of sweat continuously streamed down from Ye Lingyue’s forehead.

"Sister, Aguduo, if there’s a chance, flee immediately and find Jin Wu Old Monster," Ye Lingyue whispered. The two women behind her immediately understood.

They also knew that this Yan Yi Envoy was targeting them, and with their combined strength, they were no match for the peak of the Reincarnation Second Realm’s Zhan Feng.

The three sprang into action, dashing in three different directions.

"Thinking of running? It’s not so easy." Zhan Feng snarled softly. His Erosion Cloud Soul Chain split into three, shooting explosively in three different directions.

The Soul Chain pursued relentlessly as if it had eyes.

Just then, with a low shout from Zhan Feng, the Corrosive Soul Chain danced around, surrounding Zhan Feng so tightly that nothing could get through.

Suddenly, taking advantage of a feint by Ye Lingyue, Star Saliva burst forth.

To protect himself, Zhan Feng had no choice but to retract the chain.

"Just injured my brother, today, I will make you beg for death."

Enraged to see the two women escaping from the Intermediate Public Zone, one to the south and one to the north, Zhan Feng’s anger flared.

The Corrosive Soul Chain enveloped Ye Lingyue layers upon layers, like a cage of fire. Amidst the fierce Reincarnation Gold Power and blazing fierce flames, Ye Lingyue was trapped within, unable to break free. She could even hear the sizzling sounds

Hong Shisan should be dead by now, right?

Zhan Feng prepared to retract the Corrosive Soul Chain. Even a Martial Artist from the Elixir Realm, let alone the Reincarnation Realm, as long as they did not surpass the Reincarnation Three Paths, no one could withstand his Corrosive Soul Chain.

This special Martial Art was a reward he received after making great contributions while in the Underworld Yama Palace.

But just as the Corrosive Soul Chain was about to retract, Zhan Feng suddenly widened his eyes.

The Corrosive Soul Chain disappeared inch by inch, as if it was being swallowed up by someone all at once.

How is this possible?

Zhan Feng desperately tried to retract the Corrosive Soul Chain, but it was to no avail. It completely disappeared as if swallowed by something.

Zhan Feng didn’t even know what had happened.

The Corrosive Soul Chain disappeared, and a person walked out.

He should probably not be called a person anymore.

His face, blistered layer by layer due to the Reincarnation Fire, had his clothes and skin scorched and tattered, yet despite such appearance, there was a bright smile on that person’s face.

Like the clear sun that emerges from the clouds after a torrential rain.

That smile was beautiful and dazzling.

At that moment, Zhan Feng even forgot that the person in front of him was his enemy.

He also forgot why his Corrosive Soul Chain had suddenly disappeared.

All he saw was a finger, that person who was clearly burned like charcoal, raised his right hand.

That right hand, inexplicably different from the other severely burned parts, was as white and delicate as jade.

Such a finger would never belong to a man.

A finger reached out, gently, as if dusting off dust, touching Zhan Feng’s forehead.

Zhan Feng even forgot to resist.

He stared blankly at the person who walked out of the flames.

Despite her skin being ulcerated, and her eyebrows and hair almost completely burned away, those captivating eyes seemed to possess endless magic power.

A chilling power penetrated into Zhan Feng’s body.

Boom—

A Blood Mist spread.

Yan Yi Envoy Zhan Feng turned into a mist of blood, and no one saw what Cultivation Technique the opponent had used.

Devil, everyone was silenced, they all thought that person was surely dead.

After that one finger, as if having expended all her strength, Ye Lingyue collapsed thunderously to the ground.

"What in the world is going on?"

An extremely stern voice descended from the sky.

Dozens of Yan Yi Envoys, and a man in a black robe.

The man’s face was covered by a ferocious Yama Ghost Mask.

Even with the mask on, the man had just witnessed the gruesome death of Zhan Feng.

That eerie finger made the man even more furious at this mysterious man causing trouble in Yan City No.9.

The man’s aura and attire, if Ye Lingyue were still conscious at this moment, she would definitely remember that terrifying man, Wu Zhong.

But he is not Wu Zhong; he is the Lord of Yan City No.9, Yan Jiu.
