[PS: Thank you everyone for introducing friends to subscribe, thank you!]

Xu Zigang was furious, thinking he could easily kill Ye Tianchen, but never expected Ye Tianchen to battle him for over half an hour without being killed. For someone as talented as him, this was an unbearable blow. From birth until now, Xu Zigang had always been the prodigy among the younger generation, unmatched by anyone. But when Ye Tianchen appeared, his talent and perseverance seemed even stronger than Xu Zigang’s, which he couldn’t tolerate. He must kill Ye Tianchen.

Buzz!

Divine Power surged, the Power of Slaughter was overwhelmingly unmatched. Xu Zigang unleashed all his strength to use the spear in his hand to completely annihilate Ye Tianchen.

Bang!

Facing the relentless Xu Zigang and his surging spear, Ye Tianchen punched a “Overlord Fist” and retreated quickly, not daring to linger. He sensed the residence’s Four Phases Golden Body Formation showing signs of loosening, and if this continued, his mother and sister would be in grave danger. He couldn’t afford to waste time here.

Ye Tianchen quickly retreated, intending to rush to the residence to rescue his mother and sister, but Xu Zigang read his intention and immediately appeared behind him. The spear came slashing directly towards Ye Tianchen’s head. Ye Tianchen frowned, summoned the Taie Sword with a thought, and blocked the assault with immense Power of Might.

Clang!

Ye Tianchen was sent flying. Xu Zigang’s cultivation realm was higher and his combat strength stronger. Ye Tianchen’s ability to withstand till now was impressive, but Xu Zigang was truly enraged, vowing to kill him, unable to leave such a formidable threat to persist.

“Taie Sword, didn’t expect you to have such treasures. Even one of the Ancient Ten Divine Swords, the Taie Sword, is in your possession. That’s an extra delightful surprise!” Xu Zigang sneered at Ye Tianchen.

Swoosh!

Ye Tianchen made his move, no longer dodging or evading. He knew Xu Zigang was very powerful, and killing him in a short time was impossible. Xu Zigang had also seen his attempt to escape, unlikely to let him off easily. He had to find a way to block Xu Zigang’s attacks and rush to the residence to rescue his mother and sister, otherwise, it would be too dangerous. Ye Tianchen hadn’t expected not only Xu Zigang to be so powerful but also the Old Demon to be unfathomable. This time, it was extremely tricky, uncertain of survival!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The fierce battle erupted with Xu Zigang and Ye Tianchen engaged in a brutal fight, their powerful Martial Arts True Power sweeping across Zhongnanhai, shocking everyone. Ye Tianchen wielded the Taie Sword, unleashing formidable Sword Qi, while Xu Zigang matched with spear’s divine power, constantly assaulting. Ye Tianchen couldn’t defeat him yet, only able to fight with all his might. If he couldn’t block Xu Zigang’s Power of Slaughter, he would die. If he died, he wouldn’t be able to protect the four leaders or save his mother and sister.

“You’re just at Mid Martial Venerate cultivation realm, yet displaying such combat strength is already extraordinary performance. It seems as Yang Gui said, you are an anomaly with combat strength surpassing your cultivation realm.” Xu Zigang thrust his spear targeting the sky.

“Enough talk, if you won’t let me leave, then let’s fight to the death!” Ye Tianchen coldly said to Xu Zigang.

“Oh? Are you anxious now? Did you sense your family is in danger?” Xu Zigang sneered cruelly.

“You dispatched Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui.”

Ye Tianchen realized it immediately. He had set up the “Four Phases Golden Body Formation” around the residence and infused a strand of Divine Thought into it to protect his mother and sister’s safety. Sensing strong martial artists attacking the formation, the only ones he could think of were Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui. Now, hearing Xu Zigang, it was obvious he sent them.

“Since you’re going to die, to spare your loved ones’ grief, I’ll send them off first. Isn’t that kind of me? How should you thank me?” Xu Zigang grinned sinisterly.

“As the third top-ranked War King of China and a prodigy among the younger generation, you tarnish your reputation by attacking civilians without shame. Fighting you is truly a disgrace.” Ye Tianchen said disdainfully.

“Victory or defeat, nothing disgraceful. Once you’re annihilated, your shame and glory will vanish. I’ll make sure you all disappear now.”

Xu Zigang’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, and the spear in his hand had been thrown into the sky. At the same time, the seals on his hands were constantly changing, injecting a powerful Martial Arts True Power into the spear. The spear instantly transformed into a massive Azure Dragon, coiling in the sky. Xu Zigang made a swift move and stood on the dragon’s head, sitting cross-legged, emanating a vast and terrifying Slaughter Aura that made the entire space tremble.

“Fiery Flame Azure Dragon, kill!” Xu Zigang shouted loudly, and the Azure Dragon coiled in the sky opened its mouth and shot out a blue light, piercing through the void and disappearing into the space. This was an incredibly strange and powerful Martial Arts Divine Skill that Ye Tianchen had never witnessed before.

Boom!

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen felt an immense Power of Slaughter coming at him. Without even having time to react, he instinctively raised the Taie Sword to block, resulting in a deafening explosion. The space around him cracked open, but fortunately, the Taie Sword emitted a Power of Might that protected him. Otherwise, this one attack would have obliterated him, as the blue light from the Azure Dragon’s mouth disappeared one moment and appeared before him the next, moving at an extreme speed, impossible to guard against, almost killing him.

Poof!

Although the Power of Might from the Taie Sword protected Ye Tianchen somewhat, the blue light was incredibly fierce and strong. Xu Zigang sat cross-legged on the Azure Dragon’s head, using Divine Arts to control this blue light. As it reached Ye Tianchen, its power increased tremendously, knocking Ye Tianchen along with the Taie Sword, flying away.

Ye Tianchen rolled a few times in the air, holding the Taie Sword to steady himself, his eyes coldly fixed on the front, even holding his breath because the blue light had disappeared again. He did not know where it might attack from, its power too great, and even with the Taie Sword, he could not completely block its strength. That strike had already injured him, making the situation perilous.

“The biggest mistake you made was daring to obstruct me; anyone who blocks me must die!” Xu Zigang said indifferently.

Ye Tianchen coldly glanced at Xu Zigang, seeing him sitting cross-legged on the Azure Dragon’s head, his hands constantly changing seals as if controlling that blue light. This blue light was very powerful and quite peculiar, able to disappear into the void for no apparent reason. Even probing with strong Divine Thought, it was difficult to capture it, suggesting it was one of Xu Zigang’s Great Killing Skills.

Break!

The void above Ye Tianchen’s head cracked open, and a blue light swiftly slashed towards his head. This time, Ye Tianchen did not use the Taie Sword to block, but rather vanished from where he was. He activated the powerful Martial Arts True Power within him, bringing the Divine Movement Skill to perfection, and disappeared instantly.

“It’s useless; this Fiery Flame Azure Dragon attack is different from other killing skills. Once it locks onto your aura, no matter where you escape to, it will instantly kill. Even if you tire it out, you’ll end up dying of exhaustion,” Xu Zigang sneered.

Bang!

Bang

Bang!

Every time Ye Tianchen appeared in the air, the void behind him would explode, caused by the pursuing blue light, extremely perilous. Several times, it nearly struck him, leading surely to annihilation. The blue light was too powerful, capable of tearing through the void and, if it hits a person, would certainly obliterate them in an instant.

“Can’t escape… impossible…”

Before Xu Zigang could finish his sarcastic words, Ye Tianchen suddenly appeared right in front of him, only a millimeter away. Startled, Xu Zigang struck with a palm at Ye Tianchen, but Ye Tianchen had already vanished. By the time Xu Zigang came to his senses, the blue light couldn’t stop immediately, and it came towards him instead.

Thud!

With a loud explosion, the sky burst into clouds of blue mist, thick with the scent of blood. Ye Tianchen glanced coldly, turning to leave, but as he was leaving, a compass-like treasure blocked him, with Scrofulous Old Ghost appearing before him.

“Leaving just like that? Shouldn’t you leave something behind?” Scrofulous Old Ghost asked with a smile.

“Scrofulous Old Ghost, step aside; he’s mine to kill.” Xu Zigang’s voice rang out, he had emerged from the blue mist with bloodstains on him, looking injured by his own Divine Arts, his eyes filled with anger and murderous intent, glaring coldly at Ye Tianchen, wishing to tear him apart.

“Don’t be careless, kid, this ant still has some fight in him, better kill him quickly. The old fellows from Zhongnanhai aren’t here, and the Dragon Crystal is nowhere to be found, I suspect this has something to do with this ant.” Scrofulous Old Ghost coldly said, glaring at Ye Tianchen.

“Hand over the old fellows from Zhongnanhai and the Dragon Crystal, and I’ll give you a quick death!” Xu Zigang commanded forcefully, pointing at Ye Tianchen with his spear.
