The Langya clan? They no longer need to exist!

"Slash!"

Ye Qing swung his sword!

This time, it was no longer a casual flick, but a strike with added force!

This matter should end now!

..."Not good!"

Seeing this, the gray-robed elder's Face changed drastically, and he urgently shouted:

"Young Master, run!!!"

From that previous sword strike, he had clearly realized that he was probably no match for Ye Qing!

If they didn't leave now, they would all die here today!

But.

Gongsun Jue was very unwilling.

After thinking for a moment, he sneered and ordered the elder:

"Given Ye Qing's strength, running is probably futile. We can only rely on teleportation!"

"Uncle Fu, activate the teleportation!"

"Additionally, you attack! While teleporting, help cover our retreat and try to see if you can capture Ye Qing!"

He had his own thoughts:

"Although rumors say Ye Qing single-handedly destroyed two Supreme Aristocratic Families..."

"But rumors must have exaggerated and untrue elements!"

"Moreover, the rumors say Ye Qing is only at the Nascent Soul Realm, but now I see he's clearly at the third layer of Soul Transformation!"

"This shows the rumors are completely unreliable!"

Gongsun Jue couldn't help but think:

"This Ye Qing might truly have extraordinary combat power, able to fight above his Realm."

"But after all, his Realm is low. This explosive combat power definitely won't last long!"

"I previously collected intelligence on him and found he rarely engages in prolonged battles."

"As long as we stall him, wait for his combat power burst period to pass and he falls into weakness..."

"Uncle Fu might even kill him in return!"

"If we can really kill him, not only can we obtain those three Disciples and the Legacy, but also the secrets on Ye Qing's person!"

"This is a heaven-sent Opportunity!"

To become stronger, for that tempting Legacy, Gongsun Jue felt it was worth letting Uncle Fu try!

As for himself?

Of course, he would activate the teleportation first and leave this place immediately!

After all, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!

...Hearing this.

The gray-robed elder felt like vomiting blood.

At this moment, he understood that the most rational course of action was to flee desperately without regard for anything else!

If Gongsun Jue attracted Ye Qing's attention during the teleportation.

He might have a certain probability of escaping!

But as Gongsun Jue's guardian, he absolutely could not flee alone.

Otherwise, even if he escaped, he would still die!

Therefore, in the blink of an eye.

The elder had no other choice and could only follow Gongsun Jue's plan, gritting his teeth and charging forward!

"I'll fight to the death!"

The elder roared, his internal mana surging wildly.

"Six Harmonies Mystic Turtle Shield! Rise!"

He directly summoned a sixth-tier Medium Grade Treasure Artifact shield emitting a heavy aura!

This shield could be considered exceptionally defensive, capable of blocking a full-power strike from a mid-stage Return to Void Cultivator!

It should be enough to buy some time.

As for killing Ye Qing in return?

He absolutely dared not think of it!

"Clang!"

The shield was summoned, continuously enlarging and emitting a halo.

Blocking the sword light Ye Qing had slashed over.

However.

"Crack——!"

A crisp sound.

Under the elder's horrified gaze.

That indestructible sixth-tier treasure shield, before Ye Qing's sword light, actually shattered like rotten wood, instantly cleaved apart!

Exploding into countless fragments!

"What?!"

The elder was greatly shocked. In desperation, he quickly summoned three slightly weaker defensive Treasure Artifacts to block.

Simultaneously.

He also hurriedly crushed an extremely precious Teleportation Jade Talisman!

This was used to alter the teleportation location.

"Positioning Teleportation!"

"Target: Western Heaven Prefecture!"

This directly positioned the teleportation to the side of the Western Heaven Prefecture Lord, that is, the Boundless Supreme Venerable!

Otherwise, he feared even if Gongsun Jue was teleported away.

He probably still wouldn't escape!

There was still a chance Ye Qing would catch up and kill him!

But now, with positioning teleportation to the Boundless Supreme Venerable's side at Western Heaven Prefecture, the Young Master should be safe!

As for himself, alas!

"Young Master! Leave quickly!"

The elder shouted loudly.

Then he urged his mana, intending to quickly teleport Gongsun Jue away while he stayed behind to buy time.

But.

In the blink of an eye.

"Pfft!"

Sword light flashed.

Three Treasure Artifacts instantly shattered.

Immediately after.

That sword light passed unhindered through the elder's body.

The gray-robed elder didn't even have time to utter a final word before being cleaved in half on the spot by Ye Qing's sword!

Two halves of the corpse fell, then turned to dust... At this moment.

Teleportation light had already enveloped Gongsun Jue.

His figure began to become illusory, disappearing bit by bit.

Seeing the elder die.

Gongsun Jue's eyes revealed horror and fear.

"Uncle Fu..."

He hadn't expected Uncle Fu to be unable to kill Ye Qing in return.

Instead, he was easily killed by Ye Qing!

Fortunately, fortunately he had activated the teleportation first and was about to leave this place now!

As the teleportation light brightened, the architecture of Western Heaven Prefecture faintly appeared before Gongsun Jue's eyes.

A feeling of relief after a narrow escape also surged in Gongsun Jue's heart.

"Hmph! Ye Qing!"

"You just wait!"

"Today's grudge will be repaid in the future!"

Gongsun Jue, his figure slightly illusory, stood within Western Heaven Prefecture, subconsciously clenched his fist, and uttered a harsh threat.

But.

Looking at Gongsun Jue who seemed to have already teleported away, leaving only a phantom.

Ye Qing's expression was calm, a trace of mockery curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Want to leave?"

"My sword hasn't agreed!"

Ye Qing stepped forward.

Raised his hand.

And fiercely tore at the remaining teleportation light!

"Open!"

Although the teleportation was almost complete and couldn't be forcibly interrupted or destroyed.

But... he could chase!

"Slash!"

A cold light flashed fiercely in Ye Qing's eyes.

He raised the long sword in his hand high, aiming at that nearly closed Void Realm channel.

And slashed out with all his might!

It seems you teleported to Western Heaven Prefecture, right? Why go through such inconvenience!

This sword strike... will send you to the west!

Boom!

A terrifying sword light, following Gongsun Jue's teleportation trajectory, brutally charged into the Void Realm channel!

Moreover.

Ye Qing worried Gongsun Jue might have some life-saving substitution methods on him.

If one sword strike couldn't kill him, it would be troublesome.

So for this strike, he used his full power!

...Simultaneously.

In the distant core region of the Central Domain.

Within the main hall of the top-tier force—Western Heaven Prefecture.

A middle-aged man wearing golden robes, majestic as a prison, sat cross-legged, meditating with closed eyes.

This person was precisely the Western Heaven Prefecture Lord, a top-tier powerhouse renowned throughout the Central Domain—the Boundless Supreme Venerable!

Suddenly.

"Hum!"

The space above the hall rippled.

A teleportation light brightened.

The Boundless Supreme Venerable suddenly opened his eyes, sensing a familiar aura.

"Jue'er?"

His heart stirred.

He looked up at the space above.

Was this the life-saving teleportation talisman on his son activated?

And directly positioning teleportation to his side?

"What's going on? Has Jue'er encountered danger?"

Thinking of this, the Boundless Supreme Venerable felt somewhat tense.

He only had this one son, usually doting on him excessively and extremely protective.

As for whether his son caused trouble outside, whether it was his fault, whether he was in the right?

Those were questions only the weak considered!

The Boundless Supreme Venerable believed in the principle—whoever has the stronger strength is in the right!

And as the lord of a top-tier force.

In this Central Domain, to some extent, he was the "right"!

Soon.

The teleportation light dispersed.

Gongsun Jue's somewhat disheveled figure appeared, suspended in the air.

"Jue'er?"

The Boundless Supreme Venerable immediately stood up, looking up, and asked with concern:

"What happened? Why are you in such a state?"

Seeing his father, Gongsun Jue immediately let out a long sigh of relief, feeling safe.

He was about to fly down and start crying and complaining.

However.

The next moment.

"Boom——!!!"

A terrifying, heart-palpitating aura of death rushed from the not-yet-fully-closed teleportation channel,A rush of air!

"What?!"

Gongsun Jue's Face changed drastically.

He felt that familiar, despair-inducing Sword Intent!

Almost instantly, he realized... this was Ye Qing's means of pursuit!

"No!!!"

Gongsun Jue was terrified.

He looked at the Boundless Supreme Venerable, his eyes filled with despair and pleading:

"Father! Save..."

Before he could finish speaking.

"Boom!!!"

That terrifying sword light chasing along the teleportation trajectory, like a world-destroying mad dragon, roared out of the channel!

Carrying world-annihilating power, it instantly struck Gongsun Jue!

This sword strike was too fast! Too fierce! Too overbearing!

Even the Boundless Supreme Venerable, because he was still somewhat distant from Gongsun Jue.

Although this distance was usuallynegligible for the Boundless Supreme Venerable, now, thisnegligible distance was an insurmountable chasm!

Therefore, his eyes wide with rage, he stepped forward, but it was already too late to intervene!

"Bang!!!"

Accompanied by a loud explosion.

Under the Boundless Supreme Venerable's gaze.

His precious son Gongsun Jue, who had just narrowly escaped death.

Along with all the life-saving Magic Treasures on him.

Instantly exploded!

Shattered by that terrifying sword light... directly blasted into a mist of blood and countless fragments in mid-air!

Under the Boundless Supreme Venerable's stiff expression.

They fell rustling down!

In the Wan Yan Mountain Range, the Void Realm channel slowly closed.

That terrifying, peerless sword light, after shattering Gongsun Jue, its remaining power dissipated, gradually returning to nothingness.

Ye Qing sheathed his sword and stood calmly. Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

He could sense that Gongsun Jue had already been annihilated.

"Revered Master!"

At this moment, Lin Xueer, Su Chan, and the shrunken Kylin Little Treasure, Faces full of excitement, gathered around.

"Revered Master, you've finally come!"

Su Chan's eyes sparkled, looking at Ye Qing with admiration.

Lin Xueer was somewhat more reserved.

But her gaze also held reverence, tightly fixed on Ye Qing.

Ye Qing smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over the three.

Seeing they were somewhat disheveled but their auras were stable and their cultivation had greatly advanced.

He couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

"Not bad."

"It seems during this period of training, you've experienced a lot and made significant progress."

Saying this, Ye Qing reached into his chest.

"Come out, meet your Senior Sisters."

"Whoosh——"

Ye Qing's lapel moved slightly.

A small, emerald-green sapling emitting a rich life aura poked its head out.

It was precisely Ye Qing's newly accepted fourth Disciple—the World Tree sapling, Mu Mu.

"Wow! What a cute grass!"

Su Chan exclaimed.

Lin Xueer speculated, "Perhaps it's a flower..."

Kylin Little Treasure looked at Mu Mu with suspicion and doubt.

Mu Mu: ..."Senior Sister, I'm a tree!"

Afterward.

Ye Qing smilingly introduced Mu Mu and Lin Xueer and the others to each other.

Mu Mu, with her simple personality, called out "Senior Sister" in a childish voice, quickly getting along with everyone.

After a brief exchange.

Ye Qing's gaze turned to the distance, a trace of cold sharpness flashing in his eyes.

"Since you're all acquainted now, let's go."

"There's still a Karma unresolved."

"That Myriad Spirits Langya Clan... has long held grudges with me, and now they've targeted you. There's no need for them to exist anymore."

...Subsequently.

Ye Qing, leading his Disciples, transformed into streams of light, flying directly toward the clan territory of the Myriad Spirits Langya Clan.

As one of the Central Domain's Supreme Aristocratic Families, the Langya Clan's territory was located amidst a range of spiritually beautiful mountains.

It was heavily guarded with numerous Formations.

However.

Before Ye Qing, all this was like nothing.

"Boom!"

Ye Qing descended, merely releasing a trace of his Sword Dao aura.

Causing the Langya Clan's protective clan Formation to tremble violently, emitting groans ofOverwhelmed.

"Who is it?!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Within the Langya Clan, chaos instantly erupted.

Not long after, several figures soared into the sky. The leader was precisely the Langya Clan's current Clan Chief—Langya Hong!

But when he saw the newcomer was Ye Qing, his originally majestic Face instantly turned pale, his eyes filled with terror.

Over the past period.

The successive destruction of the Qin Family and Chun Family had long become his nightmare.

He couldn't even sleep well every day!

That's why he wanted to pledge allegiance to Western Heaven Prefecture.

And now.

The nightmare had appeared before his eyes!

"Ye... True Disciple Ye?!"

Langya Hong forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, squeezing out a smile uglier than crying, and cupped his hands:

"I didn't know True Disciple Ye was gracing us with your presence. I failed to welcome you properly, please forgive me!"

"But... I wonder where our Langya Clan has offended the True Disciple?"

"If there's some misunderstanding, our Langya Clan is willing to apologize! Willing to pay any price for reconciliation!"

While speaking softly, he frantically calculated in his heart:

"Damn it! Why has thisevil star come?"

"Langya Ting previously said he was accompanying that Western Heaven Prefecture True Disciple Young Master on business."

"As long as I can buy time... wait for Langya Ting to send news, confirming we've successfully pledged allegiance to Western Heaven Prefecture, becoming a subsidiary of a top-tier force..."

"At that time, even if Ye Qing isNo matter how arrogant, he'll probably have to consider Western Heaven Prefecture's Face, feelfear, and not dare actGo ahead and do it.?!"

Thinking of this.

Langya HongOne side attempted to deal with Ye Qing deceitfully.

One side his hands behind his back frantically activated a communication jade talisman.

Trying to urge Langya Tingthere to speed up and have Young Master Gongsun speak up to protect them!

However.

He had no idea that hisLifeline and Langya Ting together had long turned to dust.

Looking at Langya Hong.

Ye Qing couldn't be bothered withnonsense, couldn't be bothered withexplain.

"Reconciliation?"

"Too late."

Ye Qing slowly raised his hand, Sword Qi flickering in his palm.

Seeing this.

Langya Hong's pupils contracted sharply,Completely panicked.

He shouted loudly:

"Ye Qing! You can't kill me!"

"Our Langya Clan has already pledged allegiance to Western Heaven Prefecture's True Disciple—Young Master Gongsun Jue!"

"We are now people of Western Heaven Prefecture!"

"If you move against us, you're slapping Western Heaven Prefecture's Face! Offending a top-tier force!"

"When the Western Heaven Prefecture Lord, the Boundless Supreme Venerable, becomes enraged, can you bear the consequences?!"

He thought invoking this great Buddha should scare Ye Qing.

However.

"Pfft!"

A snicker came from the side.

Kylin Little Treasure, arms crossed, looked at Langya Hong.

Grinning, he said:

"Oi! Old man, your information is too outdated!"

"Gongsun Jue?"

"You mean that showy guy who seemed to have peacock feathersInserted?"

"Sorry..."

Little Treasure, with aninnocent expression,He smiled with narrowed eyes.:

"He's long dead!"
