598: Chapter 598 Ye Chen, you're dead!

Ye Chen paused and swept his gaze across the scene.

"Oh?"

"So many people? Is it not time for breakfast this early in the morning?"

No one answered.

Everyone's eyes fell on him, cold as knives.

Yan Qingwu followed behind him, a thin layer of sweat breaking out on her palms.

She wasn't afraid of a fight, but this lineup opposite them was simply ridiculous.

Over a hundred Heaven Realm experts!

Over twenty Heavenly First Realm Experts!

Among them...

At least three or four were in the Golden Core Stage!

At that moment.

A Middle-aged Man wearing a white robe walked out from the crowd.

His face was like polished jade, with a three-strand long beard hanging down his chest, and his entire being exuded an aura of natural authority.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze landing on Ye Chen as he spoke coldly.

"I am Bai Tian of the Bai family, the Fourth Elder of the Bai family."

"Ye Chen, you killed our Bai family guest official Bai Yujing and seized our Bai family's supreme treasure, the ink dragon sword. How do you plan to settle this debt?"

Ye Chen looked at him and tilted his head. "Bai Yujing? Oh, you mean that trash whose energy center I crippled, and who was then stabbed to death by Qingyi?"

Bai Tian's expression darkened.

"You!"

"What about me?"

Ye Chen interrupted him, sounding perfectly justified. "He wanted to kill me, so I wasn't allowed to fight back? Is this how your Bai family reasons?"

"Ye Chen, stop your sophistry!"

Bai Tian shouted sharply, his aura suddenly surging. The pressure of the Late Golden Core Stage crushed toward Ye Chen like something physical.

Just then.

Another voice rang out from the crowd.

"Brother Bai Tian, please calm down."

An old man wearing a green robe walked out.

His hair was graying and his face was covered in wrinkles; he looked at least a cycle older than Bai Tian.

"This old man is the Second Elder of the Hehuan Sect, Chen Xiaolong."

"Ye Chen, first you injured our Hehuan Sect's Sword Venerable Meng Ziyi, and then you caused our Sword Saint Liu Shenfeng to be pinned to a container by his own life-bound flying sword."

"How do you plan to settle this debt?"

Ye Chen looked at him and blinked.

"I say, you people from the Hehuan Sect should stick to your 'Plucking Yin to Supplement Yang' instead of everyone liking to play with swords."

"Aren't you all just being 'cheap' then?"

Chen Xiaolong's face turned completely black.

"Presumptuous!"

"A wet-behind-the-ears brat like you dares to criticize the sword dao of my Hehuan Sect?"

"Today, this old man will see exactly what you're made of!"

He flipped his right hand, and a green longsword slid from his sleeve into his palm.

Green light flowed along the blade, and the sword intent was chilling; it was clearly no ordinary item.

Ye Chen glanced at the sword. "Quite an average sword, yet you dare to challenge me. Don't cry when I'm beating you later."

Chen Xiaolong's hand shook violently, his face turning various shades of blue and white.

Dammit!

This bastard's words were so f*cking unpleasant!

So many experts from One Clan, Three Sects, Five Gates had come, yet he wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he was mocking him to his face?

Did he really think he was invincible under heaven?

But before he could speak.

Several more people stepped out from the crowd.

An old man in a gray robe, his face as still as water.

"I am the Second Elder of the Tianyi Sect, Lin Zhao."

"Ye Chen, you killed our Tianyi Sect Elder Zhou Xuanji. This debt must be settled today!"

A Middle-aged Man in a black robe with sinister eyes.

"I am the Third Elder of the Ghost Sect, Gongsun Yunshang."

"Ye Chen, you wiped out over thirty of my Ghost Sect's people. How do you plan to repay this debt?"

An old woman in a red robe, leaning on a snake-headed cane, her voice hoarse.

"baka yaro! I am the Second Elder of the Emperors Gate, Uesugi Megumi."

"Ye Chen, not only did you break into Japan, you even wiped out the entire Yin Yang Society..."

"If I let you leave here today, I shall commit seppuku!!!"

...

One expert after another stepped forward.

From the One Clan, Three Sects, Five Gates, an elder had come from every single one!

All in all, nine elders stood in a row.

Every single one of them had an aura above the Tianyi Realm. Among them, Bai Tian had the highest cultivation at the Late Golden Core Stage.

The others were either at the Mid Golden Core Stage, Half-step Golden Core, or at the very least, the peak of the Tianyi Realm.

Behind the nine elders stood over a hundred disciples, a mix of Heaven Realm and Tianyi Realm, blocking the hotel lobby so tightly not even a drop of water could leak through!

Watching this scene, Yan Qingwu was dazed.

Good grief!

So this whole group of people came to seek revenge...

Ye Chen's gaze swept over the crowd, a look of surprise on his face.

"Oh? The Yin Yang Society was wiped out?"

He turned his head to look at Yan Qingwu. "That woman moves quite fast; she's even more efficient than I imagined."

Yan Qingwu's lips twitched.

She knew Ye Chen was referring to Daji.

But now that people from the One Clan, Three Sects, Five Gates had all come for revenge, he could actually calmly chat about this??

Before she could speak, Uesugi Megumi on the opposite side was already flying into a rage.

"baka yaro!"

"Not a single one left! They are all dead!"

"You... you actually have the nerve to ask if it was thorough enough?"

Her voice was trembling.

It was from fury.

It was a towering rage that made her want to skin Ye Chen alive.

Ye Chen looked at her and smiled instead.

"I'm malicious?"

"Compared to what you Japanese did on my Dragon Country's land back then, what does this little bit of mine count for?"

"Besides..."

"Aren't you just one of the fish that slipped through the net?"

"In a moment, I'll deal with you along with the rest."

Uesugi Megumi's face turned completely the color of pig liver.

"baka!"

"Everyone, attack together! Take him down!!!"

Before her voice had even faded, the group of Emperors Gate disciples behind her all took a step forward, their auras surging with murderous intent.

The elders of the other families glanced at each other and also released their respective auras.

The auras of the nine great elders intertwined, forming a massive net that covered the sky and earth as it descended toward Ye Chen.

The auras of over a hundred disciples converged into a torrent, filling the entire hotel lobby to the brim.

The air in the lobby seemed to freeze.

The hotel staff hiding behind the front desk were scared out of their wits, scrambling and crawling toward the back door.

Yan Qingwu stood behind Ye Chen, her right hand already pressed against the hilt of the ink dragon sword at her waist, a thin layer of sweat on her palm.

She wasn't afraid of a fight.

But this lineup...

Over a hundred Heaven Realm experts, over twenty Heavenly First Realm Experts, and several Golden Core Stage experts.

Placed anywhere, this was a force capable of toppling the government of a small country.

Now, it was all f*cking aimed at the two of them.

How could she not be nervous???

"Ye Chen."

Bai Tian stood with his hands behind his back and scolded him.

"If you surrender today and hand over the bronze key, we can give you a quick death."

"Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Ye Chen's lips curled up slightly. "Otherwise you'll all attack together, and then all get beaten by me together?"

Bai Tian's face darkened.

A cold light flashed in Chen Xiaolong's eyes. "Arrogant brat, you still dare to be stubborn when death is at your doorstep!"

Uesugi Megumi was even more furious, slamming her snake-headed cane onto the ground, causing several cracks to appear in the bluestone floor. "baka yaro! Why waste words? Everyone, attack together! Take down this Shina-jin!"

"Go!"

"Kill!"

Over a hundred disciples roared in unison, their auras exploding as murderous intent surged toward Ye Chen like a tide.

Just then.

BOOM!!!

The floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall of the hotel lobby shattered.

Countless glass shards splashed in like a rainstorm.

Everyone's movements suddenly froze.

They all turned their heads in unison to look at the shattered wall.

In the morning light, a figure descended from the sky.

A white pleated Mamian skirt fluttered in the wind, and nine snow-white tails spread out behind her like nine silk ribbons.

Every single strand of fur shimmered with a silvery-white luster in the sunlight.

"Tama... Tamamo-no-Mae?!"

Uesugi Megumi's pupils suddenly constricted, and the snake-headed cane in her hand almost slipped.

The arrogance on Bai Tian's face instantly froze, replaced by wariness.

The surrounding disciples turned pale, and some even subconsciously took two steps back.

Tamamo-no-Mae.

The King of a Hundred Demons.

A legendary great demon of Japan.

A being that had lived for thousands of years.

Even in the Kunlun Ruins, this name was enough to make many people lose sleep.

But at this moment, she was standing right in front of them, standing there in the flesh!!!

"Lady Tamamo-no-Mae!"

Uesugi Megumi was the first to snap back to her senses, a flash of wild joy in her eyes.

"You... you have appeared in person to protect your people?"

"The Yin Yang Society was wiped out, the Onmyoji were killed. As the guardian deity of the Yin Yang Society, you will surely take revenge for them, right?"

That's right!

Tamamo-no-Mae was the guardian shikigami that successive generations of Onmyoji from the Yin Yang Society would contract with.

So.

When Daji appeared, how could Uesugi Megumi not be excited?

As she spoke, she turned to look at Ye Chen, her voice full of triumph.

"Hahaha! Ye Chen, you're dead!"

"Lady Tamamo-no-Mae is the most powerful existence in Japan, a great demon who has lived for thousands of years!"

"With Her Ladyship here, even if you had three heads and six arms, you couldn't turn the tide!"

Hearing this, Bai Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Tamamo-no-Mae...

He had heard of this name.

Rumor had it she was a nine-tailed fox who had cultivated for a thousand years, once transforming into a peerless beauty to bewitch kings and bring chaos to the world.

Later, she was sealed by Onmyoji and became the guardian deity for generations of the Yin Yang Society.

If she really came to help, then today's matter was indeed settled.

A great demon who had lived for a thousand years would have strength at least above the Nascent Soul stage, or perhaps...

Even stronger!

Combined with their nine great elders and over a hundred disciples, taking down Ye Chen would be more than enough.

The corners of Bai Tian's mouth curled up slightly.

The surrounding people from the One Clan, Three Sects, Five Gates also became excited.

However.

That Tamamo-no-Mae glanced at them with a look of surprise.

And then.

She spoke shocking words.

"This lady isn't called Tamamo-no-Mae. This lady is called Daji."
