256: Chapter 13: The Arrogant Ye Gui

“Greetings, Grand Elder!”

Upon seeing Elder Ye Gui arrive, Ye Langtian and Xiao Na immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

At the same time, they were filled with regret. If they had known that the Ye Family valued the Ancient Sacred Body so much, they would not have said such hurtful words to Ye Chen just now.

At the very least, the matter of training a new account should have been done secretly, to avoid creating a rift between Ye Chen and them.

“Hmm!”

Elder Ye Gui’s wise eyes glanced indifferently at the two of them. He was quite satisfied with their attitude, so he nodded.

Immediately, Elder Ye Gui spread his hand, and a Jade Slip appeared out of thin air. Then, a wisp of Saint Power flowed into it from his fingertips.

“Qin Feiyu, Saint King Realm Fourth Stage, the head of the Qin Family’s branch lineage, and also an internal hall Elder of the main lineage! He has one son, who is exceptionally talented and is currently Cultivating in Suspended Mountain…”

Elder Ye Gui’s expression was indifferent as he unhurriedly read the information appearing in the Jade Slip.

The middle-aged man’s pupils constricted. He had been in the Xuanhuang World for less than half an hour in total, yet he never expected that his information had been thoroughly investigated by this so-called Ye Family.

Didn’t they say that the Xuanhuang World was full of small forces and small families? How could they possess such terrifying intelligence capabilities?

“Even compared to your son, Ye Chen is still a junior! What kind of skill is it for you, an old man several thousand years old, to travel thousands of miles to bully a junior who is less than thirty? Is your Qin Family full of trash who only know how to bully the weak?”

After reading the information, Elder Ye Gui looked up at Qin Feiyu, who was full of shock, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“You… aren’t you also planning to bully the weak by coming here? Don’t forget, you are also several thousand years older than me…”

Hearing Elder Ye Gui’s words, Qin Feiyu’s face turned somewhat ugly. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he decided to fight fire with fire.

“Grand Elder, kill this damn Qin Family member for me! I want him to be torn to pieces…”

Just then, Ye Chen, enduring the pain in the deep pit, limped to his feet, his eyes filled with venomous resentment as he roared furiously.

“Hmph… even in this state, you’re still not honest! It seems this Venerable One needs to properly discipline you, you little brat who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, on behalf of the Ye Family!”

Qin Feiyu frowned deeply, then formed a hand seal, instantly conjuring a beam of light that shot directly towards Ye Chen in the deep pit.

“How dare you! To harm a Ye Family member in front of this Venerable One, do you not take this old man seriously at all?”

Elder Ye Gui sneered, then flicked his finger. In an instant, ripples surged, scattering the opponent’s beam of light.

“Bang…”

Although the beam of light disappeared, Elder Ye Gui’s power did not stop. Instead, it directly struck Qin Feiyu’s chest, sending him plummeting into the Void Realm and heavily smashing him onto the open ground in front of the inn, causing him to spit out fresh blood.

The entire scene was silent; everyone was stunned, their faces filled with disbelief.

The Ye Family not only came forward to protect Ye Chen but also offended the Qin Family of the Tiannan Region for it. Had they gone mad?

One must know that the major forces in the Tiannan Region might have True Immortal-level powerhouses overseeing them. How dared the Ye Family do this?

“Plop…”

Ye Langtian immediately slumped to the ground, his face full of remorse.

Had the opportunity he had longed for day and night to return to the main lineage been missed by him just like that?

If he hadn’t said such hurtful words to Ye Chen before, would they now be able to follow Ye Chen and return to the main lineage together?

“Ye Lang, don’t worry! No matter what, Chen’er is our son! Now that he has gained the attention of the main lineage, as long as he says a few good words for us, returning is not out of the question!”

Xiao Na saw what Ye Langtian was thinking, immediately came to his side, and quietly explained.

“Yes, yes, yes… he is my son, no one can deny that…”

Ye Langtian’s eyes lit up, and he quickly scrambled up from the ground, taking large strides towards the deep pit.

“Chen’er, how are you doing!”

Ye Langtian gently supported Ye Chen, then took out a Healing Medicinal Pill and carefully handed it over.

Ye Chen glanced indifferently at Ye Langtian. He had originally wanted to shake off the other party’s hand, but at this moment, a sharp pain came from his chest again, so he subconsciously took the Medicinal Pill and consumed it.

On the other side, Qin Feiyu also consumed a Medicinal Pill, his face extremely solemn: “Does your Ye Family intend to be enemies with my Qin Family? Or do you intend to be enemies with all Righteous Path forces?”

Everyone knew what the consequences of Cultivating the Devouring Heaven Magic Skill meant… At least on the surface, no force allowed the existence of such an evil Demonic Technique.

“Hmph… a junior from the Qin Family comes up and slanders my Ye Family Disciple for colluding with the Revered Demon Lord of Hatred. If you cannot give this old man an explanation today, even if your Qin Family Clan Chief comes, you will not be able to leave here!”

Elder Ye Gui sneered disdainfully. He didn’t take such meaningless threats seriously at all.

After speaking, Elder Ye Gui’s expression hardened, and profound Law powers erupted from within his body, instantly enveloping the area within a ten-mile radius.

Whether it was Qin Feiyu, or Ling Yun, Chen Jingyun, and the others, they were all trapped in the mire of Law, unable to move, and even breathing became extremely difficult.

Only Ye Chen and the Ye Family couple were intentionally avoided by Elder Ye Gui during his casting.

“A Peak Great Saint Realm, as terrifying as expected…”

Ling Yun’s face was extremely grim, as he forced out a smile.

“I, Elder Ye Gui, have always liked to reason. If you cannot produce evidence, not only will this Qin Family junior die today, but all those from your Taichu Holy Land who participated in slandering Ye Chen will also have to pay the price!”

Elder Ye Gui’s gaze swept across the entire scene, finally resting on Lin Ruiyang, and he smiled indifferently.

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Ruiyang. After all, they still had to hear his explanation regarding this matter.

However, Lin Ruiyang said unhurriedly, “If I can prove that Ye Chen not only colluded with the Revered Demon Lord of Hatred but also Cultivated the Devouring Heaven Magic Skill, what will you do? You wouldn’t try to kill me to silence me, would you?”

Lin Ruiyang smiled, and the power of his Immortal Rank body erupted, instantly neutralizing the pressure on him. He took a step forward and continued, “If I can further prove that Ye Chen not only devoured the Origin of countless Cultivators but also killed a Saint from an extremely terrifying force, what will your Ye Family do then?”

Seeing that Lin Ruiyang could actually break free from the Law power, Elder Ye Gui’s heart began to grow solemn.

Even he, who had just come out of seclusion, had heard a little about Lin Ruiyang’s Prodigy status.

Initially, he also thought that these rumors contained elements of exaggeration. How could anyone, with a Dongxu Realm Middle Stage cultivation, kill a Saint King Realm Early Stage powerhouse?

Now, seeing this situation, Lin Ruiyang was actually able to move freely under the pressure of his Law. This forced him to re-evaluate this junior in front of him.

Moreover, Lin Ruiyang seemed to have quite a few conflicts with the Ye Family. If he were allowed to continue growing, it might be detrimental to the Ye Family.

“What? You, a mere greenhorn, dare to threaten this Venerable One?”

Elder Ye Gui narrowed his eyes slightly, sneered, and then clenched his fists tightly, as even more terrifying power surged from within him.

As the surrounding Law power grew stronger, many Disciples with lower cultivation were already overwhelmed, falling to the ground and spitting blood, some even falling unconscious.

“Enough…”

Just then, a rich, middle-aged male voice echoed throughout the entire area.

As this reprimanding voice rang out, Elder Ye Gui’s Law power suddenly vanished into thin air. His body was forced to retreat several steps by some unknown force, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
