176: Drive Jiang Ye out of the Southern Region

Jiang Ye said disdainfully, "Then why didn't you step up before? Hiding at the first sign of trouble—if my Southern Domain relies on cowardly, meddling trash like you, what chance will it ever have to rise in the future?"

"You... we refuse to accept this! Your Majesty, please decide for us!"

"Those who don't accept it can get lost. The Southern Domain has no need for people like you who only act tough against their own."

An Elder from one of the factions said, "You've killed so many people from the other domains; it will inevitably implicate us. I suggest Your Majesty strip him of his title as King of the Town and expel him from the Southern Domain. From now on, he will have nothing to do with us."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look at him. Where did he get such audacity? To dare say such a thing in front of Jiang Ye!

Whoosh! A Royal Family Ancestor appeared, looked at Jiang Ye, and said, "So you are the newly appointed King of the Town? At such a young age, your Killing Intent is so heavy. You even dared to bypass my Royal Family and unilaterally decide the ownership of the domain tokens—truly presumptuous. From this day forth, you are stripped of your title as King of the Town and expelled from the Southern Domain!"

"What!" The spectators in the stands were all shocked. Did they not understand what kind of person Jiang Ye was?

Xia Li was also stunned and hurriedly said, "Old Ancestor! What are you doing? You have been in secluded cultivation for years and might not know, but the King of the Town is the one who repelled the Ye Family for our Southern Domain!"

"Even if he did, so what? To show such disregard for my Royal Family, he must be severely punished!"

"Old Ancestor! This is going to cause a great disaster. Have you thought this through?"

"He is just a disciple from a small Family. He has a bit of strength now, but his talent will be limited in the future. He is not worth mentioning at all."

Xia Li said, "Just whose words did you listen to, to make such a foolish decision?"

"How bold! I am your ancestor. Could my decision possibly be wrong?"

Jiang Ye suddenly stepped forward and said, "Who else wishes to expel me from the Southern Domain? Step forward so I can see you!"

At these words, Xia Li and others familiar with Jiang Ye felt their bodies tremble. He was going to kill! There was a ninety percent chance this Old Ancestor was going to fall here today.

"I agree with expelling you from the Southern Domain!" the faction Elder who had spoken earlier said loudly and smugly.

"We do too. You are far too conceited. Even if your strength is a bit greater than ours, so what? Our Southern Domain has no room for you!"

With the backing of that Royal Family Ancestor, more and more people gradually voiced their agreement to expel him.

After waiting a moment, Jiang Ye saw that no one else was stepping forward and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Very well! From today on, I, Jiang Ye, will no longer be some King of the Town of the Southern Domain. However, I am still taking the slots for the Four Domains Grand Competition. As for you people, heh heh!! You shall all die here."

The Royal Family Ancestor said disdainfully, "What arrogant talk! A mere Earth Realm who used some trick to hide a bit of strength dares to be so insolent! You several, join me in suppressing him and throwing him into the dungeon!"

The other Royal Family Ancestors had seen Jiang Ye act before, but now that this oldest and strongest ancestor had personally come out of seclusion to suppress Jiang Ye, it was likely because he feared Jiang Ye's fame would eclipse the Royal Family and seize their control over the Southern Domain.

Jiang Ye saw five Royal Family Ancestors step forward and said, "Are you all ready? Then be on your way! Divine Thought, Soul Burning!!"

"Ah... what did you do?" The Souls of the five Royal Family Ancestors were instantly ignited and scorched.

Jiang Ye then looked at those who had stepped forward to oppose him, a golden flame flashing in his eyes.

"Ah... what's happening?" The Souls of everyone who had stood up to expel him were likewise scorched. They were in agonizing pain, all collapsing to the ground, screaming and struggling.
