220: Chapter 220 Rewards

Boom!!! The protective shield shattered completely. The power of the lightning spear slammed into his body. "Ah... how dare you..."

"Die!!!" Jiang Ye once again activated his God Slaying Bloodline Power, increasing his strength, prepared to annihilate him in a single strike!

Boom!!! A crisp sound of a body exploding rang out as the Tianxing Sect Elder's physical body was blasted into ashes. Just as his Soul attempted to escape Jiang Ye's attack, he hadn't expected Jiang Ye to possess Soul attack methods as well. In the end, even his Soul was dispersed, resulting in a complete and total death!!

The scene fell silent once again!! He had actually killed an Emperor Realm expert!

At that moment, Jiang Ye flickered in a flash of lightning, appearing before the last Disciple who had come from the Tianxing Sect, smashing him into a pulp with his spear! His speed was so fast that the Disciple didn't even make a sound before dying!

Then, with a flicker, he returned to the group from the Xuan Lei Sect and gave Lei Ming a meaningful look.

Lei Ming immediately tore through space and led all the Sect Disciples inside, with Jiang Ye being the last to leave.

Everyone watched silently as the hundred-plus people from the Xuan Lei Sect departed; the silence at the scene was terrifying!

However, having spent a long time with him, Wu Linglong knew that his consumption had reached its limit when he killed that Emperor Realm expert just now.

Wu Linglong said to Wu Jiutian, "They haven't taken their rewards yet. I'll personally deliver them!"

"Hmm? You'll deliver them? Fine, then you shall represent the Shen Xuan Alliance and deliver the rewards for the top three to the Xuan Lei Sect! Hahaha!!" Wu Jiutian saw through her thoughts and laughed heartily.

Promptly, Wu Linglong left the spectator stands, and at that moment, Cold Moon Elder walked over.

"Vice Alliance Master Wu, this matter is of no small consequence. Seeing your daughter's attitude toward that young man, you will inevitably be dragged into this as well."

Wu Jiutian spoke with some helplessness, "The strength of the Tianxing Sect might not be considered a powerful force within the Forbidden Ground, but it is still unshakable for the Profound Realm. Cold Moon Elder, could you keep this matter a secret for now and allow us some time to deliberate on a solution that satisfies both sides?"

"Very well, we shall stay here for a few days then. You must quickly come up with a plan; the Tianxing Sect will likely send people here before long."

Cold Moon Elder knew that the person who had used Soul power to scan them earlier was Jiang Ye! Furthermore, seeing the decisiveness with which Jiang Ye killed the Tianxing Sect Elder, she realized this person was quite terrifying! As long as he was given a little time to grow, he would definitely become a great terror.

Xuan Lei Sect

Lei Ming led the crowd back to the Sect. When they emerged from the spatial rift, they all collapsed onto the ground in exhaustion.

Yet, every face was filled with excitement; they had all participated in the great event of slaying an Emperor Realm expert!

Sect Master Feng Chang saw them looking as if they had fought a major battle, each one exhausted and in a wretched state.

"What happened to you all?"

Lei Ming said helplessly, "This bunch collectively killed an Emperor Realm expert who came from the Forbidden Ground!"

"What did you say? Killed an Emperor Realm expert?" Feng Chang found it hard to believe. These people were mostly in the Venerable Realm, yet they had actually united to kill a powerful Emperor Realm expert!

"Things have become complicated now. I'm afraid people from the Forbidden Ground will come knocking on our door before long!" Lei Ming was very worried.

At this time, Jiang Ye, who was slumped on the ground, asked, "Both Sect Masters, how many people in the Sect are currently capable of setting up a protective Magic Array?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask?" Feng Chang asked in confusion.

"I have a Formation that can block attacks from an average Emperor Realm expert. When I killed that man, I felt his power; even someone a full Realm stronger than him wouldn't be able to break it."

"A Formation that can block the Emperor Realm? Where did you get it?" Lei Ming was also shocked, becoming increasingly curious about him.

Jiang Ye casually brushed it off, "I obtained it in that Emperor Realm expert's Secret Realm in the Outer Profound Realm." Immediately, Jiang Ye took out a handwritten manuscript and handed it to Feng Chang!

Feng Chang took one look and was stunned! This Formation was too miraculous, something unheard of!

"What a miraculous Magic Array! I will immediately gather the Elders who are skilled in array-laying. You all should rest well first!"

At that moment, a Disciple responsible for guarding the mountain gate walked in and said, "Sect Master, a woman has arrived outside. She says she represents the Shen Xuan Alliance to deliver the rewards for this competition."

"Hmm? Invite her to the assembly hall!" Lei Ming said.

A short while later...

Lei Ming arrived at the assembly hall, took a look, and said, "It's you?"

"Vice Sect Master Lei, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wu Linglong, daughter of Vice Alliance Master Wu Jiutian of the Shen Xuan Alliance. I am here on behalf of the Shen Xuan Alliance to deliver the rewards your Disciples earned in the competition."

"Hahaha, so it is Vice Alliance Master Wu's daughter. Thank you for making the trip personally, Miss Wu."

Wu Linglong set down two Storage Pouches and then said, "These are the rewards for the top two. Um... where is that friend of mine? Can you take me to see him?"

"Hmm? Oh, hahaha! Very well, very well. I'll personally take you there. That kid has been very low-key since coming here; if I asked anyone else, they wouldn't even know which one he is." Lei Ming saw through her purpose—delivering rewards was just a pretext, meeting her lover was the real goal.

Soon, Lei Ming found out Jiang Ye's residence through an inquiry and brought Wu Linglong to a quiet and simple small courtyard.

Upon seeing it, Lei Ming couldn't help but be speechless. Given his level of strength, living in such a crude place was truly a mismatch.

"This kid! Why is he living here? Even if he only had a Heaven Realm cultivation at the time, he was still a Disciple under my lineage. What is he doing living here?"

Wu Linglong smiled and said, "He just didn't want to attract too much attention, so he found a quiet place."

"Alright, go find him. Tell him to move to a better place later; don't let me, the vice sect master, lose face."

"Okay, I will definitely pass on the message. Thank you for the trip, Vice Sect Master Lei."

As Wu Linglong walked outside the courtyard, Jiang Ye's voice came from within.

"Who is it?"

Wu Linglong walked in and pushed open the door to the room. Seeing him lying on the bed, she immediately showed the joy of a small woman seeing her beloved lover.

"Young Master, I've come to see you." She walked over to the bedside with a smile, sat down, and looked at him with eyes full of affection.

Jiang Ye took her jade-like hand, holding it gently in his palm, and said, "Why did you come?"

"I came to deliver the competition rewards to you all."

Jiang Ye sat up and reached out to lightly caress her cheek. "I didn't even make it into the top ten, how can there be a reward for me?"

"Hehe, of course you don't have one. What I brought are the rewards for first and second place."

"Why do I feel like the reward in front of me is even better than theirs?"

"Hahaha, you're terrible! Am I still considered a reward to you?"

"Of course! Is there any wine? Let's have a drink together to relieve this fatigue. I almost exhausted all my strength and collapsed just to kill that Emperor Realm expert this time."

"Yes! I've already prepared it for you." She then opened her Storage Pouch, took out wine and food, and set them on the table, saying, "Are you tired? Let me help you up!"

"Alright! Feed me in a bit too, I'm so tired my hands don't even want to move."

"Hehe, didn't This humble servant come here just to serve the Young Master?" she said, giving him a light kiss on the lips.
