281: Chapter 281 People from the Xiao Family of the Divine Realm Arrive

Everyone was shocked! Their expressions were grim. Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect said, "Jiang Ye, they are from the Xiao Family. Usually, only one person comes, but this time three have arrived."

Jiang Ye looked at the young man, who was several Realms higher than him, likely at the seventh stage of the Quenching Spirit Realm. The two beside him were much stronger, but still within the range of the Quenching Spirit Realm, likely at the ninth stage.

The corners of Jiang Ye's mouth curled up as he stepped forward, thinking to himself: I was just wondering how to Breakthrough to the next Realm, and here you are, a godsend!

The Xiao Family members were surprised to see him. The young man said, "You ant, to think you could Breakthrough to the fourth stage of the Quenching Spirit Realm in a place like this! You seem to have some talent. You can come back with me and be a good dog, earning me plenty of Spirit Stones in the Arena."

The closer Jiang Ye got to them, the more he felt that their Foundation and depth were quite poor. However, compared to his Cultivate built on a creation-level Cultivation Technique like the World-Defying God Slaying Art, there really was no comparison.

"Why have you come here at this time?"

"This Young Master hasn't played with the women here in a long time. I planned to stay for a few months and take you slaves back with me. I didn't expect to run into you... Hmm? Ahhh..." The young man suddenly screamed as countless black threads emerged from nowhere, piercing through his limbs and Dantian.

The two old men beside the youth were about to act when their Soul suddenly shuddered from a powerful impact. After a brief pause, the black threads pierced through their bodies as well, binding them completely.

"Argh... Who are you!" one of the old men cried out in terror. He never imagined they wouldn't even have the strength to fight back. How could someone like this exist on the Divine Profound Continent?

The young man said, "I am the Fourth Young Master of the Xiao Family! You ant, how dare you attack me... Ahhh... My spiritual power... How can this be..."

Jiang Ye used the Evil Qi black threads to directly drain the spiritual power from their bodies. "Why is your spiritual power so weak? Even after draining all three of you, it'll probably only help me Breakthrough one Realm. You're absolute trash!"

One of the old men said in terror, "You... these methods, are you from the Demon Realm?"

"Demon Realm, Ghost Realm, whatever—it's just a Cultivation Technique! I won't kill you yet. I'll extract your Souls the day I head to the Divine Realm. Seal!!" Jiang Ye drained most of their spiritual power, causing their Dantian to crack and verge on exploding. However, he left a tiny bit of spiritual power to Seal their Souls, preventing them from using any means to call for help.

The young man said with difficulty, "You... you dare to attack people from the Divine Realm? You're courting death! Release me at once, or your entire Divine Profound Continent will suffer!!"

At that moment, Lan Lingji suddenly said something that shocked everyone!

"As long as they don't invade the Divine Profound Continent, why don't we just release them? That way, everyone can live in peace."

The Xiao Family youth quickly added, "Exactly! Release me now. As long as you hand this man over, we won't destroy the Divine Profound Continent. Otherwise, none of you will escape!"

The people of the Divine Profound Continent were split into two camps. One group feared the Xiao Family would send even stronger people, and if Jiang Ye were defeated, everyone would suffer. They thought it better to sacrifice Jiang Ye to appease their anger and ensure peace. The other group believed in Jiang Ye and wanted to fight the people of the Divine Realm to the end.

At this time, five Nine Spirits Sect Old Ancestors rushed over. Seeing the bound Xiao Family members, one of them shouted, "You dare attack the Envoys? Release them immediately! Otherwise, the entire Divine Profound Continent will know no peace."

The Fire Qilin roared in anger, "You cowards of the Nine Spirits Sect, you're actually going to betray us!"

"What audacity! It seems you people of the Divine Fire Sect lack discipline. I'll teach you a lesson on their behalf!"

"You dare!" Ancestor Huo stepped forward and shouted!

The Nine Spirits Sect Old Ancestor said to the people of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, "Are you going to join them in offending the Envoys and seeking your own deaths?"

Wu Sheng also stepped forward, gritting his teeth as he said, "Even if I die fighting them, I will never be their slave!"

Wu Fei said to Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect, "Are you sure this is the choice of your Nine Spirits Sect?"

Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect was helpless and torn. He said, "Why don't we discuss this further and find a perfect solution?"

The Nine Spirits Sect Old Ancestor said, "What is there to discuss? For the sake of everyone on the Divine Profound Continent, release Young Master Xiao Fourth immediately and seize this man to hand him over to them."

"This..." Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect saw Jiang Ye with his eyes closed, his aura withdrawn, motionless!

"You dare!" Several Old Ancestors of the Divine Fire Sect also stepped forward, confronting the Old Ancestors of the Nine Spirits Sect.

The Old Ancestors of the Loose Cultivator Alliance also came forward. "We've lived long enough. We don't want to watch the Disciples we've painstakingly nurtured be sent off one by one to be their slaves! Even if it means death, we'll fight this once!"

"You're actually this foolish, joining the Divine Fire Sect in rebellion? I'm going back right now to use the Teleportation Array and notify them to send people down."

Jiang Ye suddenly spoke up, "How many more of you think we should compromise with the people of the Divine Realm and hand me over to them? Step forward! If more than half of the people here agree, I will comply."

"What!" Everyone was shocked!

The Fire Qilin said, "You're crazy!"

Jiang Ye said, "Stop the nonsense. Make your choice, quickly! Otherwise, once these few are dead, you won't even have a choice to make."

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... People continuously hurried over to the side of the Nine Spirits Sect Old Ancestors. A small number of people from the Divine Fire Sect and the Loose Cultivator Alliance also went over.

The Fire Qilin looked at the few Divine Fire Sect Disciples and Elders who had moved over and roared, "You pieces of trash!"

But Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect's family was very conflicted. Lan Yi asked, "Father, what should we do?"

Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect thought for a moment. He had to save his own life now. Although more than half of the people had chosen to hand Jiang Ye over, Jiang Ye was definitely not the kind of person to let others dictate his fate!

"I, Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect, resign from the position of Sect Leader of the Nine Spirits Sect. My children and I no longer have any ties to the Nine Spirits Sect!"

The Nine Spirits Sect Old Ancestor was furious. "Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect! You're betraying the Nine Spirits Sect at a time like this?"

"I haven't done anything to harm the Nine Spirits Sect. I'm simply stepping down as Sect Leader and leaving the Nine Spirits Sect with my children."

Lan Lingji said to Jiang Ye, "Why don't you stop for now? We can all beg them to spare you together!"

Jiang Ye barked, "Get lost! You trash! If Linglong were here, she would undoubtedly choose to fight to the death with me rather than compromise. Lan Xiangyu, Sect Master of Nine Spirits Sect, you are clever! But I'm only giving your family this one chance. Everyone who has chosen to stand with me, move away immediately! Things are about to get a bit loud."
