303: Clearing obstacles

The next day, Wang Jian invited Ye Kong to the Land of the Gods again. He had Sect Leader Shao Jue of Dragon Country specifically bring the three thousand elite soldiers who had been trained, and they would all be handed over to Ye Kong today.

Ye Kong arrived at the Land of the Gods as invited and immediately saw the three thousand elite soldiers already assembled there.

Upon seeing Ye Kong, the soldiers immediately knelt in salute.

"Greetings, General Ye!"

Wang Jian and Shao Jue walked over with smiles to welcome Ye Kong.

"General Ye, as per our previous agreement, the three thousand elite soldiers have completed their training. We are now handing them over to you."

Wang Jian took the military tally, which commanded the Dragon Country Army Who Subdues Rebellion, from Shao Jue and then, in front of all the soldiers, handed it to Ye Kong.

Although this was Ye Kong's second time receiving the military tally, his heart was still incredibly excited at this moment.

Thinking that the lives of the soldiers, as well as the future of Dragon Country, were in his hands, he did not feel fear.

Although the responsibility was great, his heart surged with emotion!

Ye Kong respectfully accepted the military tally.

"Thank you, Crown Prince."

Then, Ye Kong turned around and displayed the military tally in his hand.

All the soldiers' gazes were now focused on Ye Kong.

"I, General Who Suppresses Rebellion Ye Kong, in the name of the Thunder God, officially accept the appointment from the Crown Prince of Dragon Country, to lead the Dragon Country Army Who Subdues Rebellion, to protect Dragon Country, to suppress the rebels, and to clear the world!"

The soldiers immediately erupted in a roar that shook the mountains and seas: "Thunder God! Thunder God! Thunder God!"

After the ceremony, Ye Kong bid farewell to Wang Jian. Wang Jian said, "The current troops are definitely not enough. In the future, we will have to contend with the New Imperial Capital Faction and other races. I will continue to recruit troops for Brother Ye, so Brother Ye can rest assured!"

Ye Kong nodded and said, "Good, I appreciate your trouble, Crown Prince. I will go all out. I will now go and clear the obstacles in the capital."

Wang Jian and Shao Jue were both stunned, not understanding what Ye Kong meant.

Wang Jian asked, "General Ye, are you going to act now?"

Ye Kong said, "It's better to do this sooner rather than later. The policy was announced yesterday. If the aristocratic families are dissatisfied and unite with the New Imperial Capital Faction, we will fall into a passive position. We must strike first."

Ye Kong took out the information in his hand and said, "Crown Prince, please look. I have asked Steward Cao to help me collect a series of criminal evidence against the Four Great Divine Families in the capital."

"Of course, this evidence might not have been considered criminal evidence originally, but there's no doubt that all of it goes against our policy from yesterday."

Wang Jian looked at the information in Ye Kong's hand, nodded, and showed a resolute expression.

"Good, General Ye, do whatever you want to do. I will fully support you!"

"..."

Ye Kong quickly located the Ye Family God Ancestor through his Divine Sense.

"All of you, go to the Ye Family mansion and surround them. Do not attack, but do not let anyone out either!"

Ye Kong found Xue Ruyu and had her temporarily lead the troops.

"Don't worry, Ye Kong, I won't let a single Ye Family member escape," Xue Ruyu said confidently.

Ye Kong nodded and then flew out of the capital city to find the Ye Family God Ancestor.

"Ye Family God Ancestor, the time has come for you to understand what a true God is!"

Before Ye Kong could land in the Secret Realm where the Ye Family God Ancestor was, the Ye Family God Ancestor had already discovered Ye Kong.

"You scoundrel, you dare to approach this Old Ancestor!" The Ye Family God Ancestor's divine voice rang out!

"Ye Family God Ancestor, you have harmed the Human Race of the capital and committed countless massacres. Today is your day of death!"

Ye Kong looked at the Ye Family God Ancestor with a stern expression and spoke in a cold voice.

The terrifying Thunder Power behind him vibrated slightly, radiating cold light.

"Ye Kong, even if your master, the Emperor, came, I wouldn't bat an eye, let alone a junior like you."

"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of this Old Ancestor! You are truly arrogant!" The Ye Family God Ancestor said, appearing fierce but inwardly timid.

If the Emperor had truly arrived, the Ye Family God Ancestor would have likely fled long ago, not daring to spout such threats here.

"Ye Family God Ancestor, if the Emperor came, you would have likely fled long ago. How dare you still boast here!" Ye Kong sneered.

"If it weren't for the complicated situation in the world these past few years, and Dragon Country not having any formidable generals, you few aristocratic families would have been eradicated by me, Ye Kong, long ago!"

"Today, even if your Demonic Technique is peerless, you will not escape. Ye Family God Ancestor, your day of death has arrived!" Ye Kong's killing intent erupted, and the terrifying Thunder Power behind him instantly unfurled, transforming into two feather-bladed chains that, with a chilling sound, struck towards the Ye Family God Ancestor.

Many guards quickly appeared beside the Ye Family God Ancestor and attacked Ye Kong simultaneously.

"Kill! Kill!" The powerful Cultivators beside the God Ancestor also showed killing intent, manipulating the sharp swords in their hands and pouncing towards Ye Kong.

The hundreds of Ye Family Disciples, meanwhile, scattered and set up a grand formation to trap this sky, preventing Ye Kong from escaping with secret techniques and rendering their efforts futile.

"Ye Kong, do you really think we have no preparations?"

The grand formation set up by the Ye Family Disciples was the Gale Sword Array, a killing formation bestowed by the contemporary God Ancestor when the Ye Family was founded, possessing extraordinary power.

This formation originated from the Whirlwind Grand Formation, being a simplified version of it.

The Gale Sword Array was quickly set up by the Ye Family Disciples. Instantly, mist swirled in the sky, and Ye Kong was immediately surrounded.

Ye Kong laughed heartily, and with a movement of his hand, powerful Thunder Power overflowed.

Thunder Prison!

Powerful Divine Lightning instantly surged towards the Ye Family God Ancestor, directly bypassing the Ye Family guards and completely enveloping the Ye Family God Ancestor.

A chill ran through the Ye Family God Ancestor's heart. He knew that if he didn't go all out today, he might not be able to escape alive.

"Boom!" At that moment, the Ye Family God Ancestor disregarded many things, and with a fierce resolve, the Godly Laws swirling around his entire body shot up into the sky.

The Ye Family God Ancestor's figure also grew larger, transforming into a tree shadow that covered the sky and sun. Its branches swayed in the air like golden snakes dancing wildly, with long fangs and five claws.

The Ye Family God Ancestor's true form was very ugly, like an old tree on the verge of dying, with only withered branches and shriveled bark, appearing very hideous and frightening.

The Ye Family God Ancestor had lived for over a hundred years, and his body no longer had the lustrous skin of ordinary people.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

The Ye Family God Ancestor manipulated his black-glowing Godly Laws, lashing them like whips towards the rapidly approaching feather-bladed chains and Divine Lightning streaks.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

The Ye Family God Ancestor's Godly Laws were quite resilient, unafraid of fire or water, but under the impact of the feather-bladed chains and Divine Lightning streaks, they continuously shattered. In an instant, over a dozen Laws were destroyed.

In particular, the feather-bladed chains formed by Ye Kong's Nine Heavens Divine Lightning merged to form a feather-bladed storm, causing the most terrifying damage to the Ye Family God Ancestor.

The Ye Family Disciples who set up this Gale Sword Array were all powerful, with cultivation levels above Marquis.

The main operators of each formation gate were King-level Cultivators.

A sword formation set up by hundreds of Disciples working together was enough to make it difficult for a Cultivator in the Demigod Realm to break out in a short time.

But Ye Kong was now in the Deity Realm!
