20: With a single strike, the entire arena was stunned!

"Hahaha!"

Seeing that he had successfully killed a You Beast in just half an hour,

Young Master Ye's eyes were filled with wild joy.

"It actually, it actually only took half an hour!"

"Even my elder brother takes at least half an hour to kill a You Beast.

But my brother is at the Third-Tier!"

With his Second-Tier Realm, he was actually comparable to his elder brother!

It was his Myriad Weight Slash that had made a Breakthrough!

It could reach a full 108 times the power in a single strike!

Only then could it heavily wound the You Beast and deal a fatal blow!

He was a Prodigy,

a super Prodigy who could kill a You Beast in half an hour!

Once the feat of him killing a You Beast in half an hour at the Second-Tier Realm reached the Family,

the entire Family would seethe with excitement because of him!

"Haha, I, Ye Lingxing, am not inferior to any Prodigy in the Imperial Capital!"

"Father will definitely tilt all resources toward me!"

Young Master Ye, Ye Lingxing's heart was surging!

He glanced at the shocked high-level officials of Chiyang City.

A trace of softness appeared in Ye Lingxing's eyes; these commoners were lucky to witness a scene where he surpassed himself!

At the same time,

incredibly surging and mottled spiritual energy rampaged through his body.

Ye Lingxing calmed his mind and quickly absorbed and refined the massive amount of spiritual energy.

An hour later,

a light of Realm Breakthrough bloomed.

"Young Master Ye is now Third-Tier!"

"In just one hour, Young Master Ye continuously broke through the Second-Tier Peak and then even shattered the Second-Tier barrier in one go to reach the Third-Tier!"

"These big shots not only have transcendent natural talent, but their resources are also incredibly abundant!"

"A Second-Tier invincible You Beast would be the Peak combat power in our Chiyang City, a reliance for guarding the city and preventing crises!"

"Yet in Young Master Ye's hands, it's nothing more than a stepping stone to raise his Realm."

"Sigh."

The high-level officials of Chiyang City felt their worldview had been completely rewritten ever since they met Young Master Ye.

"Whew."

Ye Lingxing opened his eyes, joy flashing in them.

"This time, taking advantage of the skill Breakthrough, I only wasted seventy percent of the energy!"

"There are eight You Beasts left; the high-stage of the Third-Tier Realm—I will surely reach it!"

"Very good!"

This was truly an unexpected surprise!

"Report!"

"Young Master Ye, Young Master Ye, this is bad!"

A figure rolled in from outside the hall.

Immediately,

the smell of urine spread through the air.

"What's that smell?"

"So pungent!"

Everyone in the conference hall couldn't help but hold their breath.

Ye Lingxing saw the person clearly; it was the guard under him surnamed Zhang.

His face turned icy as he barked,

"You bastard, get rid of the smell!"

"Yes!"

"Water Column!"

A guard who had an Awakening in the Mage class stepped forward, waved his hand, and a stream of water fell from the sky, enveloping Guard Zhang.

"Hurricane!"

A cold wind blew, carrying the water that hadn't even hit the ground yet out of the hall; not a single drop of moisture landed on Ye Lingxing.

"You'd better pray that what you say next can save your life."

Killing intent flooded Ye Lingxing's eyes.

Guard Zhang trembled like a quail, curled up, and prostrated himself on the ground.

"Young Master Ye, You Beast No. 6, No. 6 was killed!"

"What?!"

The killing intent in Ye Lingxing's eyes vented out like a flood!

Who!

Who dared to kill his You Beast!

And disrupt his plan to extract energy from the Secret Realm!

What audacity!

To dare disrupt his, Ye Lingxing's, plan—just how many heads did they have to be cut off!

Instantly,

he scanned Chen Shouyi and his group with eyes full of icy coldness.

He curled his lips!

He originally thought these rural commoners were just scraping by, but he didn't expect someone among them would actually be so bold!

"That city lord or whatever, notify all the commoners in your city who are above the Fourth-Tier.

Get them here within ten minutes!

One step late, and you die!"

Ye Lingxing knew better than Chen Shouyi and the others just how strong a You Beast was!

Naturally, he directly ordered to see all the Fourth-Tier Realm experts in the city.

The culprit must be among these people.

There was no doubt about that!

These words filled the city's high-level officials with extreme terror!

They were only fit to look up at Young Master Ye's background; in his eyes, they were nothing more than slightly stronger ants.

If Young Master Ye got angry, they might be crushed to death in passing.

Actually!

Someone actually dared to disrupt Young Master Ye's plan!

This was going to get them, these high-level officials, implicated to death!

"Who!"

"Who is it!"

The Chiyang City high-level officials were all in a panic!

Who the hell was so reckless!

To dare provoke Young Master Ye—they were really going to be killed!

"City Lord, you know the city's foundations best!"

"Quickly, City Lord, have the criminal who offended Young Master Ye come here to accept their death!"

"City Lord, I beg of you, you must be quick; one step late and Young Master Ye will definitely take his anger out on us!"

"How could our small bodies possibly withstand Young Master Ye's wrath!"

The group of Chiyang City high-level officials, who were usually high and mighty, were now like ants on a hot griddle.

They crowded around City Lord Chen Shouyi, spinning in circles.

They even wished they could push someone from among themselves to bear Young Master Ye's fury!

Chen Shouyi remained silent for a moment.

He took half a step toward Ye Lingxing and sighed,

"Young Master Ye, the people of the Fourth-Tier Realm in our Chiyang City are all here."

Ye Lingxing's cold gaze flashed as he snorted,

"Who?"

Chen Shouyi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said,

"In the entire Chiyang City, I am the only one with Fourth-Tier strength."

"What?"

The high-level officials of Chiyang City were shocked.

At this moment, among these absolute core power elites of Chiyang City, only the City Lord was indeed at the Fourth-Tier Realm.

But their entire Chiyang City had a population of hundreds of thousands!

To think there wasn't even a hidden Fourth-Tier expert!

It would have been fine normally, but now was exactly when Young Master Ye was making things difficult!

This was going to be bad!

"What a display of righteousness!"

Ye Lingxing stood up directly and shouted angrily,

"Do you really think I, Ye Lingxing, don't dare to start a massacre?"

"Young Master Ye, please calm your anger."

As the most noble City Lord of Chiyang City, Chen Shouyi now lowered his noble head.

His upright back also bent down,

"This lowly one does not dare to hide anything; it is truly that Chiyang City's foundation is weak, and I am the only one at the Fourth-Tier Realm."

"Glib-tongued!"

Ye Lingxing turned back and glared at Guard Zhang, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, and said coldly,

"Speak, describe that person's appearance clearly to this young master. I want the Chiyang City Lord to understand exactly why he's dying!"

Guard Zhang was so frightened by Ye Lingxing's extremely cold tone that his whole body shook.

He took several breaths before saying tremulously,

"The one who killed the You Beast... wasn't a person."

"It was, it was a Little Skeleton!"

He added, almost crying,

"It was an ordinary Little Skeleton that was only at the First-Tier Realm!"

"That First-Tier Little Skeleton just swung its bone saber once and split the You Beast in half."

"The You Beast died on the spot!"

A First-Tier Little Skeleton.

Swung its saber once.

A Second-Tier invincible You Beast,

died on the spot, split in half?

A joke!

A huge joke!

Ye Lingxing was even more furious than when he heard that Chen Shouyi was the only Fourth-Tier expert in the city!

If you said it was a Fourth-Tier expert who used all their means to finally kill a Second-Tier You Beast,

he would believe it.

But to say a First-Tier Little Skeleton killed a You Beast with one strike,

it was simply treating him, Ye Lingxing, like an absolute idiot!

Even he, a super Prodigy from the Imperial Capital, still needed half an hour to kill a defenseless You Beast after breaking through his limits.

Yet a First-Tier Little Skeleton actually killed a normal You Beast in one hit.

Humph!

What a monstrous lie!

It was completely an excuse for his own blunder!

"Die!"

Ye Lingxing swung his saber at Guard Zhang.

"Young Master Ye, I've been wronged!"

"I have evidence!"

"It's a Jade Talisman recording!"

Guard Zhang quickly pulled out half a Jade Talisman from his robe and crushed it.

A wisp of purple smoke drifted into the air, forming an image.

In the image,

everyone caught a glimpse of an unremarkable Little Skeleton waving the bone saber in its hand, and a pale white saber light fell to the ground.

That You Beast with its arrogant aura didn't even have time to react before it was split into two.

Suddenly,

the entire place fell into a dead silence!
