“Holy shit, you are… you are… you are Ye Fan!”
Matsumoto instantly realized, just two days ago, another vice president of the Black Clothes Society, Murano Koji, had taken a large team into Cloud City, intending to coordinate with Elder Zhang to make a move against the Ye Family!
As a result, all the experts of the Black Clothes Society led by Murano Koji, as well as the forces prepared by Jin Yang, were completely annihilated!
Although the outside world said it was because Jin Yang accidentally detonated a bomb, which led to the deaths of Murano Koji and others.
I trust you my ass!
Jin Yang, as the Young Master of the Jin Family in Flower Capital, had been chosen by Elder Zhang, which means he wasn’t foolish at all! Moreover, Young Master Zhou of the Capital, who is the spokesperson for the Holy Envoy Organization, was also seriously injured in that struggle… Unfortunately, Zhou Ming completely lost his memory and couldn’t remember what happened at all.
Was it all just a coincidence?
The only conclusion the outside world reached was that Ye Fan, that idiot, surprisingly left the scene unscathed along with Xuan Yufei, Su Yixue, and Qing Ruolan.
Now, the moment Matsumoto saw Ye Fan, he understood everything.
Ye Fan was not stupid!
Moreover, since Ye Fan could easily kill Shen Hu, that indicated Ye Fan’s strength was at least above Shen Hu’s, probably reaching the Martial Emperor Level.
Damn it!
Everyone had been played by Ye Fan!
As Matsumoto was shocked, he did not hesitate at all, propelled his ankles, and rapidly retreated backwards.
Seeing Ye Fan chasing after him, Matsumoto cruelly grabbed another martial arts expert, Lu Tian, and hurled him directly at Ye Fan.
“Matsumoto-san… Ah… oh damn…”
Realizing what was happening, Lu Tian wore a look of horror, trying to forcefully maneuver his qi force to escape while hanging in mid-air.
Those flailing chicken leg-like feet, frantically kicking in the air, were completely ineffective.
“Hmph! There’s no need to run, today, all of you are going to die!” Ye Fan coldly rebuked, not hiding his Martial Emperor Sixth Rank strength, and threw a punch at Lu Tian.
Even though Lu Tian was at the Martial Venerable Level, his entire body’s Gang Qi was like paper in front of Ye Fan, crumbling away instantaneously.
Boom!
Lu Tian had no chance to react at all and was directly blasted into pieces.
A stench of blood permeated the air, and such a brutal scene from Ye Fan instantly stupefied the more than three hundred Black Clothes Society fighters present.
In their minds, Lu Tian, Shen Hu, and Matsumoto, the three great Martial Lords, were already the pinnacle of combat strength.
Yet they hadn’t expected that the idiotic Young Master of the Ye Family, the number one family in Great Xia, would so easily slay a great Martial Lord!
It was such an effortless crush!
The might of a Martial Emperor!
So terrifying!
The first thought in everyone’s mind was to run away, but their legs felt like they were filled with lead, uncontrollable, unable to take a step.
And the most shocked was Matsumoto, who had already retreated to the back of his subordinates!
The shock partly came from the fact that Ye Fan had effortlessly slain the two great Martial Lords beside him, as easy as breathing.
If he himself was only at the level of a Fifth-Rank Martial Venerable, far from the Martial Emperor Level, didn’t that mean he was as good as dead in Ye Fan’s eyes?
What shocked Matsumoto even more was that he suddenly noticed, Ye Fan was actually holding someone in his other arm, Yu Linglong!!!
But just a moment ago, hadn’t the three great Martial Lords together supposed to have blasted Yu Linglong into smithereens?
Fuck me!
What the hell was going on?
Not only was Yu Linglong unharmed, but even the five injured trusted aides standing beside Yu Linglong were bewilderedly behind Ye Fan, with confusion written all over their faces.
Just now, he was clearly besieged by three Martial Venerable experts, a certain death situation, how come he’s suddenly fine now?
This Young Master Ye in front of them… called Ye Fan? Is he the same idiotic young master that Commander Yu insisted on marrying?
It turns out that Young Master Ye is so powerful, snatching all six of them from the hands of three Martial Venerable experts?
Before, when they heard that a woman as queenly as Commander Yu wanted to marry the Ye Family’s idiot, they felt very indignant on Commander Yu’s behalf.
But now, they were truly convinced!
Because Ye Fan suddenly appeared, rescuing Yu Linglong and several trusted aides, the entire scene went quiet, as if frozen in an instant.
After killing Lu Tian, Ye Fan took steady steps towards Matsumoto.
The thumping sound of his golden footsteps seemed to hammer on Matsumoto’s heart.
“Charge! All of you charge… Archers, all crossbow arrows, fire them…”
Matsumoto felt like his heart was about to leap out; he was very clear that with Ye Fan’s current strength, in a one-on-one fight, he had no chance of winning at all.
Moreover, a mature Martial Emperor expert could easily wipe out a nation single-handedly, and the elites brought by the Black Clothes Society might all charge up only to find it very difficult to kill Ye Fan.
Now Matsumoto could only hope that his useless subordinates could buy him some time, enough time for him to escape!
Outside in the Xuanwu Region, Commander Gu Feng had already led troops to siege Penglai Canyon. If he delayed any longer, it would be very difficult for Elder Xiao Quan at the other end to guard the retreat path.
Whizz whizz whizz!
Following Matsumoto’s command, countless crossbow arrows rained down like a storm toward Ye Fan!
These were enhanced crossbow arrows that could claim the lives of those in the realm of Grandmasters if within killing range.
They still posed a deadly threat to Martial Venerable experts.
But now they were facing Ye Fan, a Martial Emperor expert above the Martial Emperor Sixth Rank.
When the crossbow arrows were still three yards from Ye Fan, a visible ripple in the air had formed around his body, like a barrier, blocking hundreds of crossbow arrows outside.
Whoosh!
With just a casual wave of his hand, Ye Fan’s powerful Martial Arts Qi swept up those arrows and sent them back on their original path, instantly killing all the archers that fired the arrows.
In just an instant, Ye Fan had killed a hundred people with a single move!
And most of those Black Clothes Society martial arts experts were high masters of the Control Realm. In the secular world, each could be a big shot, commanding a territory. They were the elite forces of the Black Clothes Society.
And just like that, so many had perished in an instant!
Matsumoto felt his heart throbbing violently, for these were the core forces of the Black Clothes Society, the future hope of the society!
However, compared to the lives of his men, Matsumoto was more concerned about his own life.
“Keep attacking! Fourth squad, go… Even if it means self-destructing, stop him. We can’t let the entire Black Clothes Society be annihilated here. Now is the time for you to make the sacrifice for your comrades…”
Even now, Matsumoto was still brainwashing the young members of the Black Clothes Society.
But those blockheads were actually falling for it.
Several Control Realm experts directly employed sinister techniques to forcibly burn their life force, boosting their strength to the Martial Venerable Realm in an instant, charging towards Ye Fan to perish together with him.
Naturally, Martial Venerable experts were not capable of inflicting fatal injuries on Ye Fan!
But with their numbers, they still caused Ye Fan quite a bit of trouble!
Having launched continuous attacks just before, Ye Fan already felt his spiritual power and Martial Arts Qi draining extremely fast… If Gu Feng couldn’t arrive in time, it might indeed be troublesome for him…
But Ye Fan certainly would not agree to let Matsumoto just run away!
“You are responsible for looking after Linglong!” Ye Fan shouted at the Four Great Maids who were approaching, then activated his Teleportation Trait. In an instant, he rushed in front of several Black Clothes Society members preparing to continue self-destructing. As his hands formed a seal, he bellowed, “Change of Seasons!”
Ye Fan gave a wicked smile, flipped the direction of his palm, and smashed it toward the direction where Matsumoto was…
