In the arena, Li Guangrui and Ye Qingyun were suppressed by Fan Wuji's Saint power, unable to move.
After Fan Wuji sternly rebuked them, Jiang Ye slightly turned his head, his gaze falling upon Ye Qingyun on the ground, his eyes cold and devoid of emotion.
“Young Master is giving you one last chance.”
“Kowtow and apologize to the Elders of the Fan Family and Miss Fan, admit your previous recklessness and transgressions, and perhaps your lives can be spared.”
Li Guangrui's face was ashen, he gasped for breath, his eyes bloodshot.
“Apologize? Dream on! Even if I, Li Guangrui, die, I will never bow my head to you!”
“I understand now, you are no ordinary Cultivator, your background is definitely not simple, the Fan Family is so obsequious in fawning over you, you don't even care about the Bixia Heavenly Palace!”
Seeing this, Ye Qingyun knew that things could not continue.
He endured the sharp pain in his chest, looked at Jiang Ye with determined eyes, but his tone carried a hint of sternness: “Everything started because of me, it has nothing to do with Brother Li.”
“If the Fan Family is so insistent on breaking off the engagement, I, Ye Qingyun, have nothing more to say.”
“As for today’s matter...”
“Young Master Jiang, do you dare to have a fair fight with me? If Young Master wins, I will accept any punishment; if I win, then do not make things difficult for us today, how about it?”
The arena fell silent once more.
Everyone showed surprise, Fan Family Disciples whispered to each other, discussing animatedly.
“Is he crazy? He couldn't even take one palm strike, and he still wants to challenge Young Master Jiang?”
“This Ye Qingyun has some spirit, but he is too ignorant of his own limitations.”
“He will lose even more miserably, perhaps even losing all his dignity.”
Jiang Ye smiled faintly, but it was not appreciation, but mockery.
Do all Protagonists of Destiny have a common flaw?
As soon as they open their mouths, it's “Do you dare to fight me”?
Do they really think this is a novel plot?
He is not one of those brainless villains.
The advantage is with me, why should I fight you?
These Protagonists of Destiny, why are they all so naive, always thinking of reversing an outcome with a single battle, like brainless hotheads.
For him, the process is not important, the result is what matters most.
As long as he can achieve his goal, he doesn't mind using any means.
Jiang Ye's face held a faint smile as he stated concisely: “I refuse.”
Ye Qingyun's face stiffened, his fists clenched tighter, veins bulging.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Jiang Ye refused to fight, showing no mercy, as if he didn't care if his Dao Heart would be damaged by it.
Most people in the world are utterly ridiculous, will the so-called Dao Heart be damaged if one doesn't fight?
How many failures are there in this world, do they never get up again after losing?
For Jiang Ye, as long as he can constantly grow stronger, what does it matter if he uses any means?
The final result will prove everything.
Between life and death, there is great excitement; the one who lives to the end is the true winner.
“There is never absolute fairness in the world, only the weak pray for fairness.”
Jiang Ye's words left Ye Qingyun speechless; he had never encountered such a person.
Ye Qingyun couldn't help but frown, a troubled expression on his face.
In the past, no matter what dangers or difficulties he encountered, he was always able to overcome them with his wisdom and perseverance.
But now, facing this mysterious Young Master, the tried-and-true routines that had always worked seemed to have lost their effectiveness.
This made him feel somewhat at a loss for a moment.
But in front of Jiang Ye, all his pride, experience, and foundation seemed like child's play.
The other party does not reason with you.
He does not conform to the decorum of traditional Cultivators.
And Jiang Ye is precisely standing at a high position, acting unscrupulously and bullying others with his power.
He still had no solution.
Ye Qingyun could actually use some trump cards given to him by the grandfathers of Wangchen Village when he left, to forcefully teleport away from this place.
But in that case, he wouldn't be able to take Li Guangrui with him.
This filled his heart with unwillingness; he would never abandon his good friend like this.
At this moment, Fan Wuji's gaze coldly swept over Ye Qingyun and Li Guangrui, his tone carrying a hint of threat: “Ye Qingyun, Li Guangrui, you two caused trouble within my Fan Family's territory, and even dared to offend my Fan Family's distinguished guest. If you don't give a reasonable explanation, don't even think about leaving the Fan Family today!”
“Fan Family!”
“Don't go too far!”
Li Guangrui's eyes were bloodshot with rage, filled with scarlet veins.
“Brother Li...”
Ye Qingyun muttered, a trace of emotion flashing in his eyes, but more so, determination.
Suddenly, a wisp of green light hidden in his sleeve flashed, as if a dormant volcano had erupted instantly.
Swish!
An ancient longsword flew out, suspended above Ye Qingyun's head.
Upon the sword's body, countless intricate and ancient runes were engraved, each line seemingly carrying the Law of a heaven and earth.
“Saint Weapon!” A Fan Family Elder exclaimed in shock, his face filled with terror.
As Ye Qingyun continuously activated the hand seals, four other Saint Weapons emitting different lights, and two ancient jade talismans adorned with profound runes, slowly emerged from his sleeve, revolving around his body, radiating a soul-stirring brilliance.
“I originally didn't want to use these, but you... have gone too far in bullying me!”
He roared, and the divine weapons chimed in unison, actually forcing back Fan Wuji's Saint might!
“Brother Li, let's go!”
Ye Qingyun helped Li Guangrui up and attempted to flee into the Void Realm.
Everyone's eyes widened; they had never expected a mere True King Realm boy to carry so many Saint Weapons.
Moreover, the power of the Saint Weapons he could unleash was not low.
This was also a prodigy.
It was simply outrageous.
“Stop them, quickly!”
Fan Wuji erupted with Saint power, shouting with a solemn expression.
The more Ye Qingyun displayed such powerful talent, the more he wanted him to die!
Such a prodigy.
If he was allowed to escape, there would be endless trouble in the future.
Jiang Ye's expression remained as calm as water; he slowly looked up.
Ye Qingyun and Li Guangrui had not even rushed out a hundred zhang when the Void Realm suddenly solidified, making it impossible for them to move an inch.
A pressure even more terrifying than Fan Wuji's descended with a roar.
A figure silently stepped out of the Void Realm, gently pressing a hand in the direction of Ye Qingyun and Li Guangrui. The action was understated, yet it contained a terrifying power, directly dispelling the Saint Weapon's might around Ye Qingyun, and slamming them into the ground below like swatting flies!
Boom!
A giant, tomb-deep pit appeared on the ground.
At the bottom of the pit.
Ye Qingyun was covered in blood, his clothes tattered, but he still desperately protected Li Guangrui, who was on the verge of death, in his arms, fresh red blood constantly spilling from the corners of his mouth.
He looked up, his eyes filled with unwillingness and tenacity.
“Supreme Realm expert...” Li Guangrui's pupils contracted.
Fan Wuji and the others were also dumbfounded; the might of a Supreme Realm expert's attack was truly terrifying.
It suppressed them, making them unable to breathe.
