Chapter 49: Chapter 49

“I didn’t expect it to actually turn out like this.”

Qin Jue sighed helplessly.

Initially, he wanted to see what exactly would happen to Ye Liangchen. In the end, it was exactly the outcome he had predicted previously.

If Ye Liangchen escaped, he would probably return as a stronger Supreme Stage cultivator a few years later.

Just as Qin Jue was feeling disappointed, Ye Liangchen below had already broken through the Yellow Stage, Profound Stage, and Earth Stage successively and stepped into the Heaven rank. Before the two instructors could react, they were blasted far away.

However, at this moment, Ye Liangchen’s aura was vast and boundless. Even his hair had turned silver. It was very obvious that this power did not belong to him.

“Hmph, I want to see who can stop me!”

The person who was currently inhabiting Ye Liangchen’s body had a tone that was insufferably arrogant.

“You’re finally willing to reveal yourself.”

The First Elder’s expression did not change, as if he had already expected this.

“Oh? Late-phase Heaven Stage? Not bad. You can already be considered a top-notch expert in a small place like this. But in my eyes, you’re no different from an ant.”

“Ye Liangchen” glanced at the First Elder and said disdainfully, “What? You want to stop my disciple from leaving?”

Looking at “Ye Liangchen”‘s current aura, temperament, and arrogance, Qin Jue was now absolutely certain that Ye Liangchen was backed by some hidden grandpa.

However, why was Ye Liangchen starting to seem more like a villain rather than a heroic main character?

“Since this person is your disciple, why did you let him join the Xuanyi Mountain Sect in the first place?”

First Elder was still calm and collected, there was no hint of panic.

If it was in the past, the First Elder might have some scruples, but now, there was a super expert that could even annihilate the Wei Clan standing behind him, so why would he be afraid of this “Ye Liangchen” who stood before him?

“Why should I tell you?”

“Ye Liangchen” sneered. “It is your Xuanyi Mountain Sect’s honor to have my disciple join you.”

The First Elder’s face darkened. “Aren’t you being too arrogant?”

“Arrogant? You weren’t even born when I dominated the Spirit Central World.”

“Ye Liangchen” ‘s eyes were deep, as if he was recalling something.

“Is that so? Then how come you’re dead?” First Elder sneered.

“…”

“Hmph! Cut the crap. I don’t have the time to waste on you. I’ll remember what happened today. I’ll definitely seek ten times the revenge for what happened today!”

These words basically meant that he won’t stop until the sect was annihilated, so how could the First Elder let him go so easily?

“In that case, let me have a good taste of your strength.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the First Elder took the initiative to attack. His spirit energy swept towards Ye Liangchen like a stream that covered the heavens and the earth, and he didn’t have the slightest intention of holding back.

“Child’s play.”

“Ye Liangchen” pursed his lips as a dazzling white light suddenly erupted from his body, illuminating the square in a tragic manner. At the same time, “Ye Liangchen” clenched his five fingers, and it was as if the heavens and the earth had been grabbed into his palm. The attack that the First Elder had sent out was instantly resolved, leaving nothing behind.

“Am I seeing things correctly? Was Ye Liangchen actually able to block First Elder’s attack!”

“How is this possible? Could he also be a Heaven Stage expert?!”

“I must be dreaming!”

“…”

Even though many higher-ups of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect had already discerned that this force did not belong to Ye Liangchen, the other disciples still could not tell. At this moment, they only knew that Ye Liangchen was standing in midair and had forcefully blocked the First Elder’s attack!

“Peak Heaven Stage?”

The First Elder had a solemn expression. At this moment, he’d already discerned that “Ye Liangchen” had shockingly attained the peak of the Heaven Stage.

“Do you still think you can stop me now?”

“Ye Liangchen…” He placed his hands behind his back and said disdainfully.

Before he could finish his sentence, a long laugh suddenly sounded from the high platform. “What would happen if I joined the fight?”

In the next moment, Bai Ye appeared on the spot, and his aura was profound and was able to actually faintly suppress Ye Liangchen.

“Peak of the Heaven Stage?” Ye Liangchen’s expression finally changed.

“I don’t care who you were in the past. Since you’ve infiltrated our Xuanyi Mountain Sect and deliberately injured our disciples, you will have to pay.”

Bai Ye’s expression was calm as he spoke with an unquestionable tone.

It was only at times like these that Bai Ye would reveal his might as the sect master of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect.

“What do you want?” “Ye Liangchen” remained vigilant.

“It’s very simple. Cripple your cultivation and stay in the cave for three months.”

Bai Ye said matter-of-factly.

Since the other party was already prepared to fight to the death, how could Bai Ye be merciful?

“What if I don’t agree?”

“Then don’t blame us for bullying you with numbers.”

“Hehe, I’m afraid you don’t have the ability.”

“Ye Liangchen” said coldly.

With the strength of Bai Ye and First Elder, it might not be difficult to defeat him, but it was absolutely impossible for them to keep him here.

Bai Ye didn’t continue to waste his breath on Ye Liangchen. Instead, he directly activated the energy of the heavens and the earth to suppress Ye Liangchen.

One had to know that Bai Ye had once fought two strong enemies all by himself. Even then, he wasn’t at a disadvantage despite having fought a peak Heaven Stage expert and a late-phase Heaven Stage expert. Moreover, he had the enhancement of a Supreme Stage spirit artifact. So unless “Ye Liangchen” was able to surpass the Supreme Stage, he didn’t stand a chance against the two of them.

However, “Ye Liangchen” had no intention of attacking at all. He practically soared into the sky the instant Bai Ye attacked and flew into the distance.

He wasn’t an idiot, so he naturally wouldn’t fight Bai Ye in the Xuanyi Mountain Sect.

“You sure run fast.”

Bai Ye snorted and was about to give chase when “Ye Liangchen”, who had originally disappeared into the horizon, suddenly reappeared on the square.

Everyone: “???”

What was going on?

At the same time, “Ye Liangchen” was also dumbfounded. What was going on? He had clearly used a secret technique and instantly flew more than five kilometers away. Why had he returned?

“Impossible!”

‘Ye Liangchen’ gritted his teeth and executed the secret technique again, instantly disappearing on the spot.

However, two seconds later, just like before, “Ye Liangchen” reappeared in the square again.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Was this guy trying to be funny?

“Damn it!” “How could this be?”

“Ye Liangchen” roared in disbelief, and then he hurriedly executed another secret technique to change directions and flee. However, he still ended up returning to his original spot.

“Hu hu, how could this be…”

“Ye Liangchen” breathed heavily. More than half of his spirit energy had been consumed. Under normal circumstances, he should be thousands of kilometers away by now, but the reality was that he hadn’t even left the square.

Could there be a spatial array formation set up here?

“Ye Liangchen” found this to be a little absurd. How could such a small and remote faction possibly have a spatial formation?

Witnessing this scene, Bai Ye and the First Elder were first stunned, but then they simultaneously looked at Qin Jue on the high platform. Although Qin Jue was leisurely drinking spirit wine at this moment, as if nothing had happened, both of them knew that Qin Jue must have done something, causing “Ye Liangchen” to keep on turning in place.

“Looks like you’re not going anywhere.”

Bai Ye stroked his beard and smiled.

“…”
