Chapter 757: Chapter 0675: Don’t Think Too Highly of Yourself
Ye Qingfeng casually put one hand in his pocket, his face indifferent: "I didn’t think someone from the Ancient Martial Sect would know about me. Interesting!"
"What?"
As his words fell, eyes filled with shock landed on Ye Qingfeng, nearly bulging out of their sockets. Especially amongst the young disciples, their hearts kept trembling with disbelief.
The Invincible War God, Ye Jiujie, though not a member of the Ancient Martial Sect, was nonetheless ranked first on the Hua Xia Hidden Dragon List and thirty-fifth on the War God List, universally recognized as a Godslayer level figure.
Even within the Ancient Martial Sect, this name resounded throughout the universe, celebrated by countless younger generations, those top-tier martial arts geniuses could only bow their heads in shame under this name, not daring to compare themselves even slightly.
Zu Feng stood stiff, frozen in place, while the sisters of the Yi Family widened their eyes, the shock in their hearts greater than anyone else’s.
Could this Yanjing University student, whom they traveled with, thinking he was just an ordinary person, actually be the world-renowned Invincible War God Ye Jiujie?
"Oh my god!"
Yi Yue covered her face, stepping back in fear, feeling like a complete fool. The idol she thought about day and night had traveled alongside her from Yanjing, yet she hadn’t spoken more than fifty sentences with Ye Qingfeng. She felt an urge to strangle herself.
Yi Xun’s beautiful eyes stayed fixed on Ye Qingfeng, and after the initial shock wore off, her pretty face flushed red.
"He was also on the boat that day; he must have heard what I said!"
This proud and cold Thunderbolt Sect female genius felt shyness for the first time.
Qiao Lianxiang’s beautiful eyes held indescribable shock. She had met Ye Qingfeng by chance before, when Ye Qingfeng was just an ordinary Martial Artist who hadn’t even reached War Master level. Now, just a few years later, Ye Qingfeng had grown to such an extent, becoming revered by everyone, even to the point where she, a Sect Master, felt inadequate compared to the Invincible War God?
This pace of advancement, it’s simply monstrous!
"Junior Brother Bo, this..."
The Sect Master of Thunderbolt Sect, Dao Xuzi, and the other five elders looked at Bo Yuanzi with surprise on their faces.
They truly hadn’t expected that Bo Yuanzi would recruit such a powerful ally for Thunderbolt Sect.
A single man capable of destroying an entire sect, Ye Jiujie is undoubtedly Thunderbolt Sect’s lifeline at this moment.
"With the War God here, our Thunderbolt Sect is saved!"
Bo Yuanzi laughed.
The five elders of the Demon Punishment Palace had long been in secluded cultivation and did not know who Ye Jiujie was, but the others in the Demon Punishment Palace were filled with terror at the mention of Ye Jiujie and the tragic fate of the Poison King. How could they not know that this young man was an incredibly formidable top-ranking expert?
The five looked solemn, drawing closer to Fang Li, eyes filled with caution.
Fang Li’s face was uncertain. Though the Demon Punishment Palace was situated in a small world, it also had a network of information in the Mortal World and knew well of all kinds of intelligence. Ye Jiujie’s prowess was something Fang Li was aware of.
He could never have imagined that in such a surefire situation, such a terrifying opponent would suddenly appear.
"Ye Jiujie, you are a top expert in the Mortal World, and I, Fang Li, naturally respect that, but this is an internal matter of our Ancient Martial Sect. Why do you interfere?"
Fang Li knew of Ye Qingfeng’s terrifying achievements and had no desire to engage with such a fearsome existence.
"Hmph!" Ye Qingfeng sneered, "Not to mention that I promised Bo Yuanzi to help Thunderbolt Sect just this once!"
He pointed his finger at Qiao Lianxiang, his gaze filled with cold intent.
"Just hurting her alone is enough for you to die a hundred times!"
Qiao Lianxiang’s heart trembled slightly with both surprise and delight, realizing she held such an important place in Ye Qingfeng’s heart.
The long-unbidden strings of her heart were stirred, bringing a very sweet sensation.
Standing by, Miao Miao’s expression turned peculiar, feeling somewhat aggrieved inside.
Ye Qingfeng held her in disregard, as if she were a passerby, yet he would get angry for Qiao Lianxiang and wipe out all external enemies. The difference was more than just a bit.
Fang Li’s gaze grew deeper; there was no room for negotiation in Ye Qingfeng’s words. He could already feel the rising killing intent emanating from Ye Qingfeng.
"So, sir, have you decided to oppose us?"
He feared Ye Qingfeng, but not to the point of dread. After all, he was truly a War Emperor expert, even though only a Basic-level War Emperor, yet enough to dominate.
After all, he was the devilish genius of the Ancient Martial Sect, and the resources of the Demon Xing Palace were all poured into him.
Ye Qingfeng had managed to kill so many Half-step War Emperors single-handedly; it was likely he was also a War Emperor. With War Emperor against War Emperor, what was there to fear? As the most outstanding genius of the Demon Xing Palace, he had as much arrogance as anyone else.
"Oppose you? Don’t overestimate yourselves!"
Ye Qingfeng lightly waved his finger, his voice overwhelmingly domineering, echoing through the heavens.
"I’m merely here to kill you; you’re not qualified to be my enemies!"
"Today, except for those from the Lotus Sect and Thunderbolt Sect, not a single person who set foot on the mountain will leave!"
Everyone was inwardly terrified. They had all heard of Ye Jiujie’s arrogance that shook the heavens, looking down on the world. Today, they finally understood what it meant to be truly and boundlessly arrogant.
In face of such a powerful lineup of the Demon Xing Palace, Ye Jiujie wanted to wipe them all out with just a word. Who else could have such audacity?
"Haha!"
Fang Li laughed in anger. Since taking over the Demon Xing Palace, he had never encountered such an arrogant opponent; Ye Qingfeng’s words had already ignited boundless rage in his heart.
"Ye Jiujie, everyone talks about you as if you’re a legend; today, I would like to see what qualifies you to make such wild statements!"
Fang Li suddenly stomped his foot, causing the earth to tremble as an aura surged to the sky, making the entire Thunderbolt Sect shiver and shake under this imposing aura.
The clouds in the sky scattered, and even minute cracks appeared in space, showcasing Fang Li’s formidable aura.
Everyone turned their gaze to Ye Qingfeng; they had only ever heard of the Invincible War God’s earth-shattering combat prowess and never witnessed it. Now, facing a true War Emperor expert, they all wanted to see if the Invincible War God was truly as strong and terrifying as rumored.
Confronted with the earth-shattering, terrifying aura of Fang Li, Ye Qingfeng stood amidst it yet remained calm and serene, his eyes still cold and indifferent.
"Boom!"
Fang Li made no move, but his released aura formed several gusts of fist winds, descending from the sky, striking toward Ye Qingfeng.
The sound of explosions rang out as Ye Qingfeng was instantly engulfed in a vortex of Qi Force, with dust flying, obscuring his figure.
"Feng!"
Qiao Lianxiang’s beautiful eyes focused suddenly, heart filled with fear and anxiety. Ye Qingfeng was surrounded by such a violent attack and remained still; she wished she could swap places with Ye Qingfeng to bear this storm-like assault.
"Hmph, Ye Jiujie, Invincible War God? What’s the big deal?"
Fang Li let out a wicked smile; in his eyes, Ye Qingfeng’s arrogance was an enormous weak point.
"I hope you can still laugh in a while!"
A calm voice spoke from within the dust and smoke, causing Fang Li’s eyes to narrow as he looked in astonishment.
