Chapter 2268: One Man Suppresses the Divine Race!

"G-Great One! How... how did you get here?"

Ning Tianping opened his eyes and saw Ye Yuan, extremely surprised, struggling to get up.

Ye Yuan quickly pressed him down and said with authority, "Lie still, don't move!"

Ning Tianping had only just woken up; his injuries were far from healed.

This time, Ning Tianping's injuries were extremely severe, barely holding on to life, so naturally he couldn't recover so quickly.

Seeing Rong Xiyue, Ning Tianping quickly realized what had happened.

"Great One, I... I've caused you trouble!" Ning Tianping said, his expression dark, gritting his teeth.

He had come this time to avenge his master, but unexpectedly he had stumbled straight into the territory of the Death Soul Sect.

Mo Lifei had been killed protecting him.

After being captured by Rong Xiyue, he was subjected to all kinds of torture to extract more information about Ye Yuan.

But he hadn't said a single word.

Ye Yuan said calmly, "It's good that you're safe. Now, let's settle scores—an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"

Suddenly, Ning Tianping noticed Rong Xiyue beside him, and his shock was no small matter.

"Great One, she... she..."

"She is a member of the Divine Race, and this is the small world of the Hidden Lineage of the Divine Race. Hmm, don't worry, they're very busy right now," Ye Yuan said calmly.

As he spoke, the door of the medicine hut was pushed open, and Ru Feng entered with a face as dark as water.

Clearly, after working hard for most of the day, he had finally managed to suppress the spread of the poison.

He had exerted tremendous effort to freeze all the world's spiritual energy in the entire Hidden Lineage, thereby curbing the poison's spread.

Other than that, he had no other way.

But this could only treat the symptoms, not the root cause.

In the end, he could only beg Ye Yuan for help.

After all this trouble, Ru Feng realized just how terrifying the poison was.

In just a short while, the poison had spread far faster than he had anticipated.

Although the Divine Race had a sparse population, the Hidden Lineage had accumulated over countless years, and this small world still housed a considerable number of Divine Race experts.

His reaction had been very fast, yet thousands of clansmen had still died.

Those at the Seven-Pattern Heavenly Dao Realm barely managed to hold on without dying, but they couldn't last much longer.

As for those at the Eight-Pattern Heavenly Dao Realm, while the poison couldn't kill them, they would likely have to live with it for the rest of their lives.

Most of their energy would have to be spent suppressing the toxicity.

This poison was too potent!

"Boy, hand over the antidote!" Ru Feng said, his face dark as water.

Ye Yuan glanced at him and said calmly, "Is this your attitude when asking for help? If I give you the antidote now, wouldn't I seem cheap?"

Ru Feng realized that this kid was like a hedgehog—impossible to get a grip on.

The Hidden Lineage had lived in seclusion for countless years, always peaceful and calm.

But this kid had been here less than a day and had already turned the entire Hidden Lineage upside down.

The key point was that he couldn't do anything about this guy!

So infuriating!

Killing Ye Yuan would be simple, but once the poison spread, the entire small world would likely become a dead zone.

In the end, only those at the high Eight-Pattern Heavenly Dao Realm would remain.

Ru Feng gritted his teeth, and his tone finally softened. "Young friend Ye, we are truly sorry about this young friend's matter! After this is over, I will find a way to compensate you. Please hand over the antidote!"

As he said this, he wished he could slap himself twice.

Who was he?

One of the Nine Elders of the Hidden Lineage!

His status was so exalted, yet he had to humble himself before a human.

Ye Yuan glanced at him and said calmly, "Your words are still a bit stiff, but at least they're listenable now. However... you're not qualified enough."

Ru Feng's expression changed, and he said coldly, "Boy, don't go too far!"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "Have the Great Elder come; he barely qualifies."

Ru Feng's expression shifted wildly, and he said in shock and anger, "The Great Elder's status is far too noble; he cannot possibly come to apologize to you!"

Ye Yuan shrugged, unconcerned, and said, "Then you can kill me now. With tens of millions of Divine Race members as burial companions, my brother and I will have had our fill. And you can rest assured, you will never find the antidote on me."

Tens of millions of Divine Race members might sound like a lot, but compared to the human and demon races, it was a drop in the bucket.

Ru Feng wished he could pounce on this guy and strangle him!

The Hidden Lineage had expended so much effort to accumulate this little bit of wealth.

Ye Yuan had poisoned them all to death in one go!

Of course, another option was a full-scale migration.

But at this critical juncture, the human greats were already stirring; such a large-scale migration could not escape their notice.

And then they would still die.

Before this, Ru Feng would never have imagined that the mighty Divine Race would have to bow its head to a human.

Humans should be groveling at their feet.

Ru Feng's face flickered with uncertainty, then he suddenly snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Beside him, Rong Xiyue and Ning Tianping were already dumbfounded.

Such a supreme expert didn't even dare to breathe loudly in front of Ye Yuan.

Too terrifying!

Ning Tianping had thought he was doomed this time, but who knew that as soon as the Great One arrived, he had the entire Divine Race bowing their heads!

If nothing unexpected happened, the Great Elder would still have to come in person.

Otherwise, if these tens of millions of Divine Race members died, these Heavenly Emperors would become commanders without an army.

But just as Ru Feng went to find the Great Elder, Song Shu arrived, escorting Li Zhaoqing.

When Ning Tianping saw Li Zhaoqing, his eyes blazed with fury.

Li Zhaoqing's face was ashen. When he saw Rong Xiyue, he clung to her like a lifeline, directly embracing her feet and wailing, "Holy Maiden, s-save me! I have served the Death Soul Sect for hundreds of thousands of years and made great contributions! You... you can't just watch me die!"

Li Zhaoqing knew nothing about the Divine Race; Rong Xiyue's public identity was the Holy Maiden of the Death Soul Sect.

Rong Xiyue said bitterly, "It's not that I won't save you, but I can't even save myself now! You... you're on your own."

With that, she looked at Ye Yuan.

A cold gleam flashed, and Ye Yuan cut off a corner of the table. His sword moved like the wind, quickly carving it into the shape of a memorial tablet.

His fingers moved slightly, and he carved characters onto the tablet out of thin air.

After finishing, he placed the tablet on the table and said to Li Zhaoqing, "Kneel!"

Li Zhaoqing's expression changed as he looked at the tablet, which read "Memorial Tablet of the Late Master Mo Lifei"!

Li Zhaoqing was completely dazed. He didn't understand why, just for dealing with a kid at the early Heavenly Sovereign Realm, he had been inexplicably captured.

Could it be that the mighty Death Soul Sect was afraid of a Heavenly Sovereign?

The Death Soul Sect had over a dozen Heavenly Emperor-level experts!

"Thump!" Li Zhaoqing didn't hesitate for a moment and knelt directly.

"Kowtow and confess your sins!" Ye Yuan said coldly, his words carrying an unquestionable authority.

"G-Great One, spare my life! I'll kowtow! I'll kowtow! Brother Mo, I was just following orders; it really wasn't my fault!"

Saying this, Li Zhaoqing kowtowed wildly before the memorial tablet.

Ning Tianping was deeply moved. If not for the Great One, he would never have been able to avenge this in his lifetime, right?
