Chapter 2344: Eight Origin Powerhouses!

As soon as they engaged, Tian Yuan let out all sorts of strange cries, making Ye Yuan's scalp tingle.

However, these strange cries were extremely formidable, containing sound wave attacks that were similar to the Dragon God's Voice.

Moreover, Tian Yuan's sound wave attack was not far from the power of origin.

Coupled with the opponent's strength at the fifth heaven of the Celestial Emperor realm, Ye Yuan, relying only on his physical strength, was no match.

"Hahaha, kid, now you know how formidable I am, right?" Tian Yuan said smugly.

Just then, the sound of swords rang out as Ye Yuan had already deployed his sword formation.

As the sword formation rose, Tian Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he cried out, "Kid, I didn't expect you to have such skills! Wife, come and help!"

Di Yang beside him was also astonished, clearly not expecting such a young fellow to have comprehended two types of origin power.

At her husband's summons, Di Yang joined the battle without hesitation.

But just like Tianyuan, Diyang also let out strange cries as soon as he entered.

However, their power was completely different.

When the two merged, their sonic attacks miraculously stepped into the realm of the origin!

Combined with their strength at the fifth level of the Heavenly Emperor realm, they actually fought Yeyuan to a standstill.

Yeyuan was greatly surprised; he had rarely encountered anyone who could contend with him on equal footing using the power of the origin.

To deal with Yeyuan, one could only rely on a superior realm to suppress him unreasonably.

Fighting him with the power of laws was equivalent to seeking death.

Of course, Yeyuan had no idea that the shock in Tianyuan and Diyang's hearts was a hundred times greater than his!

Just moments ago, they had brazenly said they wanted Yeyuan to follow them.

But in the blink of an eye, Yeyuan, facing two opponents alone, was locked in a fierce stalemate with them.

"Husband, this little one is incredible—he's actually comprehended two fundamental forces!"

"Wife, if our child hadn't died, he might be this formidable by now!"

"That's for sure!"

Ye Yuan frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "You two, how about we stop here?"

"Alright, alright, we'll stop! You're a tough little one. Let's talk instead, shall we?" Di Yang said.

Ye Yuan nodded. "Fine."

Di Yang was overjoyed and began chattering away with Ye Yuan.

It was clear she genuinely liked him.

Di Yang, like a big mouth, recounted anecdotes about their couple.

It turned out they had once been a very ordinary couple of Heavenly Sovereigns, not particularly outstanding.

They had a son and doted on him excessively.

Their son had astonishing talent—born a peak True God, he cultivated very quickly, reaching peak Heavenly Sovereign in just ten thousand years, only one step away from entering the Heavenly Emperor realm.

But misfortunes come without warning; their son offended a Heavenly Emperor expert and was killed by him.

The couple was overwhelmed with grief and thus underwent a drastic change in temperament.

As they say, fate is unpredictable, and this opened their path to defying heaven.

After losing their son, they were utterly despondent, left with only one thought: revenge.

But a Heavenly Emperor was far too strong for them!

In the end, supporting each other, the couple went further and further down the path of the Law of Sound.

Later, both broke through to Heavenly Emperor and even comprehended the Origin of Sound!

The Heavenly Emperor expert who once seemed invincible in their eyes had now become frail and weak.

The two killed the Heavenly Emperor, avenged their grudge, and from then on wandered the world.

This married couple, due to their eccentric personalities, provoked many powerful enemies.

But their strength was overwhelming, and relying on the power of sound origin, they even slew many formidable foes.

Later, they earned the reputation of Heavenly Mandarin Duck and Earthly Mandarin Duck.

Hearing their story, Ye Yuan sighed deeply and also felt that the ways of heaven were unfathomable.

Under normal circumstances, these two would never have become such great beings.

But because of their son's death, they had ended up in this situation.

"Little one, I felt a connection with you the moment I saw you, as if you were just like our son. Moreover, you are different from others. When others see us entangled like this, they want to kill us, but you didn't." Earthly Mandarin Duck laughed.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I won't attack unless attacked. Since you two mean me no harm, I naturally won't strike. Well, thank you for your hospitality, but I really must go cultivate. Farewell."

Earthly Mandarin Duck looked reluctant, but they knew they couldn't keep Ye Yuan, so they had to let him go.

Just as Ye Yuan was about to leave, his expression suddenly changed.

Ripples spread through the surrounding space, and powerful auras emerged from the void.

"Heavenly Mandarin Duck and Earthly Mandarin Duck, we've been looking for you for a long time! This time, where do you think you can run?"

A man in a black robe stepped out of the void, looking at the pair with resentment.

At the same time, seven figures appeared from the other seven directions.

The aura of each of these eight people was extremely powerful, not at all inferior to Heavenly Mandarin Duck and Earthly Mandarin Duck.

Heavenly Mandarin Duck frowned, looking at the black-robed man and said gravely, "Jiang Zhe, you really are a persistent ghost! And you lot, you've actually banded together!"

"Heh, you two monsters, you've offended so many experts! Today, with the eight of us origin experts joining forces, let's see where you can run! From now on, every time we see you, we'll kill you!" said Jiang Zhe.

Ye Yuan's expression changed upon hearing this. All eight of them were origin experts!

Just how much trouble had this couple stirred up, to actually draw eight origin experts to join forces?

But given their eccentric personalities, it was indeed possible.

Now, these eight had clearly banded together to deal with them.

Earthly Mandarin Duck frowned and said, "Fine, let Young Friend Ye leave first. Then we'll settle our accounts slowly!"

Jiang Zhe glanced at Ye Yuan and said disdainfully, "This little thing hanging out with you two old freaks—how could he be anything good? Naturally... we'll kill him too!"

Sizzle...

As he spoke, Jiang Zhe flicked his finger, and a crackling ball of lightning shot toward Ye Yuan at an inconceivable speed.

Thunder Origin!

Ye Yuan frowned and raised his hand, using the Instantaneous Dragon Claw.

Boom!

The lightning ball was directly annihilated by Ye Yuan's heavy punch.

Jiang Zhe had underestimated Ye Yuan, so his move was very casual, and Ye Yuan's counter was equally casual.

But in Jiang Zhe's eyes, it was somewhat surprising.

"Oh, interesting! This kid is actually from the Dragon Clan, and has achieved perfect eightfold transformation! In this Tongtian Realm, not many can cultivate their physical body to perfect eightfold transformation. Kid, what's your name?"

Clearly, Jiang Zhe had taken an interest in Ye Yuan.

"None of your damn business!" Ye Yuan said flatly.

What he hated most was people like Jiang Zhe, who casually decided the fate of others.

He had come looking for trouble with Heavenly Mandarin Duck and Earthly Mandarin Duck, yet he wanted to involve others.

Without Ye Yuan saying a word, he had already decided to kill him.

So naturally, Ye Yuan wouldn't give Jiang Zhe any good face.

Jiang Zhe was stunned at first, then his face darkened, and he said grimly, "Kid, I was going to spare your life. But now it seems you're asking for death!"
