Chapter 422: Blossoms in Full Bloom

Ye Yuan glanced coldly at these Sea Transformation realm martial artists and said indifferently, "Don't blame me. Blame... Huang Wenqiu. Safe journey."

Ye Yuan's indifferent attitude thoroughly enraged these people.

They were all outstanding among their peers, and though they relied on the Huang family, they had their own pride.

And now, they were being ignored by a seventh-level Crystal Formation cultivator.

"Kid, you're too arrogant! Do you really think you're invincible?"

"You're taking on so many of us alone. Do you think we're made of paper?"

"Heh, so cocky now. You'll be crying soon enough!"

As they were cursing, their expressions suddenly changed!

The surrounding world energy underwent a subtle shift, and countless pink petals began to coalesce in the air!

"Not good! This kid can actually manipulate world energy. Attack now!"

These people were no novices; they quickly sensed something wrong and unleashed their ultimate moves.

But how could Ye Yuan give them a chance?

Having broken through to the late Crystal Formation stage, Ye Yuan was no longer far from the Sea Transformation realm, and his affinity with world energy had qualitatively improved.

Now, when he unleashed Thousand Streams Flying Flowers, its power was incomparable to before.

The sky was filled with pink petals, enveloping the entire arena, and the martial artists below couldn't even see what was happening on stage!

"This... what kind of technique is this? It's terrifying!"

"My god, he's only at the seventh level of Crystal Formation, yet his control over world energy has reached such an astonishing degree! Even a late Crystal Formation cultivator probably couldn't pull off this move, right?"

However, a group of female martial artists were enchanted by the scene.

"Wow, it's so beautiful! Young Master Ji must be a very romantic person to unleash such a gorgeous technique."

Seeing this, Shangguan Lingxue's eyes sparkled. "I'm a bit envious of Sister Ruyan now, to have such an extraordinary man fight all the heroes of the world for her. If a man did this for me, I'd die without regret! With a husband like that, what more could I ask for?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chengqian's face instantly turned green.

Shangguan Lingxue was a very proud woman, and he had pursued her for years without receiving such praise.

Her words just now clearly showed she was already moved!

Yet that Ji Qing was still fighting for Xiao Ruyan!

Zhao Chengqian's heart suddenly became extremely agitated, and he felt an impulse to rush down and kill Ye Yuan.

"Thousand Streams Flying Flowers, slash!"

Five words were spoken indifferently by Ye Yuan, and the flying petals, which had been drifting peacefully, now turned violent, charging recklessly toward the dozen or so martial artists.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

...

For a moment, screams filled the air, sending chills down everyone's spines.

They couldn't see what was happening in the sea of petals, but from the screams alone, they knew that behind those beautiful petals, something unpleasant was occurring.

After more than ten breaths, the petals dissipated, and only a solitary figure remained on the arena—who else could it be but Ye Yuan?

The dozen or so martial artists, including those at the fifth level of Sea Transformation, lay scattered on the arena floor.

"This... what a joke? Over a dozen mid-Sea Transformation experts, taken out in one move?"

"Unbelievable! This Ji Qing is like a bottomless pit; you never know his limits! He one-shotted a ninth-level Crystal Formation, one-shotted a first-level Sea Transformation, one-shotted a third-level Sea Transformation, and now a group of fourth and fifth-level Sea Transformation—all taken out in one move!"

"But this move is truly overwhelming! It's hard to imagine that a Crystal Formation cultivator could mobilize so much world energy!"

Exclamations arose everywhere; this scene had brought too strong a shock to everyone.

Seeing this, Huang Wenqiu's face turned deathly pale.

These martial artists were the elite of the Huang family's younger generation, and they had died miserably at Ye Yuan's hands!

How would he explain this to his father when he returned?

This time, he had really messed up!

He had thought that with over a dozen people ganging up on Ye Yuan, they couldn't lose too badly, but Ye Yuan had wiped them all out in one move!

This Ye Yuan was truly too monstrous!

Huang Wenqiu glared at Ye Yuan, his eyes blazing with fury.

At that moment, Ye Yuan also looked over and smiled, "Don't waste time. Both of you, come at me together!"

Huang Wenqiu and Xue Zaihe's expressions changed, and they involuntarily exchanged glances.

"Are you sure you want to challenge both of us?" Huang Wenqiu sneered.

"So much nonsense. Didn't I make myself clear?" Ye Yuan said indifferently.

"Heh, Huang Wenqiu, it seems we've been looked down upon! How about... we go up and clear our names?" Xue Zaihe said with a faint smile.

Huang Wenqiu nodded grimly. "Though I'm reluctant to join forces with you, since he's asking for death, we'll have to cooperate. If I don't kill this kid today, I won't be able to quell my hatred!"

"Heh, there's a limit to arrogance, isn't there? We're also at the fifth level of Sea Transformation, but does he think that one move is enough to finish us?" Xue Zaihe's smile gradually turned cold.

Among the younger generation of the entire royal city, he only feared Shangguan Lingyun and Zhao Chengqian.

Today, being looked down upon by a Crystal Formation kid was extremely infuriating.

"Fine! Then let us, two rivals, cooperate well today! After we deal with this kid, we'll settle the matter of Ruyan with a good fight!" Huang Wenqiu said.

Having caused such a huge mess, Huang Wenqiu had to kill Ye Yuan today and marry Xiao Ruyan, or he wouldn't be able to answer to his family.

"Young Master Ji actually wants to challenge both Huang Wenqiu and Xue Zaihe together. That move... is a bit rash!"

"Exactly! These two are known as the second-strongest among the royal city's younger generation, and that reputation is well-deserved. The previous ones, even if they were at the same level, were far inferior in strength."

"Young Master Ji's move just now was powerful, but it was only strong in area attacks. With Huang Wenqiu and Xue Zaihe's strength, they should be able to counter it easily. Fighting two against one, Young Master Ji is at a big disadvantage!"

The strength of Huang Wenqiu and Xue Zaihe was deeply ingrained in people's minds; these martial artists knew how formidable they were.

As for the top two, Shangguan Lingyun and Zhao Chengqian, they dared not even imagine.

After all, Ye Yuan was only at the seventh level of Crystal Formation; facing these two experts was too much of a disadvantage.

The two leaped onto the arena, and Huang Wenqiu sneered, "Ji Qing, you're asking for death. Don't blame me! Killing you on the arena, I believe Emperor Star Abyss won't hold it against me!"

Ye Yuan said indifferently, "As long as you have the ability, naturally no one will trouble you."
