Chapter 447: Venting Anger

Mei Zhen and the others all gasped in shock. Over a dozen Soul Sea realm experts could almost sweep the Southern Domain!

Even the number one sect, Tianqian Sect, didn't have that many Soul Sea experts!

Not to mention that the master of Zichen Sect was a late-stage Soul Sea expert.

The Southern Domain was now under Zichen Sect's rule!

Ye Yuan frowned as well and asked, "The sect master and the others..."

Zhang Jing said, "Zichen Sect has imprisoned all the high-ranking members of the seven sects at Chongtian Peak of Tianqian Sect, guarded by three Soul Sea realm experts!"

Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief upon hearing this.

As long as they were alive, there was hope.

But Zhang Jing's next words sank their hearts to the bottom: "Zichen Sect captured a large number of prisoners this time. I heard they execute a batch every day in front of the sect masters and the supreme elders of each sect, all to force them to surrender. It's said that many high-ranking members of the six sects have already surrendered. I don't know how long the supreme elders and sect masters can hold out."

"Zichen Sect is utterly shameless! How can they commit such heinous acts? They will face divine retribution!"

Mei Zhen and the others gnashed their teeth upon hearing this.

Ye Yuan suddenly sighed and said, "It seems Zichen Sect has been planning this conspiracy for a long time! Even now, the people of the Southern Domain still don't know what's really happening!"

Everyone's expressions changed as they realized the severity of the problem!

Mei Zhen and the others who had ventured deep into the Hurricane Realm knew that Zichen Sect was paving the way for the Hurricane Realm!

By unifying the Southern Domain under the guise of one of the eight great sects, Zichen Sect would face much less resistance.

But once the Hurricane Realm invaded and all the high-ranking members of the eight sects surrendered, the Southern Domain would never be able to mount an effective resistance.

At that point, the territory of the eight sects in the Southern Domain would instantly become a base for the Hurricane Realm!

They could easily establish a foothold in the Southern Domain and launch an attack on the Northern Domain!

With the military strength of the Hurricane Realm, conquering the Northern Domain was only a matter of time.

Ye Yuan hadn't expected that in just three or four months, things had become so dire.

Zhang Jing caught the implication in Ye Yuan's words and sensed there was something he didn't know. He couldn't help asking, "Junior Brother Ye, what... has happened?"

Ye Yuan sighed softly and told Zhang Jing about the Hurricane Realm's invasion. Zhang Jing turned ashen upon hearing it.

No matter how hard he racked his brain, he couldn't have imagined that Zichen Sect was a pawn left by the Hurricane Realm in the Boundless Realm!

In that case, the Southern Domain could become the Hurricane Realm's territory at any moment!

Were they all going to become slaves of warriors from another realm?

Zhang Jing couldn't help shivering.

Just then, a large group of people surged up from the foot of the mountain. The leader was actually a strong expert at the seventh level of the Transformation Sea realm!

These people were unmistakably wearing the attire of Zichen Sect!

"Hmm? What a bunch of idiots. Sent to clean up the mess, and they got themselves killed by a bunch of trash!" the man said with a frown.

Zhang Jing's expression changed drastically at the sight of the newcomer. The strongest among them was Mei Zhen, but he was only at the third level of the Transformation Sea realm.

Facing a seventh-level Transformation Sea expert, there seemed no chance of survival for any of them!

Zhang Jing raised his sword to shield Ye Yuan and said gravely, "Junior Brother Ye, when the fight starts, I'll cover for you. You break through in the chaos! With your strength, as long as you don't go up against that seventh-level Transformation Sea expert, you should be able to escape."

Zhang Jing had seen Ye Yuan's combat prowess earlier and was utterly amazed.

But he didn't think Ye Yuan could defeat a seventh-level Transformation Sea expert; there was an entire major realm between them.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yuan said calmly, "Don't worry. I don't take such trash seriously. Elder Mei, Senior Brother Mo, take the junior disciples back. I'll deal with these scoundrels!"

Mo Yun knew he couldn't help, so he nodded and said, "Alright, Junior Brother Zhang, let's fall back and not hinder Junior Brother Ye from venting his anger."

Zhang Jing was stunned, his mind reeling.

Venting anger?

Venting anger on a seventh-level Transformation Sea expert?

A seventh-level Crystal Condensation expert venting anger on a seventh-level Transformation Sea expert?

Wasn't this joke a bit too much?

But Senior Brother Mo didn't seem like the joking type. Could it be that Ye Yuan really had that kind of strength?

Zhang Jing's mind struggled to process this.

He knew Ye Yuan was strong and could fight above his level, but crossing an entire major realm to fight an enemy seemed a bit exaggerated, didn't it?

That move earlier was indeed powerful, but it was a large-scale attack technique. Would it be effective against a seventh-level Transformation Sea expert?

Mei Zhen and Mo Yun led the others back, instantly highlighting Ye Yuan.

The seventh-level Transformation Sea expert laughed heartily at the sight. "Haha... You Cloud Nether Sect are truly pitiful, sending a seventh-level Crystal Condensation brat to die? Hey, you Transformation Sea guy, are you a turtle? Sending such a kid to his death?"

Ye Yuan curled his lips in a cold smile. "Dealing with you, I'm enough on my own. If you can so much as touch me, I'll admit defeat. Do with me as you please."

The seventh-level Transformation Sea expert was taken aback, then laughed even harder. The Zichen Sect disciples behind him also burst into laughter.

The seventh-level Transformation Sea expert turned to the crowd behind him and laughed, "Did you hear that? He said if I touch him, he loses."

"Haha... Of course we heard! I thought I misheard, but what Elder Du heard is the same as what I heard. This kid... is he an idiot?"

"I'm dying of laughter! A seventh-level Crystal Condensation tells a seventh-level Transformation Sea, 'If you touch me, I lose'... Haha... I can't hold it in..."

"Cloud Nether Sect is amazing, sending out such a joker. Is he trying to make us all die laughing? Haha... I'm dying..."

Among this group were several Transformation Sea experts of considerable strength, more than enough to handle these remnants of Cloud Nether Sect.

Ye Yuan's words had completely hit their funny bone.

Unmoved by their mockery, Ye Yuan said flatly, "I'll give you ten moves. After ten moves, you won't have another chance..."

"Haha, I, Du Yushan, have roamed the Southern Domain for so many years, and this is the first time I've met a joker like you! It'd be a pity to kill you. Keeping you as a slave to entertain us brothers wouldn't be a bad idea. But... since you killed so many of Zichen Sect's people, I have no choice but to send you to meet the King of Hell!"

With that, Du Yushan raised his hand with a smile and struck a palm strike at Ye Yuan from a distance.

The strike seemed slow but was fast, instantly gathering terrifying natural energy. Killing a seventh-level Crystal Condensation warrior was far too easy.

However... the palm wind passed right through Ye Yuan's body.

Du Yushan's smile froze on his face, and the laughter of those behind him abruptly stopped.
