Chapter 614: Cat Playing Mouse?

Purple electric serpents danced wildly in the air, the immense energy pressure suffocating everyone, including Ye Yuan himself.

The power of this Void Thunderburst Talisman was somewhat beyond his imagination.

Lan Shun barely struggled before being swallowed by the frenzied electric serpents.

The attacks of two Divine Travel realm experts were thus annihilated by the electric serpents, without even stirring a ripple.

The corner of Shangguan Yunrong's mouth twitched involuntarily, clearly startled by the scene before him.

If he and Lan Shun had switched places just now, he would have been the one charred to a crisp!

The Void Thunderburst Talisman truly lived up to its reputation!

Just then, the Red Light City army, which had already fled far away, was also alarmed.

"Hmm? This... what's happening? Such a powerful fluctuation!" Chu Shi's expression changed as he spoke.

Chu Shi and the others exchanged glances and quickly guessed the answer.

Such a powerful fluctuation was certainly not caused by a Soul Sea realm expert; it could only be... Divine Travel realm!

"A Divine Travel realm expert! A Divine Travel realm expert must have arrived! Young Master Ye... he..." Zhu Changzhi's voice choked with emotion.

Liu Hong and the other three also looked at each other, all seeing deep worry in each other's eyes.

"City Lord Su, take the others and leave. The four of us will go back to check the situation!" Qin Yan said in a deep voice.

"No! If anyone goes back, it should be me! You all are still weak and have no power to resist against a Divine Travel realm expert. At least I am at the peak of Soul Sea ninth level, with some chance of escape. I'll go back!" Su Hu directly refused.

"We don't care about others, but the three of us must go back! Young Master Ye has given us a new lease on life. Even if we die, we must go back!" Zhu Changzhi said resolutely.

"I'm going back too!"

"I'm also going back!"

...

For a moment, the high-ranking members of the Red Light City army were in a heated argument, each vying to go back.

"Alright, stop arguing! Ding Qi, lead the others north to Pingyang City and report that a Divine Travel realm expert from the Hurricane Realm has entered the battle, so the alliance can prepare early! City Lord, four young masters, since everyone is concerned about Young Master Ye's safety, how about we all go back together?"

At this moment, Chu Shi was calm and composed, exuding the demeanor of a commander, a stark contrast to his usual roguish appearance.

Although Su Hu had the highest cultivation among them, Chu Shi had subtly become the one whose words carried the most weight.

"Alright, since that's the case, let's all go back together!" Su Hu nodded.

Qin Yan also nodded in agreement.

...

"I had only heard of the Void Thunderburst Talisman by name, never expecting its power to be so terrifying! Truly unexpected that you still have such a deadly weapon! It's fortunate that we came together this time, or we really wouldn't have been able to do anything to you!" Shangguan Yunrong looked at Ye Yuan and said calmly.

As he expected, Ye Yuan had been drained of his primal energy by the Void Thunderburst Talisman and was now extremely weak.

In Shangguan Yunrong's eyes, Ye Yuan was already a lamb to the slaughter.

What could a martial artist do without primal energy?

He could see that Ye Yuan was secretly recovering his primal energy, and at a very fast pace, but he was in no hurry.

No matter how fast Ye Yuan recovered, he couldn't return to his peak state in a short time.

During this process, he had ample time to kill Ye Yuan.

As long as Ye Yuan couldn't use the Void Thunderburst Talisman again, what did it matter even if he fully recovered his primal energy?

Shangguan Yunrong was a super expert at Divine Travel third level; even if Ye Yuan recovered his strength, how could he possibly be a match?

"Hey, do you think... you can do anything to me now?" Ye Yuan said breathlessly.

But to Shangguan Yunrong, these words were just a dying man's last boast.

In battle, the greatest taboo for a martial artist is to exhaust all primal energy, leaving no means of self-preservation.

Without the support of primal energy, even the most powerful martial skills are useless.

"Heh, don't waste your efforts. Do you think I'll give you a chance to recover primal energy?" As Shangguan Yunrong spoke, he suddenly struck out with his palm.

This palm was very casual, not intended to kill Ye Yuan.

"Bang!"

Ye Yuan was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The primal energy he had just gathered was dispersed by this palm.

Shangguan Yunrong came before Ye Yuan and said with a faint smile, "Do you know how a cat catches a mouse? When they catch a mouse, they let it go, catch it again, let it go again, repeating until the mouse is exhausted. I know you're unwilling, but right now... you're just a mouse I'm toying with."

With that, Shangguan Yunrong struck another palm, sending Ye Yuan flying again.

Ye Yuan stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Shangguan Yunrong, and said with a bitter smile, "It seems your Shangguan family is full of psychopaths! Don't you feel humiliated that you, a dignified Divine Travel realm expert, were threatened by a mere Sea Transformation realm junior like me? So now you're trying to find some psychological balance?"

Shangguan Yunrong's expression froze, and he struck another palm!

Ye Yuan had hit a nerve, and he flew into a rage out of humiliation.

As Ye Yuan had guessed, he had indeed been extremely furious just now. The feeling of having his life in someone else's hands was very unpleasant.

Even though he had kept a considerable distance from Ye Yuan, if Ye Yuan had actually thrown the Void Thunderburst Talisman at him, he wouldn't have dared to say he could escape unscathed.

The Void Thunderburst Talisman was too powerful!

Under the Void Thunderburst Talisman, Lan Shun hadn't even left behind ashes!

If Ye Yuan hadn't been determined to ensure killing one Divine Travel realm expert, Shangguan Yunrong would have been severely injured at best.

So when Ye Yuan's primal energy was depleted, he wasn't in a hurry to kill him but wanted to vent his resentment.

"So what if it's true? You can't use the Void Thunderburst Talisman now. I want to toy with you to death; what can you do about it?" Shangguan Yunrong suddenly became ferocious.

As he spoke, Shangguan Yunrong struck another palm, tirelessly playing this game.

"Bang!"

Ye Yuan was sent flying again, covered in blood, looking utterly miserable.

Seeing Ye Yuan like this, Shangguan Yunrong felt great satisfaction!

"Do you think you're a genius, that no one in this world can match you? Don't you know that slaughtering a genius is a very fulfilling thing? Hahaha... Beg me! Beg me to spare you! Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll really let you live!" Shangguan Yunrong said, almost mad.

With that, Shangguan Yunrong raised his hand for another palm.

But just then, he suddenly saw Ye Yuan smiling at him.

That smile seemed to mock his ignorance and misery.

Shangguan Yunrong's expression changed, every hair on his body standing on end, as an extremely dangerous feeling surged over him.
