Chapter 690: Wait for Me in the Divine Realm!

Ye Yuan showed little reaction to Zhou Yan's threat.

With a thought, he released Ye Qing.

"Ye Qing, Li'er needs some Qingling Rongxin Liquid," Ye Yuan said to Ye Qing.

"Oh, take it."

Ye Qing generously produced some Qingling Rongxin Liquid, but became very wary of Zhou Yan, whose depth he could not gauge.

Ye Yuan took the liquid and went straight to Yue Mengli, saying, "Thank you for saving my life, but... I promise you, this is the last time! Open your mouth."

Yue Mengli glanced at Ye Yuan and obediently opened her mouth.

Without another word, Ye Yuan poured the liquid into her mouth.

Once the Qingling Rongxin Liquid entered her stomach, the soul that had been torn earlier felt much more comfortable, and her complexion became rosy.

Throughout, Ye Yuan remained calm.

But Yue Mengli knew that Zhou Yan's actions had thoroughly enraged Ye Yuan.

Perhaps in Zhou Yan's eyes, Ye Yuan was just a native. But Yue Mengli knew he possessed talent even more extraordinary than the prodigies of the Divine Realm.

Today's setback would only make Ye Yuan rise faster.

Zhou Yan watched all this without intervening.

He was no fool; after Yue Mengli used the power of the Moonlight Heavenly Eye, she seemed completely drained, her face turning very pale.

Now, after drinking the liquid Ye Yuan brought, her complexion improved immediately.

It seemed Yue Mengli really did have some ailment that prevented her from using the Moonlight Heavenly Eye's power.

At this moment, he began to believe her words somewhat.

"Kid, I'm talking to you. Didn't you hear me?" Ye Yuan's disregard infuriated Zhou Yan.

In his view, Ye Yuan should be terrified, even kneeling and begging for mercy.

But Ye Yuan's reaction was too calm—so calm that it inexplicably made Zhou Yan uneasy!

This feeling was too strange.

Ye Yuan still ignored Zhou Yan, instead turning to Ye Qing: "Ye Qing, from today on, you and Li'er will go to the Divine Realm together! Remember, you must stay by her side at all times!"

Ye Qing was naive about worldly matters, but he too sensed the strange atmosphere.

This young man was too powerful!

He had already evolved to the seventh stage, yet he still felt the other was unfathomable.

Seeing Ye Yuan's seriousness, Ye Qing nodded: "Don't worry, I'll do what I promised!"

Ye Yuan nodded. Though they hadn't known each other long, he trusted Ye Qing.

Then, Ye Yuan suddenly turned to Zhou Yan and said, "Put away your arrogance! If you want an all-out war between the Yue and Zhou clans, go ahead and kill me now!"

Zhou Yan's expression changed, and he sneered, "Ridiculous native! Do you think a few words can scare me?"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "Li'er not only possesses the Moonlight Heavenly Eye constitution but also the Innate War Soul constitution! If you kill me, you cut off the Yue clan's hope of rising! Do you think the Yue clan will wage an all-out war against the Zhou clan?"

"What Innate War Soul constitution? Nonsense!"

Even in the Divine Realm, only a very few knew of the Innate War Soul constitution.

And that very few obviously did not include Zhou Yan.

Ye Yuan sneered, "Ignorant! Go back and ask Zhou Jia what the Innate War Soul constitution is! That old stick-in-the-mud Quan Xingzi may be pedantic, but he can recognize an Innate War Soul constitution!"

A terrifying aura rippled out; before Zhou Yan even moved, the space began to warp!

"How dare a native like you utter my father's name!" Zhou Yan said through gritted teeth.

Ye Yuan felt he was suffocating, but his face remained indifferent as he said calmly, "Names are meant to be called. If I don't call him Zhou Jia, what should I call him? If you have the guts, kill me now. Otherwise... put away your act!"

Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Yue Mengli's heart nearly leaped out of her chest.

She never expected Ye Yuan to provoke Zhou Yan like this.

If Zhou Yan truly lost his temper, even she at her peak couldn't stop him.

Ye Yuan's pride was even greater than she had anticipated!

Facing a peerless expert like Zhou Yan, Yue Mengli thought Ye Yuan would restrain himself and bide his time.

Who would have thought Ye Yuan had no intention of holding back and chose to confront him head-on!

Zhou Yan's expression darkened, and the entire space twisted under his aura.

He could not tolerate a native being so insolent before him.

But if what Ye Yuan said was true, he really couldn't afford an all-out war between the two clans.

The major forces in the Divine Realm checked each other, leaving no room for error.

Even his father, Zhou Jia, walked on thin ice.

Suddenly, Zhou Yan retracted his aura and said coldly to Ye Yuan, "For Li'er's sake, I'll spare your miserable life today! When we return to the Divine Realm, we'll see if what you said is true. Then you won't escape even if you sprout wings!"

With that, Zhou Yan suddenly activated the Scorching Sun Flame Heart Pupil!

"Boom!"

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

"Ye Yuan!" Yue Mengli and Ye Qing cried out in unison.

"Don't worry, he won't die. I've just planted a mark of the Scorching Sun Flame Heart Pupil on him. If someone else can cure your ailment, then he has no reason to exist in this world. Li'er, it's time to go," Zhou Yan said coldly.

With that, Zhou Yan slashed his hand through the air, directly tearing open the space to reveal a gate.

Yue Mengli worried about Ye Yuan's safety, but Zhou Yan gave her no time to linger.

Ye Yuan stood up, clutching his chest, and gasped, "Don't worry, I won't die. Wait for me in the Divine Realm!"

Yue Mengli, tears streaming down her face, nodded and followed Zhou Yan into the spatial passage.

Ye Qing looked at Ye Yuan with concern and said solemnly, "Ye Yuan, take care!"

After the three entered the passage, the gate disappeared as if Zhou Yan had never been there. Ye Yuan stared at the restored space, silent for a long time.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Master, you... you're injured!"

"Who could have wounded the master so severely?"

Chu Shi and the others, sensing some disturbance, arrived belatedly.

Seeing Ye Yuan severely injured, they were greatly alarmed.

They now knew Ye Yuan's strength; whoever could injure him so badly with so little commotion must be incredibly powerful.

Struck repeatedly by the Scorching Sun Flame Heart Pupil, Ye Yuan was now weak and breathless.

"It's... nothing. Help me to the secret chamber! Delay the army's departure by three days!"
