All of my disciples possess the potential to become Great Emperors.
Chapter 58: Battling the Experts of the Four Domains' Martial Rankings!
Clearly, the mastermind behind all this was the Sunset Dynasty.
What Ye Qiubai had not expected, however, was that the Sunset Dynasty had actually extended its reach into the Southern Region...
And among those enshrinees was Fan Jingyao, ranked 27th on the Four Regions Martial Rankings!
Among them, the Sixth Prince of the Tianyuan Dynasty smiled and said, "Ye Qiubai, although you and I have no personal grudge, perhaps you should take your conflict with the Sunset Dynasty and resolve it with them instead?"
The strength of the Sunset Dynasty was such that even the Tianyuan Dynasty did not wish to offend it.
They were even willing to wag their tails in supplication.
Ye Qiubai watched this scene coldly. Clearly, someone had leaked the information.
Who was it?
It didn't require much thought.
It had to be the Great Elder.
Of everyone present, only he had sufficient motive.
But that no longer mattered; they were already mortal enemies.
It was a matter of life or death!
Ye Qiubai watched coldly as he drew the Dark Demon from his storage ring!
His sword intent began to surge!
Facing such a lineup, Ye Qiubai did not dare to hold anything back!
Sensing this sword intent, Fan Jingyao remarked with emotion, "No wonder His Highness the First Prince is so wary of him. Such talent is truly terrifying."
To have reached the level of a Great Swordmaster at such a young age, and to have reached the Sea of Qi Realm!
With such talent, it could be said that as long as he did not perish, he would surely stand at the pinnacle of this continent one day!
"I suppose only those monsters from the Central Region could rival him..."
Ye Qiubai said indifferently, "Are you afraid of the Sunset Dynasty, yet not afraid of my revenge?"
Vengeance for vengeance, and tenfold repayment for kindness!
This was Ye Qiubai's code of conduct.
Given the current attitude of the Tianyuan Dynasty, one day, Ye Qiubai would also set foot in the imperial palace of the Tianyuan Dynasty!
The Sixth Prince smiled and shook his head, saying, "While your words are very intimidating, and you indeed have the right to say them, however..."
At this point, a cold light flashed in the Sixth Prince's eyes. His expression suddenly turned frigid, and though his tone was low, his voice carried loudly: "What is there to fear from a genius who is destined to die halfway through?"
Ye Qiubai nodded and said no more.
There was no use in saying too much.
Since things had reached this point, it was naturally a fight to the death.
That overwhelming demonic aura transformed into a demonic sword intent, sweeping toward the Sixth Prince!
It was as sharp as a keen blade!
Unstoppable and relentless!
The Sixth Prince's cultivation was not particularly outstanding; seeing this, his expression shifted slightly.
At that moment, another enshrinee of the Sunset Dynasty stepped forward, waving a hand to block the sword intent.
"Today, there is no way for you to escape."
"And if you intend to stall for time, that is also impossible. News of this place has been blocked; the Hidden Dao Academy will be unable to receive any information."
Ye Qiubai recognized this person.
It was Tian Pin, ranked 29th on the Four Regions Martial Rankings!
His weapon was a massive double-edged axe!
In an instant, Tian Pin's body vanished from his spot and appeared directly beside Ye Qiubai!
He reached out, intending to seize Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai retreated with his footsteps.
However, the opponent was a powerhouse of the Qianyuan Realm, giving Ye Qiubai a sense of helplessness!
Just as Tian Pin's hand landed on Ye Qiubai's shoulder!
A flash of silver light streaked past!
Tian Pin's eyes widened in shock. He hurriedly retreated, but it was too late; two of his fingers were instantly severed!
"Who?!"
At that moment, the Ye Family Ancestor stood before Ye Qiubai!
Ye Qiubai's face was also filled with astonishment.
He had not expected the Ancestor to step forward to help him at this moment!
However, the Ancestor's strength had clearly not yet reached the Qianyuan Realm—he was only at the peak of the Water Overflow Realm—yet he was able to wound a Qianyuan Realm powerhouse?
How was this possible?
The Ancestor's face was currently somewhat pale.
Seeing this, Tian Pin said with a grim expression, "Did you use a secret technique?"
The Ancestor said indifferently, "I merely borrowed the power of the ancestral lineage."
As one of the four great families, the Ye Family naturally had trump cards!
Now, by borrowing the power of the ancestral lineage, the Ye Family Ancestor could reach the Qianyuan Realm for a short period!
Watching this scene, a flash of venomous resentment crossed the Great Elder's eyes!
Ever since Ye Qiubai escaped, he had displayed astonishing talent.
The Ancestor had already begun to lean toward Ye Qiubai!
The Ye Family Ancestor naturally understood that providing help in times of need is more valuable than adding flowers to a bouquet.
Since he had already chosen to stand on Ye Qiubai's side, he would gamble on him.
If successful, the Ye Family might reach heights that even the founding ancestor had never achieved!
Of course, failure would come with corresponding risks.
Extermination.
Watching this, the Sixth Prince asked in a heavy voice, "Is the Senior not afraid of the Ye Family being wiped out?"
The Ancestor snorted coldly and said, "Since I have already done it, there is no need for further talk."
Fan Jingyao also nodded and said, "In that case, let the Ye Family be erased from the Southern Region."
With that, Fan Jingyao charged toward the Ye Family Ancestor!
The Ancestor's eyes narrowed!
Although he had temporarily gained the strength of the Qianyuan Realm, in reality, there was still a gap between him and the powerhouses on the Four Regions Martial Rankings!
The previous severing of Tian Pin's fingers was only due to the element of surprise.
Now, Fan Jingyao's assault left the Ancestor struggling to keep up!
Ye Qiubai's expression darkened as he watched this.
The area was shielded by a barrier, meaning the communication jade slips provided by the Hidden Dao Academy could not transmit news from this location.
At this time, the Sixth Prince also waved his hand, and the Imperial Guards were fully deployed!
Though their strength was not as terrifying as the Asura Iron Cavalry, they were still not to be underestimated.
Tian Pin spoke up at this moment, "Ye Qiubai, give up your resistance. You have no chance of winning."
Ye Qiubai said nothing. The sword held in his hand, along with the slowly rising battle intent, represented his attitude!
Tian Pin was momentarily stunned, then thought to himself with a sense of regret.
Even when facing someone like him from the Four Regions Martial Rankings, in such a desperate situation, this boy still possessed battle intent without a hint of cowardice.
With such courage and talent, as long as he did not perish, his name would be known throughout the entire continent!
It was a pity he was not one of their own.
With that thought, Tian Pin made his move.
Holding his double-edged axe, he kicked off the air!
A series of sonic booms echoed through the air as Tian Pin's figure lunged violently toward Ye Qiubai!
Then, the massive axe swung toward Ye Qiubai with a roar!
The space itself seemed to shatter wherever the axe blade passed!
Before the double-edged axe could even land on Ye Qiubai, he already felt an unstoppable force!
This was the absolute suppression of realms!
The gap between the Qianyuan Realm and the Sea of Qi Realm was not like the gap between the Purple Mansion Realm and the Sea of Qi Realm.
The chasm between them was immense!
It was not something that could be crossed by human effort alone!
Furthermore, Tian Pin was no ordinary Qianyuan Realm practitioner.
He was a powerhouse on the Four Regions Martial Rankings!
There was no fear in Ye Qiubai's heart at this moment.
He wanted to see exactly how large the gap was between himself and a powerhouse of the Four Regions Martial Rankings!
He swung the Dark Demon through the air!
Demonic aura surged, and sword intent crisscrossed!
Nine Swords of the Heavenly Demon, Sixth Sword!
