Chapter 497

Chapter 497: Chapter 496

Although the Silver Demon brothers didn’t kill Ye Tianchen, they managed to suppress him. They were wagering with the most originative power. Once their palms collided, no one dared to act rashly. This was much more dangerous and much more terrifying than some confrontations involving powerful Slaughter Skills.

Li Xin stepped out alone, the woman who had been knocked unconscious beside him earlier had disappeared. With a leisurely stroll and a sinister cold smile on his face, Li Xin spoke arrogantly, disregarding everyone present, even though some of them were peers of his grandfather. That was the extent of Li Xin’s arrogance. Unlike the descendants of other major families and powers who knew there were others beyond them, he only knew himself. He had caused significant troubles before without any consequence, which only fueled his brazenness.

"Young Master Lee, I said that Ye Tianchen couldn’t possibly be a match for Young Master Lee."

"If Ye Tianchen dares offend Young Master Lee, then he’s doomed."

"I’ve stayed here without leaving just to see how Young Master Lee would deal with that lad, Ye Tianchen..."

"Even thinking about rising up, they should have asked if our Young Master Lee agrees. Just kill all of the Ye family!"

At that moment, the men and women who saw Ye Tianchen kick Li Xin flew earlier reappeared beside Li Xin. They had originally intended to leave to avoid trouble, but when the Silver Demon brothers showed up, curiosity made them stay. Now seeing that Ye Tianchen was at a disadvantage, pressured by the Silver Demon brothers, they all stepped forward, flattering Li Xin, true to the saying of being swayed like grass on the wall, depending on the direction of the wind.

"Hmph, you’ve got some insight. I’ll let you see how I make that bastard Ye Tianchen kneel to beg for mercy," Li Xin scoffed harshly.

Bang!

A loud sound made everyone involuntarily look towards the direction of Ye Tianchen and the Silver Demon brothers. Ye Tianchen’s entire body was rapidly retreating. The Silver Demon brothers, with ferocious expressions, charged madly forward. Ye Tianchen couldn’t resist anymore. Blood was already spilling from the corner of his mouth; he felt a weight akin to four Mount Tais on his shoulders that his physical body was currently unable to withstand. The entire person was being relentlessly pushed back by the Silver Demon brothers, the impact of their power was simply too great.

Bang... Ye Tianchen’s back smashed into a large tree...

Bang... Ye Tianchen’s back then shattered a stone pillar...

Bang... Ye Tianchen’s back broke through a wall...

"Hmph, did you all see that? This is what happens to those who offend me, Li Xin. What does Ye Tianchen amount to? You dared to support him, ignorant of life and death," Li Xin laughed heartily, seeing Ye Tianchen’s defeat becoming inevitable.

"Young Master Lee, you have to treat us. After killing Ye Tianchen, how about we go for a drink?"

"Yes, Young Master Lee, let’s celebrate."

"From now on, in the Capital City, whoever dares to provoke Young Master Lee is simply seeking death!"

Surrounding men and women, seeing Ye Tianchen at a disadvantage, quickly showing signs of being vibrated to death, immediately sought favor by flattering Li Xin to watch Ye Tianchen become a laughing stock.

The Ye family had finally produced a Ye Tianchen, who they thought could revitalize the family. At his seventy-fifth birthday, Ye Yuanshan publicly declared that he would pass the leadership to his grandson, Ye Tianchen, showing great faith. If Ye Tianchen were killed today, the entire Ye family, even though alive, would never recover and would certainly become the biggest laughingstock in the history of the Capital City.

"Look everyone, this is Ye Tianchen’s fate, this is the fate of offending me, Li Xin. Whoever fucking thinks their life is too long, come provoke me, Li Xin, and try!" At this moment, seeing that Ye Tianchen was about to be killed, Li Xin completely lost his sanity, yelling at everyone present, devoid of any dignity and magnanimity.

Many looked at him with disdain, furious but daring not to speak out. Coming from the Li family, others had only contempt for this Young Master Lee, such a person was destined not to achieve great things.

"Ye Tianchen, you are strong, but you are no match for us four brothers..." The leading Silver Demon shouted as he struck Ye Tianchen with all his might.

"Join me, become one of my Thirteen Heavenly Kings!" Ye Tianchen coldly asked the Silver Demon brothers.

"Hahaha, you are a dying man, yet you want us to follow you? You don’t qualify."

"Then I have no choice but to kill you all."

Ye Tianchen’s face darkened, and at that moment, another loud bang resounded. His back slammed into the bronze statue decoration of the Ye family’s ancestral house, forcibly creating a huge dent. It was then that three Divine Swords flew out from inside Ye Tianchen’s body: one Xuanyuan, one Taie, and one Fish Intestine.

Puff!

Puff!

Puff!

Among the Ancient Divine Swords, each possessed an overwhelming might unstoppable by human force. When these three Flying Swords were simultaneously unleashed, they instantly slaughtered three of the Silver Demons. Only the leading Silver Demon, utterly horrified, withdrew his Inner Strength in his palms and tried to flee quickly. Unfortunately, once Ye Tianchen had the intent to kill, how could he possibly give someone a chance to escape? These four Silver Demon brothers were so formidable, now was the best time to kill them. Missing this chance would make it really difficult later.

Thunderous noises erupted, not from a blast of released energy, but because Ye Tianchen had instantly boosted his power to its Peak. Clenching his right hand tightly, the Power of thunder and lightning descended from the sky, directly striking onto Ye Tianchen’s right fist. At the same time, Ye Tianchen flashed forward using Divine Movement Skill unrivaled in the world, positioning himself right above the head of the lead Silver Demon, and struck down with his fist.

"Thunder Sky Fist!"

"Iron Sand Divine Palm!"

Bang!

A loud crash occurred, spreading dust several hundred meters around, stunning everyone who witnessed it. Thankfully, few there were weak-willed. Though the battle’s intensity shocked them, it was not enough to break their spirit, being from large clans and major forces as most had seen major battles before.

When the dust settled, many were astonished to see a crater at least five meters in diameter, bottomless, closely resembling a fist imprint. Clearly, this punch mark was from Ye Tianchen. He had used Thunder Sky Fist to course through the Silver Demon brothers, even the elder one, striking him dead.

The scene unfolded so abruptly and unexpectedly, especially for Li Xin, who stood frozen as if petrified. Moments before, he had been praising the Silver Demon brothers for overpowering Ye Tianchen without retaliation, spouting blood in his fervor. Yet, in the blink of an eye, Ye Tianchen had killed all the Silver Demon brothers, shattering his belief completely.

Ye Tianchen walked towards Li Xin, his body’s raging energy had already dispersed, and the three Divine Swords that shot out like meteors had returned inside him. Killing Li Xin was as simple as squashing an ant, without the need for intense superpower.

In fact, the chief merit in slaying the Silver Demon brothers lied in the Xuanyuan Sword, the Taie Sword, and the Fish Intestine Sword. Each of these Divine Swords was indomitably powerful, and the Silver Demon brothers, confident in their physical resilience, had egregiously underestimated the three Divine Swords summoned by Ye Tianchen, leading to their demise. The final palm strike that killed the leader of the Silver Demons used Ye Tianchen’s strength at the Peak of Emperor Level Realm mixed with the Essence Power of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture, ensuring a successful hit.

If the Silver Demon brothers had quickly evaded upon sighting the three Divine Swords summoned by Ye Tianchen, today’s great battle could have been avoided, and the Ye family’s old mansion might have been destroyed. The Silver Demon brothers died due to their carelessness and overconfidence, underestimating Ye Tianchen’s power.

"What... what do you want to do?" Li Xin, having snapped out of his shock and sweating profusely, foolishly asked.

"Kill you," Ye Tianchen said indifferently.

No unnecessary words, no extra questions; just two simple words, "Kill you." That was Ye Tianchen’s character and principle. He was not a murderous person, but he absolutely would not tolerate others acting presumptuously in front of him, let alone those who would harm his family. Regardless of who you were, if you crossed the line to the point where killing was justified, then you would be killed, as simple as that.

Turning around, Li Xin ran towards the gate of the Ye family’s old mansion. Everyone watched the scene, expecting Ye Tianchen to chase, but he just continued walking slowly towards Li Xin. He was like a Death God, claiming lives, and even if you fled to the ends of the earth, it would be futile. Seeing Ye Tianchen approaching, those men and women who had spoken disrespectfully and sided with Li Xin also trembled in fear, terrified by Ye Tianchen’s fierce punch. If they were in that position, they would be no different than ants—in just a flick of a finger, Ye Tianchen could kill them.

Only then did they realize that they were nothing in Ye Tianchen’s eyes; he could easily kill them if he wished, and they should not doubt his resolve, as he was a man who judged by logic, not by acquaintances.

Watching Li Xin’s panicked escape, Ye Tianchen raised his right hand, and on his index finger, a glimmer of Thunder Light started to sparkle. With just one flick, Li Xin would collapse lifelessly.

"Tianchen, let it end here. Li Xin cannot be killed!" At that moment, Ye Hong stepped in front of his son and spoke.

"It’s alright. I’ll take responsibility," Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

"Killing Li Xin would bring great trouble, and the Ye family might not withstand it. You should think it over," Fan Xingyu and Ye Yuanshan spoke as they came over, also opposed to Ye Tianchen killing Li Xin.

Ye Tianchen paused for a moment, then snapped his right hand into a gun gesture, mimicking shooting at Li Xin while still casually smiling, "If we, the Ye family, cannot even kill a single Li Xin, how can we claim to dominate Capital City?"
