Chapter Sixty: Shocked

  Ye Chen's voice was loud and shook most people's eardrums, his dominance exceeded everyone's expectations, and he actually said in front of the three family masters that he wanted to destroy them.

  Everyone present was clear that each of the three family masters was a nine-segment peak powerhouse, and Ye Chen wanted to fight one against three, fighting against three nine-segment peak powerhouses, and behind the three family masters were more than a dozen eight-segment peak powerhouses.

  This overbearing attitude was almost arrogant, making everyone doubt their own ears. Previously, one move had knocked down the Great Elder, and everyone thought that was because the Great Elder had underestimated him.

  "Hahaha, this young whippersnapper is so arrogant and ignorant, he doesn't know the height of the sky or the thickness of the earth!" Dongmu Ou also burst out laughing, his deep voice shaking the entire grand hall slightly.

  In the hall, it seemed that only Ye Chen was the protagonist. At this time, everyone's eyes were on him. No one from the Ye family spoke up, including Ye Xiao Tian and the four elders. During the clan comparison, Ye Chen had given them a surprise and shock, and now they expected Ye Chen to bring them another shock again.

  "Yè Chén, you little kid, wait till we take you down, then let's see if you're still this arrogant!" Gǒu Rì Dé sneered, his killing intent rising to an unprecedented level as he was provoked by Yè Chén, the cold light in his eyes as sharp as a knife.

  "What the...?"

  Ye Chen crossed his arms over his chest, playfully gazing at Gao Rui De, and deliberately mispronouncing his name in a way that made some people burst out laughing despite the tense atmosphere.

  "You're just a beast!" Ye Chen said calmly, "Does this beast dare to run to me, Ye Chen, and act wildly?"

  "How dare you, a little kid, insult the master of this house!?" Gou Ri De's face turned iron-blue in an instant, his two iron fists clenched with a loud crackling sound, and a powerful aura burst forth around him, with air currents surging wildly, almost visible to the naked eye.

  "Little thief, our master will flay you alive!"

  Gao De's anger was uncontrollable, and with a loud roar, he charged over with a fierce punch.

  A mighty fist shook the air, a massive energy punch print buzzed and pushed away the air, the space it traversed instantly became a vacuum. That one punch made everyone change color, like a mountain crashing down, ferocious and unmatched.

  The air flow was like a ripple in water, rushing out to both sides and being forced open by the fist wind.

  Zhao Mingfeng and Duanmu Ou also had a cruel smile on their faces, as if they had already seen the scene of Ye Chen's bones breaking and tendons snapping under this punch.

  "Quickly dodge, this punch can't be met head-on!" Ye Xiao Tian shouted in alarm.

  The four elders also changed color, "Ye Chen, this is the Gu family's Three Extremes Fist, you can't take it head-on!"

  This punch was indeed very powerful, the shockwave it created forced people on both sides who were standing closer to retreat several steps back, and in the blink of an eye, it struck Ye Chen.

  "Roar!"

  A thunderous roar echoed through the entire Ye family courtyard, the deafening bellow almost rendering everyone's ears temporarily deaf. The sudden roar stunned the people on the scene, their minds reeling in shock. Those with lower cultivation had their eardrums shattered, and scarlet blood flowed out.

  Ye Chen moved, his footsteps unfolding, his arms swinging, a majestic fist print like a mountain, the roaring fist print burst out, shattering emptiness, a solid fist print with a faint orange-gold light, with the force of a thousand kilograms, he forcefully collided upwards.

  Bang!

  Two fists met, and a visible ripple effect quickly spread out in all directions, causing everyone within several meters to retreat repeatedly, their bodies shaking.

  "Crack!"

  A cracking sound came from Gottlieb's arm, his face twisted in agony, large beads of cold sweat dripping down, and he was forced back more than ten steps. His eyes were filled with a look of shock.

  "You..." Guder stared at Ye Chen in disbelief, "Impossible, how could you possibly have such divine power? It must be the treasure on your body!"

  Ye Chen sneered, "I'm covered in treasures, want them?"

  Everyone in the hall was stunned, and with one move, Ye Chen's arm shattered Gao De's nine-segment peak with a single blow, and this time it wasn't unexpected. Those who had been resentful of Ye Chen all along finally understood a cruel fact: Ye Chen had become incredibly powerful, able to overpower even a nine-segment peak warrior in a head-on battle, far beyond what they could match.

  "Hmph, Ye Chen, the young one. I didn't think you could already wield a hint of the treasure's power. However, that thing on your body will soon change hands. A humble man is innocent, but he who holds the jade is guilty. You are doomed to die!" Du Mu Ou said in a low voice.

  The three masters thought that Ye Chen had triggered the power of a certain treasure on his body, otherwise how could he possibly withstand the strongest nine-segment peak with his fourteen-year-old age. At the age of fourteen, even if they were geniuses among geniuses, they could reach at most eight segments. In the eyes of the nine-segment peak strongmen, they were still ants that couldn't withstand a single blow.

  This way they are even more eager to seize Ye Chen's treasure, such a treasure will surely delight King Chu, and at that time their family will rapidly develop and grow under the king's favor.

  Duanmu Ou also said so, and many people in the Ye family believed that Ye Chen's strength was due to the activation of a certain treasure on his body, rather than his own ability.

  "It's just that he walked into good luck and got a treasure, otherwise, how could he be so arrogant." Some people in the Ye family thought to themselves, they were extremely jealous of Ye Chen being able to possess something that enhanced his combat strength.

  "Duanmu Ou, you've finally spoken the truth. Your three families and the City Master's Manor colluded to frame my Ye family for the theft of the spiritual medicine, all because of the treasure on me, aren't they?" Ye Chen's mouth curled up in a sneer, his expression disdainful. "Since that's the case, what's the point of you people chattering away here? Come on, let's see if your three families and the City Master's Manor combined can take down my Ye family!"

  Everyone thought Ye Chen was arrogant to the extreme, and it was nothing to resist the three major families, but he actually included the City Master's Mansion as well. To know that the nine-peak strongman of the City Master's Mansion is more than any family in Lincheng, and there are also well-trained troops, which is undoubtedly the first force in Lincheng.

  "Ye Chen, even if you have a treasure on you, what's the use? You think you can contend with our three families and the City Master's Manor? It's simply absurd, let's take action!" Duanmu Ou also gave an order, and all eight powerful warriors he brought with him charged out.

  The strong men of the Duanmu family moved, and the people of the Zhao and Gou families also moved. More than a dozen eight-stage strongmen rushed up in an instant, each releasing powerful auras, palm forces, fist winds, and knife lights intertwined, killing intent surging, wanting to behead Ye Chen.

  The strong man at the peak of the eighth stage, Ye Chen, didn't even put them in his eyes. Seeing more than ten people coming to kill him, Ye Chen stood up in the encirclement, his footsteps unfolding, his body like a swimming dragon, so fast that everyone could only see a string of white shadows. All the attacks fell down and didn't even touch the corner of his clothes, only the frantic airflow was surging.

  Bang!

  A fist radiating golden light, like a mountain, came crashing down. An eighth-rank peak expert's heart was greatly shocked, his pupils suddenly shrinking to two points, and he retreated in haste, wanting to avoid this tyrant's blow.

  However, his speed was too slow under Ye Chen's fist, and as soon as he moved, that light golden fist slammed into his chest.

  "Ah!!"

  That eight-segment peak strongman let out a shrill cry of despair, and a burst of blood mist suddenly exploded, like a blood lotus blooming, filling the entire hall with a thick bloody smell.

  Bang! The strong man was knocked flying six or seven meters by Ye Chen, heavily smashing onto the ground. A huge blood hole appeared on his chest, even his heart was shattered, and a large amount of fresh blood gushed out, bloody and cruel!

  Fast, it was too fast, from a dozen or so eight-peak strongmen surrounding and killing Ye Chen to one of the eight-peak strongmen falling in just one breath. Ye Chen's methods were ruthless, his entire body exuding a cold killing aura, the orange-gold blood energy inside him surging and churning, emitting a rumbling sound, a faint layer of orange-gold light appearing on his skin, like a war god.

  Ye Chen dodged and weaved between the encirclement of over a dozen people, evading all attacks. His iron-like fingers shot out, making a cracking sound as he crushed the throat of an Eighth-Order Peak expert, every move a fatal blow, leaving no wounds, only death.

  Most people have never seen anyone as ruthless as this since birth, it's simply that they regard human life as worthless. Those who secretly resented Ye Chen and were dissatisfied with Ye Xiao Tian in the Ye family had a chill in their hearts, their souls trembling. Ye Chen's methods gave them a huge shock, to the point where they couldn't even think of being dissatisfied anymore. People are afraid of death, especially when facing someone as ruthless as Ye Chen.

  "Fourth Master, please order the lockdown of the Ye family mansion. Since the old dogs of the three families have come today, don't think about leaving alive. Lincheng doesn't need several forces to exist, with our Ye family being enough!"

  Ye Chen said, at the same time leaning forward to a strong eight-segment peak player, with one palm smashing his skull, making a slapping sound, like hitting a watermelon, white and red blood splashing all over the ground, making some people's hearts turn over, a wave of dry vomiting.

  Three masters changed color. Ye Chen's combat power was terrifying to the point of being unbelievable, and at this time, if they continued to stay in the Ye family courtyard, they would definitely die here, only by leaving the Ye family courtyard and then surrounding and killing Ye Chen with a large number of masters.

  "We're going!" Duanmu Ou also shouted loudly, and as soon as the words fell, the whole person was like an arrow off the string, rushing towards the outside of the hall.

  At the same time as Hatanaka Hayato retreated, Kōsuke and Chōmei also moved, their speed not a bit slower than Hatanaka's. In an instant they arrived at the outer hall of the Ye family mansion.

  "The Ye family members, listen to the order! Seal off the main courtyard and leave only three family heads behind!" Ye Xiao Tian took a deep breath and shouted in his powerful voice, which echoed throughout the entire Ye family. Instantly, nearly a thousand strong men and guards sprang into action, surrounding every corner of the main courtyard, making it impossible to escape.

  The three masters retreated, leaving behind a dozen or so eight-segment peak experts who were cold and ruthless in their hearts. Knowing they would surely die, they became even more frenzied, each move a life-or-death struggle, wanting to perish together with Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen's moving figure suddenly stopped, his fists swung, and the air flow around him converged wildly, like a stream of water. At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly withdrew his fist, and his body shook slightly.

  "Hum!!"

  The air around him suddenly exploded and surged wildly in all directions.

  Bang!!

  About a dozen peak experts of the eight segments were struck by the mountain, flying upside down five or six meters away, with blood flowers bursting in mid-air, and their internal organs were all shattered into minced meat by the violent energy, leaving no signs of life.

  No need to say more, I'm asking for flowers.
