Chapter 54: Defeating the Enemy with a Flick of the Finger

Ye Chen, dressed in green, walked steadily with a calm demeanor, as if he were not here to engage in a life-and-death battle but merely passing through.

In the viewing stands, Liangjiang Lang suddenly stood up, his sharp gaze directly falling on Ye Chen as if he wanted to pierce and destroy him!

Feeling Liangjiang Lang's coldness, Ye Chen looked up, a hint of disdain curling his lips into a contemptuous smile.

He approached Liangjiang Mo's viewing stand, and the latter stood up, followed closely by many forces behind him.

"The Third Prince said they are not his men. But now that Ye Chen and his son have come to him, what does that mean?" The crowd whispered, unaware that when Ye Chen arrived, the Third Prince stood up with a look full of respect.

Was this the attitude a master should have towards a servant?

"I didn't expect you to dare to come. Today, I will have your blood spilled on the ground." Seeing Ye Chen ignoring him, Liangjiang Lang's expression became even darker, and the killing intent became almost tangible, causing the temperature around him to drop, making people shiver involuntarily.

"Seeking death," Liang Qianchong sighed, looking at Ye Chen.

He had once bestowed glory but was now refused. Today, there was only death.

People from Liangjiang Hong's camp watched Ye Chen and his companions with great interest, their eyes filled with sneers.

"Brother Ye." Ignoring the thoughts of others, Liangjiang Mo stared at Ye Chen. Today, he had bet everything on Ye Chen.

"If there's something you must do, the empire is yours to control," Ye Chen said calmly.

He naturally knew what Liangjiang Mo wanted, and he could grant it. The condition was to protect Ye Shuixian and the others safely. After all, during the chaos of battle, he couldn't guarantee their safety, especially with the people from the Northern Cold Palace present. He and Wu Qingxue would have to fight them.

Once the battle started, it would be difficult to distract himself to take care of Ye Shuixian.

"Brother Ye, rest assured. Before I fall, Princess Shuixian will not fall." Liangjiang Mo stated solemnly.

"I'm not a princess," Ye Shuixian responded coldly.

"I know, but when I say princess, I mean the princess I recognize. You will always be the princess of the Xuantian Empire," Liangjiang Mo smiled.

He was very clever, knowing that Ye Chen was not someone he could win over. Therefore, he indirectly showed goodwill towards Ye Chen by using Ye Shuixian as a connection. If he took control of the empire, Ye Shuixian would forever be a princess, and Ye Chen would acknowledge him more.

"Protect the princess."

With Liangjiang Mo's order, many True Martial Realm experts behind him instantly formed a circle, enclosing them layer by layer, solid as a rock, seemingly invincible.

He and Ouyang Qingyun stood by Ye Shuixian's side, as if swearing to protect her at all costs.

"Liangjiang Mo, are you going to walk further down the path of seeking death?" Liang Qianlang's voice was cold and stern.

He didn't hear Liangjiang Mo and Ye Chen's conversation. He only saw Liangjiang Mo ordering to protect Ye Shuixian, mistakenly thinking that Liangjiang Mo intended to forcibly hold onto Ye Shuixian to show goodwill to the Northern Cold Palace.

"You will all be shocked," Liangjiang Mo looked up at Liang Qianlang, a cold smile playing at the corner of his mouth, with a deep and meaningful look.

Today, who will have the last laugh? Let's wait and see.

"Humph, take them down one by one," Liang Qianlang snorted, giving the order to kill Liangjiang Mo.

"Ye Chen, come out and face your death," Ye Long stomped his foot, leaping off the platform onto the battlefield. His aura began to emanate, sharp as a beast's, fixated on Ye Chen as if he were prey.

"Ye Feng, you will die too," Ye Lingtian also jumped onto the battlefield, his cold gaze locked onto Ye Feng.

He intended to end it quickly!

Ye Chen calmly looked at the opponents, then glanced at Ye Feng, saying, "Father, do what you need to do."

Ye Feng nodded heavily, stepping towards the battlefield.

Ye Chen also stepped forward, heading towards the battlefield.

As they watched Ye Chen approach step by step, Ye Long's pupils contracted into slits, his expression chilling, "Today will be your end. I will make you understand how wrong your choices are."

"Let's get this over with. I'm short on time," Ye Chen calmly spoke, his eyes fixed on Ye Long, whom he had never taken seriously. There were still many other trash waiting behind him.

"Seeking death!"

Ye Long's expression turned ferocious, his killing intent palpable, and his figure seemed to disappear in an instant. A terrifying gust of wind swept across the battlefield, accompanied by a sharp sword intent.

"So fast, so terrifying. Ye Chen might not even be able to withstand a single move," the crowd exclaimed in shock, feeling the terrifying sword intent, fearing that even a True Martial Second Layer wouldn't be able to resist it.

How could Ye Chen resist it?

Many people were waiting to see Ye Chen fall with just one move.

Only Ye Shuixian, Wu Qingxue, Liangjiang Mo, Ouyang Qingyun, and others remained calm. They knew how strong Ye Chen was, and Ye Long was just seeking death.

"Shadowless Sword, Die!"

Ye Long quickly reached Ye Chen, his sharp aura overwhelming, his sword intent seemingly invisible. In an instant, it enveloped Ye Chen.

That terrifying sword intent seemed to want to directly destroy Ye Chen, to make him vanish into thin air.

However, when those sword qi reached Ye Chen, there seemed to be an invisible force deterring them. There was a sound of shattering like thunder, and Ye Long's sword qi was shattered successively, unable to get close to Ye Chen, let alone kill him.

"This..."

Everyone was shocked. Faced with Ye Long's terrifying attack, Ye Chen remained unmoved, easily resolving the sharp sword qi with just his physical body. His flesh was so strong!

"How is this possible?!" Ye Long's pupils shrank.

He knew better than anyone how strong this sword was. Even a True Martial Third Layer would have difficulty blocking it, let alone easily resolving it like this, with just the physical body.

"Ye Chen, I will kill you!"

Ye Long roared, his expression ferocious to the extreme. With his long sword in hand, he swung it, and everyone saw streaks of sword light flashing like lightning, difficult to catch, as if they were invisible.

"Die!"

The sword qi tore through the space, sharp and violent, once again approaching Ye Chen.

This time, the sword aura was much stronger, as if it were at the level of a True Martial Fourth Layer, too terrifying for anyone to directly confront.

However, what shocked everyone was that Ye Chen showed no intention of retreating

. He calmly reached out his hand, shook his head, and sighed, "I gave you three months, and you only improved this much. It's disappointing."

"Boom!"

A stream of light burst from Ye Chen's fingertips, directly shattering the terrifying sword qi with an unstoppable momentum, destroying everything, and landing directly on Ye Long.

The sound of explosion echoed, and Ye Long's armor shattered, his whole body flying out like a kite with a broken string, crashing to the ground and spitting out blood.

In an instant, everyone's complexion changed.

In the viewing stands, many people stood up in shock, unable to believe what they were seeing.
