Chapter 88: Annihilating the Autumn Family Patriarch

The hall fell silent.

The battle between the Autumn Family Patriarch and Dance QingXue momentarily paused.

The several Emperor Rank First Stage experts of the Autumn Family looked at the now-vanished Autumn One Day, trembling fiercely, as if an involuntary sense of desolation arose within them.

Autumn One Day, whose combat power was second only to the Autumn Family Patriarch, was killed in an instant.

Could they suppress this Ye Chen?

The answer was obviously no, and it was uncertain if even the Autumn Family Patriarch could.

Despair seemed to begin spreading.

"Keep him occupied, I'll kill him first."

The Autumn Family Patriarch's complexion was pale, intending to abandon Dance QingXue and attack Ye Chen first.

In his view, Ye Chen's terror surpassed even Dance QingXue's.

"Clang!"

Dance QingXue's sword blocked the Autumn Family Patriarch's path.

Although her realm was one stage lower than the Autumn Family Patriarch's, her combat power was no weaker than his. After a prolonged battle, victory would inevitably tilt in her favor.

Dance QingXue was a genius, overshadowed only by Ye Chen, but fighting across realms was not difficult for her.

"Do you want to kill me?"

Ye Chen looked at the Autumn Family Patriarch without a trace of fear.

The Autumn Family Patriarch remained silent, but the cold and terrifying gaze spoke volumes.

Ye Chen smiled faintly and waved his hand. "Very well, I'll give you a chance. QingXue, go kill the others. I'll deal with this old man myself."

"Dust Young Master, I can kill him," Dance QingXue responded.

Ye Chen chuckled. "Of course I know, but this old man wants to die by my hands, so let him have his wish."

"Alright." Dance QingXue no longer hesitated and turned to attack the remaining Emperor Rank experts of the Autumn Family.

She was extremely confident in Ye Chen's strength.

Could someone who dared to attack the Northern Cold Palace but couldn't even kill an Emperor Rank Third Stage be a match for them?

"Hold her back!" The few remaining Emperor Rank experts of the Autumn Family immediately confronted Dance QingXue, unwilling to engage head-on but constantly restraining her. However, even so, the situation was precarious, and it wouldn't be long before someone perished.

The Autumn Family Patriarch watched the battlefield, his face ashen.

In just one day, two Emperor Rank Second Stage experts of the Autumn Family had fallen. If they didn't end this soon, the Autumn Family would likely be destroyed.

So, he exerted his momentum to the extreme and flew towards Ye Chen.

"I must kill him!" Lin Tianping and the others' expressions were extremely ferocious.

They couldn't have dreamed that the situation would develop to such an extent. If even the Autumn Family Patriarch couldn't kill Ye Chen, their vengeance would never be fulfilled.

This was their last hope.

"Open your eyes and see how ignorant you are."

Ye Chen looked disdainfully at Lin Tianping and the others, then stomped his foot. With the Wind and Cloud Steps, he suddenly darted out like lightning, making it impossible for anyone to catch his true form.

"So fast!"

The Autumn Family Patriarch's pupils contracted, not daring to be careless. He flew up into the air, wanting to create some distance.

Flight was his greatest advantage. As long as Ye Chen couldn't get close, he was confident he could suppress him.

"Gale Palm!"

Ye Chen's voice echoed from nowhere, and suddenly, a violent wind swept through the entire hall, like a vortex forming, constantly churning.

This terrifying vortex, born of hurricanes, stirred up the clouds and roared fiercely. In an instant, it rose up and completely engulfed the flow of air, sweeping towards the Autumn Family Patriarch.

Within this terrifying vortex, it seemed to contain boundless violent power, layer upon layer accumulating like waves, as if it wanted to devour the Autumn Family Patriarch.

"Under the Emperor Rank, to be able to erupt with such terrifying killing intent, this child is too terrifying."

The Autumn Family Patriarch's heart trembled. He had already reached the limit of his flight, but he didn't expect Ye Chen's killing intent to still reach him. How could this be possible under the Emperor Rank?

Before he could be shocked, he crazily formed hand seals, and countless seals spread out, condensing into one in front of him, like a sky curtain or a mountain, pressing down towards Ye Chen.

"Boom!"

A terrifying roar echoed madly. The Autumn Family Patriarch felt a terrifying impact rapidly approaching, directly sending his body flying. The top of the hall was instantly shattered.

Many martial artists in the hall quickly retreated, fearing being buried by the collapsing hall.

"Kill!"

Ye Chen's figure emerged from the vortex, his body seemingly ascending with the terrifying vortex, and the starlight suddenly shimmered. Within the stormy vortex, an astonishing sword intent emanated, sweeping across the heavens and earth.

Only the sound of swords vibrating resonated between heaven and earth.

"How is this possible!"

The Autumn Family Patriarch's expression changed drastically, looking extremely ugly.

He had already reached his limit in flight, but Ye Chen's killing intent was still able to engulf him. How could this be possible under the Emperor Rank?

Before he could be shocked, he frantically formed hand seals, and countless seals spread out, condensing into one in front of him, like a sky curtain or a mountain, pressing down towards Ye Chen.

"Plop plop plop!"

The Starlight Infinite Sword Qi, accompanied by the storm vortex, crushed down, continuously shattering the Autumn Family Patriarch's palm seals.

Only to see Ye Chen pointing his finger in mid-air, the storm once again rolled over, as if a dazzling starry giant sword, illuminating the nine heavens, roared out.

A sword light so cold, the weather suddenly changed, everything the sword qi passed through was destroyed, the Autumn Family Patriarch's palm seals were directly pierced through.

"Kill!"

A cold voice spat out from Ye Chen's mouth, sword light shining, enveloping the Autumn Family Patriarch.

"No, I surrender, spare my life."

The Autumn Family Patriarch felt the terrifying onslaught of death approaching, without hesitation, he begged for mercy, frantically retreating, wanting to avoid the killing blow. However, the sword qi storm covered the sky and obscured the sun, completely trapping that space.

The sharp and terrifying sword qi continuously tore through his body, the fierce and violent seals pressing down like mountains.

"I told you, the Autumn Family will perish, and you will undoubtedly die."

Ye Chen showed no mercy, the sword light and seals pressing down fiercely, making the Autumn Family Patriarch's face even more pale with terror.

"No..."

The Autumn Family Patriarch dared to shout, but the sword qi and seals submerged everything.

His heart was pierced through, and his whole body fell like a falling star from the sky.

The Autumn Family Patriarch, fell!

The Lord of the Desolate City, at the Emperor Rank Third Stage, was killed by a True Martial Eighth Stage martial artist.

It's probably unbelievable when spoken out, but it happened.

"How could this..."

The people of the Autumn Family watched this scene, their bodies trembling.

How could this be the outcome.

Their Patriarch was actually killed by a True Martial Eighth Stage martial artist, how could this be true?

At this moment, the fear of death crazily pervaded their hearts.

"This..."

Lin Tianping and the others were also shocked, their faces ashen.

The Autumn Family Patriarch couldn't even kill Ye Chen, but instead died by his hands.

Their greatest reliance was completely gone.

They thought that Ye Chen's provocation of the Autumn Family was seeking death, and going to the Autumn Family today was seeking a dead end.

But the scene before them was so ironic.

"The fate of the Autumn Family, I will let you witness with your own eyes."

Ye Chen's words seemed to echo in their ears, piercingly harsh.
