In the middle of the night, loud shouts from the guards outside echoed, "That kid, where do you think you're going? Come out, I know you're hiding in here!"
Ye Yang jolted awake, his eyes snapping open. The Fire God Power within him surged, extending his senses like a spider's web, faintly detecting a powerful force that was fleeting!
Sure enough, someone was coming!
He rolled out of bed and quickly dressed. Grabbing the Iron Sword he had forged himself from the bedside, he pushed the door open. He saw several guards holding Wooden Blades and lanterns, respectfully asking, "Young Master, have you seen a Black-Clad Youth?"
Ye Yang frowned slightly. "No."
"Oh, then we won't disturb your rest any longer!"
The guards from the Guardhouse immediately went off to search elsewhere. Ye Yang found himself unable to sleep; he had just sensed that powerful force disappearing toward the back of the hall, in the direction of the ancestral hall. Could there be something happening there?
With Blade in hand, Ye Yang glided over the wall like a falling leaf. After a few leaps, he arrived in front of the ancestral hall. Clearly, after cultivating the Fire God Power, Ye Yang's abilities had greatly increased; even he was surprised by his own speed.
"Whoosh!"
A shadow flashed past and entered the ancestral hall.
Ye Yang immediately called out, "Who’s there? Stand still!"
But the shadow did not stop; it dashed straight into the ancestral hall.
Just as Ye Yang leaped into the ancestral hall, the shadow suddenly turned around and unleashed a punch. A blood-red aura enveloped its fist, and a powerful pressure nearly suffocated Ye Yang!
"Bang!"
A heavy punch failed to hit Ye Yang, but it was repelled halfway as a blazing flame Barrier Wall had already formed in front of him.
The Black-Clad Youth was taken aback: "Wow? Such a fast Barrier Wall!"
After missing his strike, the masked Black-Clad Youth immediately gathered all his True Qi, spreading his arms wide. His body was as robust as a mountain, with a powerful build. A series of light blue True Qi quickly gathered on his fists, and he roared, "Kid, how about this move?!"
"Ha! Xingtian's Three Wrath!"
In the blink of an eye, the Black-Clad Youth unleashed three consecutive punches, each more ferocious than the last, each punch accompanied by crimson energy. An overwhelming aura surged through the shrine!
Ye Yang opened one hand, channeling Fire God Power into his fists, and similarly launched three rapid punches in response!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The two iron fists collided, the sound echoing like thunder. The Black-Clad Youth remained unscathed and composed, while Ye Yang was sent flying back by the immense force!
"Boom!"
He crashed violently into the shrine's statue, shattering it into pieces. Ye Yang struggled to stand up from the ruins of the statue.
The Black-Clad Youth approached directly and shouted, "Ye Family's useless young master, I didn't expect you to have some strength. Hmph, but you're still far from enough. Let me send you on your way!"
"Drink!"
The Black-Clad Youth launched another punch directly at him.
Ye Yang, however, smiled. Under the moonlight, his handsome face was incredibly charming, and no one would expect that this young man was Ye Batian, the good-for-nothing young master of the Ye Family.
"Bang!"
Ye Yang suddenly crouched down and heavily struck the opponent's abdomen with a punch infused with Fire God Power. He had already seen clearly that although the Black-Clad Youth's strength was fierce, his speed was evidently much slower. As long as he relied on speed to counter speed instead of clashing head-on, his chances of winning would definitely not be low.
"Puff..."
The Black-Clad Youth unexpectedly took a heavy punch and fell to the ground. When he raised his head, a Sharp Sword gleaming with Cold Light was already pressed against his neck.
Ye Yang reached out to remove the opponent's mask and discovered that he was a rugged-looking young man, around 20 years old. With sword-like eyebrows and tiger-like eyes, he glared at Ye Yang with resentment and unwillingness.
"Who are you?" Ye Yang asked.
"Zhang Tianhe, from Liang City. So what?!" Zhang Tianhe replied calmly.
Ye Yang nodded. "What are you doing at the Ye Family?"
"To take a Divine Weapon!"
“Divine Weapon?”
Ye Yang couldn't help but laugh, “You must be talking about Battle Axe Radiance, right?”
Zhang Tianhe was taken aback, “So you already know!”
“What do you want Radiant Sun for?” Ye Yang said coldly, “Speak quickly!”
Zhang Tianhe's eyes were filled with anger as he suppressed his emotions and nearly shouted, “To kill!”
“Kill whom?”
Ye Yang was somewhat surprised. This young man was stealing the divine weapon Radiant Sun just to kill? That meant the person he wanted to kill must have a deep-seated grudge against him.
Zhang Tianhe said in a deep voice, “Why are you asking so much? I'm not your opponent; just kill me if you want!”
“Swish!”
With the sound of wind, Ye Yang retracted Sharp Sword and said, “I only ask you, who do you want to kill?”
Zhang Tianhe replied in astonishment, “Seven Tyrants of Liang City.”
“Oh, Seven Tyrants of Liang City?”
"Yes!" Zhang Tianhe gritted his teeth, his eyes practically blazing with anger as he said in a low voice, "These seven villains have wreaked havoc in the region. Just two days ago, they bloodily slaughtered the Wang family in Xu Family Town, killing seventeen people, including the Royal Daughter who was only Seventeen Years Old. They were so ruthlessly mistreated by the Seven Overlords!"
Ye Yang felt a surge of anger upon hearing this. "Is there no law anymore?"
Zhang Tianhe sneered, "Law? The Qin Emperor is tyrannical and has forced the people of Dazeyang to rebel. The old kingdoms have been reestablished one by one, and the Central Plains have fallen into chaos. Where is there any law left?"
Ye Yang finally understood and stepped forward to help Zhang Tianhe up, smiling as he said, "So it was a misunderstanding. You came to borrow Radiant Sun just to teach a lesson to the Seven Tyrants of Liang City?"
"Exactly!"
Zhang Tianhe clenched his iron fist and spoke emphatically, "The way of heaven is no more, the world is in chaos, and the common people are suffering. Heavenly Authority turns a blind eye to the mortal realm. I, Zhang Tianhe, am determined to act on behalf of heaven and eradicate all injustices in this world! Unfortunately, I have fought against three of the Seven Tyrants of Liang City before; all seven of them are Earth Level Two warriors and extremely powerful. I am simply no match for them!"
Ye Yang pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, Battle Axe Radiance cannot be used in real combat... How about this? I will accompany you tomorrow to teach those Seven Tyrants of Liang City a lesson. What do you think?"
Zhang Tianhe nodded heavily. "I hope you won't go back on your word. I will come looking for you tomorrow morning!"
"I will never go back on my word!"
Zhang Tianhe clasped his fists in thanks and disappeared into the night.
Ye Yang watched his retreating figure and thought to himself that this must be what youthful wanderers are like—always standing up for justice, drinking, and making friends. Such a life isn't too bad after all.
Returning to the ancestral hall, Ye Yang lit a lamp to examine the remnants of the deity's statue, which were beyond repair.
Ye Yang shook his head, realizing he had caused trouble again, and wondered if his father would blame him.
Just as he was about to leave, a faint dark red glow flickered among the shattered remains of the statue. Ye Yang was startled, sensing that there seemed to be a nearly imperceptible power within the statue.
He hurriedly held up the candle to search and found a fragment of a scroll among the broken limbs of the statue. The material was unknown but remarkably resilient; even though the stone was shattered, the scroll remained intact.
On the scroll, lines of densely packed small characters in seal script floated before him. Ye Yang had studied ancient texts before, so reading it was not difficult. He saw that the front of the scroll bore four large characters—Fire God Fragment!
"Fire God Fragment?"
Ye Yang felt a surge of excitement; this seemed to be something akin to the Fire God Technique, and it appeared to be even more powerful!
As he opened the Fire God Fragment, its contents were as profound and obscure as ancient script. Although Ye Yang understood the Fire God Technique well, he could only grasp the basics of this Fire God Fragment. However, he could confirm that the Martial Arts Manual and Mind Method within this Fire God Fragment seemed to be far superior to the Fire God Technique!
Now, two choices lay before Ye Yang: continue cultivating the Fire God Technique or practice this mysterious Fire God Fragment?
After much contemplation, Ye Yang made up his mind to take an unconventional path and secretly cultivate the Fire God Fragment!
After all, the Fire God Technique was not a rare treasure; millions of disciples from the Fire God Clan could practice it. In contrast, it seemed that Ye Yang might be the only person in the world who possessed the Fire God Fragment.
With the fragment in hand, he returned to his room and began following the instructions for the Mind Method on the scroll. The Fire God Power circulated repeatedly within him, bringing immense satisfaction after each cycle.
The next day, Ye Yang was still sitting on the bed, but he noticed that his Fire God Power had become even purer. He felt invigorated, as if the Fire God Fragment had already begun to show some effects!
……
"Young Master! Young Master!"
A maid called out from outside the door, "Young Master, it's time to get up. There's a man named Zhang Tianhe outside who says he has come to see you!"
Ye Yang replied, "Got it, you can go now!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
Ye Yang got up and went outside, calling out loudly, "Wealth and Prosperity, Jinbao, where are you?"
"Swish swish!"
Two lackeys appeared in front of Ye Yang, grinning as they said, "Young Master, what do you need?"
"Go to the back garden and fetch a dung bucket, fill it with manure, and bring a dung spoon. We're going for a walk in the streets!"
"Huh? Young Master, what do you need those for?"
"Stop asking questions and hurry up!"
"Yes!"
Not long after, two servants came out carrying a bucket of foul-smelling water. Ye Yang strode confidently to the front gate, and indeed, Zhang Tianhe was already waiting outside in a black outfit.
"Let's go, we are going to seek trouble with the Seven Tyrants of Liang City!"
Ye Yang, bearing the Haotian Sword and holding the Iron Sword, walked side by side with Zhang Tianhe on the streets of Liang City, followed by two servants and the unbearable stench of the bucket.
Zhang Tianhe did not know what Ye Yang intended to do, so he said nothing.
Passersby pointed and whispered—
"That young master from the Ye Family is going to show off again!"
"Yeah! This good-for-nothing is out again; I wonder which girl will suffer this time!"
"This kind of waste should have gone to hell long ago!"
"Indeed, a disgrace to the Fire God Clan, a disgrace to the family!"
…
Ye Yang heard all the comments from the passersby. He frowned, feeling somewhat depressed. What kind of person was Ye Batian before he occupied this body? It seemed that it would take quite a bit of effort to clear this skin's reputation.
As they approached a pork stall, Zhang Tianhe suddenly stopped and said, "Zi Yu, wait!"
"What is it?"
Zhang Tianhe pointed at the pork shop and said, "The butcher and his two henchmen here are three of the Seven Tyrants of Liang City: Spirit Serpent King Wu, Horse-Faced Beast Zhang Yun, and Immortal Vajra Qin Niu. They have brought disaster to the village. It is said that their pork contains seven parts pork and three parts human flesh, which shows how much the people hate them!"
Ye Yang nodded, stepped forward, and drew his steel Iron Sword with a clang, shouting, "Butcher Wang, come out!"
Immediately, the young attendant turned pale with fright, and three people swiftly rushed out from inside. Each of them was skilled in martial arts, with two gold stars emblazoned on their chests—proof that they were second-level warriors!
In Liang City, second-level warriors were already respected figures; third-level warriors were nearly at the level of instructors. The Seven Tyrants of Liang City relied on their formidable skills to wreak havoc in the area, and no one dared to confront them.
The leader was a lean man with steady steps, clearly adept at lightness skills. He approached Ye Yang with a grin and said, "Oh, isn't this the young master of the Ye Family? What brings you to my humble meat shop? No good deed goes unpunished."
Ye Yang smiled lightly but suddenly spoke in a deep voice, "Splash!"
Behind him, Wealth and Prosperity and Jinbao moved swiftly, each throwing a ladle of foul liquid!
Wang Wu was startled and was about to dodge when he was unexpectedly enveloped by a gust of force from behind—he found himself unable to move at all; it was Ye Yang's Barrier Wall!
"Thud!"
At the moment the foul liquid fell, Ye Yang withdrew the Barrier Wall. Wang Wu, this second-level warrior, stood there dumbfounded, unable even to make a move to evade!
In an instant, Wang Wu was furious, grabbing a butcher's knife and leaping forward, shouting, "Ye Batian, you're seeking death!"
Ye Yang revealed a smile and raised his hand, shouting, "Barrier Wall!"
"Buzz!"
A thick barrier of energy formed, and Wang Wu charged into it like a moth to a flame, being violently repelled and spitting out blood as he was thrown back, a pitiful sight.
Zhang Tianhe was astonished, never expecting that the guy who was evenly matched with him last night could severely injure a second-level expert with just one move!
In fact, Ye Yang himself did not anticipate this. As he circulated his True Qi, he felt the Fire God Power within him surging fiercely; this level of cultivation would likely take an ordinary person ten years to achieve.
The other two, Zhang Yun and Qin Niu, were also stunned.
"Pour!"
Ye Yang continued to command, and as two buckets of foul liquid fell, the two were covered in stench.
Zhang Tianhe laughed, "Zi Yu, you really are something!"
Ye Yang chuckled lightly, "In my hometown, the best way to get revenge is to carry a bucket of sewage into the street and splash it on anyone you dislike!"
"Haha, indeed very refreshing!"
Zhang Tianhe charged forward, delivering three powerful punches!
"Xingtian's Three Wrath!"
With a fierce wind, Zhang Yun fell to the ground, unable to rise, his chest armor shattered into pieces!
Zhang Tianhe, filled with rage, executed a strong spinning kick, sending another second-tier expert, Qin Niu, staggering backward. This person was surrounded by a layer of golden light that emitted a low hum!
Zhang Tianhe paused for a moment: "Hmph, Earth Element Vital Energy Shield? Die!"
With a swift second strike, Zhang Tianhe had already reached the initial stage of Earth Level Three. He couldn't handle three second-tier experts at once, but taking down one was more than enough.
Grabbing Qin Niu by the neck, Zhang Tianhe shouted loudly!
"Crack!"
The burly man was instantly killed as his neck was twisted. The surrounding crowd watched in shock, and after a moment, erupted into cheers.
