Ye Xingchen stepped back five paces, while Chen Canghai only retreated one. Although Ye Xingchen was slightly inferior, his strength was enough to astonish Chen Canghai.
Chen Canghai was shaken to his core; he had not expected Ye Xingchen to be so powerful. Fortunately, he had come in person; if he had arrived a few months later, he might not have been able to contend with Ye Xingchen at all.
However, Ye Xingchen did not relent. Instead, he became even angrier, as if he wanted to unleash all his fury upon Chen Canghai. Ignoring the chaos around him, he channeled his spiritual energy and unleashed the Xuanbing Palm upon Chen Canghai without restraint. Each strike contained immense frost power, as if he intended to freeze Chen Canghai into an Ice Sculpture.
Though Chen Canghai was strong, facing Ye Xingchen's frenzied assault forced him to respond with all his might. He darted around, evading Ye Xingchen's attacks while searching for an opportunity to counter. Yet, Ye Xingchen's onslaught was like a torrential storm, making it difficult for him to withstand.
"Ye Xingchen, if you stop now and allow me to mark you with the Slave Mark, I can guarantee the safety of your Ye Family Ancestor!" Chen Canghai shouted loudly. He attempted to threaten Ye Xingchen by invoking the safety of his ancestor in hopes of making him cease his resistance.
Yet, Ye Xingchen seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. He laughed heartily, his voice filled with disdain and anger. "You think you deserve that?" he coldly replied. Then, he pulled out an old Peak of the King experience card from his pocket and said in his mind to use it.
In an instant, a pressure even more powerful than before emanated from Ye Xingchen. His aura became overwhelmingly strong, as if it could crush the entire world. His eyes sparkled like two brilliant stars, radiating a chilling light.
"Chen Canghai, today is your day of death!" Ye Xingchen roared. Then, like a flash of lightning, he charged toward Chen Canghai. His attacks grew fiercer and more ruthless, as if he aimed to completely annihilate Chen Canghai.
Seeing this, Chen Canghai was alarmed. He had not anticipated that Ye Xingchen possessed such a powerful trump card. He fought with all his strength to fend off Ye Xingchen's attacks but still found himself retreating under the relentless assault. He realized that escaping from Ye Xingchen's wrath today would be nearly impossible.
However, at that moment, a mysterious force suddenly descended from the sky and instantly neutralized Ye Xingchen's attack. Ye Xingchen was taken aback and looked up to see a figure slowly descending from above, radiating a formidable aura.
It was a true powerhouse—an existence that made him look up in awe. Just as Ye Xingchen resolutely activated the Breaking Void Eye to discern the true identity of this person before him, a cold voice from the System suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Scanning complete. Name: Chen Lin; Cultivation: Saint Mid-stage; Physique: Nine Nether Spirit Body. This person is Chen Canghai's grandfather. Due to clear regulations from the Northern Domain Alliance, Saint Realm experts are prohibited from participating in disputes among dynasty forces; therefore, the host currently faces no danger."
Upon hearing the System's report, Ye Xingchen's fury did not subside. He clenched his fists tightly, his gaze fierce as he thought: "Am I really just going to let that scoundrel Chen Canghai escape?"
The System seemed to sense Ye Xingchen's unwillingness and anger and quickly reassured him: "Do not worry; as long as you work hard on your cultivation, reaching the Emperor realm will be within your grasp. By then, avenging your grievances will merely be a matter of time."
Hearing this, a cold smile crept across Ye Xingchen's lips as he retorted knowingly: "Who are you exactly? The Northern Domain Alliance's decree states that Saint Realm experts cannot interfere in dynasty disputes. Are you really going to openly violate this rule?"
The enormous figure let out an astonished "oh" upon hearing this. He squinted slightly and scrutinized Ye Xingchen as if trying to see through him.
After a moment, he sneered: "You actually know about the Northern Domain Alliance’s existence; it seems your backing is not to be underestimated either. However, I have come this time only to take away Chen Canghai; I will not concern myself with anyone else. Thus, it does not count as violating those so-called rules."
With that said, he waved his hand powerfully, enveloping Chen Canghai in a surge of immense energy. In the next moment, both figures flickered and vanished without a trace, leaving behind an infuriated Ye Xingchen standing alone while Chen Canghai’s distant voice echoed back: "Ye Xingchen! Just wait! Our enmity will be settled sooner or later."
Ye Xingchen’s eyes sparkled with determination and defiance as he thought: "I just fear you won’t dare to come."
In Feng Lei City’s sky, light finally broke through after a long absence; the darkness that had shrouded the city for so long dissipated like mist before a gentle breeze, revealing a long-forgotten blue sky and white clouds. The residents of the city emerged from their homes like travelers encountering much-needed rain after a drought—dancing joyfully with expressions of indescribable happiness on their faces.
"Oh my! This is truly good news!" Zhang Dama exclaimed while hanging out freshly washed clothes and chatting with neighbors about how the darkness had finally lifted and how they could finally enjoy peaceful days in Feng Lei City.
However, amidst this celebratory atmosphere were some who harbored their own calculations. The elderly with weak hearts were particularly anxious and began considering moving away from this city filled with uncertainties. They felt that rather than live here in constant fear, it would be better to find a peaceful place for their twilight years.
In a remote corner of Feng Lei City stood a dilapidated thatched cottage—home to Wang Niu and Kong Tie Zhu. Calling it home was generous; it was merely a shelter from wind and rain. The two had been friends since childhood and had navigated life together in Feng Lei City through countless storms.
"Tie Zhu, are you really planning to move away?" Wang Niu asked reluctantly as he watched Kong Tie Zhu packing up their belongings.
Kong Tie Zhu paused his work and sighed, "Oh, you know I've lived in this city for so long, yet I've never had a single peaceful day. It's either a powerful figure from the Celestial Realm knocking at my door today or a master from the Feng Hou Realm passing by tomorrow. Now even the King and the Saint have come; my poor heart can hardly take it! I'm afraid that one day, if the Emperor is in a bad mood, I'll find myself facing the Underworld."
