Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 864 - 862: Just So-So!

The battle was on the verge of breaking out.

At this moment...

A loud and bold laughter suddenly came from above the river, causing the tense atmosphere to briefly halt: "Hahaha, how timely my arrival is, to witness such a thrilling spectacle. Zhou Chen, you truly are regressing the older you get; even a junior dares to disrespect you!"

Everyone looked toward the source of the voice.

Zhou Chen's face darkened instantly as he was already very annoyed that Xiao Yi had not shown him respect.

Now, with someone mocking and ridiculing him on the side, it was like salt being rubbed into his wounds.

His gloomy and malicious gaze turned toward the source of the voice, but this glance made Zhou Chen's solemn face even graver: "Wang Chuantian?"

"What? Wang Chuantian himself came?"

Nantian Wen's expression also suddenly changed as he solemnly looked at the newcomer.

Beside him, Nantian Ao was stunned and asked, "Your Majesty, who is this Wang Chuantian?"

"Changsheng Sect, the eighth Vice Sect Hierarch!"

Nantian Wen slowly stated the identity of the man, shocking Nantian Ao and all the powerhouses from the Nantian Dynasty aboard the ship.

The Changsheng Sect was no less powerful than the sacred sites of Nantian.

Although due to the suppression by the six sacred sites, the Changsheng Sect had always operated in the shadows, no one dared to underestimate them. With thirty-six Elder Tiangangs, seventy-two Earthshatter Elders, and eight Vice Sect Hierarchs, each was a formidable force to be reckoned with.

Especially the eight Vice Sect Hierarchs, the weakest among them was of the Tianzun level.

Zhou Chen, with a frosty face, stared at the suddenly appearing Wang Chuantian: "Wang Chuantian, has your Changsheng Sect run out of people, to have to send you, the grand eighth Vice Sect Hierarch, to personally take action?"

"Tsk!"

Wang Chuantian sneered, obviously hearing the provocation and mockery in Zhou Chen's words, he pointed towards Xiao Yi and indifferently said, "This young lad dares to slay many of our Holy Church's powerhouses, as the Vice Hierarch of the Holy Church, it is naturally my duty to act."

Zhou Chen's eyes shifted.

A sinister and bizarre gleam flitted across the depths of his eyes, and he sneered: "If your target is Xiao Yi, then I must regretfully inform you, his life belongs to my Nantian Holy Land. Your Changsheng Sect might have a long reach, but it's not likely to extend to him under my watch…"

Wang Chuantian was indistinctly displeased by that arrogant and haughty attitude.

They were all Tianzun-level powerhouses!

But all this time...

The Changsheng Sect had been shunned by all the sacred sites, thus placing those from the sacred sites a step above the members of the Changsheng Sect.

Wang Chuantian snorted coldly, his delicate and fair fingers tenderly brushed back a lock of hair and then stated word by word: "Zhou Chen, you are far too dismissive of others. Since I personally descended here, then the fate of this Xiao Yi can only be decided by me, how could it fall into your hands?"

"So, you intend to compete with me for him?" Zhou Chen said sinisterly.

"I will take him, what can you do about it?"

Wang Chuantian slightly leaned forward.

Both men locked eyes, neither willing to back down.

In their counterpoints.

A tangible glare burst from their eyes, colliding in the void and sparking fierce flames.

At the center of their boundary line, a huge tornado spontaneously appeared, roaring as it swept up countless river waters into the sky. The turbulent surface of the river stirred up enormous waves.

At that moment...

Xiao Yi's languid voice resounded: "Is everyone rushing to court death these days? Stop fighting over it, just come at me together!"

What?

Xiao Yi's words, possessing a strange magic power, completely collapsed the hard-earned momentum between the two.

Everyone looked at Xiao Yi in bafflement.

Qiu Yiyun covered her face and exclaimed, "Fuck, Xiao Yi, what the hell are you trying to do?"

"Has this guy gone mad?"

That was everyone's first thought.

He was facing two Heavenly Venerable strong practitioners, one an Elder Supreme from the Nantian Holy Land, the other the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Changsheng Sect.

Such beings…

Any one of them could trample over ninety-nine percent of the strong in the Southern State, those who could contend against them alone were rare, let alone challenge two at once?

Even Nantian Wen was dumbfounded, then he smiled bitterly shaking his head, his look at Xiao Yi tinged with disappointment: "He's indeed too young, slightly accomplished and already ignorant of the vastness of heaven and earth, disregarding everyone. He is arrogant without sufficient strength, this will bring him suffering!"

Zhou Chen and Wang Chuantian exchanged glances.

Both turned their gaze towards Xiao Yi.

Their eyes were filled with intense mockery and ridicule.

Fighting against the two of them simultaneously?

Even as strong as Nantian Wen wouldn't dare make such a decision lightly.

Zhou Chen shook his head and sneered, "I've never seen such a reckless and ignorant person!"

"Zhou Chen, stand aside and watch how I teach this insolent brat a lesson!" Wang Chuantian spoke.

This time Zhou Chen did not stop him.

On one hand, he was inclined to let Wang Chuantian make a move; on the other, Xiao Yi's contempt had thoroughly enraged him.

With a leap, Wang Chuantian's figure seemed to blend into the void, becoming invisible, silently appearing behind Xiao Yi. With a ferocious sneer, Wang Chuantian raised his right hand.

His palm seemed ordinary, but upon closer inspection, one would see a nearly transparent white vortex in the center of the palm.

Life and Death Seal!

Seeing the vortex above Wang Chuantian's palm, Zhou Chen's face slightly changed, a serious look flashing through his eyes: "It seems Wang Chuantian is truly intent on killing Xiao Yi, using the Life and Death Seal right from the start, this move will leave Xiao Yi either dead or severely wounded!"

Buzz!

The Life and Death Seal suddenly descended.

The vortex seemed small, yet it held incomparable power.

This power could even bind the movements of a Heavenly Venerable strong practitioner, leaving them like a target, standing still, awaiting capture.

Seeing Xiao Yi immobilized by the Life and Death Seal, waiting for this palm that could injure a Heavenly Venerable to fall, Wang Chuantian's face revealed a cold smile: "Boy, today I will let you know, the strength you take pride in is like a vast chasm compared to a Heavenly Venerable, insurmountable!"

Buzz!

Mixed with the aura of death, the cold palm fell like an ice blade, "Pfft", directly chopping down on the back of Xiao Yi's neck.

Xiao Yi's body swayed, almost as if his corpse was about to be severed.

"So weak!"

Wang Chuantian spoke mockingly.

However…

His words had just finished, the mockery and contempt on his face suddenly froze, his eyes widening in disbelief as he looked at the "Xiao Yi" in front of him. This "Xiao Yi" split in half by his palm blade rippled like water, gradually dissipating into the void.

This…

Was just an afterimage!

And at this moment…

Behind Wang Chuantian, Xiao Yi's lazy voice suddenly sounded, "Heavenly Venerable? Just so-so!"
