The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 406 - 405

Chapter 406: 405

"Recognize me?" Ye Xuan laughed.

His laugh was brilliant yet cold.

"Do you really think I don’t know why you’re here?"

Seeing Ye Xuan’s smile, for some reason, Peng Cangfeng and Du Feiyuan felt a shiver run through them.

This guy, he seemed to be wicked to the extreme...

It was a chilling feeling.

"Cough cough..."

Le Hongbo, who had been smashed off a cliff and buried under rubble, was severely injured and continued to cough up blood, looking utterly miserable.

He looked as bad as Liu Binghua now.

At this moment, Le Hongbo’s heart was filled with fear.

He had never imagined, even in his wildest dreams, that Ye Xuan’s strength would be so immense, the power he unleashed was truly shocking.

It was powerful enough to drive one to despair!

The power of that punch made him feel like it could claim his life in an instant.

But Ye Xuan, at the last moment, held back his strength, only causing severe injuries instead of taking his life, for reasons unknown.

Perhaps this was the reason why he had previously inquired about their background?

Le Hongbo wanted to let out a bitter laugh, but tragically, he couldn’t manage it; his jaw was dislocated, and he couldn’t muster any strength in his body.

That feeling was indeed life-threatening.

"Do I really need to use the power left by my Master?" Le Hongbo thought secretly to himself.

However, he still harbored a sliver of hope, believing that Du Feiyuan and Peng Cangfeng, as well as Leng Hongmi from the Red Sparrow Institute, could handle Ye Xuan.

Thus, he was not in a rush to make his move.

A trump card, as its name implies, should be played at the very end.

Boom!

However, just as Le Hongbo harbored this thought, he suddenly felt the earth tremble violently, as if something had smashed into the ground right beside him.

"Huh?" Le Hongbo managed to turn his head with difficulty.

Then, he saw a miserable scene.

He saw Du Feiyuan lying not far from him, his face covered in blood, motionless on the ground, breathing more out than in.

"How is this possible!?" Le Hongbo was stunned.

Dammit.

I was counting on you guys to turn the tables, and you were wiped out in the blink of an eye!?

Boom!

As if confirming Le Hongbo’s suspicion, the instant he had this thought, another thunderous vibration came from the other side.

Le Hongbo once again turned his head with difficulty to look in that direction.

There he saw Peng Cangfeng, bald-headed, his head thrown back, chest caved in, limbs still twitching unconsciously, and his eyes were beginning to roll back.

That scene completely dumbfounded Le Hongbo.

Although he had guessed this outcome after seeing Du Feiyuan, he hadn’t expected it to actually happen.

Du Feiyuan and Peng Cangfeng, just like him, had all been instantly knocked out!

What the hell was this!

They came looking for trouble and were flattened in the blink of an eye?

And they were given no chance whatsoever.

"No, there’s still Leng Hongmi from the Red Sparrow Institute; the Red Sparrow Institute is a first-rate cultivation Sacred Land in the East Desolation Domain, I don’t believe that guy would dare to touch her!"

Le Hongbo still held a sliver of hope in his heart.

He felt there was still a chance.

At that very moment.

Above the sky dome of Wan’an City, Leng Hongmi from the Red Sparrow Institute stared dumbfounded at the scene, completely flabbergasted.

First, Jin Jianfeng was instantly killed, and now Le Hongbo, Peng Cangfeng, and Du Feiyuan were each knocked out with a single punch?!

What kind of monster was this guy?!

Leng Hongmi found that she could no longer see through this man.

What realm of cultivation was this guy at?

Why was he so powerful?

Unlike Liu Binghua, the five people who came this time, including Leng Hongmi, were unaware of Ye Xuan’s strength.

Liu Binghua, at least, had seen Ye Xuan cultivating when she arrived, so she knew that Ye Xuan’s cultivation was actually at the Cave Heaven Realm, but these people had no clue about what realm Ye Xuan’s cultivation had reached.

Although it couldn’t conceal the fact that Liu Binghua had been hung up and beaten.

"Hmm?!"

At this moment, Leng Hongmi suddenly stiffened, feeling a daunting gaze sweeping over her.

Looking into Ye Xuan’s eyes, Leng Hongmi trembled, experiencing an internal wave of fear and panic.

What kind of a look was that.

In reality, Ye Xuan was just calmly looking at Leng Hongmi, slowly saying, "I am quite reasonable as a person. It seems you have the strongest backing, so I saved you for last."

"If you think I am being considerate, then just go over there and lie down yourself. I don’t want to make a move."

Ye Xuan’s light and breezy words left Leng Hongmi both embarrassed and at a loss for words.

What was even going on here?

Leng Hongmi took a deep breath, striving to maintain her calm, and softly said, "Ye Xuan, you misunderstand. I am from the Red Sparrow Institute. I came to assess your strength to see if you qualify to join our Red Sparrow Institute."

Ye Xuan glanced sideways at Leng Hongmi and said unhurriedly, "The Red Sparrow Institute, that place brimming with Yin Energy, is not to my liking. However, it was precisely because you are from the Red Sparrow Institute that I did not strike."

"Miss, go over there and lie down yourself."

This remark almost made Leng Hongmi burst into laughter.

She had clearly stated her purpose, yet this fellow still didn’t get it?

Do you know how many people in the East Desolation Great Domain want to join the Red Sparrow Institute?

Within the Red Sparrow Institute, there are the most beautiful women in the East Desolation Great Domain, all of them exceptional, and rarely seen by men.

Therefore, many young talents wish to enter the Red Sparrow Institute—not to excel in studies, but just to behold those beautiful human portraits.

Now, however, even when Leng Hongmi had made her intentions clear, Ye Xuan was utterly uninterested.

Leng Hongmi stared intensely at Ye Xuan, her tone turning cold, "Since you are in the Southern Domain, you probably don’t understand the vastness of the East Desolation Great Domain, nor the standing of Red Sparrow Institute here. I won’t be angry; I’ll explain properly."

"Our Red Sparrow Institute has a long history, standing in the East Desolation Great Domain for over a million years, with tens of thousands of Daoist Collections. Although there are not many disciples, numbering 300,000, ninety-nine percent are female cultivators, each one an exceptional talent."

"To be admitted into the Red Sparrow Institute is truly a great fortune."

"Are you sure you want to refuse me?"

Leng Hongmi looked at Ye Xuan.

Having explained the benefits, she just couldn’t believe that Ye Xuan would remain unmoved.

She knew that Ye Xuan came from the Emperor Immortal Sect, but the Emperor Immortal Sect had already declined compared to the Red Sparrow Institute, it was nothing.

Any normal person would feel impossible to refuse this offer.

She had emerged from seclusion specifically to personally search for disciples to take back to the Red Sparrow Institute.

After recognizing Ye Xuan’s extraordinary nature, Leng Hongmi felt he was qualified.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have talked this much.

After hearing Leng Hongmi’s words, Ye Xuan remained indifferent and lightly said, "Sorry, even if the founding Red Sparrow Fairy herself were to be resurrected, she couldn’t tempt me."

"Because I already have a wife."

"..." Leng Hongmi.

Leng Hongmi felt she was going mad.

This Ye Xuan must be a fool, right?

Temptation?!

She had said so much, wasn’t it to let Ye Xuan know about the strength of the Red Sparrow Institute? Why did it turn into temptation in Ye Xuan’s words?!

And, who cares if you have a wife—showing off?

Leng Hongmi was so frustrated that she almost went crazy. In the end, she coldly huffed and said, "Suit yourself, just don’t regret it later."

Leng Hongmi had decided to pay no more mind to this fool.

Though his strength and potential were not bad, his intelligence certainly needed improvement, so it was best to forget it.

"Hey, hey, hey, I didn’t tell you to leave," Ye Xuan said as he saw Leng Hongmi flick her sleeves and turn to leave, his tone light.

Leng Hongmi turned around, staring intensely at Ye Xuan, laughing in anger, "You still want to make a move on me?"

Ye Xuan sighed softly and said, "Originally, I didn’t want to make a move on you, considering you’re from the Red Sparrow Institute, but since you refuse to go over there yourself, I guess I have no choice but to take action."

Upon hearing this, Leng Hongmi could no longer tolerate this crazed man, and she activated her cultivation technique.

Boom!

Leng Hongmi’s red robe suddenly billowed, accompanied by a fragrance and an overwhelming oppressive force bursting forth.

This Leng Hongmi, her strength was far above that of Le Hongbo, Peng Cangfeng, and Du Feiyuan.

Ye Xuan stood in the air, tilting his head as he watched Leng Hongmi, instantly unfolding his Sword Domain.

Moreover, this Sword Domain didn’t just encircle Ye Xuan, but formed an invisible sword that instantly lunged forward, splitting Leng Hongmi’s aura in two.

Simultaneously, Ye Xuan almost instantaneously teleported, flashing in front of Leng Hongmi, his right fist clenched as he fiercely struck out!
