The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 691 - 690: Rooting Out

Chapter 691: Chapter 690: Rooting Out

"You were dead, weren’t you?" King Peng exclaimed in shock.

Hadn’t they just said that Ye Xuan had died at the hands of someone from the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty? Why was he here?

"I died? I wasn’t aware," Ye Xuan said, holding the Fire Swallowing Treasure Bottle with a strange look on his face.

If those familiar with Ye Xuan heard this, they’d probably die of laughter.

The Undying Night Emperor, die?

Bullshit!

Even if the Heavenly King himself died, the Undying Night Emperor wouldn’t!

"Hm? How come you have that treasure?" It was only then that King Peng noticed the Fire Swallowing Treasure Bottle in Ye Xuan’s hand—the very artifact they were all vying for.

"It’s just a little bottle for holding fire," Ye Xuan casually played with the Fire Swallowing Treasure Bottle, speaking leisurely.

This Fire Swallowing Bottle was just something he had casually crafted years ago, mainly to collect Earth Fire. It wasn’t of much value.

Of course, that was to Ye Xuan.

For others, however, this artifact was extremely rare.

"Put down the artifact, and I’ll spare you!" King Peng no longer tangled with Lin Feiyan and rushed towards Ye Xuan, getting ahead of Lin Feiyan.

At the same time, others also spotted Ye Xuan’s presence and were amazed.

"Weren’t they saying Ye Xuan died? But here he is, alive and well. It seems like those folks from the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty said so just to save face."

"This is really a slap in the face, everyone said he was dead, yet here he is, alive and has even snatched the treasure."

"However, Ye Xuan coming here alone seems a bit reckless. Without the people from Mountain God Dao around, the Five Dominators of East Desolation won’t be cautious of him."

"......"

Many cultivators, who did not join the fray, whispered among themselves, discussing fervently.

The people from the Red Sparrow Institute, including Lei Mingze, also burst into laughter: "I just knew Brother Ye couldn’t possibly be dead, as expected!"

"What’s that guy up to?" Ye Qingyue pouted and frowned as she watched Ye Xuan in the distance.

"Why are you guys so excited? This guy came here alone, do you think he might not die later even if he hasn’t now?" An Xueyao smiled faintly, her eyes twinkling with a cold light.

Seeing Ye Xuan, she wanted to strike him down.

"What’s it to you?" Lei Mingze scoffed coldly.

An Xueyao nonchalantly said, "Just don’t forget, before entering Hengduan Mountain, the Eighth Prince of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, Wei Qing of the Medicine Pavilion, Chang Zuhua of the Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, the Saint Heir of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, and the Saint Son of the Six Demon Sect all wanted his life."

"This only got delayed because Ye Xuan and his group disappeared beforehand. Now that Ye Xuan has shown up, he is undoubtedly doomed!"

"So, don’t celebrate too early."

"You damned woman just deserve a slap," Lei Mingze sneered, his gaze unfriendly.

"Shouting about it is useless," An Xueyao was not angry.

Since she dared to speak these words in front of Lei Mingze, she naturally had confidence.

Although she had not ascended to the position of Holy Daughter, she was still very prestigious among the True Disciples.

Even someone as strong as Lei Mingze had to call her ’senior sister’.

"We’ll just watch then!" Lei Mingze snorted coldly, turning his gaze toward Ye Xuan in the distance.

At that moment, the forces of the Six Dominators of East Desolation, people from the Long Family, and the two Fierce Beasts vying for the Fire Swallowing Treasure Bottle all charged toward Ye Xuan’s location.

While they were shocked that Ye Xuan had appeared, they were furious that he had stealthily stolen the artifact!

"He’s alone, we absolutely can’t let him escape!" the Eighth Prince gazed toward the distant Ye Xuan, his eyes filled with killing intent,

He was determined to kill Ye Xuan!

Boom, boom, boom————

All of them charged toward Ye Xuan.

That included Lin Feiyan and King Peng.

The two were the closest to Ye Xuan.

King Peng moved the fastest, arriving in front of Ye Xuan almost invisibly fast. With a flap of his wings, a myriad of golden rays shot down, fierce and unrivaled, piercing through the void!

It was terrifying to the extreme!

Despite facing this storm-like assault, Ye Xuan stood in mid-air with one hand in his pocket, playing with the Fire Swallowing Treasure Bottle with the other, and watched the onrushing crowd with a calm expression.

In others’ eyes, King Peng’s speed was very fast, to an extreme degree.

However, in Ye Xuan’s eyes, it was as slow as a turtle, sluggish to death.

After a big recovery of his Emperor Soul, his perception had greatly exceeded what it used to be.

To him, these fellows were hardly worth mentioning.

Hum————

A faint black light flickered on the obsidian ring on his right thumb, instantly rising a barrier.

Boom, boom, boom————

The attack from King Peng as he flapped his wings, all landed upon that barrier and effortlessly neutralized it.

At that moment, Lin Feiyan had already closed the distance aggressively. Although not as fast as King Peng, he too was exceedingly formidable.

Lin Feiyan, with his War God Body partially awakened, was like an invincible divine being, one palm shake wrapped in Divine Flames.

"Die!"

Lin Feiyan’s eyes shone brightly, blazing with flames, his aura bursting to extreme limits, his entire being like a boiling ocean.

Boom!

That palm shook the heavens and the earth!

But at the moment of that attack, Ye Xuan took out his left hand from his pocket and similarly struck a palm.

War Demon Life and Death Seal!

Boom!

The collision of their palms was like two worlds crashing into each other, the surrounding mountains turned directly into powder, and trees into debris, swept away in the fierce winds.

Boom!

It was at that moment, Lin Feiyan was violently thrown backward.

And Ye Xuan remained unmoved.

"How is this possible?!"

In that moment, Lin Feiyan’s face turned deathly white, staring at Ye Xuan with eyes that swelled with shock and awe.

He, who had partially awakened the War God Body, possessed the absolute power to challenge those beyond his level.

To say nothing of a Life Palace Realm Ye Xuan, even a Heavenly Human Realm or even a Heavenly God Realm, he could clash against them.

Yet facing a Life Palace Realm Ye Xuan, he was not his match?

In a situation where he had the advantage, he was actually the one repelled!

Hard to accept.

"Master, what exactly is his situation?" Lin Feiyan once again plunged deep into doubt.

However, something even more distressing for Lin Feiyan occurred.

His master had vanished!?

Not responding to him as usual.

"What’s going on here?" Lin Feiyan looked at the ancient prayer beads on his wrist, feeling somewhat panicked.

This was his biggest trump card!

Lin Feiyan naturally could not see that on Ye Xuan’s right hand, a shadow of a black-robed old man emerged, his face full of panic, disbelievingly staring at Ye Xuan.

"Are you surprised?" Ye Xuan glanced at the old demon lightly and spoke indifferently.

This black-robed old man was the old demon who had always been hidden within Lin Feiyan’s ancient prayer beads.

This was Lin Feiyan’s so-called master.

"Who exactly are you?!" The old demon stared at Ye Xuan, voice filled with trepidation and fear.

He had not anticipated that during the palm strike between Ye Xuan and Lin Feiyan, he would be pulled out from the ancient prayer beads!

"I believe I had warned you before, hadn’t I?" Ye Xuan spoke unhurriedly.

The old demon’s body quivered slightly, his already ethereal form now even more unstable.

Previously, during the exchange meeting between Emperor Immortal Sect and Lie Tian Academy at Wansheng Mountain Arena, Ye Xuan had fought Lin Feiyan.

In that battle, Ye Xuan had already warned this old demon.

Let alone a commoner from Sky Covering Demon Sect, even the Sky Covering Demon Emperor, had he met him, would have to behave respectfully.

However, this old man seemed rather disobedient, daring to instruct Lin Feiyan to come and cause trouble.

"What if I told you that it was Lin Feiyan himself who came looking for trouble, would you believe that?" The old demon, now utterly panicking, could only speak in a low voice.

He hadn’t felt it before, but now, being held in Ye Xuan’s grip, he felt Ye Xuan could annihilate him at any moment!

On Ye Xuan, there was an extremely terrifying soul power.

That soul power, compared to his, was like a vast starry ocean to a speck of dust.

He was that speck of dust.

At this moment, he knew, Ye Xuan was not an ordinary youth, but an ancient being, more terrifying than him!

"This is your own affair." Ye Xuan spoke blandly.

"Senior, don’t kill me, I still have use. I can possess Lin Feiyan and make him serve you!" The old demon hurriedly spoke.

Ye Xuan suddenly smiled, slowly saying, "Do you think I would value such a short-sighted good-for-nothing?"

The old demon’s expression stiffened.

Indeed, with Ye Xuan’s strength, would he care about a mere Lin Feiyan?
