A sudden gust of cold wind blew through the Mountain Cauldron, and Ye Xuan’s figure finally appeared in everyone’s sight.
Behind Ye Xuan, a twenty-meter-tall Divine Demon Statue had materialized. A Five-Clawed Golden Dragon coiled around his Divine-Demonic Overlord Body, making the Divine Demon Statue look even more majestic.
In front of Ye Xuan, five City Lords were still standing. However, all five of these City Lords had lost their heads. This was the reason why they stood rooted to the spot, completely motionless.
GASP!
Seeing the scene clearly, everyone gasped in horror. No one had expected that the fifty Sub-City Lords, joining forces to execute the Chaotic Heaven Sword, not only failed to kill Ye Xuan but were counter-killed by him, losing five men and having their Chaotic Heaven Domain shattered.
At this moment, everyone’s blood boiled.
"My God, how did Ye Xuan do it? He actually killed five City Lords right in front of all of us!"
"What happened in there just now?"
"The Divine Demon Statue! How could I have forgotten about this powerful Body Technique of Ye Xuan’s!"
"But that’s impossible. Isn’t that a Body Technique from the Super Spirit Realm? Ye Xuan is currently at the Demon Spirit Realm. A Super Spirit Realm Body Technique should offer him pitifully little help now. How can it still boost his strength?"
"Could it be... this is a Divine Secret Technique!"
Liu Ruoxi was already dumbfounded. The fact that Ye Xuan was still alive and had slain five City Lords dealt her a massive blow.
At this moment, having killed the five City Lords, Ye Xuan was preparing to strike again. Suddenly, a voice rang out in his mind.
"Do not think about killing any more. Take this chance and leave quickly, or else you won’t be able to get away."
This voice belonged to Senior Man Tian.
Ye Xuan made a prompt decision and returned to the side of the Cold Spring. By now, more than half of the Cold Spring was gone. Hua had collected most of the Cold Spring Water into her Qiankun Bag. Beside her, a wooden barrel had also appeared. Inside the barrel, Ye Ling’Er was soaking in the Cold Spring Water with her eyes closed. Although she was still unconscious, her expression was no longer as pained as before. This proved that the Cold Spring here was somewhat effective in treating her heat affliction.
"Hua, let’s go quickly!"
Ye Xuan knew that Man Tian possessed profound cultivation. If he told him to leave quickly, he definitely had a good reason.
Ye Xuan let out a loud whistle, and the Long-beaked Eagle descended from the sky. Right now, Ye Xuan was draped in a Golden Dragon, yet the Long-beaked Eagle acted as if it felt no pressure. That was because Ye Xuan had precisely controlled his Long Wei. Carrying the wooden barrel, Ye Xuan jumped onto the eagle’s back with Hua.
It was only at the moment the Long-beaked Eagle soared into the sky that everyone finally snapped back to their senses.
"Ye Xuan actually left! Should we chase him?"
"Chase my ass! The City Lords are all injured, who’s going to go after him?"
"My God, today’s events will definitely send shockwaves across the entire Kingdom. Fifty City Lords of One-Star Cities attacked simultaneously, and not only did they fail to capture Ye Xuan, but they were counter-killed, losing five men!"
"Boy, you just left like that?" On the icy surface, the Old Witch with Foot-Scratching Habits suddenly pointed at the sky and cursed.
Just now, seeing that Ye Xuan was not only alive but had also slain five City Lords, he immediately knew that the City Lords were no match for him. But they weren’t without a backup plan. The Old Witch with Foot-Scratching Habits had long set up an Unparalleled Killing Array nearby, specifically prepared to deal with this kind of situation. When the time came to activate the Killing Array, Ye Xuan would definitely be reduced to ash.
However, before he could even make a move, the boy had left without the slightest warning! He didn’t even take the Storage Rings from the fallen City Lords. This didn’t make any sense. According to normal logic, since he had already made his move, he would definitely go on a killing spree. Even if he didn’t go on a killing spree, he should at least take his spoils of war before leaving, right?
"Boy, do you have the guts to stay a little longer?!" The Old Witch with Foot-Scratching Habits beat his chest and stomped his feet, roaring at the sky.
But Ye Xuan did not respond to him at all. The Long-beaked Eagle became smaller and smaller, flying further and further away from the Ice Mountain. His primary goal for coming here was to obtain the Cold Spring Water.
"No, we can’t let him leave! If he hides again, who will be able to find him? Taishu Shen, you have to strike!" In a moment of desperation, Liu Ruoxi grabbed Taishu Shen’s arm, no longer caring about avoiding suspicion.
She only knew that she could not let Ye Xuan escape. This Ye Xuan was truly too terrifying. His cultivation seemed to have no bottlenecks; every so often, it would skyrocket madly. They could not let him escape again and give him more time. If they gave him more time, wouldn’t he break through to the Earth Spirit Realm? By then, who would be able to kill a Ye Xuan who had awakened a Dragon Soul? Unless a titan of the Celestial Spirit Realm emerged, he would be an absolutely invincible existence.
"Taishu Shen, as long as you strike, I’ll agree to any condition you want! Hurry up, if we’re too late, we won’t be able to catch him!" Liu Ruoxi shook Taishu Shen’s arm, her face filled with anxiety.
Taishu Shen did not say a word. Suddenly, he looked toward a certain City Lord and shouted in a low voice, "What are you waiting for, why aren’t you chasing him? If we can catch up to Ye Xuan, we might be able to find out where he’s hiding! I’ll go on ahead!"
As his voice fell, Taishu Shen summoned his Qingtian Crane. He leaped onto its back and departed first.
"Wait for me at the foot of the mountain," his voice echoed back. "I will see if I can catch up."
Taishu Shen’s actions finally snapped the experts at the scene awake. The City Lords consumed another Spirit Medicine, temporarily recovering from their injuries, and summoned their mounts one after another to give chase after Ye Xuan.
However, their efforts were destined to be in vain.
Even if their Flying Beasts were higher in level and faster in speed than Ye Xuan’s, they still couldn’t catch up at all. Waiting until they got close, Ye Xuan unleashed the Dragon Soul once again! As soon as the Dragon Soul emerged, even Rank Six Beasts trembled in fear, and their bodies plummeted from the sky.
BOOM BOOM BOOM.
The Rank Six Beasts crashed into the ground, erupting with deafening sounds. Falling from a height of a thousand meters, even Rank Six Beasts coughed up blood from the impact. Riding the Long-beaked Eagle, Ye Xuan ultimately disappeared into the horizon.
A night passed.
The tale of Ye Xuan’s great battle against fifty City Lords spread like wildfire, igniting the entire Kingdom.
"Huge news, huge news! The Celestial Calculation Mansion truly possesses divine foresight; Ye Xuan really went to the Ice Mountain!"
"What, those old men are that incredible? They actually calculated it? Then what happened to Ye Xuan? Did he die?"
"With fifty City Lords standing guard there, it was like catching a turtle in a jar. He shouldn’t have survived, right?"
"No, not only did Ye Xuan not die, but he also injured forty-five City Lords and even decapitated five of them right on the spot!"
"What, he killed another five City Lords? Those are City Lords! Can City Lords really just be killed so casually?"
At this moment, the prestige of the City Lords suffered a massive blow. In the past, a City Lord was like a Big Mountain pressing down on everyone’s shoulders, someone everyone had to look up to. But Ye Xuan’s appearance made them realize that City Lords were also human, and as humans, they could be killed.
After this battle, all the ordinary people in the world regarded Ye Xuan as a peerless hero. It turned out that as long as a person was strong enough, even a City Lord could be killed. Furthermore, they could be killed right in front of all the Cultivators in the world.
Ye Xuan killed them openly, and he killed them with absolute straightforwardness!
