Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

Looking at the utter devastation before them, everyone present trembled to their core.

A single strike, fueled by fury, had left both Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators grievously wounded and on the brink of death!

Just what terrifying power lay hidden beneath that slender, delicate frame?

”…”

Chen Lie’s eyes narrowed, while the other members of the Black Tiger Gang trembled in fear.

”I seem to have underestimated you…”

Before Chen Lie could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Song Yubing’s beautiful face was like ice as she swung her longsword again. A wave of Sword Qi, seemingly delicate yet unbelievably sharp, surged forward, as dense and relentless as the downpour raging outside!

Dissatisfied with her failure to kill the two Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators in one blow, Song Yubing clearly had no intention of letting them off so easily with this follow-up attack.

”You’re courting death!”

Seeing Song Yubing attack again without a word, Chen Lie flew into a rage.

He had underestimated her before. He never expected someone so young to possess such powerful cultivation.

Taking her seriously now, he held nothing back. He unleashed his own power as a Seventh Layer Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivator, his Spiritual Power surging like a tide. In the blink of an eye, it coalesced into a torrent of energy that shot toward Song Yubing.

BOOM!

However, the torrent of Spiritual Power shattered instantly against her overwhelming Sword Intent. The unstoppable aftershock flew past and finished off the two grievously wounded Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators.

”You…” Chen Lie’s eyes widened in fury. He couldn’t believe that even though he had gone all out, he had still failed to save his two men.

It was a great loss of face, and his heart ached at the loss.

After all, those subordinates were Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators. Even as an Elder of the Black Tiger Gang, he couldn’t afford to lose them!

The other members of the Black Tiger Gang looked horrified. They staggered backward and collapsed to the ground in a heap.

Song Yubing’s might was unparalleled, far exceeding everyone’s expectations.

Faced with that overwhelming pressure, these Cultivators, who hadn’t even reached the Primordial Mansion Realm, were like ants before a titan. They could only tremble, unable to muster a single thought of resistance.

Even Ye Chen couldn’t help but show a flicker of surprise.

Song Yubing was truly worthy of being a top prodigy of Cyan Rainbow Hall. She was in no way inferior to the monstrous talents he had encountered in the Dragon Prison Cave.

”If I can’t even take down a mere junior like you today, how can I still call myself an Elder of the Black Tiger Gang!”

Chen Lie attacked in a furious rage. His aura swelled, and a monstrous killing intent radiated from him, shaking the entire temple to its foundations.

Dust and debris rained down from the ceiling. It looked as if the temple was about to collapse.

Ye Chen frowned slightly. ”If you’re going to fight, take it outside. Don’t destroy this rare shelter from the rain.”

When Song Yubing attacked earlier, she had been quite restrained, carefully controlling her power and directing it only at the members of the Black Tiger Gang.

For a top prodigy from Cyan Rainbow Hall like her, accomplishing such a feat was a simple matter.

But Chen Lie was different. Leaving aside whether he even had the finesse to control his power so precisely, it was clear from his attack that he had no intention of holding back.

As the two Seventh Layer Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators were about to clash, everyone present was holding their breath. Ye Chen’s words were jarringly out of place, drawing a flurry of confused and mocking stares.

’Great Powers from the Primordial Mansion Realm are fighting, and a Spirit Sea Realm junior dares to butt in?’

’Does he have a death wish?’

Even Chen Lie was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Ye Chen to dare give him orders.

Song Yubing’s expression changed slightly. ”If you wish to fight me, then follow!”

Her robes fluttered like a butterfly in flight. With a light tap of her foot, she gracefully floated outside the temple.

A faint curtain of light seemed to envelop her. Despite the torrential downpour, not a single drop of rain touched her.

”Hmph!”

Chen Lie shot a sinister glance at Ye Chen nearby.

”After I’m done with that little girl, I’ll come back and settle the score with you, you reckless brat!”

With that, Chen Lie’s figure flashed, and he too appeared outside the temple to battle Song Yubing.

The clash between two Seventh Layer Primordial Mansion Realm Cultivators was a truly immense spectacle.

The curtain of rain was blasted into a fine mist by two massive torrents of Spiritual Power, scattering in every direction!

Watching the two fight outside the window, everyone couldn’t help but marvel at the sight.

At first glance, the battle seemed evenly matched.

As a young prodigy from Cyan Rainbow Hall, Song Yubing had a profound heritage and a solid foundation.

Although Chen Lie, as a cultivator of the same realm, lacked Song Yubing’s heritage, he was older and had spent much more time immersed in the Primordial Mansion Realm. His arsenal of techniques was in no way inferior to hers, and might even surpass it.

Thus, even though Song Yubing appeared to have a slight advantage, the battle fell into a stalemate.

The World Spirit stared, unblinking, at the battle outside. Her jade-like profile was mesmerizing.

Suddenly, she turned her head, her voice cool and melodic. ”Aren’t you going to help her?”

At her words, Ye Chen shook his head. ”She was too indecisive before. This battle is meant to temper her killer instinct. Even if I wanted to intervene, she probably wouldn’t accept it.”

The World Spirit nodded slightly and said no more.

However, when the others in the temple heard this, several of them sneered aloud.

”Seriously? What right does a Spirit Sea Realm fellow like you have to interfere in a battle of this level?”

”You obviously don’t have the guts or the ability to get involved. Why do you make it sound like it’s your choice?”

”I can’t believe there’s someone as arrogant and boastful as you in this world!”

The blue-robed youth could no longer contain himself and sneered right in Ye Chen’s face.

The others nodded in agreement, their gazes filled with ridicule as they looked at Ye Chen.

This time, their master, Yu Xiaoran, didn’t speak up to stop them.

He merely gave Ye Chen a passing glance before looking away.

The youth before him was only a Spirit Sea Realm Cultivator, yet he always carried himself as if he were above everyone else.

He found the situation rather absurd.

’Does this kid really have no self-awareness at all?’

Ye Chen’s brow furrowed slightly.

”You seem to have a problem with me?”

Stared at unblinkingly by Ye Chen’s indifferent gaze, the blue-robed youth suddenly felt a chill run down his spine for some unknown reason.

But he quickly composed himself and snorted. ”So what if I do?”

”No matter how talented or powerful you think you are, you’re still just in the Spirit Sea Realm. What gives you the right to pass judgment on your seniors from the Primordial Mansion Realm?”

Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled.

”Because with a single, casual sword strike, I can take the heads of beings like them. Is that explanation satisfactory for you?”
