Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1226: Chapter 1225: Blood-Soaked Night

The powerful Martial Saint from the Tripod Sect merged with his blade, unleashing an immense force that transformed into a gigantic blade shadow, slashing down towards Ye Tianchen. At this moment, Ye Tianchen dared not hold back. After all, this strong figure possessed the strength of the Martial Saint Realm. Even if he was no match for him, instantly defeating him would be difficult. Moreover, the Tripod Sect was one of the top formidable heritages in the Penglai Ancient Martial World, with unknown terrifying depths, so he couldn’t be too careless.

Pa!

At the critical moment, Ye Tianchen formed his hands into palms, also exploding with tremendous power, blocking the fierce blade shadow. But unexpectedly, at this moment, from behind him, a powerful fist intent attacked, aiming to shatter his head directly, annihilating him completely. Startled, Ye Tianchen frowned, realizing someone was hiding in the shadows, intending to ambush him and kill him with one strike. Who was this person? Such depth of deception and venom, without the slightest warning signs beforehand.

Being attacked from both sides, Ye Tianchen seemed to be in a hopeless situation, with nowhere to evade. The Tripod Sect’s Martial Saint sneered coldly, saying, ”It seems someone else wants to secretly eliminate you; you’re truly unlucky!”

Ye Tianchen remained silent, suddenly grabbing the slashing blade shadow with his right hand, while his left forefinger suddenly trembled along the blade’s body. With a loud buzz, the massive blade shadow was actually shaken away by Ye Tianchen, flying sideways, astonishing the Tripod Sect’s Martial Saint figure, who found it hard to believe, as he never expected Ye Tianchen to so easily shake off his Divine Blade.

”Such strong physical power!” The Tripod Sect’s Martial Saint couldn’t help but grit his teeth and say.

Simultaneously, Ye Tianchen turned around, tightly clenching his right fist. The Overlord Fist’s force flickered with immense might. At this moment, Ye Tianchen resembled an overlord descending upon the world, enraged at the treacherous attacker trying to kill him with a single blow. Such despicable scoundrel with profound schemes was utterly shameful, deserving of a punch to kill.

Boom!

The Overlord Fist’s momentum erupted, and Ye Tianchen’s eyes also shot out a light, looking towards the place where the ambushing fist intent came from, seeking to know who would be so despicable as to only dare attack from the shadows.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, two enormous fist intents clashed mid-air, undeniably powerful, with their collision illuminating more than half the manor, astonishing the Tripod Sect’s Martial Saint figure, as these two were incredibly strong, even surpassing his combat power!

Ye Tianchen frowned, not expecting this person to be so strong, not weaker than him at all. Even after unleashing the Overlord Fist with five-tenths of his skill, he couldn’t instantly crush the opponent’s fist intent, indicating the attacker’s formidable strength. Ye Tianchen was for the first time sensing this person’s unfathomable nature, certainly a formidable enemy never encountered before, as that energy’s aura felt entirely different.

”If you want to kill me, don’t hide in the shadows!” Ye Tianchen shouted loudly, his fists pounding out, striking towards the dark corner.

Bam!

Bam!

Bam!

Confronting Ye Tianchen’s earth-shattering fist intentions, the hidden figure seemed surprised but didn’t retreat, still trying to kill Ye Tianchen without revealing his true identity.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Palms filled the sky, the opponent responded with powerful palm intentions. Throughout, Ye Tianchen noticed the opponent never used Martial Arts Divine Skill nor Martial Arts Treasure. It seemed he feared his identity being discovered, so he deliberately used Martial Arts True Qi for a solid confrontation.

The sky was filled with the force of fists and palm strikes clashing. Ye Tianchen’s expression was very serious. He sensed the opponent’s strength, definitely not inferior to his own combat power. He hadn’t expected someone would be lurking in the shadows, waiting for a chance to kill him. It’s said that an open attack is easy to dodge, but a hidden one is hard to defend against. Such people are the most vicious and difficult to guard against. Therefore, Ye Tianchen didn’t want to leave a living mouth, wanting to execute this person here. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know when he would face such a strong enemy’s sneak attack again, and he couldn’t afford to be careless.

Finally, the sky filled with the force of fists and palm strikes disappeared. Ye Tianchen had a slight edge. The person in the darkness never showed up, only emitting a strange sound and couldn’t help but say, ”Your body is indeed strong, worth my taking!”

”Where do you think you’re going!”

Ye Tianchen sensed that this strong enemy who had ambushed him wanted to flee and didn’t want a life-and-death fight with him. Immediately, he performed the ”Divine Movement Skill,” with speed reaching the extreme, rushing towards the darkness.

Clap!

Crash!

With a palm strike falling, Ye Tianchen, even with such speed, couldn’t hit the strong enemy hiding in the darkness. This strong enemy seemed unwilling to reveal their true identity, hence avoiding the fight. Given their power, they were sufficient to have a life-and-death duel with Ye Tianchen, and the outcome would be unpredictable. This shocked Ye Tianchen, but surely he wasn’t afraid because he was intrinsically a person who grows stronger when encountering strong opponents. The stronger the opponent, the stronger he became.

Swoosh!

At the moment Ye Tianchen landed, although he didn’t see the face of the person who ambushed him, he saw a silhouette wearing the same Taoist robe as himself and having a similar build, which made Ye Tianchen even more puzzled. It seemed that the Martial Saint Realm expert from the Tripod Sect wasn’t mistaken. Apparently, someone was impersonating him, killed the old man from the Tripod Sect, and stole the Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass. Who could it be? The only ones who knew the old guy from the Tripod Sect and the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family had the Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass were him, Ye Tianchen, the pipe-smoking old man, the Wudao Saint Child, the old guy from the Tripod Sect, and the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family. Ye Tianchen hadn’t actually taken action; he was sure of it. So, which of the remaining four people could it be? So ruthless, they not only want to kill the old guy from the Tripod Sect to seize the Treasure Medicine but also frame him, Ye Tianchen. Who on earth could this person be?

”It seems this person has long harbored the thought of killing me in ambush, yet I didn’t notice at all. I can’t let this person get away; I must expose his true face!” Ye Tianchen thought to himself, transforming into a beam of light and chasing after him.

The remaining expert in the Martial Saint Realm from the Tripod Sect never thought he would be so blatantly ignored, trembling with anger but helpless. From the previous strike, he had already weighed, realizing he wasn’t a match for Ye Tianchen. Perhaps the reason Ye Tianchen hadn’t struck him down was that he wanted to get to the bottom of this matter too!

Throughout the manor that the Wang family left for Ye Tianchen and others to reside in, dust and black fog were pervasive everywhere. It seemed that someone deliberately performed such Martial Arts Divine Skill wanted to deceive and do despicable things while everyone was in chaos. The sound of struggles and screams could be heard incessantly, with martial artists crashing and trying to seize the opportunity to escape from the Wang family manor. Obviously, they were very distrustful of the Wang family’s version of events; otherwise, they wouldn’t be behaving like this.

At this moment, a Dragon Horse Imperial Carriage appeared on the outskirts of the Wang family manor, still hovering in mid-air, accompanied by two beautiful maids. One of the maids glanced inside the manor before respectfully saying to the interior of the Dragon Horse Imperial Carriage, ”Miss, it turned out just as you predicted, still a big mess!”

”The eldest young master and the third young master’s people have already gone in. They have always advocated killing everyone here, and it seems we can’t stop it!” Another maid also said, feeling a bit regretful.

”I only hoped for fewer casualties, so I asked my father to let me handle this matter. But now that there’s chaos inside the manor, eldest brother and third brother have found their excuse to act, and I am powerless!” A female voice came from within the Dragon Horse Imperial Carriage, sounding somewhat regretful.

”Miss, you have already done your best. Wanting to save these people was their disbelief in you, so you cannot be blamed!” One maid said earnestly.

”Miss, what should we do now?” Another maid asked softly.

”At this point, we can only go with the flow. I cannot stop elder brother and third brother. They aim to seize the Martial Arts Divine Skills and Treasures from these powerful martial artists. They’ve already taken action, so we cannot stop them. We can only wait and see how things unfold!” The woman in the Dragon Horse Imperial Carriage said helplessly.

It turned out when the Wang family learned about the matters at the Taishi family ruins; they immediately dispatched numerous experts. This Linxian City was their Wang family’s territory, so they naturally wouldn’t allow anyone to take away the Taishi family’s legacy, which was both powerful and tempting. The Wang family naturally also wanted to claim it for themselves. Thus, the Wang family’s eldest young master and third young master, with ruthless determination, suggested to their father, the head of the Wang family, to wipe out all the martial artists at the Taishi family ruins.

To become the head of the Wang family and get such a legacy’s power, naturally, the head of the Wang family was no pushover and was also heartless. Just when he was about to adopt his two sons’ suggestion and deploy the Wang family’s capabilities to kill all the martial artists at the Taishi family ruins, his daughter, the Wang family’s second miss, intervened. The Wang family’s head, who doted on this particular daughter, finally agreed not to kill those at the Taishi family ruins, leaving her to handle the situation. However, the elder and third brothers, being warmongers, wouldn’t relent, forcing the Wang family’s second miss to acknowledge that if she didn’t handle it well, she wouldn’t be able to stop her brothers from intervening in this matter.
