Chapter 1269: Chapter 1268: The Disgraced Human Clan Practitioner

[I love you all, I want monthly tickets!!!]

Ye Tianchen let Little Zhu Yan stand on his shoulder, then walked over with the appearance of a leisurely Taoist into the crowd. Looking at the mountain gate not far ahead, he furrowed his brows slightly. There were elders from the Wang family, the Tripod Sect, and the Xinyang family, these three powerful local legacies of the Penglai Ancient Martial World, all seated cross-legged in front of the mountain gate, facing the crowd. There was a light screen at the mountain gate, seemingly impossible to breach, waiting for it to open by itself. These three legacies occupied favorable positions, ready to rush in and seize the treasure as soon as the Light Screen Formation opened, giving them a slightly better chance than other martial artists.

”Hey, little brother, what’s really going on here? Didn’t they already say the treasure has appeared? Why is everyone just waiting here?” Ye Tianchen glanced at the martial artist beside him and asked in puzzlement.

”Well, it’s hard for us to reach here, who knew an Immortal Light would rise to the sky, blocking the center of the Original Restricted Zone like a set Immortal Array, impossible for anyone to breach. Formation masters from powerful legacies examined it and said this Immortal Array would open in three days, at which time the treasure would appear automatically!” The young martial artist said somewhat disappointedly.

”It opens in three days? No wonder it’s already crowded here, everyone is holding back and waiting!” Ye Tianchen looked around at the dense crowd and said.

”Seems like this treasure won’t be mine. I advise you, Fat Taoist, to leave as well. Many people have died here already; strong martial artists and powerful legacies are starting to clear the scene, trying to drive away or kill some martial artists to avoid too many people making moves in the battle for the treasure, which would hold them back!” The young martial artist kindly reminded him.

”Really? That forceful?” Ye Tianchen feigned ignorance and asked.

”See those at the forefront? It’s the Wang family, Tripod Sect, and Xinyang family, oppressing some martial artists, trying to drive them away, and these martial artists wish to fight for opportunities, ultimately being killed!” The young martial artist shook his head and said.

”Seems like this is just the beginning. Once night falls, maybe many people will secretly make moves, then it will truly be blood-soaked!” Another martial artist beside him whispered.

Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows and didn’t say much but looked around. Aside from seeing people from the Wang family, Tripod Sect, and Xinyang family, he didn’t see any acquaintances entering the ”Original Restricted Zone,” such as the Yintian Saint Child from the Yintian Sect, the Tie Fan Prince from the Ancient Tie family, Pangu Yun from the Pangu Tribe, Huo Xianer from the Fire God Sacred Land, and Jing Wuhuan from the Purple Bamboo Forest. Where did these people go? Ye Tianchen felt puzzled, knowing that these people were top talents among practitioners of the same generation, pride of heaven, their cultivation realm not weaker than his, especially Yintian Saint Child and Tie Fan Prince, extremely fierce and insidious. He was afraid there would be a life-and-death battle between him and these two.

”Wasted, can you break this formation? Let’s figure out a way to sneak in and secure a favorable position!” Ye Tianchen transmitted his Divine Thought to ask Little Zhu Yan.

”No, to break this formation, special Divine Materials are needed, which might be found during Earth’s great cultivation age, but not now. We can only wait!” Little Zhu Yan shook his head and said.

”Didn’t you say you were a master at formations? Isn’t there any formation in this world you can’t break? Bragging, you overdid it this time!” Ye Tianchen mocked the wasted Zhu Yan.

”Damn it, if my body had no issues preventing me from achieving Great Success in the Three Head Six Arms Divine Skills of our Zhu Yan clan, this formation would have been smashed long ago...” Little Zhu Yan grumbled indignantly.

”I can’t be bothered with you!” Ye Tianchen disdainfully said.

Ye Tianchen looked around and found a cliff not far to the left of the mountain gate, still unoccupied. Instantly, he flew to it, sat cross-legged there. This was a vantage point, overlooking the area. Once the formation opened, he could rush down immediately. According to Ye Tianchen’s calculations, it wasn’t a worse spot than those occupied by the Wang family, Tripod Sect, and Xinyang family. Who would’ve thought there was such a great spot? Seems like it’s better to come timely than to come early!

”Taoist, this place is chosen by our family’s Young Master, please move!” Unexpectedly, as soon as Ye Tianchen sat down, a middle-aged martial artist appeared, looking at Ye Tianchen and spoke neither warmly nor coldly.

”Move, what do you mean? Is this spot your Young Master’s?” Ye Tianchen got slightly angry immediately, clearly perceiving the hostility and arrogance!

Ye Tianchen’s situation attracted many martial artists, all looking towards him, as so many martial artists gathered here—various characters mixed together. Many martial artists wanted to drive away or even kill certain people before the formation opened. In this way, after the formation opened fully, there would be much less competition.

”It’s exactly my choice, move when I say so, why so much nonsense?” A cold voice rang out, and simultaneously a palanquin appeared in mid-air before Ye Tianchen. This palanquin wasn’t enclosed but open; the entire palanquin was made of beast bone, flowing with a strong aura. At the front and rear of the palanquin, old servants carried it, while on top of the palanquin sat a child, no more than five or six years old but extremely mature with very long hair, all white!

Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows; the newcomer was aggressive, yet he was no pushover nor a soft target. He coldly smirked, ignoring the situation, and continued to meditate with closed eyes. He truly hadn’t expected to encounter such arrogant people in this world.

”What? That palanquin?”

”That’s from the Hundred Beast Mountain; the occupant should be the grandson of the old Beast King of Hundred Beast Mountain...”

”Hundred Beast Mountain is a powerful Demon Beast domain in the Penglai Ancient Martial World. Almost no one dares to enter. It’s rumored the old Beast King of Hundred Beast Mountain is a White Leopard, seems like the rumor is true!”

”I didn’t expect the White Leopard Beast King’s grandson to appear as well. This treasure indeed stirs the heart!”

”Could even the White Leopard Beast King come?”

”It’s over, that Fat Taoist might be in danger; Hundred Beast Mountain has always been quite formidable!”

People around couldn’t help but whisper after seeing this sedan chair. These words naturally reached Ye Tianchen’s ears, but he didn’t care. He had always been fearless. If someone dared to bully him like this, he, Ye Tianchen, would not show mercy.

”Fat Taoist, our young master is speaking to you, didn’t you hear? Are you mute or deaf?” The leading middle-aged man glared at Ye Tianchen and said.

”Just your young master isn’t qualified to speak with me. Let the White Leopard come...” Ye Tianchen replied lightly.

”You...” The middle-aged martial artist was stunned, not reacting for a moment, never expecting anyone to dare to directly address the old Beast King by name. Was he seeking annihilation and eternal damnation? He was trembling with fear!

”Oh god, did I hear it wrong? This Fat Taoist dares to call the Hundred Beast Mountain Beast King the White Leopard...”

”This is utter disrespect!”

”It’s over; blood will be spilled on the spot again; there’s no peaceful resolution for sure!”

At this moment, the middle-aged martial artist recovered, revealing a murderous look in his eyes, and immediately struck toward Ye Tianchen’s crown while shouting, ”Arrogant!”

A gigantic hand appeared in the sky. This middle-aged martial artist’s cultivation wasn’t weak; he had already reached the Early-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm, which was quite powerful among the Human Clan practitioners. However, in front of Ye Tianchen, he was nothing and shouldn’t have attacked Ye Tianchen; he was courting death.

Whoosh!

Ye Tianchen still closed his eyes, not even glancing at the middle-aged martial artist, merely flicking out two finger forces, and a burst of blood splattered. The middle-aged martial artist screamed, knocked away, stunning everyone present. No one expected this Fat Taoist to be so powerful.

”You...” The middle-aged martial artist was shocked. At first, he hadn’t realized Ye Tianchen was so strong because Ye Tianchen hadn’t released the aura of a Mid-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm. Now suddenly taking action, he felt that violent force, knowing he might not be a match for this Fat Taoist.

”As a Human Clan practitioner, willingly serving as a servant to Demon Beasts is truly disgraceful!” Ye Tianchen spoke coldly, like a slap on the middle-aged martial artist’s face, making it burn painfully, since most people here were Human Clan martial artists.

”Hmph, what do you know? The grandson of the Hundred Beasts King is incredibly powerful, born with divine power, not comparable to ordinary people!” the middle-aged martial artist said harshly.

”Disgraceful!”

Ye Tianchen only uttered these two words, and the middle-aged martial artist flew backward, heavily crashing to the ground, unable to get up!

No one expected that in the face of Hundred Beast Mountain, a place no Human Clan practitioner dared to provoke lightly, Ye Tianchen would remain so casual, seemingly indifferent, even with the grandson of the Hundred Beast King before him. Such audacity was shocking.

Boom!

Boom!

Suddenly, the beast bone sedan chair in the air rose, and the two old servants carrying the sedan walked toward Ye Tianchen together. One of the old servants, with eyes full of murderous intent, said with a cold smile, ”Young man, you are indeed too arrogant and deserve to die!”

”Am I the arrogant one, or are you the domineering ones? You want to seize the place I first laid eyes on, and if I refuse, you want to kill me. I only retaliated, yet you call me aggressive. It seems there’s indeed no reasoning in this world!” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but sneer.

”The reasoning is with us, Hundred Beast Mountain. What we say is the truth; even if we’re overbearing, the one who deserves to die is you!” Another old servant, exuding a strong murderous aura, said coldly. (To be continued.
