Supreme Lord of Towers

”What? The powerhouses of the Human King Hall actually offered an olive branch to Ye Chen? This is unprecedented!” The cultivators watching exclaimed in shock, their eyes full of disbelief.

One must know that the Human King Hall is one of the strongest forces in the Yellow Cloud World.

Even the Five Great Sacred Lands are very wary of the Human King Hall.

So, countless cultivators dream of joining the Human King Hall, but simply have no qualifications.

Only those who have made a certain contribution to the Human Race have hope of becoming a member of the Human King Hall.

And Ye Chen, who is only seventeen or eighteen this year, although he participated in a demon-slaying task, the Human Race Contribution Points he earned are certainly not enough to join the Human King Hall.

But now, that black-robed elder from the Human King Hall has come to actively invite Ye Chen to join the Human King Hall.

This shows how much importance he places on Ye Chen.

”Senior, I heard that after joining the Human King Hall, one must obey the hall’s orders, so I have to think carefully before giving you an answer,” Ye Chen said after a moment of contemplation.

In fact, he was also a bit surprised by the black-robed elder’s solicitation for him to join the Human King Hall.

However, he has always been used to freedom and does not like being bound.

And once he joins the Human King Hall, he would have to follow their arrangements and execute various tasks.

This clashes with his personality.

”Ye Chen, with your heaven-defying potential, after joining our Human King Hall, you definitely won’t need to execute as many tasks as others, and our hall can also protect you, so why not join us?” The black-robed elder once again tried to persuade Ye Chen earnestly.

”Please give me a few days to consider,” Ye Chen said with a bitter smile.

He really couldn’t make a decision at the moment.

Although the Human King Hall can protect him, he certainly would have to pay the corresponding price.

After all, there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Therefore, unless it’s absolutely necessary, Ye Chen wouldn’t easily join the Human King Hall.

”Alright! If you do decide, feel free to find me anytime,” the black-robed elder sighed.

The other cultivators, upon hearing they could join the Human King Hall, were all excited and proud.

But Ye Chen seemed so reluctant.

It really left the black-robed elder feeling helplessly amused.

However, Ye Chen’s potential is indeed heaven-defying, and he has the capital to behave this way.

If it were someone else, the black-robed elder would be too lazy to bother.

”Alright, I’ll take my leave now,” Ye Chen nodded, then abruptly flashed over to Ye Xi.

”Wait, Ye Chen, you’ve killed these two Outer Realm guests, their companions will definitely not let this go, so you’d better hide in Wind Shelter City and avoid running around,” the black-robed elder suddenly became extremely solemn, his eyes filled with intense apprehension.

One must know, Bai Feng’s strength, ranked only fifth among the Six Young Masters of Green Cloud, was already so formidable.

It’s hard to imagine how terrifying the other several powerhouses among the Six Young Masters of Green Cloud are.

In the entire Yellow Cloud World’s Profound Pill cultivators, few could match them.

Therefore, with Ye Chen’s current strength, defeating them is simply impossible.

If those powerhouses were targeting him, he’d be in grave danger.

”Is there anyone in Wind Shelter City who can resist those Outer Realm guests?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but ask the black-robed elder.

”This...” The black-robed elder was at a loss for words.

This time, the Human King Hall only dispatched a group of Profound Pill cultivators into the Ancient Ruins to maintain order.

As for the Venerable Golden Core, there wasn’t even one.

The strength of those Outer Realm guests was overwhelmingly powerful, far beyond what this group of Profound Pill cultivators could contend with.

So, even if Ye Chen really hid within Wind Shelter City, they had no confidence in being able to protect him.

”Senior, I bear responsibility for my own actions; this matter started because of me, so let me resolve it myself. I don’t want to get others involved, but I appreciate your kindness,” Ye Chen said with a slight smile.

Swish!

The next moment, with a flick, he vanished on the spot with Ye Xi, transforming into a bolt of lightning, speeding towards the distant sky.

As for familiar faces like Fairy Ming Yue and Fairy Lan Ling, Ye Chen didn’t say goodbye to any of them.

Because he worried about implicating them.

”Junior Brother Ye Chen’s strength has grown to such an extent, am I dreaming?” Watching Ye Chen’s vanishing figure, Fairy Ming Yue finally recovered from the shock, exclaiming with a sense of wonder.

Not too long ago, Ye Chen’s feat of slaying Tuoba Yun and Gongyang Liao was enough to shock her.

And now, even Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan, two prodigies who awakened a Celestial Level Sixth Grade bloodline, had fallen to Ye Chen.

Even two more powerful Outer Realm guests were no match for him whatsoever.

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she truly wouldn’t have believed such a heaven-defying genius existed in this world.

”He indeed is a freak, but he killed Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan; the strongmen of the Ye Clan and Ji Race will definitely not forgive him.

This time, even Venerable Zi Chen and others cannot shield him; the Ye Clan and Ji Race are certainly not forces we of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect can contend with,” Situ Qing said, shaking his head beside her.

The Azure Sky Immortal Sect, although a third-level Immortal Sect.

Even a first-level Immortal Sect trembles before the likes of Ye Clan and Ji Race from the Divine Spirit Realm, let alone the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

If Ye Clan and Ji Race truly wished to annihilate them, exterminating the Azure Sky Immortal Sect would be a trivial matter.

So, Ye Chen is truly inescapably doomed this time.

Even if he hides within the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, no one could protect him.

”Sigh! Now, only by joining the Human King Hall could there be any hope to save Junior Brother Ye Chen,” Fairy Ming Yue said with a sigh.

”He had better find a way to leave this Ancient Ruins alive first! Those Outer Realm guests, there are several more allies with them! Do you think they will let Ye Chen go?

Sister Ming Yue, I advise you not to have any further interaction with Ye Chen or else you might get implicated at any time,” Situ Qing said with a gravely serious expression.

”Could it be that Junior Brother Ye Chen is truly going to perish in this Ancient Ruins?” Fairy Ming Yue’s face turned extremely grim, her brows full of deep concern.

The Azure Sky Immortal Sect had never birthed such a heaven-defying prodigy as Ye Chen.

If his life were truly cut short, it would be such a pity.

So, Fairy Ming Yue genuinely hoped Ye Chen could survive.

Unfortunately, reality is often mercilessly cruel.

She could only pray for Ye Chen in her heart.
