Supreme Sword God

Chapter 300: Chapter 299: Pretty Boy, Lend Me a Hand!

Zhou Chengyun’s face was deathly pale, standing frozen in place, utterly terrified.

His sixth brother, Zhou Chengqian, had died under Ye Chen’s sword... He felt he had no chance against Ye Chen!

In fact, after Zhou Chengqian’s death, Zhou Chengyun wanted to run away.

However, he couldn’t escape.

Yu Hui was constantly entangling him!

”Thunk!”

Before Ye Chen’s sword even touched Zhou Chengyun, Zhou Chengyun knelt down directly, crying out, ”Ye Chen, please...”

Unfortunately, he didn’t get to finish his words.

Ye Chen’s sword sliced Zhou Chengqian’s body from the head, splitting it in two, exploding open.

Mistakes must be paid for, begging for mercy meant nothing to Ye Chen!

Li Tianyi pursued again, unleashing a terrifying Sword Qi. Ye Chen’s figure flickered, evading Li Tianyi’s attack.

”Fatty, later I’m going somewhere, don’t follow!”

Fatty, who initially wanted to help Ye Chen deal with Li Tianyi, suddenly received a voice transmission from Ye Chen.

Fatty was momentarily stunned.

Li Tianyi’s sword was already slicing towards Fatty’s head.

Ye Chen executed the Heaven-Ascending Step, positioning himself in front of Fatty, sweeping with the move ”Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect,” neutralizing Li Tianyi’s offensive.

”Ah!”

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from Ye Chen’s mouth.

”Ye Chen, do you think I won’t dare? Your speed is indeed fast, your skills at fleeing remarkable, but I can kill everyone you care about first!”

Li Tianyi shouted ferociously, his killing intent rolling like boiling water.

”Fatty, hold him off for a while. I’m going to heal; it’ll be quick — at most a quarter of an hour and I’ll recover. When I return, I’ll slaughter him!”

Ye Chen spoke directly, and in the next moment, he dashed away from the battlefield.

Li Tianyi, who had just threatened to kill those Ye Chen cared about, now felt fear.

Ye Chen was someone entirely unpredictable... Perhaps, after a quarter of an hour, Ye Chen would really recover... If Ye Chen returned to the battle then... Li Tianyi feared he might fall into Ye Chen’s hands.

Thus, Li Tianyi pursued Ye Chen directly.

And this.

Was exactly what Ye Chen wanted to see.

Currently, only Li Tianyi posed a threat here; by drawing Li Tianyi away, Fatty and the others would be safe.

Now, it was time to retrieve the Holy Source Grass!

Having drawn Li Tianyi away, Ye Chen shouted, ”Pretty boy, lend a hand, break this barrier with me, I need to go down the mountain!”

The man who brought three maidservants to Lingyun Mountain, hesitated, then smiled and said, ”Ye Chen, you better remember this favor.”

”Alright, I’ll save your life someday!” Ye Chen shouted.

The man, called Pretty Boy, showed a trace of a smile, instantly rushing to the barrier at the top of Lingyun Mountain. His folding fan opened fiercely, phantoms of mountains and rivers appearing from the fan, striking the invisible barrier ahead.

Because the barrier had been broken repeatedly, it was considerably weakened. Pretty Boy’s power made the barrier oscillate violently.

Ye Chen, having once again shaken off the pursuing Li Tianyi, reached the violently vibrating section of the barrier, slashing a crack through it with one sword, leaping through.

”Pretty Boy, you help me kill one, and in the future, I’ll kill a hundred for you!” Ye Chen’s voice passed through the crack, entering Pretty Boy’s ears.

Li Tianyi, taking advantage of the crack not having fully closed, also pursued through!

Pretty Boy hesitated.

Having just helped Ye Chen once, Ye Chen owed him a favor, even saying he’d save his life in the future... Giving a favor was enough; as for Ye Chen saving his life... Impossible, what status did he have? How could he need Ye Chen’s rescue?

As for helping Ye Chen kill... forget it.

From the beginning, he had no intention of intervening in the fight!

As Ye Chen and Li Tianyi left.

Wu Ke and others from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect dared not continue fighting. They no longer had the advantage; continuing would mean death... Therefore, they began to withdraw.

A moment later.

Led by Wu Ke, she and three from the Sect Alliance, along with one from the Imperial Court, forcefully broke through the barrier and fled in disarray. Dongfang Xiu, waiting at the side, quickly followed, rushing out together.

Luo Tian, holding a heavy sword, clearly wanted to pursue.

Fatty quickly shouted, ”Don’t chase them!”

A group of people halted.

Originally, counting Ye Chen, there were thirteen people, later joined by Zhou Yanran bringing a Great Zhou Imperial Court elite, making fifteen.

Ye Chen drew away Li Tianyi, and two more fell in battle; now twelve remained!

But among the twelve, everyone was injured, some even severely poisoned.

”The injured should heal; those poisoned, I’ll try to help detoxify!” Fatty decisively declared.

”But Brother Ye distracted Li Tianyi on his own, and Wu Ke’s group escaped. If Brother Ye is surrounded... Brother Ye’s wounds are worse than ours!” Luo Tian’s thick brows knitted tightly.

Fatty said, ”He’ll find a way.”

Recalling Ye Chen’s transmission to him earlier, although still a bit worried, rushing in recklessly now might disrupt Ye Chen’s plans.

For now, recuperation was most important; Fatty was well aware, fiercer battles lay ahead!

The remaining members of the Thousand Spirits Sect would definitely return. Though their numbers had dwindled, they remained the greatest threat!

As for the mysterious Pretty Boy, Fatty had no expectations; that guy was clearly just a spectator, assisting earlier only as a casual favor. Hoping Pretty Boy would truly exert effort was impossible.

”At crucial moments, it still falls on Master Fatty. Although Brother Ye is smart, he’s inherently reckless, while Luo Tian is just a brute; all he knows is wielding that heavy black sword, nothing else.” Fatty was muttering in his heart.

On the other side.

Prince Qin Chong of the Great Qin Dynasty wore a complex expression.

Initially learning that Ye Chen had taken all the valuable things from the top of Lingyun Mountain, to teaming up with Zhou Chengqian against Ye Chen, only for their people to be killed by Zhou Chengqian’s associates...

Calming down, many things became clear.

Throughout the process.

Qin Chong felt like a bull with its nose ring being led around!

First led around by Zhou Chengqian, then by that Fatty...

Yet fortunately, he withdrew from the fight in time... Otherwise, he might have died at Ye Chen’s hands too.

Thinking of Ye Chen, Qin Chong felt a chill.

This was a madman ruthless to himself, even more ruthless to his enemies!

Pretty Boy, fanning himself, approached Qin Chong with three maids, saying indifferently, ”Ahead will be even more brutal battles, contests of absolute strength where having brains won’t suffice; even more so for those like you, lacking both brains and strength, you’ll die faster. So, don’t foolishly get involved again.”

Chastised by Pretty Boy, Qin Chong dared not make a sound, lowering his head with a hum.

......

At this moment, having drawn Li Tianyi out, Ye Chen burst forth at maximum speed, leaving Li Tianyi far behind. Soon, he reached the cave where Master Legs hid the Holy Source Grass and dove in.

Earlier, with Black Widow watching, he dared not enter the cave due to Black Widow’s formidable strength, fearing she might follow and trigger the indiscriminate attacks of Master Legs’ array.

As for Li Tianyi... not a concern here.

Once inside the cave, Ye Chen discovered that there was no path ahead, only a void leading straight to the mountain’s base... the interior of Lingyun Mountain was actually hollow!

Ye Chen jumped down directly, rapidly descending while manipulating his strength, constantly adjusting his descent path.

Because in this seemingly safe void lay arrays left by Master Legs everywhere, necessitating a specific route to descend; otherwise, it was a dead end!

Ye Chen was well aware that the situation on Lingyun Mountain was far from peacefully resolved; Zhou Chengqian’s death was just one step, and even if he dealt with Li Tianyi here, it wouldn’t suffice.

The real threat lay with those from the Thousand Spirits Sect.

The Holy Source Grass had to be retrieved while Li Tianyi was still a threat!

Once recovered, not even if Thousand Spirits Sect’s Shen Jie returned to full strength would it matter; slaughter at will!
