Ye Chen looked in the direction falling leaves were pointing to. He could see traces of the formation in the air, which were concealed.

Only those who looked closely would be able to discover these.

Ye Chen no longer hesitated. He activated the Azure Dragon Phantom Body technique and rushed over to the formation in the blink of an eye.

Pressing his finger against it, he felt that there was some sort of barrier in front of him.

“Trying to stop me with this kind of method? And here I was wondering what kind of powerful formation they had set up…”

Ye Chen snorted coldly. He formed a seal with his fingers and forced out a drop of blood, which fell onto the formation and dissipated.

Then, the formation seemed to tremble and shake. Ye Chen drew the Dragonslayer Sword and swung it at the formation, tearing a hole into the barrier.

There was another world inside!

Inside, there was a huge and magnificent palace, and he could tell that the spiritual energy here was far more abundant than outside.

Who would have thought that such a place would be hidden in a deserted farmland area in the western suburbs of the capital?

Ye Chen used one hand to tear the barrier open wide enough to step inside, and then he slipped inside.

As soon as he entered, two sharp voices rang out in his ears.

“Who are you? Where did you come from?!”

Ye Chen turned to the source of the voices and found two burly men in black suits staring at him.

There was a blood-red plum blossom mark printed on their clothes, and their killing intent was evident.

Xuemei Palace!

“Who are you? Show me your Bloody Plum Token or die!”

The two of them noticed that Ye Chen’s attire was unfamiliar, and immediately became vigilant and drew their weapons, ready to attack at any time.

Ye Chen scanned the surroundings and found no one else. Then, he pointed at himself and said, “You’re asking me?”

“Don’t try to pretend! Who else is here besides you?”

“I’m here to destroy Xuemei Palace,” Ye Chen replied coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, his body flashed and disappeared. A shadow passed between both of the men’s bodies, as strands of his true qi formed invisible blades that struck the two men.

By the time the two of them reacted, they realized that their bodies could not move at all!

What kind of strength was this?

Before they could utter a single word, blood spurted out of their bodies like a fountain, as countless wounds suddenly appeared on their bodies.

There had not even been time for them to raise the alarm before their bodies collapsed on the ground, and their blood dyed the ground red.

Ye Chen ignored their corpses and headed deeper into the forest. Once he proceeded further, he saw the grand palace in the distance. It was likely that there were many experts waiting for him inside.

Honestly, if he could take over Xuemei Palace, it would be a good thing.

He needed a force in the capital.

If Xuemei Palace was willing to merge with the Dark Hall, he could put Ye Lingtian in charge of this new force.

If Xuemei Palace did not cooperate, then they would become history today.

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed coldly as he walked toward the palace.

At the same time, there were nearly 50 top assassins gathered in the main hall, which included the elderly, children, women and men.

These people were good at disguising themselves and killing people stealthily. Furthermore, they were also all strong martial artists. Many of them even carried out their missions overseas as the Palace Lord did not restrict his ambition to Huaxia.

On the high platform was a stone chair carved in the shape of a tiger. Spiritual energy emanated from the stone chair, indicating just how valuable it was.

The middle-aged man sitting on the stone chair was the Palace Lord of Xuemei Palace, Zhan Tao!

Zhan Tao’s body was exuding a powerful fiendish aura that seemed almost tangible. Just his gaze alone was enough to make one’s heart palpitate!

Suddenly, Zhan Tao stood up. His eyes swept across the crowd as he said, “You should all know why I asked you to abort your mission and come back.”

“We know!”

Roars of acknowledgement were heard from below. Lu Hanshuang and Ling Feng were among them as well.

Zhan Tao nodded and placed his hands behind his back. He said, “Ever since my father handed Xuemei Palace over to me, we have never encountered any troublesome opponents and have never failed repeatedly. However, one such person has now appeared, and is standing in the way of Xuemei Palace! What do you think we should do?”

“Cut off his head and absorb his blood essence!”

Another shocking roar resounded through the hall.

“Good, very good! Tomorrow night, let me ask you, how many minutes will it take to cripple this kid and bring his head to me?”

Zhan Tao’s voice rang out again, cold and dignified.

As soon as he finished speaking, a masked man stood forth and roared, “Palace Lord, give me 30 seconds. I’ll definitely tear him apart!”

At the same time, another bearded man with a sharp saber stood up and said confidently, “Palace Lord, 30 seconds is too long. Give me 10 seconds and 1 will personally remove his head. I don’t even need a weapon! He isn’t qualified to make me draw my weapon.”

Zhan Tao nodded. He was very satisfied with these answers, but he still said, “Although you are the elites of Xuemei Palace and are extremely powerful, our people have already fallen at the hands of this little bastard more than once. To be on the safe side, 1 will choose 30 people from among you. Elder He will lead the group and set up an inescapable net at Capital City University. He will definitely die!”

“We will heed your order, Palace Lord!”

Ling Feng and Lu Hanshuang shook their heads helplessly. They hoped that Ye Chen had already left Capital City University. Otherwise, no one would be able to save him.

Right at this moment, a sudden change occurred. A black shadow charged towards Zhan Tao extremely quickly!

Seeing that this shadow was about to reach him, Zhan Tao sneered and unleashed a palm strike!

The palm strike was imbued with his fiendish aura as it swept toward the black shadow.

Pa da!

To his surprise, the shadow that flew toward him was a head! Furthermore, this head belonged to an expert from Xuemei Palace!

Seeing this scene, everyone’s expressions changed drastically. Whose head was that and why was it here?

Amidst the confusion, footsteps were heard from entering the hall, and everyone turned around to look at who it was.

Walking casually toward them was a young man in casual clothes with his hands in his pockets. He looked completely calm and unfazed.

When they saw the young man’s face clearly, they were stunned, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard in the hall.

All of them were like statues that stood rooted to the ground. Was this not their assassination target?

Why was he here? How was he here?

This was Xuemei Palace!

In the crowd, Ling Feng’s expression was extremely horrified, and Lu Hanshuang’s eyes widened as she reached out with her hand to cover her mouth.

He actually came here?

Was he courting death?
