"Master Ye, you're making a mountain out of a molehill."

"We really didn't mean to steal anything, Patriarch Ye, you have to believe us."

These martial artists spoke one after another, all with a smirk on their faces.

It was at this moment that the weapon-refining furnace in front of Ye Feng slowly opened.

A nine-colored beam of light shot out from the refining furnace and soared into the sky!

The nine colors of light—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white—seem to pierce through the heavens and earth, dazzling even in the daytime!

"The furnace is open!"

Ye Xinlian said excitedly.

Suddenly, the young martial artist who had been chatting with Yu Baiyi earlier left a blur as he flew towards the weapon-refining furnace in front of Ye Feng.

Ye Wuyue snorted coldly and reached out to grab the young martial artist from a distance.

But the martial artist laughed loudly, "Patriarch Ye, do you think I wouldn't make a move so easily if I didn't have some skills?"

As he spoke, the martial artist transformed into three illusory figures. Ye Wuyue only managed to grab one of them, but it was clear that she had only grabbed a fake body.

However, Ye Xinlian, Ye Xinlan, and Ye Xinmei also joined forces.

Although the young martial artist was very fast and broke through the blockade of Ye Xinlan and Ye Xinmei, he was stopped by Ye Xinlian.

"court death!"

Ye Xinlian struck out with her palm, hitting the young martial artist, but the martial artist's body immediately disintegrated and disappeared.

It's also a fake!

The last one remaining is naturally the main body.

But he had already reached Ye Feng's forging furnace and grabbed it into the furnace.

"You have quite the nerve!"

After Ye Feng finished speaking, he snorted, and the young martial artist's body trembled violently, blood flowing from his seven orifices!

The next moment he suddenly collapsed to the ground, turning into a corpse that was still warm!

"They dare to steal my things? They're courting death."

Night Breeze slowly stood up, hands behind her back.

"Mr. Ye, have you finished refining the weapon?" Ye Wuyue asked hurriedly.

"No, it's still a little short."

The night wind shook its head.

"What do you mean by 'almost there'?" Ye Wuyue asked, puzzled.

“We still need a demon beast's inner core,” Ye Feng replied.

“Our Ye family has some demon beast cores,” Ye Wuyue said immediately.

Night Wind shook his head and said, "Ordinary demon beast cores won't do, we need... So they really have arrived."

As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, a dark shadow appeared in the air.

Moreover, the dark shadow grew larger and larger, almost covering the entire sky.

The next moment, one after another, scarlet eyes opened.

This horrific scene left everyone present utterly shaken!

"What...what kind of monster is this?"

"Eighth rank? Or ninth rank?"

"My God, who is that man? His weapon crafting has attracted such a powerful monster! We have to run!"

The warriors in the air had no time to think about seizing the magical artifacts; they immediately fled in all directions, wanting to leave this place as soon as possible.

But to their horror, they discovered that they could not escape!

The dark shadows that appeared in the air seemed to form a special domain, isolating this place from the outside world. They were like birds trapped in a cage, unable to fly out!

"This is really the end!"

"I'm going to die!"

Just moments ago, these martial artists were eyeing the spiritual artifacts that Ye Feng had forged, but now that this demonic beast has appeared, they are terrified and start crying for their parents.

How pathetic and laughable!

Ye Wuyue also felt a heavy pressure coming from above. She, Ye Xinlian, Ye Xinlan, and Ye Xinmei landed on the ground and gathered around Ye Feng.

Yu Baiyi was the same.

They were all intelligent people, and of course they knew that in this situation, only the Night Wind could solve the problem and protect them!

"Mr. Ye, was this within your expectations?" Ye Wuyue asked.

"Um."

Ye Feng smiled and said, "I've been thinking about a question before: since the spatial rift between our world and the Heavenly Desolate World has existed for so long, have any ninth-grade or even tenth-grade Great Perfection demonic beasts actually come through the spatial rift?"

“High-grade demonic beasts are different from low- and mid-grade demonic beasts. Although low- and mid-grade demonic beasts are much smarter than wild animals, they still cannot control their instincts. As soon as they appear, they will wreak havoc and hunt humans. Therefore, we often discover them very quickly.”

"But the level of intelligence of eighth-grade, ninth-grade, and even tenth-grade perfect demon beasts is almost indistinguishable from that of humans, and may even be higher."

"Moreover, even if high-grade demonic beasts hunt humans, they will not gain any benefit."

"So, based on my judgment, even if there are eighth, ninth, or tenth-grade demonic beasts that come to our world through spatial rifts, they will definitely hide themselves instead of causing widespread destruction like low- to mid-grade demonic beasts."

"However, when a high-grade spiritual artifact appears, it will most likely attract high-grade demonic beasts."

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Ye Wuyue and Yu Baiyi suddenly understood.

"Just you wait and see, this monster is about to die."

As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he flew into the air.

brush!

Within the shadows as dark as night, countless crimson eyes turned in unison, all looking toward the night wind.

The next moment, a sky full of red light shone on the night wind!

Yu Baiyi and Ye Wuyue were pale, while Ye Xinlian, Ye Xinlan, and Ye Xinmei were trembling with fear.

They had already sensed an astonishing fluctuation of true energy from the crimson light that filled the sky.

If this attack hadn't been blocked by the night wind, but instead landed on the Ye family, it would probably have been no less than a small-yield nuclear weapon exploding in the Ye family!

"His first move was a killing blow?"

"High-grade demonic beasts are indeed much smarter than mid- and low-grade demonic beasts. They know that going all out will not give their opponents a chance to breathe."

Night Wind chuckled as a longsword crackling with lightning appeared before him.

It is indeed the magic weapon, Thunderclap!

The lightning wrapped around the thunderbolt was blue and white, but the moment the night wind grasped the thunderbolt, the leaping arc of electricity instantly expanded and turned into five colors: gold, green, blue, red, and brown!

A blinding burst of five-colored lightning suddenly erupted, and nine sword lights pierced through the heavens and earth to meet the crimson light filling the sky.

"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword!"

A sudden roar from the night wind echoed across the sky!

The nine consecutive sword lights not only dispersed the red light filling the sky, but also tore open a huge rift in the dark curtain that blotted out the sun.

A silent wail came from the sky, but Ye Feng immediately cast a barrier, blocking out all the monster's screams.

If the night wind hadn't been blowing, the screams of this monster alone would have been enough to kill most of the population of Minle City!

The overwhelming black shadows completely disappeared.

One sword!

Ye Feng killed the monster with a single sword strike!

A round bead floated down from the sky and fell to the ground.

But Ye Feng waved his hand, and the bead flew into Ye Feng's hand.

The bead was light black, with nine demonic patterns rising and falling within it.

Ninth-grade demon beast inner core!

In other words, the demonic beast that was attracted by the night wind's weapon-refining was a ninth-grade demonic beast!
