"Ye Chen, where are you going?"

The sound came from afar and contained spiritual power.

Before you see him, you hear his voice.

This is Gu Jian's voice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's body stiffened abruptly.

It was like being frozen in place, stiff for a full two and a half seconds.

Ye Chen quickly recovered, but he still felt humiliated.

He felt that his reaction just now was like an animal encountering its natural enemy.

Like a mouse encountering a cat!

However, as a chosen one, Ye Chen still maintained sufficient rationality and composure.

He recognized Gu Jian's voice.

But the sound was still far away.

It was only because it contained spiritual energy and had extremely strong penetrating power that it reached him!

Gu Jian himself must still be some distance away from the Earthly Ugly Palace.

"Just as I suspected, it was that bastard Gu Jian who was spying on me."

"He used some means, and it felt like everything was under his gaze. Damn it."

"Currently, I have summoned a Saint-level ninth-level Heavenly Demon. It is extremely powerful, but I still do not have a sure chance of victory against this bastard. It seems that I should avoid confrontation for the time being."

Ye Chen muttered to himself, then turned to Long Jinghong in front of him and said, "Long Jinghong, listen to my command, immediately gather everyone and leave this place."

Long Jinghong was surprised, but still replied, "Yes, Master."

More than a thousand people were quickly assembled.

When Ye Chen said that Gu Jian had arrived, Ye Chen intended to take them away from here.

Everyone was surprised.

Gu Jian actually entered the Nine Heavens Star Palace Secret Realm?

But that was the culprit who killed the Third Prince.

Since he's here, let's just wait for him to arrive and then kill him.

Why retreat?!

Lei Hong, the Thunder Dragon King, already had a lot of opinions about Ye Chen.

At this moment, I became even more annoyed.

He turned to the Second Prince, Long Jinghong, and said, "Second Prince, now that Gu Jian has arrived, why not just kill him? Why retreat?"

As his voice fell, the elders of the Thunder Dragon Clan behind him echoed his sentiments.

One of the elders, who had a dragon horn on his forehead, said, "The Thunder Dragon King is right. Gu Jian is nothing to worry about. With so many of us here, we have nothing to fear from him."

"The existence of our Thunder Dragon lineage alone is enough to kill Gu Jian."

"The one who will lose his life this time will definitely be Gu Jian."

Ye Chen thought to himself, "You guys are a bunch of idiots."

If his senior brother could be killed so easily...

He wouldn't be in such a terrible situation.

Ye Chen didn't want to waste words with them, and said calmly, "The Second Prince and I are definitely leaving. If you want to leave with me, then leave. If you don't want to, that's fine too. That's all I have to say. You'd better take care of yourselves."

Lei Hong, the King of Thunder Dragons, sneered and said, "Since that's the case, then my Thunder Dragon Demon lineage will remain here."

"After we kill Gu Jian, we'll rush over and join the Second Prince."

Ye Chen sensed the disdain in the Thunder Dragon King's words and was extremely annoyed. "Do as you please. Long Jinghong, let's go!"

"Alright, Brother Ye!"

Long Jinghong nodded, then turned to Lei Jiaolongwang and said, "Lei Jiaolongwang, since that's the case, it wouldn't be bad for you to stay and test their strength."

"If you are no match for them, do not linger in battle. If you can kill them, kill them on the spot."

"Second Prince, we understand."

Long Leihong spoke calmly, his face full of arrogance.

Ye Chen didn't want to waste words with him.

In his view, as long as he summoned more celestial demons from the Immortal Demon Tower, he would be invincible.

There is no need to take the risk.

Since Long Leihong wants to die, then let him die!

Ye Chen and Long Jinghong then left with a total of over a thousand people.

Five hundred people remained in the Earthly Ugly Palace.

They were all from the Lei Jiaolong Demon lineage, as well as Long Leihong's subordinates.

Long Leihong was initially filled with awe and respect for Ye Chen because of his status as a ninth-generation demon sealer.

However, at this moment, he felt only contempt.

Of course, the reason he stayed was not to prove that Ye Chen was a cowardly good-for-nothing.

He had a reason in his heart to kill Gu Jian.

Lei Jiao Demon Dragon King Long Lei Hong, along with his men, waited at the Earthly Ugly Palace.

A moment later.

He saw six figures approaching from afar, stepping on colorful starlight.

The man walking in front had silver hair like frost, handsome features, and an extraordinary demeanor.

He was surrounded by four women.

They were either alluring or bewitching, but each one was absolutely stunning.

Besides, there was a small, fiery red fox, nimbly running ahead.

Upon seeing this, Long Leihong was taken aback.

I thought that the person Ye Chen was wary of was some kind of extraordinary being.

But the person in front of me.

They are all so young.

Furthermore, the aura emanating from them was not terrifying.

At least for someone like him, a Saint-level ninth-level expert.

He thought of the five powerful figures from the Thunder Dragon Demon Clan behind him.

Long Leihong's heart was filled with invincible confidence.

As Gu Jian approached.

Looking down at him, Long Leihong asked, "Are you Gu Jian?"

Gu Jian raised his eyes and looked ahead at the being radiating lightning, and said calmly, "Indeed, I am Gu Jian. You appear to be the king of the Demon Dragon Kingdom?"

Long Leihong said coldly, "That's right, I am the Thunder Dragon King."

Gu Jian scoffed, "A mere jiaolong (蛟龙) dares to call itself a dragon?"

Upon hearing this, Long Leihong's face showed anger.

Before he could even speak, a powerful member of the Thunder Dragon Demon Clan stepped forward and rebuked Gu Jian, saying, "Gu Jian, how dare you be so insolent and rude!"

Gu Jian smiled faintly and said, "It's not that I'm being rude, but that you are. A bunch of people who are about to die are still barking wildly in front of me."

Upon hearing Gu Jian's words, the powerful members of the Flood Dragon Demon Clan showed an expression of disbelief.

I have never seen such an arrogant person.

This Gu Jian is so arrogant.

Gu Jian scanned the main hall of the Earthly Ugly Palace with his divine sense, then looked at the Thunder Dragon King and asked, "Where is Ye Chen? Isn't he with you?"

Upon hearing Gu Jian mention Ye Chen, Long Leihong's face revealed a look of disdain.

He said, "Ye Chen was with me all along, but he ran away when he heard you were coming. A dignified ninth-generation demon-sealing being so cowardly."

Gu Jian was surprised, then smiled and said, "You're right, he is indeed afraid of death. But he didn't do anything wrong. After all, seeing me meant certain death."

Thunder Dragon King narrowed his eyes, the person before him once again displaying his arrogance.

He looked at Gu Jian and said, "Gu Jian, I heard that you are Ye Chen's senior brother. However, in my opinion, although you are from the same sect, you are very different from him."

Gu Jian asked with a smile, "How is it different?"

Thunder Dragon King said, "You are more confident than him; this is what a young prodigy should look like."

Gu Jian was surprised that the Thunder Dragon King even praised him.

However, Gu Jian noticed that his eyes were full of murderous intent.

Then, the Thunder Dragon King said, "Gu Jian, I left many powerful warriors from the Demon Dragon Kingdom in Jiugong Village."

"Now that you're in, are all those people dead?"
