"Ye Xingchen, please stop pointing fingers from your moral high ground, okay?" Chen Roujin sneered, "The outcome is still uncertain. Today, I'll show you what I'm capable of."
“My children, go, these two are cultivators, drain their blood and their brains, and you will grow faster.”
Chen Roujin spread her arms and pointed at Ye Xingchen and Zhang Shihao.
In an instant, black mist rose up, and with a whoosh, the surroundings were shrouded in a thick black aura, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face.
Ye Xingchen grabbed with his right hand, and Chixiao appeared in his hand.
The sword light on the crimson sky suddenly shone, illuminating the area three feet away.
Zhang Shih-hao comes from a prestigious family, so his weapons are naturally of high quality.
This guy casually pulled out a jade ruler, which was a magical artifact called the Sky-Sweeping Ruler.
Immediately afterwards, he bent his left hand, and three beams of spiritual light appeared, illuminating the surrounding area.
However, Chen Roujin had mastered the Ghost Mother Technique and was in a state of arrogance. She exerted all her strength to release her evil aura.
Moreover, her malevolent aura actually formed a small world in front of the two of them.
Accompanied by the sounds of a baby crying and laughing, three infant spirits suddenly appeared.
The infant spirit had solidified into a physical form, its ghastly green color appearing quite terrifying.
Three streaks of green light arrived beside the two in an instant. Ye Xingchen waved his right hand, let out a deep shout, and slashed forward with the Crimson Cloud sword in his hand.
The sword light on Chixiao's blade flickered, and with a single strike, it forced back three infant spirits.
The three infant spirits were terrified of the aura emanating from the Crimson Sky Sword. Instead of confronting Ye Xingchen directly, they transformed into countless forms and wandered around Ye Xingchen and Zhang Shihao.
Zhang Shih-hao's strength is far inferior. Although his family has a tradition of exorcising ghosts and demons, this is the Three-Child Ghost Mother, which no one has been able to cultivate for hundreds of years.
Under the attack of the three green lights, he gradually became exhausted. Suddenly, a green light appeared, and then a ghostly face of an infant appeared in front of him.
Zhang Shih-hao was startled and swung his Sky-Sweeping Ruler out one foot at a time, attempting to repel the ghost infant.
But these ghost infants were incredibly cunning; Zhang Shih-hao swung his sword a foot wide, and they easily dodged it.
Then, with a whoosh, he was knocked to the ground by the ghost infants. Accompanied by a piercing scream and laughter, three ghost infants suddenly pounced on him and opened their mouths to bite.
At the critical moment, Ye Xingchen arrived in time and struck with his sword, injuring one of the ghost infants. The remaining two were frightened and scattered to the sides.
"Damn, that was amazing." Zhang Shihao rolled over to his feet, still shaken.
"Ye Xingchen, weren't you so powerful? Now you seem to be nothing special. I've only been cultivating for a few months, and I've managed to make you look so pathetic. Give me some time, what's the difference between killing you and killing an ant?" Chen Roujin's shrill laughter came from the darkness.
"You've had enough of this long." Ye Xingchen sneered, "Your domain won't last five minutes, will it? Stubborn people always get beaten up."
"I'm more convinced that you wouldn't last five minutes in my Ghost Realm either," Chen Roujin sneered.
"Really? Then let's give it a try." Ye Xingchen brandished the Crimson Cloud sword and leaped into the air.
A burst of sword light erupted from Chixiao, sweeping out in all directions like a hurricane.
Amidst the sword light, accompanied by three screams, two of the infant spirits vanished instantly, while the last one, wounded, transformed into a cloud of green mist and hid inside Chen Roujin's body, never daring to emerge again.
*Pfft...* Chen Roujin was struck by the backlash of the evil energy and flew more than ten meters away, crashing into the wall with a thud, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Just as she remembered, a figure flashed by, and Ye Xingchen had already rushed to her side.
Chi Xiao was only centimeters away from her head. If she dared to make any further moves, Ye Xingchen could kill her immediately.
"To be honest, your talent is not bad, but your cultivation is far from sufficient." Ye Xingchen said coldly, "You think you are invincible just because you have just mastered a little power? How naive you are."
"Ye Xingchen, Ye Xingchen..." Chen Roujin's eyes were filled with hatred as she screamed, "You killed my son, I'll take your life..."
She leaped up, her fingernails extending out, aimed directly at Ye Xingchen's face.
But Ye Xingchen kicked her again, sending her flying more than ten meters away.
This time, she collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up again.
"Look at yourself now, are you even human?" Ye Xingchen frowned slightly. "Didn't I promise your mother I'd spare your life? Do you really think you're still alive?"
"Then kill me! Why don't you kill me? Is it because you promised Bai Yingyun you would spare my life?" Chen Roujin laughed bitterly, like a madwoman: "I don't need her to save me."
“Killing you is only a matter of time, but I promised your mother I would give you a chance.” Ye Xingchen pointed the Crimson Sky Sword at Chen Roujin: “I will not kill you today, but I will cripple your cultivation, cut off your hands and feet, and make you a cripple so that you will never be able to harm anyone again.”
"You might as well just kill me." Chen Roujin was both shocked and furious: "You promised my mother..."
"I promised her I'd let you go this time, but I never said I wouldn't," Ye Xingchen said coldly. "Besides, your mother also said that if you don't repent, I'll just kill you."
"The grudge between you and Chen Roujin is irreconcilable, but if I don't tolerate you today, you will harm others in the future. You'd better watch yourself."
Ye Xingchen swung the Crimson Cloud sword, intending to break her arms and legs.
However, at that moment, a sudden gust of cold wind arose.
Immediately afterwards, several green lights rose up from behind Ye Xingchen. Amidst the eerie wind and malevolent energy, these green lights suddenly condensed into three skeletons, which lunged at Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen's sword ultimately failed to strike. He turned around, and Chixiao blocked forward, sword energy whistling up, instantly turning the three skeletons into dust.
The sword also pierced through the malevolent aura behind him.
In that moment of distraction, Chen Roujin had already disappeared.
"Is the person who came the leader of the Yin family?" Ye Xingchen asked loudly.
Amidst the murderous aura, an aged voice responded: "That's right, it is I, Ye Xingchen. You killed two of my brothers. I'll remember this debt, and one day I will collect it with interest."
"Fine, I'll wait. I'm afraid you won't have that chance." Ye Xingchen sneered.
"The green hills remain unchanged, the clear waters flow on forever, just you wait and see." The black mist quickly receded, and Boss Yin and Chen Roujin disappeared without a trace.
"You ran pretty fast." The Crimson Cloud in Ye Xingchen's hand slowly disappeared. He helped Zhang Shihao, who was lying on the ground, to his feet. "How are you feeling?"
“It’s alright, hey, this is the first time I’ve seen such a powerful figure from the evil sect.” Zhang Shihao straightened up and let out a long sigh of relief: “Now the truth is out, your feeling was right, that evil aura was aimed at you.”
