Even if they knew he was using the Wuxi Sword, so what? He did not take such a group seriously at all!
“Sha Spirit Practitioners excel at manipulating primordial spirits! Everyone protect your own primordial spirits, retreat immediately if you sense anything abnormal!” a disciple shouted, staring at Ye Chu with extreme caution. Sha Spirit Practitioners were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Those who could become one possessed extraordinary qualities. This was also the first time they had encountered a Sha Spirit Practitioner!
“I will not say this twice. You are limited to half an hour to all get off Red Iron Mountain. Additionally, bring the property maps you prepared to hand over to us. Then you may keep your lives!”
Ye Chu’s voice was not loud, yet it excited Zhu Fengcheng and the others to the extreme. What was arrogance? What was dominance? At this moment, Ye Chu was performing it for them!
It was just like a man walking into someone’s house and saying to their clan members, “I’ve taken a fancy to your daughter. Hand her over to warm my bed. Otherwise, I’ll rape and kill her, and exterminate your entire clan.”
All along, they had been suppressed and aggrieved under the Sanyuan Sect. Only now did they truly feel proud and elated.
Even that youth from the Sanyuan Sect back then had not been as direct or as domineering in his insults to them as Ye Chu was now.
However, after their excitement, they could not help but worry. Their hearts were indeed relieved. But the problem was, the Sanyuan Sect’s strength could not be underestimated. These disciples could not be considered the most elite.
Sure enough, whatever they worried about came to pass. From the high mountain of the mine, a group of disciples slowly walked down. This group was not large, only about twenty or so, yet each one had actually reached the Xuan Ming Realm.
This made Zhu Fengcheng and the others’ hearts ache with shock. The Xuan Ming Realm cultivators they had brought this time numbered only about ten or so, a gap of nearly half compared to the other side. And what frightened Zhu Fengcheng the most was that before this group of disciples, he saw that youth.
Ye Chu narrowed his eyes watching the group walking down. This group was indeed all powerful. Ye Chu was rather surprised by the force supporting the Sanyuan Sect. Being able to so easily cultivate so many Xuan Ming Realm cultivators, it certainly would not be simple. It might not be much weaker than Qingmi Mountain.
“Zhu Fengcheng! This young master told you to hand over half your properties. I never expected you would dare to come here first to cause trouble. Do you truly think I won’t kill you?” The youth looked at Zhu Fengcheng, a few traces of a smile at the corner of his mouth, but the bone-chilling intent was not concealed in the slightest, directly pressing down upon Zhu Fengcheng.
Zhu Fengcheng’s face changed drastically. He wanted to resist, but saw Ye Chu very naturally step before him. The imposing momentum fell upon Ye Chu, not raising the slightest ripple. “Things must be done one at a time. I just agreed with you that within half an hour you will hand over half the property maps. Then we can talk about other matters.”
Seeing this young man before him block his momentum so effortlessly, the youth’s eyes suddenly narrowed, staring straight at Ye Chu. “No wonder you dared to come cause trouble. So you found someone to back you up. But do you think he can hold up the scene? Don’t end up losing more than you gain and die here!”
Ye Chu did not speak, smiling as he looked at the youth and the group of Xuan Ming Realm cultivators behind him.
“A quarter of the half hour has already passed!” Ye Chu said, smiling at the other side. “I hope you hurry up and discuss which half to hand over so your losses will be smaller.”
This contemptuous attitude made a cultivator behind the youth extremely dissatisfied. He stepped out, glaring at Ye Chu and shouting, “This is our territory. The young master doesn’t need to act. We can grind a King to death with numbers alone. What kind of thing are you… ah…”
Before the other side finished speaking, he suddenly screamed. His voice halted abruptly, falling straight to the ground, his eyes wide open, unwilling to close.
This scene made the youth and his group’s faces change drastically. Only then did a disciple remind him, “Young master, be careful! The other side is a Sha Spirit Practitioner!”
The group of cultivators gasped, looking at Ye Chu with extreme apprehension. Even if an Xuan Ming Realm cultivator was ambushed, killing them would still be difficult. Yet the other side had directly annihilated him. This proved the other side was an extremely powerful Sha Spirit Practitioner.
“This young master hates people who chatter the most!” Ye Chu swept his gaze over the corpse on the ground, then smiled at the youth, saying, “You wouldn’t want to follow in his footsteps, would you?”
The youth was surprised by Ye Chu’s identity as a Sha Spirit Practitioner, but then laughed loudly. “You think too highly of yourself. This young master has not only seen Sha Spirit Practitioners before, I’ve even killed one. An upper-grade Xuan Ming Realm Sha Spirit Practitioner died by this young master’s hand. Although this identity of yours makes me somewhat cautious, it is not enough to worry about.”
“Young master is mighty!” Hearing the youth had killed a Sha Spirit Practitioner, the group became excited. Their fear of Ye Chu instantly lessened considerably.
Ye Chu did not speak, just sitting quietly to one side. In his heart, he somewhat regretted not bringing Yang Hui along. If at this moment he had Yang Hui by his side massaging his shoulders, that would be a fine enjoyment.
Ye Chu’s indifference annoyed the youth, making him frown. He stared at Ye Chu and said, “Since you smashed the mountain gate, then you will exchange ten properties for it. The deadline is today. If you can’t produce them, this young master will commence a massacre, letting you understand who has the final say in this area.”
“With my senior brother here, it is not yet your turn for a third-rate force like the Sanyuan Sect to act arrogantly.” Zhu Fengcheng shouted, unwilling to weaken his own momentum.
“Scram!” The youth shouted. The sound waves vibrated out, shooting straight toward Zhu Fengcheng. Zhu Fengcheng was unable to resist, directly shaken into retreating two steps, a mouthful of blood spraying out.
The youth’s dominance was fully revealed at this moment. Ye Chu’s brows also rose, unable to resist looking at the other side. Zhu Fengcheng’s strength was considered outstanding among his peers. Facing ordinary ninth-level Xuan Ming Realm cultivators, he won more often than he lost. Yet under the other side’s shout, he was directly shaken until he spat blood. This fellow was truly not simple.
However, the other side had hit someone on his side. Ye Chu was not polite either. The Wuxi Sword swept out horizontally, directly shooting toward several disciples on the other side.
Among them, some disciples screamed and fell to the ground dead. Some disciples were prepared and escaped with their lives, but blood poured from their mouths.
“My people. Leave one drop of blood, and I want one life from your side in exchange. Don’t believe me? You can try.” Ye Chu smiled at the youth, his expression still natural.
The youth ground his teeth. Just now he had guessed Ye Chu would retaliate, so he wanted to block Ye Chu’s attack. But he had not expected he still failed to block it, killing several disciples before his very eyes.
The youth took a deep breath, staring at Ye Chu and saying, “You are quite domineering, sir. May I ask your name? This one is Wei Tu!”
“Ye Chu!” Ye Chu looked at the youth and said, “Half an hour is almost up. Have you finished discussing?”
“Brother Ye’s daydream is quite beautiful, but a daydream is ultimately a daydream. It cannot be taken as real!” Wei Tu stared at Ye Chu, his expression cold.
Ye Chu shrugged indifferently. “Whether it’s a dream or not depends on whether you can block me.”
As these words came out, the cultivators behind Wei Tu all looked at Ye Chu in astonishment, their expressions strange.
