Chapter: 110

Silence engulfed the capital of the Blue Wind Empire, with a stalemate appearing between the two pirates.

As Yuechan had said, with her and Qingyue present, it was impossible for Duanhun and his party to do anything to them. They only had a single Emperor Profound Realm participant, while three were present on the other side.

And no matter how strong Wuyi was, it was impossible for him to fight three Emperor Profound Realm participants, with one of them being at the same level as him, at the same time.

"Are you sure you want to do this, Fairy Chu? Even if you say that this is your personal move, it would still implicate Asgard negatively. We are here on the order of the Sacred Grounds... you opposing us is the same as opposing the Sacred Grounds. This would result in the total destruction of Asgard!"

"There is no point in this useless banter," Yuechan replied monotonously, staring at Duanhun antiseptically. "I have given you the warning. If you do not retreat this instant, then don't blame us for being impolite."

Duanhun gritted his teeth in frustration. He glared at Yuechan and Qingyue with a murderous gaze, wanting nothing but to kill both of them, but his meager power stopped him from making any moves.

Wuyi, on the other hand, had a calm expression plastered over his face. He moved closer to Duanhun and softly whispered into his ear.

"... It cannot be helped. I think you should call the seniors to come out and help us."

Duanhun took a deep breath and sighed loudly.

They had just lost the future of their sect and a great elder. In such a situation, he did not want to lose any more forces or this might be the end of their sect.

Thinking this, he closed his eyes before opening them, confidence returning back within them.

"Very well. Do not regret your decision today."

"I would not."

"Humph." Duanhun snorted before sending a profound transmission back to his ancestors.

Suddenly, the air stifled and became dry. The temperature, which had dropped due to the presence of Qingyue and Yuechan, instantly rose linearly, making it hard for people to breathe normally.

"Youngsters will surpass us in no time..." An old voice came from the sky before two old men appeared there. Both wore crimson robes as they stood in the sky, staring down at everyone with impossible and arrogant gazes.

"Fen Yijue, Fen Ziya..." Yuechan's eyes narrowed. Still, no fear was present on her face as she stared back at the two old men with the same fearless and piercing gaze.

"This matter has nothing to do with your sect. We politely ask you to retreat back, Fairy Chu, Fairy Xia. If you do so, we will not pursue this matter any further."

"And if I don't want to?"

"Then we can only act shamelessly to teach you a lesson instead of your seniors."

"Hahahaha..." Cang Yue suddenly giggled, causing everyone's bodies to unconsciously relax at her melodic voice. She looked at the two flying old men with a fearless smile and loudly said, "Forgive me, but what can two seniors teach Sister Yuechan? How to stab the hand that fed you? I must say, you two seem way too proud to be hound dogs for sacred grounds. It's actually nauseating."

Fen Jiyue and Fen Ziya narrowed their gaze down at Cang Yue with killing intent before Jiyue snorted.

"So be it. Die then!"

Profound energy suddenly threw into chaos, and a long crimson blade appeared within Fen Jiyue's hand. He glared down at everyone before he loudly decreed, his voice booming with authority and power.

"For colluding with the demon and destroying Heavenly Sword Villa, bringing chaos and destruction to the Blue Wind Empire, I will enact justice in the place of heaven today—KHA!"

"Boom...!!!"

The space vibrated, a straight line connecting the heavens and the earth. Fen Jiyue was launched straight to the ground with enough force to produce earthquakes in the near tens of miles area!

Silence instantly engulfed the capital before a joyful sound broke it.

"I am not late to the party, am I?"

"Brother Yun!" Cang Yue loudly shouted, her, Qingyue, and Yuechan's faces brightening instantly.

"Hahaha, sorry, I am late." Sheepishly rubbing the back of his head, Yun Che smiled. "On the bright side, the hero always arrives late."

He looked at Ziya standing beside him and smirked.

"Do you not think so too, old man? Was I heroic enough?"

"... You are Yun Che?" Ziya narrowed his gaze at Yun Che before snorting. "Only Sky Profound Realm—"

"—Oops, stop. Before you say any unbelievably stupid shit, I just bitch-slapped your elder down to the ground. He was supposed to be at the Fourth Level of the Emperor Profound Realm."

"A sneak attack! You won't be successful next time!"

"But of course... You guys are way too dumb to understand that." Yun Che sighed loudly and massaged his forehead. He raised his head and looked down at Ziya, taunting him. "Alright, one by one or all together? Choose fast 'cause I ain't got time for this shit."

"Boom..." The ground exploded with a pillar of purple fire as Yijue appeared within it. Like a cold-ass anime protagonist, his beard, hair, and robes danced wildly within the purple pillar of fire, making Yun Che blow a loud whistle.

"Shoo~, that's cold. Maybe I should also focus more on the aesthetic side of techniques."

Why call it aesthetic? Because Yun Che could not feel even slightly hot from the pillar of fire that burned the ground to molten lava around the old man; compared to [Blue Flames], it felt like a soft fart.

"You dare sneak attack me, demon's spawn!" The purple pillar of fire intensified with the anger and murderous shout of the old man, clearly affected by his emotions. "Today I, Fen Yijue, shall enact justice in the place of the world upon you!"

"Right..." Yun Che thought people in this world really had left common sense, no, any kind of sense evident by the fact that they still thought they could capture or even defeat him. In a sense, Yun Che found it quite funny. "Oh well, the end result is still going to be the same anyways."

Yun Che raised his hand and opened it, pointing it towards the purple pillar of fire. Condescendingly staring down at it, his eyes gave an intense golden glow, then he closed it.

Space seemed to shift and an invisible hand seemed to grip the purple pillar of fire, or at least that's what people saw as the purple pillar of fire with a cool old man inside vanished into thin air.

"What the—?!"

Silence engulfed the capital instantly. Everyone was staring at the vanished purple pillar of fire and the old man inside in shocked and silly states. Their minds tried to comprehend what had just transpired in front of their eyes, yet the accumulated knowledge of their lifetime could not explain the weird phenomenon in front of them.

Unimpressed, as if what he had done was not worth anything in his eyes, his still shimmering golden irises turned towards petrified Ziya as his lips curled up into a smile.

"You're next, old man."

Terror crawled down Ziya's spine. Without uttering even a single word, his body turned into a trail of purple flames and vanished on the horizon! The old man did not even care about his descendant and decided to make a run for his life instead!

"Smart, smarter than the cool old man from before." Yun Che chuckled and raised his hand, a small arrow of ice forming there. It released condensed chilling fog that seemed to freeze even the profound energy around it. "But I am not letting anyone leave this place alive today."

His voice fell, and the crystal blue arrow above his palm vanished, leaving behind an equally golden trail of chilling white fog.

The next second, the purple flames one could see from a distance vanished; a clear sign that its owner had met his end.

Turning his gaze away, Yun Che looked back at Duanhun and Wuyi, his lost smirk returning to his face.

"Well then, one by one or all at once?"

The next few minutes were something that people present within the capital would never be able to forget as they witnessed how the strongest cultivators of their empire were treated as nothing but toddlers, as Yun Che played with their lives as if they meant nothing in his eyes.
