Three encounters

"Ye Yuntian hoped that through the long whistle, he could attract people from the other two major families, which would help alleviate the danger.

Ye Ming and Ye Ling were a bit nervous, but the most afraid one was Ye Long. After all, he was only fifteen years old and had the lowest cultivation level. At this moment, he was so nervous that he couldn't even speak.

Only Ye Dong smiled slightly and then said to the other three, "I'll go too!"

Following closely behind Ye Yuntian, Ye Dong also rushed out.

Ye Dong's actions inadvertently bolstered Ye Ming and Ye Ling's courage. Ye Ming even cursed himself inwardly, feeling ashamed that even his younger brother wasn't afraid, while he, at the age of twenty, was still so fearful. With a self-mocking shake of his head, he said to Ye Ling, "Second sister, take care of Long'er!"

Watching as the three members of the Ye family went to confront the Iron Arm Ape, Ye Ling and Ye Long also prepared themselves, ready to strike at any moment.

Leading the charge, Ye Yuntian rushed to the side of the Iron Arm Ape. With arms wide open, sharp qi burst from both palms, condensing into two sharp blade shadows, swiftly enclosing two Iron Arm Apes within his attack range.

Although the Iron Arm Apes had high defense, Ye Yuntian was a master with a nine-fold spiritual seal. His spiritual energy could materialize and take various forms. Therefore, the blade shadows he condensed were just as sharp as ordinary swords.

"Swoosh, swoosh!" In two strikes, two blood arrows were drawn, injuring two Iron Arm Apes!

Seeing the might of their elder, Ye Dong's heart couldn't help but fill with a sense of valor. However, instead of using his index finger, he clenched his fist, and a white light burst from it, seeming to possess tremendous force, as he fiercely struck one of the Iron Arm Apes.

Strangely, when faced with Ye Dong's attack, the Iron Arm Ape didn't defend. Instead, it turned and fled!

Ye Dong was slightly surprised, but without hesitation, he chased after the fleeing Iron Arm Ape!

When Ye Yuntian quickly dispatched the two Iron Arm Apes, he raised his head and was startled to find that Ye Dong was nowhere to be seen!

Ye Yuntian's expression changed once again!

Ye Dong didn't know how far he had run, but when the Iron Arm Ape in front stopped, he realized that he and the other members of the Ye family had already dispersed. He might have even entered the depths of the Heaven Break Forest.

However, Ye Dong remained calm. In his mind, he had already experienced death once, so there was nothing to make him panic or fear.

At this moment, he calmly observed the Iron Arm Ape in front of him, which had inexplicably led him on a wild chase.

The Iron Arm Ape seemed to sense that the human in front of it wasn't afraid, so it didn't immediately attack. Instead, it circled around Ye Dong, maintaining a distance of two meters, and began to leisurely pace.

It must be said that the Iron Arm Ape was quite intelligent. Its seemingly meaningless circling often created psychological pressure on opponents. And once the opponent couldn't bear this pressure, it would be the time for its attack.

Unfortunately for it, today it encountered Ye Dong.

Ye Dong stood still without moving. Even when the Iron Arm Ape circled behind him, he didn't turn around, as if he knew the creature wouldn't attack him from behind.

After circling Ye Dong five times, the Iron Arm Ape felt puzzled. This human seemed fragile, but how could he withstand such pressure? Moreover, he gave off a dangerous feeling?

Finally, the Iron Arm Ape lost patience. Its powerful limbs swiftly moved, and it quickly came to Ye Dong's front, raising one forearm and smashing it down fiercely.

However, this time the Iron Arm Ape miscalculated because Ye Dong had no intention of confronting it head-on again.

Ye Dong exhaled loudly, and a faint white light emanated from his clenched right hand, striking the Iron Arm Ape's chest and abdomen.

"Boom!"

The Iron Arm Ape let out a roar mixed with pain, and its body quickly retreated several meters. It rolled on the ground, revealing a fist-sized wound on its chest, from which blood gushed out. Though not fatal, it was close to death.

"After clashing head-on for the first time, let's call it a draw. The second time, I repelled you with the spiritual energy of my six-fold spiritual seal. The third time, I'll use the spiritual energy of my seven-fold spiritual seal!"

Speaking as if he were facing a human opponent, Ye Dong continued to talk while silently circulating his spiritual energy. The white light on his right hand suddenly swelled to over a foot in size.

Before the Iron Arm Ape could react, the burst of white light from Ye Dong's hand had already left his fist, turning into a white light streaking towards the Iron Arm Ape.

"Bang!"

The white light hit the Iron Arm Ape's chest, exactly where it had been previously injured, causing the creature to fly backward more than two meters. As it crashed to the ground, a fist-sized wound appeared on its chest, from which blood flowed incessantly. Though not dead, it was not far from it.
