Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

However, facing an assault as terrifying and vast as a mighty river, Ling Yunting was ultimately overwhelmed. The Spiritual Power surging around his body dissipated completely, and he was obliterated before he could even scream.

In a flash, the sky cleared. The Black Tiger Heaven-Sealing Array that had enveloped the martial arts arena was shattered by Ye Chen, and every member of the Black Tiger Gang collapsed to the ground, wounded.

"You… who in the world are you?"

Not far away, Liu Moxia, the Second Elder of the Black Tiger Gang, stared at Ye Chen in utter terror, his entire body trembling uncontrollably as if he were looking at a hideous, fearsome demon.

"My name is Ye Chen. I am the Sect Leader of the Demon Sect," Ye Chen said indifferently.

"Ye Chen… Ye Chen?! You're Ye Chen?!"

Liu Moxia was stunned for a moment. Then, as if he had just realized something, he suddenly let out a bewildered roar.

The other members of the Black Tiger Gang also looked over, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

'So, he's Ye Chen!'

A wave of sharp gasps suddenly swept across the field.

Everyone finally realized that the young man before them—the one who had single-handedly suppressed all the members of the Black Tiger Gang with his heaven-defying combat power—was none other than the renowned Ye Chen of Lei Province!

'Ye Chen… No wonder he was so confident, daring to challenge the Black Tiger Gang.'

Han Qinglu watched the scene unfold, unable to suppress a wry smile.

'Just a moment ago, I was thinking I should step in and help,' she thought. 'I can't believe how unnecessary that was.'

'If Ye Chen could sweep through so many powerful factions from beyond the borders in a place like Dragon Prison Cave, how could he possibly have trouble with the mere Black Tiger Gang?'

'The only thing I don't understand is how Ye Chen can possess such immense combat power when he's only at the Spirit Sea Realm.'

"Ye Chen…" Hong Zhi stared blankly for a moment, then glanced down with a hint of pity at the still-unconscious Li Changhe.

'To have provoked such a ruthless man and made it out alive… Li Changhe is already incredibly lucky.'

'He's Ye Chen? The one who's supposed to be an even greater prodigy than the geniuses from the major factions in the eastern dynasty?'

Tang Huagui's face went pale as he finally realized what a foolish mistake he had made.

'I actually dared to challenge Ye Chen? That was just asking to die!'

Even though he was a once-in-a-century genius of the Black Tiger Gang and had always been extremely confident in his own abilities, he was clearly far inferior when compared to a prodigy like Ye Chen of Lei Province.

On the high platform, Nie Kun was frozen like a statue, momentarily at a loss for words.

'Who could have imagined that such a monstrous prodigy had made his way into Kunlun City?'

On the field, Ye Chen's gaze swept over the surrounding members of the Black Tiger Gang.

They lay scattered on the ground, wailing in agony, clearly having lost all strength to fight him.

But even if they had been uninjured, they were now scared witless. The very thought of resisting Ye Chen was beyond them.

After all, the gap in power between them was simply too vast.

"I've answered your question."

"Now, it's time to send you on your way."

Ye Chen glanced at Liu Moxia, who was not far off, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Wait!"

Hearing this, the expressions of the Black Tiger Gang members changed drastically, and Liu Moxia hastily called out to stop Ye Chen.

"You have more to say?" Ye Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Ye… Ye Chen, do you know who else from our Black Tiger Gang has come this time?"

"I might as well tell you, the Grand Elder isn't the strongest one among us! Even if you are Ye Chen, if you really go up against our Black Tiger Gang, you'll…"

WHOOSH!

Ye Chen couldn't be bothered to listen to Liu Moxia's nonsense. He sent a streak of Sword Qi flashing past, severing the man's head.

"Always with the same boring threats."

Ye Chen shook his head. Before the terrified eyes of the remaining Black Tiger Gang members, he flicked his finger. Streaks of Sword Qi shot out, striking them all dead.

At this point, of all the Black Tiger Gang members present, only Tang Huagui remained alive.

Looking at the ground littered with corpses, everyone felt a chill run down their spines, stunned by Ye Chen's ruthless methods.

But a moment later, a roar of cheers erupted, drowning out the previous gasps of shock.

After all, the men who had just died were the worst of the worst!

They had committed so many heinous crimes that they should have faced judgment long ago!

So, after the initial shock of watching Ye Chen kill them all, the crowd felt a wave of elation.

Just then, Ye Chen's gaze suddenly fell upon Tang Huagui on the high platform.

WHOOSH!

Without a moment's hesitation, Tang Huagui's figure blurred as he fled into the distance. His speed was so astonishing that it startled many of the onlookers.

But no matter how fast he was, how could he possibly outrun Ye Chen's Sword Qi?

Seeing that Ye Chen was about to act, Nie Kun shot up from his seat on the high platform and yelled, "Stop!"

"Young Friend Ye, you mustn't! You absolutely mustn't!"

He strode forward, his face etched with panic, but Ye Chen merely gave him an indifferent glance. Without the slightest pause, he flicked his finger again, and another razor-sharp beam of Sword Qi shot out!

As if sensing the lethal threat approaching rapidly from behind, Tang Huagui's expression changed drastically. He bit the tip of his tongue, burning his blood essence to give himself a sudden surge of power, and his escape speed increased even more.

At the same time, he summoned a spirit weapon and threw it behind him, hoping to buy himself another precious moment to escape.

However, the gap in their power was simply too immense.

The Sword Qi Ye Chen had casually flicked out cleaved the spirit weapon in two before striking Tang Huagui.

Keep in mind, Tang Huagui had already been seriously injured and was completely unable to fight at his Peak.

Struck by Ye Chen's Sword Qi, his body froze in mid-air before plummeting from the sky like a kite with a snapped string, his life extinguished before he hit the ground.

And with that, every last member of the Black Tiger Gang was dead.

"Good riddance!" Han Qinglu couldn't help but applaud when she saw this.

A buzz of excitement went through the crowd of onlookers.

Only Nie Kun wore a troubled expression. With a heavy sigh, he approached Ye Chen, his gaze incredibly complex.

"What is it?"

"Do you want to fight me, too?"

Ye Chen stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression impassive.

Even though he had just fought a major battle, his clothes were immaculate and his expression was relaxed.

Clearly, he hadn't even used his full strength to annihilate these members of the Black Tiger Gang.

Nie Kun's expression tightened.

'As the City Lord of Kunlun City, when has a junior ever dared to speak to me like this?' he thought. 'Even the leaders of the city's major factions have to walk on eggshells around me.'

He was long accustomed to his high station, but in front of Ye Chen, he didn't dare show the slightest temper.

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. Young Friend Ye, your combat power is astonishing and your talent is unparalleled. How could I possibly dare to make an enemy of you?"

Nie Kun said with a wry smile.
