Chapter 463 - 459: Twenty Assassins
With Xiao Ye’s return, the upper echelons of the Ye Alliance were no longer panicking, but there was still obvious chaos.
There was no choice, as in the East, South, West, and North Four Great States, aside from the Four Great Imperial Martial Artists, a King Martial was one of the top combat powers. Faced with threats from such a powerhouse, even if they had confidence in Xiao Ye, it was difficult to calm down.
This news was tightly controlled by Long Chen, so the fact that King Xingyun had taken action against the Ye Alliance did not fully spread within Ye City. The ordinary martial artists of the Ye Alliance were not informed, thinking it was other forces from the Xingyun Kingdom that had grievances against them, hence they took action and killed the Ye Alliance martial artists who were outside the city.
Therefore, most of the Ye Alliance martial artists were still very calm.
Just as the upper echelons of the Ye Alliance eagerly awaited Xiao Ye to come up with a solution, Xiao Ye unexpectedly announced a retreating closure, forbidding any disturbance, even Long Chen was very puzzled. At such a critical juncture, Xiao Ye actually chose to go into seclusion; could it be he wanted to ascend to King Martial in one fell swoop?
Even with many doubts in their minds, they did not ask. Everyone attended to their duties, ensuring the normal operation of Ye City and no one dared to go outside anymore.
In a secret chamber within the Ye Alliance Mansion, Xiao Ye sat cross-legged, his consciousness sinking into the third layer of the Time Tower, beginning to comprehend the content of the final part of the Void Martial Scroll of the Four Emperors, as for Little White, he had been sent out to prepare for the assassination of the Xingyun Kingdom’s King.
After all, Little White’s strength had already reached the Half-step King Martial, somewhat stronger than him, and with a smaller target, surely he would not catch the attention of the Xingyun Kingdom’s King.
At this moment, Xiao Ye’s demeanor was serene, detached from worldly matters, completely immersed in the majestic Four Emperor Skills.
As Xiao Ye touched upon the last part of the skills, he instantly felt as if he had been placed on top of a stone cliff, a vast expanse of white as if daylight had descended. At the same time, glowing characters emerged from the void, floating around his body, radiating a divine brilliance.
Whoosh!
