Chapter 4157: Chapter 4157: Confronting Xuan Jiyue (Second Update)

In fact, the moment Ji Siqing appeared, Ye Chen had already understood her intention—it was to lure the tiger from the mountain, to help him draw away the assassins guarding this place.

And Ji Siqing was the first to strike at Ye Chen, saying she would start from the weakest and kill them one by one, but that was only an excuse.

That sword of Ji Siqing’s looked terrifying, but when it clashed with Ye Chen, she had already withdrawn her power; it was just for show, so Ye Chen was not injured at all—everything was an act put on by him.

Ye Chen’s disguise was very effective; he successfully fooled the other assassins and stayed behind.

After closing his eyes and performing Breathing Control for a short while, Ye Chen confirmed that Qing Wanji had already taken the other assassins and completely left, then slowly opened his eyes.

"What are you doing?"

Ye Chen looked at the Heaven Grade assassin who was slowly approaching him, who had likewise been heavily wounded by Ji Siqing and stayed here to heal, and spoke with an icy expression.

Because at this moment, this assassin was actually walking toward Ye Chen, with a hideous, mysterious grin hanging on his face.

"Doing what?"

The assassin’s gaze flickered as he let out a sinister laugh. "Haven’t you noticed? The Hall Master and the others have all gone to hunt down that woman. Right now is the best time to seize the Bloodline Origin."

"If I take the Bloodline Origin now, they won’t notice a thing. Even if they do, by the time they rush back, I’ll have already fled to the ends of the earth. No one will be able to find me—not even Qing Wanji!"

"Chen Ye, you’re too stupid. So what if your talent is unparalleled? With that brain of yours, you’re doomed to never become a Supreme Strong Expert!"

The assassin walked toward Ye Chen step by step, his smile growing increasingly arrogant. "Being loyal and devoted to the Dead Spirit Hall is nowhere near as useful as seizing this Bloodline Origin. With the Bloodline Origin, I’m destined to become supreme—even Qing Wanji will be trampled under my feet!"

The assassin grinned wickedly, cold light flickering in his eyes, and in the next instant he suddenly struck, driving a dagger coated in dark green poisons viciously toward Ye Chen.

"Brat, remember what I taught you, and then... go die!"

Though this assassin was badly injured, it was nowhere near as severe as Ye Chen’s feigned wounds. Confident in his own Qiankun Realm Eighth Layer Heaven cultivation, he believed he had Ye Chen completely in his grasp, and was incomparably excited at this moment.

Facing the assassin’s attack, Ye Chen revealed a strange expression; he hadn’t expected this assassin to harbor such wild ambition.

"I’ve remembered what you taught me—but the one who’s going to die is probably you!"

Ye Chen thrust out with his sword; Wujin cold light blossomed, the Destruction Divine Dao erupted, and the vast destructive power shattered the Void, as if it was going to pierce through the All Heavens.

Sensing the terrifying might contained in this sword, the assassin’s eyes showed shock and horror as he stared at Ye Chen in disbelief.

"No, how can you still have such power? You’re not injured?"

The assassin showed a look of sudden realization; in that instant he thought of many things, but unfortunately, he never had the chance to speak them aloud, as he was directly pierced through by the Slaughter Sword.

Endless destructive power flooded the assassin’s body; his form silently disintegrated and turned into Nihility.

With a single sword strike, he slew the opponent. Ye Chen’s gaze coldly withdrew from the Dragonslayer Sword, then he saw the Bloodline Origin floating in midair, tightly bound by strands of Divine Rune Chains, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"I finally got my chance."

Ye Chen knew very well that the time Ji Siqing had bought for him was extremely tight; he could not waste it.

Staring at the Divine Rune Chains, Ye Chen did not hesitate in the slightest. He channeled the Soul Extermination Heart Slaughter Sword and hacked down ferociously.

"Break for me!"

Ye Chen roared, soul power and destructive power merging as a world-shocking cold gleam filled the entire great hall and slashed fiercely onto the Divine Rune Chains.

"Bang!"

In that moment, the Divine Rune Chains were cut apart by Ye Chen, segments falling one after another and dispersing into Spiritual energy.

Yet Ye Chen’s gaze flashed with a hint of shock, because he sensed that after removing the Divine Rune Chains, there was still a terrifying seal on the Bloodline Origin, and this seal also came from Xuan Jiyue.

"Buzz!"

The seal on the Bloodline Origin trembled, and a dreadful, majestic Emperor’s Aura surged out. A hazy figure stepped out from the Bloodline Origin and gradually solidified.

"Xuan Jiyue!"

Ye Chen’s eyes shook; he hadn’t expected Xuan Jiyue to have prepared a backup—she had planted an Avatar on the Bloodline Origin. He had miscalculated.

Looking at Xuan Jiyue and sensing her vast and overwhelming Great Power, Ye Chen’s expression grew increasingly grave; he was no match for her.

"You?"

At this moment, Xuan Jiyue’s Avatar, brimming with violent killing intent, looked at Ye Chen and revealed a hint of surprise. She actually saw through Ye Chen’s disguise at a glance and knew that the person before her was no Chen Ye.

"Ye Chen of the Divine Kingdom..."

Xuan Jiyue narrowed her eyes. The one she had been waiting for was the Samsara Master, yet she hadn’t expected Ye Chen to appear instead.

In that instant, Xuan Jiyue thought of many things—the relationship between Ye Chen and the Samsara Master, what connection lay hidden between them...

But although Xuan Jiyue was surprised and deep in thought, she did not hesitate in the slightest when facing Ye Chen, and struck out directly.

"Since you covet the Bloodline Origin, then no matter what, you must die!"

Xuan Jiyue attacked in an instant. With a wave of her lotus-like white and flawless arm, torrents of vast purple qi swept out, thick Destiny aura surging forth to suppress Ye Chen into an endless nightmare of fate.

Although this was only a briefly condensed Avatar of Xuan Jiyue, the moment she made a move it was a storm of violent offense. Ye Chen’s expression was solemn as the Destruction Divine Dao erupted and he thrust out with his sword.

At the same time, Ye Chen’s body shook, Endless Spiritual Energy surged, and he shouted angrily.

"Dharma Flower Annihilation Heaven, Heavenly Dragon Eight Divine Sounds!"

"Destruction Dao Seal, Soul-devouring Seal!"

The Buddha Light Barrier and Hongmeng Sound Symbol condensed out within the boundless Hongmeng Energy; eight divine dragons roared and surged, bellowing as they charged toward Xuan Jiyue.

Xuan Jiyue’s might was far too terrifying; Ye Chen could not afford to hold back in the slightest and unleashed his full strength at once.

Yet at this moment, faced with the vast Destiny Purple Qi, no matter what methods he used, they were all utterly fragile, shattered like dead wood.

In an instant, the Destiny Purple Qi crushed the divine dragons one by one, shattered the Buddha Light Barrier, and directly smashed down onto Ye Chen’s body.

"Bang!"

Ye Chen was sent flying, blood spurting from his mouth. This time it wasn’t an act—he was truly injured.

"With such means, you also dare scheme for the Bloodline Origin?"

Having dealt Ye Chen a heavy blow, Xuan Jiyue spoke with a sharp gaze, then once again unleashed endless purple qi that swept over.

This ceaseless barrage left Ye Chen no chance to catch his breath. At this moment he hurriedly swung the Slaughter Sword to block the purple qi filling the sky.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The world-annihilating impacts continuously blasted against the walls of the great hall, making the entire hall tremble incessantly, as if it were about to collapse.

Under such collisions, Ye Chen’s blood essence and energy churned violently; he coughed up blood again and again, defending with extreme difficulty.

At this moment, Xuan Jiyue seemed dissatisfied with such a situation. A chill flashed in her eyes as she suddenly extended a finger.

"Xuan Yuan Erasure Light!"

Xuan Jiyue let out a soft shout. Source Qi emerged out of nowhere, and within the vast Source Qi, a terrifying divine light capable of erasing the All Heavens swept forth, piercing toward the space between Ye Chen’s brows.

Seeing this divine light, Ye Chen’s heart tightened—this was actually a Source Technique.
