Chapter 530 – The Devil Race! (1/2)

Many independent cultivators who were watching from the side revealed expressions of disdain when they saw the old man lend the Old Drunkard a hand. He actually feels that a single ninth rank Exalt Realm expert against a first rank Exalt Realm expert isn’t sufficient, and even lent a hand. That Mortal Emperor, Luo Jun, is quite despicable. Even though they felt contempt towards Luo Jun’s actions, they didn’t dare to voice it out, and they didn’t even dare to spread what had occurred here today. The Exalted Han Empire was a colossus that they couldn’t afford to offend.

Luo Jun’s expression was slightly unsightly. He naturally knew what those independent cultivators were thinking, but he had no other choice. His subordinates would be disappointed in him if he didn’t save the Old Drunkard.

“Haha!” Yang Ye chuckled and said, “Luo Jun, I told you just now to send them all at me. Otherwise, it would truly be a waste of time if you use tactics of attrition and send them against me, one by one.”

“Yang Ye! You’ll die!” Luo Jun spoke coldly.

“Then who will you send next?” asked Yang Ye.

“I’ll do it!” A voice arose from behind Luo Jun.

However, Luo Jun immediately glared at that person, and then he gazed at Yang Ye and said, “Yang Ye, I admit that you’re strong, but that’s useless because regardless of how strong you are, you’re all alone in the end. My subordinate lost today, so I won’t act against you again. Otherwise, others would say that my Exalted Han Empire doesn’t have anyone capable and tries to tire you out using numbers. But you’ll definitely die the next time we fight!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Jun turned around and led his group away.

A solemn expression appeared in Yang Ye’s eyes as he watched Luo Jun’s group leave. There were at least three people in Luo Jun’s group that gave him an extremely dangerous feeling. That old man was one of them. Another one was the black clothed person who was covered in a black cloak and cape. The last person was an old woman standing behind Luo Jun. 16, 20

He sensed a strong feeling of danger from them.

“I never expected that you still came!” Meanwhile, An Biru walked over to Yang Ye, and that black clothed a.s.sa.s.sin was behind her.

Yang Ye glanced at her, and then his figure flashed past her and continued ahead. He had nothing left to say to her after the An Clan had sent a.s.sa.s.sins after him because it was meaningless to say anything. Since they’d become enemies, then it was better to just act completely like enemies. He didn’t want to be enemies with her yet still have a slightly ambiguous relations.h.i.+p with her.

A wisp of a bitter expression appeared in An Biru’s eyes.

Yang Ye had only taken a few steps forward before that black clothed woman appeared in front of him.

“Is there something you need?” Yang Ye tightened his grip on Void Flash. If it weren’t for the fact that he couldn’t defeat her, Yang Ye would have chopped her into pieces by now.

“Perhaps we can all have a chat!” said the woman.

“A chat?” Yang Ye laughed with ridicule and said, “What is there to chat about? I don’t think there’s anything. We’ve been bound to be enemies since your An Clan sent a.s.sa.s.sins after me. I can be very frank and tell you that I’ll annihilate the entire An Clan if it’s possible. Trust me, I’ll definitely be able to accomplish it, and I believe that it wouldn’t be too long from now.”

“Do you think you’re the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor?” The woman revealed killing intent in her eyes.

“The Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor?” Yang Ye chuckled and said, “Do you think I’m inferior to him? Do you believe me when I say that killing you would be like slaughtering a dog if I were to attain the Monarch Realm? Of course, that’s meaningless because I haven’t attained the Monarch Realm. I was just making an a.s.sumption.”

“Perhaps you’ll never be able to attain the Monarch Realm!” said the woman.

“You don’t dare to kill me, right?” said Yang Ye.

The woman fell silent before she said, “It wasn’t Biru who sent those a.s.sa.s.sins after you, it was I. If you want to hate someone, then hate me. It isn’t related to her or the An Clan. If I find out that you’ve acted against the An Clan or her, then while I might not kill you, what about the people you care about? Would the Demon Emperor protect them as well?”

“Are you threatening me?” Yang Ye tightened his grip on his sword.

The woman nodded and said, “Am I not qualified to?”

Yang Ye took a deep breath after a short while pa.s.sed, and then he said, “Fine, as you wish. This is something between the two of us. I won’t act against the An Clan if it doesn’t act against me. But remember what I’ve said. The first person I come to kill upon attaining the Monarch Realm will be you. Don’t worry, I won’t make you wait for long.”

Yang Ye’s figure flashed and vanished on the spot after he finished speaking.

“Aunt, why do all of that!?” An Biru suddenly said after Yang Ye left, “He has resentment towards our An Clan, so it’s impossible for us to be reconciled. Even if he is willing to do so, it’s still impossible for our sides to be reconciled.

“We underestimated his strength and potential!” The woman spoke abruptly. “If I didn’t act against him like you’ve said in the past, then our An Clan would be in the same position at the Northern An Clan, and we would have a way out. Now, he has grown and has the protection of an extraordinary expert like the Demon Emperor. Not to mention us, even the Exalted Han Empire would find it difficult to eliminate him. Under the circ.u.mstances that Monarch Realm experts can’t act against him, there isn’t any power that can endure that madman’s revenge. He’s even more terrifying than the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor because the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor wasn’t called the Sword Demon as well!”

“So, you threatened him on purpose so that the enmity between him and the An Clan would become a personal grudge between the two of you?” An Biru said, “Actually, there’s no need to do that. Even though you were mistaken, everything you did was for the An Clan’s sake. So, the An Clan will definitely endure everything with you!”

“Biru, are you worried that he would really be able to kill me upon attaining the Monarch Realm?” said the woman.

“It isn’t beneficial to the An Clan regardless of which one of you dies!” said An Biru.

The woman fell silent. Indeed, Yang Ye isn’t all alone now, and he has support as well. It’s difficult to say whether killing him would make those who support him to seek vengeance.

In the end, it was her decision on that day which had caused the An Clan to fall into such a bad situation. Of course, it wouldn’t be a problem if Yang Ye was eliminated by Luo Jun. But it was clearly quite difficult to accomplis.h.!.+
