Chapter 639 – Luo Jun! (1/2)

Yang Ye vanished without a trace after the battle before Immortal Qilin City. As for the 3 geniuses of the Hallowed Grounds, one perished on the spot while the other 2 vanished. However, as far as everyone else was concerned, Mo Yixie and Yun Qingyao were probably dead.

12th level Sword Intent!

Word of Yang Ye’s 12th level Sword Intent swept through Profounder Continent, and then countless clans and sects left the territory of the Exalted Han Empire and headed to the southern territory….

The Hallowed Grounds was very formidable, but it was very far away while Yang Ye was right before them. Moreover, even if they were once Yang Ye’s enemies, they had no choice but to admit that if Yang Ye had the chance to grow, then his accomplishments would absolutely not be inferior to the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor. So long as he became an existence on par with the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor, then while he might not be able to destroy the Hallowed Grounds, he would definitely be able to annihilate any power on the continent with ease!

Most importantly, Yang Ye still hadn’t suffered a defeat until now!

Everyone had to choose sides during these chaotic times. A good choice would naturally equate to survival or even great success, but a bad choice would lead to eternal d.a.m.nation.

Actually, if it was possible, then many clans and sects would rather side with the Hallowed Grounds. But the problem was that the Hallowed Grounds didn’t welcome them at all. After all, even if they wanted to head to the Hallowed Grounds, would the Hallowed Grounds allow it?

The arrogance and haughtiness of the geniuses who’d come from the Hallowed Grounds was obvious! Every single one of them was beyond arrogant, and they made it seem like coming to Profounder Continent was like setting foot into a pigsty….

Everyone had dignity of their own. So, since the Hallowed Grounds didn’t welcome them, then had no choice but to side with the southern territory.

Of course, Ding Shaoyao wouldn’t accept everyone. All those who came to side with the southern territory were tested and selected because she refused to allow those who might betray the southern territory to join them.

As this continued, the forces of the southern territory grew greater and greater while the Exalted Han Empire grew weaker and weaker….

3 days later, Yang Ye finally showed himself.

Yang Ye didn’t head directly to the capital like everyone expected. Conversely, he travelled around the Exalted Han Empire for half a day before heading to the Ascension Sect.

The entire Ascension Sect seemed like it was facing an extraordinary enemy when Yang Ye arrived at their door. The grand formation was activated, and all its disciples and elders left their places of cultivation. It was such a grand scene that it seemed like a Half-Saint had arrived.

“Yang Ye, there’s no enmity between my Ascension Sect and you!” The Sect Master of the Ascension Sect gazed at Yang Ye who stood in the air and spoke in a deep voice. There were a few hundred Exalt Realm experts, over 10,000 Spirit Realm experts, and countless King Realm experts standing around him. The Ascension Sect could be said to have summoned all its elites.

Yang Ye glanced at them and said, “You allied yourselves with the Exalted Han Empire, so you’re an enemy of mine.”

“The Exalted Han Empire is already in such a state. Sword Emperor, can you not show mercy?” said the Ascension Sect’s Master.

“Weeds that aren’t uprooted will always stand up once more!” Yang Ye made a grasping motion and an intent sword appeared in his hand. He said, “Ascension Sect, I only ask if you’re willing to yield!”

“Yang Ye, don’t go too far!” The Ascension Sect’s Master spoke coldly.

Yang Ye nodded, and then suddenly swung his intent sword. A strand of sword qi shot forward and crashed against the grand formation.

Bang!

The members of the Ascension Sect watched with horror as countless cracks appeared on the grand formation which was capable of resisting the attacks of Monarch Realm experts….

Yang Ye was just about to wave his sword once more when a white haired old man appeared before him. Yang Ye’s pupils constricted because the old man was a ninth rank Monarch Realm expert!

“Supreme Elder!” All the disciples of the Ascension Sect instantly heaved sighs of relief when they saw the old man. Every single one of them had witnessed how terrifying Yang Ye was, and they knew that if the Ascension Sect didn’t yield, then Yang Ye would definitely slaughter their entire sect!

After all, how could anyone be a match for this demon if Monarch Realm experts couldn’t act against him?

Yang Ye didn’t launch another attack. He just gazed at the old man while the old man gazed at him as well.

After a moment of silence, the old man was the first to break the silence, “I didn’t have the chance to witness the Unfettered One’s greatness, but I presume he wasn’t as shocking as you are at such an age. Even I would probably be unable to annihilate you if you attain the Monarch Realm.”

“Senior possesses unfathomable strength. I’m no match for you!” Yang Ye wasn’t being humble. It was really what he felt. The old man’s strength was absolutely not inferior to Luo Tian, and perhaps only existences like the Demon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor could defeat the old man.

“I dare not attack you!” The old man shook his head and said, “Let’s get back on topic. I presume you’ve witnessed how terrifying the Hallowed Grounds is. Since it’s like that, then I’d like to know if you think that you can go against such a colossus?”

Yang Ye said, “All I know is that they want to kill me, so I intend to destroy them. As for whether I can go against them, haven’t you seen the outcome already? Most of the members of the Hallowed Grounds who’ve come for me are dead, right?”

“That isn’t their true strength!” said the old man.
