Chapter 71 - Tenth Stage Combatant? (1/2)
On Ye Chen’s shoulder, Little Tanuki glared at Liu Zhen and the others, a strange expression flashing in her eyes.
A war was imminent.
Two growls sounded. A giant red tiger and a yellow panther prowled inside.
“It’s the Scarlet Sky Tiger and the Stormphantom Panther!” A group of Lords and Chiefs gasped in horror and took a few steps back. The Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther were Ninth Stage mystical beasts. How did they end up at the Ye Castle? Even mid-Ninth Stage combatants would get chills seeing the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther for fear that they would go mad and start attacking people.
“What’s going on? Why are Ninth Stage mystical beasts appearing here?”
Even Mentor Qin’s heart skipped a beat as he warily watched the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther. Although he could kill the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther, if two Ninth Stage mystical beasts went wild at the same time, it would be quite terrifying.
Liu Zhen took a few steps back and looked at the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther nervously.
Under the eyes of many shocked Lords and Chiefs, the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther stalked toward Ye Chen. Their copper eyes stared at Liu Zhen and the others before issuing a low roar.
Originally, many people thought the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther were wild mystical beasts that accidentally wandered into the Ye Castle. However, after seeing this scene, they understood that the Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther were kept by the Ye Clan!
It was unprecedented for Ninth Stage mystical beasts to listen to a person’s orders. The Lords and Chiefs thought that their eyes were playing tricks on them but the truth was right in front of them, so they had no choice but to believe it.
Ye Chen looked at Liu Zhen coldly and enunciated, “You’re welcome to try to lay a hand against my Ye Clan!” Besides, they were already sworn enemies with Junwang Palace, so Ye Chen had nothing to be afraid of.
Liu Zhen calmed himself. He had also experienced much before. After suppressing the shock in his heart, he laughed loudly and growled, “What does the House of Ye think they can do with two extra pets? Don’t underestimate Junwang Palace! Nevermind two Ninth Stage mystical beasts, even if you have ten or twenty, do you think they can protect the Ye Castle? Mentor Qin, may I trouble you to please kill those two pets.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Mentor Qin fist saluted and stepped toward the main hall.
The Scarlet Sky Tiger and Stormphantom Panther flanked Mentor Qin, letting out roars that reverberated in the hall.
“Chief, I’ve brought him.” Ye Ping appeared at the doorway. He saw the scene in the hall and froze.
The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat oppressive, and Ye Ping’s sudden call attracted everyone’s attention. Following behind him was a burly middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man glanced at those in the hall before stopping at Ye Chen. He immediately felt the oppression of a powerful Psyche, and his heart quivered. The middle-aged man thought that a Daemon King’s pressure was different. He did not think much about Ye Chen being a youngster. Daemon Kings could assume any shape – whether it was old or young, male or female. Each Daemon King had their likes and dislikes, and had nothing to do with age. Which Daemon King was not an old monster who had lived for thousands of years?
“Who allowed you to speak? Impudent!” When a mid-Ninth Stage subordinate under Liu Zhen saw that it was someone from the Ye Clan, he directed his palm toward Ye Ping. The Young Master was determined to assert his power, so there was no need for him to hold back at all.
The palm was just about to hit Ye Ping but a muffled bang rang out instead. It was as if Liu Zhen’s guardian’s palm had hit an iron plate. As a result, the aftershocks that ran up his arm caused it to become numb. The meridians in his arm had almost ruptured. When the guardian raised his head, he saw that the middle-aged man behind Ye Ping had waved his sleeve and caught his palm. This situation made him panic inexplicably. The other party had just flicked his sleeve but caught an attack which the guardian had put all his strength into. The middle-aged man might be much more powerful than Mentor Qin. Not knowing how to advance, the guardian took a few steps back and did not dare to approach again.
