Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Chen ran as fast as he could. He felt a mixture of emotions – anxiety, fear, and terror – all of it. He was afraid he would come home to a gruesome scene to find one of the clan members’ bodies. Thinking about it scared him greatly.

No, none of that would happen!

Absolutely not!

Back at the Ye Castle, ten of the clan members had taken Liu Xun’s pills. They looked defeated. From the moment they took the pill, they knew death awaited them.

Two chirps came from the sky. The Raven Hawk and the Vermillion Spirit Condor circled above. The Raven Hawk was smaller in size and thus did not stand out as much. Meanwhile, the Vermillion Spirit Condor burned brightly in flames which made it seem extremely noticeable.

Why was the Raven Hawk and the Vermillion Spirit Condor appearing at the same time?

The Ye Clan members were baffled. However, it ignited a spark of hope in them.

What was going on? Liu Xun was momentarily stunned. The Raven Hawk and Vermillion Spirit Condor were Tenth Level mystical beasts. As the Ye clan members looked to the sky, he felt a moment of unease. Were the Ye Clan’s reinforcements on their way?

“All Dark Troopers surround the Ye Clan members. If you see any sudden moves, kill them!” Liu Xun ordered. He was feeling restless, especially now that the Ye Clan members had been taken hostage by him.

The hawk and condor circled the skies for a little while before flying further away.

Perhaps they were just passing by?

The Ye Clan members sunk into despair once more. Who would come to the aid of the clan? Ye Min? That was impossible. Ye Min had taken Ye Rou away and she would never turn back. As for Ye Chen, they did not wish that he would return. Liu Xun was a Tenth Level combatant and Liu Kan was a mid-Tenth Level combatant. Against two Tenth Level combatants, the odds were against Ye Chen. It would be better if he remained outside, at least that would give the clan some form of hope.

Ye Chen was running in the forest as he received the message from the Raven Hawk and the Vermillion Spirit Condor. He was fuming at this point.

The castle was thoroughly surrounded by the Second-Prince’s Palace cavalries and all the clansmen were taken hostage by Liu Xun.

Father and grandpa were shackled. Even their clavicles were locked up too. They looked seriously wounded as did the rest of the clansmen. The youngsters of the clan were hung at the wooden posts, whipped by men until they bled profusely.

Ye Chen clenched his fist so hard that his nails began to dig into his flesh and caused his palm to bleed. He was heartbroken at the scenario and most of all, furious to the point where he could not think straight.

‘Liu Xun, I’m going to tear you to pieces!’

Every part of Ye Chen was hot like fire. His Celestial Chi burst forth, a strong presence of Pressure appeared. He was determined to kill every single soul in the Second-Prince’s Palace.

Ye Chen was not one to take lives simply. He had only taken lives in the past out of self-defense. Today, however, he was in a state of bloodlust.

Ye Chen had never felt this much pain until today and that pain was enough for him to kill!

“Liu Xun, Liu Kan, Qiu Yang!” Ye Chen gritted his teeth. His joints were all fired up like a chain of explosions went off in them. He was so furious that he could no longer be reasoned with.

Ye Chen never wanted to make any enemies. He merely wanted to get strong and to survive in the world. He was an orphan in the past and when he came to this world, he became a part of the Ye Clan. He had always thought of himself as an outsider, that he did not belong there. His soul came from a faraway world as that was where home was for him. Then, he was attacked by the Yun Clan and had his meridian channels crippled. His father and the rest worked hard to save his life. The clansmen cared for him while his grandpa and father protected him. Eventually, he opened up to the clan. From that day onward, he told himself that the Ye Clan was his home and that he swore to protect them.

Father, grandpa, second uncle, third uncle, Ye Rou… All of them made Ye Chen feel the warmth of a family. His soul may have come from a different world but the blood that coursed through his veins belonged to the clan. It taught him the meaning of blood is thicker than water and what it meant to be a part of the clan! Most importantly, it taught him that he was no longer alone!

It took a while for him to feel such love. Ye Chen cherished them greatly but now, someone intended to destroy the clan! That person had crossed Ye Chen’s line!
