Chapter 294 - Ye Chen Strikes (1/2)

Ye Zhantian and the others looked up and saw a silhouette descending upon them like a shooting star.

The distance between the Golden Sun Condor and the ground was almost five hundred meters. Falling from such a height, even a Tenth Level combatant would suffer some injuries!

They looked closely and saw that the silhouette descending from the sky belonged to a little boy. Just as the boy reached a height of approximately five meters from the ground, he stopped and hovered silently in the air.

“Uncle, Big Brother Ye Chen sent me to protect all of you,” Little Wingsy told Ye Zhantian.

What Little Wingsy did not know was that his actions had truly stunned everyone below.

Mid-air hover, this was the level of a Heavenly Venerable One!

My god, Little Wingsy only looked five or six years old!

Even when Little Wingsy had visited the Ye Clan valley as a guest, Ye Zhantian, Ye Zhanxiong, and the others did not imagine that he was a Heavenly Venerable One! If only they had known earlier that Little Wingsy was a Heavenly Venerable One, they would not have treated him so flippantly.

Still, they did not know the true extent of Little Wingsy’s abilities. If they knew that Little Wingsy’s abilities were far beyond the level of Heavenly Venerable One, their reactions would be unimaginable.

“Brother Zhantian, is this person from the Ye Clan?” Xu Jian asked in a reverent tone. The others were also regarding Ye Zhantian with an eager expression.

Heavenly Venerable One. According to rumors, only one person in the Xiwu Empire had achieved the rank of Heavenly Venerable One, which was Great Emperor Mingwu!

However, right now, standing before them was another Heavenly Venerable One. Moreover, this Heavenly Venerable One looked merely five or six years old. This was completely… Mind-boggling! Even if someone began cultivating in their mother’s womb, it would be impossible to achieve the rank of Heavenly Venerable One at the age of five or six, right?

Nevertheless, the truth was presented before their eyes. If Little Wingsy was not a Heavenly Venerable One, how could he perform a mid-air hover?

At this moment, no one could describe the shock in their hearts.

“Little… Little Wingsy, why aren’t you helping your Big Brother Ye Chen?” Ye Zhantian wondered if yelling at Little Wingsy constituted disrespect to a Heavenly Venerable One and felt a little tremble in his heart. Regardless, he knew that Little Wingsy was very obedient toward Ye Chen, so Ye Zhantian dared not yell at him.

“Big Brother Ye Chen said that he can deal with the Nanman Kingdom cavalry all by himself!” Little Wingsy replied in an unworried manner.

Outside them were almost two hundred thousand horsemen in full armor. Even if Ye Chen was a Heavenly Venerable One, it was impossible for him to kill so many horsemen single handedly! On second thought, Ye Chen had a Heavenly Adept Golden Sun Condor to protect him, so those Nanman Kingdom cavalries would not be able to harm him. In case of danger, Ye Chen could easily escape on the Golden Sun Condor.

These people did not expect that the Ye Clan was protected by such a skilled combatant. It appeared that they were saved! They rejoiced from the bottom of their hearts and were filled with gratitude toward the Ye Clan. If not for the Ye Clan, they might have become another corpse in the earth.

Seeing that Ye Zhantian kept looking at the direction in which the Golden Sun Condor had flown, Little Wingsy smiled. “Don’t worry, uncle. Big Brother Ye Chen will be fine. When we were in Capital City, Big Brother Ye Chen had single handedly defeated five Heavenly Venerable Ones from the Nanman Kingdom. Now, every gold-armored imperial guard in Capital City refers to Big Brother Ye Chen as ‘God of War’. These people won’t be able to harm Big Brother Ye Chen.”

Little Wingsy’s words struck them like a bolt of lightning. Everyone was stunned.

“Little Wingsy, what did you say? Ye Chen single handedly defeated five Heavenly Venerable Ones from the Nanman Kingdom?” Ye Zhantian stared at Little Wingsy in wide-eyed disbelief.

The martial art practitioners in the vicinity exchanged incredulous looks with one another. This was too unbelievable. Ye Chen was Ye Zhantian’s son, so he must be only twenty over years old at most. How could he single handedly defeat five Heavenly Venerable Ones? Many of them knew that at the Ye Clan celebration, Ye Chan was only at Eighth or Ninth Level!

If this had been an ordinary setting, they would have simply laughed and treated it as a joke. However, these words were uttered by a Heavenly Venerable One, so they were hesitant and wondered if they should believe him.

“Uncle, you don’t believe Little Wingsy?” Little Wingsy peered at him seriously.

“No, it’s not that.” Ye Zhantian quickly shook his head. It was not that he did not believe Little Wingsy, but such a feat was just too mind boggling.

“Big Brother, Little Wingsy is only five or six but he’s already a Heavenly Venerable One. It’s completely conceivable that Little Chen has reached such a level as well,” Ye Zhanying said beside his brother.

“Yeah, our knowledge is too shallow. I didn’t expect that Little Chen’s cultivation has reached such an advanced level.” Ye Zhantian felt inexplicably emotional.

The martial art practitioners around them regarded Ye Zhantian with newfound respect and admiration. With such an accomplished son, surely Ye Zhantian would be a significant person in the Xiwu Empire in the future.

“Ye Patriarch, we’re willing to follow after you. Would you agree to accept us?” Xu Jian and the others bowed to Ye Zhantian and declared soundly to him. Such a declaration was different from surrendering to the Nanman Kingdom. Here, they were merely declaring their allegiance to the Ye Clan, similar to their declaration of allegiance to the Xiwu Empire. After all, the Ye Clan was a family from their homeland, not a foreign nation! In addition, they had complete faith in Ye Zhantian’s character.

“We, too, are willing to follow Ye Patriarch. Please, Ye Patriarch, accept our allegiance!” All the martial art practitioners bowed at their waist.

Ye Zhantian was astonished at the sudden turn of events. He quickly pulled Xu Jian and the others to their feet. “Everyone, get up.”

“Ye Patriarch, please accept us,” Xu Jian and the rest of them declared obstinately.

“Every single one of you are true warriors. How could I be worthy to accept such a magnificent gift? However, if you choose to bestow your trust in me and follow my guidance, from here on forth, the Ye Clan is proud to share our honor and our shame with you!” Ye Zhantian replied in haste.

“Thank you, Ye Patriarch,” the martial art practitioners echoed.
