Ten or so Mystique Rank experts had formed an impenetrable barrier around Ye Chen.

Ye Chen saw these people closing in and stopped in his steps, his eyes narrowing quickly. He had noticed long ago that two of them had been observing him.

“Hey, you scoundrel. I’m the custodian of the Sand Beast Clan, Sha Nantian. You’re the one who robbed my brother? Hand it over, kneel, and kowtow to me. I’ll spare your life then!” That silver-armored middle-aged man glared nastily at Ye Chen, his yellow pupils gleaming ominously.

“It’s this young’un indeed!” Among the group, a black-robed guy with a vulgar countenance pointed at Ye Chen accusingly.

“It’s this tyke who beat up my brother and robbed him of his possessions!” Another skinny man pointed at Ye Chen too.

Being in public, the Sand Beast Clan had to consider how things would look. They dared not kill and rob someone in broad daylight, so they were going to frame Ye Chen, then seize his possessions.

Upon hearing what the Sand Beast Clan said, the surrounding spectators suddenly understood. It was this guy who had stolen something from the Sand Beast Clan, so they came for revenge!

“He even dares to steal from the Sand Beast Clan. What a d*mn fool!”

“Doesn’t he know that the Sand Beast Clan mustn’t be provoked?”

“He’s incurred the wrath of the Sand Beast Clan – he’s a dead man!”

The surrounding crowd discussed fervently. Seeing that a conflict was erupting, they stepped back and created a wide, empty space.

Sha Nantian did not plan to give Ye Chen a chance to explain himself. He barged over ruthlessly, grabbing at Ye Chen. Ye Chen swiftly sidestepped him and avoided his hands. Sha Nantian grabbed only thin air and was slightly shocked. ‘This tyke isn’t too shabby. He must be peak Mystique Rank at least.’

“You said that I stole something from you. I’d like to ask – what was it you lost?” Ye Chen asked icily.

Sha Nantian paused in his steps, his fists held up to his eyes. His gaze was as sharp as steel.

The two guys behind Sha Nantian were momentarily blank.

“Twilight gold ancient coins!”

“Secret technique jade slips!”

Both of them blurted out at the same time but they said different things.

“So, tell me, is it twilight gold ancient coins or secret technique jade slips?” Ye Chen gave them a humorless smile.

When the surrounding crowd heard this exchange, they had realized the truth. Ye Chen did not rob the Sand Beast Clan of anything. It was the Sand Beast Clan who wanted to rob Ye Chen, so they came up with a story.

“This guy must’ve something that the Sand Beast Clan has their eyes on.”

“One should never flaunt one’s riches! Poor guy, he’d better just obediently hand over whatever it is.”

The Sand Beast Clan was a large faction that was not to be provoked. Thus, even though they learned that Ye Chen was wrongfully accused, the crowd could only retreat strategically.

Sha Nantian harrumphed coldly and growled. “Hand over the secret technique jade slips and twilight gold ancient coins now. Otherwise, you’ll die right here and now! Surround this scoundrel and don’t let him escape!”

The ten or so Mystique Rank experts of the Sand Beast Clan had crowded around Ye Chen. They drew their weapons. Most of them were using spiked knuckles while others held knives.

“Where else can you run?” The group of Mystique Rank experts displayed smiles of ridicule. From their perspective, Ye Chen was a trapped animal.

“You’re just ten or so Mystique Rank fighters. You think you can handle me? You’ve seen too little of the world. I possess not only twilight gold ancient coins and secret technique jade slips. I have these as well – I wonder if you can take them?” Ye Chen scoffed softly. The Ternary Sword Array was unleashed. With a “hum”, the three flying swords were hovering around Ye Chen.

‘On this sixth level of the Soul Pagoda, there are no Grand Supreme or Peerless Powers for now. Who can deal with me, Ye Chen?’

Three flying swords floated silently in mid-air. The Celestial Ice Sword was pure white and gleaming all over, encased in a layer of white frost and exuding a chilly aura. The Storm Sword was thoroughly blazing red, its blade glimmering with a red radiance and revealing an astonishing heat. As for the Storm Sword, its luster rippled like water and Water-type ripples spread outwards.

With three flying swords wielded at once, the surrounding area over hundreds of meters was enveloped in terrifying sword energy. The ten or so Mystique Rank experts from the Sand Beast Clan could not help but take a few steps back from the sheer pressure. They were bowled over.

“Sheesh, what formidable spirit artifacts! These three swords are definitely above Tier Eight, maybe even Tier Nine!”

“Is this a sword array? What overbearing ferocity!”

Around the Celestial Ice Sword, the air had been frozen into ice and frost. Near the Searing Sun Sword, flames raged and danced. The Storm Sword was shrouded in gentle Water-type Celestial Chi. There was a subtle connection between all three longswords. They floated around Ye Chen and a murderous aura instantly locked Sha Nantian and the rest in place.

Any one of these swords would be a truly impressive treasure. Even the top ten sects of the Central Empire would have used a flying sword like this to rule the faction. However, Ye Chen had taken out no fewer than three!

Even scarier was that these three swords of such extreme quality had been used to construct a sword array!

Even those standing a hundred meters away could feel the vicious force rolling outward. Their faces helplessly turned pale and they stepped back dozens of meters.

Currently, Sha Nantian and the rest were even worse off, under the direct pressure of the sword array’s brutal power. It was difficult to even take a step and their eyes were bulging with fear.
