Chapter 1293: Chapter 1272: Kill King Qi (Part 2)

King Qi flew into a rage.

He hadn’t expected Ye Guichen’s speed to be this fast, even less had he expected King Qin to still not know life from death and dare to resist him.

"Qin Tianqi, you’re under my foot—what right do you have to speak, what right do you have to call yourself King Qin!" King Qi stomped down on King Qin’s back, directly stomping him until he spat out a mouthful of blood.

King Qin had already been crippled to begin with, and now his aura grew even weaker.

He slowly raised his head, didn’t even bother to wipe the blood at the corner of his mouth, and instead stared coldly at King Qi. "Qi Yinglong, I already told you, you and I are nothing but tiny chess pieces. Right now you’re relying on your cultivation to do as you please, but can your cultivation stay like this forever? When the time limit is up, can you still be this arrogant? Or do you plan to use this period to kill everyone who resists you?"

"Haha, maybe you really do have that idea, but even if you become the Netherworld Emperor, what meaning would that have?"

"Qi Yinglong, wake up. Everything you have is actually just an illusion. If you wake up now, it’s still not too late!"

"Bullshit!" At this point, King Qi wouldn’t listen to King Qin’s nonsense at all.

The overwhelming power made his mind start to lose itself.

He stomped down again with force.

Directly crushing King Qin’s chest.

Ignoring whether King Qin was dead or alive, King Qi lifted his head and swept his cold gaze over his own soldiers. "What are you all standing around for! Kill them, kill everyone who dares resist me, do you hear me!"

However, no one moved.

Right now everyone was staring at King Qi.

Even those Qi soldiers and Qi generals had doubt in their eyes.

One Qi General stepped forward. "King Qi, is what they said all true? Are those living dead really connected to you?"

"General Feilong, are you questioning me?" King Qi didn’t answer directly, instead staring coldly at that general, killing intent already surging in his eyes.

General Feilong’s face darkened, and he quickly lowered his head. "King Qi, I only hope for an answer."

"An answer? Haha, fine, I’ll give you an answer!" King Qi let out a wild laugh, his figure suddenly flashed forward, and his palm slammed down on the top of General Feilong’s head.

The next second, General Feilong’s head was smashed to pulp, dead beyond dead.

Whoosh!

All the Qi soldiers on site were stunned.

General Feilong was their commander, and also the highest-ranking general in this crusade against the Son of Nether Emperor.

In the past, he had rendered enormous service for King Qi.

Yet now, just for one sentence of doubt, he was executed on the spot.

Everyone began to back away.

In their eyes, resentment surged up.

Not a shred of respect remained.

King Qi could naturally feel their change.

But he didn’t care in the slightest.

"Haha, what, you all want to rebel against me too? Fine, since that’s how it is, then today, I’ll start a massacre!"

King Qi spread his arms, his entire body exuding a Lingtian-like, sky-piercing aura.

It was as if even heaven and earth were covered by压顶的black clouds, a terrifying aura rapidly spreading.

A Foundation Establishment fifth-layer super expert—his berserk power filled everyone with fear.

At this moment, a figure stepped in front of King Qi, blocking the terrifying aura he released.

"King Qi, looks like you really did devour the aura of those living dead to become this strong. That’s tens of thousands of lives. Hehe, since that’s the case, then today, let me test you myself!"

As Ye Guichen spoke, he had already drawn the Immortal Slayer Sword.

Seeing this, everyone’s hearts tightened.

Ye Guichen’s figure, in their minds, expanded without limit.

These past days, there had been too many rumors about this Son of Nether Emperor. Some said he was a genius, that at such a young age he already had cultivation surpassing the fifth layer of Qi Refinement.

Some said he was a fiend, that with such cultivation he must have achieved it by absorbing the essence of the living dead.

Others said he was upright and aboveboard, that he wouldn’t slaughter without reason.

But there were still those who said Ye Guichen was just putting on a righteous front, all appearance and no substance, and that the Netherworld Emperor was likewise a hypocrite.

All kinds of rumors, yet today they were like a flood smashing through a dike, completely collapsing. Just from the speed Ye Guichen displayed when he acted earlier—if he wanted to escape, probably even King Qi wouldn’t be able to do anything about it.

But he hadn’t run. He’d stood up, stepping out to block in front of everyone.

Respect!

In that instant, many people felt boundless respect for Ye Guichen.

This youngster was stronger than King Qi!

Seeing this, King Qi couldn’t help but frown as he sized Ye Guichen up.

Very quickly, he saw through Ye Guichen’s cultivation.

Nothing more than the eighth layer of Qi Refinement.

Even if Ye Guichen’s method of killing Yan Fang was a bit strange, it wasn’t enough to pose any threat to him.

"Kid, you sure you want to fight?" King Qi’s voice was laced with contempt.

Ye Guichen nodded lightly. "Not only am I going to fight, today, I’m going to kill you! And from today onward, the Seven Kings will no longer carve up the realm!"

Ye Guichen also knew that since King Qin had already been subdued, as long as he killed King Qi, this matter here should be settled.

As for whether there were others behind King Qi, that could only be dealt with slowly.

There was no way King Qi would put Ye Guichen in his eyes.

Seeing everyone staring at Ye Guichen with blazing eyes, he gave a cold laugh, intent on killing Ye Guichen to intimidate everyone else.

"Fine, since you’re so eager to die, I’ll grant your wish!"

He chopped out with one palm!

The aura of a Foundation Establishment fifth layer burst forth without the slightest concealment.

The overwhelming momentum pressed down toward the top of Ye Guichen’s head.

Ye Guichen’s expression did not change.

The gap between Qi Refinement eighth layer and Foundation Establishment fifth layer was anything but small.

If it really came down to a head-on clash, Ye Guichen naturally wouldn’t be a match.

However, he had two Esoteric Sect techniques as his backing; just this alone already made him far stronger than King Qi.

"Good, bring it on!"

Ye Guichen no longer delayed; he just happened to want to test his greatest potential.

In the distance, seeing Ye Guichen’s resolute attitude, Mu Yang had no choice but to take Nolan Qingqing and turn to leave.

This time, no one stopped them.

But how could Nolan Qingqing be willing to leave?

"If you drag me away again, I’ll bite my tongue and kill myself!" Under Nolan Qingqing’s threat, Mu Yang had no choice but to halt his steps.

It was just that, now nobody was paying attention to them anymore.

Even Xuanyuan Canghai’s brows were tightly furrowed.

He clenched his fists, his face full of tension.

"Young Master, you mustn’t come to harm!" Xuanyuan Canghai knew that right now he simply couldn’t help.

He could only silently pray.

"Young Master, go for it!"

"Young Master, we believe you can do it!"

"We misunderstood you before. Now we know you are the true Son of Nether Emperor. If you survive today, I will henceforth die for you without hesitation!"

"That’s right, we will support you to become the new Netherworld Emperor! So you must kill King Qi!"

The shouts rose in wave after wave.

Even those Qi soldiers started shouting as well.

Inexplicably, Ye Guichen actually seemed to feel some sort of aura surging into his body.

"Hm? What is this?" Ye Guichen’s brows lifted slightly, doubt churning in his heart.

But at this moment, he couldn’t afford to think too much about it.

Seeing King Qi’s palm chop down, Ye Guichen did not dare be negligent.

He directly swallowed a large mouthful of Qi Replenishing Pills and rapidly circulated the Evergreen Wood Technique.

The next second, Ye Guichen’s whole body seemed to be wrapped in densely packed vines.

Boom!

With a single palm.

All the vines around Ye Guichen were severed.

But it didn’t matter.

Ye Guichen circulated the Evergreen Wood Technique once more.

The broken vines actually coiled around him again.

After repeating this several times, King Qi still hadn’t managed to injure Ye Guichen in the slightest.

"Hm? What is this thing?" A trace of doubt flashed in King Qi’s eyes, and in the depths of his gaze even a hint of burning heat appeared.

Ye Guichen’s methods were endless.

If he could imprison Ye Guichen’s soul and subject him to harsh torture, forcing out his Cultivation Technique, then even if he lost his Foundation Establishment fifth layer cultivation, he would still have room to make a comeback.

"Die!" King Qi condensed a blade of True Qi and chopped down again.

This time Ye Guichen wasn’t stupid enough to take it head-on.

He quickly retreated and once again unleashed the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique!

"Suppress!"

As Ye Guichen’s voice fell, he pushed his hand outward.

A black tower abruptly appeared.

"Clang!"

Accompanied by a loud boom.

The Qi blade condensed from True Qi slashed directly onto the black tower.

The black tower didn’t move an inch.

But the Qi blade instantly collapsed.

"What is this!" King Qi’s pupils contracted, his curiosity only growing deeper.

However, Ye Guichen simply didn’t give him a chance to react.

He pushed the black tower forward once more.

The black tower actually began to spiral up, pressing straight down toward King Qi.

King Qi originally hadn’t taken the black tower seriously, but at this moment his expression changed drastically.

For some unknown reason, he felt as if all the strength in his body had been sealed.

Not only that, it was as though that black tower was going to drag his very soul out of him.

"Aaah, what is this thing?" King Qi was panic-stricken and turned to flee.

But it was completely useless.

Strands of black chains wound out.

They wrapped around King Qi’s body.

Then, with a series of clanging sounds, they directly dragged out a shadowy figure.
