Chapter 531: Chapter 530 Arriving Just in Time

At that moment, the West Spirit King sensed a familiar aura. That person had arrived. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Indeed, it was Ye Fan. He descended from the sky, and with a flick of his finger, the Yuanhong Sword returned to his hand. As for the two Spirit Clan Commanders slain by the sword, their bodies had been shattered beyond recognition. Not even a corpse could be found.

Ye Fan’s sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. He was the ultimate hope of the Spirit Suppressing Domain, and now, that ultimate hope had returned in its most critical hour. His powerful return made him seem like a radiant moon in the highest heavens, so brilliant that none dared to gaze upon him.

Several women breathed a collective sigh of relief. They had always believed Ye Fan would return. Although he was a bit late, they knew there were understandable reasons.

"Brother Ye...!"

Zhuang Zhou felt a surge of worry. Even though Ye Fan has the potential to slay gods, his strength is still somewhat lacking at the moment. He really shouldn’t have appeared. But Ye Fan had appeared nonetheless.

Ye Fan gave Zhuang Zhou a reassuring look and said, "Don’t worry. Since I dared to show up, I have no intention of fearing them."

His words were forceful, carrying an air of boundless dominance. This was the man in whom the Spirit Suppressing Domain had placed its greatest hopes.

At this, the high-ranking figures present were stunned. Could he have broken through again? It certainly seems so. If he hadn’t, he wouldn’t be wearing such an invincibly confident smile. But how much time has passed? Ye Fan has broken through *again*? His path of advancement is as terrifying as the legends about him.

Ye Fan said, "All of you, step back. Today’s battlefield is between him and me!"

"Alright!" A group of people immediately retreated, fearing they might interfere with his battle. That would be a grave sin.

"Young man, your growth rate is indeed beyond my expectations," the West Spirit King mocked. "But you are still just a plaything for the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet. To think you’d willingly become her toy just to survive... How disappointing!"

"Who says I’m her plaything?" Ye Fan retorted. "The fact that I dare to appear proves I fear no challenge—not from you, and not from the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet!"

This was an extremely domineering declaration, going beyond mere confidence into something supreme.

"Is that so? Mortals are mortals, after all. Even if they achieve a lucky breakthrough, they can never become a Spirit, let alone a god!"

The West Spirit King drew his weapon. His primary objective in this war was Ye Fan, and now that Ye Fan had finally emerged, his eyes filled with endless anticipation. His entire future now depended on this man. This wasn’t just true for the West Spirit King. The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet’s ultimate goal was also Ye Fan, for he alone held the power to change either of their destinies. This was Ye Fan’s purpose.

At this moment, every Martial Artist, whether from the Spirit Suppressing Domain or the Spirit Domain, fixed their attention on Ye Fan and the West Spirit King. They were the two individuals who would decide the course of the war.

Then, the West Spirit King revealed his weapon: a spear that radiated energy, was two zhang long, and was incredibly sharp. It was a peerless weapon of slaughter. Legend said that this spear had once slain gods and absorbed their divine energy, which had made it extraordinarily terrifying.

The West Spirit King pointed his spear at Ye Fan and barked, "Boy, if you fight me, you’re doomed to die a miserable death!"

"Is that so?" Ye Fan raised the Yuanhong Sword. With his sword in hand, he charged straight at the West Spirit King.

Instantly, the West Spirit King moved as well, his spear lashing out. Numerous phantoms of a golden spear filled the sky. As they descended, Ye Fan couldn’t distinguish the real from the illusions, so he simply swung his sword and sliced through them all.

With the phantoms cleared, Ye Fan pressed his attack with the Yuanhong Sword. The West Spirit King’s golden spear met him, swinging with terrifying and masterful force. The golden spear struck the Yuanhong Sword, and the two peerless weapons scraped against each other, creating a shower of sparks. Both wielders had used nearly equal force, and their weapons were sent flying from their hands.

As Ye Fan moved to recall the Yuanhong Sword, the West Spirit King unleashed a punch. The might of a Spirit King was inviolable, and the blow struck Ye Fan squarely, sending him flying backward. He crashed hard onto the ground. If it weren’t for the Spirit Suppressing Array, his fall might have brought down the entire Spirit Suppressing City. Ye Fan struggled to climb out of the rubble. The crowd hadn’t been able to follow the swift exchange. But just as Ye Fan had adjusted his movement technique, the West Spirit King struck again, his fist slamming into Ye Fan’s chest.

PFFT! Ye Fan spat out a mouthful of blood.

The West Spirit King mocked, "You’re still too weak. You thought your appearance could save everything? In reality, your arrival only ensures you’ll die a more tragic death! You’re nothing but a clown. You possess so many peerless techniques, but what’s the use? An ant will always be just an ant."

At that moment, Ye Fan gathered his power in his right hand while his left caught the West Spirit King’s fist.

He said coldly, "That’s not necessarily true!"

"Pure Yang Divine Fist!"

The blow slammed into the West Spirit King.

ARGH! The West Spirit King was sent flying. After taking Ye Fan’s blow at such close range, he could only stagger to his feet.

The people on both sides were stunned. Everyone, friend or foe, knew that the two had committed to a life-or-death battle. A clash between Spirit Kings was destined to shake the world.

At that moment, Ye Fan’s women were deeply worried for him. Seeing their husband fighting so desperately, it was impossible not to feel a pang of guilt. But what good would guilt do now? The battle still had to be fought.

As for the Spirit Clan Commanders, they too were shocked. They finally understood why the West Spirit King had been so desperate to attack the Spirit Suppressing Domain. This expert from the Secular World had already grown strong enough to threaten their Spirit Domain. If he were allowed to continue growing, and if the Divine Race did not intervene, who could possibly be his match? No one. That included the West Spirit King, as it was now uncertain if even he could defeat Ye Fan.

On another front, the Blood-colored Divine Pet and the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet were engaged in a decisive battle. Despite being a woman, the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet was undeniably powerful. The Blood-colored Divine Pet had been at a disadvantage from the very start of their fight and was still struggling. The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet had been tempered by a Divine Bloodline and was on a completely different level than before.

She wounded the Blood-colored Divine Pet with a single sword strike. Though pained, the Blood-colored Divine Pet retaliated by releasing an endless sea of blood. To avoid being trapped within it, the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet immediately retreated. Their war wouldn’t end so easily, but it would certainly conclude much faster than the battle between Ye Fan and the West Spirit King, given the huge disparity in their strength. The Blood-colored Divine Pet definitely wouldn’t last much longer.
