Chapter 1600: Chapter 1591: Battle with Song Chunmei
Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an, standing on either side of Ye Chenfeng, never expected their master to have a grudge with the Hall of Sea Gods? Now that the Hall of Sea Gods is getting involved, Chen Hejiang has the strength of the Middle Stage of the Fourth Heaven of the Nirvana Realm. Even if the two of them joined forces, they would not be a match for Chen Hejiang.
However, Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an felt no fear at all. Ye Chenfeng was their master; if it hadn’t been for him, their Red Flame Sect would have long been destroyed at the hands of Wind Thunder Sect, Sword Feather Villa, and the ancestor of Star Cloud Sect.
Even if it meant dying for Ye Chenfeng, Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an wouldn’t bat an eyelid. These two old men were just that straightforward.
Lin Xinyi, whose acupuncture points were sealed by Li Bei’ao, the Sect Master of Yinming Sect, couldn’t move an inch. However, she could still speak.
Seeing the Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods involve himself, Lin Xinyi knew things were going south. No matter how strong Ye Chenfeng was, he couldn’t fend off the attack of a Nirvana Realm expert.
Due to cultivating the Emotionless Triple Severance, Lin Xinyi’s voice was somewhat frosty as she yelled at Ye Chenfeng, "Ye Chenfeng, leave, I don’t need you to save me."
Song Longtian snorted coldly. His father, Song Haiyun, died on Sunset Island. Though Song Longtian didn’t yet have the strength to go after Sunset Island and Yunxian Sect, since Ye Chenfeng had ties to his father’s death, he would use Ye Chenfeng to vent some of his pent-up anger.
Song Longtian’s gaze never left Ye Chenfeng. He said coldly, "Escape? Do you really think you can get away?"
Ye Chenfeng, holding the Black Xuan Sword, knew Lin Xinyi was worried about him. There was quite a distance between them; he couldn’t put Lin Xinyi into the small world of the Chaos Ring. Otherwise, he would have taken Lin Xinyi and others there.
Ye Chenfeng understood that if Chen Hejiang and others from the Hall of Sea Gods attacked, their side would be in danger.
Ye Chenfeng said calmly, "You say the death of Song Haiyun, the Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods, is related to me? I would like to ask, did Song Haiyun reach the Nirvana Realm?"
Song Longtian’s son, Song Peng, who had been standing behind him, knew that if his grandfather Song Haiyun were alive, his father Song Longtian might have taken the position of Sect Master of the Hall of Sea Gods. Then, he wouldn’t have needed to join this Fifth-Rank Sect, Yinming Sect.
Song Peng stepped forward disdainfully, shouting, "Is my grandfather’s name one you can call? Are you out of your mind? My grandfather crossed into the Nirvana Realm long ago."
Chen Nan, the grandson of Chen Hejiang, also stepped out from behind him. Despite being at odds with Song Peng, he knew Song Haiyun’s death drastically reduced the power of the Hall of Sea Gods. Now was the time to unite against outsiders, as any disciple of a major Sect should understand.
Chen Nan looked at Ye Chenfeng with contempt, and shouted, "Boy, don’t think that just because you defeated the Saint Heir of Yinming Sect, you’re anything special! Do you even think before you speak, or are you truly just a pig? To become a Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods, one must have reached the Nirvana Realm."
Ye Chenfeng looked indifferently at Song Peng and Chen Nan, who were echoing each other. He laughed, nodded, and said, "Quite right, I’m very satisfied with your answer."
Then, changing his tone, Ye Chenfeng said, "Since Song Haiyun reached the Nirvana Realm, and my strength is merely at the Divine Thought Realm, do you think I could kill Song Haiyun? You’re pinning an unfounded accusation on me; I see it’s you from the Hall of Sea Gods wanting to stand up for Yinming Sect, isn’t it?"
"Today’s the Yinming Sect’s contest for the Saint Heir, and I’ve defeated their candidate—are they so sore losers? Even bringing in the Hall of Sea Gods, what an impressive show of power!"
Ye Chenfeng looked mockingly at Song Peng and Chen Nan, continuing, "Your intelligence is really concerning; even if you want to charge me with a crime, do you think everyone in the world is an idiot?"
Song Peng and Chen Nan were rendered speechless by Ye Chenfeng’s words. Their faces turned bright red, their bodies trembling with anger.
At this moment,
Zuo Feibai and Wu Lifen, who stood behind Ye Chenfeng, also stepped up.
Zuo Feibai, Young Master of Yunxian Sect, shouted, "Does the Hall of Sea Gods really want to go to war with us, the Yunxian Sect? If so, you can kill me and my ancestor right now."
Wu Lifen, Young Master of Sunset Island, glanced at Ye Chenfeng, then resolutely declared, "This is my ancestor, Wu Lifen. If the Hall of Sea Gods tries to bear the combined might of Sunset Island and Yunxian Sect, you can start immediately."
The others seated at the forefront all fell silent one after another. After all, Yunxian Sect and Sunset Island were Third-Rank Sects, and today’s situation was becoming increasingly troublesome.
Chen Hejiang, Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods, was filled with frustration. The Hall of Sea Gods could no longer endure any turmoil; if Sunset Island and Yunxian Sect launched a joint attack, it would further diminish their power.
Song Longtian guessed Chen Hejiang’s thoughts. Having broken away from the Hall of Sea Gods, Song Longtian lacked the capital to oppose Yunxian Sect and Sunset Island now.
Yet, standing behind them, Song Peng and Chen Nan were eager to attack Ye Chenfeng immediately.
After a moment of silence, Chen Hejiang spoke once more, "Today is the contest for the Saint Heir of Yinming Sect, yet you disabled their candidate, isn’t that too cruel?"
"Although life and death don’t matter in duels, your actions have gone too far, and you plan to take away a Yinming Sect genius. You owe Yinming Sect an explanation, no matter what."
Chen Hejiang purposely avoided mentioning the recent issue involving Song Haiyun, shifting the focus to Yinming Sect. Indeed, he was a cunning old fox, wanting to have Yinming Sect kill Ye Chenfeng.
Song Longtian glanced at Song Chunmei, who was supporting Jiang Motian. Song Chunmei pondered for a moment, then stood forward and shouted at Ye Chenfeng, "Kid, you can take our Yinming Sect genius Lin Xinyi today, but only if you defeat me."
"Otherwise, even if my disciple Jiang Motian is ruined, Lin Xinyi still has to become his woman."
Song Chunmei knew Lin Xinyi’s importance to Ye Chenfeng; otherwise, he wouldn’t risk coming to Yinming Sect.
"Master, you can’t agree to this demand," Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an expressed their urgent concern.
"Exactly! Ancestor, they clearly want you dead," Zuo Feibai and Wu Lifen also hurriedly advised against it.
Ye Chenfeng fell into thought. Currently, his strength was at the Peak of the Fifth Heaven of the Divine Thought Realm, and he still had a lot of residual medicinal energy in his body.
If he fought Song Chunmei, he would absorb this energy through the battle, and if he crossed into the Creation Realm, then he might not necessarily lose to her.
After all, after entering the Creation Realm, Ye Chenfeng could remove the Black Xuan Armor. Then, he might even be able to kill Song Chunmei, the old hag.
To become strong, one must have a heart that is fearless and pressing forward.
Today, Ye Chenfeng was determined to take Lin Xinyi away.
Ye Chenfeng looked at Li Bei’ao, the Sect Master of Yinming Sect, pointed at Song Chunmei, and asked, "If I defeat her, can I take Xinyi? And no one intervenes in the battle?"
"Most importantly, is this fight a life-or-death duel?"
Li Bei’ao, the Sect Master of Yinming Sect, looked uncomfortable. He certainly didn’t want to let Lin Xinyi go, but he could only nod and say, "As long as you can defeat Elder Song, then today you can take Lin Xinyi and leave Yinming Sect safely."
Chen Hejiang and Song Longtian nodded with a smile. If Ye Chenfeng died at the hands of Song Chunmei in the arena, no one else would have a word to say.
They could only blame Ye Chenfeng for overestimating his own abilities.
Ye Chenfeng gripped the Black Xuan Sword tightly in his hand, and said with vigor, "Alright, I accept this challenge."
"But you all better not do anything disgraceful."
Then, Ye Chenfeng turned to Zeng Guangyuan and the others, saying, "You all step down from the arena first."
Seeing their hesitation, Ye Chenfeng spoke again, "Do you not have faith in me? Do you think I’m someone who likes to seek death?"
Hearing Ye Chenfeng say this, Zeng Guangyuan and the others finally stepped off the arena.
