Everyone was stunned.
Yu Cheng, Zhang Mingxuan, and the other elders, as well as Daoist Zi Yun and the entire Purple Cloud Sect, were all frozen in shock.
It was one thing to see the ten thousand feet long sword light, but when the transformed demon attacked the mountain, most of the disciples had seen the same heaven-toppling sword.
Compared to that.
The Netherworld Saint Son was dead. He had been killed by a sword!
That was the Holy Son from the Nether Realm and the Netherworld Holy Land!
With such a figure killed here, one could imagine what kind of shocking waves would be set off in the entire Ancient China Continent!
What was even more unbelievable was that…
The person who killed the Netherworld Saint Son was Ye Chen!
It was Ye Ziling's elder brother, the mortal who should have been slow-witted and had no cultivation…He was actually a sword cultivator!
"Mo, could it be…"
Sage Zi Yun's voice trembled.
He thought of the time when Ye Ziling was being chased by a Void Core. A sword light crossed a hundred miles and destroyed the Void Core with a single sword strike. He also thought of the time when he destroyed a transformed demon with a single sword strike.
At the time, he had thought that the Ancient China Continent couldn't have such a sword cultivator and that he must have come from another world. However, the sword that had just struck was so similar to the one that had killed the manifestation!
How could it be Ye Chen!
How could it be him!
Yu Cheng, Zhang Mingxuan, and the other elders also thought of this. Their eyes were all trembling as they looked at Ye Chen in disbelief.
In these twenty short years, when did Ye Chen learn sword arts? When did he break through to the foundation establishment state and reach the golden core state? How did he obtain such a terrifying sword art?
It was unimaginable.
This had already completely surpassed the concept of a genius. He was either the reincarnation of a mighty figure or a peerless monster!
"Brother, you…"
Ye Ziling stood beside Ye Chen in a daze. Looking at the scene in front of her, she felt like she was in a dream. It was not until she barely regained her senses that she suddenly realized it.
Why did that senior help her so many times? Why did that senior protect her in secret? Why did that senior send her the Tricolored Spirit Fruit?
Because…
That senior was Ye Chen, her brother!
Especially when she recalled what Ye Chen had said while chatting. At that time, she thought that Ye Chen was joking, but now it seemed that it was all true!
"Are you really…Ye Chen?"
Ye Ziling bit her lips and stared at Ye Chen.
With such a cultivation realm, it was obviously fake that there was no spiritual Qi fluctuation. Ye Chen did not have a real mortal body, but her cultivation was too low, so she could not see through Ye Chen's cultivation realm at all. However, this kind of cultivation and realm also made her confused. Since she could not even see through his cultivation realm, was the person in front of her really Ye Chen?
"If I wasn't, why would I do all this?”
Ye Chen looked at her and smiled at her. He was indeed not completely the same, but it was not right to say that he was not. He did acknowledge Ye Ziling as his sister.
Ye Chen's words startled Ye Ziling.
Yes.
If the person in front of her was not her brother, Ye Chen, why would he save her time and time again? Why would he find the world spirit fruit for her to build her flawless dao body?
Who else could treat her so well in this world other than Ye Chen?
Thinking of this, her mind relaxed. She had used up a lot of spiritual power in the battle with the Netherworld Saint Child. After the thought that was supporting her suddenly dissipated, she could not help but sway and fall to the side, but Ye Chen gently held her.
Ye Ziling did not resist at all. She was supported by Ye Chen's hand as she looked at that familiar face. After a short pause, she smiled sweetly. Her smile was cute and innocent, just like usual.
At this moment.
She ignored everything in the outside world.
As long as Ye Chen could exist on this path, she would not have to walk alone in the future. That would be enough, and that would be the best. Even if Ye Chen killed the Netherworld Saint Son and provoked the Netherworld Holy Land, she would be willing to escape with Ye Chen.
Time seemed to have stopped for a moment.
But things did not end there.
"You…you actually killed the Saint Child…"
The black-robed master clutched his chest. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and blood was flowing out of the corner of his mouth. He looked at Ye Chen with shock and anger.
The Netherworld Holy Land commanded the entire Secluded Realm, and no one dared to disobey it. The Netherworld Holy Son had come to the Ancient China Realm in search of an opportunity. He had thought that he was just taking a stroll, but he did not expect that someone would dare to make a move in the Purple Cloud Sect!
"Whether you're Perfected Canopy or Perfected Pill Calamity, you've killed the Holy Son of the Netherworld Holy Land.”
the black-robed Daoist said through gritted teeth.
Then, he suppressed his injuries and took out the Netherworld Sacred Token. A Nascent Soul's aura lingered on it, and then a dim light flashed across the Sacred Token in an instant before it disappeared into the void.
Ye Chen could stop it, but he did not do so, because the news here would spread back to the Netherworld Holy Land sooner or later. Even if he cut off this holy token, it would only delay it a little.
It was meaningless.
He was not afraid of the Netherworld Holy Land.
"The Netherworld Holy Land can't scare me, but you…Since you've already said those harsh words, don't leave.”
Ye Chen looked at the black-robed man and said indifferently.
As soon as he finished speaking.
The black-robed Daoist immediately felt his heart palpitate, as if he was locked onto by something terrifying, sending chills down his spine.
He didn't say anything and suppressed his injuries. In an instant, he turned into a ray of light and fled into the sky. He didn't dare to say anything else.
Ye Chen did not attack immediately.
He looked at Ye Ziling and said gently,""I'll go ask him a few words. I'll be back soon. Wait for me here.”
"... Yeah."
Ye Ziling nodded and took a step back.
Her expression was no longer as cold as the Ice Mountain Fairy's. Instead, it was filled with the innocence and cuteness that she had only shown in front of Ye Chen in the past. In the past, she did not dare to show such an expression in front of others because she had always been moving forward alone, and only herself was supporting herself.
However, she did not need to pretend to be that now. She could relax. Just as Ye Chen had said a long time ago, she had Ye Chen standing behind her now.
