Chapter 925: King Killing Alliance
There were a few factions gathered in the air, above the entrance to the Heavenly Ruin Wasteland. Xing Qingyun pointed to a group, feeling somewhat depressed. He said, “That is the King Killing Alliance. The one standing in the palace is the Frost Moon Palace’s Yun Tianhe, who is second only to the top true inheritor of the Frost Moon Palace—Xiao Qinghan.
“The one with many white-clothed girls around him and a set of bells in front of him is the Heavenly Music Sect’s Gao Baiyu. He is likewise the number two in the younger generation of his sect. These two are the core of the King Killing Alliance.”
Xiao Chen took a look and discovered that there were indeed many experts. Behind Yun Tianhe and Gao Baiyu were two old men who felt like grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
“Xing Qingyun, you are really bold. After we let you join the King Killing Alliance, you actually dare to work with others to attack us.”
When Yun Tianhe in the cold palace above saw Xiao Chen and Xing Qingyun arrive, he led the King Killing Alliance’s people over and blocked the two’s path.
Xing Qingyun wanted to cry but could not; he dearly wanted to explain.
However, Xiao Chen had already killed so many people of the other side, and there was no way for Xing Qingyun to clear himself. In the end, he would only end up dying. So he threw caution to the wind and shouted, “What dog-fart King Killing Alliance? You have to gather so many people just to kill one Xiao Chen. You are nothing before our Demon Slaying Alliance.”
Yun Tianhe felt stifled. He had not expected a nobody, whom he found unremarkable three days ago, to actually dare to raise his voice at him like that.
“Senior Brother Yun, this brat is really reckless. I’ll help you take his head.”
A figure leaped out with a horrifying aura that soared into the clouds and stirred up strong winds in every direction. The person who came was an outstanding young talent, a Superior Grade Martial Sage who was much stronger than Xing Qingyun.
“You are just a nobody. You are not worthy to speak to our Alliance Chief. Scram!”
Xiao Chen remained expressionless as he blocked the front and threw a punch. Although he was only a middle-stage Medial Grade Martial Sage after consuming the Primal Essence Nature Pill, he did not fear going up against a grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
When his punch flew out, thunder roared and rumbled endlessly. He knocked back the person who approached, making that person vomit blood.
As Yun Tianhe stood in the palace, a cold moon rose, and the air suddenly turned cold. He frowned at the sinister-looking Xiao Chen with his head of purple hair and fluttering cloak. “Who exactly are you? Why are you opposing us?”
Xiao Chen fanned himself and stood upright in the air. He smiled and said, “I will change neither my name nor my family name. I am Ye Chen of the Heavenly Starry Ocean’s Northern Sea Alliance.”
“Ye Chen! The Bloody Young Master Ye Chen!”
The Frost Moon Palace’s Yun Tianhe and the Heavenly Music Sect’s Gao Baiyu both revealed slight expressions of shock on their faces before turning grave.
When Xiao Chen saw the two’s expressions, he could not help asking himself, Bloody Young Master…could there actually be a person in the Northern Sea Alliance called Ye Chen? This name was really something I made up.
When Xing Qingyun saw everyone’s expressions, he felt that this “Ye Chen” had a really powerful background. He laughed loudly and said, “Yun Tianhe, Gao Baiyu, the King Killing Alliance already lost its prestige. Now, my Demon Slaying Alliance is the popular one. Xiao Chen will die only at our hands.”
Yun Tianhe exchanged looks with Gao Baiyu. Then he turned around and looked down arrogantly. “The four Young Masters of the Northern Sea Alliance are very famous. However, in our Primal Chaos Domain, you have not reached the level where you can travel around without showing any fear.
“Ye Chen, for killing the people of our King Killing Alliance, you have to give us an account. Otherwise, no matter how powerful your backers are, you can forget about entering this Heavenly Ruin Wasteland.”
Xiao Chen found the situation funny. This was a name that he casually gave himself, yet there was actually someone famous with the same name. He was really extremely lucky. As for the real Ye Chen, he could only say sorry to him.
However, the real Ye Chen was far away and would not get involved no matter what. So his name was very useful in this situation.
“If you want me to apologize, you have to ask our Alliance Chief for permission first. Alliance Chief Xing, do you agree?” Xiao Chen asked after turning his head to look at Xing Qingyun.
Along the way, Xiao Chen had killed and snatched the treasures of others. When this happened, he would distribute some benefits to Xing Qingyun. At this moment, Xing Qingyun felt that Xiao Chen had a powerful background.
Xing Qingyun felt very confident as he said in a tyrannical fashion, “Sorry, our Demon Slaying Alliance has to kill Xiao Chen and spread our name everywhere. How could we possibly apologize? For being disrespectful to our Demon Slaying Alliance, you guys should be the ones to apologize.”
There were many people in the King Killing Alliance. A rough count would come to at least two hundred, among which there were several experts.
Seeing Xing Qingyun, who previously had been just a wretched tramp that lived by begging or stealing, become so arrogant now, Yun Tianhe was enraged.
“Young Master Yun, Young Master Gao, who is this Ye Chen? We’ve never heard of him before. What is the point of speaking so much nonsense with him? Just kill him directly.”
“Right, just kill them. Otherwise, others will look down on our King Killing Alliance.”
Yun Tianhe and Gao Baiyu remained silent. They could not make up their minds. Most people might not have heard the reputation of the Bloody Young Master. However, that did not mean that these two had never heard it before.
The Bloody Young Master, an outstanding young talent of the Heavenly Starry Ocean, had a strong enough reputation that the top true inheritors of the Frost Moon Palace and Heavenly Music Sect felt some worry.
According to rumors, the Bloody Young Master was temperamental, dabbling in both righteousness and evil. The Xiao Chen before the group seemed to fit the reputation of the Bloody Young Master.
Xiao Chen swept his gaze across the group and then stared at the most ferocious person there. He smiled and said, “Just a bunch of people who talk big but do nothing. How dare you be so audacious before our Demon Slaying Alliance?!”
A light flashed. As he held the folding fan, the scarlet cape behind him fluttered in the wind. He looked like a scarlet beam of light, moving around without a trace.
When Xiao Chen returned, he held a head in his hand. That head belonged to the person who shouted the loudest earlier.
When Xing Qingyun saw this, he became even bolder. He took the head from Xiao Chen’s hand and casually crushed it. He shouted, “This is the result of working against us, the Demon Slaying Alliance.”
Xiao Chen’s movements had been extremely swift. The number of people present who could even track his movements was no more than ten. And only the two old men behind Yun Tianhe and Gao Baiyu could have stopped him.
However, without any orders, these two old men would not do anything.
After Xiao Chen killed one of them with a wave of his hand, the King Killing Alliance’s cultivators could not help feeling horror.
When Yun Tianhe and Gao Baiyu saw this, they quickly gestured. The two grandmaster-level Martial Sage old men immediately leaped out with auras that could shake mountains and rivers.
The two of them threw palm strikes at the same time, wanting to send Xiao Chen and Xing Qingyun flying and kill their arrogance.
“Pa!”
Xing Qingyun could not withstand the attack and got smacked straight back. Xiao Chen dodged in advance and caught the falling Xing Qingyun. Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Alliance Chief, are you alright?!”
“Wuwuwu… Muh face is swelling from the slap; it is vewy painfu,” Xing Qingyun said pitifully. His right cheek had puffed up, so he could not speak coherently.
Carrying Xing Qingyun, Xiao Chen dodged the attacks of the two grandmaster-level Martial Sages. He smiled and said, “You two are dead for sure. You even dare to attack our Alliance Chief Xing Qingyun. No one in the world can save you now.”
The old man from the Frost Moon Palace said coldly, “What a joke. You, a mere insignificant Medial Grade Martial Sage, what can you do to me? I will beat your dog-fart Alliance Chief to death in front of you today.”
Xing Qingyun was so nervous, he was close to crying. “Young Master Ye, please stop speaking.”
Still carrying Xing Qingyun, Xiao Chen continued to evade the two’s attacks easily. He smiled and said, “Don’t be afraid. With me, the Bloody Young Master, shielding you, no one can touch you.”
“Bloody Young Master Ye Chen, what great words! Since you want to defend him, all the more I want to attack him!”
The Heavenly Music Sect old man held a jade flute in his hand, and his attacks somehow became much sharper. He now aimed all his strikes at Xing Qingyun.
Xing Qingyun was already desperate. With the pressure from two grandmaster-level Martial Sages, he felt like his heart would leap out at any moment.
“Haha. Just a group of dancing clowns. To think you are not embarrassed to form this— What’s it called again? King Killing Alliance? How funny!”
Just at this moment, mocking laughter came from a distance. A white figure holding a saber drew nearer as he quickly approached the Heavenly Ruin Wasteland.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, “White Robed King Xiao Chen!”
The two old men attacking Xiao Chen and Xing Qingyun paused for a moment, and a light flashed in their eyes. Then, they charged towards the white figure at lightning speed.
“It really is the White Robed King Xiao Chen. What a strong saber Qi! His killing intent is really horrifying as well.
This sudden appearance startled all the people of the King Killing Alliance. Then, they reacted, charging towards the white figure.
These people used various means, strong Martial Techniques or strong Secret Treasures, causing the sky to change colors as the attacks covered the sky and rained down.
That was not all. A few experts hidden in the surroundings also leaped out at this moment. A corner of Xiao Chen’s lips twitched. He counted at least ten grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
If he had not concealed himself but boldly headed to the Heavenly Ruin Wasteland openly and directly, he would not even have known how he died.
Xing Qingyun face-palmed, flabbergasted. “Crap, this Xiao Chen is really incredible. Unexpectedly, there were so many grandmaster-level Martial Sages lurking here to ambush him.”
Xiao Chen fanned himself and smiled. “Haha! Alliance Chief Xing, you are not bad, either. Earlier, the two grandmaster-level Martial Sages could not do anything to you.”
Xing Qingyun rubbed his face and forced a smile. “I’m just fine. After all, I am still the Alliance Chief of the Demon Slaying Alliance. In the future, you will be killing the White Robed King Xiao Chen with your own hands and spreading your fame everywhere. It is now sunset, and Xiao Chen already entered this Heavenly Ruin Wasteland. Young Master Ye, should we enter as well?”
Xiao Chen nodded. He was rather interested in the white-robed person from earlier. He wanted to know if that person was still alive or not.
Xing Qingyun sent out a warship, which carried the two towards the whirlpool in the air, flying towards the Heavenly Ruin Wasteland’s entrance.
Many mutated beasts were carved into the two sides of the warship, which was the only Sage Grade Secret Treasure that Xing Qingyun could take out. An Ancient Demonic Energy Cannon rested on the ship’s bow.
The instant the warship entered the whirlpool, it immediately got immersed in a black sea of demonic flames. The demonic flames howled without end. Occasionally, a horrifying ghostly visage would appear and disappear in a flash.
That was an evil spirit that mutated from the Dark Demonic Flame. It could even swallow up a grandmaster-level Martial Sage. However, it was very rare to run into it.
“Brother Ye, we have to enter and leave these fifty kilometers of Dark Demonic Flame within fifteen minutes. When the sun has set completely, the might of the Dark Demonic Flame will return to normal. My warship will not be able to block it.”
Xing Qingyun raised the defensive barrier on the warship and did not seem too anxious. As long as they did not run into any unexpected situations, there would not be any problem with clearing the fifty kilometers of demonic flames.
