“No, you can’t kill him. Otherwise, not only the Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan will pursue your life, even our Scarlet Thunder Gang will not let you go!” shouted Scarlet Thunder Immortal hurriedly.
Ye Xiwen’s speed was too fast. Scarlet Thunder Immortal had no time to react. She was too late to go for the rescue, so she could only shout, hoping to make Ye Xiwen hesitate. Only then she would be able to save this middle-aged elder.
Although there were many experts in Scarlet Thunder Gang, there were not many Transcendent Realm experts. They could not withstand such casualties.
Ye Xiwen’s hand that held the long saber did stagnate for a moment, but then he quickly slashed downward firmly.
Scarlet Thunder Gang would be a great threat. However, Ye Xiwen already had bad blood with the Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan anyway. It was not a big deal if Scarlet Thunder Gang was added into the list. Most importantly, he didn’t think that this middle-aged elder of Scarlet Thunder Gang would let him go.
The five Phoenix’s Flame Fruits on him were tempting. Once they learned about it, they would definitely not let them go, so the only way out was to kill them all. Only the dead would keep the secret.
“You want my mercy. Dream on!” Ye Xiwen sneered. Phoenix’s Flame Fruit was not the sole reason the Scarlet Thunder Gang turned hostile to him. Previously, the middle-aged elder wanted to hunt him down. At that time, if Ye Xiwen didn’t have the Demon Wings, he would be catched up. By that time, his Half-step Transcendent Realm Late’s strength was definitely inadequate. He would die in the end.
For such an enemy, how could he give mercy.
“Don’t you dare?” Scarlet Thunder Immortal shouted, feeling very anxious. She didn’t expect Ye Xiwen to be such a fearless fool. After emphasizing the Scarlet Thunder Gang as the backer, the action was not only useless, but on the contrary, it was counterproductive. It made Ye Xiwen more determined in his choice.
But thinking about it, only a fearless fool would kill the Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan member.
Does he plan to leave this sea region forever?
Ye Xiwen sneered. The fiery long saber was raging. Under the surrounding heat wave’s influence, it was surging with power.
“Boom!” The long saber instantly slashed on the middle-aged elder’s spear. Although the elder managed to block Ye Xiwen saber with thunder-like momentum, the impact still bombarded on him through the spear. The middle-age elder had no way to block it off, even though the force conducted through was merely a fragment. The middle-age elder had no idea how great Ye Xiwen’s strength was.
“Bang!” The middle-aged elder spurted out a mouthful of blood. His body broke apart on the spot, almost disintegrating. Blood spurted like a column.
“Boom!” His body directly slammed into a nearby mountain blasting a corner off. It was conceivable how terrifying it was.
“Go, let’s kill him together. Otherwise, only death awaits us!” At this time, Old Freak Yin didn’t hesitate. He shouted at Scarlet Thunder Immortal. He was also eager for everyone in the Scarlet Thunder Gang to be dead. Only then he could monopolize the treasure. However, he was still well-aware that once the Scarlet Thunder Immortal and the middle-aged elder die, then the next person to die would be him.
His adventure spanned for thousands of years. He still knew the basics of things. If he didn’t join hands at this time, he reaped no benefits. Not only would he be unable to have his hand on Phoenix’s Flame Fruit, but even his life would also be in danger.
Scarlet Thunder Immortal only hesitated for a moment, and then agreed. There was no other choice at that time.
Two Transcendent Realm Fourth Level Peak experts joined forces to attack Ye Xiwen, but they were still not a big trouble to Ye Xiwen. If the five of them struck together, Ye Xiwen would resort to flee. Right now, there were only two of them. Even if they were to work together, they lacked the tacit understanding. They were even enemies previously too. They would inevitably be on guard against each other, so Ye Xiwen wasn’t worried at all.
“Want to join hands!” Ye Xiwen sneered, spreading his hands with two balls of flames on his palms, which instantly evolved into saber aura. It fell towards the two.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
With two terrifying collisions, the fiery long saber blocked the offensive of the two experts. Although it was only a moment, it was enough for Ye Xiwen. Taking advantage of this opening, he turned over to chase after the middle-aged elder. Despite the middle-aged elder being severely wounded just now, he as a Transcendent Realm expert had superb regeneration. They might have emergency pellets too. If Ye Xiwen slowed down his pursuit, the opponent might recover and launch an attack when he was off guard.
At that time, he would have to face three people at the same time. It would pose a headache.
“Miss, run, you are not his opponent. Even if you join forces, it is useless. Notify the leader, summon our gang, and avenge me. You must not let him develop further. Otherwise, it will definitely bring great harm to the Scarlet Thunder Gang. In addition, tell the Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan it was this kid who killed E Xiangtian. We need them to take action!” Seemingly, the middle-aged elder knew he could not escape as he saw Ye Xiwen rushing over. He alerted the miss. His eyes were full of resentment, wishing Ye Xiwen’s demise despite the helpless situation he was in. At the beginning since he was ordered to intercept Ye Xiwen, this was destined and it could not be changed!
The middle-aged elder chanted a scripture. Immediately, countless spiritual energy gathered towards him. His whole body started to turn red with a terrifying and destructive force brewing in his body.
“No, Ye Xiwen, he wants to self-destruct. We need to stop him quickly!” Ye Mo quickly reminded him at this time.
Ye Xiwen didn’t need Ye Mo to remind him. He knew what the middle-aged elder was going to do. With countless battle experiences, he reacted by instinct. The fiery long saber in his hand manifested in an instant. Another slash was launched.
“Boom!”
The whole world was shaken. With the middle-aged elder as the center, the extremely terrifying power swept out like unstoppable sea waves. Numerous places within a dozen miles around were razed to the ground. The horror of a Transcendent Realm expert’s self-destruct was akin to a small nuclear bomb.
If it were not for the desperate situation, no Transcendent Realm expert was willing to self-destruct. Once self-destruct activated, it meant the souls would be gone, with no second chances.
But fortunately, Ye Xiwen rushed over to kill the elder before he completely self-destructed. Otherwise, the power of the explosion would be much more terrifying.
Even Ye Xiwen was pushed a few steps away by the terrorizing wave caused by this explosion.
At this time, Old Freak Yin had already taken advantage of this opening to appear in front of Ye Xiwen.
“We need to join hands and kill him. Otherwise, none of us will survive!” Old Freak Yin shouted violently. His hands morphed into ghost claws, scratching towards Ye Xiwen right away.
But at this time, he suddenly discovered that Scarlet Thunder Immortal did not follow up. On the contrary, she flew towards the distance and fled away.
He almost understood it at once. That Scarlet Thunder Immortal had no intention to fight Ye Xiwen till the death. It was his wishful thinking from beginning to end. He was even treated as the meat shield to block Ye Xiwen off. Scarlet Thunder Immortal took advantage of what had happened to escape.
“Bitch, I won’t let you go!” At this time, he was gloomy and mad. He hated Scarlet Thunder Immortal to the guts, even more than Ye Xiwen. If Ye Xiwen and Scarlet Thunder Immortal were put together as choices, he would definitely choose to kill Scarlet Thunder Immortal first.
The wild goose pecked the hunter’s eyes [1]. He did not have the same idea as Scarlet Thunder Immortal even at the beginning. However, after learning about Ye Xiwen’s speed, he realized that it wouldn’t work. If he did not put up a desperate fight, he had no chance to survive. Hence, instead of waiting to die, it was better to make a gamble. That was the reasoning of why he joined forces with Scarlet Thunder Immortal.
But who knows, Scarlet Thunder Immortal actually cheated him. In just a few moments, Scarlet Thunder Immortal had run far away. She was out of the visible range of a naked eye.
He was aggrieved, but Ye Xiwen didn’t give him too much time to dwell in his emotions. The slash had already approached.
The fiery saber aura absorbed the heat waves in the air. It appeared like a ball of flame, which grew stronger and stronger, and finally blasted down.
“Boom!” At this time, Old Freak Yin finally felt the aggrieved feeling other people felt when facing Ye Xiwen. He was not as fast as Ye Xiwen, nor as strong as Ye Xiwen’s body. There was no way to fight. It was a dead end!
“Puff!” Despite the first clash, he felt as if he were already exhausted after a long fight. The horrible energy ran wildly in his body. A mouthful of blood spurted fiercely.
The long saber in Ye Xiwen’s hand kept slicing down.
“Boom!” His body was like a kite with a broken string. Ye Xiwen sent him out for a distance; most of his bones had already fallen apart.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
One slash after another. Ye Xiwen’s saber moved at an unfathomable speed complemented with the might of Mount Tai.
“Boom!” At last, all the defensive martial instruments on his body and the aura barrier collapsed in an instant. He didn’t have the physique of the brothers. Without the protection of the martial instruments and aura barrier, his body was blasted into a cluster of blood mist on the spot.
“I’m not reconciled, bitch!”
His spiteful roar still echoed in the air. It was not Ye Xiwen who was scolded at the moment he died. One could imagine how deep his hatred for Scarlet Thunder Immortal was.
