Chapter 1844: Seeking Death
Peerless Medicine God · 第1844章 自寻死路
"So strong! Is that... the law of space?"
"My god, a first-level Heavenly God actually kicked a third-level Heavenly God flying?"
"I never expected Han Xiao to capsize in a ditch."
...
As soon as Ye Yuan made his move, he amazed everyone.
Everyone had been watching with a mindset of seeing a spectacle, thinking Ye Yuan would suffer greatly.
Unexpectedly, it was Han Xiao who ended up lying out.
That kick was not light; Han Xiao coughed up blood incessantly and couldn't recover for a long time.
"Damn brat, you actually ambushed me! In three months, I'll make you pay back this humiliation tenfold!" Han Xiao said coldly, clutching his chest.
Everyone knew Han Xiao was truly enraged.
His identity was not ordinary; he was a member of the Han family of the imperial capital.
The Han family was one of the top three major families in the imperial capital, extremely powerful.
...
A few days later, a man in black appeared before Leng Hao.
"Young master, I've found out clearly. This brat is named Ye Yuan, just arrived in the imperial capital. As for where he came from, there's no way to trace. In any case, he was previously unknown."
Leng Hao was slightly surprised and said, "That can't be! With such astonishing talent, he should have come from the imperial capital or even the grand imperial capital. How could he be unknown? Could you have made a mistake?"
The man in black said, "Your subordinate has screened all the prodigies with spatial law under the Xi Yu Heavenly Emperor's grand imperial capital and imperial capital, and there is no name Ye Yuan. Logically, it shouldn't be wrong."
The grand imperial capital and imperial capital under a Heavenly Emperor were not as numerous as the imperial city.
As long as there was a channel for information, screening once was feasible.
But they did not find this person Ye Yuan.
Hearing this, Leng Hao also breathed a sigh of relief and said indifferently, "Since that's the case, then this brat must not be kept. What is he doing now?"
The man in black cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the young master, he is in seclusion in the Polyprime Tower. I heard he paid for three months' worth of divine source stones at once. Moreover, he injured Han Xiao of the Han family."
Leng Hao was stunned and chuckled, "Han Xiao? That good-for-nothing illegitimate son of the Han family? But that's fine; with that brat's nature, he probably won't let Ye Yuan off either. However, to be safe, send Iron Eagle to kill him."
The man in black was surprised and said, "Young master, isn't this... overkill? Iron Eagle is a fourth-level Heavenly God!"
In the Heavenly God realm, each minor realm had a huge gap.
A fourth-level Heavenly God was another level entirely.
This strength could even serve as an inspector in the current imperial city.
One must know that Jiang Yutang, the inspector of the ten kingdoms of Lingnan, was only a fourth-level Heavenly God.
Now, sending him to deal with a first-level Heavenly God was too much of a waste of talent.
Leng Hao waved his hand and said, "Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit. This brat's strength is not weak; it's better to be safe. You saw that a third-level Heavenly God was no match for him."
The man in black's gaze sharpened slightly, and he nodded, "Yes, your subordinate will arrange it immediately."
...
Three months later, in the cultivation chamber, Ye Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
His aura was now much stronger than before.
His divine vortex had shrunk considerably compared to when he was a first-level Heavenly God, but those faint divine patterns had become slightly clearer.
Second-level Divine Patterns!
Although it was only the early stage of second-level divine patterns, in terms of the density of divine essence, even an ordinary peak second-level Heavenly God might not be able to match Ye Yuan.
And this was his strong capital for challenging higher levels.
Rumble...
The door to the cultivation chamber opened again, and Ye Yuan slowly walked out.
Suddenly, a cold gleam flashed, already reaching Ye Yuan's face.
Ambush!
This strike was perfectly timed, clearly long-prepared, giving Ye Yuan no time to react.
However, Ye Yuan mobilized the law of space, faster than the opponent!
With a thought, the sword light was already drawn into the void by Ye Yuan.
Then, he clamped his hands together, directly catching the sword tip that followed.
All this happened in the blink of an eye, extremely fast.
In everyone's eyes, it was over before it even began.
"It's you? Truly, there are roads in heaven you don't take, and gates to hell you barge into! I spared your life, but instead of gratitude, you've become even more aggressive."
Ye Yuan's tone gradually turned cold.
The person before him was none other than Han Xiao.
He had gone back to nurse his injuries for over a month before fully recovering.
But the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't swallow this anger. So in the past few days, he had been waiting outside the cultivation chamber, planning to deliver a fatal blow to Ye Yuan.
He felt that Ye Yuan's kick had landed solely because of his own carelessness.
With his own third-level Heavenly God cultivation, if he launched a surprise attack, a first-level Heavenly God like Ye Yuan would surely be unable to resist!
Unfortunately, he miscalculated again.
Han Xiao thought his ambush was perfect, but even so, he still failed.
He finally realized that Ye Yuan's kick was no ambush at all.
The other party's strength was truly formidable!
He desperately tried to pull out his sword, but Ye Yuan's fingers were like iron clamps; he couldn't budge it at all.
"B-brat, what do you want? I'm a member of the Han family. If you dare touch me, you'll die horribly!" Han Xiao, seeing he was no match, could only invoke the Han family.
Ye Yuan said indifferently, "The Han family? Can the Han family be so domineering, so reckless with human life? If you want to kill, you must be prepared to be killed."
Han Xiao's gaze sharpened, and he directly abandoned his sword and fled.
Ye Yuan sneered and threw the sword in his hand.
Swish!
A cold gleam flashed, and a hole was pierced straight through Han Xiao's heart.
"So strong! He's broken through to the second-level Heavenly God. Can a second-level Heavenly God be this strong?"
"That ambush just now, even a fourth-level Heavenly God would have difficulty defending against it if caught off guard, right? This guy actually blocked it!"
...
The people outside naturally knew Han Xiao planned to ambush; they thought Ye Yuan was doomed and watched with the mindset of seeing a show.
But who would have thought that it wasn't Ye Yuan who died, but Han Xiao!
However, Ye Yuan actually dared to kill a member of the Han family; this guy really had nerve!
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Ye Yuan walked out of the Polyprime Tower and headed toward the tavern.
After several twists and turns, Ye Yuan entered a remote alley.
"You've been following me all this way; aren't you going to make a move?" Ye Yuan suddenly stopped and said indifferently.
A man in gray robes slowly emerged from the void, holding a sword as he stood.
This gray-robed man had a cold gaze and a heavy killing aura; clearly not a good person.
"Kid, you're strong, actually able to detect my trail!" Iron Eagle said coldly.
Ye Yuan curled his lip and said, "You came to kill me; don't you know I can use spatial law? What's the point of showing off your little tricks in front of me? If I'm not mistaken, you were sent by the Leng family, right?"
Iron Eagle's gaze sharpened and said, "You're clever, but unfortunately, you'll soon be a dead man!"
