Chapter 1949: Slaughtering the Innocent!

"No, we can't keep stalemating like this, or none of us will get away!"

Lu Xin knew that under these circumstances, they simply couldn't succeed.

Neither Ye Yuan nor the True God Fourth Layer before him was an easy opponent.

He had to escape and send word back, so that Lord Yingfeng could dispatch stronger experts.

With this thought, Lu Xin gritted his teeth, and with a thought, silently undid the Space Lock.

Swish!

Lu Xin's figure vanished instantly,遁入虚空之中.

A True God Fourth Layer expert could traverse ten thousand miles in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, he was out of Tianying Imperial City.

Bai Tong saw this and merely sneered. With a step, she also disappeared.

Over there, Ye Yuan, extremely sensitive to spatial laws, sensed the moment the Space Lock was undone.

Seeing Bai Tong give chase, Ye Yuan called out, "Leave him alive!"

"Don't worry!"

From the void came Bai Tong's voice, then silence.

Meanwhile, from the City Lord's Mansion came the angry curses of Xu Mao and the other three.

"Lu Xin, you'll die a miserable death!"

"You treacherous, faithless scum! You'll come to no good end!"

…

Lu Xin had fled without even a word, plunging the four of them into a desperate situation.

With the space opened, Ye Yuan's figure became even more unpredictable.

Shuttling through space, combined with the might of the Qiankun Dragon Claw, he was unstoppable.

Even with the four joining forces, they were suppressed by Ye Yuan, unable to fight back.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

From the City Lord's Mansion came violent explosions, immediately alarming those outside.

Sensing the terrifying fluctuations within, Ning Tianping's face turned pale.

He finally realized what was wrong!

Ye Yuan had sent him out to protect him.

A battle at the True God level was something he simply couldn't participate in.

The four fought fiercely, moving from the City Lord's Mansion all the way to the high sky.

Ye Yuan was like a war god, still vigorous and fierce even surrounded by four experts.

This scene naturally fell into the eyes of the martial artists in the city, leaving them all astonished.

"Am I seeing things? Those are four True God Second Layer experts, and Lord Ye Yuan is taking them on alone?"

"Lord Ye Yuan seems to have reached the Sixth Revolution Golden Body, but can the Sixth Revolution Golden Body be this strong?"

"The Sixth Revolution Golden Body is only slightly stronger than peers of the same rank; being this strong is clearly impossible."

"I've heard that body cultivators have an ultimate golden body called the Perfect Golden Body. It's the final state of body cultivation. Could it be... that Lord Ye Yuan has achieved the Perfect Golden Body?"

…

The martial artists in the city speculated, and soon someone guessed the Perfect Golden Body, leaving them all shocked.

Ye Yuan's martial cultivation was clearly not yet at the True God realm, so this was the only explanation.

The Perfect Sixth Revolution Golden Body—this legendary realm—Lord Ye Yuan had actually cultivated it successfully!

Everyone gazed at that flawless figure, filled with admiration.

But what was the deal with these mysterious True God experts?

Over there, the battle was raging. Xu Mao's eyes darted around, and he suddenly called out, "Stop attacking together! Let's scatter and slaughter the city's civilians. Let's see if he can kill all four of us at once!"

Ye Yuan's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

What he feared most was these people attacking the city's civilians, and now they had indeed stooped to such a low, stopping at nothing to achieve their goal.

The other three were delighted at the idea.

They had been beaten senseless by Ye Yuan, each thinking only of escape. It was Xu Mao who had the bright idea to use this method to pressure Ye Yuan.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Without a moment's hesitation, the four flew off in four completely different directions.

Although Ye Yuan was proficient in spatial laws, he couldn't cover all four directions at once.

In a rage, Ye Yuan punched out fiercely.

In the distance, one of the assassins was sent crashing down by Ye Yuan's punch!

But his figure swayed; though severely injured, he was still alive.

A True God Second Layer martial artist was simply too strong!

With his current strength, he could dominate one-on-one, but killing with a single blow was clearly unlikely.

In the time it took for that punch, the other three had already put distance between themselves and Ye Yuan.

They had never planned for all to escape; it was just a matter of whose luck ran out.

Ye Yuan had injured one, but he couldn't simultaneously harm the other three.

"Hahaha... Ye Yuan, let's see how long it takes you to kill all four of us! Go!" Xu Mao laughed wildly.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three sharp sword beams streaked across the sky, heading straight for the bustling districts.

Ye Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he unhesitatingly used spatial teleportation.

Boom!

One sword beam struck Ye Yuan, sending him crashing into the street.

But the other two sword beams, Ye Yuan was powerless to stop.

Boom! Boom!

Hundreds of martial artists were annihilated under those two sword beams.

To ordinary martial artists, a True God Second Layer expert was like a god.

Most in the imperial city were at the Divine Lord or Return to Void realm; how could they withstand such a terrifying attack?

Wherever the sword beams passed, there was devastation!

"Hahaha... How satisfying!" Xu Mao laughed heartily.

"If I'd known this kid was so foolish, we could have just grabbed a few people and he'd have complied. Why go through all this trouble?" another assassin laughed.

From amidst the rubble, Ye Yuan shot into the sky, eyes blazing with fury, now bloodshot.

The attack did no harm to him, but how could the city's civilians withstand such a fearsome blow?

"Again! Again!"

Xu Mao laughed as he decisively struck again with his sword.

"Stop!"

Ye Yuan roared, teleporting once more, and without surprise, was sent crashing down again.

But in two other places, many more martial artists were killed, not even having time to flee.

The city had descended into chaos; wherever the sword beams reached, there was nothing but rubble.

"Stop! I'll go with you!" Ye Yuan roared.

Xu Mao gestured for the other two to pause.

Ye Yuan rose again and flew toward Xu Mao.

Xu Mao, already terrified by Ye Yuan's ferocity, backed away repeatedly as Ye Yuan approached, shouting, "Stop!"

Ye Yuan had no choice but to stop, though his eyes were filled with icy coldness.

Seeing that Ye Yuan had indeed stopped, Xu Mao grew smug again and laughed, "Heh heh, Master Ye, you're so powerful. Don't come too close; I'm scared!"

Ye Yuan stared at him coldly and said in a low voice, "I'll go with you. Don't harm the innocent anymore!"

Xu Mao said smugly, "If you'd been this obedient earlier, they wouldn't have had to die. Heh, but... we can't trust you. You're too strong! If you go back on your word, we'd have no way to deal with you."

Ye Yuan said coldly, "I can seal my blood energy and close my divine sea! But you must swear a Heavenly Dao oath that you will not go back on your word and harm the city's civilians!"

Xu Mao's smug expression grew even more pronounced upon hearing this.
