Chapter 652: War of the Two Clans!

Just now, the Bear Clan had fully prepared themselves for death.

Zifeng suddenly flew into a rage, and they knew they could no longer stall.

This voice, though very rough, sounded like heavenly music.

Hearing this voice, Zifeng's expression changed. He looked intently and saw two figures appear before the crowd.

“Hey, you stinky purple jiao, you sure know how to take advantage of a crisis!”

Xiong Zhan approached Zifeng, his aura imposing.

He no longer showed any sign of illness; his entire being was at its peak! Though a bit thinner than before, his condition was indescribably good.

Seeing this, Xiong Tie looked in surprise at Ye Yuan beside Xiong Zhan, his eyes full of admiration.

This guy had actually done it, and so quickly!

If he had been even a quarter-hour later, all of them would have died at Zifeng's hands.

This old man Zifeng was no pushover; once he confirmed Xiong Zhan was in trouble, he would show no mercy.

Zifeng's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, “Old Bear, you're really fine? Impossible! Have you been setting up a false front all this time just to lure me out? Since when did you have such brains?”

Xiong Zhan was not only strong in combat; he was also quick-witted. Unlike other straightforward big bears, Xiong Zhan had a sharp mind.

Over the years, if not for Xiong Zhan's strategic planning, the Bear Clan would have been toyed to death by Zifeng long ago.

Ye Yuan had already sensed this through his conversations with Xiong Zhan.

Xiong Zhan suddenly burst into hearty laughter, feeling immensely relieved.

Seeing Xiong Zhan laughing endlessly, Zifeng said darkly, “Old Bear, what are you laughing at?”

Xiong Zhan laughed loudly, “Stinky purple jiao, if you knew the truth, you'd want to slap yourself a few times. When you came, I was still riddled with poison, nearly destroyed. If you weren't so suspicious and had attacked earlier, I really couldn't have done anything to you, hahaha!”

Xiong Zhan was laughing joyfully now, but when Ye Yuan was drawing out his poison, he couldn't laugh at all.

He had thought Ye Yuan's so-called trouble would take at least half a day or even a full day, but it only took a little over an hour.

Ye Yuan's fifth-grade Pure Sandal Sacred Flame worked surprisingly well for purifying the fire poison.

The poison-removal process was smooth; wherever the Pure Sandal Sacred Flame passed, the fire poison was instantly purified.

Xiong Zhan thought at the time, if it wasn't troublesome, how fast could this kid remove the poison?

Fortunately, Ye Yuan was really fast, and he arrived just in time. If he had been a bit later, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

At this, Zifeng's face turned like a chameleon, colors shifting constantly.

He finally understood why Xiong Tie had been dawdling with him earlier—he was buying time! Even more infuriating, because of his own suspicious nature, he had fallen for it and missed the optimal moment!

As luck would have it, at this critical moment, Xiong Zhan had recovered!

The timing was just too perfect!

Even if he had come a little later, he wouldn't be as frustrated as now.

But it was just that one step!

A miss is as good as a mile; the situation now was vastly different!

Seeing Zifeng's expression, Xiong Zhan laughed even more heartily.

The two sides had been fighting for years, with the Purple Jiao always having the upper hand. Seeing Zifeng suffer today, Xiong Zhan felt an indescribable joy.

Zifeng's gaze suddenly drifted onto Ye Yuan, and he asked with a dark face, "Don't tell me it was this brat who cured the poison on you?"

"So what? With me, Xiong Zhan, here, do you think you could harm even a single hair on his head?" Xiong Zhan said arrogantly.

Zifeng glared at Ye Yuan with venomous eyes and said, "Kid, you've got guts, daring to make an enemy of our Purple Flood Dragon Clan."

Ye Yuan shrugged and said, "I'm just an alchemist who treated a patient when I saw one. If that offends you, Lord Purple Flood Dragon, then come and hit me!"

When he said the first half, everyone, including Xiong Zhan, thought Ye Yuan was scared and backing down.

It wasn't until the last sentence came out that the bear clan couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Those words sounded so satisfying!

As for Zifeng, his face had already turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He looked coldly at Ye Yuan and said, "Good kid, you're asking for death!"

"Boom!"

The aura of a sixth-rank powerhouse suddenly erupted, and Zifeng was about to strike Ye Yuan dead with a palm.

"Old man Zifeng, your opponent is me. Bullying the younger generation—what kind of skill is that?"

How could Xiong Zhan let Zifeng succeed? He directly intervened to block him, and the two instantly became locked in battle.

When two sixth-rank powerhouses fought, the momentum was truly earth-shattering. The others quickly retreated to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

While locked in battle with Xiong Zhan, Zifeng roared, "Zilin, what are you standing there for? Kill that brat!"

Zilin was none other than the young master of the Purple Flood Dragon Clan.

At that shout, how could the bear clan and the Purple Flood Dragon Clan remain idle? The two clans officially began their great battle!

This time, the Purple Flood Dragon Clan had also brought another sixth-rank grand elder, and the bear clan's sixth-rank grand elder now appeared as well, engaging him in battle.

Having received Zifeng's orders, Zilin headed straight for Ye Yuan.

But Xiong Tie had long regarded Ye Yuan as his benefactor; how could he let Zilin get close to Ye Yuan? He directly stepped in to block him.

For a time, the battle cries of the two clans shook the heavens.

A battle of this scale was not commonly seen in the outside world.

With so many fifth-rank and sixth-rank powerhouses fighting, even the Boundless Realm and the Hurricane Realm combined couldn't muster such a scale.

At this moment, Ye Yuan had become the most idle person on the battlefield, even growing bored.

Occasionally, some reckless fool would come looking for trouble, but he casually dealt with them.

Apart from a few sixth-rank powerhouses, there weren't many here who could threaten him.

Even if Zilin himself came for him, he wouldn't take it seriously.

Ye Yuan's attention was now focused on the great battle in the sky.

After refining over a hundred fire source crystals, Xiong Zhan's strength should have advanced by leaps and bounds. However, due to the fire poison, he had been unable to break through to the sixth-rank mid stage.

But after Ye Yuan helped him clear the fire poison, the effects of Xiong Zhan's absorption of fire source power began to manifest.

The Fire Source True Bear was originally a fire-attribute demon beast. After absorbing so many fire source crystals, it was only a matter of time before Xiong Zhan broke through to the sixth-rank mid stage.

Even though he hadn't broken through yet, the Purple Flood Dragon was no longer his match.

In the sky, the more the Purple Flood Dragon fought, the more alarmed he became. When had Xiong Zhan's strength become so formidable?

"You... you're about to break through?" the Purple Flood Dragon said in shock.

Xiong Zhan laughed wildly, "Thanks to you, after I beat you to a pulp, I can break through in peace!"
