Chapter 158: Tell Yang Jia to Get the Hell Out Here!

Not far away, those Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses were filled with confusion, as they did not recognize the woman before them.

　　Si Fanyou fixed her gaze on the black-robed elder leading the group, “You only know of the Yang family, but have you ever considered what it means that he was able to defeat Yang Jia?”

　　The black-robed elder and the others fell silent.

　　At their level, they were naturally not foolish people. The fact that Ye Tianming could defeat Yang Jia meant that the forces behind him were certainly no simple matter.

　　The black-robed elder suddenly shook his head, “Miss, we know his background is not simple, but we have chosen to stand on the Yang family’s side.”

　　The Yang family!

　　How terrifyingly powerful was this family?

　　They had once directly stormed the Real World!

　　Moreover, the conditions offered by Guanxuan Academy and Xianbao Pavilion were simply impossible for them to refuse. These people had in truth spent their entire lives unable to advance any further, and if they could still rely on themselves to move forward, they would never wade into these murky waters.

　　It was precisely because they knew they could no longer advance on their own that they had no choice but to seek outside help.

　　They could never reach the Real World on their own in this lifetime, but Guanxuan Academy and Xianbao Pavilion could get them there.

　　The black-robed elder looked toward Si Fanyou and Qingshu, “Ladies, you can already sense that more and more Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses are rushing here. With your strength, you simply cannot protect him. Let alone you two, in this universe, no one can protect a person that Guanxuan Academy has marked for death.”

　　Si Fanyou turned to look at Qingshu, “Take him and go.”

　　Qingshu glanced at her, then immediately took Ye Tianming and turned to leave.

　　”Stop them!”

　　The black-robed elder’s voice fell as he took the lead and charged forward.

　　Not far away, Si Fanyou fixed her gaze on the black-robed elder, her face expressionless, “Suppress!”

　　Boom!

　　In an instant, the spacetime region where the black-robed elder stood collapsed inch by inch, and terrifying streams of Great Dao power surged like a tide toward the black-robed elder, suppressing him. In a split second, Si Fanyou had forcibly pinned the black-robed elder within that special region of spacetime.

　　The black-robed elder stared at Si Fanyou through the spacetime barrier in shock, “Words made manifest as law, you……you are from the Past Sect.”

　　Si Fanyou said nothing, merely waving her hand. Around her, more than a dozen Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses stepped forward.

　　The top-tier powerhouses of the Past Sect!

　　The black-robed elder’s expression turned extremely ugly. He had never imagined that both the Tianxing Civilization and the Past Sect would choose to defect.

　　Had they gone mad?

　　The other Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses were also stunned. The Past Sect held a position within Guanxuan Academy no weaker than that of the Sword Sect, and none of them had expected it to defect as well.

　　Just then, a phantom suddenly appeared in the scene, looking toward Si Fanyou, “Kill.”

　　The Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses present all hesitated somewhat.

　　The phantom glanced at them, “You want the rewards but don’t want to risk your lives? Is there such a good deal in this world?”

　　One Circle-Breaking realm powerhouse said in a low voice, “Sir, once this is done, will Guanxuan Academy truly allow us to enter the Real World?”

　　The phantom said, “Naturally. Rest assured, the Academy and our Xianbao Pavilion have always valued our reputation above all else. We will not go back on our word and become the laughingstock of all.”

　　Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. The reputation of Guanxuan Academy and Xianbao Pavilion had always been exceptionally good, especially Xianbao Pavilion, whose credibility was perfect.

　　If Guanxuan Academy and Xianbao Pavilion were to break their word, they would undoubtedly become the laughingstock of the entire universe.

　　Reassured, the Circle-Breaking realm powerhouses in the scene immediately charged toward Si Fanyou. They were not fighting for Xianbao Pavilion or Guanxuan Academy, but for themselves, and so every single one of them fought with everything they had.

　　The phantom calmly glanced at Si Fanyou, then turned and walked away into the distance.

　　Soon, a great battle erupted on the scene.

　　On the other side.

　　Qingshu carried Ye Tianming and sprinted wildly through the star river, pushing her speed to the absolute limit, for she had already realized that this time, Guanxuan Academy and Xianbao Pavilion were determined to kill Ye Tianming at any cost, and more and more powerhouses would keep coming.

　　Soon, Qingshu brought Ye Tianming to an unknown star region. The moment they entered, her expression darkened.

　　She stopped, staring fixedly into the distance. Not far away, spacetime rippled and writhed, and soon a phantom drifted out.

　　The phantom slowly solidified into the form of a middle-aged man.

　　The middle-aged man looked at Qingshu, “Miss Qingshu, this is your last chance. If you persist in your ways, both you and the Tianxing Civilization will be erased from this world.”

　　Qingshu smiled, “Who gave you the nerve?”

　　The middle-aged man said calmly, “I know that the greatest backing of your Tianxing Civilization lies in your former chief executives, but I hope you understand that this world belongs to the Yang family.”

　　Qingshu stared at the middle-aged man, “Does the Yang family know what you people are doing?”

　　The middle-aged man smiled, “Miss Qingshu, you have read many books, but you do not understand……”

　　As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Tianming beside her, “Young Master Ye should understand.”

　　Ye Tianming said, “Miss Qingshu, there is no point in saying anything more. Because their actions have certainly received the tacit approval of the Real World.”

　　Qingshu was immediately taken aback, “How is that possible?”

　　The middle-aged man glanced at Ye Tianming and smiled, “Truly sharp-minded. I’m impressed.”

　　Then he looked toward Qingshu, “Miss Qingshu, if you leave now, once this Ye Tianming is dead, we can share a portion of his Myriad Beings Law with the Tianxing Civilization. What do you say?”

　　Qingshu stared at the middle-aged man, “Your true goal is the Myriad Beings Law.”

　　The middle-aged man shook his head, “Not only that. This Young Master Ye not only slaughtered the great families, but also declared his intent to kill the Young Master……he is openly provoking the Academy, provoking the Yang family. A person like this, we will never allow to live. This concerns the dignity of the Academy, and the dignity of the Yang family.”

　　Qingshu was about to say something more when Ye Tianming suddenly said, “He is stalling for time.”

　　Qingshu turned to look at Ye Tianming, who said calmly, “He is deliberately stalling for time. He is waiting for someone……most likely someone from the Real World.”

　　Qingshu’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Those above cannot come down.”

　　The middle-aged man smiled, “Young Master Ye, you are truly brilliant. I am genuinely impressed, truly……”

　　Then his smile suddenly vanished, “You really must die. Otherwise, the Young Master may lose to you a third time, or even a fourth!”

　　Ye Tianming stared at the middle-aged man, “A person who fears defeat is not worthy of being the strongest in this world. The truly strongest never fear defeat. On the contrary, they only hope to be defeated!”

　　The middle-aged man smiled, “Young Master Ye, what you speak of, I do not understand, nor do I wish to.”

　　As he spoke, he waved his hand, and all around, more than a dozen powerhouses suddenly burst out.

　　Qingshu did not hesitate for a single moment, taking Ye Tianming and turning to run.

　　The middle-aged man suddenly stepped forward, and with that one step, the star river was torn apart outright. A terrifying force instantly surged toward Qingshu from behind.

　　The speed was too fast. Qingshu could not evade.

　　With no other option, Qingshu had to stop, then spun around sharply, gripping her sword with both hands and slashing forward.

　　Whoosh!

　　A streak of sword light flared.

　　Boom!

　　The spacetime region of the star river where the two stood exploded outright, and the terrifying sword pressure and Great Dao power spread outward in layers in all directions, utterly fearsome.

　　Qingshu struck again with her sword, forcibly halting the shockwaves that had been bearing down on her, while Ye Tianming stood just behind her.

　　At this moment, the middle-aged man vanished from his position again. Qingshu’s eyes narrowed slightly. Between her brows, the Tianxing Life Tree emerged, and in the next instant, wave after wave of terrifying aura surged violently from within her. She gripped her sword with both hands and slashed forward once more with full force.

　　Boom!

　　That single sword strike sent the middle-aged man stumbling back repeatedly. When he finally stopped, he looked down at his right hand, where a deep sword scar had been carved.

　　The middle-aged man raised his head to look at Qingshu not far away. The aura emanating from her was surging wildly and without restraint.

　　The middle-aged man said, “Worthy of being the supreme divine artifact of the Tianxing Civilization. Impressive……”

　　As he spoke, he waved his hand, “Move in.”

　　The moment his voice fell, every single powerhouse swarmed forward together.

　　Qingshu took a deep breath. She knew she had absolutely no way to withstand the combined assault of so many powerhouses, yet she felt not the slightest fear. She charged forward, transforming into a towering streak of sword light ten thousand zhang long and surging ahead.

　　Boom!

　　The towering sword light shattered in an instant, and Qingshu was forced back tens of thousands of zhang. The moment she stopped, a trace of fresh blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

　　The middle-aged man and the others did not continue targeting Qingshu, but instead charged directly toward Ye Tianming, who stood not far away.

　　Everyone gave everything they had!

　　Ye Tianming was the one they truly needed to kill!

　　But just at that moment, an utterly cold and indifferent voice suddenly rang out from nearby, “Bullying the weak with numbers like this, who gave you the audacity? Tell Yang Jia to get the hell out here!!”

　　As the voice fell, the spacetime beside Ye Tianming suddenly split open, and then a woman slowly stepped out.
