“Chen Fei, still no sign of Ye Chenxing?”
Su Ran’s beautiful brows furrowed deeply. A Qi Manipulator at the level of Ye Chenxing brought too much pressure to her.
“No!” Chen Fei also felt the pressure.
“This can’t go on much longer. Let’s move and see if we can detect Ye Chenxing nearby.”
Su Ran planned to take a risky approach. If they didn’t take action, neither of them would be able to progress and improve their strength. Eventually, they’d be killed by Ye Chenxing.
Chen Fei immediately understood Su Ran’s intentions. While he knew it was dangerous, he also knew that avoiding the situation wouldn’t benefit them. They had to figure out if Ye Chenxing was nearby and determine his level of strength after using the secret realm’s opportunities to recover.
“Be careful, my wife. I’ll catch Ye Chenyu; he’s at least a bargaining chip.” Chen Fei agreed with Su Ran’s suggestion.
“Mm!” Su Ran nodded, and the two immediately began to move.
Without Chen Fei’s sensory support, Su Ran could only sense within a range of one thousand meters unless she activated her Phoenix Bloodline projection.
Even so, that range was beyond the sensory capabilities of many Sixth-Rank True Spirit Masters.
“What kind of secret technique has Ye Chenxing placed on me?”
“I must break his secret technique, or this will be a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.”
Su Ran continued forward, thinking deeply about how to uncover and break the secret technique Ye Chenxing had used on her.
Meanwhile, Chen Fei and Su Ran didn’t venture far but stopped in a patch of grass. Using the spiritual cat’s sensing ability, they locked onto Ye Chenyu’s position, planning to capture the ambitious and ruthless city lord.
Ye Chenyu had no idea that Chen Fei and Su Ran were already moving. The only thing he could sense was Su Ran’s location. He couldn’t detect Chen Fei, who was lying in ambush.
Likewise, Ye Chenyu was unaware that his own movements had already been exposed, as Su Ran was deliberately avoiding him.
At this moment, Ye Chenyu believed that Su Ran was still searching for an opportunity, unaware that he had already arrived.
“Su Ran…”
“Chen Yang…”
“I will give you both a big surprise this time!”
In his mind, Ye Chenyu was eager to complete his younger brother’s final wishes and fulfill his ambition for the Ye family to rise.
Quickly, Ye Chenyu was only five hundred meters away from Chen Fei.
At this distance, a Fifth-Rank or higher True Spirit Master would have easily detected Chen Fei’s aura.
However, Ye Chenyu, with his cultivation at the First-Rank True Spirit Master level, didn’t sense anything until he was within one hundred meters.
Just then, Chen Fei moved closer and emerged from the grass, standing only ten meters away from Ye Chenyu.
“City Lord Ye, long time no see!” Chen Fei said coldly, his iron mask giving him the appearance of the newly prominent figure of Huangwu City, “Chen Yang.”
Ye Chenyu, seeing Chen Fei, was clearly surprised. He hadn’t expected someone to be waiting for him here.
“Chen Yang!”
“Did you already discover me?”
Ye Chenyu instantly realized that his movements had been sensed. However, Su Ran was still far away, thousands of meters away. How could they have such extraordinary sensory abilities?
“Where is your younger brother?”
“Bring him out!”
“No way, you will be my puppet!”
Chen Fei stared at Ye Chenyu with full confidence. He wasn’t in a rush to strike and even considered using his technique to control Ye Chenyu and use him as leverage against Ye Chenxing.
“Haha!”
“You don’t deserve my younger brother to intervene.”
“You want to control me? Feel free to try.”
Seeing Chen Yang’s high-and-mighty attitude, which completely ignored him, Ye Chenyu sneered in disdain.
“Then I will do as you wish!”
“Let me first cripple your dantian!”
Chen Fei couldn’t understand where Ye Chenyu, a First-Rank True Spirit Master, got such confidence. Unless Ye Chenxing was nearby, there was no reason for him to act so recklessly.
No matter the reason, if he captured Ye Chenyu, the truth would be revealed.
The sword light of the Bright Shadow Sword erupted, transforming into a beam of light that struck towards Ye Chenyu’s dantian.
In the mere span of ten meters, the sword light reached Ye Chenyu’s abdomen in an instant.
Clang!
A crisp sound echoed as Ye Chenyu unsheathed his longsword and effortlessly blocked the strike with ease.
“Mm?”
Chen Fei stared at Ye Chenyu in disbelief. He couldn’t fathom how Ye Chenyu, at only the First-Rank True Spirit Master level, could block his sword.
This strike hadn’t used any martial arts techniques, relying solely on the strength of his own spiritual power. Even a Fifth-Rank True Spirit Master would have had difficulty blocking it at such close range.
Yet Ye Chenyu did it effortlessly, as though it was a casual move, showing power far beyond a Fifth-Rank True Spirit Master.
“Third-Rank True Spirit Master cultivation, with Fifth-Rank True Spirit Master strength.”
“No wonder Li Qingyi of the Wanguo Chamber of Commerce holds you in such high regard. You truly have potential as a martial spirit master. It seems you could reach great heights.”
“Too bad you decided to oppose my Ye family instead of learning from Li Qingyi and turning a blind eye.”
Ye Chenyu said coldly, his eyes filled with malice.
“You…” Chen Fei was shocked. Ye Chenyu was definitely not right—he exuded a sinister aura, as if he had fallen to demonic practices.
“Have you fallen to demonic arts?”
Chen Fei instinctively took a few steps back.
“Now you want to run? It’s too late.”
“The rise of my Ye family starts with the execution of Huangwu City’s new noble, ‘Chen Yang.'”
Seeing that Chen Fei didn’t intend to beg for mercy, Ye Chenyu didn’t want to waste any more time. With a thought, a massive surge of demonic energy erupted from his body.
His body rapidly grew larger, tearing through his clothes, and within moments, he transformed from a man of over a meter tall into a giant three meters high.
His muscles bulged, and black light enveloped him, making him look like a demon shrouded in demonic energy.
His hands and feet grew sharp claws, each a foot long, covered in black light. His eyes turned a bloody red, and his face bulged, veins popping, exuding an overwhelmingly sinister and terrifying aura.
He had fallen to demonic practices!
He had transformed into a half-human, half-demon form!
The dark light surrounding him shimmered like cold, bone-chilling ice or the bloodthirsty beasts of the night.
