953: Chapter 946: Going Crazy Once 953: Chapter 946: Going Crazy Once As Ye Chenfeng and the others left the ruins of the Ghost King Sect, the sky outside gradually darkened.
The sun, setting to the west, cast its final glow, brilliantly and beautifully illuminating the horizon.
An occasional cold breeze made the leaves rustle noisily.
After the members of the Cloud Soaring Palace, the Earth Demon Hall, and the Yun Tian Sect emerged from the pond, the people from these three major sects were tightly watching Ye Chenfeng, Xia Zining, and the members of Red Flame Valley.
Now that these individuals were out of danger, they were certainly not willing to let Ye Chenfeng go.
Li Dongtian, the leader of the Cloud Soaring Palace, focused his gaze on Lie Yan of Red Flame Valley and said, “Valley Master Lie, now that your son has been revived, and this little beast, Ye Chenfeng, has led us out of the Ghost King Sect’s ruins as well.
If your Red Flame Valley would stop protecting these beasts like Ye Chenfeng, then my Cloud Soaring Palace can overlook past grievances.”
Before the Valley Master Lie Yan could speak, Lie Yang, the young master of Red Flame Valley, interjected, “Dream on, Brother Ye is my lifesaver, Lie Yang.
How could my father possibly betray him after crossing the river?
Do you think the people of our Red Flame Valley are as shameless as those from your Cloud Soaring Palace?”
Lie Yan looked at his naive son and could only smile bitterly and shake his head.
Although he didn’t want to oppose the three major sects, what other choice did he have now?
From the moment he killed the young Sect Leader Li Zihao of the Cloud Soaring Palace, it was destined that there would be no reconciliation between Red Flame Valley and the Cloud Soaring Palace.
Lie Yan knew Li Dongtian’s nature too well; although Li Dongtian was speaking nicely now, once he settled Ye Chenfeng’s matter, he would likely find ways to take action against the Red Flame Valley.
If Lie Yan hadn’t killed Li Zihao, he might have abandoned Ye Chenfeng, after all, this concerned the survival of his entire Red Flame Valley.
Unfortunately, Ye Chenfeng, the young man, was too meticulous, foreseeing all possible developments, which was why he had Lie Yan do something that would leave him without worries earlier in a sealed space.
In a sense, although Lie Yan somewhat disliked Ye Chenfeng’s methods, he had to admit Ye Chenfeng’s wisdom.
Standing to the left of Ye Chenfeng, Lie Yan resolutely shook his head and said, “Li Dongtian, do you think I, Lie Yan, am a three-year-old child?
Which sect among the top powers doesn’t know of your ruthless tactics in Cloud Soaring Palace?
You wouldn’t pursue the matter of me killing your son?”
Li Dongtian slightly furrowed his brows; indeed, he had no intention of sparing the Red Flame Valley, but now he only wanted to capture Ye Chenfeng and acquire the inheritance of the Ghost King Sect.
As Lie Yan’s words just finished, Ye Chenfeng provocatively looked at Li Dongtian and mockingly said, “Even if Red Flame Valley doesn’t protect me, do you think you, with your initial stage Primordial Heaven strength, can capture me?
You can’t even withstand one move against me.
How about a one-on-one duel?
What do you say, or are you too scared?
I think you’re just a coward.”
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s arrogant words, Li Dongtian was so infuriated that his face turned immensely red.
He didn’t respond directly, knowing that he was indeed not a match for Ye Chenfeng.
He had been too greedy for the inheritance and riches of the Ghost King Sect, causing him to overlook this fact, his gaze shifting to Mo Wusha and Great Elder Gui Tianlin of the Earth Demon Hall instead.
Mo Wusha, seeing Li Dongtian’s embarrassment, smirked coldly and said, “Valley Master Lie, I don’t want to make things hard for you.
My Earth Demon Hall just requires Ye Chenfeng to hand over the Ghost King Sect’s inheritance and the woman Xia Zining to me, then we won’t get involved in this matter.”
As soon as Mo Wusha spoke, the faces of Li Dongtian and Wang Zhongtian from the Yun Tian Sect all subtly changed.
Mo Wusha obviously intended to monopolize the Ghost King Sect’s inheritance, and without the protection of the Earth Demon Hall, they would definitely be instantly defeated by Ye Chenfeng and Red Flame Valley, so they all angrily glared at Mo Wusha.
Li Dongtian of Cloud Soaring Palace exclaimed, “Mo Wusha, what do you mean by this?”
Mo Wusha coldly said, “Li Dongtian, now that your son Li Zihao is dead, there’s no chance for anyone from your Cloud Soaring Palace to ascend to heaven in a single bound.
My Earth Demon Hall sincerely doesn’t need to be wary of you anymore.”
After speaking, Mo Wusha’s gaze continued to rest on Lie Yan, asking, “Valley Master Lie, what have you decided?”
Lie Yan glanced at Xia Zining, whose hand was tightly held by Ye Chenfeng.
Mo Wusha’s character was even more unpredictable than Li Dongtian’s, and moreover, he knew Ye Chenfeng would never agree to hand over Xia Zining.
Gritting his teeth, he said, “Mo Wusha, there’s no need for further words.
Young Brother Ye Chenfeng is a benefactor of our Red Flame Valley, and we will never commit an act of treachery.”
Holding Xia Zining’s hand, Ye Chenfeng felt relieved after hearing Lie Yan’s words.
He also knew that Red Flame Valley had now completely broken with the other three major sects, meaning Red Flame Valley could only follow him, Ye Chenfeng, all the way into darkness, which was actually good for him.
After Lie Yan rejected Mo Wusha’s proposal, True Energy Force started to surge inside Mo Wusha, and an aura from the Primordial Heaven Middle Stage slowly emanated from his body.
At the same time, Ghost Tianlin, the Great Elder of the Earth Demon Hall, elevated his aura to the Primordial Heaven Peak Stage.
Seeing Mo Wusha and Lie Yan’s talk fall through, Li Dongtian of the Cloud Soaring Palace and Wang Zhongtian of the Yun Tian Sect, among others, secretly breathed a sigh of relief; they still needed to rely on the Earth Demon Hall for now!
Li Dongtian also raised his aura to the Primordial Heaven Initial Stage and hastily said, “Mo Wusha, we are now in the same boat, so let’s not have any other cunning plans.”
As people from the three major sects collectively raised their True Energy Force, Ye Chenfeng and the denizens of Red Flame Valley hesitated not at all to elevate their aura.
The strength of both parties was now quite comparable, and neither was willing to initiate a deadly battle here.
Lie Yan, the Valley Master from Red Flame Valley, remarked, “What now?
Do you really think Red Flame Valley is afraid of you?
If it comes to it, we can all go down together.”
Mo Wusha clenched his fists tightly.
After hesitating for a moment, his aura began slowly to recede.
Turning to Gui Tianlin, he said, “Great Elder, let’s go.”
As Mo Wusha and Gui Tianlin turned to leave, Li Dongtian of the Cloud Soaring Palace, Wang Zhongtian of the Yun Tian Sect, and Fang Zhiyong of the Tianshan Sect also tightly followed them, choosing not to confront Ye Chenfeng and the others head-on.
When the people of the three major sects vanished from Ye Chenfeng’s sight, Lie Yang, the young master of Red Flame Valley, chuckled and said, “Ha, the folks from Cloud Soaring Palace, Earth Demon Hall, and Yun Tian Sect are nothing special—just a bunch of weaklings.”
Hearing his son’s words, Lie Yan sighed deeply and said, “Things might get troublesome now.
We couldn’t subdue them just now, and they couldn’t subdue us either, but once they return to their respective sects, we might have to face a joint siege from the three major sects.”
Holding Xia Zining’s hand, Ye Chenfeng said, “Valley Master Lie, perhaps the situation isn’t as bad as you think.
We can continue to cooperate moving forward.”
Lie Yan looked at Ye Chenfeng for a long time before responding, “Young man, no offense, but just by yourself, you wouldn’t be much help.”
“Valley Master Lie, it’s not just me.
I have under my command twenty high-level experts in the Sky-Breaking Realm and a hundred and twenty in the Innate Realm.
Except for not having any experts in the Primordial Heaven Realm, the power of my Sky-Breaking Realm and Innate Realm experts far exceeds some of the top forces here.”
Having paused for a moment, Ye Chenfeng continued, “Moreover, I acquired some special things from the Ghost King Sect.
My people are all in Tianxing City, and Valley Master Lie, if you concentrate your Red Flame Valley’s forces in Tianxing City, even if we cannot defeat the three major sects, I believe I have a way to ensure your safety.”
What Ye Chenfeng relied on, of course, was the Complete Tome of Formations and the Heaven’s Illusionary Formation.
Lie Yan, having heard how many experts Ye Chenfeng had, was already shocked.
Hearing that Ye Chenfeng could guarantee their safety, he slowly began to see hope.
Since Ye Chenfeng had such forces at his disposal, Red Flame Valley might as well take a chance.
With resolve, Lie Yan declared, “Alright, young friend, this time Red Flame Valley will join you in your madness.
I only hope you will lead us not into Hell but into the light.”
