Yao Chen remained silent. Together with Yao Tian, he continued listening to the grievances of the Ice King's daughter."Do you remember that the Yao clan was slaughtered ten years ago... And rumor has it that Xiao Ling seized his meridian orb? Now the young master has returned... His cultivation has even reached the Middle God realm. Father asked, is there anyone who can match his genius? And you, you are only at the High God realm, but how long have you been cultivating?""This..."With a faint smile, Yao Chen and Yao Tian chose not to interfere. The two immediately stepped into the teleportation array, followed by the Ice King and his party.Wuuuuuuuush!They strolled casually toward the end of the white point of light, which was none other than the exit where they would emerge.A mysterious figure appeared high in the sky above the Martial Arts Pagoda.It was Lord Hwang—a cultivator deeply feared in the past who had long since gone into seclusion."How intriguing. What is my reason

Until shortly after they truly arrived at the southern border, Yao Chen suddenly raised his hand to halt their progress, then turned to give instructions."Divide into two groups... The first will neutralize the central region of the south with me... The second group will subjugate the entire outer perimeter. Remember, those who surrender are to be utilized... Against those who resist, show no mercy..."Yao Tian cupped his fists respectfully."Young Master, is there anything else?""Do not let news of this attack spread... I know that none of the three regions—south, east, and west—have a ruler right now because they are all busy kissing Bai Long's ass. Remember our objective: to give them an unforgettable surprise.""Understood, Young Master..."The ten elders dispatched by Yao Tian began to split off. Yao Chen glanced briefly at the other ten elders awaiting his command."Let us move...""Yes, Sir!"SWOOOOOSH!Shooting forward at imperceptible speed, a vast shield—a powerful array i

"Meaning, Young Master...""Do you remember my main body? It was indeed incapable of cultivation... But by fusing this Demon Body with my main body, its power becomes unfathomable... I should still be able to handle three-star or four-star High God practitioners."Hearing this explanation, Yao Tian nodded slowly.Peak Intermediate God cultivators were indeed plentiful. However, High God cultivators were growing increasingly scarce due to the constant bloodshed and power struggles across the Sky Continent.It was impossible for the Xiao Clan, or even any of the major factions in the Sky Continent, to willingly sacrifice a High God practitioner.Flying steadily through the sky, Yao Chen stared toward a border. That very border served as the central command hub for the Northern Ruler's domain."Still just as it used to be... Bustling, yet peaceful..."Yao Tian didn't reply, but he readied himself to launch an attack."There's no need for violence... Why don't we put on a little show to m

Yao Chen raised his left hand as a surge of Heavenly Flame ignited, heat searing enough to scorch the skin. Sensing the danger, Bai Long instantly pulled back.WOOOOOOSH!Grasping only empty air, Yao Chen let out a faint smirk."Ah... so it’s because of this formidable flame that you’re so confident you can face me?" Bai Long’s brow furrowed.He was deeply curious about the identity of the flame—one that triggered such intense emotion and filled his body with an ominous foreboding."It seems I underestimated you... But that doesn't mean I can't handle you!"WOOOOOOSH!Closing his eyes, an explosion of black lightning erupted from Bai Long’s body.CRACKLE! CRACKLE!"The Heavenly Lightning Armor?! Bai Long has mastered Heavenly-grade Lightning?!"The watching practitioners in the distance erupted into gasps of admiration."Grandfather, look! Allying with the Xiao Clan was the right choice! Offending them will only bring complete destruction!" Jiu Nan argued hastily."Exactly... The Xiao

The physical transformation within Yao Chen unfolded as the dust began drifting with the wind. His left eyeball turned pitch-black, while his right shone a brilliant gold—the unique hallmark of uniting the forms of both God and Demon."What technique is that... Why does just his aura make my heart tremble..." Hou Yi took a slight step back.Bai Long, however, did not share his hesitation."So what if he's exceptional? The two of us together are more than enough to kill him...."Hou Yi nodded in agreement, and both of them charged toward Yao Chen, who merely offered a cold smirk before stomping his foot.WOOOOOOOOOOSH!His body flickered in a blur of motion, rushing directly to meet his two opponents while slapping the open air before them.KRAAAAAACK!BOOOOOOOOM!A terrifying, immensely powerful wave of energy swept out, blasting both of them in opposite directions. Recovering quickly, Bai Long drew his god-slaying sword and shot forward once more in a zigzag pattern.Seeing Bai Long
