Chapter 19 - Life-Death

Ye Yang turned his head to look in the direction of the voice and saw two figures, one in front and one behind, quickly rushing over.

The two of them were extremely fast, and in a short period of time, they were already in front of them. Everyone then realised that the one in front was the gray-robed expert who appeared earlier.

The one who followed closely behind was a middle aged man disguised as a Law Enforcement Elder, the one in front who shouted was him.

It turned out that even though the two of them were fighting outside, the Ye Clan's situation had changed a lot.

The gray-robed man never thought that Ye Yang would be able to create miracles along the way and destroy all of his opponents' techniques.

Seeing that he was on the verge of failure, he suddenly faced the middle-aged man with his full strength and borrowed the recoil to float backwards. Then, he turned around and dashed towards Ye Yang.

When the middle-aged man saw this, he was greatly shocked. His battle power was on par with the grey-robed man, and it was difficult for him to defeat him. However, even if the grey-robed man wanted to get rid of him, he could not stop him.

Seeing him rush towards Ye Yang, they immediately understood his intentions and quickly warned him.

Ye Yang saw the face of the grey-robed person and was about to run away. All of a sudden, he felt his body tighten as a strong aura locked onto him. It was as if he was being pressed down by a huge rock and couldn't move at all.

Ye Yang knew that it was impossible for him to escape from a warrior rank expert like him with his aura locked on.

Ye Yang clenched his teeth, suppressing the fear in his heart. He slowly squatted down and picked up a large axe at his feet, staring at the gray-robed man.

When the grey-robed man saw that Ye Yang had been locked onto by his aura, he did not show any signs of panic. Instead, he picked up an axe and pointed it at Ye Yang.

The grey-robed man immediately revealed a contemptuous smile and threw out a punch a few meters away. Immediately, an invisible force transformed into an angry lion that pounced towards Ye Yang.

This was not a real lion, this was a skill that only expert who had reached the level of martial-general level possessed, true qi manifestation.

expert s at the Battlemaster level could condense their true qi into armor to defend themselves, but they were unable to release it outside their body to attack.

As a Battlemaster, Ye Lingtian naturally knew how powerful this strike was. Even if the warrior had been hit, he would have definitely died.

True energy instantly erupted from Ye Lingtian's entire body. Without holding back anymore, he slashed horizontally with his blade and forced the Great Elder and Zhao Yongsheng to retreat a few steps. Ye Lingtian took this opportunity to rush towards Ye Yang and shouted, "Yang'er, don't panic, your father has come to save you!"

The gray-robed man released his attack as he sneered at Ye Lingtian, "Today, no one can save your son. Don't waste your energy.

The Splitting Water Thorn in his hand drew out a sharp beam of light and slashed at Ye Lingtian.

When Ye Lingtian saw that the grey robed elder still had the strength to stop him even after releasing his attack, and that the middle-aged man still had some distance to cover before he could save Ye Yang, Ye Lingtian became anxious.

He turned a blind eye to the incoming water splitter and swung his long saber at the head of the grey-clothed old man, completely using his life in exchange.

The grey robed elder frowned. Even though he was a Martial General Level, he would still die if he was cut by Ye Lingtian. He was not willing to let both sides suffer.

With a flash, he retracted the Splitting Water Needle in his hand and readied Ye Lingtian's long blade.

With a dang sound, sparks flew everywhere and Ye Lingtian was forced five or six steps back. The blood in his chest churned as blood flowed out of the corners of his mouth.

Ignoring his injuries, he turned around and looked at Ye Yang. Seeing that his attack was about to hit Ye Yang, his eyes were filled with grief as he cried out, "Yang'er!"

Everyone present felt their hearts sink. In their hearts, martial artists were lofty existences. They never imagined that they would shamelessly act against a youth that wasn't even a martial artist.

The girls screamed in fear.

"Ye Yang, be careful!"

"Quickly dodge!"

Ye Qingxuan painfully closed her beautiful eyes as two streams of tears slowly rolled down her flawless face.

The calmest person in the numerous matches was Ye Yang. His eyes coldly stared at the lion formed from true energy in front of him. He circulated his true energy and focused on his arms.

Feeling the surging true energy in his body, Ye Yang slowly raised his axe and roared in front of him, "Open!"

Without holding back any more Zhen Qi, the huge axe in his hand hacked down towards the lion like a lightning bolt.

'Bang! 'a loud sound was heard.

The force was like a flood that had broken out of a dam as it gushed out in all directions, sending rocks and sand flying everywhere.

Some of the people in the distance also took a few steps back due to the shock from the blast before they managed to stabilize themselves.

After the shock wave disappeared and the dust gradually dispersed, everyone widened their mouths in shock as they looked in front of them with disbelief.

At the center of the hole, Ye Yang's clothes were torn, his hair was in disarray, and countless wounds could be seen all over his body. Fresh blood dyed his entire body red.

The giant axe in his hand had been completely crushed, leaving only a foot-long handle. Although he looked to be in a sorry state, Ye Yang still stood tall and straight. Waves of a gentle breeze blew past and brushed away his messy hair, revealing a pair of tiger-like eyes, completely unyielding.

"Wah!" He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Although Ye Yang had used his full strength just now to block the attack, the powerful rebound had already injured his internal organs.

"Ye Yang" Ye Qingxuan was the first to react and quickly rushed towards him. She supported Ye Yang and quickly took out a jade bottle from her chest. She poured out a medicinal pill and stuffed it into Ye Yang's mouth.

Ye Yang's entire body was aching, he leaned into Ye Qingxuan's embrace, smelled her body's fragrance, swallowed the pill into his stomach, looked at her beautiful face and laughed, "Cousin Qingxuan, this is a high quality healing medicine that can only be obtained once a year in our family, you've suffered a huge loss this time."

Ye Qingxuan wiped away the tears on her face, her charming face flushed, and said in a displeased tone, "At such a time, you're making such a joke? I'm going to be scared to death by you!"

Just as Ye Yang wanted to reply, his heart tightened. He hugged Ye Qingxuan and rolled to the side.

Ye Qingxuan felt her entire body go soft as she was carried by Ye Yang. A peculiar aura filled her heart and nose, it was filled with Ye Yang's masculinity.

However, the young girl's modesty caused her face to turn completely red. How was it proper to behave like this in such a public place? Just as he was about to reprimand Ye Yang, a ray of cold light followed the two of them as they slashed down.

Puff.

A Splitting Water Thorn pierced the place where the two of them were just standing. If it wasn't for Ye Yang who held her while dodging, the two of them would have already lost their lives.

It turned out that when the gray-robed elder saw that Ye Yang wasn't actually killed by one of his attacks, he had silently thrown out his Water Splitting Spike. He didn't expect Ye Yang's spiritual perception to still be dodged by him.

"Bastard!"

"Despicable!"

Following two furious roars, Ye Lingtian and the middle aged man threw themselves at the grey robed elder.

Previously, when the grey robed elder attacked Ye Yang with the cultivation of a war general, it was already considered disrespectful. Now, he didn't even kill Ye Yang with a single strike and even despicably launched a sneak attack. This despicable action filled the two with righteous indignation.

Seeing that he wasn't able to kill Ye Yang even after killing him twice, the gray-robed elder's expression became extremely ugly.

He was also a person with a head full of pride. Killing a rookie that wasn't even a martial artist was already a bit embarrassing for him.

However, in order to complete the order, he had an excuse. If others were to find out that he had failed twice or thrice, he would probably never be able to lift his head up again.

For a moment, he became angry out of embarrassment. Ignoring the attacks of the two people behind him, he gathered his true energy behind his back and pounced towards Ye Yang.

The two of them clearly did not expect the gray-robed elder to ignore their own attacks. Their weapons landed on the back of the grey-robed elder.

But as if it had hit a loach, it slid to the two sides and Ye Lingtian's blade was immediately deflected.

The middle-aged man's sword landed heavily on the elder's back. Although a portion of the force had been dispersed, a powerful force still invaded the elder's body.

When Ye Qingxuan saw the gray-robed elder rushing towards Ye Yang, he suddenly gritted his teeth and turned around. He pulled Ye Yang into his embrace and covered him with his own body.

Suddenly, a gentle voice reached his ears, "Thank you, Sister Qingxun. However, I, Ye Yang, do not have the habit of hiding behind someone else."

But when he felt a warm hand caress his head, following that, his body trembled, and Ye Qingxuan was pushed out by a strong force.

Ye Yang looked deeply at Ye Qingxuan, who was tens of meters away. His right hand tightly held onto a golden hairpin that came from her head.

Both of his eyes looked coldly at the gray-robed elder who was pouncing towards him. He concentrated all of his remaining true energy into his right hand and concentrated all of his attention on the elder's right eye.

Seeing Ye Yang coldly staring at him, the gray-robed elder became even more enraged. This was the first time that he had been looked down upon by a martial practitioner who wasn't a youth.

Both of his palms turned into claws as he released his true energy. One could faintly see a sharp, cold light flashing from his fingertips as they clawed down towards Ye Yang's shoulders.

If he was caught, Ye Yang would definitely be torn to shreds in an instant.

Seeing the grey robed elder's fierce attack, the middle-aged man and Ye Lingtian were anxious, "Yang'er, quickly dodge it.

This time, the grey-robed elder did not use his aura to lock onto Ye Yang. Actually, Ye Yang could have chosen to escape.

But for some reason, Ye Yang coldly stared at the grey-robed elder without the slightest intention of running away.

"Go and die, brat!"

"Go and die, old ghost!"

The two of them roared at the same time as the gray-robed elder clawed at Ye Yang's shoulders. He wanted to tear Ye Yang to shreds in order to vent the hatred in his heart.

As the grey-robed elder attacked, Ye Yang's right hand pierced towards the elder's right eye with a piercing sound.

At this moment, the broken sword in Ye Yang's sea of consciousness trembled lightly. An invisible light momentarily enveloped Ye Yang's entire body. Even Ye Yang himself did not notice it.

The gray-robed elder originally didn't care about Ye Yang's attack, but the moment Ye Yang stabbed out, he immediately felt a sharp aura lock onto his right eye. He actually had no way of dodging it.

He was shocked, and his Qi locked onto his surroundings, which was something that could only be done after he had reached Battlemaster. However, there was no way to think about it now. Both sides were on the verge of suffering.

Even if he could tear Ye Yang to shreds, Ye Yang would still go blind before he died. The regret in his heart was too late, so he could only brace himself and endure.

However, the next moment, his vision blurred and Ye Yang suddenly disappeared from his sight. The gray-robed elder was shocked and hastily turned around. However, he still could not see Ye Yang's figure.

A dignified voice sounded from the sky, "You dare come to my Eight Desolate City to behave so atrociously, are you tired of living?"
