The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1591 - 1588: Ruthless

"What’s going on?"

The ghost tribe disciple of the Divine Dynasty was stunned on the spot.

But the disciples of Qingming Sacred Land, after clearly seeing Ye Xuan’s face, had complex expressions, with a hint of fear.

"The Heavenly Gold Divine Lotus was taken by him..."

Qingming Yurou bit her lower lip, feeling somewhat unwilling.

But she was helpless.

After all, having witnessed Ye Xuan’s power before, seeking trouble with him now would be courting death.

She was certain that in the entire Ghost Land, no ghost tribe could match Ye Xuan.

Even if she and Huanggui Yuchu joined forces, it wouldn’t be enough!

"Alas..."

The youth of the Fiery Ghost Clan sighed and said leisurely, "There’s no point in competing anymore."

Meanwhile, on the other side, the leader of the Divine Dynasty, Huanggui Yuchu, also set his gaze on Ye Xuan.

To be honest, he really wanted to just snatch it away.

Even though he already recognized this guy as the previous human clan member, the reaction of the Golden Dragon Carp made him hesitant to act rashly.

After thinking it over, Huanggui Yuchu cupped his hands towards Ye Xuan and said, "Friend, would you consider yielding the Heavenly Gold Divine Lotus? Our Divine Dynasty is willing to offer appropriate compensation."

Standing on the back of the Golden Dragon Carp, Ye Xuan glanced at Huanggui Yuchu and said slowly, "Sure, exchange it for the Six Paths of Silent Annihilation."

"What!?"

Ye Xuan’s words instantly made the faces of the ghost tribe disciples of the Divine Dynasty extremely ugly.

Especially Huanggui Yuchu.

The Six Paths of Silent Annihilation, that is the sacred artifact of the Ancestral Land of the Desolate Ghost Clan, symbolizing their supreme status.

This guy!

Huanggui Yuchu’s face turned grim, and he snorted coldly, "If you won’t exchange, then don’t exchange, why provoke with such words?"

Ye Xuan chuckled lightly and said, "If you can’t afford the exchange, then don’t shout, as for provoking an enemy?"

"Don’t say you’re not worthy, even your entire Desolate Ghost Clan isn’t worthy."

"How arrogant..."

Ye Xuan’s words made the ghost tribe disciples of the Divine Dynasty clench their fists in anger, yearning to give him a good beating.

"I hope you can say such arrogant words after leaving the Ghost Land."

Huanggui Yuchu snorted coldly, "One more thing, the Heavenly Gold Divine Lotus was personally reserved by the Haoran Emperor."

Ye Xuan looked at Huanggui Yuchu and said calmly, "So what?"

Huanggui Yuchu was suddenly at a loss, did this guy not understand the implications of his words?

The Haoran Emperor, currently the second on the Ghost List.

Taking the Heavenly Gold Divine Lotus means provoking this enemy!

But this guy, he seems completely unafraid!

"Fine, we’ll see!"

Seeing that this guy was impermeable, Huanggui Yuchu was helpless.

Ye Xuan retracted his gaze, looked into the distance, and slightly curled his lips, saying, "But you’ll need to survive first to say those words."

"What do you mean?"

Huanggui Yuchu’s face darkened, thinking Ye Xuan was about to strike.

However, he discovered that Ye Xuan had no intention of attacking, still looking into the distance.

Ye Xuan simply sat down, took the Snow Nourishing Sword Gourd from his waist, and took a sip.

Boom!

The next moment.

A shadow that covered the sky shrouded the ghost tribe disciples of the Divine Dynasty and Qingming Sacred Land on both banks.

All the ghost tribes looked up at the sky, terrified.

In the sky, there was an enormous mysterious creature.

This mysterious creature was completely pitch-black, emanating a deathly aura, resembling a black phoenix, but with claws as sharp as dragon claws!

Its pair of dark eyes coldly gazed down at the ghost tribe disciples of the Divine Dynasty and Qingming Sacred Land.

At this moment, they felt as if their blood ceased flowing, unable to channel mana, let alone use innate divine abilities.

"Why are you here?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix looked at Ye Xuan on the back of the Golden Dragon Carp and said puzzledly.

Who is it speaking to?

At this moment, the ghost tribe disciples of the Divine Dynasty and Qingming Sacred Land were all horrified.

"Why wouldn’t I be here?"

Ye Xuan replied lazily without raising his head.

"This..."

Hearing Ye Xuan’s response, ghost tribe disciples of the two factions were frightened.

This terrifying creature actually knows Ye Xuan!?

What exactly is going on!?

Who exactly is this human boy?

It’s one thing for the Dragon Carp guarding the Divine River to voluntarily act as a mount, but now this terrifying presence, capable of killing them at any moment, knows Ye Xuan too!

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix was silent for a moment, then said, "I am looking for someone."

Ye Xuan chuckled and said, "It’s certainly not me."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix paused again, then said, "Let’s say I deceived you for now, but I need to regain my strength here and can’t go with you."

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "I understand, after all, that’s the real business."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix said earnestly, "But my previous words still stand. Once I recover my peak combat power, I will fulfill my promise."

Ye Xuan curbed his smile and said indifferently, "What if by then I ask you to kill your own kind?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix replied without hesitation, "Alright."

"But let me remind you, I have never valued any so-called companions, what you call companions, they are likely just participants in that war, so even if you ask me to kill them, I will strike without hesitation."

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "That’s enough."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix slightly nodded and said, "I will take these people’s lives."

With these words, the disciples of the two factions of the ghost tribes turned pale with despair.

"Leave her."

Ye Xuan pointed to Qingming Yurou.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix instinctively glanced at Qingming Yurou, but it knew Ye Xuan, and would never let someone live over mere beauty, so there must be some other plan.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix did not ask more, nodding gently in agreement.

"Sister Yurou, going ahead first."

The youth of the Fiery Ghost Clan tossed the extremely long Divine Sword to Qingming Yurou, smiling freely, and his gaze at Qingming Yurou was exceedingly gentle.

He was powerless to resist the impending strike of this terrifying creature.

A bit regretful.

"Actually...I’ve always liked you."

As soon as he spoke, he was instantly obliterated.

"No!"

Qingming Yurou witnessed the youth of the Fiery Ghost Clan turn to ashes.

Simultaneously, the disciples of the Divine Dynasty, including Huanggui Yuchu, also turned to ash.

"No——"

Huanggui Yuchu was unwilling, a tragic scream echoed, and then he disappeared.

Everything was obliterated.

Yet their blood flew far into the distance.

Disappearing instantaneously.

And their souls were consumed by the Nine Netherworld Phoenix as food.

From beginning to end, Ye Xuan coldly observed without any emotional fluctuation.

Like in the aeons, looking down from above, observing beings as mere chess pieces, born and annihilated, without perturbation.

Big fish eat little fish, little fish eat shrimp.

The law of the jungle.

This is the cruel rule of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
