Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 425: Who Do You Think You Are!
An hour later, the western snow mountain suddenly emitted steam and flames. The snow mountain melted, and the meltwater continuously joined the river below. In the blink of an eye, the water was roaring downstream. By this time, the river channel leading to the entrance of the Underground King City had already been dug out.
Boom...
In an instant, the flood surged into the underground like a fierce beast. Within just half a quarter of an hour, cries and wails echoed from below. And as Ye Feng anticipated, figures suddenly emerged from various directions.
This Underground King City was intricate, with many hidden passages and extensive areas, which was why Ye Feng hadn't chosen to blast it open with his power right away.
"Damn it, Ye Feng, you're so despicable to resort to a flood attack—utterly cruel!"
At this moment, the Underworld Sect's high ranks could no longer stay hidden. They flew out one after another from the various small hidden passages, and in a blink of an eye, more than a hundred people appeared on the high ground. These people were all high-ranking members of the Underworld Sect, and even the weakest among them was at the Grandmaster Level.
Naturally, those lower-level Underworld Sect disciples couldn't escape in time and were directly trapped and killed in the Underground Palace.
"Kill!" Ye Feng wouldn't waste words with them. He had already given them a chance; it was their fault for not seizing it, so there was nothing more to say than to slay them all.
In an instant, Xiao Chuanqi and many other experts acted, sweeping out like arrows and clashing with the Underworld Sect's experts.
Suddenly, two rainbows soared into the sky. They were two of the Underworld Sect's Supreme Elders, both at the peak of the Divine Ability Realm's Ninth Rank, and one of them had even half stepped into the Saint Realm.
Ye Feng's gaze sharpened as he charged towards them, and the Sword of the King materialized and slashed through the air.
"Earth Nether Guardian!" The two Underworld Sect Supreme Elders swiftly formed seals with their hands, causing the ground to rumble. A black, ferocious monster suddenly condensed into existence, appearing to be something from deep underground.
Boom...
The Sword of the King came slashing down, instantly splitting the large creature in two. However, at that moment, the half-step Saint Realm Underworld Sect powerhouse suddenly threw a punch, the two coordinating seamlessly.
Ye Feng sneered, as 500 acupoints in his body suddenly ignited, and he executed the Emperor's Divine Dragon Fist. The terrifying fist edge, like a tangible dragon, roared out and instantly swallowed the opponent.
Ah...
Accompanied by a scream, the half-step Saint Realm Underworld Sect powerhouse was blasted away, a hole appearing in his chest through which his internal organs could be seen.
Once again, Ye Feng waved his hand, and the Spear of the Ancestral Dragon appeared out of thin air. With a whoosh, it shot through the air, piercing and killing the half-step Saint Realm powerhouse on the spot.
The remaining Supreme Elder turned pale with fright and, almost without thinking, swiftly fled.
But Ye Feng had anticipated this move. His gaze abruptly focused, and the spirit nucleus in his Sea of Consciousness spun violently. His spiritual power spread like a tide in an instant.
At that moment, the Supreme Elder felt a brief stiffness in his movements, as if he had been bound by something. It was fleeting, but in a battle between masters, victory often hung by a thread.
The Sword of the King materialized above his head and then slashed down with unmatched might, cutting the Supreme Elder into two halves right there and then.
"Sigh, my spiritual power is still too weak after all, unable to fully restrain someone!" Ye Feng shook his head. After dealing with the two Supreme Elders, he floated in mid-air, remaining motionless; he left the rest to Xiao Chuanqi and the others to handle since these remaining people were no longer a threat and were good for practicing.
The battle didn't last long because not many had escaped from the Underground Palace. Additionally, there were simply too many strong allies on Ye Feng's side, some of which he had personally trained, including a supernatural ability user of the Hidden Guard. Moreover, there were eight other powerhouses provided by Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong and Boss Cao Yi.
Hence, adding them up, Ye Feng roughly estimated that he had over a hundred Divine Path Realm-level warriors on his side, and as many as twenty people at or above the Divine Communication Realm Level.
Of course, the one who drew the most attention was Sima Zhantian. After a full day of secluded cultivation, he seemed to have been reborn, his temperament had greatly changed, and his combat power had also significantly increased.

Ye Feng couldn't help but marvel; the Dao Technique given by the Old Beggar was indeed worthy of an Ancient Daoist Cultivator; it was simply too powerful. Of course, this wouldn't be possible without Sima Zhantian's own talent.
The battle ended quickly, with the entire upper echelon of the Underworld Sect obliterated. Those hiding in the Underground Palace, unable to emerge, were now forever entombed beneath the earth, never to awaken. Only a small number managed to escape in a panic, but Ye Feng wasn't concerned with them at all.
"Your Majesty, now that the core palace of the Underworld Sect is flooded, should we go in?" Xiao Chuanqi approached and asked.
Ye Feng stood on a hilltop and said coldly, "Of course we must enter. What is the purpose of our trip if not to acquire resources? The Underworld Sect has accumulated wealth for hundreds of years. There must be many treasures in their vault."
"Issue the order to form several elite teams skilled in underwater operations to move everything from the Underground Palace's vault to the surface. Also, take care, the martial arts techniques in the library must not be damaged!"
"Yes!" Xiao Chuanqi and Leng Wuming quickly sprang into action. Although Leng Wuming's combat power was not as strong as Xiao Chuanqi's or Sima Zhantian's, he was adept in this area and led multiple elite teams into the tunnels.
By midday, jewels and treasures were carried up one by one. Ye Feng paid no attention to these, his true interest lying in the three brocade boxes and two scrolls before him—these were the foundation of the Underworld Sect, their cultivation techniques and martial skills.
Ye Feng briefly perused them but lost interest quickly; the Underworld Sect's cultivation methods and martial techniques had little significance for him. Although they were of decent level and more than sufficient for regular people, they were now useless to him.
"Leng Wuming, you will be in charge of transporting these items back to the Imperial Martial Academy. The rest of you, follow me to the Flora Sect!" With a sweep of his Great Hand, Ye Feng turned his gaze southwest toward the location of the Flora Sect.
Xiao Chuanqi stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are we advancing on the Flora Sect now? Isn't that too hasty and risky?"
Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively, "No, attacking the Flora Sect directly now will be unexpected by the other sects."
Xiao Chuanqi said, "But this news won't stay hidden for long. Once the other major sects unite, there could be real risk."
Ye Feng scoffed coldly, "You're overestimating those sects. They're nothing but selfish forces. By the time they decide to act, the Flora Sect will already be in my hands!"
"Order, rest on the spot for half an hour, replenish with lunch, and then set off!" Ye Feng ordered directly. Xiao Chuanqi could not say more; the King's Order had been given.
At this time, Leng Wuming had already led a team of two thousand to transport the chests to the Imperial Martial Academy. Nevertheless, Ye Feng could never have imagined that someone would dare to rob the belongings of the Northern Border King on the way—though that's a story for later.
Half an hour later, under Ye Feng's command, the army set off. The Flora Sect was quite close to the Underworld Sect, just a one and a half-hour journey. By the time Ye Feng led his troops to the valley entrance, the Flora Sect had just begun to react.
Unlike the Underworld Sect, the Flora Sect was also nestled in a valley but surrounded by mountains on three sides. With flowers blooming everywhere, the scenery was delightful. Wooden buildings, not very tall but splendidly decorated, dotted the landscape. Here, there was nothing they couldn't grow if one could conceive it.
When Ye Feng's army arrived at the valley entrance, the Flora Sect had already started to prepare its defenses. To Ye Feng's surprise, the Flora Sect didn't act like the Underworld Sect, which had cowered.
Right now, numerous high-level members rushed out quickly, led by the Flora Sect Master and two Supreme Elders, commanding over a hundred Martial Kings to appear at the sect's gate at the valley entrance.
Clearly, this was the Flora Sect's full strength on display—a hundred Martial Kings and more than fifty figures at the Divine Path Realm, including a Supreme Elder of the Sacred Realm Level—which was slightly more powerful than the Underworld Sect.
"Northern King Ye Feng, you are truly audacious to lead an army to attack my Flora Sect. Have you considered the consequences?" the Flora Sect Master said coldly. She was a woman, though over fifty years old, she maintained her figure exceptionally well.
With a stern voice, Ye Feng replied, "According to the agreement between us, as long as your Flora Sect willingly hands over the agreed portion of cultivation techniques and martial skills, I will withdraw my forces immediately!"
The Sacred Realm Supreme Elder couldn't suppress his rage and retorted sharply, "Who are you to make demands? If we were to comply just because you say so? We aren't your personal playground, Ye Feng. I'm telling you, unless you cripple your martial arts and kneel, the Flora Sect will not forgive you!"
Ye Feng burst into laughter and then stated word by word, "The land under the heavens belongs to the sovereign; all within its borders are subjects to the throne. You, a mere Flora Sect, dare to be so insolent and resist? Any defiance will be met with death without mercy!"
"Rubbish! A petty Northern Border King. Even the two from the Utility Pavilion would have to be polite to me. You brat, not even fully grown, today my Flora Sect will see to your end!"
"To all sect members, follow my command—attack, destroy them!" The Flora Sect Master shouted coldly, triggering the opening of the sect's main gate, and Flora Sect disciples surged out like a tidal wave. Even from the mountaintops on both sides, countless disciples swarmed down.
"Form up!" Ye Feng ordered. Despite the enemy's numbers and having a higher cultivation level, he was undaunted. With the Emperor's Formation deployed, his army's combat power would significantly increase.
"Kill them, seize his head, and present it to the Utility Pavilion!" The two enraged Supreme Elders dashed towards Ye Feng with great speed.
"Perfect timing!" Ye Feng sneered. The Emperor's Armor materialized, and he brandished the Spear of the Ancestral Dragon as he charged forward like a dominant emperor.
