King of Creation-Chapter 1644 - 1629: The Prelude to a Trap

"I’m not coming out, what can you do about it?"

Ye Zhen’s words were like a slap to Yuann Yinying’s face, making the Three Corpse Gods within him boil with rage, and he felt as if his face was swelling from the impact of Ye Zhen’s words.

Earlier, he had been bragging about washing away the shame Ye Zhen brought to the Holy Eagle Family, but in the blink of an eye, the old disgrace remained, and new shame had arrived.

What exactly was the new shame?

Most of the martial artists present hadn’t even noticed or understood.

But those powerful Realm King experts, Dao Realm experts, and distinguished noble family scions, including Yuann Yinying himself, knew well what this shame was!

Among the two major divine skills of the Yuann Family’s Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye was one that was renowned across all heavens and myriad worlds, which had granted Yuann family scions a special status.

Trained scions of the Yuann family were often hired at high prices by influential forces and experts — sometimes to explore secrets, sometimes for military reconnaissance, or even as scouts in wars, and their innate ability was crucial.

Sometimes, this innate ability of the Yuann family could determine the outcome of a war.

And for millions of years, the Yuann family had proclaimed and witnessed the mighty capabilities of this ability, making the Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye invincible.

Apart from a few exceptional Dao Realm experts and Creation Gods, there was nothing they couldn’t see through.

The Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye had become the golden brand of the Yuann family, raising the hiring price for their scions to an exorbitant level.

Usually, a Realm King scion of the Yuann family, some experts dared to use them to observe the actions of Creation Realm Gods.

But now, this golden brand of the Yuann family had faltered in the hands of a Fifth Stage of Divine Communication Realm martial artist like Ye Zhen.

Yuann Yinying, who was among the few Yuann scions who had spied on Creation Realm Gods, believed that with his half-step Dao Realm cultivation, few Dao Realm experts could escape his Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye.

Yet here, he had failed right before Ye Zhen.

Yuann Yinying’s face was now burning.

If Yuann Hongying had brought shame to the Holy Eagle Family earlier, then he was now further disgracing it.

The face of the Holy Eagle Family was being loudly slapped by Ye Zhen.

Moreover, he had offered his face for the slapping.

What could Yuann Yinying do?

Yuann Yinying roared, wanting to unleash his fury, wanting to kill, but his Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye, flickering with blue light and scanning the surrounding layers of space, found nothing.

"Get out!"

"Get out! Di Kuohai, if you’re a man, get out here!" Yuann Yinying lost his composure.

If he couldn’t regain face today, he’d become an even bigger joke than Yuann Hongying upon returning to the clan.

"I am a man, but I won’t come out! Do you think I’m foolish, to come out and let you kill me?"

"Aren’t you shameless? With your level of cultivation and mine, if you’ve got the skills, find me!" Ye Zhen sneered.

Yet behind Ye Zhen’s sneer, unknown to all, his forehead was drenched in cold sweat.

Just a bit more, just a bit, and Yuann Yinying would have discovered him.

Ye Zhen had fled into the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth using his Innate Five Elements Divine Escape, but Yuann Yinying’s Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye’s beam, to Ye Zhen, appeared like a star brighter than the sun, making the world vividly clear.

Whether visible to the naked eye or not, Yuann Yinying’s gaze saw everything in detail.

At that time, Ye Zhen felt that if Yuann Yinying’s Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye looked over, he would be immediately discovered.

But just as Yuann Yinying’s Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye spirit light was about to shine on Ye Zhen, a misty gray haze flowed from Ye Zhen’s body, swiftly enveloping him.

That gray haze immediately gave Ye Zhen a sense of security.

Yuann Yinying’s Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye’s blue light passed over Ye Zhen without discovering him at all.

"This guy’s ability and Big Ears’ innate ability both originate from the bloodlines of powerful beings from Ancient Times, quite formidable.

Not to mention usual methods, even the Innate Five Elements Divine Escape can’t hide from his innate ability.

However, the Origin Mirage Qi of the Ancient Mirage Dragon Pearl is precisely the nemesis of his Divine Eagle Heavenly Eye’s innate ability," the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou’s voice echoed in Ye Zhen’s Spirit Palace.

"Nemesis?"

"If Yuann Yinying’s father came, would he also be unable to see me with the Origin Mirage Qi of the Ancient Mirage Dragon present?" Ye Zhen asked.

"That old eagle’s cultivation... he’s no grandson, not easy to deceive. But with the Origin Mirage Qi of the Ancient Mirage Dragon Pearl covering you, as long as you don’t move, nor use any power, that old thing won’t discover you either."

Ye Zhen was stunned for a few breaths, then began cursing unbridledly, leading to the current scene.

By now, Yuann Yinying was furious, desperately wanting to find and tear Ye Zhen to shreds.

To eat his flesh, drink his blood to quench the hatred in his heart.

Originally, he planned to deal with Ye Zhen, boast a bit, and then step on Yuann Hongying, wouldn’t that be perfect?

But this perfect plan had been wrecked by Ye Zhen!

However, Yuann Yinying wasn’t an ordinary scion of the Holy Eagle Family; his experiences across all heavens and myriads of worlds were not for nothing.

Taking a deep breath, Yuann Yinying forced himself to calm down. "Di Kuohai, considering your prowess, today I offer you a fair chance to fight.

You come out, and I will fight you fairly, how about it?"

As long as Ye Zhen came out, Yuann Yinying believed that with his strength, he could crush Ye Zhen with ease.

The most crucial part now was to lure Ye Zhen out.

However, Ye Zhen was no fool either.

"A fair fight with me? Nice words, but with your high cultivation, a half-step Dao Realm, how can it be a fair fight with me?" Hearing Yuann Yinying’s proposal, Ye Zhen’s eyes rolled, and a plan formed instantly.

Upon hearing Ye Zhen’s willingness to potentially come out and fight, Yuann Yinying’s mind began strategizing; he needed to take this chance to lure Ye Zhen out.

"Di Kuohai, no secret talks between bright people. Though your cultivation is only the Fifth Stage of Divine Communication Realm, your combat power can match a mid to late-stage Realm King Realm expert.

Like this, three moves!"

"As long as you survive three moves, today’s grudges are wiped clean; regardless of winning or losing, I, Yuann Yinying, swear not to seek vengeance!" Yuann Yinying considered before speaking, his expression suddenly becoming expectant.

"Three moves... sounds good, seems fair, but..." Ye Zhen elongated his voice.

Initially, hearing the beginning of Ye Zhen’s response, Yuann Yinying thought he was agreeing and already showed signs of delight; he had to capitalize on this to deal with Di Kuohai and vent his anger.

But those two words, ’but’, left Yuann Yinying hanging in the air.

"But what?" Yuann Yinying quickly asked.

"Uh... but why should I take your three moves? Am I silly or have some problem, to willingly step up and let you beat me for three moves?" Ye Zhen suddenly said.

Yuann Yinying was dumbfounded, another metaphorical blood clot in his heart, how could this Di Kuohai be so difficult, asking why?

Didn’t he have even a bit of martial honor?

This was a challenge invitation!

However, Yuann Yinying kept that thought to himself, knowing saying it aloud would be pointless.

Pausing for a moment, Yuann Yinying said, "So, what do you propose? Under what terms will you fight?"

Upon hearing this, both Big Ears Nie Ting among the spectators and Mountain God Yi Xun in the sky had a simultaneous thought. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

It seemed like someone was about to get played here.
