Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 421 What is the Second Young Master Ye’s Intentions (3)_1
Shangguan You’s gaze swept over Second Young Master Ye once again. So he has a taste for younger women, yet he’s so stiff and cold? she mused.
"Li Chengping, Li Cheng’an, aren’t you pushing things too far?" Mudan roared, her pretty face clouding over like an impending storm, a sinister air swirling around her.
"Hahaha, I speak the truth. How is that bullying Mudan?"
"You’re seeking death!" Mudan shouted angrily, her red skirt swirling as she attacked the two men. The three of them were instantly entangled. As the trio began to fight, the onlookers quickly retreated several steps, afraid of being caught in the winds from their palm strikes.
Second Young Master Ye’s eyes narrowed as he watched the three figures in mid-air. With a wave of his sword, he lashed out at those who had them surrounded.
"Your Excellency possesses great power," Zhuge Feng said, his eyes turning cold. The two Elders beside him, De and Wu, had already launched their attack on Second Young Master Ye.
"Move! Bring that person back to me—alive!" Zhuge Feng commanded with a wave of his hand. At his order, those surrounding Shangguan You sprang into action.
Zhuge Feng, dressed in a black robe, seemed to move with the wind. A powerful aura emanated from him as he watched coldly, not joining the fray.
As they sprang into action, the entire area at the foot of the mountain instantly descended into chaos.
Shangguan You furrowed her brows, looking at the people around her. She sensed something was amiss. That iceberg, Second Young Master Ye, actually initiated a fight? Had she overlooked something?
A black figure, like a phantom, leaped out from the foot of the mountain. A peal of eerie laughter followed, so jarring that it left everyone feeling dizzy, their chests tightening as blood rushed upwards.
"Who goes there?!" Zhuge Feng bellowed. The black figure darted towards the source of the laughter. BOOM! BOOM! A series of tremendous explosions thundered, and the entire foot of the mountain shook violently. The once towering, cloud-piercing peak was instantly sheared in half. RUMBLE! CRASH! Giant boulders tumbled down the slopes. A crowd had gathered at the foot, watching the sudden catastrophe unfold, and the scene became even more chaotic.
"Who are you, Your Excellency? What is your purpose in coming to Hidden World Village?" Zhuge Feng, a dark silhouette, blocked the black-clad person. Simultaneously, Bai Muxue and Fang Jianfei also flew into mid-air, obstructing the figure’s path.
Numerous Cultivators also soared into the sky. However, those with weaker Spiritual Energy and the Superpower Users had to flee for their lives. They lacked the profound abilities needed to fly and evade the falling rocks, so they could only rely on their legs.
This sudden turn of events had occurred in an instant, yet the entire scene had already spiraled out of control.
They had all gathered in search of the Spirit Gathering Stone, which was why nearly half the population of Hidden World Village had converged here.
A glint of deep intensity flashed in Shangguan You’s eyes. She released a powerful surge of Spiritual Energy from within, pushing back those around her, then soared into mid-air to watch the spectacle unfold from above.
Meanwhile, Mudan and the two old men from the Li Family were also fighting with all their might. Their back-and-forth exchange resulted in a stalemate. In contrast, Elders De and Wu found Second Young Master Ye much harder to deal with. A sweep of Second Young Master Ye’s Sword Qi had shaved off a large clump of Elder De’s beard, leaving the two old men fuming and glaring, their attacks growing even more vicious.
Amidst the ceaseless rain of falling stones from mid-air, the area was filled with cries of agony from those who couldn’t dodge in time and were crushed beneath the rocks.
"Hahaha, so Hidden World Village is nothing more than this!" The black-clad man revealed a dull, expressionless face. Looking at such a face, anyone could guess he was disguised. But what was his purpose in suddenly appearing here? Was it merely to destroy half the mountain, or did he have some other objective?
"Hmph! Your Excellency is quite arrogant to dare come here." Zhuge Feng’s voice carried a chilling murderous intent. His dark figure flashed, and he clashed with the man in black. CLANG! BAM! The sounds of their battle were incessant, and wherever they passed, fierce flames erupted, burning intensely.
The fire soared into the sky, bathing the entire mountainside in a crimson glow.
"To trespass on Bai Family territory, destroy the Lie Detection Stone, and even shear off half the natural barrier—what is your purpose, Your Excellency?" Bai Muxue’s eyes flashed. With a whip of her white robe and a cold pronouncement, she unleashed a palm strike, joining Zhuge Feng in the battle.
"Hahaha! My purpose? It is, naturally, to make Hidden World Village vanish from this world, never to appear again!" the man in black cackled, his attacks growing increasingly merciless.
"Such arrogance on our territory! Your Excellency truly has some nerve!" Li Chengping roared, trying to force Mudan back. But Mudan’s vicious techniques kept both him and Li Cheng’an tightly entangled, preventing them from disengaging, let alone going to Zhuge Feng’s aid.
"You’re in league with that black-clad man? Despicable!" Elder De roared.
"Hmph." Second Young Master Ye snorted coldly, keeping the two elders tightly engaged and preventing them from going to help. A massive wave of Spiritual Energy, thick with overwhelming Sword Qi, swept across the battlefield.
BOOM! BOOM! Two more deafening explosions rocked the towering, cloud-piercing mountain, as Sword Qi blasted a large hole straight through it. Simultaneously, several figures swiftly darted out from the newly formed cavern.
"Hahaha!" A few more peals of sky-shaking laughter echoed. The black-clad man fighting Zhuge Feng, along with Second Young Master Ye and Mudan, simultaneously disengaged from their opponents and regrouped beside the figures emerging from the cavern.
Zhuge Feng and everyone else present had their expressions change dramatically, their eyes wide with disbelief as they watched the figures emerge from the cavern entrance.
"Zhuge Feng! Qingsheng, Family Head of the Fang Family! Li Chengqing, Family Head of the Li Family! Bai Tianche, Family Head of the Bai Family! Hahaha, I am finally out!" At the cavern’s entrance, a middle-aged man’s face appeared—pale and bloodless from long years without sunlight. His cold, serpent-like eyes, glinting with a venomous light, swept menacingly over the crowd.
"Ye Zhiqiu, do you think you can escape today? Don’t forget, you are not only a criminal of the Ye Family but also the public enemy of the entire Hidden World Village! If you escape from here today, the Ye Family will be scorned by all! It’s not just us—do you think even the Ye Family will spare you? Don’t you forget what you have done!"
