The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 1332 - 1323: Desperate Counterattack

The entirety of the mansion’s front yard was deathly silent.

A gentle breeze passed by, and the scorching sun in the sky was suddenly obscured by a layer of clouds.

With blood flowing from his left shoulder and staining the corner of his mouth, Ye Chenfeng turned his body, his gaze shifting to Zhang Wenxuan, Wang Yongxing, and Lin Zhonghe. Earlier, when he used Green Flame to kill Zheng Yuanzhi, first, he obscured it with his own body; second, Zheng Yuanzhi’s death was so quick that the Heaven and Earth Flame Green Flame wasn’t discovered by anyone else.

However, Ye Chenfeng was clear that the Green Flame was currently only capable of dealing with experts at the Peak of the Second Heavenly Layer Ocean Gathering Realm. Whether he could truly leave this place would depend on the three Blue Fire Seeds in his dantian.

How could this happen? How could this possibly happen? Ye Chenfeng actually managed to kill Zheng Yuanzhi in an instant?

The eyes of Lin Zhonghe, Zhang Wenxuan, and Wang Yongxing all simultaneously widened slightly. In a mere exchange, Zheng Yuanzhi was reduced to a pile of ashes in Ye Chenfeng’s hands? It must be noted that Ye Chenfeng’s strength was two full cultivation tiers lower than Zheng Yuanzhi’s. Even the most exceptional of geniuses in top-tier strength might not possess such combat talent.

"Thud!"

Zheng Yuanzhi’s son, Zheng Wu, had originally been imagining the miserable fate soon awaiting Ye Chenfeng, planning to step on Ye Chenfeng’s head viciously. But as it turned out, his father, Zheng Yuanzhi, was directly reduced to ashes in Ye Chenfeng’s hands instead? This plunged Zheng Wu into utter terror; his body seemed drained of all strength in an instant, his footsteps faltering as he collapsed heavily to the ground.

Not far away, Jiang Yunting stared at Ye Chenfeng’s cold and unfeeling complexion and at the heap of ashes that was once Zheng Yuanzhi on the ground. Her own body quivered uncontrollably. She could hardly believe that Ye Chenfeng even had the ability to kill a Peak expert from the Second Heavenly Layer Ocean Gathering Realm.

Meanwhile, the people standing at the front yard’s gates, members of the three major families, were all already stupefied. Especially the three family heads, Liu Weitian, Hu Weiyuan, and Qin Shifang; their strengths were evenly matched to Zheng Yuanzhi’s. Now that Ye Chenfeng was able to kill Zheng Yuanzhi in a single strike, didn’t this imply Ye Chenfeng could just as easily dispatch them as well? Cold sweat soaked through their clothing.

As for Liu Jiang and Hu Feilong, their fists clenched slightly, their eyes filled with boundless fear, bodies trembling uncontrollably. At that moment, they finally understood how vast the gap between themselves and Ye Chenfeng truly was.

But Liu Jiang promptly sneered coldly and said, "Father, Zheng Yuanzhi is nothing but a minor figure. Do you honestly believe Ye Chenfeng could defeat three Divine Thought Realm experts? Especially when two of them are at the Peak of the Fifth Layer of the Divine Thought Realm! Zheng Yuanzhi’s death is a blessing for us—once the Zheng family’s influence in Bei Yun City diminishes, we’ll be able to consolidate even more power."

Upon hearing Liu Jiang’s analysis, not only did Liu Weitian’s expression brighten, but even Hu Weiyuan and Qin Shifang were visibly energized too. Today might just prove to be a scenario of "when the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman reaps the reward" for the three major families.

"You sly brat, you’ve hidden your strength well. Did you really think that killing Zheng Yuanzhi would give you a glimmer of hope for leaving here? You’ve truly infuriated us." Lin Zhonghe’s aura as a Peak expert of the Fifth Layer Divine Thought Realm surged suddenly. The death of Zheng Yuanzhi, his own biological son, was hardly something he could let go of.

"Wenxuan, let’s act together to prevent any more unexpected occurrences. The fact that this brat dared to kill someone in our presence is an insult to us," said Wang Yongxing, the Fifth Elder of Spiritual Medicine Valley, his eyes flashing with malice.

Zhang Wenxuan’s figure flickered, appearing in front of Yu Haifeng. With a resounding "bang!", a strike from his palm landed squarely on Yu Haifeng’s chest, sending him sprawling to the ground, blood seeping from his lips. Yu Haifeng was temporarily incapacitated.

"Troublesome individuals should know their place and lie down obediently," Zhang Wenxuan said with a faint smile toward Wang Yongxing.

Afterward, Zhang Wenxuan turned his gaze to Ye Chenfeng and shouted, "Kid, we’ve underestimated you far too much. But your luck ends here. With three Divine Thought Realm experts targeting you together, you, a mere garbage at the Fifth Layer Spirit Communication Realm, should feel honored even in death."

"My fate is not for you to decide. Today, I, Ye Chenfeng, will leave this place. Who can stop me?" Ye Chenfeng’s spiritual energy surged within his body, his hair floating with the surrounding currents. His gaze grew even colder.

Collapsed on the ground, the Zheng family’s young master, Zheng Wu, regained some strength upon seeing his grandfather Lin Zhonghe and the others preparing to attack Ye Chenfeng. Staggering back by several paces in frenzied fear, his expression twisted completely as he snarled, "Do you think you can survive against three Divine Thought Realm experts? I’ll slice your flesh piece by piece and savor it, drinking your blood!"

Lin Zhonghe glanced at the deranged Zheng Wu. Given that Zheng Wu was his grandson, he planned to leave Ye Chenfeng to him. Turning to Wang Yongxing and Zhang Wenxuan, he said, "Let’s leave the brat breathing for now. Killing him outright would be far too merciful."

Wang Yongxing and Zhang Wenxuan nodded slightly in agreement, focusing their attention fully on Ye Chenfeng once more. Zhang Wenxuan’s hand gripped a green longsword tightly. Observing Ye Chenfeng’s unruffled demeanor in the face of his dire situation only deepened his fury. "Kid, I truly admire your courage. To us, you’re not even worth as much as a pest. I can’t fathom where your confidence comes from."

Ye Chenfeng’s awareness wrapped around the three Blue Fire Seeds in his dantian. As soon as Lin Zhonghe and the others attacked, he would extract the fire seeds immediately. Smirking coldly, he said, "You compare me to a pest, but what about you? I doubt that, at your Spirit Communication Realm Fifth Layer peak, you could even face an Ocean Gathering Realm First Heavenly Layer expert without running for your life. By your logic, you wouldn’t even amount to a fart."

Zhang Wenxuan’s face darkened entirely. Sneering sinisterly, he said, "Kid, I hope your sharp tongue remains intact in just a moment."

Standing not far behind Zhang Wenxuan and the others, Jiang Yunting, observing the scene with Ye Chenfeng surrounded, finally said, "Ye Chenfeng, is apologizing really so difficult? If you apologize now, I can ensure everyone here will treat this incident as if it never happened."

"Apologize? To you trash? Are you even worthy?" Ye Chenfeng replied, his tone filled with disappointment as he glanced at Jiang Yunting. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Jiang Yunting’s expression turned furious upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, realizing he had grouped her among the "trash." She snapped angrily, "Ye Chenfeng, I no longer care about your life or death."

As soon as Jiang Yunting’s words fell, Zhang Wenxuan, Wang Yongxing, and Lin Zhonghe charged simultaneously at Ye Chenfeng. Ye Chenfeng had to ensure that all three Blue Fire Seeds hit their targets; wasting even one would mean almost certain death if he wished to leave alive today.

As Zhang Wenxuan and the others rushed at Ye Chenfeng, he moved toward them instead. To the onlookers, it seemed as though Ye Chenfeng had chosen to dive headlong into his own destruction.

"You audacious brat, what do you think you are? You’re nothing but garbage," Zhang Wenxuan roared furiously upon seeing Ye Chenfeng charging at them.

As Zhang Wenxuan shouted, he and Wang Yongxing, along with Lin Zhonghe, all struck their palms toward Ye Chenfeng. None of them used their full strength, taking care to ensure that Ye Chenfeng would remain alive.

Ye Chenfeng charged in like a warrior prepared to die, his chest meeting their palms directly. At the same time, three blue flames appeared in his right hand. These flames emitted no sensation of heat.

Not sensing any threat from the three blue flames, Zhang Wenxuan sneered disdainfully and said, "Fool, it seems you truly chose to commit suicide."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three palms struck Ye Chenfeng’s chest without fail, caving in his chest bones completely. Ye Chenfeng’s body flew backward as he spat blood wildly.

At the moment Ye Chenfeng was struck, he flicked the three blue flames toward Zhang Wenxuan, Wang Yongxing, and Lin Zhonghe. The trio waved their hands dismissively, instantly vanishing the flames without a trace.

"I’d initially suspected that those three blue flames had some sort of power. Turns out this brat was merely bluffing," Lin Zhonghe sneered coldly.

But in that instant, Zhang Wenxuan, Wang Yongxing, and Lin Zhonghe’s expressions abruptly shifted. They felt a sudden, massive shock to their minds. The nerves within their brains flared with agony, their Sea of Consciousness turned chaotic, pain twisting their faces.

The Sea of Consciousness—a domain formed only by those who had reached the Divine Thought Realm.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The bodies of Zhang Wenxuan and the other two collapsed onto the ground. The blue flames hadn’t disappeared; rather, they had imperceptibly entered their bodies.

Although these Blue Fire Seeds could instantly kill only experts at the First Heavenly Layer of the Divine Thought Realm, they were more than enough to deal considerable harm to those exceeding that realm.
