Chapter 319: Chapter 285 Confrontation
Whoosh!
The words of Heavenly Saint Wutuo stirred up a series of hushed and chaotic murmurs in the square.
It was clear to everyone that Heavenly Saint Wutuo was going to stand up for the Feng Brothers.
"Huff..."
The words of Heavenly Saint Wutuo also allowed Feng Zimo and Feng Zixu to breathe a sigh of relief.
The brothers were somewhat uncertain about Heavenly Saint Wutuo's temperament. They owed their possession of Wutuo's Heavenly Saint Decrees to a cousin who practiced at the Heavenly Sacred Palace.
Although that cousin barely tended to their affairs, he was a disciple of the first temple of the Heavenly Sacred Palace and a peerless talent with a great chance of advancing to the Heavenly Saint Realm. His future achievements might even surpass Heavenly Saint Wutuo's.
That was why Heavenly Saint Wutuo treated the Feng Brothers so specially, leaving them with three Heavenly Saint Decrees, declaring he would save them three times.
And the reason the Feng Brothers knew Bai Wuchen from the top ten demonic sects of the Western Wilderness, and were willing to get involved in the affairs of the Western Wilderness, was because of their cousin "Feng Zili," who was good friends with "Yin Qianjue," the strongest practitioner from the top ten demonic sects in the first temple of the Heavenly Sacred Palace.
No one knew that the conflict between the Southern Territory and the Western Wilderness had escalated to the current point partly because of the two talented disciples of the first temple of the Heavenly Sacred Palace, "Feng Zili" and "Yin Qianjue"!
The stance taken by Heavenly Saint Wutuo relieved the Feng Brothers, as well as Bai Wuchen and the disciples of the Western Wilderness demonic sects, who had been on edge.
With a Heavenly Saint backing them, they no longer needed to fear facing Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.
Ye Chen hadn't joined the Heavenly Sacred Palace yet and therefore did not know about the matters concerning "Feng Zili" and "Yin Qianjue."
At this moment, facing Heavenly Saint Wutuo's words and the other three Heavenly Saints who stood by his side, smiling and watching the spectacle with folded arms, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao showed no signs of cowardice.
Side by side, hand in hand, they faced the four Heavenly Saints together.
Ye Chen even responded, "Heavy-handed against them? It was they who interfered in the struggle between my Southern Territory and the Western Wilderness and joined Bai Wuchen in an assassination attempt against me. How did it turn into us being heavy-handed?"
"Heavenly Saint, is this how unreasonable you can be?"
Buzz!
Ye Chen's words caused a moment of astonishment among the surrounding warriors engaged in discussion.
They didn't expect that even in the face of four Heavenly Saints, Ye Chen wouldn't beg for mercy but would still dare to argue his case.
But Heavenly Saints were not known for reasoning with juniors!
Indeed, as everyone had anticipated, the gleam in Heavenly Saint Wutuo's eyes intensified upon hearing Ye Chen's words: "What an articulate young man. Don't you know how to show respect in the presence of a Heavenly Saint?"
"Do you really think that with the power of the Rotating Pill, you can act so insolently?"
Whoosh!
Without taking physical action, the immense presence of Heavenly Saint Wutuo surged directly towards Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.
He aimed to directly suppress them with his Heavenly Saint pressure.
The moment Wutuo's Heavenly Saint pressure was unleashed, the Heavenly Saint Law Bead on Ye Chen's body glimmered, and a torrent of Heavenly Saint power was released, enveloping him and Jiang Yao with its protection.
"Planning to make a move?"
"So this is how unreasonable a Heavenly Saint can be!"
Whoosh!
Simultaneously with the release of the Heavenly Saint Law Bead, Ye Chen's wrist shook, sending the Sacred Artifact "Holy Light Heavenly Spirit Mirror", which he had obtained from Heavenly Saint Moya, flying out.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the instant the "Holy Light Heavenly Spirit Mirror" blasted out, five Combat Puppets infused with Heavenly Saint power appeared alongside Ye Chen!
During this time, Ye Chen had been nurturing the "Holy Light Heavenly Spirit Mirror" within the "Eight Extremes Map," fully restoring its power.
The Holy Light Heavenly Spirit Mirror, a Sacred Artifact, could unleash its strongest power by firing the most powerful combat puppets infused with Heavenly Saint power.
Though these Heavenly Saint power combat puppets could still not overcome a presence from the Heavenly Saint Realm, with these puppets, Ye Chen could hold off Heavenly Saint Wutuo for a moment.
As Ye Chen unleashed Heavenly Saint power, Jiang Yao's beautiful eyes were fixed on the other three Heavenly Saints beside Wutuo.
"Do you also intend to join him in suppressing Ye Chen and me?"
"Today, we may not be able to best you, but if you really wish to oppress us because you are in the Heavenly Saint Realm, then one day, I will personally come to settle the score with you!"
Boom!
As Jiang Yao spoke, her waist-length hair began to fiercely grow longer!
Ye Chen unleashed Heavenly Saint power and combat puppets to fend off Heavenly Saint Wutuo, while Jiang Yao stood ground against the other three great Heavenly Saints.
Watching the two young champions undaunted by the four great Heavenly Saints, everyone present tightened their breath.
If it was any of them facing four Heavenly Saints, they would likely be scared stiff by now!
"Ah, such grandeur from an early-stage Heavenly Saint realm being! If there truly is a move against this sister, I, 'Liu Qingmei,' would like to assist her."
Just as the stand-off intensified, another figure soared into the air from one side of the square and flew toward Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.
This figure was none other than the oval-faced girl with a refined temperament in light purple garments, who had been paying attention to Jiang Yao.
This girl, having noticed some inexplicable connection with Jiang Yao, of course wouldn't let her and Ye Chen face the crisis alone.
"Liu Qingmei?"
Hearing the self-introduction of this young girl, everyone thought of a name on the Sword Fighting Spirit Ranking.
Was she the girl from the Eastern Polar Star Archipelago, ranked among the top six hot contenders for the championship—Liu Qingmei?
Everyone's gaze turned towards this young girl, even Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, as well as the four Heavenly Saints, were drawn to her.
Only in the late stage of Spiritual Sea cultivation?
There was actually another girl who dared to defy a Heavenly Saint!
Many spectators were surprised once again after seeing the light purple-clad Ye Qingmei's aura.
Ye Chen and Jiang Yao exchanged glances, also somewhat taken aback.
They didn't expect that this girl, whom they didn't know at all, would speak out to help them.
And, listening to this girl's tone, it sounded as if she didn't care about the four Great Heavenly Saints of the early Heavenly Saint Realm at all.
It wasn't until Liu Qingmei flew next to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, and nodded with a smile at Jiang Yao, that the two of them still hadn't figured out the reason why this girl was helping them.
"This matter arose because of us, if you want to deal with Ye Chen, then face us first!"
"Yes, we may not be able to defeat the Heavenly Saints, but we will definitely not beg for mercy!"
Following Liu Qingmei's stand, the Shi Family's three brothers from the Southern Territory, as if stimulated, also stood up and raised their voices.
"And us!"
"What's so great about Heavenly Saints? If they really intend to use their power to bully others, one day, our Heavenly Saint Long Xuan from the Southern Territory will definitely come to demand an explanation from you all!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The warriors from the Southern Territory all stood up.
Seeing one figure after another standing up, Heavenly Saint Wutuo and the other three Great Heavenly Saints narrowed their eyes.
Although they didn't take these people seriously, the power of the Heavenly Saint Puppet and the Heavenly Saint Law Bead released by Ye Chen had to be taken seriously, suggesting that behind Ye Chen was definitely a Heavenly Saint.
Enjoy new adventures from ???
There was also Jiang Yao, the stunningly beautiful girl next to Ye Chen.
When Jiang Yao spoke those words to the three Great Heavenly Saints, they were all alarmed, sensing from the girl's eyes that if they really helped Wutuo, they would definitely incur troubles they couldn't handle!
A girl in her late Spiritual Sea stage, with the bone age of seventeen, already possessed the invincible strength of the Rotating Pill, which spoke volumes to the three Great Heavenly Saints.
And this girl named Liu Qingmei, who dared to speak out while Ye Chen and Jiang Yao were under pressure by the four Great Heavenly Saints, indicated that she too must have a strong backing.
Originally, Heavenly Saint Wutuo's group, who clearly had the upper hand in momentum, now felt hesitant to make any rash moves under these circumstances.
Even after hesitating for a few breaths, the three Great Heavenly Saints from Mantuoshan seemed to be making excuses when they directly said to Jiang Yao and Ye Chen, "We just came to meet with Brother Wutuo, and had no intention of meddling in your affairs. Whether or not to deal with these youngsters is up to you, Brother Wutuo. We won't get involved."
A show of weakness!
The words of the three Great Heavenly Saints took the onlooking crowd by surprise.
They clearly perceived the reticence and desire to avoid conflict in the hearts of these three Great Heavenly Saints!
Jiang Yao, with just a single statement, had forced the three Great Heavenly Saints to not dare take a stand!
The words of the three Great Heavenly Saints caused Heavenly Saint Wutuo's expression to change dramatically; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
Just when Heavenly Saint Wutuo was in a difficult position, another voice from the sky made him truly panic.
This voice was immensely enchanting, yet carried the temperament of a true superior: "I've only left for a short while, and someone dares to make a move against our people from Heavenly Sacred Palace!"
"Although Heavenly Sacred Palace does not interfere with conflicts in the Barbarian Wilderness, however, if you really want to go against Ye Chen and my sister Jiang Yao, you should ask me, the Envoy, first!"
The moment that enchanting voice sounded, a beautiful girl with long legs and a curvaceous figure appeared from the vast mountain ranges in the far sky and, within a few flashes, was instantly above the plaza.
This person was none other than the Envoy of Heavenly Sacred Palace, Mu Qingqing.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as Mu Qingqing appeared, not less than ten waves of movement emerged simultaneously in the void, and finally, fifteen Heavenly Saint figures all arrived explosively following Mu Qingqing.
"Qingqing!"
"It's really you!"
"Qingqing, how is Elder Mu? Will he be attending the two grand events this time?"
When these fifteen Heavenly Saints arrived, they all greeted Mu Qingqing with bright smiles!
Among these fifteen Heavenly Saints, there were even two who were in the mid-stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm!
Yet Mu Qingqing didn't pay attention to these Heavenly Saints and went straight to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.
"Ye Chen."
"Sister Jiang Yao."
"Are you both alright?"
Mu Qingqing looked at Ye Chen and Jiang Yao with concern, and upon seeing them shake their heads, she then curiously glanced at Liu Qingmei, who was standing by their side.
Then, Mu Qingqing's beautiful eyes directly faced Heavenly Saint Wutuo.
