He neither summoned any magical weapons, nor cast any powerful spells, nor even moved his feet.
He just raised his finger and drew a sword light, looking a little careless, as if he didn't pay attention to the fatal blow at all.
It wasn't until General Black Viper turned into fragments all over the sky, and blood splashed on their faces, bringing a warm touch, that they realized belatedly that this battle, which seemed to be about to enter a fierce battle, had come to an abrupt end!
It was like a war song that was supposed to be passionate and surging, but just when it was about to reach its climax, it was suddenly cut off, leaving only a dead silence.
The remaining energy in the air was still fluctuating slightly, but it was no longer as violent as before, leaving only a faint smell of blood.
The huge contrast between before and after caused everyone present to fall into a brief mental blank.
The only sounds left in his ears were the "tick" sound of blood dripping and the "rumbling" sound of the mountains collapsing in the distance. Even his own breathing became extremely clear.
Until General Black Viper's fishy blood and corpse fragments fell on his body, bringing a sticky touch and pungent smell.
The smell was mixed with the unique fishy smell of blood and snake scales, which was so disgusting that everyone suddenly came back to their senses.
Immediately afterwards, one after another horrified screams resounded throughout the world, with cries and trembling in their voices!
"Ah! General Black Viper... He's dead?!"
A young soldier slumped on the ground, his legs were weak and his voice was trembling.
He put his hands on the ground, his palms covered with black blood, his face was full of disbelief, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.
"Am I right? How could he die so easily? Even... even a little sloppy?!"
A middle-aged general rubbed his eyes, and the blood on his face was stained on his fingers.
He looked at the black blood on his fingertips, his eyes filled with confusion, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
The powerful man who was so powerful just now died so easily!
"Who is he? Why is General Black Viper so vulnerable in his hands?!"
The crowd completely exploded, with countless people talking in panic.
Some soldiers even began to flee, fearing that they would be the next to die.
Emotions of shock, panic, and confusion swept through everyone like a tide, making them swarm like ants on a hot pot. The sounds of stampedes, screams, and discussions were intertwined, creating chaos!
Ashen Annihilation City's generals felt even more incredible.
Their faces were paler than when they faced General Black Viper's fist just now, and their bodies were trembling slightly.
General Black Viper enjoys a very high reputation in the entire Ashen Annihilation City. His strength is definitely at the forefront of Ashen Annihilation City, and he is recognized as one of the top combat powers in the city!
In their perception, apart from the City Lord's Mansion, a few mysterious high-level officials who live in seclusion and are almost never seen by anyone, it is the powerful people like General Black Viper who are the most invincible!
On weekdays, when they see General Black Viper, they must salute respectfully without any slightest indifference.
Therefore, they never thought that General Black Viper would lose to Ye Chen.
Nor did he expect that he would die at the hands of Ye Chen in such an almost comical way.
Not even a chance to resist, just like an insect being crushed to death!
What frightened them even more was that General Black Viper's death was so easy! It was so easy that they doubted whether their previous perceptions of "strong men" were all wrong!
"If I remember correctly, he just drew a sword light in the void and killed General Black Viper?!"
A white-haired general's voice trembled, his gray beard also trembled, and his eyes were full of deep fear.
He subconsciously glanced in the direction of Ye Chen, then quickly lowered his head, for fear of being noticed by the other party.
"Why is the strength gap so big? This is not like a duel at the same level! Even Saint Emperor strong people may not be able to do it so easily, right?!"
"Could it be that... he is already Hundun Saint Emperor?!"
These words were like sparks thrown into boiling oil, instantly igniting everyone's panic!
The commotion among the crowd intensified instantly, and some generals even fell to their knees directly on the ground, their bodies trembling constantly, and their faces full of despair.
Hundun Saint Emperor, that is a realm that only exists in legends, an existence that they don't even dare to look up to!
It can easily kill a Peak God Emperor Stage strong man like crushing an ant.
Besides Hundun Saint Emperor, who is said to be superior to God Emperor, who else can it be?
Everyone was in a daze as if they had been drugged with Body Immobilization Incantation, their pupils shrank suddenly, and even their breathing slowed down for half a beat.
Hundun Saint Emperor!
These four words hit everyone's heart like thunder from the sky, leaving their minds blank, leaving only one desperate thought.
If it is really a Hundun Saint Emperor, how can you play with it?
It's basically the difference between cloud and mud, it's a crushing blow without any power to fight back!
Ashen Annihilation City Many of these generals came from other directions in the city. In a short period of time, no less than a thousand people had gathered in front of the city gate.
Thousands of people stood side by side, their armor rustling in the wind, and each person's breath was as thick as a mountain.
Their strength lies entirely in Late Hunyuan Divine Emperor!
Such a lineup, if placed in an ordinary city, is enough to intimidate a party. Even the middle-level forces will retreat when they see it. It is not an exaggeration to say "frighteningly luxurious"!
But at this moment, facing the figure in white in the sky, these generals who usually charged on the battlefield and were used to seeing bloody storms, all had faces as pale as paper, their teeth were chattering, and even their fingers were shaking uncontrollably.
All the strength in his body seemed to have been drained, and he couldn't even muster the slightest courage to resist.
It's not that they are too timid.
On the contrary, being able to become Ashen Annihilation City generals and hold important positions in this heavily guarded city means that their combat strength and courage in the face of life and death are far superior to ordinary strong men of the same level.
If not, they would not have fought their way through countless competitors and reached their current position!
But so what?
They raised their heads and looked at the figure in white with their feet in the sky high in the sky.
The man's clothes were fluttering, as if he was just standing there casually, but he was like an insurmountable mountain weighing on everyone's heart.
The fear in their hearts was like an icy tide, spreading uncontrollably from the soles of their feet to their whole bodies. A biting coldness climbed up their spines, making their blood seem to freeze in their veins!
Facing a strong Hundun Saint Emperor, their group of Hunyuan Divine Emperor are like ants, no matter how many they gather, what's the use?
It's just a few more bodies.
"Hum... Hundun Saint Emperor?!"
Some people's voices were trembling, their words were incomplete, their lips were trembling, and their eyes were full of fear.
"We must not act rashly!"
Another general lowered his voice in a hurry, fearing that the louder voice would attract the attention of the man above him. His body was so tense that it was almost touching the ground. "If he thinks that we want to use our arms as a chariot and sacrifice ourselves for righteousness, then it will be over!!!"
"Yes! Pretend you are a statue and don't move!!!"
A general suddenly came to his senses and quickly held his breath, not even daring to blink his eyelids, and stood stiffly. "He is so powerful, he will definitely not notice us little characters!!!"
"Don't be afraid. A strong person at that level has a very high vision and will not take trash like us seriously!!!"
Another person tried to cheer himself up, but the trembling in his voice betrayed his fear, and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
"I hope so..."
Someone murmured to himself, his tone full of bitterness. "I don't want to die in the hands of a Hundun Saint Emperor. It's better to die than to live!!!"
None of these thousands of Ashen Annihilation City generals dared to act rashly.
Some hurriedly lowered their heads, with their chins almost touching their chests, and their backs bent like shrimps, to show their submission.
Some just froze in place, not daring to move their hands or feet, pretending that they were so frightened that they couldn't even react.
They only have one thought in their minds, that is, they must not move!
Even if you move your fingers even slightly, the strong man in white may be regarded as a rebel. Then he may not even be able to hold him back Divine Capital, and he will be killed directly!
On the other side, seeing that Ye Chen had taken action to resolve the crisis, Xie Purou and Youruo immediately burst into smiles and rushed to Ye Chen like two cheerful birds.
Youruo moved faster and grabbed Ye Chen's left arm. Xie Purou followed suit and grabbed his right arm, one on the left and one on the right, very intimately.
Youruo raised his little face with a smile, his eyes were bent into crescent moons, and there was a hint of coquettishness in his tone. "Master, if you come a little later, we will be beaten to death by those people!!!"
Ye Chen lowered his head, looked at the pretty disciples beside him, with a faint smile on his lips, and joked, "I'm afraid I'm here too early, you'll beat them all to death, and then I won't have a chance to take action!"
When Xie Purou heard this, he immediately wrinkled his little nose and snorted lightly, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone. "Master, if you get us better equipment, we might really be able to kill them all!!!"
As she spoke, she puffed out her chest, as if to prove her strength.
In her opinion, as long as she has enough treasures to increase her combat power and kill all the generals here, it is not a problem at all.
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly, raised his hand, and tapped her head lightly.
There was a soft "thunk" sound, and Xie Purou immediately grimaced in pain, frowned, and quickly covered the hit area with his hand.
She rubbed the aching place on her head, pouted her mouth so much that it could hang on an oil bottle, and complained to Ye Chen, "Master, why are you hitting me?! I'm telling the truth!"
Ye Chen put away his smile and said with a bit of seriousness in his tone, "I'm just afraid that you have such thoughts!"
He paused and continued, "The main purpose of giving you armor is to protect you and keep you safe. As for the increase in combat power, it is not that important."
He knew very well that if he really gave them too powerful armor, they would have the power to kill Peak Hunyuan Divine Emperor strong men.
Then they are likely to be immersed in this feeling of control, become proud and complacent, and even lose themselves.
If you give them Saint Emperor level treasures, it may not be helping them, but it may be harming them.
Possessing power far beyond their own realm too early will not be of much benefit to their cultivation path.
Hearing what Ye Chen said, Xie Purou was still a little unconvinced, but he also knew that Master was doing it for his own good, so he could only pouted and muttered in a low voice, "I know, I know!"
While the three of them, the master and the apprentice, were chatting easily, Ashen Annihilation City and City Lord's Mansion were already in a state of chaos, but with a kind of nervousness before a storm.
The whole City Lord's Mansion became extremely lively, but also full of depression.
The death of General Black Viper is definitely a huge event for the City Lord's Mansion.
No matter what, General Black Viper is the backbone member of the City Lord's Mansion. He holds real power and is the real core executive.
Now that he was killed at the gate of his city, it would be really abnormal if City Lord's Mansion didn't even make any movement. If word spread, it would only make people think that Ashen Annihilation City is easy to bully!
Ye Chen killed General Black Viper. This move was undoubtedly a complete declaration of war with the City Lord's Mansion in front of everyone!
Almost at the moment when General Black Viper's body fell to the ground, an angry shout suddenly sounded from a hall deep in the City Lord's Mansion.
The sound exploded like thunder, causing the pillars of the hall to tremble slightly. "Black Viper is dead! Who is he that is so bold and dares to attack my Ashen Annihilation City people?!"
When this roaring sound resounded throughout the City Lord's Mansion, an extremely domineering aura rose into the sky from the hall, spreading like real pressure, causing the servants and guards in the mansion to kneel to the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.
The owner of the City Lord's Mansion, this Lord of Ashen Annihilation City, is standing in the center of the hall with a pale face.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since such a bad thing happened.
Someone dared to kill City Lord's Mansion's core executives on Ashen Annihilation City's territory!
You know, Ashen Annihilation City belongs to one of the territories of the Shangguan Household Clan.
Shangguan Household Clan is so powerful that no one dares to mess with it in this area. Over the years, no one has dared to cause trouble here!
Now that General Black Viper has been killed, the murderer is undoubtedly provoking Shangguan Household Clan's majesty. How can he not be angry?
He knew very well that General Black Viper was killed, and this matter could never be left alone. The murderer would definitely usher in the City Lord's Mansion's most blazing anger!
The next second, this tall figure rushed out of the hall like an arrow from a string, and rushed straight into the City Lord's Mansion sky.
The sun shone on him, illuminating his armor.
This is a blue-black battle armor. Each scale of the battle armor is polished as smooth as a mirror and shines in the sun. The edges of the scales are also engraved with fine lines, emitting faint law fluctuations.
This person is the city lord of Ashen Annihilation City!
