Even the commander-in-chief, Che Wen Zhong, couldn't control this reckless middle-aged man.
Ye Li was too lazy to waste any more words.
"..."
As he finished speaking...
Wei Shan's sneer froze instantly, because the Baiyi Daoist had already arrived in front of him!
It was moving so fast that even he could barely see it clearly.
Wei Shan's pupils contracted slightly.
Immediately afterwards.
The Daoist priest had golden lines between his eyebrows that resembled a third eye, and a pair of clear black eyes that held a smile. But no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the smile carried a hint of ferocity and horror.
Something's not right!
Wasn't it agreed that he would be a Venerable of the Heaven and Earth Realm?!
What's with this overwhelming sense of crisis?!
Wei Shan was immediately alarmed.
He hurriedly channeled his inner energy, and a sense of weight and solidity, like that of a mountain, appeared around him.
However, this time, the [Method of Heavy Mountain], which had always been invincible, did not bring him any sense of security whatsoever.
This only made him more anxious.
The constricted pupils reflected the scene before them.
The boy suddenly produced a gleaming, celestial Immortal Sword from somewhere and quietly grasped it in his palm.
Boom!!--
The next moment, a sharp sword cry rose from the central command tent!
The dazzling white light revealed its sharp edge, transforming into a roaring and surging dragon that soared into the sky, engulfing Wei Shan's figure with overwhelming force!
Wei Shan's expression changed drastically. He was originally a martial artist who excelled in close combat, and now he had even reached the realm of Half-step True Person.
Facing a Venerable of the Heaven and Earth Realm should be as easy as a strong adult bullying an infant.
At this moment, however, they were completely unable to stop this mighty and fierce dragon of Sword Qi!
Boom!!
The vast true energy, far surpassing the Heaven and Earth Realm, erupted unrestrainedly. A raging gale swept across the land, blood splattered, and towering trees in the mountains, which would take more than ten people to encircle, were instantly snapped and collapsed by the aftershocks of the Sword Qi!
The earth shook violently!
A disheveled, bloodied figure crashed straight through countless giant trees and rocks, carving a wide Great Dao several miles long through the mountains and forests. The rocks on both sides of the road were all crushed into dust by the overflowing energy!
Thick smoke and dust billowed up.
However, it could not obscure the vision of High-Tier Martial Artist in the slightest.
Amidst countless horrified and astonished gazes.
Ye Li's hair fluttered, and with a light tap of his feet, he vanished from the spot like lightning.
Before the bloody shadow hit the ground, he had already grabbed Wei Shan's face in mid-air and then slammed him downwards!
Boom!
The entire Cloud Pine Mountain trembled, and Wei Shan's momentum as he flew backward was immediately stopped. His dazed head slammed into the ground, creating a dark, deep crater, with fine cracks spreading outwards like a spider web.
He was disoriented, and his already shocked mind was now filled with disbelief.
The immense force coming from his head almost crushed it!
Such terrifying physical strength is hardly like that of a Venerable of the Heaven and Earth Realm; rather, it's more like that of a Half-step True Person who has tempered their physical body for countless years!
I need to find a chance to tell the moon on the mountain...
Wei Shan's consciousness was blurred, and he instinctively summoned the Dharma Form of his own Venerable One.
However, the moment the Dharma Form was revealed, it was struck head-on by countless incomprehensible impacts and instantly shattered into countless fragments!
Instant Strike True Intent, a thousand strikes in an instant!
"Puff!"
With his Dharma Form shattered, Wei Shan's true body was instantly backfired, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Elder Ye! Elder Ye!!"
A voice filled with shock and disbelief rang out, and the accomplished elder finally realized the gap between them.
But before he could even beg for mercy...
The next moment, an extremely cold and chilling energy shot down from the top of his head, instantly taking away his remaining consciousness, and even the surrounding mountains and forests turned into a pure ice and snow world!
"..."
Che Wen Zhong abruptly stopped in his tracks, his expression turning somewhat blank.
He had no doubt that if Wei Shan had acted any more recklessly, that Elder Ye could have killed him with a single blow.
The question is, how could a newly promoted Guest Elder possess such formidable combat power?
Even he subconsciously shuddered inwardly!
Two moves and he took down a Half-step True Person...
Is this still the Heaven and Earth Realm?!
The old man never dreamed that there would be such a powerful Guest Elder in the Heavenly Supervision Department, who would travel so far to help him with this mess!
Not only him, but all the disciples of the Heavenly Supervision Department in the entire camp were dumbfounded. "..."
The only other person wearing that iconic Baiyi, besides Elder Che Wen Zhong who was as dumbfounded as they were, was the annoying Elder Wei Shan.
Having reached the level of Half-step True Person, it's understandable that he holds back against his enemies.
He even frequently ordered them to charge into battle from the mountains, causing the needless loss of so many comrades, while he himself stood by and watched. It was truly despicable.
As hateful as they may be, Wei Shan's strength was indeed so formidable that they were filled with awe as one of the few high-end combat forces in Tai'an Grand Prefecture.
Right now, however, he was being brutally beaten like a dead dog by a strange guest with Jade Token on his waist.
Such a scene was far too shocking for everyone.
Wei Shan is no ordinary stray dog; he is a genuine powerhouse from the Eastern Continent, a Half-step True Person realm expert.
As the hearts of many members of the Heavenly Supervision Department pounded, a strange sense of exhilaration also welled up within them.
[Seriously injuring a half-step Divine Connection Realm Law Enforcement Elder of the Tai'a Heavenly Supervision Department in public, Malice Points +!]
"..."
Che Wen Zhong silently walked to the front of the deep pit, looked at Elder Wei Shan whose fate was unknown, and suddenly felt like laughing for no reason.
Fortunately, he managed to hold it in.
Then, the old man turned around, bowed and clasped his hands in greeting to the Baiyi priest who remained composed, and breathed a sigh of relief:
"Thank you for your kindness, Elder Ye, for sparing Elder Wei's life."
He knew it very well.
Wei Shan's life or death was entirely in the hands of this Elder Ye just now.
The reason they didn't kill him on the spot was because they gave him face; the [Dragon Tiger Roaring Sea Pill] they gave him to strengthen his foundation was well worth it.
"..."
Ye Li glanced at him, then chuckled and looked away.
It wasn't out of kindness.
On the contrary, he felt it was too lenient to let such a scoundrel who insulted his friends and showed mercy to his enemies, causing his side to suffer heavy losses, die so easily.
Moreover, judging from what Elder Che said earlier, Wei Shan seemed to still have some old feelings for the Nine Cauldron Sword Master on the mountain.
That must be what a simp is.
Since that's the case, then let him see how his goddess gets ruined.
Then, rewards and punishments will be determined based on merit; those who deserve to be killed will be killed, and those who deserve to be spared will be spared.
Ye Li composed himself, glanced sideways at the summit of Yunsong Mountain where blood-red energy soared into the sky, and asked:
"Is Cloud Pine Mountain truly a monolithic entity? Is everyone in the sect utterly loyal to Zhu Yue?"
If that's the case, then he doesn't need to worry about the principle of "the culprit is the perpetrator, and the debtor is the creditor."
The opposing sect had chosen its own path, and they must have been mentally prepared for the inevitable outcome.
How could that be?
Upon hearing this, Che Wen Zhong shook his head, while instructing his subordinates to carry the frozen Wei Shan back to the tent to thaw him, and explained to the boy:
"Although Zhu Yue has some prestige in this Tai'an Grand Prefecture due to her many achievements in her early years, she does not have such a strong sense of unity."
"The reason why the Nine Tripod Sword Sect is currently united is basically because it is a desperate measure to save its own life."
