Ye Xuan exuded a powerful killing intent and a chilling aura!
With a loud bang, he stomped his foot heavily on the city wall, and with a whoosh, he shot forward like a cannonball!
" Ye Xuan!"
One of the Zhou Lineage' expressions changed, and he couldn't help but scream in horror!
However, he only managed to utter two words before Ye Xuan punched him hard in the body with a loud thud.
A surge of powerful Spiritual Qi erupted, its immense force like a ferocious beast, relentlessly invading his body.
In an instant, with a whoosh, his body was sent flying like a meteorite. While in mid-air, his body began to explode, turning into flesh and blood.
With a thud, it fell to the ground, completely lifeless.
Ye Xuan didn't pause at all, his gaze cold.
He didn't even glance at the Zhou Lineage cultivator who had been blasted away; he was already charging towards the others.
These people all want to take advantage of the chaos and escape the city. How is that possible?
" Ye Xuan, you can't do this!!!"
" Ye Xuan, you will get your retribution!"
When those people saw Ye Xuan charging towards them, they were terrified and couldn't help but scream hysterically.
However, Ye Xuan showed no mercy whatsoever.
Everyone only saw a blur flash by, followed by a series of loud bangs as the Zhou Lineage were sent flying one after another.
Crimson blood fell from mid-air, staining the earth and filling the air with a pungent, chilling stench.
Ye Xuan's attack was incredibly ruthless and precise; he did not harm any innocent people, but only targeted the Zhou Lineage.
Wherever it passed, none of the Zhou Lineage who were hiding among them survived; they all fell into pools of blood, all killed instantly!
Ye Xuan continued his advance, killing as he went, towards the Zhou Lineage in the city center.
The image of Nangong Dai, and the images of those innocent people who had died, appeared in his mind.
Regardless of right or wrong, their very stance predetermined their fate.
The Zhou Lineage.
The atmosphere inside the solemn hall was incredibly somber.
"What do we do? What do we do? Big brother, look at what you've done! Now Ye Xuan is coming! What should we do?"
At one point, a Zhou Lineage expert at the Heavenly Position Realm couldn't help but roar in exasperation, his anger directed at the family head, Zhou Changsheng.
Zhou Changsheng's expression was also extremely grim. He said in a deep voice, "What can I do now that things have come to this?"
"You all know what happened that day, don't you? You all know the domineering nature and style of the Carefree Holy Land, don't you?"
"If we hadn't submitted, obeyed, and followed their orders, we would have been destroyed on the spot. It's already a miracle that our Zhou Lineage has managed to survive until today."
Upon hearing this, the other Zhou Lineage fell silent.
They knew that what Zhou Changsheng said was true, but now that Ye Xuan had come to kill them and even threatened to wipe out their entire family, they were filled with grief and indignation.
Although the Zhou Lineage is a small Lineage, it has been passed down for hundreds of Lineage. They would not be willing to be wiped out like this.
"Those bastards from the Carefree Holy Land failed us at the crucial moment! They let the Divine Emperor Realm run away, and even when we called for help, no one came! It's utterly despicable!"
"This is just how the Carefree Holy Land is; we'll get used to it. We should have expected this outcome—it's like trying to get something from a tiger!"
"Damn it, let's fight! Let's fight that Ye Xuan! If we can take Ye Xuan down with us, even if our Zhou Lineage is wiped out, we'll still have come out ahead!"
The Zhou Lineage members were abuzz with discussion. Some cursed the Carefree Holy Land as scoundrels, while others gritted their teeth, wishing they could drag Ye Xuan down with them.
Even the patriarch Zhou Changsheng's face turned extremely ferocious, his face ashen as he said, "That Ye Xuan dares to invade my Changtian City alone, he's simply arrogant!"
"Let the juniors engage him first, while we, the Heavenly Position cultivators, wait for our opportunity to strike and kill Ye Xuan by surprise."
"If I can kill him, even if my Zhou Lineage is destroyed, it will be worth it!"
In fact, the Zhou Lineage had already considered all of this after choosing to submit to the Carefree Holy Land.
In the beginning, the Carefree Holy Land still had a Divine Emperor Realm expert stationed in the Zhou Lineage.
However, with the Carefree Holy Land suffering a setback and the Ancient Desolate Holy Land launching a counterattack, that Divine Emperor Realm expert was also recalled.
They had considered leaving, but firstly, they were truly reluctant to give up their centuries-old legacy, and secondly, they had a vague feeling that the Zhou Lineage was being targeted by powerful figures and that they had no way to escape.
Therefore, they have now become like trapped beasts, left only to passively await their death.
They also sought help from the Carefree Holy Land to deal with the arrival of powerful figures from the Ancient Desolate Holy Land, but received no response whatsoever.
However, at that moment, a cold snort suddenly entered the main hall.
Immediately, an extremely cold voice reached everyone's ears.
"Anyone below the Heavenly Position Realm Early Stage may attack! Anyone above the Heavenly Position Realm Early Stage will die!"
The sound was like a thunderclap, instantly exploding in everyone's ears, causing everyone to be terrified and filled with horror.
As the voice faded, Zhou Changsheng and the others were even more horrified to discover that countless ice swords had suddenly appeared in front of them.
In an instant, the temperature in the entire hall plummeted!
Whoosh whoosh!
After those ice swords appeared, they exploded with a deafening sound, instantly tearing through the air and hurtling towards all the experts above the Heavenly Position Realm Early Stage.
No, no!!!
In an instant, Zhou Changsheng and the others' expressions changed, they were utterly terrified!
Their Spiritual Qi surged wildly, their auras raged, and their faces were twisted and ferocious as they frantically tried to resist or evade.
However, faced with the terrifying speed and power of the ice sword, they had no way to avoid it or block it.
With a series of hissing sounds, in the blink of an eye, all the cultivators above the Heavenly Position Realm Early Stage fell into pools of blood.
Seeing this scene, the remaining seven Heavenly Position Realm Early Stage couldn't help but turn pale.
They trembled, silent as cicadas in winter, feeling an endless chill enveloping their entire bodies, filled with utter terror and horror.
This is absolutely terrifying!
Three Heavenly Position Realm Middle Stage and two Peak Heavenly Position Realm died just like that.
Before that immense power, they, who were only at the Heavenly Position Early Stage, were not even ants.
"What to do?"
Seeing this, one of the seven couldn't help but ask a question.
His teeth were chattering and his lips were trembling as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, the other person suppressed his fear and gritted his teeth, saying, "What can we do? What else can we do? Of course, we can only fight to the death!"
"Haven't you realized yet? That powerful figure is clearly using us as training material, treating us as prey for Ye Xuan to test."
"Now, all we can do is fight to the death. Even if we can't kill Ye Xuan, making him suffer some injuries and hardship would be good enough!"
Upon hearing this, the seven people gradually regained their composure and all nodded through gritted teeth.
They are human beings too; they don't want to die, and they dislike being treated like trapped prey or subjects of trials.
But since we can't change it, we can only fight desperately and try our best to make Ye Xuan pay a heavy price!
As for killing, they hadn't even considered it.
Killing him is definitely out of the question, but making Ye Xuan pay the price shouldn't be a problem.
Since it's a trial, as long as Ye Xuan doesn't die, even if they cripple Ye Xuan, that powerful figure probably won't interfere.
