Ye Xuan stared in slight surprise at Huang Jingshan, who had suddenly appeared in the distance.
This seems to be a Half-Saint.
Half-Saint, should he make a move or not?
If it were before, he would definitely have acted without hesitation.
For him, Half-Saint was nothing more than a slap in the face.
Once the Power of Rules is unleashed, and a single slap is delivered, even Peak Half-Saint will have to kneel.
The problem is, he can't use his Power of Rules now.
Ye Xuan was conflicted, genuinely conflicted.
However, the Spiritual Qi within his body was already surging wildly, ready to strike at any moment.
Since it was a collaboration, he couldn't just stand by and watch Yue Mei die. Whether he could kill her or not, he had to take action.
On the other side.
Seeing Yue Mei's expression, Huang Jingshan sneered and suddenly asked, "Where's that kid? Weren't you with him? Where is he?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Mei was startled and almost collapsed to the ground.
How should she answer this question?
Furthermore, didn't even Deacon Huang sense Ye Xuan's presence?
Could it be that Ye Xuan, sensing the unfavorable situation, has already slipped away?
Thinking of this, Yue Mei became even more uneasy.
For a moment, I stammered and didn't know how to answer.
"You wretch, it seems you've really grown bolder these past few days!"
Seeing Yue Mei's expression, Huang Jingshan was furious; he was practically about to explode with rage.
How could a lowly ant, who once groveled before me, dare to repeatedly ignore my questions?
You should know that back then, Yue Mei would never have dared to act like this in front of him.
Huang Jingshan laughed in anger, too lazy to waste any more time.
However, he was about to make his move—
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Several figures suddenly flew over.
" Fairy Yue?"
"You audacious scoundrel, how dare you harm the Fairy Yue! You're courting death!"
Those people were furious when they saw that Huang Jingshan was actually planning to attack Yue Mei.
In an instant, seven or eight figures descended from the void, surrounding Huang Jingshan.
These seven or eight people possessed powerful auras, fierce momentum, and overwhelming killing intent.
One of them had reached the Early Half-Saint, while the other six were all at the Venerable Realm.
The seven men unleashed their auras, a vast pressure sweeping down, their gazes all coldly fixed on Huang Jingshan, their killing intent surging wildly, clearly ready for a great battle.
Seeing this, not only was Yue Mei dumbfounded, but even Huang Jingshan was stunned.
As for Ye Xuan, who was not far away, his expression changed several times before he abandoned his plan to make a move.
Six more Venerable and one Half-Saint have arrived; what a formidable lineup!
What kind of deep-seated hatred could there be? All they did was kill Xue Zhaohai and seize a merchant ship!
The Thousand Leaves Merchant Association really has quite a presence.
Ye Xuan cursed inwardly, but his eyes were incredibly cold.
He now practically wanted to storm into the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association and wipe out that damned place.
"Who are you? How dare you surround this Holy One? Do you want to die?"
Huang Jingshan was furious to see himself surrounded by a swarm of ants.
His angry shout resounded throughout the heavens and earth, followed by a thunderous boom, and his aura surged wildly.
In an instant, everything around them shattered under the impact of that force.
The two Venerable Realm cultivators surrounding him turned pale and then coughed up a mouthful of blood.
" Half-Saint, Middle Half-Saint?"
At this, the expressions of all seven people changed, even the leader, Early Half-Saint, was no exception.
They never expected that Huang Jingshan's cultivation level was actually at the Middle Half-Saint; wasn't he supposed to only be at the Spirit Transformation Realm?
Currently, there is a wide variety of information circulating about Ye Xuan from the outside world.
Some say Ye Xuan only has the cultivation level of Spirit Transformation cultivator, while others say Ye Xuan is a powerful Divine Emperor Realm, and still others say he is Half-Saint Ye Xuan, possessing the strength to kill Half-Saint.
There are so many conflicting opinions, and it's impossible to know which one those guys believe.
Yue Mei was caught in the middle, also in a precarious situation, her face deathly pale.
"What should I do? What should I do? You guys are fighting, can't you let me get away and lay low for a while?"
Yue Mei was truly on the verge of tears; the sheer power of so many powerful figures erupting from them was almost too much for her to handle.
If no one had deliberately targeted her, or even avoided her, the clash of their auras alone would probably have torn her to shreds.
"You madman, you're about to die, yet you still dare to be arrogant. You're surrounded now. The ten Saint Realm seniors of the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association have arrived; you can't escape."
"If you know what's good for you, release Fairy Yue immediately and surrender. Otherwise, I guarantee you will definitely die."
The Half-Saint who surrounded Huang Jingshan, though somewhat apprehensive, still spoke up, as the saying goes, "A coward may be afraid, but the situation is not."
As he spoke, he casually waved his hand, and with a whoosh, a red light was instantly activated, exploding in the sky.
Huang Jingshan tried to stop him, but it was too late.
His face grew even darker, and he was practically seething with hatred inside.
Now he knew perfectly well that these people had misunderstood him and mistook him for Ye Xuan.
However, he simply couldn't explain this kind of thing, and even if he did, people wouldn't believe him.
Although Huang Jingshan was not afraid of these people, he did not want to fight them.
Just as the other party said, the Ten Saint Realm of the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association have descended, and these people have all come to capture Ye Xuan.
If he kills the other party, and the Saint Realm descends, how will he explain it? At that time, he'll probably be unable to clear his name even if he jumps into the Yellow River.
Huang Jingshan was furious and his eyes suddenly turned to Yue Mei. He said, " Yue Mei, you tell them who I am?"
"Ah? You, you--" Although Yue Mei's cultivation level was not high, she was not stupid, and she knew exactly what Huang Jingshan meant.
For a moment, she suddenly took several steps back, as if she had been frightened, stammering and unable to utter a complete sentence.
" Yue Mei, you—" Upon seeing this, Huang Jingshan was absolutely furious; he even felt like killing Yue Mei.
Left with no other choice, he could only glare angrily at Yue Mei, then look at the seven people and say coldly, "I am not that madman, but a steward of the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association Guild. Do you really want to be my enemy?"
However, the seven people simply did not believe Huang Jingshan's words. After all, if he were really a steward of the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association, why would he lay a hand on Yue Mei? Yue Mei was a hostage kidnapped by Ye Xuan.
The leading Half-Saint said, "In that case, let Fairy Yue come over first, and then we can discuss other matters."
Huang Jingshan was furious, but he firmly shook his head. "No way!"
He was joking; Yue Mei was his bargaining chip to return to the Thousand Leaves Merchant Association, how could he hand her over?
Ye Xuan was utterly speechless at the sight.
Let them fight. It's like dogs fighting; they'll only end up with a lot of fur. Why waste so much breath?
"This is really troublesome. Since you guys aren't going to fight, I'll lend you a hand."
With a muttered word, Ye Xuan didn't waste any more words. The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword quietly seeped into the ground, and the next moment, it suddenly emanated from beneath the feet of one of the Venerable Realm.
With a soft "poof," the Venerable Realm cultivator was instantly blown to pieces.
"Ah, he attacked us from behind—"
A piercing scream, like that of a pig being slaughtered, suddenly rang out.
A great battle suddenly broke out!
