Ye Yuan’s figure appeared, his eyes being incomparably cold.
Fang Kun looked at Ye Yuan and could not resist shuddering.
Those eyes even made a trace of chill well up from the bottom of his heart.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said coolly, “I already gave you the chance and asked you to get lost, but it’s you who didn’t cherish it yourself. So, go and die.”
Ye Yuan lightly pointed a finger out, directly piercing through Fang Kun’s heart, destroying all his vitality.
Thud!
The divine vestige dissipated, Fang Kun’s corpse fell to the ground powerlessly. The surrounding was deathly quiet.
Carefree Grove’s guardian, the peak Ninth Firmament Celestial Deity Lord Fang Kun, actually died just like this?
Everyone exchanged glances, completely no idea what happened.
“Go!”
Ye Yuan pulled Jiang Haitang and strutted out of Carefree Grove just like this, swaggering off.
The two great protectors exchanged a glance, there was only shock left in the other party’s eyes.
This scene was too astounding.
Originally thought that there would be a heaven-shocking great battle, no one could have thought that Fang Kun died bafflingly just like this.
Chapter 1903. A Slight Move in One Part May Affect the Situation as a Whole |
“What did you say?! Fang Kun was killed by a Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity?”
When Yu Jinsong got this news, he nearly jumped up from the seat.
Fang Kun’s strength, he was all too clear.
How could a Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity possibly kill him?
His first reaction when he heard this news was that he did not believe it.
“I-Isn’t that so? That boy used no idea what method, just like a cocoon, enveloping Lord Fang Kun inside. In just a blink of an eye, he died.”
When the leader of the four great protectors recalled the situation back then, he still had lingering fear in his heart until now.
With Ye Yuan causing a disturbance, the Carefree Grove came to a total standstill and was totally unable to operate anymore.
That place was a money squandering establishment, it was a tremendous source of revenue to the City Lord Manor.
With this, it was chopped by Ye Yuan. Yu Jinsong’s fury could be imagined.
Yu Jinsong was angered until his expression was livid. Looking at the protector, he said, “You said that that kid came from Southridge’s Heavenly Eagle Imperial City? Furthermore, he was just Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s head elder?”
The protector sweat cold sweat profusely and said with a nod, “Yes, Young Master! That kid’s identity has already been investigated clearly. It’s Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s head elder, Ye Yuan. Before going to Carefree Grove, he even made a trip to Flowing Wind Establishment and almost tore down the entire Flowing Wind Establishment! Oh, right, before he came to the imperial capital, he even killed the Wu Family’s young master, Wu Tian, as well as the Wu Family’s Eighth Firmament Celestial Deity retainer, Wu Yun. Coming to the imperial capital this time, he should be here for Jiang Jadehall’s case.”
The City Lord Manor’s investigative ability was still extremely strong. Just used a night and they already inquired about Ye Yuan’s ins and outs clearly.
Hearing the protector report one news after another, Yu Jinsong’s expression flickered incessantly.
In this short half a month’s time, Ye Yuan already turned Nine Pledge Imperial Capital upside down, directly offending the three major forces.
Although the Wu Family’s strength could not compare to these three forces, they were absolutely not some soft persimmon either.
The Wu Family’s ancestor was a True God Realm powerhouse!
Yu Jinsong narrowed his eyes like a venomous snake and said in a cold voice, “Pass down the order for me. Three days later, openly execute Jiang Jadehall in Heavenly Grove Plaza! At that time, we’ll lay down an inescapable net. This young master wants to see whether he has three heads and six arms or not!”
…
The news spread to City Lord Manor. As one of the three great factions, Kongming Academy naturally would not be unaware.
Song Yancai was currently standing in front of a middle-aged man but was fearful after the event in his heart.
Luckily when Ye Yuan left back then, he did not really make a move to stop.
Otherwise, his outcome would be exactly the same as Fang Kun.
Hang on, his strength was far worse than Fang Kun, there was no hope of surviving at all.
“Presently, the situation in the city is very delicate. Before yesterday night, most likely no one would have thought that an imperial city’s head elder would actually stir up such a great disturbance!” The middle-aged man heaved a sigh and said.
Song Yancai smiled bitterly and said, “Who could have thought that a Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity brat could kill his way through Carefree Grove?”
The middle-aged nodded his head and said, “Jiang Jadehall is merely a puny little patrolling inspector and is totally insignificant. Waging war with City Lord Manor and Linghua Pavilion for him was seriously unwise. It’s just that no one would have thought that he actually got acquainted with such a remarkable young man. Carefree Grove’s business, everyone is very envious of it. No one has ever dared to cause trouble inside before. Who could have thought that Ye Yuan actually wiped them all out!”
Song Yancai said, “Then what should we do now? Ye Yuan already poked a hole in the sky, yet we … are very passive!”
The middle-aged shook his head and said, “People above have already given the word. Jiang Jadehall must be protected! The City Lord Manor and Linghua Pavilion are eager for action. This boy has such terrifying talent, so he’ll definitely be able to assist us in the future. Hence, we have to make up for the past blunder at all costs!”
When Song Yancai heard this, his expression changed slightly.
…
Everyone in the city was searching for Ye Yuan. But after he brought Jiang Haitang away from the Carefree Grove, his entire person seemed to have evaporated into thin air. No one could find him.
The City Lord Manor wanted to kill Ye Yuan, but they could not find him.
Kongming Academy wanted to find Ye Yuan to explain things, but sadly, they could not find Ye Yuan either.
Three days’ time passed in a flash.
The matter of publicly executing Jiang Jadehall was already announced to the whole city through the City Lord Manor.
When he saw the light again, Jiang Jadehall felt that it was rather piercing to the eye.
He originally thought that he would die inside the jail dubiously just like that, but he did not expect that in order to kill him, the City Lord Manor made such a big commotion.
Suddenly, a group of people in front came over.
Seeing that person in the front, Jiang Jadehall’s entire body trembled slightly.
It was precisely the one who framed him, getting him thrown in jail.
Yu Jinsong came in front of Jiang Jadehall and said with a smug smile, “Jiang Jadehall, are you very curious why killing you, a puny little patrolling inspector, would still cause such a big disturbance?”
Jiang Jadehall’s heart was long akin to dead ash, how he died had no difference to him.
The only thing that he was worried about was his daughter.
Mucking around in Nine Pledge Imperial Capital for so long, Jiang Jadehall naturally understood his situation.
He was merely the sacrificial item of the upper echelons’ fight.
Who could care about the life or death of a puny little patrolling inspector?
Jiang Jadehall drew a deep breath and looked at Yu Jinsong as he said, “Young Master Yu, Jiang Jadehall is merely a minor character, so death isn’t regrettable. It’s just that I hope you won’t make things difficult for my daughter.”
“Hahaha!” Yu Jinsong laughed loudly and said, “How could I bear to ma
ke things difficult for Haitang, my Lord Father-in-law!”
Jiang Jadehall’s entire body trembled, looking at Yu Jinsong in great alarm and rage, he said, “You … What did you do to her?”
Yu Jinsong looked at Jiang Jadehall with a smile that was not a smile and said, “What can I do to her? She came to beg me, beg me to let you out. I say, meat that’s delivered to my mouth, I can’t spit it out, right? Tsk tsk, didn’t expect that you, a coarse man, your daughter was actually so ravishing, really electrifying!”
Jiang Jadehall was angered until his entire body trembled and he roared furiously, “You … Animal! Animal!”
Jiang Jadehall bared his teeth, roaring at Yu Jinsong, but two rows of tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
His heart was currently already completely broken.
But Yu Jinsong laughed very happily. Patting Jiang Jadehall’s shoulder, he said, “Don’t be in a hurry. I still have a piece of good news to tell you! Someone came to save you!”
The current Jiang Jadehall could not hear Jiang Jadehall’s words anymore at all. His mind was full of the image of his daughter being humiliated, hating to the extreme in his heart, and also hurting to the extreme.
Seeing that Jiang Jadehall did not react, Yu Jinsong asked with a smile, “You know Ye Yuan, right?”
Hearing this scene, Jiang Jadehall’s entire body trembled, his eyes finally recovering clarity, looking at Yu Jinsong with a disbelieving look.
“You … You’re saying that Ye Yuan he came back?”
Yu Jinsong nodded and said, “Not only did he come back, he even rescued your daughter from Carefree Grove. Are you very pleasantly surprised?”
“C-Carefree Grove? How is that possible?” Jiang Jadehall’s pupils constricted, instantly thinking of many things.
But, hearing that his daughter was rescued, Jiang Jadehall also felt his heart ease up.
But very soon, his face changed, looking at Yu Jinsong with indignation, gnashing his teeth in hatred.
Chapter 1904. Not Giving Face. |
“You … You want to publicly execute me in order to lure Ye Yuan out?” Jiang Jadehall said with a furious roar.
Yu Jinsong had a smug look as he said smilingly, “You’re not stupid, understanding it so quickly. Today, City Lord Manor has already arranged three True God Realm experts to lie in wait around the execution ground. The moment he appears, the three great True God Realm powerhouses will attack at the same time! You guess, what will be his outcome? Hahaha!”
Jiang Jadehall was incomparably shocked in his heart. In order to deal with Ye Yuan, the City Lord Manor actually sent out three True God Realm powerhouses.
Ye Yuan’s strength was actually already powerful to such a degree?
It had just been a short few hundred years, Ye Yuan’s growth completely exceeded his imagination.
Ye Yuan barged into a dragon’s lair, a tiger’s den alone in order to save him and save Jiang Haitang. He was very touched in his heart.
This made his promise to Ye Yuan become very important.
Except, this Yu Jinsong was shameless when doing things, by fair means or foul.
If he rashly came to save him, wouldn’t he lose his life in vain?
Thinking up to here, his hatred toward Yu Jinsong was even more akin to a wave that dashed to the sky.
“You … Despicable! Shameless! Yu Jinsong, even if I, Jiang Jadehall, become a ghost, I won’t let you off either!”
Jiang Jadehall gnashed his teeth in hatred, doing his best, wanting to break free of the shackles.
It was just a pity that this shackle was forged from purple gold divine metal. Forget that his divine sea was sealed, even normally, it was impossible to break free too.
“Become a ghost? Hehe, you need to have a chance to become a ghost too! Bring him away!”
Yu Jinsong waved his sleeves grandly, the guard escorted Jiang Jadehall and marched for the execution grounds.
Jiang Jadehall was being sent away, his face ashen.
He hated Yu Jinsong, he hated his inability!
But he was completely powerless to change anything.
“Ye Yuan, you … shouldn’t have come!” Two rows of hot tears flowed down his face.
…
There had never been a lack of those who wanted to watch the fun. Currently, Heavenly Grove Plaza was long already packed full of people, nowhere to find a foothold at all.
“Really can’t understand why executing a puny little patrolling inspector has to cause such a big commotion.”
“Heh, you don’t know this, right? Do you know who was the girl who was rescued, slaughtering their way out of Carefree Grove? It’s this Jiang Jadehall’s daughter! This show today, the real interest of the drunkard isn’t in the wine!”
“You’re talking about that Ye Yuan? Terrific lad, that’s a god! A Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity and he actually slew Lord Fang Kun, truly remarkable.”
“A shame! This scheme that Young Master Yu came up with today, even if Ye Yuan knows that it’s a pit, he has to jump too! Unless, he doesn’t want to save Jiang Jadehall anymore.”
…
The matter of Ye Yuan causing a disturbance in Carefree Grove was no longer some secret long ago. It caused a huge stir in the city.
Curious folks naturally clawed out the whole sequence of events.
Originally, an insignificant patrolling inspector. But now, because of Ye Yuan’s trouble-making, the degree of focus was extremely high.
Today, so many people came, wanting to see whether Ye Yuan dared to come or not.
Yu Jinsong sat on the seat of honor with a relaxed look.
“Discovered Ye Yuan yet?” Yu Jinsong said to the protector behind him.
This Wang Hu was precisely the leader of the four great protectors who had once fought with Ye Yuan before.
Hearing Yu Jinsong’s question, Wang Hu shook his head and said, “Reporting to Young Master, didn’t discover traces. Young Master, we put on such a grand line-up, so he … probably don’t dare to come, right?”
Yu Jinsong smiled and said, “This kid has been friends with Jiang Jadehall for several hundred years, their friendship very close. This time, for Jiang Jadehall’s sake, he barged into Carefree Grove alone and rescued Jiang Haitang. It can be seen how important he views Jiang Jadehall. Therefore, there’s no way he doesn’t come! You continue investigating. Once you discover his trace, don’t act rashly and alert the enemy. Tell me immediately.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Wang Hu received the order and left.
In order to capture Ye Yuan, Yu Jinsong laid down an inescapable net today.
Today, the city guards present were all elites among elites. Not only were their strengths formidable, but the power of their combined attacks were also extremely powerful.
Apart from this, he even brought a bunch of late-stage Celestial Deity Realm powerhouses, dispersed in all directions of the plaza.
The moment Ye Yuan appeared, this dense large web would directly pounce on Ye Yuan and kill him.
As for the three True God Realm powerhouses, they were also hidden in various areas of the plaza at this time.
Among these three True Gods, there were two First Firmament True God and one Second Firmament True God. It could be seen how highly he regarded Ye Yuan.
He had absolute confidence that as long as Ye Yuan dared to show face, he absolutely could not escape.
Suddenly, three figures barged into the execution ground.
When Yu Jinsong saw the arrivals, he could not help revealing a look of amusement. Getting up, he bowed and said, “Little Nephew Jinsong pays respect to Academy Head Fei!”
The person in front had a very powerful aura, he was actually a True God Realm powerhouse.
Bystanders did not know him, but Yu Jinsong naturally recognized him. He was called Fei Mingtian, one of Kongming Academy’s assistant academy heads.
Following behind Fei Mingtian were Flowing Wind Establishment’s establishment head Li Zian,
and assistant establishment head, Song Yancai.
Fei Mingtian nodded his head and said, “Not seeing for several years, Honorable Nephew Yu’s realm improved considerably again!”
Yu Jinsong smiled and said, “Academy Head Fei is too kind! Little Nephew is currently carrying out the City Lord Manor’s law, I wonder what Academy Head Fei came for?”
Fei Mingtian’s face fell. Yu Jinsong’s words concealed a needle in wool, blocking him dead with one sentence.
Since Yu Jinsong dared to frame Jiang Jadehall, he naturally would not give people a handle and had long created sufficient ironclad proof.
Otherwise, the Kongming Academy would not go so far as to not make any noise at all.
Fei Mingtian said coolly, “Honorable Nephew Yu, Jiang Jadehall is at any rate from the Kongming Academy. Can you give our academy face and spare his life?”
Yu Jinsong laughed when he heard that and said, “Academy Head Fei’s words aren’t right! Although Jiang Jadehall originated from the Kongming Academy, he works in the City Lord Manor now. For so many years, the City Lord Manor also spent large amounts of cultivation resources on him, but he didn’t think to repay it, and actually assassinated me! This kind of person, if he isn’t sentenced to death according to the law, what will my City Lord Manor use to manage the Nine Pledge Imperial Capital?”
Fei Mingtian’s brows furrowed slightly, Yu Jinsong’s words were flawless, he could not find any words to refute at all.
Although Flowing Wind Establishment was the place where Kongming Academy managed imperial cities, it was too inferior to show in public.
On the surface, all of the imperial cities were under the City Lord Manor’s name.
“In that case, there’s no leeway to maneuver? If I were to forcefully bring him away?”
The imposing momentum on Fei Mingtian’s body gradually grew. Horrifying world power crushed over toward Yu Jinsong. Clearly, he was already angered.
But Yu Jinsong was completely fine as he said with a faint smile, “Academy Head Fei’s emotion, this lowly nephew naturally understands. It’s just that the law is the law, nobody can violate it, right? If Academy Head Fei were to really take action, I’m afraid that Lord Father will be making a move. Academy Head Fei wouldn’t think that Lord Father knows absolutely nothing about today’s matter, right?”
