Chapter 218: Chapter 189: Seeking Death!_2
Outside the arena, Yun Luo of the Cloud Sky Sect, Fairy Nishang of the Moon Concealing Sect, as well as Liu Yan and others from the Flame Sect also looked at Ye Chen with surprise.
They knew that for so many people to stand up in support, the young man before them must possess exceptional abilities.
"Hmph."
Watching a large crowd support Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, the three from the Flame Sect snorted coldly and flipped their sleeves, preparing to find someone else to make a move. Clearly, they realized that in this situation, it wasn't a good idea to act against Jiang Yao.
But did they really think they could just leave?
"Stop right there!"
Just as the three harbored thoughts of retreat, Ye Chen let go of Jiang Yao's hand and slowly walked up to them.
"I just heard from a friend of the Moon Concealing Sect that the three of you, back on the Eighth Sea Island, had once ambushed Jiang Yao?" Ye Chen asked the three with supreme calmness.
Ye Chen's indifferent words fell into their ears and caused a jolt in the hearts of the trio.
What?
They had already conceded, did the young man still intend to forcefully take Jiang Yao's side?
They might be Half-Step Rotating Pill experts from the Flame Sect, and while they conceded, they couldn't believe this young man would dare to trouble them if they chose not to seek trouble first.
"So what if we ambushed her?" one of the three Half-Step Rotating Pill experts from the Flame Sect retorted with a stiff neck, "When the treasure Black Bead appeared, the strong have the right to seize it. This rule was already set when we entered the ancient tomb!"
Before the man could finish, Ye Chen's expression turned sharply, "Shut up!"
The Black Bead treasure!
These three actually attempted to murder Jiang Yao for the Black Bead treasure!

Ye Chen had long known that the Black Bead treasure would provoke killing, but he hadn't expected that some would target Jiang Yao, intent on killing her to grab the wooden token on her for the Black Bead treasure!
They were courting death!
Ye Chen knew Jiang Yao had many tricks up her sleeve, but if she were really ambushed by these three Half-Step Rotating Pill experts, she would still likely sustain injuries in a fight. Had it been that Jiang Yao had no abilities, she might have very well died at their hands.
These three, harboring murderous intent, truly deserved death!
"Thank you to the friends from the Moon Concealing Sect." Ye Chen turned his head to thank the three women who had helped Jiang Yao.
Then, he turned his attention directly to the three from the Flame Sect.
"Power gives you the right to kill others?"
"Very well, since that's what you believe, then today, I shall deal with you in the same way. The three of you, leave your lives here to avoid causing further harm!"
Ye Chen spoke out lightly.
Against those ruthless enough to murder and rob, Ye Chen never showed mercy.
Hum!
Ye Chen's words directly caused many people present to change their expressions drastically.
What? Was this young man planning to kill these three Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators?
Had he gone mad?
They had seen that Ye Chen exuded the aura of the early stage of Spirit Sea, and even if this young man was formidable, he surely couldn't kill three Half-Step Rotating Pill experts!
"Ye Chen." Jiang Yao walked up to Ye Chen and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
If Ye Chen was going to act against these three Half-Step Rotating Pill experts, Jiang Yao certainly wouldn't stand aside.
"Friend Ye Chen, do you require our assistance?"
The three women from the Moon Concealing Sect also came forward, as disciples of a fifth-grade Great Sect, they were not afraid of the Flame Sect, another fifth-grade Great Sect.
In the end, those from the Fourth Sea Island who had previously stepped forward all came out as well.
However, these people remained silent, for they knew of Ye Chen's prowess. To say nothing of these three Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators, it was likely that no one present could match Ye Chen!
They stepped forward merely to express their support for Ye Chen.
Ye Chen patted Jiang Yao's small head, then smiled as he turned to those who had joined his side and shook his head, "Killing these three is a trivial matter; there's no need for you all to make a move."
Boom!
As he spoke, Ye Chen stepped forward into the void. Once he released his vast True Qi, his powerful and mysterious silver Gang Yuan True Qi shot straight up hundreds of meters!
The release of Ye Chen's True Qi caused a change in everyone's expression.
Even the strongest among them, including Fairy Nishang and Liu Yan, showed a hint of surprise.
They found that the Ye Chen who had released his True Qi was not merely an early-stage Linghai disciple anymore. His terrifying True Qi even surpassed that of the Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators!
As for the trio from the Flame Sect who were directly fixed under Ye Chen's gaze, their faces turned ashen when they saw such potent and extraordinary True Qi around him.
Previously, they hadn't believed that Ye Chen could kill them, but now, it appeared that this young man indeed had the strength to do so!
From the moment Ye Chen released his True Qi to the sudden shift in the crowd's expressions, it all happened in an instant. The next moment, Ye Chen made his move.
The individuals who had harbored killing intent towards Jiang Yao, Ye Chen would naturally not let them go!
Boom!
While everyone was still reeling from the instant revelation of Ye Chen's strength, in the very next moment, they saw him abruptly appear before the three, smacking them with a fierce palm in the void. With no strength to resist, the trio was instantly sent hurtling backward by Ye Chen's palm, crashing heavily against the barrier surrounding the giant lotus leaf!
Spurt! Spurt! Spurt!
Three Half-Step Rotating Pill experts, defeated by Ye Chen with a single move, coughing up blood!
Amongst all the Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators present, these three were considered strong, but they were no match for a single strike from Ye Chen and were all injured at the same time?!
This was truly shocking to everyone present!
And at that moment, Ye Chen, having struck once, moved again. He formed a hand seal and seemingly reached through the void, dragging the three Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators towards him in midair.
The three grabbed by Ye Chen cried out in terror as they were pulled towards him, "Junior Brother Liu Yan, save us!"
They could feel the deep killing intent from Ye Chen. It was precisely this deep killing intent that spared their lives from Ye Chen's strike, as he wanted them to taste the fear of death!
They had indeed felt that terror of death!
In complete panic and fearing for their lives, the trio could only call for help from their sect's prodigy, Liu Yan, hoping he would take action and save them.
Boom!
As Ye Chen held the three in midair and while they cried for help, with a loud "boom," Liu Yan from the Flame Sect immediately flew up into the sky, "Ye Chen, my fellow daoist, these three from my sect have been reckless, but their mistakes are not deserving of death. Please spare them this once; I will ensure they are punished and make amends to Daoist Ye Chen."
Before leaving the Flame Sect, Daoist Chi Mei, a late-stage Rotating Pill expert of the sect, had instructed them to look out for each other in the ancient tomb and compete for treasures.
Liu Yan, as the leader of the Flame Sect, would naturally not sit idly by as Ye Chen killed these three Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators.
Reckless?!
Attempting to kill Jiang Yao is merely reckless?
What a convenient excuse!
Ye Chen glanced at the suddenly emerging Liu Yan and shouted, "Scram!"
With a sweep of his hand, a torrential force directly rolled towards Liu Yan, while with his other hand, he grabbed the three Half-Step Rotating Pill cultivators from the Flame Sect right out of the air.
No one could stop the people he intended to kill!
