892: Chapter 888: To Battle!
Effortlessly manipulating Inner Strength to trap opponents from a distance, Sima Yun’s techniques left everyone in awe!
The Tornado Whip, as if a real soft whip, tightly restrained the Ye Clan’s Four Elders, leaving them without the strength to struggle…
The other martial artists could only stand by and watch!
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to save the Ye Clan’s Four Elders, but Sima Yun’s strength was overwhelmingly superior.
More importantly, because they used the Wind Flow Strength cultivation technique themselves, if they acted recklessly, not only would they fail to help, but their own power would also be absorbed by Sima Yun.
For these reasons, even the reckless Ding Clan’s Three Brothers couldn’t dare to help the Ye Clan’s Four Elders!
“Bast…
bastard…”
“Damn you, Sima Yun!
If you have the guts, kill us outright instead of torturing us four!”
“Even if you’re fearsomely skilled, with no virtue, you’ll be despised by the world!”
“No one in this world will truly respect you.
Martial artists like you deserve to be exterminated by everyone!”
The Ye Clan’s Four Elders cursed vehemently, but Sima Yun paid no attention to their words.
“You four old fools, you’re almost dead and still mouthing off!
I’m tired of wasting words on you.
Die now!
After killing you, the Inner Strength of the remaining Heavenly Sect disciples will be mine to claim!”
Sima Yun said coldly, his words devoid of any hint of mercy.
Saying this, Sima Yun clenched his right fist!
When Sima Yun controlled the Tornado Whip and clenched his fist, the whip would tighten and then tear the bodies of the Ye Clan’s Four Elders into two halves!
“Let the blood of you four old fools blossom beautifully on the ground!”
Sima Yun roared, his right fist tightening.
With this action, the death of the Ye Clan’s Four Elders seemed inevitable!
But things did not progress as Sima Yun had expected.
Just as he thought the Ye Clan’s Four Elders would meet their doom, a figure suddenly launched forward.
The speed of this shadow was astonishing.
With a flick of the hand, Sima Yun’s condensed Tornado Whip dissolved into nothingness, while the Ye Clan’s Four Elders were immediately rescued!
“How is this possible?!”
Sima Yun exclaimed in shock, then turned to see who had saved the Ye Clan’s Four Elders—it was none other than Ye Tian, who had once destroyed the Sima Family’s ancestral home!
“Ye Tian!
You dared to make a move!”
Sima Yun gritted his teeth furiously, his eyes blazing as he stared at Ye Tian.
Not only had Ye Tian destroyed the Sima Family’s ancestral home, but he had also killed Sima Yun’s younger brother, Sima Feng, and indirectly caused the death of his son, Sima Kuan!
To Sima Yun, Ye Tian was an enemy of the highest degree who could not coexist with him!
This was why Sima Yun had publicly issued the Slaughter Order—to reclaim his honor and kill Ye Tian…
However, after entering Lang Huan Cave, Sima Yun realized there was something more important than killing Ye Tian: absorbing the Wind Flow Strength of the Heavenly Sect disciples to become invincible!
Sima Yun had already done so, absorbing the sect leader Wu Wei Zi’s strength completely.
As for Ye Tian, who had suffered grievous injuries, he chose to ignore him.
After all, Ye Tian was already injured.
Once Sima Yun had absorbed the Inner Strength of the Heavenly Sect disciples, what threat could a mere Ye Tian pose?
Thus, Sima Yun focused his attention on both the Inner Sect disciples and the Outer Sect disciples of the Heavenly Sect, temporarily leaving Ye Tian aside…
Yet what Sima Yun hadn’t anticipated was that Ye Tian’s injuries would recover so rapidly.
In just a couple of dozen minutes, Ye Tian had regained enough strength to confront him!
“Our leader has finally made his move!
We’re saved!”
“Exactly!
The leader is here, and he’ll surely resolve this with ease!”
“At last, Sima Yun’s reign of terror is coming to an end!”
The Ding Clan’s Three Brothers cheered excitedly upon seeing Ye Tian take action, knowing full well he was a martial artist who achieved stunning feats whenever he made a move!
Thus, once Ye Tian stepped forward, regardless of how powerful the foe was, he would undoubtedly be victorious!
Meanwhile, the Ye Clan’s Four Elders, who had been rescued by Ye Tian, staggered over to his side.
Having exerted themselves to their limits using the Four Symbols Formation and suffered severe setbacks against Sima Yun, the Four Elders now spoke weakly…
“Ye Tian, if not for you, the next generation of the Ye Clan would have to take over as head of the family!”
“Indeed, but Ye Tian, this guy is far more formidable than we anticipated.
You must be careful!”
“Don’t underestimate him!
Judging him by Sima Feng’s level would be a grave mistake!”
“Even Wu Wei Zi, who went toe-to-toe with you and ended in mutual injury, isn’t as formidable as Sima Yun is now!”
The Ye Clan’s Four Elders expressed their gratitude while cautiously warning Ye Tian, for Sima Yun’s strength had long surpassed reckoning!
Though the Four Elders understood that their role was merely to buy Ye Tian time, they found that even the Four Symbols Formation was no match for Sima Yun!
As this battle’s proving ground, the Ye Clan’s Four Elders made sure to inform Ye Tian of Sima Yun’s might, urging him to proceed carefully…
“Don’t worry, elders.
I’ll handle him with caution!
Please hold the line so I can focus on battling Sima Yun!”
Ye Tian nodded and spoke, then began walking step by step towards Sima Yun.
Facing Sima Yun, Ye Tian exuded an aura entirely different from everyone else!
Earlier, whether they were Inner Sect disciples or Outer Sect disciples of the Heavenly Sect, or even the Ye Clan’s Four Elders, all seemed uneasy and less confident when confronting Sima Yun.
But Ye Tian’s expression was distinct.
His face showed an extraordinary confidence—not the kind faked, but a genuine confidence born of immense power within, enabling Ye Tian to face any adversary fearlessly.
All the martial artists retreated to a safe distance.
The battle between Ye Tian and Sima Yun was beyond anyone’s interference, so they could only watch from afar…
“Who’s stronger, Ye Tian or Sima Yun?
This is truly hard to say!”
“Sima Yun has absorbed the sect leader’s strength, and his skill likely approaches perfection.
Ye Tian, meanwhile, was injured in his recent fight with the sect leader.
Though he’s recovered considerably, he might still face limitations against Sima Yun!”
“However, Ye Tian’s strength surged dramatically after taking the Carefree Pill—far surpassing his prior state when he fought to a draw with the sect leader.
Moreover, Ye Tian’s reflexes in battle are unparalleled!”
“Given the current circumstances, it’s impossible to predict the outcome with certainty.
Let’s quietly observe and see how it unfolds!”
…
Discussions erupted among the Heavenly Sect’s Inner Sect disciples, all eagerly speculating on the outcome of the fight between Ye Tian and Sima Yun.
Given Ye Tian’s extraordinary strength, when Sima Yun became entangled with him, the others had a chance to escape.
Yet none fled.
Everyone was too invested in the unfolding battle between Ye Tian and Sima Yun, knowing it was a spectacle not to be missed.
“Ye Tian, you must not lose!
If you fail, those of us who practice the Wind Flow Strength cultivation technique will surely fall prey to Sima Yun!”
“Indeed!
May the heavens bless Ye Tian to defeat Sima Yun and save us all!”
“Our lives are all tied to Ye Tian’s hands.
Ye Tian isn’t just our hope, he’s the beacon for the entire Martial Arts World!”
…
The Heavenly Sect’s Outer Sect disciples began praying for Ye Tian, though their prayers were unheard by him.
“Leader!
You can do it!”
“Leader, remember: no matter the outcome, we are always silently supporting you!”
“Kid, this is up to you now!
Don’t let us down!”
“The futures of the Heavenly Sect, Ye Clan, and Night King Hall all rest on this battle!”
…
The Ding Clan’s Three Brothers and Ye Clan’s Four Elders could only cheer for Ye Tian from behind, unable to offer any help.
After all, Ye Tian and Sima Yun were on a level far beyond everyone present.
Any interference in their duel would be futile.
Sima Yun stared directly at Ye Tian, his gaze ice-cold!
“Ye Tian, there are many debts between us that need settling!
Originally, I intended to absorb the strength of those ants first and deal with you later.
But since you can’t wait, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Sima Yun said coldly.
Ye Tian’s face broke into a knowing smile.
“It seems there are indeed many debts to settle!
And these debts can only be resolved through one of us dying.
So let’s not waste words about gain or loss—what we’re fighting for today is not victory, but life and death!”
“A splendid notion—forget victory, just contend for survival!”
Sima Yun also smiled, surprisingly agreeing with Ye Tian’s sentiment!
“In that case, let’s settle the debt of destroying the Sima Family’s grand plan of a millennium, the debt of burning down the ancestral home, the debt of killing my brother Sima Feng, and the debt of causing my son Sima Kuan’s untimely death!”
Sima Yun roared, while Ye Tian responded with a bold declaration: “Agreed!
For slaughtering the people of Jiang City, killing the innocent, abusing your power, and enslaving Night King Hall’s martial artists—all these debts will be cleared today!”
With wild laughter, both Sima Yun and Ye Tian took a step forward, their hands and feet instantly clashing together…
