Chapter 61

The one leading the group was precisely the tall and thin elder of the Zhang family. From a distance, Ye Xiwén clearly saw a smug smile on his face, but after seeing the scene inside the Blood Essence Realm, his expression immediately turned dark.

"How could this be? Where are the people of our Zhang family!" the tall and thin elder exclaimed as he flew down.

At this moment, he saw the disciples of the One Yuan Sect standing there, and he immediately understood what had happened. He roared in a fit of rage, "You little bastards, you actually killed all the people of our Zhang family!"

The terrifying aura of the tall and thin elder instantly spread out, enveloping the entire sky and firmly locking onto the disciples of the One Yuan Sect below.

"Good, good, good, you disciples of the One Yuan Sect are truly mad!" the short elder behind the tall and thin elder also flew into a rage, shouting.

"I will make all of you die, to accompany them in death!" the tall and thin elder roared.

"Damn it, you two old scoundrels, how dare you lay a hand on our disciples of the One Yuan Sect!" Another hoarse and angry voice followed, belonging to the fat elder of the two elders, who charged down with a murderous look on his face.

"What do you two old scoundrels want to do to our disciples of the One Yuan Sect?" the thin elder also rushed down and asked.

"They killed the people of our Zhang family, I want to kill them to avenge our disciples!" the tall and thin elder said with hatred.

"Get lost!" the thin elder cursed, "Zhang Quan, Zhang Ping, you two bastards, dare to touch our disciples of the One Yuan Sect!"

Zhang Quan roared, "I don't care, I want them dead!"

"Get lost!" the fat elder growled, coming to the side of Ye Feng, Ye Xiwén, and the others, and asked, "What exactly happened?"

The fat elder hadn't expected things to end up like this. Although casualties were inevitable in the core competition, the complete annihilation of the Zhang family's people was a shock to him. Overall, the disciples of the Zhang family and the One Yuan Sect of this generation were about equal in strength, and it was almost impossible for one side to completely wipe out the other.

"It's all because of those bastards of the Zhang family..."

The disciples of the One Yuan Sect started talking all at once, and the fat elder's face immediately turned ashen. The other three elders also heard and their expressions became strange.

"Did you hear that? This is your Zhang family's fault, meticulously planning to bring in a先天 (Xiantian) expert. What were you trying to do?" the thin elder scolded. "Daring to privately bring in a Xiantian expert and attempt to ambush our disciples of the One Yuan Sect to steal the Blood Essence Fruit, truly unforgivable, they died for nothing!"

At this point, the thin elder was still shaken. If they had succeeded, the ones raging here would not be Zhang Quan and Zhang Ping, but them.

"You will regret this!" Zhang Quan gritted his teeth, "You will all pay the price!"

"Hmph, regret? This time, the ones who should regret are you. This matter isn't over, we will still come to your Zhang family to settle this score!" the fat elder said with a cold smile.

Zhang Quan and Zhang Ping felt a deep sense of frustration. They had suffered heavy losses, and the ones who were completely wiped out were them!

"This is all your one-sided account. If a Xiantian expert really did sneak in, it should be you who are all dead!" Zhang Ping argued, "Let me try it!"

As he spoke, Zhang Ping instantly spread out his hand, and the surrounding spiritual energy rapidly gathered, forming a huge palm that instantly struck down at Ye Xiwén.

Zhang Ping's eyes flashed with a fierce light, full of killing intent, clearly intending to crush Ye Xiwén here.

"You dare!" the fat and thin elders immediately roared.

The huge hand had already struck down, and Ye Xiwén roared, "Slash through!"

A long sword instantly unsheathed from behind Ye Xiwén, and a brilliant sword light instantly covered half the sky, transforming into a blade of light that slashed toward Zhang Ping.

"Boom!" The blade of light and the spiritual energy hand collided fiercely in mid-air, both turning into a shower of stars.

Zhang Ping immediately let out a惨叫 (crying out in pain), gripping his hand, a huge bloodstain tearing open on it, blood gushing out like a fountain.

In the previous exchange, he had been momentarily careless and was injured by the blade's aura. His eyes, filled with malice, stared intently at Ye Xiwén, full of disbelief. How could this be? He could clearly feel that Ye Xiwén was only a Houtian realm martial artist, yet his attack could injure him, a Xiantian level expert. The blade's aura clearly contained Xiantian true qi. How could Houtian true qi injure him, a Xiantian expert?

But he was clearly only a Houtian level martial artist.

Seeing that Ye Xiwén was not only unharmed but had taken advantage of Zhang Ping's carelessness, the thin elder burst out laughing, "Zhang Ping, you old scoundrel, actually attacking our junior disciples of the One Yuan Sect, how shameless!"

Zhang Ping glared at Ye Xiwén with hatred, knowing he couldn't make another move. The fat and thin elders were already on guard, and if he made another move, he would face their fierce attack. Although their strength was about equal, there was still Ye Xiwén, whose depth was unclear, and he might suffer a loss.

After this incident, the four elders no longer doubted that Ye Xiwén could kill a Xiantian expert. They had originally thought it impossible, how could a Xiantian level expert die at the hands of Ye Xiwén? But Ye Xiwén could make them suffer even when Zhang Ping was caught off guard, let alone a Xiantian expert who had just entered the realm.

At this moment, Zhang Quan spoke, gritting his teeth, "Since the one who killed Liu Zhi is this Ye Xiwén, we won't say anything else. Just hand over Ye Xiwén, and we won't pursue the others. What do you say?"

"Get lost!" the fat elder sneered, "This time, you violated the rules first, and they died for nothing. You want us to hand over the disciples of the One Yuan Sect? Dream on. After we get out, we will still come to your Zhang family to settle this score!"

"This time, you must hand over Ye Xiwén. Otherwise, it won't just be our Zhang family who will hold you accountable. Liu Zhi is a disciple of a major elder of our Tianfeng Hall!" Zhang Quan said with a sinister tone.

"Didn't you hear me? Since they entered the Blood Essence Realm, they died for nothing. Daring to plot to steal the Blood Essence Fruit, they are truly asking for death!" the fat elder said.

At this moment, the void of the Blood Essence Realm rippled again.
