Chapter 50

Yechong's indifferent gaze swept over Meng Xu's corpse, then fell upon Ning Yu, who had just stood up with a somewhat unpleasant expression. His indifferent voice echoed in the area: "If you want to test me next time, it's best to do it personally."

"Heh, Young Master Ye is being too serious," Ning Yu paused for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, "Those underlings below, not recognizing the mountain, deserve their fate. Since the item is already in Young Master Ye's hands, it naturally belongs to you."

As he finished speaking, Ning Yu waved his hand, and immediately the powerful figures who were spitting blood from the corners of their mouths all clutched their chests and retreated. Meng Xu's corpse was naturally taken away by someone. However, even so, a faint bloody smell still spread in the area.

Yechong's cold gaze lingered on Ning Yu for a moment, then he sneered and said nothing more. After scanning the area with his gaze, he said indifferently, "Since no one has any objections, then I'll take this spot."

As he finished speaking, Yechong tossed the先天令 (Xiantian Ling) in his hand and walked towards one of the steps. This time, many powerful figures' eyes flickered with both fear and greed, but in the end, almost everyone suppressed the greed in their hearts.

And the three women, Xiang Qiyu, watched this scene and simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. With no one blocking him, as long as Yechong stepped onto the Nine Heavens Staircase, even if those people regretted it, they would have no way to deal with him.

"Yechong, do you really think you can easily climb the Nine Heavens Staircase? Our Ye family has no intention of standing behind you! As a solitary figure, what qualifications do you have to obtain a spot!?" Just as Yechong took a few steps, a cold and mocking voice echoed, causing many people to instantly twitch their eyes. Finally, it happened.

Yechong's eyes instantly turned extremely cold, and the originally indifferent expression on his face now had a hint of unhidden killing intent. Then, Yechong slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on the area where the Ye family and Su family's powerful figures were.

At this moment, Ye Yi Yin slowly walked out with a cold smile, and many of the Ye family's powerful figures had flickering eyes. The Su family's powerful figures were also restless. Clearly, these powerful figures from the Ye and Su families understood that no matter why Yechong suddenly became so strong, the conflict between them and Yechong seemed irreconcilable. Yechong had no intention of reconciling with them. Since that was the case, they absolutely could not let Yechong climb the Nine Heavens Staircase. Otherwise, if he obtained the inheritance of the Xiantian Holy Temple, he would be even harder to deal with.

"Is the Ye family going to take action against Yechong?" Many people in the area had a strange look in their eyes as they watched this scene, and their eyes were filled with contradiction when they looked at Yechong. What irreconcilable conflict could make Yechong and the Ye family reach such a point?

"Phew—"

Yechong slowly exhaled, his expression returning to its usual calm, but his gaze on Ye Yi Yin and the others became even colder.

"Ye Yi Yin, do you think that just because I share the same surname as you, I won't kill you?" Yechong said indifferently, "I said before, the people I like to step on the most are those with the surname Ye!"

"Yechong, do you really think that gaining a slight advantage in the grand hall makes you very powerful? If you know what's good for you, hand over the Xiantian Ling now. Considering we are both from the Ye family, I'll leave you a complete corpse," Ye Yi Yin looked at Yechong, a mocking expression on his face, and his voice echoed in the sky.

"Take action."

Yechong's face showed a mocking expression. He was no longer bothered to talk nonsense with these people and spoke indifferently, clearly preparing to resolve the matter with a decisive move.

"Since you don't know your place and don't understand what the name Ye represents, I'll make you understand today!"

Hearing this, the killing intent in Ye Yi Yin's eyes was no longer hidden. In the stone hall that day, he wanted to decisively kill Yechong, but to save some strength for the competition for a Xiantian Ling, he had to hold back. But now, he didn't want to give Yechong a chance. No matter why Yechong could rise, such a person absolutely could not be allowed to live. Otherwise, his existence would be a huge trouble! The Ye family only needed Ye Yi Hao and Ye Yi Yin, and didn't need another Yechong!

"Senior Brother Yechong!"

Qu Xuan looked at this scene, her eyes filled with worry. Clearly, she didn't expect that climbing the Nine Heavens Staircase would cause so many troubles.

"We can't help him. What happens now is up to him. But those Ye family bastards weren't his match before, and they probably won't be now. Don't worry too much," Xiang Qiyu said hesitantly. However, when she said this, it was clear that she didn't really believe it herself. After all, to dare to take action after seeing Yechong's decisive move, Ye Yi Yin must have some skills.

However, even with their anxiety, the three women were powerless to do anything. In the face of true strength, any schemes were meaningless.

"Heh, this is really interesting." Su Xuan stared at Yechong but had no intention of taking action.

Only Ye Yi Hao frowned slightly at this moment, but in the end, he said nothing.

"Everyone, follow my command. Act together to capture this traitor of the Ye family." Ye Yi Yin looked at Yechong and sneered, instantly labeling Yechong as a traitor.

"Yes!"

Seeing that Ye Yi Yin was finally going to take action, the Ye family's powerful figures, who had been routed by Yechong, now all stepped out with gritted teeth. However, even so, their appearance still looked somewhat comical.

But even a group of defeated soldiers, these Ye family's powerful figures still had a formidable aura, clearly indicating that this time they were prepared to leave Yechong without any reservations.

Seeing this scene, the powerful figures from other forces all had flickering eyes and strange expressions. The conflict between Yechong and the Ye family was indeed quite dramatic.

"Traitor of the Ye family?" Yechong sneered, his face indifferent, "What a great charge you've given me!"

As he finished speaking, Yechong took a step, quickly activating the Six Paths Burial Sword Technique within his body. This time, all the spiritual energy hidden in his bones and skin began to circulate rapidly, making Yechong's blood boil and his aura become extremely formidable.

"What is that? Yechong's aura is so powerful! He's just a Fourth Stage Body Tempering expert, how can he be so strong!?" Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Yechong, a gasp of shock echoed in the area. Many people's eyes were filled with shock, and they squinted to focus on the figure in the center, their eyes full of amazement.

This scene made Mo Fanlong, who had been smirking, stiffen, and even the seemingly indifferent Kōngxū Gongzi's eyes twitched. Clearly, from Yechong's current aura, they sensed something.

"This is—"

Feeling Yechong's extremely terrifying aura, Ye Yi Yin's eyes twitched. Even with his strength, he could sense an indescribable danger from Yechong, which made him feel uneasy.

"Boom—"

The spiritual energy circulated nine times within Yechong's body, making him feel an urge to let out a long roar. In the next moment, Yechong stomped his foot, and his figure shot out instantly. On his fist, four Asura Sword Seals quickly overlapped and were unleashed.

"Stop him!"

Feeling the terrifying power from Yechong, Ye Yi Yin was instantly drenched in cold sweat. He could sense that the energy fluctuations from Yechong were absolutely not something he could resist!

Hearing Ye Yi Yin's fierce command, the Ye family's powerful figures, though their faces were grim, instantly rushed out. If they failed again, the Ye family's face would be completely lost.

"Slap, slap, slap—"

Facing these rushing Ye family's powerful figures, Yechong showed no mercy. This time, his fists and palms unleashed a devastating force, making these Ye family's powerful figures fly out like dead dogs, spewing blood as they landed. These so-called Ye family's powerful figures, though numerous, were completely unable to stop Yechong. At this moment, Yechong was almost invincible!

The gazes of the surrounding people were all filled with shock! The world actually had such a person, who could use the weak to defeat the strong, and face a hundred with one! With one move, countless powerful figures were forced to retreat!

This was an invincible momentum! This was the posture of a young genius rising!

"Boom—"

Under the gaze of many people, in the next moment, Yechong directly tore through the encirclement formed by the numerous figures and almost instantly appeared in front of Ye Yi Yin, whose face was grim.

"What!?"

Seeing Yechong break through the encirclement of the Ye family's powerful figures in an instant, Ye Yi Yin's eyes were filled with shock! How could Yechong's abilities be even more terrifying than before!

However, Ye Yi Yin was no ordinary person. At this moment, he slapped his right hand, and several illusory vines wrapped around his palm, forming a huge wooden hand that swept out wildly...
