C20 Lord of the eight desolations

Ye Yang was already prepared to be severely injured together with the elder. He knew that he was definitely going to die. He had no confidence as to whether or not the golden hairpin in his hand could pierce through the elder’s eyeball and further into his brain.

Suddenly, he felt his body lightened and his arm tightened. He realized that he had been grabbed by a big hand, and his body immediately floated up into the air.

Everyone raised their heads and looked up into the sky. They saw a tall and sturdy man holding Ye Yang with one hand. A pair of meter-long pale white wings slowly swayed behind him.

"Oh my god, a Martial King!"

"How come even an expert at the Martial King level comes here?"

Everyone was incomparably shocked. Today's battle had already far surpassed their imagination. Warriors, masters, and generals appeared one after another. At this moment, they were so shocked that they were unable to breathe.

Now it became even more dramatic that a Martial King had actually appeared. That pair of wings formed by Genuine Qi was precisely the symbol of a Martial King and everyone recognized it.

Seeing that someone had saved Ye Yang, Ye Lingtian hurried forward to pay his respects and said, "Thank you Lord Mayor for saving my son."

"Hahaha, you are way too polite!" The man withdrew his wings and slowly landed on the ground. He let go of Ye Yang and patted his shoulder. "You are truly the tiger son of the Ye family! You are so heroic! Ye family will definitely flourish in the future."

He turned his head towards the gray-robed elder and coldly said, "A general tried to kill a teenager who is not even a martial cultivator. I really don't know what makes you so despicable."

The gray-robed elder said angrily, "Li Chengfeng, don't think that just because you have been a mayor for so many years in the Eight Desolations City that you can do whatever you want. Let me tell you this, I am following orders today. You’d better think through before you interfere.”

"How ridiculous!" Li Chengfeng said with disdain, "You, a stooge running errands for someone else, dare to threaten me? Don't you think that I don't know who is behind this. Even if your master comes here in person, he has to treat me with some respect. Who do you think you are?"

"You … You dare to say such rude words? You traitor! Aren't you afraid of a calamity approaching to you one day?" The gray-robed elder asked.

Li Chengfeng said indifferently, "I don't know if a great calamity is about to befall me, but I am sure that a great calamity is about to befall you. Coming to the Eight Desolations City and actually killing people in my jurisdiction, are you looking down on me? If I don't kill you, how do I manage the city?"

Li Chengfeng walked towards the gray-robed elder step by step. With every step he took, the aura on him grew stronger. When he arrived in front of the gray-robed elder, all those below the level of martial warriors found it hard to breathe.

The aura released unintentionally already made it tough for most of the people here to bear. Everyone looked at Li Chengfeng and their hearts were filled with reverence and respect. The strong ones were worthy of respect wherever they went. Well, of course, not for the gray-robed elder.

At this moment, the gray-robed elder facing Li Chengfeng was trying his best to harness all the energy in his entire body to resist Li Chengfeng's aura. It was as if his body was being suppressed by a mountain, and sweat was continuously dripping down.

Li Chengfeng slowly raised his hand and spoke to the gray-robed elder, "For your master's sake, I will not kill you today. However, I will remove your cultivation as a punishment."

The gray-robed elder's face revealed a terrified look. If his Genuine Qi was removed, he would become a piece of trash. Then, he would no longer have any value to his master and would be ruthlessly abandoned.

He had been running errands for him for many years and had provoked countless enemies. If he lost his backer, he would immediately be hunted to die.

He wanted to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but his entire body was suppressed by the aura of Li Chengfeng. If the Genuine Qi leaked out once he opened his mouth, he would immediately crush to death.

Just as Li Chengfeng was about to remove the gray-robed elder's cultivation, a voice suddenly spoke out. “Wait a minute, my lord.”

Everyone was startled, and saw that the one who stopped Li Chengfeng was actually Ye Yang.

Ye Lingtian frowned, and reprimanded Ye Yang: "Yang'er, you cannot disrespect the Lord Mayor!"

As a mayor of the Eight Desolations City, Li Chengfeng had an esteemed position. If Ye Yang interrupted, it might cause Li Chengfeng to feel disgusted. So he hurriedly reprimanded Ye Yang.

Ye Lingtian cupped his fists at Li Chengfeng and said, "My Lord, please forgive my son for his ignorant offence."

Li Chengfeng laughed, "Brother Ye, you don’t need to be so courteous. I think highly of your son, and want to hear what he has to say." With that, he turned and looked at Ye Yang.

Hearing Li Chengfeng's words, Ye Lingtian had nothing more to say. He signaled Ye Yang with his eyes, telling him to be careful not to say something wrong and offend the person in front of him.

Ye Yang smiled casually. "My Lord, I owe my life to you, and this person is technically my enemy. I hope that you can fulfill a little wish of mine."

"Hehe, feel free to speak. I will do my best to satisfy you. Don't call me ‘lord’ anymore, it makes me feel quite uncomfortable. Just call me Uncle Li from now on." Li Chengfeng said.

Hearing what Li Chengfeng said, everyone around was shocked, pleased, and somewhat envious of him. To be able to catch the Lord Mayor's attention was a tremendous blessing. Not to even mention other benefits, just being taken after by a Martial King was already something that one could use to do almost anything in the Eight Desolations City.

However, Ye Yang did not appear to be overly surprised, and only politely replied. "Then many thanks to Uncle Li for your kind favor. Now I hope that you can let him go today."

Hearing Ye Yang's words, everyone was stunned. Could Ye Yang be any more foolish? Now he had such a good chance to take revenge, but he plead for mercy for his enemy?

Li Chengfeng was also startled. He frowned and said: "This man is shameless and despicable. He wants to kill you time and time again, are you really going to let him go?"

Ye Yang nodded and said, "I will remember this grudge deeply in my heart. Today, I ask you to let him go so that I can personally take his despicable life in the future."

Hearing Ye Yang's words, Li Chengfeng laughed heartily and praised, "Alright, you truly are someone as I expected to be, so daring at such a young age. Alright, why not?"

After this, he withdrew his aura and the old man in gray fell limply to the ground. He had been struggling to hold on all this time and was about to die. If it was a little later, he probably wouldn't be able to breath anymore.

"Thank you, Uncle Li." Ye Yang bowed towards Li Chengfeng, then walked to the gray-robed elder and said. "I know you're only a stooge, so I won't waste any more of my energy with you. Go back and tell your master. Tell him that I, Ye Yang, will remember everything that happened today."

Ignoring the ugly expression of the gray-robed old man on the ground, he continued. "I, Ye Yang, am not a gentleman, and have never thought of becoming one. Anyone who wants my life, I will take their head off. Go back and tell your master to wash his neck and wait for me to cut it off. I won't let him wait for too long."

"That’s it?" The gray-robed elder said in a deep voice.

"That’s it." Ye Yang nodded.

"You didn't kill me just to let me send the message?" The gray-robed elder found it hard to believe.

"That's right. That’s all of your value - to send the message." Ye Yang said indifferently.

An insult, a blatant insult. The value of a general’s life was just a message carrier. There was nothing more humiliating than this.

"Are you not afraid of my revenge?" The gray-robed elder said in a gloomy voice.

"Revenge? No! I won't give you any chance to take revenge. You all also do not have time to take revenge. Because in the future, you all will become busy trying to protect yourself, from me. Furthermore, you all will not be able to eat and sleep well, and today's situation will never ever happen again." Ye Yang said as he coldly looked at the gray-robed elder.

"Alright, I've said everything I need to say. You can scram now." Ye Yang waved his hand, as if he was driving away a disgusting beast.

The gray-robed elder clenched his teeth, stood up, and carefully looked at Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng coldly snorted. “We in the Eight Desolations City are righteous and honorable, unlike you who bully the weak and fear the strong. Since we said that we will spare your despicable life, you can scram with no worries."

Although Li Chengfeng said with contempt, the gray-robed elder still felt relieved. After all, being able to live was a good thing. If his cultivation was removed, he was only left for death.

He cupped his fists at Li Chengfeng, turned around and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Li Chengfeng glanced at Zhao Yongsheng who was hiding behind the crowd and said, "Why is the Family Head of Zhao’s so free to come visit the Ye Family today?"

Zhao Yongsheng broke out in a cold sweat, hurried over to Li Chengfeng and said, "Haha, it was actually all a mistake. I was too foolish and deceived by the Great Elder.”

When the Great Elder heard this, he immediately became irritated. "Zhao Yongsheng, you were the one who seduced me and promised me all sorts of benefits. How can you not admit it?"

Zhao Yongsheng acted as if he did not know the Great Elder, and said indifferently: "The Great Elder, it is quite irresponsible to say whatever you want. Don’t randomly accuse someone if you don’t have any evidence."

"You bastard!" The Great Elder was furious. However, what they did were all shady business and secretive conspiracy. How could there be any evidence?

Zhao Yongsheng hurriedly said to Ye Lingtian. "I do apologize for disturbing you today. I will definitely deliver a generous gift some other day to you as an apology. I will take my leave first."

Under the disdainful gaze from the Ye Family members, Zhao Yongsheng left shamelessly.

Seeing that Zhao Yongsheng had left and the place was in a mess, Li Chengfeng said to Ye Lingtian, "Your family still has many matters to take care of today, I shall not stay for long. If you have time someday, do visit me at my palace with your son."

Since it was indeed not suitable to keep a guest at the moment, Ye Lingtian apologized and personally sent Li Chengfeng out of the main entrance, promising to pay a visit to him later on. Li Chengfeng agreed joyfully and left.

When Ye Lingtian returned to the arena, the Great Elder already knew that there was nothing he could do to reverse the situation. He did not resist and just waited to be captured.

Ye Lingtian announced that he would imprison all the traitors today and deal with them tomorrow.

Ye Yang was also injured, and was escorted by dozens of people back to his room. When he returned to his room, they gave him the best spirit medicine of the family.

Before leaving the room, Ye Lingtian checked through his son’s entire body to see if there were any major injuries. He was secretly shocked by the fact that there were only some small wounds and bruises on Ye Yang’s body. Even in the end, when Ye Yang countered the gray-robed elder's attack head on, there were only slight injures in his internal organs.

He never thought that Ye Yang's body would actually be so strong. He was astonished, but also pleased.

When everyone had left, Ye Yang felt that there was something abnormal in his body. He immediately activated the Genuine Qi to check his body. He was immediately shocked.
