Battle Saint King!
The invincible Chaos young generation's supreme, it was actually him!
The Nine-headed Great Serpent servant subdued from the Dan Emperor Clan's Danxu Ancient Realm was enough to prove his identity.
No matter how arrogant or foolish the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride were, they now knew they had provoked this most terrifying figure—it was purely seeking death.
Moreover, they clearly understood who this Battle Saint King was: the Dan Emperor Clan's First Guest Elder, the peerless figure who had prevented the descent of the five alien Emperors, the husband of several hall masters of the Moon Palace, also a Chaos young generation's supreme, the one who had slain the Overlord Taiyi's divine avatar... Layer upon layer of identities piled up, making his fame not only shake the Ultimate Ancient Path but also the entire vast ancient universe, with countless beings hearing of his might.
Such a terrifyingly formidable Battle Saint King was a supreme Overlord that almost all of the younger generation wished not to encounter; even many older generation experts felt the same, all because this Battle Saint King was simply too monstrous, unmatched.
They just never expected, no matter how they thought about it, to actually encounter the Battle Saint King here, and even more foolishly provoke him, even attempting to use their Imperial Clan status to intimidate him.
Such actions, what were they if not seeking death?
"Battle Saint King... it was actually this Overlord who came!?"
Even the three Ancient Path Heaven's Pride felt a strange sense of unreality. Naturally, they also hadn't expected this seemingly ordinary young Heaven's Pride to be the legendary Battle Saint King, and to encounter him in such a setting.
After all, such a legendary figure was a future Ancient Path Overlord, basically no longer a matter of chance, and required small figures like them to gaze up at his lofty, unattainable back.
Then, they looked at the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride with schadenfreude.
Originally, the Battle Saint King was about to leave, with no intention of intervening in this conflict. Yet, these Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride had the misfortune to provoke this peerless monster.
Now it was good—they had run into the hardest nut to crack. The other party hadn't even made a move himself; just sending out a subdued servant easily defeated the five of them, and now their chances of survival were slim.
It truly fit the saying—
No zuo, no die!
"Battle Saint King, please spare us! We won't dare again!"
At this point, where would the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride dare to threaten with their Imperial Clan status? They hurriedly begged for mercy, disregarding their majesty, only hoping not to be killed.
Whatever Imperial Clan majesty was now less important than preserving their lives.
"Battle Saint King, as long as you are willing to spare us, we are willing to offer up the most precious things on our persons, only begging you to let us live," one Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride spoke. His name was Wanyan Changtian, an exceptionally handsome and outstandingly beautiful man. Usually, his divine body flowed with brilliant radiant splendor, like a son of heaven, possessing a special divinity, a figure who drew attention wherever he went.
Yet now, half his body was bitten in the serpent's mouth, skin torn and flesh rent, intestines spilling out, covered in blood, unable to move, and exceptionally wretched. But he could care less about all that now, only wanting to beg for mercy, to survive.
On another serpent head, there was also a beautiful Imperial Clan maiden. Though not as eternally peerless as goddesses like Yi Wu, being born from an Imperial Clan's emperor bloodline and possessing extraordinary cultivation, her appearance was naturally exceptionally beautiful and captivating.
Usually very arrogant and outstanding, with many vying to surround her, she too could not maintain that lofty, proud posture now. At this moment, she was weeping pearly tears, carrying a kind of delicate, pitiable softness as she pleaded: "Saint King, please show mercy. If the great one is willing to spare me, Chenxue is willing to do anything."
These words caused many to stare dumbfounded, especially on the inland sea. It wasn't just these people; there were also many mortals and Cultivators present, watching from afar.
They all knew this woman's identity: Wanyan Chenxue, a peerless beauty among the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan, one of the few young women with stunning cultivation talent among the younger generation, reaching a height difficult to look up to at a young age.
Moreover, her status was noble, being the direct descendant of an important figure of the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan's main line. Usually showered with countless favors and pursued by who knows how many young talents.
Not just on this Birth Emperor Star, but even in other parts of the universe, she had many suitors. Among them were even some Great Power sect founders who dominated a region of the starry sky, and other Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride talents had also expressed admiration. She was a rather haughty maiden.
Who would have thought she would beg for mercy like this now, willing to make any promise.
Many people's thoughts wandered. Could it be that if the Battle Saint King wanted to tumble with her, to taste her beautiful fragrance, this haughty Imperial Clan maiden would also be willing?
Just thinking of this point, who knows how many male Cultivators felt evil fires rising within.
After all, Wanyan Chenxue was so delicate, beautiful, and peerless, with extraordinary cultivation, and born from an Imperial Clan's main line. In the eyes of the world, she was like a lofty, untouchable divine maiden. Her already peerlessly beautiful face was further set off by layers of halos. To obtain her would absolutely stir the most primitive desires of men; she was a rare, exquisite treasure.
She was a Dao companion countless people hoped to unite with.
However, many also came to understand.
Though that was the case, who was the Battle Saint King? A Chaos young generation's supreme, possessing the absolute potential to grow into a future Ancient Path Overlord, having peerless emperor bearing, also the Dan Emperor Clan's First Guest Elder, and the uncrowned king hall master of the Moon Palace, one of the Ancient Path's major Overlord powers.
The Battle Saint King, with his layers of identities piled up, was no longer simply someone qualified to become Wanyan Chenxue's Dao companion. Rather, it was the reverse: Wanyan Chenxue was the one hoping to become his Dao companion, even needing to look up to him.
This begging for mercy was, in fact, something Wanyan Chenxue desperately hoped for.
Heroes naturally love beauties, but do beauties not also love heroes?
Especially a peerless powerhouse like the Battle Saint King, not inferior to an Emperor's son, a figure with the boundless potential to achieve Ancient Path Overlord status—how many maidens wouldn't hope to unite with him, to become his Dao companion?
Even if the Battle Saint King already had wives, and more than one, for such a peerless powerhouse with hope of attaining the Dao and proclaiming himself Emperor, not to mention just having three wives and four concubines, even if he had a harem of three thousand beauties like a mortal emperor, probably no one would dare say anything.
"Chenxue!"
Several Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan Heaven's Pride all changed expression, because they also had some thoughts about Wanyan Chenxue. They hadn't expected her to beg for mercy like this, but they also silently darkened, understanding her thoughts.
If it were someone else, they might still feel indignant. But facing this invincible Battle Saint King, they truly had no heart for comparison.
Unless an Emperor's son came, who could compare to the Battle Saint King?
"Master—"
Nine Serpent also looked at Ye Chen. After all, this Wanyan Chenxue was indeed a delicate, beautiful woman. Perhaps the master would be moved, so it also hesitated somewhat.
Yet Ye Chen's expression did not change upon hearing this. He indifferently and coldly swept a glance at Wanyan Chenxue and said, "Nine Serpent, do it."
Hearing this, not only did the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride all change expression, but others also stared dumbfounded. They hadn't expected this Battle Saint King to also be willing to cruelly destroy a flower, willing to kill such a delicate, beautiful woman.
"Yes, Master!"
Before they could struggle, Nine Serpent's nine massive snake heads suddenly bit down with force. The serpent fangs all had fearsome Dao patterns flowing, directly biting down on the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride. Immediately, blood dyed the inland sea, a very bloody and terrifying scene.
Naturally, the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride had sufficiently strong life force and did not die immediately. Light shone from between their brows as their divine souls tried to rush out, roaring: "Battle Saint King, no matter how capable you are, if you dare kill us, you will face the retaliation of our Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan. You will certainly die!"
"Is that so? Then I'll just wait," Ye Chen's expression did not change in the slightest. On the contrary, he softly uttered a sentence that calmed this stretch of heaven and earth: "If the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan truly dares to act against me, if one comes, I'll kill one; if a pair comes, I'll kill a pair. I'll kill until your Imperial Clan is afraid."
"Do not doubt my words. I had no fear of the five alien Emperors, let alone just an Imperial Clan. Let them come if they dare!"
Plain words, filled with absolute forcefulness and domineering aura.
Even if it was an Imperial Clan, so what? Kill them all the same.
The five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride were stunned. This Battle Saint King was indeed as forceful and domineering as the legends said.
Soon, the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride were bitten down by the Nine-headed Great Serpent. Not even their divine souls managed to escape. They perished completely here.
This scene deeply shook the hearts of everyone on the inland sea, especially those ordinary Cultivators, who felt chills running down their spines.
What a peerless Battle Saint King! Indeed, as forceful and domineering as ever. Even the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride of the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan were killed without hesitation, fearing nothing.
Ye Chen, having settled matters, brushed his sleeves and left. Taking the Nine-headed Great Serpent, he turned and departed, disappearing from the sight of the world, leaving behind countless shocked people.
Anyone could imagine that this incident would inevitably cause a huge uproar.
Not just because of the Battle Saint King's appearance, but also because he had killed the young Heaven's Pride of the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan, the Overlord of Birth Emperor Star.
During this period, the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan had been very forceful in targeting outer realms Great Powers, slaying several outer realms Great Powers, creating a situation where outer realms powerhouses were all fearful for their safety. Many were preparing to leave Birth Emperor Star.
Now they had also sent Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride to pursue and kill Ancient Path Heaven's Pride, clearly forcing these Ancient Path Heaven's Pride to leave as well, declaring the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan's Overlord status.
It could be said that at this critical juncture, the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan held the upper hand, incomparably forceful, with few daring to provoke their displeasure.
Yet today, the Battle Saint King's forceful slaying of the five Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride would undoubtedly, at this critical juncture, deliver a powerful invisible slap to the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan's face, severely blunting the Imperial Clan's edge, reversing the situation and causing a great impact.
Perhaps the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan would spare no effort to act against the Battle Saint King, preventing the Myriad Ancient Assembly from proceeding smoothly.
Sure enough, not long after, once this matter spread, the entire Birth Emperor Star was shaken. Everyone's gaze turned toward the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan, wanting to see what reaction this Birth Emperor Star's Overlord ancient clan would have, whether they would send out peerless powerhouses to pursue and kill the Battle Saint King to recover their majesty.
Yet, disappointingly, the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan actually did not make a response, as if wary of the Battle Saint King. This shocked many. Could the Battle Saint King truly be that fearsome?
At the same time, within the Primordial Beginning Emperor Clan, a batch of even more powerful Imperial Clan Heaven's Pride emerged. They did not continue speaking on the topic of the Battle Saint King but instead pointed toward all Ancient Path Heaven's Pride on Birth Emperor Star!
A greater action was brewing!
