"Brother Guan!"
"Guan Jingtian!"
On the other side of the Great Dao Altar Table, the others were greatly shocked to see Guan Jingtian suddenly let out a miserable cry and fall backwards onto the ground.
It was completely without warning!
Guan Jingtian instantly felt his mind go blank. His pupil technique had been shattered, and his mind was filled with the image of Ye Chen's ruthless gaze, which seemed to say, 'The Way of Heaven is merciless, treating all beings as straw dogs.' It was like an ancient, supreme emperor looking down upon him from on high, as if gazing at an insignificant ant.
His proud pupil technique had proven utterly worthless!
This was no ordinary person, not even an ordinary Divine King.
Ye Chen cast a cold glance at Guan Jingtian. That had merely been a minor lesson. Otherwise, with his Soul Power not inferior to that of an Ancient Monarch, that single glance would have severely wounded even a Super Divine King, or even a Quasi-Monarch who came forward.
Let alone a mere half-step Divine King like Guan Jingtian; even a super Heaven's Pride ranked within the top twenty of the Epoch Quasi-Monarch List would have had their divine soul annihilated.
Many people within the Zui Baxian Hall looked at this scene in surprise, especially at Ye Chen. They had seen Guan Jingtian about to use his pupil technique to exert pressure, but in the blink of an eye, he had fallen, motionless.
Needless to say, this was definitely greatly related to Ye Chen.
But how had he done it?
Xue Wuhen, Qiu Wei, and the other three super Heaven's Prides looked at Ye Chen in shock. To severely wound the divine soul of Guan Jingtian, ranked seventeenth on the Epoch Great Power List, in a single encounter—even Xue Wuhen could never have done that. Just who was this Ye Chen?
Shangguan Ziqing, after her initial shock towards Ye Chen, felt her interest deepen even further.
Her gaze even subtly grew much more fervent.
The woman beside her wore an expression of terror.
From this single move, it was clear that Ye Chen was absolutely no ordinary individual.
Ye Chen's expression turned cold as he looked at them. He was quite annoyed by their actions. "All of you, get lost. Don't come to provoke me again. If any of you dare to attack me next time, even if your elders were here, it wouldn't save you."
With that, he flicked his sleeve, sending out an invisible gust of wind that swept away the numerous super Heaven's Prides, including Shangguan Ziqing, leaving them in a rather sorry state.
Xue Wuhen and the others were secretly alarmed. They had been unable to neutralize this method, which could only be described as unfathomable.
Could he be a Super Divine King?
They also took away Guan Jingtian, who lay on the ground bleeding from all seven orifices and unconscious.
However, knowing that Guan Jingtian's divine soul had been severely wounded, it was likely the forces behind him would not let the matter rest.
Shangguan Ziqing did not leave. After tidying her appearance and restoring her dignified yet alluring demeanor, she stepped forward again, offering a charming smile. "Fellow Daoist, your methods are truly impressive. Could it be that you are a Quasi-Monarch?"
She seriously suspected Ye Chen was indeed a Quasi-Monarch; otherwise, why would Flame God hold him in such high regard?
Such a person could not be given up on so easily. If she could befriend him, it would greatly solidify her position within the Shangqing Sect.
After all, even a powerful force like the Shangqing Sect had only a handful of Quasi-Monarchs.
Ye Chen frowned, looking coldly at Shangguan Ziqing. That icy gaze made her heart tremble, as if she had been targeted by some peerless, ferocious beast. She couldn't help but take a step back.
She only heard Ye Chen snort coldly. "Didn't I tell you to get lost? You still dare to come forward? Aren't you afraid I'll make a move?"
It must be said that when Ye Chen's face turned cold, he truly exuded majesty. Even without deliberately releasing his Quasi-Monarch pressure, Shangguan Ziqing still felt immense oppression. She had no choice but to lightly bite her red lips, appearing exceptionally charming and moving. "Fellow Daoist, must you really bully Ziqing like this?"
It must be said that Shangguan Ziqing, one of the Ten Great Beauties, acting in this manner was truly extremely seductive. Even those who had cultivated their hearts for many years might find their blood boiling.
Moreover, within those enchanting purple eyes, a hint of bewitching charm flickered faintly, making Shangguan Ziqing even more capable of unsettling one's mind.
Unfortunately, she was facing Ye Chen, who uttered a single cold word: "Scram!"
Earlier, he had merely been teasing a little. Now, seeing Shangguan Ziqing's affected manner, and considering she hadn't stopped Guan Jingtian from attacking him, the disgust in his heart had long reached its peak.
Shangguan Ziqing was hailed as one of the Ten Great Beauties of the Origin Ancient Road. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? Her face wore an aggrieved expression, even pitiable, causing many to secretly curse Ye Chen for having no appreciation for beauty.
Some Divine Kings even prepared to step forward, hoping to teach Ye Chen a lesson and win Shangguan Ziqing's favor. But at that moment, an elderly figure strode forward with a dragon's pace and tiger's stride, exuding immense majesty. "Hmph! This old man would like to see who dares to tell the Holy Maiden of my Shangqing Sect to scram."
"Grandfather Yingshan."
Shangguan Ziqing's eyes reddened as she went to the elderly figure's side. Her tearful appearance was quite pitiable, making many curse Ye Chen for being able to speak so harshly.
Seeing Shangguan Ziqing in this state, Yingshan's aged face grew even colder and more ruthless. A terrifying sense of icy chill emanated from his entire person.
Of course, this only enveloped the area within a radius of several dozen zhang around the Great Dao Altar Table where Ye Chen sat.
As for the side, a hundred zhang away, that was where Flame God's Great Dao Altar Table was. He dared not let his aura affect those Quasi-Monarchs.
Ye Chen frowned. He had scolded the junior, and now the senior had come.
At the same time, several other figures appeared, all of them profound figures within the Divine King realm, at least at the level of Five-Calamity Divine Kings or above. There was even a Seven-Calamity Divine King. They were clearly the super-powerful experts from the forces behind Guan Jingtian, Qiu Wei, Xue Wuhen, and the others.
Seeing their super Heaven's Prides humiliated in such a manner, they naturally couldn't stand by and watch, appearing personally.
Especially from the force behind Guan Jingtian, an Eight-Calamity Divine King had emerged.
The arrival of several powerful Divine Kings, looking down from on high at Ye Chen, who sat leisurely before the Great Dao Altar Table savoring fine wine.
"Daring to bully the super Heaven's Prides of our various major forces, youngster, your courage is truly great," said the Shangqing Sect Divine King named Yingshan, his gaze as sharp as an eagle's fixed coldly on Ye Chen.
Another Super Divine King spoke. "Daring to sit at a Great Dao Altar Table, it seems you really have grown tired of living. If you're not a Quasi-Monarch, how dare you sit here?"
"Scram!"
Ye Chen's eyes widened. A terrifying surge of Soul Power erupted, instantly transforming into a vast, invisible storm of soul force that thunderously assaulted the eight Divine Kings standing before him.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the blink of an eye, these powerful Divine Kings, each at least a Five-Calamity Divine King or above, were struck as if by lightning. They were all sent flying backwards, coughing blood, in an extremely sorry state.
They looked at Ye Chen in terror, only now realizing they had run into a tough opponent.
Only now did Shangguan Ziqing and the other seven super Heaven's Prides understand. Ye Chen had repelled eight powerful Divine Kings with a single glare, including an Eight-Calamity Divine King like Yingshan. He was absolutely no ordinary person.
His cultivation likely surpassed the Divine King realm.
A Quasi-Monarch?
When this thought arose, waves of shock surged in the hearts of the eight super Heaven's Prides.
Before such a Quasi-Monarch, even super Heaven's Prides like them, famous on the Epoch Great Power List, were merely slightly stronger ants.
No wonder this fellow could sit before a Great Dao Altar Table. It wasn't because of Flame God, but because of his own self.
Only Shangguan Ziqing bit her red lips with her silver teeth, looking at Ye Chen with a trace of resentment in her eyes.
I refuse to believe you are a Quasi-Monarch.
Just wait. I will definitely expose you!
