"Young Master Ye, we six old fellows also plan to rest and recuperate for a while.
To be honest, we prefer a leisurely and idle life. All that running around we had to do to deal with the Guardian Faction recently was quite taxing on our hearts and minds. We're starting to feel a bit weary of it all. Next, we really need to enjoy life a little.
However, there's one point you must remember: the fight between you and the Guardian Faction has only just begun, because the Guardian Faction forces in the other voids beyond are even stronger."
Kang Wan and the other five old men suddenly came to find Ye Yunfei, and it was Kang Wan who spoke these words.
During the battle at the Guardian Faction's headquarters earlier, these six old men had barely made a move. They had seen Ye Yunfei effortlessly dominate the entire battlefield, so they had just stood idly by, enjoying the spectacle.
Of course, throughout the entire course of the fighting, they had been ready to assist the forces of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds at any moment. In particular, they had watched over the Deities. The moment they detected any of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds' Deities were in danger, the six of them would immediately intervene. That was why, during the battle, the Deities on their side had suffered minimal casualties; only the ordinary troops had sustained a certain number of losses.
"Very well. You six seniors should rest. I estimate that for a period of time in our void, nothing major will happen. Our Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds shouldn't face any dangers either."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
Then Kang Wan and the other five old men turned and left. They found a very ordinary Small World within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds to begin their seclusion.
"Next, there are still some scores to settle."
Ye Yunfei's gaze turned toward the void outside the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, and a cold smile appeared on his face. Then Ye Yunfei took a single step and walked out of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, arriving in the void outside.
"The first on my list is the Heavenly God Hall."
Ye Yunfei strode in the direction of the Heavenly God Hall's headquarters.
Not long after, Ye Yunfei arrived at the edge of a World Cluster.
The Purple Microcosm World Cluster!
The headquarters of the Heavenly God Hall was located within this Purple Microcosm World Cluster.
"Closing the main gate of your headquarters, trying to hide?
What a pity. Some debts must still be settled, and cannot be avoided."
Ye Yunfei stood at the edge of the Purple Microcosm World Cluster, stretched his perception inside, and discovered that the main gate of the Heavenly God Hall's headquarters was tightly shut, with no one entering or exiting. He couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Naturally, Ye Yunfei knew the Heavenly God Hall was hiding from him.
But Ye Yunfei had no intention of letting the Heavenly God Hall off. He took a single step and walked into the Purple Microcosm World Cluster, arriving outside the Heavenly God Hall's headquarters.
This was an extremely vast world. The entrance and exit to this world had long been tightly closed, and several large-scale Formations had been laid down as well.
Ye Yunfei's proficiency with formations was extremely high. With a single glance, he saw that the Heavenly God Hall's entrance and exit were concealed by these several grand Formations. Anyone else who came here might not even find it.
"All members of the Heavenly God Hall, come out and accept your death!"
Ye Yunfei stood before the Heavenly God Hall headquarters, focused his qi and projected his voice in a mighty roar.
Rumble…
The vast, rolling waves of sound were like stormy billows, surging relentlessly into the world ahead.
"That brat Ye Yunfei has truly come!
Damn it!
During this period, almost everyone in our Heavenly God Hall has been hiding within the headquarters. We've been laying low to the extreme. I never imagined that brat would still hunt us down!"
Inside the Heavenly God Hall, in a palace of splendid gilded splendor, over a dozen high-ranking members of the Heavenly God Hall were sitting cross-legged. Among them were five Deities.
At this moment, the expressions of these five Deities were all extremely unpleasant. One of them gnashed his teeth and spoke.
Previously, the Heavenly God Hall had dispatched a portion of its forces to the Guardian Faction's headquarters to join the fight against the armies of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds. In that battle, all the forces sent by the Heavenly God Hall, including the Deities, had perished. Now, only these five Deities remained in the Heavenly God Hall.
"What should we do?
That brat Ye Yunfei's strength is utterly terrifying. Even Advanced Void Gods are not his match."
These five Deities looked at one another, and for a moment, they didn't know what to do.
"Given the situation now, we have no choice but to be soft before him, lower our posture, and try to avoid a fight at all costs. If he wants us to surrender, we surrender. If he wants compensation, we compensate."
After a moment, one of the Deities let out a sigh and spoke slowly.
This Deity was precisely the Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall.
Meanwhile, outside the Heavenly God Hall headquarters, Ye Yunfei stood with his hands clasped behind his back, a face full of cold smiles.
"The main entrance to the Heavenly God Hall headquarters has been sealed, but it cannot stop us."
Hun Lao spoke up.
"We'll go in now."
Ye Yunfei took out a handful of formation flags and threw them out one after another toward the front. These were all Formation-Breaking Flags, which could be used to counter various Formations and restrictive seals.
Moments later, the main entrance to the Heavenly God Hall headquarters began to shake violently.
"Break for me!"
Ye Yunfei took a step forward.
Boom boom boom…
One explosive sound after another echoed without cease. All the Formations and restrictive seals arranged at the Heavenly God Hall headquarters' entrance exploded.
Ye Yunfei stepped in, arriving inside the world where the Heavenly God Hall's headquarters was located. With a wave of his hand, Ye Yunfei directly teleported out sixty puppets to stand behind him.
These sixty Deity-level puppets simultaneously released their auras. A vast, rising surge of Deity-level energy soared into the sky, sweeping forward like a boundless ocean.
In the next moment, the entire world began to shake violently from the aura emanating from these sixty Deity-level puppets.
What a joke! This was the energy pressure equivalent to sixty Deities releasing their power together. It was utterly terrifying!
Rolling energy hurricanes swept up everywhere in this world, raising clouds of dust. The entire world was trembling. All the people within felt panic-stricken and trembled with fear.
"Kill them!"
Ye Yunfei waved a hand and said lightly.
The sixty Deity-level puppets charged forward to massacre, advancing together. Wherever they went, it was like harvesting rice stalks—they continuously slaughtered the members of the Heavenly God Hall.
Having sixty Deities striking together was truly horrifying. The ordinary members of the Heavenly God Hall were utterly incapable of resisting so many Deity puppets. In practically a single encounter, huge swaths of them were instantly slaughtered.
Thus, the entire Heavenly God Hall headquarters turned into a bloody slaughterhouse. Everywhere was a scene of massacre.
"Ye Yunfei, you are too vicious!"
The five Deities of the Heavenly God Hall simultaneously rushed out of that palace. Seeing so many puppets crazily chasing down and killing Heavenly God Hall troops—it was like tigers had broken into a huge flock of chicks, arbitrarily slaughtering them—these five Deities were both horrified and enraged. One of them couldn't help but roar out.
Ye Yunfei spotted the Heavenly God Hall's five Deities from afar and couldn't help but show a cold smile. Clasping his hands behind his back, he strode over.
"We cannot utter any more harsh words. Only by begging for mercy and submitting will we possibly pass through this current crisis. Otherwise, our Heavenly God Hall will truly be extinguished today."
Watching the sixty Deity-level puppets and the murderous Ye Yunfei, the Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall couldn't help but go pale and let out a sigh. He spoke in a low voice.
The strength and means Ye Yunfei possessed now were too terrifying. Forget about one Heavenly God Hall, even ten would not be his match. This was the situation overwhelming the person.
Hearing the Hall Master's words, the other four Deities fell silent, their faces also as pale as paper.
Behind the Heavenly God Hall's five Deities trailed a group of Heavenly God Hall elders. They had long been trembling with fear, watching Ye Yunfei approach in the distance, his aura murderous.
If it weren't for the five Deities of the Heavenly God Hall standing here, they would have turned and fled long ago.
"Young Master Ye, please stop!"
The Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall, leading a large group of Heavenly God Hall elders, went to meet Ye Yunfei, shouting loudly.
Though those sixty Deity-level puppets were still hunting down Heavenly God Hall troops everywhere within the headquarters, these Heavenly God Hall elders had no choice but to greet Ye Yunfei with forced smiles.
"Young Master Ye."
Hearing the Heavenly God Hall Hall Master's address, Ye Yunfei couldn't help but pause momentarily before letting out another cold smile.
"It seems these fellows intend to submit to you and plead for mercy," Hun Lao transmitted to Ye Yunfei.
"It's useless. The Heavenly God Hall, just like the Fire Clan, has publicly announced its allegiance to the Guardian Faction. A portion of Heavenly God Hall's forces participated in the previous battle. Moreover, the Heavenly God Hall has repeatedly sent people to deal with me and the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds before. No matter how they submit or beg for mercy, it's useless," Ye Yunfei said lightly.
Soon, the Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall carefully led the large group of Heavenly God Hall elders before Ye Yunfei. Practically no one dared to look Ye Yunfei directly in the eye. One after another, they involuntarily bent their waists.
"Young Master Ye, please stop. It was indeed our Heavenly God Hall's fault in the past, for offending and opposing you, Young Master Ye.
However, from this moment on, our Heavenly God Hall will absolutely not provoke Young Master Ye again. We beg you, please spare our Heavenly God Hall.
From now on, our Heavenly God Hall will fully obey Young Master Ye's commands in all matters.
Furthermore, our Heavenly God Hall will offer a large sum of reparations, guaranteed to satisfy you, Young Master Ye."
The Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall beamed ingratiatingly, forcing out the most solicitous, careful tone he could muster as he spoke to Ye Yunfei.
The other elders standing behind the Hall Master all bowed low with bent waists, exerting their greatest efforts to plaster fawning smiles on their faces. They were terrified that Ye Yunfei would simply not like the look of them and strike directly.
Ye Yunfei stood there, hands clasped behind his back, remaining silent. His gaze was icy as it swept slowly over the Heavenly God Hall elders before him.
In the distance, scream after scream arose continuously. Those sixty Deity puppets were everywhere, hunting down the troops of the Heavenly God Hall. How could the pitiful, ordinary Heavenly God Hall forces possibly be a match for these Deity-level puppets?
The moment they were caught by these puppets, it almost always ended with instant extermination.
The sixty Deity-level puppets were like sixty large meat grinders. Wherever they went, they chopped down people left and right, and heartrending screams rang out without end.
Hearing one tragic scream after another from afar, these Heavenly God Hall elders trembled slightly. They knew that continuing like this, the Heavenly God Hall's people would likely all be slaughtered.
But Ye Yunfei just stood there, hands clasped behind his back. His gaze was as cold as lightning, and he did not speak a word. A terrifying energy pressure emanated from his frame, making them utterly unable to move.
In the great battle at the Guardian Faction's headquarters, Ye Yunfei single-handedly slaughtered several Advanced Void Gods of the Guardian Faction and a great batch of Deities. His terrible, renowned ferocity had already spread throughout the entire void. Who wouldn't fear him?
"Young Master Ye, please spare our Heavenly God Hall. Our Heavenly God Hall's heritage has lasted for ages; we could not easily preserve the foundations handed down by our ancestors. It must not be destroyed in our hands.
Young Master Ye, as long as you spare our Heavenly God Hall, we will agree to any demand."
The Hall Master of the Heavenly God Hall spoke again, steeling his resolve.
