"Take action!"
Ye Yunfei directly charged into the cave ahead.
Roar...!
The Earth Dragon inside the cave saw Ye Yunfei and immediately emitted an angry roar.
Then, it pounced toward Ye Yunfei to kill him.
Ye Yunfei turned and fled, rushing out of the cave.
Boom...!
The Earth Dragon chased after him, its enormous body causing the entire underground world to shake and tremble.
The Earth Dragon Ye Yunfei had subdued was already prepared, waiting outside.
When the dragon from the cave rushed out, Ye Yunfei's tamed Earth Dragon immediately charged forward.
Boom...!
The two Earth Dragons began a fierce battle.
The clash of the two Earth Dragons caused a terrible earthquake to erupt on the ground above.
The earth cracked, mountains crumbled, and rivers were cut off!
"Lead it to the designated location!"
Ye Yunfei transmitted a command to the Earth Dragon he had subdued.
Immediately, Ye Yunfei's Earth Dragon began to fight while retreating.
Incited by the battle, the other Earth Dragon pressed close in pursuit.
Moments later.
"Now! Dragon-Sealing Formation!"
Ye Yunfei formed hand seals and pointed with his finger.
Boom...!
A profound underground formation suddenly erupted.
Massive waves of formation runes instantly surrounded that Earth Dragon.
Roar...!
The Earth Dragon seemed startled and alarmed. It turned and tried to flee.
Because it recognized these as the methods of an Earth Master!
In the past, it was precisely through such Earth Master techniques used by the founding patriarch of the Houtu Sect that it had been captured and imprisoned beneath the Earth Pagoda.
"You can't escape."
Ye Yunfei laughed and pointed with his finger.
Boom...!
Ahead on the Earth Dragon's escape path, another Dragon-Sealing Formation erupted. Surging formation runes rushed forward in a swarm, converging toward the Earth Dragon.
Roar...!
The Earth Dragon, both shocked and enraged, turned to flee in another direction.
Boom...!
In that direction, another Dragon-Sealing Formation instantly activated, blocking its path once more.
Ye Yunfei had long since calculated and prepared meticulously for every possible escape route the Earth Dragon might take.
Several Dragon-Sealing Formations worked together, bearing down on the Earth Dragon with immense force.
Very soon, that Earth Dragon felt tremendous pressure.
Roar...!
The Earth Dragon struggled desperately, shaking the underground world violently, causing deafening rumbles.
"Dragon-Binding Chains!"
Ye Yunfei pointed again.
Clatter, clatter...
Numerous yellow chains appeared in the underground world, trembling and crisscrossing like layers of spider webs, winding their way toward the Earth Dragon.
"Dragon-Suppressing Nails!"
Ye Yunfei pointed once more.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Long, yellow spikes shot toward the Earth Dragon, striking its thick body.
Roar...!
The Earth Dragon angrily rammed and struggled, refusing to submit.
Gradually, as it struggled continuously, the Dragon-Sealing Formations, Dragon-Binding Chains, and Dragon-Suppressing Nails Ye Yunfei had set down began to lose their hold on it.
"Go!"
Ye Yunfei issued an order to the Earth Dragon he had subdued.
Immediately, Ye Yunfei's Earth Dragon charged over and launched an attack on the Earth Dragon trying to escape.
Finally, under the combined pressure of the Dragon-Sealing Formations, Dragon-Binding Chains, Dragon-Suppressing Nails, and Ye Yunfei's tamed Earth Dragon, the wild Earth Dragon began to falter.
Gradually, it lacked the strength to struggle.
Several Dragon-Sealing Formations, a large number of Dragon-Binding Chains, and Dragon-Suppressing Nails swarmed over it, tightly binding its bulky body.
With a flash, Ye Yunfei landed and sat cross-legged on the head of this Earth Dragon.
Then, Ye Yunfei released his Soul Power and let it seep into the Earth Dragon's head.
Having experience from subduing the first Earth Dragon, Ye Yunfei already knew how to tame one.
However, the first Earth Dragon had cooperated voluntarily.
This one, however, resisted desperately.
Therefore, only after a full day did Ye Yunfei finally manage to leave a Soul Power imprint inside this Earth Dragon's head.
In this way, Ye Yunfei could now communicate with this Earth Dragon.
He offered it some reassurance, promising not to imprison it in one place.
"Finally succeeded."
Ye Yunfei let out a long sigh.
Then.
Standing on the head of one Earth Dragon, Ye Yunfei drove both dragons to roam freely and joyfully underground, feeling utterly carefree!
Only after another half a day did Ye Yunfei finally bring the two Earth Dragons back to the Houtu Sect headquarters.
Ye Yunfei had the two Earth Dragons stay in the cave beneath the Earth Pagoda.
However, Ye Yunfei did not restrict their movement.
Instead, he allowed these two Earth Dragons to go out themselves to replenish Earth Qi Energy when needed.
Ye Yunfei himself returned to his cultivation peak, entered a private chamber, and sat cross-legged to quietly recuperate.
At that moment.
Suddenly.
Outside the Houtu Sect headquarters.
Ships appeared one after another, dense and numerous, streaking across the sky to stop outside the headquarters.
Then, from these ships, group after group of people disembarked, all emanating killing intent.
Very quickly, two great banners unfurled high in the sky.
One banner bore the two large characters 'Ouyang'.
The other banner bore a single character: 'Hu'.
The forces of the Ouyang Family and the Hu Clan had arrived!
"Enemies are here!"
Figures shot up into the sky from the Houtu Sect headquarters.
"Ouyang Family! Hu Clan! What is the meaning of this!"
A Houtu Sect Elder demanded.
"The Houtu Sect's Holy Son Su Ye murdered several dozen of our Ouyang Family's younger generation members in the cave abode of the Eastern Cleansing True Lord. Today, our Ouyang Family has specially come for revenge!"
A gray-robed Elder from the Ouyang Family stepped forward and proclaimed loudly.
"Our Hu Clan has also come today because your Houtu Sect's Holy Son Su Ye cruelly harmed our Hu Clan's younger disciples. We are here to exact vengeance!"
A purple-robed man walked out from the ranks of the Hu Clan's forces and declared clearly.
"The younger generation ventures out to gain experience and temper themselves. It is completely normal that there are casualties and deaths during clashes. Could it be that disciples of your Ouyang Family and Hu Clan have never killed anyone?"
At this moment, Yan Tianzong appeared in the sky above the headquarters and shouted in question.
"Hahaha...! What excellent words, 'completely normal'! You speak so lightly. Today, our Ouyang Family's army will level the Houtu Sect and let the world know our Ouyang Family is not to be bullied!"
The Ouyang Family's gray-robed Elder cried harshly.
"Have Su Ye roll out immediately! Our Hu Clan has come this time primarily for Su Ye!"
The Hu Clan's purple-robed man said coldly.
"Right! First, have Su Ye roll out! Our Ouyang Family's disciple, Ouyang Feng, is still in Su Ye's hands! Have him release the prisoner at once!"
The Ouyang Family's gray-robed Elder also shouted loudly.
"I'm right here."
A voice sounded. Then, Ye Yunfei appeared in the sky above the headquarters.
"Are you talking about him?"
Ye Yunfei waved a hand, teleporting Ouyang Feng out from the Phantom Tower and lifting him in his hand as if holding a chick.
"Third Elder! Save me quickly! Kill Su Ye! He shattered my dantian. Kill him quickly and help me get revenge!"
Seeing that gray-robed Elder, Ouyang Feng immediately screamed.
"Su Ye, release the prisoner immediately. Perhaps I will grant you an intact corpse. Otherwise, you will be executed by a thousand cuts!"
That gray-robed Elder took a step forward and unleashed surging Spiritual Force pressure, crushing toward Ye Yunfei.
He was a late-stage Great Mystic Pill Realm expert!
Ye Yunfei stood firm as a mountain, unmoving.
"Su Ye! Did you hear the Third Elder!? Don't release me immediately!"
Ouyang Feng roared hoarsely.
"If you tell me to let go and I do, wouldn't I lose face?"
Lifting Ouyang Feng, Ye Yunfei chuckled coldly.
As soon as his words fell.
Ye Yunfei's palm suddenly vibrated.
Pfft!
Ouyang Feng's physical body exploded on the spot, turning into a cloud of bloody mist.
"You little beast! You're seeking death!"
The gray-robed Elder's furious roar shook the heavens and the earth.
