"Well then, we'll wait and see!"
Zou Yi sneered.
At this moment, on a certain peak near Heavenly Dao Academy.
A dozen or so figures with sharp, oppressive auras stood.
All of them were Imperial Realm experts!
"Everyone, it's not doing us any good to keep waiting like this.
It's almost been three days, and we still haven't seen Ye Yunfei show himself.
It's possible Ye Yunfei simply won't return to Heavenly Dao Academy at all.
We must take some action to quickly track down Ye Yunfei's whereabouts."
One of the Imperial Realm experts said.
"I heard that Meng Qianzheng, one of the Vice Deans of Heavenly Dao Academy, has an excellent relationship with Ye Yunfei.
Why don't we do this: capture Meng Qianzheng, then spread the word. Once Ye Yunfei gets the message, he'll surely come to rescue him."
Another Imperial Realm expert suggested.
"But if Ye Yunfei finds out it was us who acted, he might go and retaliate against the powers we belong to.
That Ye Yunfei kid, his nature is savage and he retaliates for the smallest grievance."
An Imperial Realm expert expressed some concern.
"That's easy to solve.
When we act, conceal our true appearances, and no one will know who captured Meng Qianzheng.
When Ye Yunfei comes to rescue Meng Qianzheng, we'll all join forces and kill Ye Yunfei. That will be the end of it."
The Imperial Realm expert who proposed capturing Meng Qianzheng said.
"That's a good idea!"
The other Imperial Realm experts all nodded one by one.
"Since everyone agrees, let's act immediately. There's no need to wait around uselessly any longer.
We'll conceal our true appearances and directly enter the Heavenly Dao Academy headquarters to capture Meng Qianzheng."
The one who made the proposal said.
"Good!"
The other Imperial Realm experts nodded.
Thus, these dozen-plus Imperial Realm experts simultaneously displayed their movement techniques and stealthily rushed towards the Heavenly Dao Academy headquarters.
Their movement techniques were extremely profound.
Moving like a group of ghosts, their speed was a blur—far too fast for the naked eye to catch.
In the blink of an eye, these Imperial Realm experts swiftly rushed into the Heavenly Dao Academy headquarters.
The disciples guarding the mountain gates were completely unable to detect them.
At the same time, in a valley near the Heavenly Dao Academy headquarters.
Dozens of martial artists were gathered.
Also present, seated in a corner, was a red-clothed maiden of about sixteen years, her expression haggard, her gaze full of anger.
This red-clothed maiden had an oval face with arching eyebrows, carrying a spark of spirit in her expression.
It was precisely Long Yingying!
Although she was a member of the Battle Clan with a fierce and battle-loving temperament, she was also a classic beauty.
"Hehe...
Wu Wei, Wu Yuan, you two are really something, catching another beauty. When you take her back and deliver her to the Eldest Young Master, he definitely won't treat you poorly."
In the valley, the other martial artists occasionally glanced at Long Yingying, commenting and appraising.
These martial artists were all from the Sacred Domain's Wu Clan!
"Haha, of course.
Originally, we discovered two beauties, but Young Master Wu An took a fancy to one of them. So, we can only take this one back to be delivered to the Eldest Young Master.
Right now, Young Master Wu An is at Tianxuan City, holding his wedding with that other beauty."
A tall, lean middle-aged man laughed proudly.
This man was precisely Wu Wei.
"Oh? Young Master Wu An is holding a wedding with a beauty?
That seems a bit frivolous.
Our Wu Clan is the number one great clan of the Profound Yellow Starfield. Countless women dream of marrying into our clan.
How can Young Master Wu An be so hasty, so easily giving a woman the chance to marry into our Wu Clan?
Wu Wei, Wu Yuan, why didn't you two advise Young Master Wu An to just have some fun with that woman? There's no need to marry her at all."
A black-robed elder shook his head.
"Decisions made by Young Master Wu An—how could we possibly dissuade him?
You all know Young Master Wu An's temperament, don't you?"
Wu Wei replied.
"When we run into Young Master Wu An, we'll all advise him to divorce that woman then."
Several other members of the Wu Clan spoke up.
"Correct!
When the time comes, we must convince Young Master Wu An to divorce that woman!"
The black-robed elder said.
"If you wish to see Wu An, you'll have to go to hell to find him."
Just at that moment, a faint voice rang out.
Then, to the astonishment of these Wu Clan members, a young man strode into the valley with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Who goes there!"
The few dozen Wu Clan members in the valley were all greatly alarmed, their gazes fixed tightly on the young man entering the valley.
"Ye Yunfei!"
Long Yingying, sitting in the corner, saw this young man and couldn't help but rejoice.
"He's come to rescue me!"
Long Yingying shed tears of joy, her beautiful eyes immediately welling up with tears.
She absolutely did not want to be delivered to some strange man to be toyed with!
After releasing his Soul Power to search, Ye Yunfei finally discovered Long Yingying's figure in this valley and immediately rushed over.
"It's Ye Yunfei!"
Very quickly, these Wu Clan members recognized Ye Yunfei.
After all, they had come here specifically to deal with him.
Portraits of Ye Yunfei and records of his soul aura were already in everyone's possession.
"Senior Sister Long, you're safe now."
How fast was Ye Yunfei's speed? With a single step, he arrived beside Long Yingying. With a flick of his sleeve, he dispelled the seal within her body.
Immediately, Long Yingying regained complete freedom.
"Halt!"
The few dozen Wu Clan members were greatly alarmed.
"Ye Yunfei, thank you for coming to rescue me!"
By this time, Long Yingying had already jumped up, pressing close to Ye Yunfei and speaking excitedly.
"Senior Sister Long, there's no need for formalities with me."
Ye Yunfei smiled.
"Ye Yunfei, this is a woman our Wu Clan's Eldest Young Master has taken a fancy to. Dare to snatch her, and the consequences will be severe!"
Wu Wei shouted sternly.
He still hoped to take Long Yingying back to earn merit with the Eldest Young Master.
"Your Wu Clan's Eldest Young Master seizes women wherever he goes, his lust knows no bounds, his crimes are heinous.
And all of you Wu Clan members help a tyrant in his crimes, each and every one of you deserve death for your actions."
Ye Yunfei's voice was ice-cold, brimming with killing intent.
"Senior Sister Long, who brought you here?"
Ye Yunfei asked Long Yingying.
"It was those two!"
Long Yingying pointed at Wu Wei and another brawny-built man, saying through gritted teeth.
That brawny-built man was called Wu Yuan.
"Alright then, Senior Sister Long, now you go over and kill them.
Don't worry, I'm here."
Ye Yunfei took out a spirit sword and handed it to Long Yingying, speaking.
"Okay, Ye Yunfei, I'll listen to you!"
Long Yingying hesitated briefly before taking the spirit sword.
Then, grasping the sword, she strode towards Wu Wei and Wu Yuan.
"Have her come at us?"
Wu Wei and Wu Yuan were both stunned.
"Haha...
Ye Yunfei, you really look down on us!
Do you think this little wench can actually kill us?!"
"I could kill this little wench with just one finger!"
Wu Wei and Wu Yuan laughed uproariously.
Both of them had only heard some legends about Ye Yunfei but had never personally seen him make a move. Therefore, they didn't harbor much awe or fear towards him.
Now, seeing Ye Yunfei was so young, they didn't pay him much heed. They even wondered if the legends about Ye Yunfei might be somewhat exaggerated.
Soon, Long Yingying walked to a position right in front of Wu Wei and Wu Yuan.
"You two be careful.
Ye Yunfei is not simple."
The black-robed elder frowned and said.
"Haha...
What's there to fear? Watch me defeat this little wench in half a move!"
Wu Wei guffawed.
"Die!"
Long Yingying let out a fierce shout and raised the spirit sword in her hand to stab at Wu Wei.
Hong...
Wu Wei raised his right palm, a vast and mighty pressure of spiritual power erupting from his palm.
He was at the mid-stage Soul Formation Realm!
However, just as Wu Wei prepared to strike.
A small sword suddenly attacked into his Soul Sea, stabbing towards his Soul Body.
"Ah!"
Wu Wei let out a shriek, feeling as if his head was about to split open, about to explode.
At this moment, his entire body felt weak and limp.
Pu!
The spirit sword in Long Yingying's hand stabbed directly into Wu Wei's heart, blood spurting out.
"How... how is this possible... you actually killed me..."
Wu Wei's body slowly slid down, filled with terror and unwillingness, before his head lolled to the side, his breath ceasing entirely.
"Now it's your turn!"
Long Yingying, having stabbed Wu Wei to death with one sword, felt her spirits greatly lifted. Immediately, she raised her spirit sword to attack Wu Yuan.
"Ah!"
Wu Yuan, greatly alarmed, had just wanted to retaliate, but Ye Yunfei once again unleashed a Heaven Soul Sword, attacking into his Soul Sea. Wu Yuan instantly lost all ability to resist.
Pu!
The spirit sword in Long Yingying's hand directly pierced Wu Yuan's heart.
Wu Yuan died on the spot!
