Boom…
The combined spiritual might pressure released by the seven Imperial Realm experts surged forth, terrifyingly imposing, forcing the three Demon Kings back several steps.
"Liu Gonggong, you should go back.
Our Ancient Demon Race will not submit to your Nine Li Imperial Dynasty," Demon King Wuque said coldly, steadying himself.
"Indeed.
Get lost! Our Guyao Realm is not a place for you to act recklessly!" Aoyue Demon King also shouted.
"Haha…
Three Demon Kings, I advise you not to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit.
To our Nine Li Imperial Dynasty, a puny Ancient Demon Race is nothing noteworthy.
Let me be frank. Apart from your Guyao Realm, we have already dispatched emissaries to the other six domains within the Xuanhuang Starfield to demand their surrender.
Anyone who dares not submit will meet their end!" Liu Gonggong sneered.
"It seems your Nine Li Imperial Dynasty is planning to coordinate from within and without with the Expeditionary Army of the Star Nation," a voice said coolly at that moment. Then, Ye Yunfei abruptly appeared beside the three Demon Kings.
"Brat, who are you?!" Liu Gonggong's eyes narrowed as he stared at Ye Yunfei, demanding sharply.
"I am Ye Yunfei," Ye Yunfei said indifferently.
"What?!
You are Ye Yunfei!
How are you here?!" Hearing this, Liu Gonggong couldn't help but be greatly alarmed.
The name Ye Yunfei had already become renowned throughout the Xuanhuang Starfield. As an expert of the Nine Li Imperial Dynasty, Liu Gonggong naturally knew of Ye Yunfei.
"Three Demon Kings, what is the meaning of this?
Why is Ye Yunfei in your Guyao Realm? Could it be he has come to stir up trouble again?" Liu Gonggong looked toward the three Demon Kings.
"No.
Our Ancient Demon Race has now surrendered to Master and acts upon his commands.
The ones truly causing trouble in our Guyao Realm are you." Demon King Wuque declared loudly.
"Master?
The Three Great Demon Kings, you address Ye Yunfei as Master?
What is going on?
Aren't your Ancient Demon Race and Ye Yunfei mortal enemies?" Hearing this, Liu Gonggong was utterly dumbfounded, wondering if he had misheard.
"Liu Gonggong, this is a matter for our Ancient Demon Race. You need not concern yourself.
Alright, you may leave." Demon King Wuque said coldly.
"Haha…
Leave?
With just a single word from your Ancient Demon Race, you expect to send me away?
And you, Ye Yunfei, our Nine Li Imperial Dynasty has been wanting to send someone to find you. Since you have willingly delivered yourself today, excellent. Immediately hand over the Demigod Herb.
Also, I've heard you possess many advanced cultivation techniques and secret arts. Hand those over too.
Right, I also heard the precious treasure of the Tianji Sect, the Veiling Heaven Shroud, is also on your person. Surrender it all. Otherwise, die!"
Liu Gonggong suddenly burst into wild laughter, speaking as he laughed.
"Move!
Capture them all!" Liu Gonggong waved a hand, and he along with the other six Imperial Realm experts moved forward, pressing the attack.
"Hmph!
You really think we are easy to bully?!" The three Demon Kings simultaneously stepped forward, towering demonic power surging skyward.
"So the three Demon Kings have all broken through to the Early Stage Imperial Realm.
No wonder you dare not hold our Nine Li Imperial Dynasty in regard.
However, so what? Before us, you simply aren't enough to look at." Liu Gonggong was taken aback for a moment before sneering.
"Liu Gonggong, three mere Early Stage Imperial Realm experts. I can handle them myself," a middle-aged man said indifferently as he strode forward.
Rumble…
A powerful spiritual might erupted from his body, causing space to tremble.
This middle-aged man was a Mid Imperial Stage expert.
"Die."
The middle-aged man thrust out a palm, which continuously enlarged as it slammed toward the three Demon Kings.
The vast and mighty spiritual pressure was like towering waves—terrifyingly extreme.
The faces of the three Demon Kings changed.
They had only recently broken through to the Early Stage Imperial Realm. Facing a Mid Imperial Stage expert, they were still somewhat inadequate.
"Allow me." Ye Yunfei said, stepping forward with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Ye Yunfei, since you are so overconfident, I'll capture you first." That middle-aged man sneered. The palm covered the sky and earth, like a massive cloud pressing down toward Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei stood there with his hands behind his back, neither dodging nor avoiding, a cold smile on his face.
"Ye Yunfei, just keep pretending. However, reckless ignorance demands a price!" That middle-aged man couldn't help but show anger on his face, shouting coldly.
In the blink of an eye, the massive palm was about to strike Ye Yunfei.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei suddenly moved. His right hand stretched out, clenched into a fist, and then he threw a punch.
Borrowing Heaven's Nine Burials Fist!
Rumble…
As Ye Yunfei's fist extended, the surrounding energy and laws of heaven and earth surged together, and a kind of heavenly and earthly momentum empowered the fist.
For every inch the fist advanced, the power contained within grew stronger by several degrees.
By the end, the entire fist emitted continuous rumbling sounds, as if pushing the entire heavens and earth forward—a momentum so terrifying it was terrifyingly extreme.
In an instant, Ye Yunfei's fist collided with that massive palm.
"How is this possible?!" That middle-aged man cried out in alarm. He felt completely incapable of resisting this punch from Ye Yunfei.
However, by now it was too late to retreat.
*Puff!*
The palm the middle-aged man had sent out exploded into pieces on the spot.
Yet, Ye Yunfei's punch had not exhausted its momentum. It continued to advance rapidly forward.
The next moment, the fist landed squarely on the middle-aged man's chest.
*Bam!*
The middle-aged man let out a miserable scream as his body exploded on the spot.
Currently, Ye Yunfei's mastery over the Borrowing Heaven's Nine Burials Fist had reached a level where he could directly contend against a Late Imperial Stage expert. Punishing a Mid Imperial Stage expert with one fist was not difficult!
"How is this possible!
What kind of fist technique is this, to be so overbearing!" Liu Gonggong and the other five were all greatly shocked, retreating simultaneously.
However, since Ye Yunfei had made his move, he did not intend to stop.
*Whoosh!*
Ye Yunfei activated the Heavenly Shadow Robe, took a step forward, and like a ghost, instantly closed in on another Mid Imperial Stage expert.
This Mid Imperial Stage expert retreated repeatedly, but Ye Yunfei's speed far surpassed his. In one step, Ye Yunfei arrived before him, almost standing right against him.
Ye Yunfei still threw a punch.
"Ye Yunfei, die!" At this moment, Liu Gonggong suddenly summoned an Innate Treasure, launching it toward Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger. Two Innate Treasures shot out to intercept it.
And then.
*Puff!*
Ye Yunfei's fist blasted that Mid Imperial Stage expert to death.
"Now, it's your turn." Ye Yunfei's gaze fell on Liu Gonggong as he said indifferently.
"Ye Yunfei, how dare you kill our Nine Li Imperial Dynasty's people! Aren't you afraid the Sovereign will settle accounts with you?!
Moreover, our Nine Li Imperial Dynasty is a subordinate force of the Star Nation. I advise you, it's best you do not provoke us." Liu Gonggong's face was somewhat pale as he spoke.
The combat power Ye Yunfei had displayed had thoroughly intimidated him, leaving him without any will to fight.
"It's not the first time I've killed your Nine Li Imperial Dynasty's people. Killing a few more makes no difference." Ye Yunfei said lightly.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
Ye Yunfei willed it, simultaneously activating two Innate Treasures to blast forward.
The power unleashed by Innate Treasures driven by Ye Yunfei's Weapon Control Art techniques was extremely formidable.
Liu Gonggong and the four Early Stage Imperial Realm experts were forced to retreat repeatedly.
*Whoosh!*
Ye Yunfei charged toward Liu Gonggong.
"You block him!" Liu Gonggong shouted. Then, he actually turned and fled, dashing toward the distance.
"Haha…
You can't escape." Ye Yunfei stepped into the depths of space and disappeared. The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already blocking Liu Gonggong's path.
"Ye Yunfei, I'll fight you to the death!" In his panic and fury, Liu Gonggong activated an Innate Treasure to kill Ye Yunfei.
However, in just two moves, he was blasted to death by Ye Yunfei's fist.
Then, Ye Yunfei slowly turned his gaze toward the remaining four Early Stage Imperial Realm experts.
Seeing Ye Yunfei kill three Mid Imperial Stage experts in succession, those four Early Stage Imperial Realm experts were already pale-faced and their legs weak.
"Now, I give you two choices.
First, surrender and follow me from now on.
Second, die." Ye Yunfei said coldly, hands clasped behind his back.
Ye Yunfei understood that with his current strength, he could only plant Soul Restrictions on Early Stage Imperial Realm cultivators. He could not yet do so to Mid Imperial Stage ones. Therefore, he had killed the three Mid Imperial Stage experts first, leaving these four Early Stage Imperial Realm ones.
"Ye Yunfei, we are from the Nine Li Imperial Court!
Why should we surrender to you!" One Early Stage Imperial Realm expert suddenly gathered his courage and shouted.
"Die." Ye Yunfei pointed a finger. The Five Element Spirit Swords appeared, forming the Five Elements Deity-Slaying Sword Array, rolling forward and grinding that Early Stage Imperial Realm expert to dust.
"What about you?" Ye Yunfei's gaze fell on the remaining three Early Stage Imperial Realm experts.
"We are willing to surrender." In the end, the three Early Stage Imperial Realm experts chose to submit.
Next, Ye Yunfei planted Soul Restrictions within each of these three Early Stage Imperial Realm experts.
Thus, Ye Yunfei gained three more Early Stage Imperial Realm slaves!
"It seems the Heavenly Dao Academy is in trouble.
I must hurry back." Ye Yunfei learned from these three Early Stage Imperial Realm experts that the Nine Li Imperial Dynasty had also dispatched a group of experts to the North Wasteland Domain, intending to force the surrender of several major factions there—with the threat of annihilation should they refuse!
