Chapter 18: Green Cloud Sword Appears!
Chapter 18: Green Cloud Sword Appears!
The atmosphere was very strange.
The Ye family was extremely quiet now. Everyone was looking at the mysterious old man.
His eyes were turbid. He raised his arm slightly and easily caught the wooden sword that was filled with dark sword qi with two fingers.
Ye Qiubai's expression froze. The wooden sword in his hand pressed forward again, and demonic qi erupted!
The Nine Heavenly Demon Sword.
The third strike!
The current Ye Qiubai had already broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm, so his might was naturally not like before.
However, his sword was still held tightly between the old man's fingers!
The old man sighed. "Stop trying. You're not my match."
With that said, he waved his hand gently, and Ye Qiubai retreated explosively as if he had been struck by lightning!
Ye Qing's expression was solemn as he stood in front of Ye Qiubai and looked at the old man. "Ancestor."
Ye Ling, Ye Yan, and the elders of the Ye Family also bowed respectfully to the old man and said, "Greetings, Ancestor."
That's right, the old man was the Ancestor of the Ye Family and the strongest person in the Ye Family.
Ye Qiubai was slightly stunned when he heard this. While he knew that the Ye family had an Ancestor, he had never seen him before.
He had only heard that the Ancestor was in seclusion all year round and wanted to break through the shackles!
The Ye family's Ancestor looked at Ye Qiubai and slowly said, "Now that you've killed an elder, you should have vented most of your anger. Let's stop here."
His tone was calm, but no one could doubt him!
Ye Qing's expression changed.
He knew that the Ancestor was biased towards Ye Ling's side!
Ye Qiubai's expression didn't change as he said indifferently, "Why? He's allowed to kill me, but I'm not allowed to kill him?"
The Ye family's Ancestor's tone was deep and meaningful, "You're a member of the Ye family after all. Of course, you have to prioritize the Ye family's overall situation."
"Oh? Ye Yan's talent is not as good as mine and his strength is not as good as mine…"
At this point, Ye Qiubai looked at Ye Yan, who was hiding very far behind with a terrified expression. He couldn't help but mock, "He's even inferior when it comes to courage."
"So, why did you protect him and abandon me for the sake of the Ye family?"
The Ye family's Ancestor glanced at Ye Yan and could not help but sigh, "Indeed, I agree with this. Be it talent, strength, or character, you're simply perfect as the next family head…"
"However, you have a grudge with the Sunset Dynasty, so you can only retreat and be second in place."
"Besides, you don't have a strong sense of belonging to the Ye family."
Ye Qiubai was indifferent.
If it was in the past, he would have risked his life for the Ye family.
But now, after experiencing so many things, the survival of the Ye family, prosperity, wealth, or gradual decline had nothing to do with Ye Qiubai anymore.
"Therefore, I can only let you suffer for the Ye family."
"What if I must kill him today?"
The Ye family's Ancestor's turbid eyes suddenly widened.
An irresistible pressure swept towards Ye Qiubai!
To him, Ye Qiubai was just a genius who hadn't grown up.
If he was obedient, he could still stay.
However, if he rebelled, the Ye family's Ancestor would kill him mercilessly!
Ye Qing's expression changed. He immediately stood in front of Ye Qiubai and stretched out his hands to block the pressure.
However, with Ye Qing's current cultivation, he had to use all his strength just to resist this might.
"Qiubai, you can leave first and return to the Hidden Dao Academy."
Without waiting for Ye Qiubai to speak, the Ye family's Ancestor said in a low voice, "Since you've already attacked, how can we let the tiger return to the mountain?"
If Ye Qiubai returned to the Hidden Dao Academy,
even the Ye family's Ancestor would not have the slightest confidence in killing Ye Qiubai in the Hidden Dao Academy!
The Dean of the academy, Qin Tiannan, was ranked 26th on the Ranking Of The Four Regions after all.
And he could not even squeeze into the bottom of the rankings.
Of course, he was not his match.
At that time, even if he would be unable to deal with Ye Qiubai's strength it would probably bring about a calamity to the Ye family!
The Ye family's Ancestor knew this very well. His body swayed and he immediately rushed towards Ye Qiubai!
Ye Qing gritted his teeth and charged forward!
Ye Qiubai didn't think of leaving directly. His expression froze as he took out an ancient sword.
The long sword was sealed in the scabbard.
However, there were also faint wisps of sword intent rising!
The Green Cloud Sword!
This was the sword that Lu Changsheng had given Ye Qiubai back then. However, Ye Qiubai couldn't control it back then.
Now that he had comprehended Sword Intent and his cultivation had improved, he wondered if he could pull it out and slash it!
The Ye family's Ancestor was extremely powerful and extremely sensitive to danger.
Seeing Ye Qiubai take out this sword, he immediately felt a fear that seeped into his soul!
"What sword is this?!"
The Ye family's Ancestor retreated explosively and shouted sharply, "How can this sword be covered in sword intent?!"
Sword Intent belonged to oneself.
The Ye family's Ancestor had never heard of a sword that could carry its own sword intent!
Even the refining masters of the Southern Region couldn't refine the sword intent!
Ye Qiubai didn't say anything. Instead, he took a step forward and wanted to pull out the Green Cloud Sword in his hand!
Waves of sword intent rose!
Even Ye Qiubai's sword intent began to fill the entire Ye family!
"Sword intent! You've comprehended sword intent!"
A dazzling killing intent appeared in the Ye family's Ancestor's eyes!
A swordsman who had comprehended sword intent at such a young age.
If they did not kill him, the Ye Family would be destroyed in the future!
At the same time, there was a trace of regret in his heart. How high could a person who had comprehended sword intent at such a young age bring the Ye family to?
'No, that's not right.'
The Sunset Dynasty wouldn't allow Ye Qiubai to continue growing!
Thinking of this, the Ye family's Ancestor affirmed his thoughts and attacked Ye Qiubai!
His aura was overwhelming!
It swept through Ye Qiubai with endless pressure!
It was as if it wanted to kill him!
Ye Qiubai faced the attack without retreating or dodging.
He held the hilt of the Green Cloud Sword in one hand and the scabbard in the other, wanting to pull it out!
He only revealed a little of the sword body, and sword intent soared into the sky!
Even the entire Tianyuan City could feel it!
It was extremely sharp, as if it wanted to split the world apart!
At the same time, Ye Qiubai felt waves of sword intent fill his body after pulling out this little sword. He felt an irresistible force.
If he pulled them all out, Ye Qiubai would probably explode and die on the spot!
However, just the power of the sword intent was enough.
The sword intent swept out, turning into swords that cut through the world and slashed at the incoming palm print attack!
Rumble!
An explosion resounded throughout the entire Ye Family!
The surrounding houses collapsed at this moment!
Some servants with low cultivation levels were even unable to withstand the aftershock and were sent flying!
At the same time, endless cracks appeared on the huge palm print attack!
It could shatter at any moment!
The Ye family's Ancestor's expression changed. This was his full-power attack, but it could only block this sword intent!
The palm print shattered!
The sword intent pressed forward and slashed at the Ye family's Ancestor!
The Ancestor shouted in a low voice and raised his hands to block the sword intent.
However, at this moment, Ye Qiubai also arrived beside Ye Yan like a ghost and stretched out a finger!
Under Ye Yan's horrified gaze, the space between his brows was directly pierced through!
At this moment, Ye Yan died and his soul dissipated!
