Chapter 66 – Madman! He is a madman!
Chapter 66 – Madman! He is a madman!
Before the ruins of a collapsed building, the flames illuminated the area in a crimson glow.
Fu Yuan and Jiang Gong stood there, looking down at a corpse on the ground.
The chest of this corpse was completely pierced through, and even the heart had been shredded by Sword Qi.
Especially the face of the corpse, which even in death bore an expression of fear and disbelief.
It was as if, before dying, it had seen something unimaginable.
As if unable to believe that it had perished just like that!
“It’s Bai Tingyue, no doubt!”
Fu Yuan looked at the corpse on the ground, his voice trembling.
Jiang Gong seemed to be in a dream, muttering to himself, “How could this be?
Bai Tingyue was a 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm Cultivator—who could kill him?
What exactly happened at this Bai Family base?”
“And over ten Bai Family Elders were also slaughtered…”
Fu Yuan’s face turned pale as he looked into the distance, where he saw the corpses of over ten Bai Family Elders.
At that moment, from a pile of rubble not far away, there was a rustling sound as a hand pushed aside the debris and extended outward.
A faint voice sounded from beneath the rubble.
“Someone’s still alive!”
Fu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed.
Without further thought, he and Jiang Gong rushed over at top speed.
Upon arriving, Fu Yuan waved his hand, and a powerful surge of energy swept away the rubble burying the person, revealing a figure covered in blood, coughing violently.
But when this person saw Fu Yuan and the other, they seemed to go mad, screaming in fear, “Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!”
Ignoring the sharp rubble, they scrambled backward repeatedly.
“Don’t be afraid, we are Elders from Xuanming Pavilion. Tell us, what exactly happened?”
Fu Yuan rushed forward, grabbing the person and urgently asking.
He was truly curious—what exactly happened at the Bai Family base to result in such a tragic scene?
Only after the person clearly saw that Fu Yuan was not the one they feared did they slowly calm down, but their eyes remained vacant, and they kept muttering,
“Madman! He’s a devil! Yes… a devil!”
“Who?”
Fu Yuan shouted, growing impatient. The person’s words were unclear, but he gathered that it seemed only one person had slaughtered the entire Bai Family base.
But how was that possible?
Who could be so powerful?
Not only killing Bai Tingyue but also slaughtering over ten 3rd Revolution Elders of the Bai Family?
Could it be a 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm Expert?!
“Ye… Ye Sheng!”
“It’s him! He’s a madman… a madman!”
The Bai Family disciple screamed frantically, then grabbed his own hair fiercely, as if going mad. “Why did our Bai Family provoke him?
Why did we provoke a madman!”
Bang!
Fu Yuan threw the person to the ground, his face filled with disbelief, as if he had heard something utterly fantastical.
“Ye Sheng? How is that possible?”
Fu Yuan was dumbfounded!
Jiang Gong, standing nearby, was also stunned. “Was it Ye Sheng’s doing?
Isn’t he just a minor 2nd Revolution Cultivator? How could he single-handedly slaughter the entire Bai Family base?
And also…”
Jiang Gong looked down at the corpse of ‘Bai Tingyue’ on the ground and said, “Bai Tingyue was a 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm Cultivator—how could he be a match for him?
Could it be… he also stepped into the 3rd Revolution Realm?
But that doesn’t make sense either. How could someone who just entered the 3rd Revolution Realm be a match for an Expert like Bai Tingyue?”
Jiang Gong felt his mind couldn’t keep up. There were too many things he couldn’t understand, and everything before him felt surreal!
“No! No… That madman possesses the combat power of the 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm! He… he’s too strong!”
At this moment, the surviving disciple of the Bai Family spoke as if possessed, his face twisted with terror, eyes filled with intense fear.
It seemed he could still see the figure in white robes, holding a blood-dripping longsword, moving through the Bai Family base with an invincible presence.
Even Elder Bai Tingyue could hardly withstand a single exchange in his hands!
“Ye Sheng is at the 3rd Revolution… Invincible Realm? What nonsense are you spouting?”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yuan kicked him, his face full of disbelief.
Ye Sheng was clearly a 2nd Revolution Cultivator. Even if he had luckily survived the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, he would have only just stepped into the 3rd Revolution Realm. How could he have become a 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm existence so quickly?
“Wait!” Fu Yuan suddenly seemed to remember something. “Brother Jiang Gong, do you remember that young man in white robes we encountered earlier?”
“I remember, why?”
Jiang Gong looked puzzled. He still believed the two of them were just passersby, drawn to take a look at the Bai Family base. What was so strange about that?
Fu Yuan recalled the face of the young man in white robes and quickly operated his Communication Bracelet.
Whoosh!
A portrait appeared before the two of them.
It was exactly Ye Sheng’s face!
Seeing this, both their expressions changed instantly!
The person in the portrait was identical to the young man in white robes they had just encountered.
It was the same person!
“It really was him! Ye Sheng! We ran into him!”
Fu Yuan’s face instantly turned deathly pale!
Especially Jiang Gong, who was completely stunned. He felt as if he had narrowly escaped death.
The two of them had actually run straight into Ye Sheng, who had just slaughtered the entire Bai Family base.
Jiang Gong swallowed hard and said, “Brother Fu Yuan, thank you just now! Otherwise… we probably wouldn’t be alive right now!”
Jiang Gong was still shaken.
Just now!
He had almost revealed that they were from the Xuanming Pavilion.
Everyone knew that after the incident with the Bai Family, the relationship between Ye Sheng and the Xuanming Pavilion was not harmonious.
Who knew if Ye Sheng, upon learning their identities, might have casually slaughtered them both?
Fu Yuan smiled bitterly, also feeling a lingering fear.
Earlier, he had sensed the tangible Killing Intent emanating from Ye Sheng’s body, which prompted him to conceal their identities on a whim.
Now, looking back, he had done the right thing!
His quick thinking had clearly saved both their lives.
Otherwise, they would likely have been killed by Ye Sheng to vent his anger!
“Let’s go, this is no place to linger!”
Fu Yuan glanced at the Bai Family base, now engulfed in flames, and spoke with a serious expression.
“Right, this place gives me the creeps!”
Jiang Gong shuddered. The Resentment Qi here was too heavy.
Just as the two were about to take to Aerial Flight, Fu Yuan suddenly stopped.
“Wait, let’s take this surviving Bai Family disciple with us!” Fu Yuan said.
Jiang Gong looked puzzled. “Why bring him? This kid has already been scared out of his mind. Are we bringing a madman back?”
Fu Yuan said seriously, “Both of us have been here. Without a witness to prove that this matter has nothing to do with us, I’m afraid we won’t be able to explain it clearly when we return!”
As he spoke, Fu Yuan looked at the Bai Family disciple. “Take him back and hand him over to the Bai Family. That way, the Bai Family will know this matter has nothing to do with us—it was all Ye Sheng’s doing alone!
Only then can we distance ourselves from this incident.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Gong thought it made sense. “Then let’s bring him along!”
With that, he stepped forward and lifted the surviving Bai Family disciple from the ground.
After taking the Bai Family disciple along, the two of them rose into Aerial Flight and hurriedly departed from the area.
However, on their way back, both were preoccupied with heavy thoughts.
They knew that once this matter spread, it would inevitably cause a tremendous uproar!
At the very least… Ye Sheng stepping into the 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm was already an extraordinary piece of news.
Who knew how the Upper Echelon of Xuanming Pavilion would react upon learning of Ye Sheng’s Heaven-Defying achievement?
After all, it was they who had treated Ye Sheng as a disposable Chess Piece, casting him aside without a second thought…
