The two were only a few dozen meters apart. For Zhu Youwen, a master above the Great Heaven level, this distance was nothing. Just as he was closing in on Li Xingyun, a huge figure appeared in front of him and raised a fist bigger than a normal person's head to smash towards Zhu Youwen.

This person was none other than Li Cunxiao, one of the Thirteen Protectors of the Tongwen Hall.

"Hmph!" Seeing Li Cunxiao's huge fist hurtling towards him, Zhu Youwen snorted coldly and swung his fist back.

Then, with a deafening roar, Li Cunxiao, who was almost twice the height of an average person and stronger than an ox, was sent flying backwards, while Zhu Youwen only swayed slightly, but at least his speed stopped.

"Tenth Uncle!"

"Tenth Brother".

Upon seeing Li Cunxiao being knocked away, Zhang Zifan and Li Cunzhong, who ranked ninth in the Tongwen Hall, both shouted at the same time. However, after seeing him get up immediately, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Zhang Zifan looked at Zhu Youwen and said solemnly, "This guy didn't even use his full strength when he killed Zhu Yougui just now."

Li Cunxiao was a master of the Great Heaven Realm, and because of his extraordinary talent, his strength was astonishing. Yet now, when he fought Zhu Youwen head-on, he was at a disadvantage. No, it should be said that he was completely crushed by Zhu Youwen. You can imagine how surprised he was.

Hearing Zhang Zifan's words, Zhu Youwen said disdainfully, "A mere Grand Celestial Realm cultivator, do I need to exert all my strength to kill him? If he weren't my elder brother, I wouldn't bother playing with him for so long. However, it's different for you. I will take care of you very quickly."

After saying that, he flashed and attacked Li Xingyun again.

Seeing him make another move, despite their fear of his strength, everyone around them rushed towards him, trying to overwhelm him and kill him.

Moreover, it wasn't just them; even Meng Po, who had been standing in front of Jiao Lan Palace, made a move. She flashed behind Zhu Youwen and then swung her Illusion Dragon Staff high, smashing it towards the back of Zhu Youwen's head.

At this moment, Zhu Youwen had just turned two undercover agents who had surrounded him into ashes and had no time to dodge. However, his true energy was so strong that he managed to deflect the Illusion Dragon Staff with just his protective true energy. Then, he turned around and struck Meng Po dozens of meters away with a palm.

Seeing Zhu Youwen slaughtering everyone, Shen Ye couldn't help but step out from his hiding place. He truly couldn't sense the aura of the Bad Commander and knew that if he didn't take action, Li Xingyun and the others would probably really die here.

"Yuan Tiangang, Yuan Tiangang, you really dare to gamble!" he thought to himself.

Then, he stepped forward and disappeared from Lu Linxuan's sight in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already standing on a huge dragon-shaped stone pillar in the middle of Jiaolan Palace Square.

At this moment, almost everyone on the field was injured, and dozens of the Bad Guys and Tongwen Hall disciples were killed by Zhu Youwen, who directly beat them to the point of leaving no trace of their bodies.

However, no one, including Zhu Youwen, noticed Shen Ye's appearance and were still fighting desperately.

Just then, Zhu Youwen grabbed Meng Po, who was trying to ambush him again, and was about to pin her to the ground when Shen Ye made his move.

In a flash, he appeared behind Zhu Youwen, placed a hand on Zhu Youwen's shoulder, and said calmly, "Give me some face and stop."

Even with his strength above the Great Celestial Realm and rich combat experience, Zhu Youwen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he sensed someone suddenly appearing behind him, and doing so silently. However, he simply assumed he was distracted and didn't notice, so he threw down Meng Po and slapped her behind him with his backhand.

But his palm strike missed its mark. Just as he raised his hand, Shen Ye had already moved away in an instant and stood in front of Li Xingyun and the others.

"Brother Shen!"

Upon seeing him appear, Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan called out in unison.

Shangguan Yunque let out a long sigh of relief and patted his chest.

As for the others, they looked at him with curiosity, since he rarely appeared in public and not many people knew him.

"Thank you." Meng Po also took this opportunity to escape to Li Xingyun's side, and bowed slightly to the person who saved her life.

"You're welcome." Although Shen Ye wasn't a member of the "appearance association," he still felt a little uncomfortable seeing Meng Po, who was clearly a great beauty, disguised as an old woman, showing him a grateful expression.

He then stopped looking at Meng Po and turned to look at Zhu Youwen.

"who are you?"

After Zhu Youwen's palm strike missed, his surprise deepened. However, considering himself a peerless master, he did not show any unusual expression on his face, only a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

“A dying man has no need to know,” Shen Ye glanced at him and then said with feigned arrogance.

"Arrogant!" Zhu Youwen was furious. His surprise at Shen Ye's strength vanished instantly. He leaped forward and pounced on Shen Ye.

Shen Ye didn't even look at him, but turned to Li Xingyun and the others and said, "Wait a moment, I'll play with him for a bit."

After saying that, he took a step back, dodging Zhu Youwen's angry palm strike. Then he turned around and circled behind Zhu Youwen, mocking, "Too slow. How will you make a living in the martial arts world with such a slow speed?"

"Damn it, damn it, damn it..." Seeing that he had missed again and being mocked by Shen Ye, Zhu Youwen was furious. He didn't care about any moves and turned around to strike Shen Ye with one palm after another.

However, Shen Ye only kept dodging and did not fight back. With each movement, he appeared behind Zhu Youwen at an incredible speed and strange angle.

At the same time, he kept muttering, "Too slow, too slow, too slow, faster, faster, faster..."

"Hiss! This person's strength... is actually so strong."

Li Cunzhong, the ninth elder of Tongwen Hall, looked surprised. The last time he saw Shen Ye was at Jianlu. However, at that time, Shen Ye's opponents were only a few Xuanming Sect Yama Kings of the Great Star Rank, and he could not see his strength at all. Now, seeing that Zhu Youwen, whose strength was far above the Great Heaven Rank, was being toyed with by him, he couldn't help but gasp.

Li Xingyun and the others had witnessed Shen Ye's fight with the Empress at the inn. Unlike Li Cunxiaozhong, they did not show any surprise, but they still gained a new understanding of Shen Ye's strength.

At this moment, Lu Linxuan ran over. She glanced at the two fighting not far away and saw that Shen Ye was handling the situation with ease, so she felt relieved and called out to Li Xingyun, "Senior Brother."

"Junior sister, you've come too." Shangguan Yunque was engaged in combat as soon as he arrived, so he naturally didn't have time to talk to Li Xingyun. He thought that only Shen Ye had come.

Lu Linxuan put her hands on her hips and said with a matter-of-fact expression, "Nonsense, you're my senior brother. If you're in danger, your junior sister can't just stand by and do nothing. Speaking of which, senior brother, when Brother Shen and I heard that you were in trouble, we didn't hesitate at all and rode straight from Fengxiang. We didn't even have time to eat. You'll have to thank us properly when the time comes."

Li Xingyun smiled and nodded: "Of course, of course. When this matter is over, your senior brother will find the best restaurant to treat you to a big meal."

"That's more like it." Lu Linxuan nodded, then turned to look at Shen Ye again.

At this moment, the two fighters were in completely different states of mind. Shen Ye looked relaxed and, although he kept dodging, he didn't even catch his breath. But Ghost King Zhu Youwen was extremely agitated and his breathing was as heavy as a bellows.

"Damn it, all you can do is dodge? If you're so capable, fight me head-on!" Unable to hit Shen Ye, Zhu Youwen's mentality had already collapsed, and he roared heavily.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye stopped, put his hands behind his back, looked at him, and said, "I'm afraid that if I make a move, you'll just fall down."

Zhu Youwen, of course, didn't believe it and roared again, "Then let's try it!"

To be honest, Shen Ye had long lost patience after playing around for so long. He waved to Zhu Youwen and said, "Since you want to die, then I'll give in to you. Come on, I won't hide anymore."

"Then just die."

Immediately, Zhu Youwen roared, gathering all his strength, and his body was enveloped in layers of black energy, transforming into a black dragon that rushed straight towards Shen Ye.

Enraged, he moved with astonishing speed. The black dragon quickly transformed into a black lightning bolt and appeared in front of Shen Ye in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Shen, be careful!"

Even though they had a new understanding of Shen Ye's strength, the onlookers were still a little nervous, their eyes fixed on him.

But Shen Ye simply shook his head at them, then raised a palm and slapped them.

boom!

A torrent of violent true energy poured out from his palm, instantly shattering the black aura surrounding Zhu Youwen. The energy continued its relentless advance, striking Zhu Youwen's chest with tremendous force.

puff!

Zhu Youwen spat out a mouthful of blood mist and flew backward at an even faster speed than when he came. By sheer coincidence, his body crashed into the dragon-shaped stone pillar in the square, breaking the pillar in two.

At this moment, Zhu Youwen, who was lying motionless among a pile of rocks, looked on in disbelief. He said with difficulty to Shen Ye, who was looking at him with his hands behind his back, "How... is this possible? How can my strength above the Great Heavenly Realm be so vulnerable in front of you?"

"Is being above the highest heaven position so great? How could someone like you understand the saying 'there are always people more capable than you' or 'there's always a higher level than you'?" Shen Ye tilted his head slightly and said the same line that Yuan Tiangang said to Zhu Yougui in the original drama, and then he laughed.

No wonder Yuan Tiangang said that, it really felt great!

Chapter 439! Shi Yao

(I drank too much last night, and although I finished writing it, I forgot to post it... so I added it to chapter 438. Readers can go back to the previous chapter to check it out.)

……

However, upon hearing his words, Zhu Youwen could not catch his breath and died with his eyes open.

Shen Ye's palm strike had actually broken all the bones and meridians in his body, but his unwillingness in his heart allowed him to hold on for a while. After hearing Shen Ye's boastful words, he could no longer hold on.

"So people really can die with their eyes open!" Looking at the lifeless Zhu Youwen, Shen Ye curled his lips, then turned to look at the top of Jiao Lan Hall. Just then, three figures swept past there: the Black and White Impermanence who fled when they saw the situation was not good, and the Thief Saint Yun Tao who was holding the Longquan Sword.

But he was too lazy to chase after him. He glanced at him and then looked away, slowly walking towards Li Xingyun.

Seeing him approach, Lu Linxuan immediately stepped forward and hugged his arm, while Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan gave him a smile.

As for the other members of the Bad Guys and Tongwen Hall, they looked at him with solemn expressions. After all, the fact that he killed a master above the Great Heaven Realm with a single palm strike was quite shocking to them.

When he came over, Li Xingyun clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you for saving me, Brother Shen."

"Brother Li, you're too kind. We're brothers." Shen Ye smiled and glanced at Lu Linxuan beside him, then said, "Besides, you're Xuan'er's senior brother, which means you're my brother-in-law. When your brother-in-law is in trouble, as his brother-in-law, I'll definitely help."

“That’s true, haha.” Li Xingyun laughed along.

But then his expression turned serious, and he said, "Since you're calling me brother-in-law now, when are you getting married?"

Is your thinking really that unconventional?

Shen Ye was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Lu Linxuan's face turn red instantly, and he also noticed that there seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

He knew perfectly well why Lu Linxuan was dissatisfied. A few days ago, he had "eaten" Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, but he hadn't "eaten" her yet, which made her feel very unbalanced.

But just as he was about to explain to Li Xingyun, he suddenly sensed someone rapidly approaching them. He immediately turned around and saw a figure appear behind him.

It was none other than Yuan Tiangang, the Bad Guy Commander.

Upon seeing him, Shen Ye frowned immediately, then said irritably, "I've already killed him, what are you doing here?"

"Haha, I just had a sudden urge to come and take a look." The Bad Commander didn't pay attention to his tone, and his voice even sounded a little relaxed and cheerful.

At this moment, the others could see who it was, and the thugs all knelt down and bowed to him.

"Tianyouxing Shi Yao (Tianqiaoxing Shangguan Yunque) pays respects to the Commander-in-Chief."
