Chapter 840: Chapter 828 Clearing the Field

The Green Sun Arrogant Flame is an extraordinarily powerful flame that can only be cultivated after mastering the Green Sun Technique to the peak of the ninth stage, a unique skill of the Green Sun Palace.

Within the entire Green Sun Palace, several martial artists can cultivate the Green Sun Technique, but only Palace Master Zhe Yang possesses the ninth stage of the technique and can advance it to its peak.

Thus, this Green Sun Arrogant Flame has become the signature of Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace.

Whenever the Green Sun Arrogant Flame appears, the figure of Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace is sure to follow.

This information about Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace emerged from Ye Zhen’s mind.

When Ye Zhen first arrived in the True Spirit Domain and fell into the Secret Realm of Demon Souls, he clashed with disciples of the Green Sun Palace and Profound Moon Sect, bearing grudges from the encounter, though at a rather low level. From then on, Ye Zhen began observing information about these two great sects.

These two great sects are powerful, with the Green Sun Palace holding more strength than the Profound Moon Sect, standing as if the leading great sect in the True Spirit Domain. Its disciples act very domineeringly, but at the higher levels, especially Palace Master Zhe Yang, he has the reputation of the Green Flame Gentleman.

This is mainly due to Palace Master Zhe Yang’s fair handling of matters, even when his own sect members are involved, dealing with them without_bias, earning a good reputation in the Jianghu, and in earlier years, he even hinted at becoming the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch.

However, this is just the perception of many ordinary martial artists, whereas powerful and well-informed martial artists, like Shadow Moon Guard Commander Wu Ying, have a different name for Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace!

Hypocrite!

This is the true title the Establishment Kings give to Zhe Yang. His schemes can deceive ordinary martial artists but certainly not those backed by powerful forces like the Establishment Kings.

According to intelligence from the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, Zhe Yang is an extremely shameless person, doing anything for certain benefits, yet in public, he maintains the image of a Green Flame Gentleman.

Because of this, wherever he goes, he has the habit of presiding over justice, always intervening, thanks to his powerful cultivation, which is as advanced as King Zhenshan’s, reaching the Seventh Stage of the Establishment Realm.

Therefore, most of the time, his name as the Leader of the Gentlemen’s Alliance works well, held in high esteem by ordinary martial artists. Even many Establishment Kings have to give him some face.

This explains what Shadow Moon Guard Commander Wu Ying meant by the impossible chaos at the beginning.

Since this Leader of the Gentlemen’s Alliance, Zhe Yang, has arrived, today’s treasure-seeking event will undoubtedly be different, which, with such a presence to enforce control, is indeed a blessing for Red Fire Martial City!

A vast expanse of Green Sun Arrogant Flame swept forth, led by a martial artist in purple clothing, followed by five Establishment Kings trailing behind, somewhat disheveled as they emerged from the void in tremors.

Including the purple-clothed king with cultivation as high as the Seventh Stage of the Establishment Realm, everyone was drenched in sweat, appearing overly exhausted.

Green Sun Palace is quite far from Red Fire Martial City, five to six million miles away, and probably received the news late. Even at full speed, after hearing that the search for treasures would soon begin with the lava at Tiger Mouth Gorge ceasing to spew, they were still over a million miles away.

At a critical moment, Palace Master Zhe Yang had to disregard the expenditure and use a secret technique to shake the void tremendously, relying on the power of the void’s tremor to arrive swiftly.

The foremost purple-clothed martial artist was Palace Master Zhe Yang, though due to well-preserved reasons, an existence of at least a hundred, probably close to two hundred years, still resembled a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

Three strands of green beard fluttered beneath his chin, he wore a righteous crown, his face stern, embodying a righteous demeanor, enabling many at a glance to feel a sense of closeness.

"Greetings, Palace Master Zhe!"

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhe has graced today’s grand event, a great honor indeed!"

"Alliance Leader Zhe’s esteemed presence is an unexpected honor, pardon the lack of welcome!"

"Welcome Zhe......"

.....

With the appearance of Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace, the sky above Tiger Mouth Gorge filled with voices of greetings and good wishes, a stark contrast to the previous atmosphere where all stared angrily whenever an Establishment King arrived!

The popularity of Zhe Yang is truly exceptional. This was just among the Establishment Kings, and he was already so well-received. The more than two hundred Vein Forging Realm martial artists at the periphery didn’t even have the chance to greet him, only able to cup their hands in salute from afar, some simply using divine sense to greet!

This Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace is indeed a capable person; most people would be overwhelmed in such a scenario of simultaneous greetings from dozens or hundreds of people, unintentionally or otherwise, potentially making some feel slighted or neglected.

But with Zhe Yang, it’s completely different. For everyone who greets him, he responds with enthusiasm, having a methodical way of handling people.

Even if it takes turns for ten or more people before it reaches you, he still responds appropriately, making you feel surprisingly honored.

Not just that, even strangers who didn’t greet him, like Ye Zhen, he would still glance with a distant smile, cupping his hands, appearing as if he’s greeting you, yet his demeanor could make Ye Zhen feel as if he had been impolite.

Ye Zhen couldn’t help but admire him. A person like this, regardless of his shamelessness or whether he’s a hypocrite, is destined to be a leader anywhere due to his ability to make everyone feel amicable.

If not for the sheer size of the True Spirit Domain, becoming the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch would be no problem and would certainly earn most people’s sincere admiration!

With Zhe Yang’s arrival, even without the Green Flame Gentleman Zhe Yang needing to do anything himself, several Establishment Kings were already clamoring for Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace to preside over this treasure-seeking event.

Once proposed, many agreed, with more than seventy percent of the Establishment Kings supporting the notion for Palace Master Zhe Yang of the Green Sun Palace to preside over the treasure-seeking affair, leaving the opinions of minor individuals like Ye Zhen irrelevant.

Moreover, the cultivation of a Seventh Stage Establishment King is clearly evident. Even the guests from Tiger Shark Island, led by Tiger King Command, who are ignorant of worldly matters, dare not act rashly and can only comply.

"Thanks to the support of fellow martial artists, it is my honor to host this Tiger Mouth Gorge treasure hunt! However, since I am presiding over this event, I must genuinely consider all fellow martial artists!"

"First......"

"Old Zhe, I’m not here yet, what’s the rush!"

In the void, there came a muffled hum, as if from a mountain-like Establishment King exerting spirit pressure, causing the martial artists present to change their expressions, and Ye Zhen’s expression became extraordinarily sharp.

He was all too familiar with that voice!

It was King Zhenshan Hu Zhen, who was injured and fled three days ago!

"How can such a grand event do without Brother Hu!" When King Zhenshan appeared, there was naturally some pleasantries, but from the moment he appeared, King Zhenshan’s eyes, blazing with fierce light, were fixed on Ye Zhen.

That gaze seemed as if it wished to swallow Ye Zhen alive on the spot, putting Nian Sijing and Wu Ying, who were beside Ye Zhen, under great tension.

In fact, Ye Zhen was also very tense. With his cultivation at the Third Stage of Vein Forging Realm, under the gaze of a Seventh Stage Peak Establishment, no, it should be said the Seventh Stage Establishment King, compared to three days ago, King Zhenshan Hu Zhen’s cultivation had dropped from the Seventh Stage Peak to the Seventh Stage.

Because of that battle, his cultivation had almost forcibly dropped by one stage. No wonder he hated Ye Zhen.

And being stared at by King Zhenshan with a high cultivation, that feeling was no different from a child being stared at by a tiger, feeling extremely tense and uncomfortable.

However, despite the tension, Ye Zhen also saw it clearly.

Though he feared King Zhenshan, King Zhenshan might not necessarily be unafraid of him either, especially his Divine Soul cultivation.

Simply, Ye Zhen did not restrain it; the Fivefold Innate Soul Light of his Divine Soul cultivation aura was fully unleashed, continuously fluctuating and poised to attack.

At the same time, the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, which had been nestled in Ye Zhen’s lap, now perched on his shoulder, subtly exuding the aura of a Mid-Grade Spirit Tier Demon Beast, causing all the Establishment Kings present to take notice.

These were no secrets, so Ye Zhen was not afraid of others knowing.

Seeing this, the fierce light in King Zhenshan Hu Zhen’s eyes grew stronger, yet the fear in his eyes was also more pronounced!

Of course, some people’s expressions changed drastically, such as the disguised Longevity Sect Master Yin Changsheng, who was shocked by the Fivefold Innate Soul Light aura from Ye Zhen.

And the kitten’s cultivation, previously thought to be only a Low-Grade Spirit Tier Demon Beast, surprisingly turned out to be a Mid-Grade Spirit Tier Demon Beast.

This made the strange light in Yin Changsheng’s eyes more vibrant, as this was equivalent to two Establishment Kings.

After this turmoil, once Red Fire Martial City stabilizes, should Ye Zhen return to Qinglan Martial City, the power of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect will completely suppress the Longevity Sect.

"It seems that if there’s a chance, I must......" The eyes of Longevity Sect Master Yin Changsheng suddenly turned sinister.

"Since I am hosting, the first matter I have to address is to ask all the Vein Forging Realm martial artists present to leave. This treasure hunt is not something you can participate in!"

With these words, the faces of over two hundred Vein Forging Realm martial artists at the periphery immediately changed, and some even loudly protested.

"Each of you present has reached where you are through arduous cultivation! Now, gathered here, are a total of forty-seven Establishment Kings, over twenty of whom have cultivation levels above the Fourth Stage of the Establishment Realm!

If you wish to participate in the treasure hunt, I won’t stop you!

However, with so many Establishment Kings here, I do not have the ability to restrain them. If your glorious lives end here, don’t blame me for not warning you!

Even I dare bring only a few supreme elders here, not a single elder or disciple under me. Decide for yourselves!"

As Zhe Yang’s words fell, each Establishment King present glanced menacingly all around, making the threat clear as day.

If anyone dared to stay, the message was unmistakable - expect to be surrounded and cleared by the Establishment Kings here!

In view of this, the faces of over two hundred Vein Forging Realm martial artists around changed dramatically. Meanwhile, Zhe Yang, known as the Green Flame Gentleman, continued with kind words, essentially saying I’m considering it for you if it wasn’t for my hosting, perhaps half of you would stay here forever!

Half a quarter-hour later, the over two hundred Vein Forging Realm martial artists at the perimeter were completely gone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the clearing is complete. Now let’s discuss......"

Just as Zhe Yang, who hosted the treasure hunt, was about to speak, King Zhenshan Hu Zhen suddenly interrupted, "Hold on, the clearing isn’t finished yet! There is still a little Vein Forging Realm brat over there who hasn’t been chased away!"

As King Zhenshan pointed out, the gaze of more than forty Establishment Kings present turned to Ye Zhen! (To be continued.
