Rebirth of the Peak Young Master
Chapter 143 Unthinkable

Chapter 143: Chapter 143 Unthinkable

Skyfire!

That is the strongest technique from the Red Flame True Scripture, the exclusive martial art of Gui Xuzi as the Sect Leader of the True Essence Sect!

It has always been Gui Xuzi’s ultimate trump card!

But now, witnessing Ye Fei unleashing it, how could he not be utterly shocked, how could he possibly believe his eyes!

As for the elders of the True Essence Sect, they had long since been terrified senseless by the blazing inferno before their eyes. One by one, they collapsed to the ground, completely losing the will to fight!

At that moment, Ye Fei, engulfed in flames, floated in mid-air before everyone. If Gui Xuzi earlier seemed like the Fire God incarnate, then Ye Fei now was nothing short of the Fire Ancestor!

"Surrender or die!" Ye Fei said coldly, his gaze indifferent as he looked at Gui Xuzi.

Those words mirrored exactly what Gui Xuzi had once arrogantly said to Ye Fei!

Hearing Ye Fei using his own words to throw them back in his face, Gui Xuzi’s entire body trembled. He didn’t know if it was due to rage or fear.

"Sect Leader!"

All the elders immediately turned towards Gui Xuzi.

"Master!"

Su Miaoling also looked over instantly.

Because Gui Xuzi was their belief, their spiritual pillar. Faced with Ye Fei’s demand, they could only place their hopes on the Sect Leader, who had never let them down before.

But this time, their hopes were destined to crumble!

For Gui Xuzi was not facing just anyone; he was facing Ye Fei!

Ye Fei, the peerless Demon King who dominated heaven and earth!

"I..."

Gui Xuzi wanted to refuse, but looking into Ye Fei’s eyes, he found himself utterly unable to speak the words.

In the end, he sighed deeply and said, "The True Essence Sect... surrenders!"

Thud!

Everyone in the True Essence Sect fell to their knees in despair upon hearing Gui Xuzi’s words.

Even Su Miaoling felt as though something within her had collapsed with a deafening crash.

Looking at Ye Fei, who floated in the sky holding everyone’s fate in his hands, and at Gui Xuzi, once their symbol of faith but now bowing his head in submission,

Su Miaoling’s heart trembled violently.

"He... he really subdued the entire True Essence Sect by himself! He... he wasn’t being arrogant after all; he truly possesses this unfathomable power!"

Shangguan Family.

Shangguan Jingyun stood calmly in the backyard at this moment, while Shangguan Hong and the other masters of the Shangguan family stood to the side.

No one knew how much time had passed.

Suddenly, Shangguan Jingyun opened his eyes and threw a punch.

In an instant, a fierce wind howled, and before Shangguan Jingyun, a massive boulder three times the height of a man shook violently before crumbling into powder, scattering into the sky.

"Congratulations, Family Head! Felicitations, Family Head!"

Seeing this, Shangguan Hong immediately exclaimed with excitement, "Family Head, have you regained your strength?"

"Heh, not entirely, but I’ve reached the level of Half-step Innate! Now, having rebuilt my foundation, I’m confident I can reclaim my Innate level within three years and even go a step further!" Shangguan Jingyun said with a joyful laugh.

How could he not be delighted? How could he not be ecstatic?

He had once thought he was doomed to remain a cripple, but now he had regained his strength. If not for his age and maturity, Shangguan Jingyun might have shouted in exhilaration.

Seeing Shangguan Jingyun in such spirits, Shangguan Hong also felt elated. However, he quickly dismissed the others, then stepped forward and whispered, "Family Head, now that you’ve regained your strength, do you have any plans in mind?"

"Plans? What plans would I have?" Shangguan Jingyun asked, puzzled.

Grinding his teeth, Shangguan Hong replied, "During the time when you lost your strength, those forces that once submitted to us began to resurface one by one, and our Shangguan family’s power was slowly devoured by them!"

"Of course, I am well aware!"

Hearing this, Shangguan Jingyun let out a cold laugh. "Though I may not yet be Innate, my previous foundation and Half-step Innate strength will suffice! It’s time for them to pay the price!"

"Yes, make them pay! Perhaps even..."

At this point, Shangguan Hong suddenly stopped, then looked at Shangguan Jingyun and spoke in a deep voice, "Perhaps once you advance further, Family Head, we could ensure the true culprit behind our family’s tribulations pays the ultimate price!"

The true culprit?

Hearing this, Shangguan Jingyun’s heart began pounding fiercely!

Who else could be responsible for the Shangguan family’s current decline but Ye Fei?

Yet, thinking of Ye Fei’s godlike methods – crippling his cultivation with a wave of the hand and restoring it with another – Shangguan Jingyun couldn’t help but swallow hard and said, "Hong’er, be cautious with your words!"

"Family Head, I’m only thinking of the Shangguan family! If you reach another breakthrough, you might very well face Ye Fei in combat! Besides, he’s currently challenging the True Essence Sect. For all we know, he may lose his life there. Even if he survives, he’ll likely be gravely injured. At that time, you could seize the opportunity to overtake him and bring him down for the humiliation he brought upon the Shangguan family!" Shangguan Hong said grimly.

Though Shangguan Hong had outwardly appeared submissive to Ye Fei ever since Shangguan Jingyun’s defeat,

in truth, he harbored deep hatred for Ye Fei!

Ye Fei, this monstrous prodigy who had risen at just seventeen or eighteen years of age, crushing Shangguan Jingyun, had rendered someone like him, once a famed young master in all of East China, utterly insignificant!

It had trampled on his pride and left it in the dust!

Shangguan Jingyun could see through Shangguan Hong’s thoughts clearly.

But just as he was about to speak, a member of the Shangguan family rushed in with a sealed letter in hand and shouted, "Family Head! An urgent letter!"

"An urgent letter? Let me see!"

Shangguan Jingyun took the letter with a look of confusion. Upon opening it, his face instantly turned deathly pale.

"Family Head, what’s the matter?" Shangguan Hong asked, puzzled by Shangguan Jingyun’s reaction.

Shangguan Jingyun’s expression flickered, and after a long sigh, he finally said, "Yang Tian... Yang Tian has defeated Gui Xuzi with absolute strength. The True Essence Sect... has surrendered!"

"Defeated Gui Xuzi? This... how is this possible?"

Shangguan Hong exclaimed in disbelief, "Not to mention the countless masters within the True Essence Sect, Ye Fei went alone! Besides, isn’t Gui Xuzi the True Spirit Dharma King? Even if Ye Fei is an Innate Martial King, it’s impossible for him to defeat Gui Xuzi, the True Spirit Dharma King!"

"But it’s a fact."

Shangguan Jingyun sighed again, looking at Shangguan Hong with the utmost seriousness. "Hong’er, regarding what you just said, never bring it up again. Don’t even think about it! Or you’ll invite calamity upon the Shangguan family!"

"Calamity? But... but even if Ye Fei defeated Gui Xuzi, once you advance further, you might..."

"Enough!"

Before Shangguan Hong could finish, Shangguan Jingyun cut him off sharply. "Haven’t I made myself clear enough? If you disobey again, don’t blame me for being merciless!"

"I..." Shangguan Hong lowered his head in frustration, but his eyes were filled with resentment.

Shangguan Jingyun, seeing this, shook his head and said softly, "According to the information, Ye Fei is likely... not just an Innate Martial King but also a Magic User, with power nearing that of a Holy Spirit God!"

"Holy Spirit... God..." Shangguan Hong was left standing there in utter shock.
