Chapter 525: 524

Ye Tianchen saved Qing Hu. In such a situation, he couldn’t possibly not save Qing Hu, he absolutely couldn’t just watch the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves kill Qing Hu.

Ye Tianchen was also aware of the strength possessed by these six members of the Demon Mercenaries. Seeing the severe injuries Qing Hu sustained, through his Superpower Perception, Ye Tianchen could ascertain the formidable nature of these six people. However, Ye Tianchen was someone who loved challenges. In his dictionary, there was no such phrase as "admit defeat." The stronger the opponent, the more he wanted to fight because such battles not only stimulated the continuous surge of superpower within his body, attacking boundaries, but also provided him with copious amounts of real battle experience. This type of practical experience was extremely precious, often gained through life-and-death battles against formidable experts.

With a swift slash, Fierce Wolf suddenly unleashed a deadly move. Originally tens of meters away from Ye Tianchen, he suddenly appeared behind him in an instant. The strange great saber in his hand chopped directly towards Ye Tianchen’s head, intending to split him into two halves.

At that time, Ye Tianchen was talking to Qing Hu, with his back towards Fierce Wolf; he simply had no time to react and prevent the attack. Qing Hu, having seen the whole thing clearly, bellowed a warning and attempted to rush forward to save Ye Tianchen, but with his severe injuries, he couldn’t possibly stop Fierce Wolf’s assault quickly.

Crack!

Just when everyone thought Ye Tianchen was definitely going to be split into two halves, even Fierce Wolf himself was extremely confident, believing no one could dodge his blade at such close range, as indeed no one had ever dodged such a close strike from Fierce Wolf in past battles.

But, to everyone’s astonishment, just as Fierce Wolf’s blade nearly cleaved Ye Tianchen’s head, Ye Tianchen, without turning his head, backhandedly grabbed Fierce Wolf’s wrist in an instant, immediately stopping Fierce Wolf’s saber-swinging right hand from advancing any further.

This action astounded Qing Hu, and shocked the remaining Blood Wolf and others. This Chinese man, barely into his twenties, was so formidable. Fierce Wolf among the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves was notoriously violent, not because the others lacked a killing intent like Fierce Wolf’s, but because Fierce Wolf’s combat power was very strong, especially with his great saber, named Soul Slash. Everything in front of the Soul Stealing Great Saber would turn to dust. The Soul Stealing Great Saber itself weighed hundreds of pounds; despite Fierce Wolf making it seem easy to wield, a normal person would definitely not be able to handle it, not to mention swinging it down—it could crush a person by its weight alone, let alone being cleaved by it.

"This saber is good, but it’s just not suitable for you to use!" said Ye Tianchen as he turned around, his right hand firmly gripping Fierce Wolf’s wrist. He was joking— the Soul Stealing Great Saber was hanging right above his head; if he relaxed just a little, it would come chopping down, and that would indeed split him into two halves.

"Hmph, you’re still too green!"

Fierce Wolf sneered with a hint of a cold smile, and he unexpectedly loosened his right hand. The Soul Stealing Great Saber still came slashing down towards Ye Tianchen’s head with undiminished force. Ye Tianchen frowned, slapping the blade of the Soul Stealing Great Saber with his left hand, sending it flying away. But at that moment, Fierce Wolf’s left fist heavily slammed into Ye Tianchen’s head, sending him flying hundreds of meters away, directly smashing a large tree.

Boom thud!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tianchen and Fierce Wolf had fought several rounds, each move deadly. Qing Hu and the other members of the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves were also internally shocked; both men were incredibly powerful, especially Ye Tianchen, whose strength was beyond what Qing Hu and others had anticipated. At only around twenty years old, he was already so formidable. If he continued to develop his cultivation like this, what level could he reach?

Ultimately, Ye Tianchen was still sent flying by Fierce Wolf’s left hook, smashing another large tree and kicking up dense clouds of dust and smoke. Fierce Wolf’s mouth curled into a disdainful smile. Ye Tianchen’s strength had indeed surprised him, but he was still no match for Fierce Wolf—Fierce Wolf was confident of that.

"It looks like your reinforcements aren’t that strong, now it’s your turn to meet your demise!" Fierce Wolf said indifferently, glancing at Qing Hu.

Qing Hu had already gotten up from the ground; despite such severe injuries, being able to stand was indeed a surprise to Fierce Wolf and the others. They had all seen Qing Hu’s strength. As for Ye Tianchen, they felt that although he had some skills, he was not yet qualified to battle anyone among them.

Blood Wolf, still wielding the Shadow Dual Blades, walked towards Qing Hu. He too had been drawn by the battle between Fierce Wolf and Ye Tianchen; not expecting this young Chinese man to have such capabilities. Fierce Wolf’s rapid ferocious attacks were all blocked by him, and now seeing Ye Tianchen knocked away by a punch, he was either dead or severely injured. Naturally, he was going to attack Qing Hu, whose strength was formidable; they definitely would not leave a lingering threat.

"Your fist doesn’t seem to have enough strength. Is it lacking exercise?"

"Hmm?"

Fierce Wolf scowled fiercely upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s voice and looked to the right, only to see Ye Tianchen had already appeared at the shattered tree, still bearing a harmless smile as he looked at him. There was a punch mark on the left side of his face, but there were no serious injuries, let alone death, which made Fierce Wolf clench his fists tightly. His punch had a force of at least several hundred kilograms, and from such a close distance, to swing a punch that sent a man flying was a force of at least a thousand kilograms, yet this Ye Tianchen wasn’t killed or even seriously injured; it was unbelievable.

"It seems your fist can’t kill me, better use your knife, your knife isn’t bad," Ye Tianchen walked towards Fierce Wolf, smiling as he spoke.

For the first time, Fierce Wolf was being scorned like this. As a member of the Seven Wolves Demon Mercenaries, he was used to facing and overcoming adversaries; never had anyone survived unscathed from his punch. Ye Tianchen was the first. How formidable was this young man’s body?

"Is that so? It seems you do have some strength, but it’s a pity that my Soul Stealing Great Saber intends to split you in half," Fierce Wolf said, staring intently at Ye Tianchen.

"Then bring it on, what’s with all the nonsense?" Ye Tianchen said with a dismissive expression.

This statement nearly made Fierce Wolf pass out from anger. Even Qing Hu, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time. Ye Tianchen, seemingly unreliable, managed both his words and actions very skilfully. He talked the most, and now when Fierce Wolf spoke, he criticized Fierce Wolf for being too talkative, nearly driving Fierce Wolf to explosion with fury.

"Seeking death, I shall fulfill you!"

Fierce Wolf roared and dashed towards Ye Tianchen like lightning, reaching him in less than half a second, and swiftly swung his saber down at Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen, too, was startled. He might have spoken easily, but he was very vigilant. His quick response had earlier resulted in being sent flying by a punch from Fierce Wolf. Given how powerful Fierce Wolf was, if it weren’t for his own strong physique, he might have been seriously injured. Thus, he quickly parried when Fierce Wolf’s powerful saber slash came at him.

Clang!

With the appearance of the Taie Sword, the Soul Stealing Great Saber in Fierce Wolf’s hand was instantly resisted; neither side seemed to have the upper hand in this clash. Ye Tianchen felt Fierce Wolf’s strength even more, and the Soul Stealing Great Saber was also no ordinary weapon. The Taie Sword, as a Power Sword, carried a formidable pressure with each swing, something neither ordinary people nor weapons could withstand. Yet, the Great Saber not only resisted, but also showed no signs of weakness. The origin of this Soul Stealing Great Saber was likely extraordinary as well.

On Earth, Ye Tianchen was aware that it wasn’t just the ancient Chinese Ten Ancient Swords; there were also many mystical weapons in other places, hugely powerful and enveloped in mystique. It wasn’t as if owning the Ten Ancient Swords made one invincible; otherwise, there wouldn’t be any role for other legendary divine weapons, nor would such legends persist.

Ye Tianchen and Fierce Wolf embarked on an intense battle, each wielding weapons of unusual origins: one the Taie Sword, the other the Soul Stealing Great Saber. The fight was extremely fierce, and Blood Wolf also moved against Qing Hu on the side, the power of the Shadow Dual Blades being immense. Now severely injured, Qing Hu could only keep dodging; he no longer had much fighting ability, indeed fighting two members of the Seven Wolves Demon Mercenaries by himself was quite challenging.

Clang!

Qing Hu blocked the Shadow Blade in Blood Wolf’s left hand, but the blade in his right hand had nearly reached Qing Hu’s Sun Temple, almost piercing through his skull. Blood Wolf’s mouth curled into a smile, while Qing Hu knew he might die right there; in such a situation, battling against such monstrous opponents like the Seven Wolves Demon Mercenaries was almost certainly fatal.

Boom!

Just as Blood Wolf’s Shadow Blade in his right hand was about to pierce Qing Hu’s Sun Temple, a figure rushed forward and kicked at Blood Wolf. Blood Wolf, whose strength was not to be underestimated, managed to quickly counter with his blade, pushing back the attacker and being sent flying several meters away, regaining his balance. Unfortunately, he missed the best opportunity to kill Qing Hu.

"Are you alright?" the newcomer asked, not even glancing at Qing Hu.

"Still not dead. This time you can go all out; they are the Seven Wolves Demon Mercenaries!" Qing Hu said with a faint smile.
