Urban Undying Lord
Chapter 653 - 653 672 Waves Arise

653: Chapter 672: Waves Arise 653: Chapter 672: Waves Arise “Yi, some matters are long stories; let me explain slowly,” Kua Fu said as he approached from behind, patting Yi’s shoulder with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

“Brother, Xiao’e must have someone she likes, right?”

Yi looked on blankly as the Guanghan Fairy disappeared into the distance, a bitter smile curling the corners of his mouth.

He then turned to look at Kua Fu because he was not dull-witted and understood Guanghan Fairy extremely well.

If she did not harbor feelings for someone else, why would she be so distant from him?

“Yi, feelings cannot be forced; let go of this one,” Kua Fu said with a shake of his head, speechless.

In the face of Kua Fu’s advice, Yi’s expression did not show a trace of disturbance, but instead, he looked intently at Kua Fu, his eyes opening and closing with fierce and domineering glints, clearly not as calm internally as he appeared on the surface.

“I really want to know, what kind of being is Xiao’e’s beloved?

Could he be more powerful than my cultivation?”

“Or is it that the other party is so influential that even you, big brother Kua Fu, are reluctant to mention him, fearing that if I cause him trouble, it might implicate our Witch Clan?” Yi asked in a heavy voice, his tone growing increasingly cool.

Hearing Yi’s words, Kua Fu’s face turned red, and his fists clenched slightly as he remembered the humiliation of being defeated by Ye Xuan with a single punch in the Heavenly Court and recalled Ye Xuan’s threatening words.

“Yi, this man is the lord of the Heavenly Court, the new ruler of the Three Realms.

His name is Ye Xuan…”

As Kua Fu recounted the tale, the matter of Ye Xuan and the Guanghan Fairy gradually unfolded, and Yi learned of many of Ye Xuan’s deeds through Kua Fu’s words.

After half a day had passed, as Kua Fu finished recounting Ye Xuan’s deeds, Yi’s eyes lowered and he became eerily silent.

“From a mere Taiyin Mystic Immortal to the peak of Daluo, killing the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother to replace them, and even taking the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden as his wife, with not only Nuwa paying attention but also the backing of the Heavenly Sect Master and the Jie Sect?”

Yi mused to himself before turning to look at Kua Fu, his voice deep, “So, you mean to say, Ye Xuan did not rest after marrying the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden but also married Xiao’e right in front of you, brother, and left you severely injured after your intervention?”

Watching as Yi’s expression settled into calmness, Kua Fu’s heart trembled, knowing Yi’s temperament all too well – he was always eerily calm when truly enraged.

“Yi, although Xiao’e married Ye Xuan, she has not lost her virtue to him, and their marriage is in name only, without the reality of husband and wife.”

Kua Fu paused as he said this, the look in his eyes turning solemn, “Moreover, Ye Xuan is not as weak and easily bullied as the former Jade Emperor.

Under his leadership, the Heavenly Court’s power is expanding rapidly, already showing the might reminiscent of the Ancient Demon Court, and I fear a second Witch Demon calamity…”

“No need to continue, brother.”

Suddenly, Yi cut Kua Fu off without waiting for him to finish, the witch light circling around him as a radiant smile appeared on Yi’s face.

He then looked towards the direction where the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven lay.

“Don’t tell me he’s just at the peak of Daluo; even if he steps into Quasi-Saint, how could he be my match?”

“Just by virtue of him, he expects to revive the Ancient Demon Court and contend with our Witch Clan lineage?

How could he compare with Donghuang Taiyi and Emperor Jun?

This is simply the most laughable joke I have ever heard,” Yi said with a cold voice.

“Yi, you…?”

Gazing upon Yi’s icy visage, Kua Fu knew a crisis was impending.

How could Yi stand idly by when his beloved woman was taken from him?

“Yi, you’ve just emerged from seclusion.

You should first pay your respects to the Ancestor Witch, and not act rashly out of emotion,” Kua Fu urged anxiously.

The Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth had already begun, and Ye Xuan was predestined to be involved in this ordeal.

If the Witch Clan were to be dragged into the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, the prospect was unimaginable to Kua Fu.

“Great Witch, please see reason.

Although Ye Xuan is arrogant and unrestrained, he holds no ill will towards our Witch Clan.

Furthermore, matters of the heart require mutual consent.

I beseech you, Great Witch, not to doom our Witch Clan to eternal damnation for personal reasons.”

Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind Kua Fu, which made Yi turn towards the source of the sound.

A glint of cold light quietly flashed across his eyes as they opened and closed.

“Who are you?” Yi inquired calmly.

“Junior Sword Demon, I pay my respects to the Great Witch, Yi.”

Sword Demon bowed with a gesture of respect, neither servile nor haughty.

As one of the Great Witches among the descendants of the Witch Clan, and with the cultivation level of a Daluo Peak, he was naturally incomparable to a Great Witch from the Primordial Period like Yi.

However, as an important figure within the Witch Clan, he would not allow Yi to do anything that might harm the Clan.

Moreover, at Nuwa’s grand assembly years ago, had Ye Xuan not saved his life, he would have perished at the hands of the Ghost Emperor Shen Tu from the East.

Sword Demon had always kept this favor in his heart and naturally did not wish to see Yi seeking trouble with Ye Xuan.

“I have never seen you before; it seems you are one of the Great Witches from future generations.

Are you criticizing me at this moment?”

Thud—Thud—Thud.

Heaven and Earth quaked, all became silent, except for the sound of their shaking that continued to echo.

Yi took strides towards Sword Demon, and as his eyes opened and closed, they seemed like two great stars in rotation, casting an unimaginable pressure falling upon Sword Demon.

“I dare not.

However, Ye Xuan is the Lord of the Three Realms, and Saints are watching over him.

If the Great Witch insists on being enemies with Ye Xuan, it would place our Witch Clan in opposition to the Heavenly Court.

I, as a junior, naturally do not wish to see the Great Witch embroil our Witch Clan in the conflict of the Three Realms because of personal interests,” Sword Demon said resolutely, his spine never bending, his voice firm.

“Personal interests?”

“Ha ha!”

Suddenly, Yi burst into wild laughter.

His laughter shook the Witch Clan Heaven and Earth violently, with his terrifying power sweeping in all directions, causing some of the less cultivated Witches to cover their ears and groan in pain.

“What do you mean by personal interests?”

Yi’s face twisted fiercely as he stared at Sword Demon, roaring out loud: “At the dawn of the Primordial Land, during the great war between Witches and Demons, I alone battled the ten Demon Suns, wielding a bow and an arrow, and slew the nine Ancient Suns.

Additionally, I fought against Emperor Jun for three days and three nights, only to end up gravely wounded and on the brink of death.

Tell me, why did no one inform me then that it was all for personal interests?”

Heaven and Earth burst with sound, the Witches remained mute, and as Yi’s words fell, everyone in the Witch Clan fell silent, shame flickering in their eyes.

Even Sword Demon’s complexion turned pale, unable to answer Yi’s question.

On the Primordial Land, during the great Witch-Demon Calamity.

Yi, as a peerless powerhouse among the Witches, had made countless contributions to the Witch Clan, slaying numerous members of the Demon Race with his own hands.

An incontrovertible truth and immeasurable merit that no one could criticize him for, not even the Ancient Twelve Ancestor Witches.

“You dare to accuse this Witch, little junior.

Have you ever experienced such a Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth?

Have you ever witnessed our Witch Clan ancestors fight to the death against the Demon Race, bathed in blood?

Do you even know how many brothers fell beside me in that disaster?”
