Early the next morning.

Ye Chen and Uncle Hei separated from the inn where they were staying, Uncle Hei went north to see an old friend who had not been seen for many years, while Ye Chen traveled west in the direction of Tianya Inn.

The three elders also gathered their disciples early, and today is June 18, which is also the last day of the competition.

When they came, there were twenty-two people, but now there is one less, and all the disciples also comforted Qi Jingjing one after another, "Senior sister, don't blame yourself too much, isn't it okay for Ye Chen to be in charge?" Chang Fei is also innocent."

Qi Jingjing didn't reply, but stood quietly alone, not knowing what she was thinking.

At this time, Ye Chen came over, and all the disciples shouted in unison, "Master", but Qi Jingjing only bowed slightly to Ye Chen.

The third elder smiled informally, "With you as the head of the team, I can easily lead the team, old man, you can go, I won't accompany you young people." ”

Ye Chen smiled bitterly, many of them used to be his senior brothers, but now they regard themselves as their heads, and they always feel a little weird, but since they have taken over this errand, they must be done well.

Ye Chen Zhengse said, "Since you are ready, let's go, I hope you can all have a good result." ”

…………

In the south of Aoba Castle, there is a huge martial arts arena here, the three stairs are full of people, enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, the east is a high platform, where there are only three steps and a few more than 100 seats, the highest third staircase is only a golden luxury seat, the seat armrest is carved with a dragon head, the second staircase is where some officials are, and the third floor is where these contestants are.

When Ye Chen and his group came to the outside of the venue, they saw a table on the wall, and each table had two portraits pasted on it, each with its own name and odds.

Ye Chen glanced at it, there were only a few people in front of the rest of the table, but there was a long queue in front of the third table, looking at the portrait, one of them was not Changming on his side, and the other portrait had the words "Liu Yikun" written on it, and the odds were exaggerated to 0.1 to 1...... And Changming's odds are a bit outrageous, 100 to 1......

Changming is the strongest disciple of the Yunyin Sect this time, and now he is twenty-three years old, and his strength is not weak, how can there be such exaggerated odds, Ye Chen came relatively late and did not inquire about the strength list of the participants this time, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Changming also saw this scene, his face had turned into a bitter gourd, and he said helplessly, "Liu Yikun is twenty-two years old, and he is a disciple of the Chongguang Sect ......."

Ye Chen faintly felt bad in his heart...... If Changming loses in the first game, then the strongest Yunyin faction behind is only a realm sevenfold, don't say the top three, I'm afraid the top five will be difficult, such a result can only be the bottom of the three major factions.

Before Ye Chen could think more, Chang Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Jiang Peng is twenty-four years old, and the realm is ninefold, and the disciple of the Songhua Sect ......"

…………

Ye Chen's face suddenly turned iron blue, "I'm ...... what do you want to say...... But when the words came to his mouth and he swallowed them back, isn't this a naked shame? No wonder the three elders were so happy after reading the letter, and immediately agreed with themselves as the leader, and proposed to ask Ye Chen to lead the team, and said that "young people should have more experience."

It turned out that there was such a big pit buried here, Ye Chen really wanted to pull that old guy over now and scold him, "This bad old man...... It's really bad. ”

Qi Jingjing stepped forward and said ashamedly, "I'm sorry, senior brother, I forgot about the situation here and couldn't tell you in advance, or ...... Why don't you go back too? ”

Although Ye Chen is the head of the house, Qi Jingjing has developed a habit of calling him senior brother since childhood, and neither Ye Chen nor she noticed anything wrong with this, and what Changming thought was that they were a couple anyway, and sooner or later they would be together, what was the difference between how they called each other?

Ye Chen saw that Qi Jingjing was still a little uneasy, how could he blame her, and shook his head with a wry smile, "It's all here, wouldn't it be more embarrassing to be a deserter?" Let's go, if you come, you will be safe, and I will live when the sky falls."

The group stepped on the first step of the high platform, but the other group had already arrived, and there were also about 20 people.

Changming whispered to Ye Chen from behind, "The old man in yellow is the third elder of the Chongguang faction, and sitting next to him is Liu Yikun, their Chongguang faction is the most aimed at us, you have to be careful."

"Oh, what about the Songhua faction?" Ye Chen asked.

Chang Ming said, "The Songhua faction has a good relationship with us, and they also hate the third elder of the Chongguang faction. ”

Ye Chen nodded to show that he understood, the old man in yellow looked fat and looked very ordinary, his eyes were closed, the temperature around him was obviously much higher, obviously he was in the Fire Heavenly Realm, and Liu Yikun was dressed in a blue robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, he was very arrogant, he looked at Ye Chen's gaze, especially when he saw Changming, there was a trace of disdain in his eyes.

The obese Third Elder opened his small eyes and looked at Ye Chen, and said with a contemptuous smile: "You Yunyin Sect have this backbone? The elder hid and didn't dare to come out, but he found a little baby to lead the team, and this face was really thrown on the dog. ”

The disciples of the Yunyin Sect turned red with anger when they heard this, but they didn't dare to contradict it.

There was anger between Ye Chen's eyebrows, and he said coldly, "If the Chongguang faction doesn't mind, we can have an extra game." A faint stream of water surrounded him, as if ready to strike at any moment.

The people present in the Heaven Realm ...... were all shocked, whether it was the Chongguang Sect or those scattered forces, and even the disciples of the Cloud Yin Sect behind Ye Chen were also shocked, and they could even stuff an apple into their mouths.

When the three elders announced that Ye Chen was the head of the sect, some people were not convinced, the three elders only said "He is stronger than all of you", originally thought that this strong represented the ninth level of the earth realm, but he never thought that this strength was the difference between heaven and earth, in fact, the three elders could not be blamed, the letter written by the great elder only said that Ye Chen was now the strongest among all the disciples, and the three elders did not dare to think about the heavenly realm at all.

The faces of the three elders of the Chongguang Sect turned pale, if Liu Yikun was a genius, he had cultivated to the ninth level of the Earth Realm at the age of twenty-two, but he wanted to reach the Heavenly Realm...... If there is no chance, I am afraid it will be difficult for another twenty years, and this kid in front of him ...... It looks very young, just seventeen or eighteen years old, seventeen or eighteen years old...... Wicked? Thinking of this, he stood up and bowed to Ye Chen's side, and said with a smile: "Everything is a misunderstanding, just a small joke, little brother, don't take it to heart." ”

A middle-aged beautiful woman in a black dress led more than twenty people, clapping her hands and chuckling and walking from behind Ye Chen, "The Yunyin Sect is really hidden! I don't know what this little brother is called? ”

Ye Chen retracted the flow of water, hugged his fists and said, "Ye Chen, the head of the Xiayun Yin Sect, must be an elder of the Songhua Sect."

The beautiful woman shook her head, "I am the head of the Songhua faction, Senior Brother Ye can call me Senior Sister Huaqing, let's go sit in front and stay away from this dead fat man." ”

The three elders of the Chongguang Sect stood in place with a slight embarrassment, and the two factions walked in front of him and ignored him, which made him even more embarrassed, his face became gloomy, and a vicious thought was brewing.

The Yunyin faction and the Songhua faction each sat down near the second ladder, and Hua Qing chatted with Ye Chen intentionally or unintentionally, obviously trying to get a good relationship between the two factions, "Senior Brother Ye Chen is really a hero, he can reach the heavenly realm at a young age, and it is unlimited in the future!" I don't think I've been able to step into the realm of heaven yet. ”

At this time, Ye Chen asked, "I don't know which one is Senior Brother Jiang Peng?" ”

In an instant, the scene was cold to the freezing point, and the needle drop could be heard.

Songhua sent a thin disciple to Ye Chen with a wry smile and arched his hand: "Uncle Shi, don't dare to mess with the seniority, you are a senior brother, Jiang Peng can't afford it!" ”

Ye Chen was suddenly embarrassed.

Seeing this, Hua Qing made a round, asked Jiang Peng to retreat first, and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Ye Chen, are you the head of the family in danger?" ”

Ye Chen smiled bitterly: "Less than two days." ”

…………

"Knock knock knock......" The earth-shattering drum sounded, and the field suddenly fell silent.

On the second ladder, a middle-aged man in a black robe got up, flew into the arena with his hands on his back, the man's voice was not loud, but it still resounded throughout the venue, obviously there was a wind formation in the arena, "Hello everyone, I am today's referee, I am Zhou Donghai, first of all, I would like to invite our Royal Highness the King to take a seat." ”

After Zhou Donghai finished speaking, he took the lead in paying attention to the highest staircase on the high platform and made a salute of holding his chest and chin with one hand, and the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people in the field followed, Ye Chen also looked at it, and he was also curious about what the king looked like.

At the foot of the highest staircase, the king was dressed in a golden dragon robe, a crown on his head, and golden boots on his feet, and was about to walk up the steps, but at this time, there was no one in front of him, and the space was like a calm lake, and a drop of water rippled into it, and two people appeared in front of him out of thin air. A middle-aged man in black was a little cold, and another old man in black with a white beard and hair, the old man's robe was embroidered with a green dragon, and the king quickly knelt down and said, "Meet Taizu." ”

"Go back!" The old man's tone was flat, but with an irresistible majesty.

"Yes," the king replied in obedience, and got up and walked back.

If Ye Chen saw it, he would definitely recognize this cold man in black as Uncle Hei, and this old man was obviously the old friend that Uncle Hei wanted to see, "Ye Jiao" Heavenly Realm Ninefold Horned Wood Jiao, the most powerful existence in the Qinglong Ye clan except for Qinglong.

Uncle Hei said displeasedly, "The young master said that you want to hide your identity first, why do you have to come to join in the fun?" If you are exposed, don't mention me."

The old man said calmly, "Ye Hei, do you remember how old I am now?" How many years have you been in charge of this kingdom? ”

Ye Hei was dumbfounded......

The old man burst into tears and said, "I have lived for more than 4,600 years, and I don't know the exact number, I have been in charge of this kingdom for more than 3,000 years!" I have long looked down on life and death, but you should know that my happiest time was the time when I followed my master! I have no regrets for so many years, and even in the thousand and thirty-seven years when my master was away, I persevered, what am I for? Ye Hei, I don't have much time, just let me be selfish for once! ”

With that, the old man walked up the stairs and towards the high platform.

In the past, a group of people or beasts, sworn to follow their masters, they were not afraid of death, they were not afraid of loneliness, they were afraid that the master did not want them, because without the master there would be no them...... When the master announced the dissolution of the Ye clan, they still adhered to their duties, because they believed that the master would come back, even if it was a thousand years, they would wait to keep it, and if they died, they would be handed over to their descendants, they were afraid...... I'm afraid that if I don't do it well, one day the master will come back and blame them.
