Chapter 1677: Pursuit Chapter 1677: Pursuit Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Argh! Gu Yun let out a blood-curdling scream. The excruciating pain nearly made him faint. At the same time, Ye Chen released Gu Yun’s arm and a violent wave of energy swept out. Bang! Gu Yun was sent flying and smashed into a huge rock, which promptly shattered. Seeing Gu Yun was riddled with injuries, Ye Chen did not hesitate. His eyes narrowed as he drew his sword again. “Don’t… Don’t kill me, I can give you all of the soul fruits.” This kid was really too powerful! Ye Chen’s sword sliced past Gu Yun’s cheek, and a line of red blood appeared on his cheek from the wound. “I don’t like to leave behind any future threats.” “Do you understand?” Ye Chen grabbed the soul fruits and all of the valuable treasures from Gu Yun’s body and shook his head. “Keeping you alive serves no purpose, so I’ll send you on your way.” As soon as he finished speaking, he stabbed the sword into Gu Yun’s heart. Ye Chen would never show mercy to his enemies. “Argh! Ye Chen, you’ll rot in hell!” Gu Yun roared at the sky. Then, his entire body fell to the ground, losing all signs of life. “Sir, these are treasures from those two Dao Integration realm experts.” Chen Feng walked over and took out the treasures the two of them had plundered from the two early-stage Dao Integration realm experts and handed them to Ye Chen. Ye Chen glanced at them and nodded slightly. Then, he put them away. This time, he had obtained ten soul fruits. If he refined them, his soul power would definitely reach new heights. Ye Chen and the others packed up and were about to leave when they suddenly sensed a powerful aura approaching. “Not good, let’s go!” Ye Chen could sense that the person approaching was at least an eighth-level Dao Integration realm expert, which would be troublesome to deal with. Thus, they quickly fled as terrifying killing intent approached them from behind. “Little b*stard, do you think you can escape? You killed the disciples of the Fierce Demon Palace. You must pay with your blood!” Behind Ye Chen, a fierce-looking old man was in pursuit. Over the past two days, the number of disciples of the Fierce Demon Palace had been decreasing in the summer region, and this old man, Elder Xue, finally found out that it was Ye Chen’s doing. Elder Xue had thought that no matter how strong Ye Chen was, he could not possibly kill a Dao Integration realm expert, but the moment he saw Gu Yun fall, he knew that he had been mistaken. This time, he was determined to kill Ye Chen. Otherwise, the next faction to be destroyed would be the Fierce Demon Palace. “If you want to kill me, you have to catch me first.” Ye Chen was not afraid of Elder Xue. He had been hunted down countless times. Why would he be afraid of an eighth-level Dao Integration rea;, expert? “You little b*stard, I’ll definitely get my hands on you. Just you wait!” Ye Chen pushed his speed to the limit, while Chen Feng and Wang Qian followed closely behind him. Their faces turned pale. When had they ever been pursued by someone so powerful? If not for his mental fortitude, they would have been paralyzed from fear. “Sir, we are too slow. I’m afraid it won’t be long before he catches us.” At this moment, Chen Feng spoke up. The two of them were weaker than Ye Chen, so they would not be able to keep this pace up for long. “If it really comes down to it, we will self-destruct later to give you a chance to escape. I hope that you can avenge us if that happens.” At this moment, a fierce look flashed across Chen Feng’s eyes. Since entering the Demon Saint Secret Realm, they had already prepared to die. After all, as mere Primordial Chaos realm cultivators, they were only a little bit better than cannon fodder. They were already proud that they had accompanied Ye Chen for a few days. Even if they went to the Netherworld, they could boast about it. Ye Chen frowned. “An eighth-level Dao Integration realm expert isn’t qualified to push us to that extent.” Before Chen Feng and Wang Qian could react, Ye Chen formed a seal with his fingers and a spirit phoenix phantom rushed out of his body. The spirit phoenix phantom covered the three of them, and increased their speed dramatically. Elder Xue was taken aback by this. When he saw the phantom clearly, his expression turned to shock. It was actually the ancient demonic beast, the Spirit Phoenix! Could Ye Chen be a survivor of the Spirit Phoenix Clan? Elder Xue could not figure it out, but he could sense that Ye Chen’s aura was not that of a demonic beast, but that of a pure human. “Could this be some heaven-defying cultivation technique?” At the thought of this, a hint of greed flashed across Elder Xue’s eyes. From his perspective, although Ye Chen was not overly strong, his luck was indeed a little heaven-defying. Chen Feng and Wang Qian looked at the spirit phoenix phantom above their heads in shock and disbelief. Elder Xue had still been confident that he could catch up to Ye Chen, but when he saw the trio’s speed increase, he was left dumbfounded. How were they so fast? If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that mere Primordial Chaos realm cultivators could attain speeds close to that of a Creation realm expert. Of course, this was also due to the Demon Saint Secret Realm’s suppression. If they were outside, even if Elder Xue’s speed could not catch Ye Chen, he would not lose sight of him. However, Elder Xue could now only watch Ye Chen’s figure disappear and give up. There was no point in continuing to chase. “This little b*stard had better pray that I don’t catch him elsewhere!” Elder Xue cursed and turned around to leave. Of course, he would not tell anyone about the fact that he had allowed a first-level Primordial Chaos realm cultivator to escape his grasp. It was shameful. After escaping pursuit, Ye Chen scanned his surroundings. There was no longer any danger around. “Sir, it’s all thanks to you this time. Otherwise…” Chen Feng and Wang Qian’s faces were flushed. Ye Chen waved his hand and did not say anything else. Since these two had submitted to him, they became his subordinates. How could he leave them in the lurch? “Both of you, carefully investigate the surroundings. If there’s anything wrong, report to me immediately.” Although there was no danger on the surface, Ye Chen was still worried. He did not know how long he had been running, and only stopped when he was sure that he had successfully escaped Elder Xue. The only thing Ye Chen could confirm was that he was still in the summer region, the surrounding lava pools and pits would no longer be in sight.
