Perfect: Many children, many blessings! Join the chat group!

The sound descended from the sky like a thunderclap, shattering the peace that had prevailed in the Snow Kingdom for years.

Zhu Chen frowned slightly and looked up.

Above the Snow Region Kingdom, a group of cultivators dressed in the same attire had already teleported there.

They hovered darkly around the Snowfield Kingdom, completely surrounding it.

Zhu Chen carefully sensed them and found that the lowest cultivation level among these cultivators was the Nascent Soul stage.

Among them are dozens of Nascent Soul stage experts stationed in various locations, creating the impression of a massive army pressing in.

The leader was an elderly man with white hair and beard, dressed in a purple Taoist robe, standing with his hands behind his back. His aura was unfathomable, and he was clearly the one who had spoken earlier.

He looked down at the people below, his gaze falling on the Red Butterfly who had just emerged from the secret chamber, a triumphant smile playing on his lips.

“Fellow Daoist Red Butterfly, I have already given you enough face by personally coming to retrieve the Vermilion Bird Seal. If you know what’s good for you, hand it over yourself to avoid damaging our relationship.”

Zhu Chen looked at Hong Die and asked in a low voice, "Who are these people?"

Hongdie's expression changed slightly, and she gritted her teeth and said, "They are all from the Tianyu Sect. The old guy in the lead is the sect master of the Tianyu Sect, Chu Yunfei."

"Chu Yunfei?"

Zhu Chen's gaze sharpened slightly; he remembered that the other party seemed to be from the Vermilion Bird Kingdom.

Hongdie continued, "When the Vermilion Bird Tomb was first opened, he was only at the early stage of the Ascension Realm. But for some reason, after that incident, he left Vermilion Bird Star and returned, and his cultivation broke through to the Yin Deficiency and Yang Reality Realm. Now he is the strongest cultivator on Vermilion Bird Star."

As she said this, a hint of resentment flashed in Hongdie's eyes: "The Human Dao Immortal, the Earth Soul Sect, and other sects and families with Nascent Soul cultivators in the Vermilion Bird Kingdom have all submitted to him. I had long anticipated that he would come to seize the position of Vermilion Bird Prince, which is why I chose to go into seclusion."

"It's a pity... no matter how hard I try to cultivate, I'm still only at the late Nascent Soul stage. This is all thanks to the cultivation resources you gave me last time. Without those resources, it's hard to say whether I could have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage by now."

After hearing Hongdie's explanation, Zhu Chen's gaze gradually turned cold.

He gently took Red Butterfly's hand and said calmly, "With me here, you don't need to be afraid of them..."

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at the hundreds of cultivators in the sky, coldly saying, "Are you all surrounding me here to steal my woman's things?"

His voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

Upon hearing this, the Tianyu Sect cultivators in the sky were immediately in an uproar.

"A woman? When did Red Butterfly have a man?"

"Who is this kid? He's got some nerve!"

"Hmph~, a mere brat who hasn't even grown up yet dares to be so insolent in front of us?"

The crowd burst into disdainful laughter.

They couldn't sense any cultivation level from Zhu Chen and thought he was just an ignorant brat from the Snow Region Kingdom.

Only Chu Yunfei frowned slightly, his gaze carefully scrutinizing Zhu Chen.

He realized that he couldn't see through the boy's true nature, and a sense of unease crept into his heart.

However, he quickly suppressed this unease.

He's just a kid!

How much ability can he possibly have?
"Young man, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. Hongdie's cultivation is insufficient, and she cannot secure the position of the Vermilion Bird Prince. If she holds this Vermilion Bird Seal in her hands, it will only bring her death. I am keeping it safe for her own good."

Chu Yunfei looked at Zhu Chen expressionlessly and said.

"For my woman's sake?"

Zhu Chen smiled.

However, his smile was full of mockery: "Who do you think you are? You dare to think about her?"

Chu Yunfei's face darkened: "Insolence!"

With a wave of his hand, hundreds of cultivators behind him took a step forward in unison, their imposing aura pressing down on Zhu Chen and Hong Die.

Hongdie's face paled, and she instinctively gripped Zhu Chen's hand tightly.

Zhu Chen patted the back of her hand indifferently, indicating that she shouldn't be afraid.

Then, he raised his head, his gaze calmly meeting the dark mass of cultivators, his tone growing colder: "I do not wish to commit further bloodshed in this realm. I will give you three breaths to get out, or don't blame me for being ruthless..."

His voice was still not loud, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.

The cultivators from the Heavenly Jade Sect exchanged bewildered glances, then burst into laughter. "Hahaha~, has this kid gone mad? He actually told us to get lost..."

"Three breaths to get out of here? Who does he think he is?"

"Arrogant! Utterly arrogant!"

Chu Yunfei also sneered: "Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Zhu Chen's voice came through again:
"three……"

"two……"

Everyone was taken aback at first, and then a strange look appeared on their faces.

They didn't expect Zhu Chen to have started a countdown.

That's incredibly disrespectful to them.

"one……"

After Zhu Chen uttered the last number.

His body moved.

No one saw how he moved.

All they saw was Zhu Chen's body transform into a golden light and rush into the crowd like lightning!

"——Bang bang bang bang..."

A series of muffled thuds followed.

The cultivators at the very front didn't even have time to scream before they were instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist!
"what?"

Chu Yunfei's pupils shrank sharply, and for the first time, a look of horror appeared on his face.

The golden light that Zhu Chen transformed into darted through the crowd, and each time it appeared, it was accompanied by a burst of blood mist.

Those Nascent Soul stage monsters who had roamed the Vermilion Bird Star for hundreds of years were as fragile as paper in front of Zhu Chen, collapsing at the slightest touch!

"Run, run!"

But after Zhu Chen swiftly killed dozens of cultivators, someone finally realized what was happening.

Some people turned and ran, but it was too late.

Zhu Chen's figure was like a ghost, and no one could defeat him wherever he went.

Those cultivators in the Nascent Soul and Infant Transformation stages didn't even have time to use any supernatural powers before they were directly crushed into dust!

In just a few breaths, only Chu Yunfei remained out of the hundreds of cultivators.

"Who...who exactly are you?"

Chu Yunfei hovered blankly in mid-air, staring at the blood mist drifting around him. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and even his voice trembled.

The next second, Zhu Chen appeared directly in front of him.

He looked at Chu Yunfei calmly, as if he were looking at an ant.

"You are not qualified to know who I am."

Zhu Chen raised his hand and gently squeezed it.

Before Chu Yunfei could even react, he felt the space around him suddenly freeze, and an irresistible force squeezed in from all directions.

"Do not……"

He let out a shrill roar, desperately circulating his Yin-deficient and Yang-real cultivation, only to find that his proud power was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of this power!

"--boom!"

A muffled thud followed.

Chu Yunfei's body was blasted into a cloud of blood mist.
