The night was as dark as ink, the stars were dim, as if even heaven and earth were mourning this missed opportunity.

Chen Si felt a mix of emotions, including deep regret for his past choices and a helpless acceptance of the irreversible situation.

He understood that there are no "what ifs" in this world; only by facing reality can one find a sliver of relief and transcendence.

So, in the quiet night, he slowly closed his eyes, allowing his heart to gradually return to peace amidst endless regret and relief.

"My master is the leader of the Shaking Dragon Sect. You killed my junior brother and then me. My master will not let you get away with this!"

Chen Si spoke calmly.

Ye Chu chuckled. Things had come to this point; he had already offended everyone he could.

Even if your master is Old Wang, I'll still kill you today.

Ye Chu acted without the slightest hesitation, gently twisting his wrist.

As if the most subtle string in the world had been plucked, the White Dragon Spear was instantly imbued with a violent life force.

"Bang!"

A deafening explosion, like thunder, resounded through the quiet forest, and a tragic flower of blood suddenly bloomed on Chen Si's chest.

Immediately afterwards, the blood mist spread rapidly like wisps of cloud whipped up by a gale, staining everything around it with an ominous dark red.

But this was just the beginning. Ye Chu's offensive was like a surging river, unstoppable.

The spear, still carrying considerable force, pierced through Chen Si's body and, with an unstoppable sharpness, embedded itself deeply into the ground beneath his feet.

Its depth of over half a meter demonstrates its unparalleled destructive power.

At that moment, the earth seemed to tremble, and a deafening roar could be heard.

Like a sleeping earth dragon suddenly awakened, it rolled its body angrily.

The surrounding trees, already teetering on the brink of collapse from the previous fierce battle, were now falling one after another under the impact of this terrifying power, their branches and leaves flying everywhere, leaving the forest in a mess and adding to the desolate and tragic atmosphere of the apocalypse.

Ye Chu stood still, surrounded by a faint, chilling aura. The bloodstains remaining on the White Dragon Spear shimmered with an eerie light under the moonlight, as if they were the best testament to his ruthless fighting spirit.

This scene is both an ultimate display of power and an inescapable, cruel choice made amidst intertwined destinies.

Immediately, Ye Chu's eyes flashed, and he slowly opened his Qi Shen Eye. The spiritual power contained within it surged out like a tangible substance, sweeping over Chen Si's lying body in an almost aggressive manner.

This power, capable of piercing the secrets of all things in the world, encountered an unprecedented void the moment it touched Chen Si.

Chen Si's body seemed to have been wiped clean by an invisible hand, leaving no trace of his belongings.

"How strange! How could this person, with his demeanor and actions, be someone who possesses nothing of value?"

Ye Chu frowned slightly, pondering to himself, a hint of confusion and inquiry flashing in his eyes.

Then, he slowly stepped forward, his steps carrying an unyielding determination.

His fingers lightly touched Chen Si's cold skin, beginning to search inch by inch, as if he were solving a carefully laid puzzle.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment, with only the barely audible rustling of Ye Chu's clothes echoing in the stillness.

Finally, after a long exploration, a faint glimmer of light flickered from Ye Chu's fingertips.

He gently pulled a small and exquisite storage ring from between Chen Si's tightly clenched teeth.

This ring is more exquisite than usual, with intricate and mysterious engravings, clearly made for a special purpose.

"It was able to evade my spiritual eye's detection; this precept must hold a secret."

Ye Chu stared at the ring in his hand, his heart filled with indescribable astonishment and curiosity.

Immediately, Ye Chu's gaze slowly swept over the surrounding mess, and he secretly pondered that these two earth-shattering battles had probably stirred up undercurrents throughout Zhenhai City, making everyone aware of the changing winds and events here.

The aftershocks of the battle, like lightning tearing through the night sky, were so powerful that they inspired fear and were difficult to quell.

The battle was so fierce and prolonged that it lasted for several hours, leaving devastation in its wake, resembling an apocalyptic scene.

This destructive power will undoubtedly attract even stronger follow-up forces from the Shao family, making the urgency of the situation self-evident.

"Leave this place immediately!"

With his mind made up, Ye Chu instantly unleashed the Cloud Circling Step, his figure transforming into a faint shadow, as light as the wind, instantly merging into the vast night, leaving only a faint wisp of spiritual energy fluctuation that slowly dissipated in the night sky.

Just half an incense stick's time after Ye Chu left, a chilling aura suddenly descended, like a ghost in the dark night, silently appearing beside Chen Hua and Chen Si.

This figure exuded a suffocatingly terrifying pressure, staring at everything before him, as if he could see every trace left by the battle.

"That power was truly astonishing!"

"I speculate that his cultivation has reached at least the peak of the third level, just half a step away from the legendary Grandmaster realm, which makes people's hearts surge and they can hardly contain themselves."

"What terrifying opponent did those two brothers from the Chen family encounter that led to their deaths far from home? It is truly a case of heaven being jealous of talent, and it is a cause for deep regret."

The burly man, as imposing as a mountain, narrowed his eyes, a flicker of disbelief and deep fear crossing his gaze.

However, what unsettled him even more at this moment was the subtle change in his surroundings.

A thin layer of spiritual energy permeated the air, as if it had been quietly plundered by an invisible hand.

"Could it be that a master is secretly helping Ye Chu? Such methods are extraordinary!"

He thought to himself, then quickly dismissed his guess.

"Senior Wu Hongdao? No, that's absolutely impossible. With his status and cultivation, how could he easily get involved in such a trivial matter?"

The man shook his head slightly, his heart filled with turmoil. All the mysteries were like ghosts in the mist, appearing and disappearing.

"Moreover, Senior Wu Hongru, that legendary figure who achieved physical immortality, dedicated his life to tempering his bones and muscles, pursuing the ultimate strength and power. With pure power, he broke through all the laws of the world, earning a renowned reputation!"

"So, who exactly is this powerful figure who secretly paved this thorny path for Ye Chu?"

"Why would he risk making an enemy of the Shao family to reverse the situation?"

The man took a deep breath, as if trying to inhale the doubt along with the surrounding air into his chest, attempting to find a clear clue in the chaos.

At this moment, his mind was like a sudden storm, churning up layers of turbulent waves. An unprecedented idea gradually emerged, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the way forward.

"Could it be that Ye Chu has quietly awakened the legendary ability of 'using Qi'?"

"Such talent is enough to make the heavens and earth change color, and to make even the strong feel inferior."

"In that light, it's not surprising that he could force the Shao family to go to such lengths; it's truly terrifying and astonishing!"

The man sighed softly and shook his head, his eyes filled with both amazement and deep thought, as if at this moment he had glimpsed an even more intricate and magnificent game of chess beneath the wheel of fate.
