In the eyes of the trio of Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard, there was only an upsurge of flames rushing to the sky, oblivious to anything else. The magnificent flames soared hundreds of feet, reaching into the sky, instantly engulfing the circle formed by the Thousand Layers of Illusion.
Ye Qingfeng supported the sky with one palm, feet planted firmly on the ground, his gaze indifferent.
A figure shot out from the pillar of fire, with sparks dotting his clothes, in extreme disarray—it was Shangchuan Duantian.
If he hadn’t sensed danger and protected himself with robust spiritual power in an instant, rushing to the edge of the fire pillar, he might have been entirely engulfed by flames.
"Where did this guy get such a large-scale fire attack from? Could he be a master of magic? Or a flame superpower user? How is this possible?"
Shangchuan Duantian retreated again and again in the sky, unable to stop the horror in his heart.
He suddenly realized he was facing an absolute monster that defied common sense.
At this moment, Shangchuan Duantian’s hair was charred black, with most of his clothes in tatters, and his left sleeve completely burnt away, revealing his emaciated left arm.
"Thousand Layers of Illusion? The namesake indeed, but, alas, not worth a blow!"
Ye Qingfeng rose into the sky, gently shaking his head, his words tinged with disdain.
"The forty-th on the War God List, today it should be replaced!"
Ye Qingfeng’s pupils returned to normal, but then he lightly clenched his hand, and the sky full of fire waves dissipated, condensing into a brilliant fireball, slowly rising between his palms.
"One move, it took just one move to break the Thousand Layers of Illusion?"
Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard were stunned with fear; earlier they thought Ye Qingfeng would struggle, but in an instant, Shangchuan Duantian’s Thousand Layers of Illusion was entirely broken by the fire pillar, and judging by his appearance, he had suffered some injuries.
Leopard’s beautiful eyes widened, suddenly realizing she might be a shallow person, having prematurely judged Ye Qingfeng’s combat power based on previous assumptions.
Stopping war with war, that’s the Invincible War God Ye Jiujie!
Shangchuan Duan Shui shook his head slightly. During his earlier bout with Ye Qingfeng, such a violent martial technique wasn’t used, or else he might have become a huge fireball, slowly evaporating by now.
Shangchuan Duantian’s face was blue and purple. Since mastering his saber technique, he had only been defeated by Huaxia’s "Dragon King," and even then, he hadn’t been as miserable as now.
And the one who reduced him to such a state was a Huaxia youth.
Ye Qingfeng, however, paid no heed, instantly closing in on Shangchuan Duantian, pummeling with punch after fierce punch.
Shangchuan Duantian’s aura within was chaotic, helplessly wielding his saber horizontally to withstand Ye Qingfeng’s increasingly ferocious punches.
On Ye Qingfeng’s twenty-fourth punch, the already-damaged White Blade finally couldn’t withstand the force, breaking abruptly under the stunned gaze of the onlookers.
Ye Qingfeng’s punch penetrated through, striking Shangchuan Duantian’s chest.
Shangchuan Duantian spat out a mouthful of blood, his form recoiling, landing heavily on the Xiangxie Divine Platform. Shangchuan Duan Shui attempted to assist but was shoved away by Shangchuan Duantian.
"Ye Jiujie, I’ll tear you to pieces!"
He clutched the shattered White Blade, his anger uncontainable.
He roared at the sky, suddenly shouting, "Doug, brother, lend me a hand to kill this man!"
His voice echoed across the heavens, causing Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, and Shangchuan Duan Shui to pause in shock.
Shangchuan Duantian, seeking help?
Is there a War Emperor level master present?
Ye Qingfeng slightly lifted his gaze, looking towards the distant sky.
A thunderous roar erupted, a massive bolt of lightning streaking across the sky, charging towards Ye Qingfeng.
Ye Qingfeng swung his single hand, fist faintly aflame, clashing against the massive lightning bolt.
"Step step!" This text is hosted at n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
He retreated three steps in midair, his arm feeling slightly numb.
The lightning was stopped by his punch and halted, revealing a Western face wearing a robe with python patterns.
He had high cheekbones, blue eyes full of spirit, and hands clasped behind his back; his tall stature almost reaching one meter ninety, standing proudly between heaven and earth.
His face bore a slight smile, appearing like a middle-aged gentleman, but Ye Qingfeng could sense the violent Thunder Power emanating from him.
Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard’s eyes fixed on this man, suddenly recalling a peerless powerhouse roaming the Middle Eastern region.
This figure, solely controlling Thunder, subjugated countless Middle Eastern warlords, who revered him, rumored once to have sunk a giant freighter with a single bolt of lightning, with power comparable to heaven and earth.
This man was named Doug, of pure Western descent, known for his control over Thunder Power, revered by many as the "Light Fire Thunder God," ranked third among Junior War King strongmen on the War God List.
"Invincible War God Ye Jiujie, impressive!"
Doug gently nodded, his gaze still smiling at Ye Qingfeng; one could mistake him for a refined gentleman, however, his previous lightning form strike was merciless.
If not for Ye Qingfeng’s extraordinary power, a typical High-level War King would have been reduced to ashes under that strike.
"Another one coming to die?"
The numbness in Ye Qingfeng’s arm had long vanished, his eyes squinting, his words unapologetic.
"Ye Jiujie, your prestige is too great, and you’re too arrogant!"
Doug lightly shook his head: "In just six months, you’ve climbed to the forty-fifth spot on the War God List, quite an achievement!"
"Even my old friend Duan Chuan is no match for you, I must say I’m impressed!"
"But Duan Chuan is also my friend, and your talent is too potent. If left to grow further, where on the War God List will there be room for us?"
Doug gave a sinister smile, Thunder Arc dancing on his fingertips.
"Today I’ll seize the opportunity to let Huaxia lose an unrivaled master!"
As his words fell, Shangchuan Duantian, who had stabilized his breath, also soared, standing alongside Doug.
"Ye Jiujie, I’ve said, today I’ll tear you to pieces!"
He looked downward and beckoned to Shangchuan Duan Shui.
"Come up, today we shall cut this brat down here!"
Shangchuan Duan Shui froze, then erupted with boundless delight.
This was the first time Shangchuan Duantian actively let him join the fray, filling him with bold courage, feeling that all previous injuries were worth it.
Wielding the Chiyou Sword, Shangchuan Duan Shui stood in line with the two, three powerful figures, facing Ye Qingfeng alone.
Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard eyes revealed disbelief.
Every master retains martial pride, yet here three have joined forces against Ye Jiujie?
"War God List rank thirty-five, forty, sixty!"
The Dragon’s lips trembled slightly at such a lineup, thinking perhaps except for War God Warriors and the Executioner enforcers of major bases, only the elusive "Dragon King" could handle this, right?
Ye Qingfeng’s gaze swept over the three, his handsome visage showing no fear.
His face was stern, the battle intent in his eyes even fiercer than before.
He stepped forward, body enveloped in flames, incinerating the flying earth leaves into nothingness.
"Since my debut, I, Ye Jiujie, have never fought such an exhilarating battle, how splendid!"
His eyes sparkled like stars, finger pointing at the three.
"The three of you, come at me together!"
"Even with the world as my enemy, what do I, Ye Jiujie, have to fear?"
Ye Qingfeng’s voice thundered across the heavens.
His body swelled with spiritual power, fists tightly clenched, standing like a battle god amidst the world, showing not a hint of weakness even against the three War God List masters.
Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard’s hearts shook profoundly. Shangchuan Duantian, Doug, and Shangchuan Duan Shui joined forces, such an array, even the top thirty on the War God List might avoid battle, right?
But Ye Qingfeng showed no fear, instead brimming with grandiose energy, planning to fight one against three?
At this moment, Leopard’s heart trembled greatly.
Her previous ridiculous thoughts vanished instantly.
She finally understood what the Invincible War God stood for, not only for unmatched combat power but also for fearing no challenge, daring to confront limits with courage.
