C595 First on the hunting leaderboard
During this period, everything was very calm and no major events occurred, but Ye Chen's name slowly spread throughout the entire Changfeng Empire. The scene of him killing a Dracon-blood Alligator in the Heavenly Beast Forest was imprinted on a treasure and then teleported away.
As a guest elder of the Changfeng Empire, it was impossible for Ye Chen to be low-key even if he wanted to.
Although the Star Moon Dynasty was no longer present, the cities still proceeded in an orderly manner. Everyone was clear, the owner of the Star Moon Dynasty had already changed to Ye Chen, and the only thing that had not appeared was on the surface.
Of course, not all the clans were convinced from the bottom of their hearts. They were waiting for an opportunity; as long as the Yu Family fell, the royal families would definitely take action one after another, dominating the Star Moon Dynasty!
Ye Chen slowly woke up from his cultivation and realized that Li Jianli and Han Jun had been waiting for a long time, as if something had happened.
"Boss, if you don't wake up soon, you're going to miss the Refining Tournament." said anxiously. Ever since they knew that Ye Chen was a master refiner, Li Jianli and the others had high hopes for him.
Currently, Ye Chen had already obtained two placings for the three types of Large Competition. If he obtained one more slot for the Refining Tournament, that would create a new set of rules and become the first person in hundreds of years to obtain three placings in one go for Star Moon Dynasty.
"Refining Tournament?" Ye Chen was startled, he had actually forgotten about this matter, and asked: "Oh right, is there any news about Ghost King Qianqiu?"
"Don't worry, Ghost King Qianqiu definitely wouldn't dare to speak carelessly. He himself broke the Divine Pavilion Rules, and unless he never wants to enter the Burial Land of the Gods again, he won't reveal Xiao Huo's identity." Yu Linglong said, as if he was very sure of it.
Even though he said that, Ye Chen was still a little worried. After all, Little Flame was a Divine Beast, and Ghost King Qianqiu would not let it go so easily.
Fortunately, Ye Chen had already given Xiao Huo to Yu Lingfeng to take care of, and it wouldn't be long before he could recover his Heavenly Spirit Stage. At that time, he wouldn't need to fear Ghost King Qianqiu anymore.
"Oh right, there's one more thing," Suddenly, Yu Linglong's expression became serious, "Last time you killed an elder of Ice And Snow Divine Palace, this matter was made known to Ice And Snow Divine Palace, and your bounty has already reached 400 million treasure crystals. You are temporarily ranked first on the Luoling Stage Hunting List!"
Yu Linglong emphasized the word "first". Both Li Jianli and Han Jun were incomparably cautious as a hint of killing intent flashed across their eyes.
First? Devil King Ye squinted his eyes. He had a premonition about this matter, but he did not expect it to be so eye-catching. It was obvious that there were a lot of people behind the scene, otherwise, he would not be the number one on the Hunting Leaderboard.
It had to be known that after becoming the top ranker on the Hunting Leaderboard, no matter where one went in the future, there would be dangers everywhere. At any time, there would be people who could kill him. Even the Heavenly Spirit Stage Expert would not be able to resist and kill him. He wanted to make himself the enemy of the entire world!
Furthermore, Ye Chen had thought about even more things, and this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed. He himself was a guest elder of the Changfeng Empire, his status was definitely not low at all!
This way, the Yu Family and the Shangguan Family would definitely be under a lot of pressure. On one hand, it was because of the suppression from the Dugu Family, and on the other, it was because of the interference from the Ice And Snow Divine Palace. If the Shangguan Family couldn't endure the pressure, they would definitely strip themselves of the position of being a guest elder.
If they took away the position of the Monarch Level's guest elder, many clans and cultivators would not hold back. 400 million crystals would be equivalent to a small-scale vein, and would be enough to support the rise of a small clan.
However, after thinking about all these, Ye Chen instantly understood the strong relationship between all of them. Rather than saying that this was a hunt, it was more like a game between the various powers and clans! However, the price of this game was too big and the scope was too wide!
Such ruthlessness!
As he thought of this, Ye Chen's gaze gradually turned ice-cold.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Your own strength and potential is already known to the Changfeng Empire Royal Family. Even if they don't support you, they wouldn't add insult to injury. After all, the Royal Family just loves face." Yu Lingfeng's voice suddenly rang, and she slowly walked into the room. She said in a deep voice, "As for the Shangguan Family and my Yu Family, they will forever be your shields!"
The last sentence, was spoken by Yu Lingfeng sonorously!
"If you are threatening Yu Family, senior does not need to make things difficult for you. If I am alone, I can say that I have no ties whatsoever. Wanting to kill me, is not such a simple matter." Ye Chen bowed slightly towards Yu Lingfeng. He did not want to make things difficult for the Yu Family, even though Yu Family was a type of investment to help him, he still owed it a lot.
As for the Shangguan Family, Ye Chen did not have much hope, so why would Yu Lingfeng say that, Ye Chen did not ask.
There were only two people that Ye Chen completely trusted in the people around him today, and that was Li Jianli and Han Jun. Even Yu Linglong had some doubts about this; after all, the people standing behind Yu Linglong were the entire Yu Family.
If there was a conflict of interests between him and the Yu Family, how would she choose? This was also why Ye Chen didn't want to make things difficult for the Yu Family. It was because he didn't want to fall out with the Yu Family in the end and make things difficult for Yu Linglong.
Taking precautions is not a bad thing. Moreover, the matter is not as simple as you think, last time you killed the Dracon-blood Alligator of Peak Luoling Stage, and she has already let many great clans know, that they definitely want to rope you in. If you are unable to rope in a talent like yours, there will only be one result. Yu Lingfeng shook his head.
Ye Chen squinted his eyes. He was very clear on this point, he had received the Master Refiner's legacy back then, which was also Xuan Lin. The situation was like this, with many great families extending their olive branches to him, but he still rejected them.
Ye Chen knew that his current strength was still unable to compare to the Profound Qilin of the past, but anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that his potential was not small at all.
"Thank you for your concern, senior." Ye Chen slightly bowed, then a cold killing intent swept out from Ye Chen's body. The temperature in the air suddenly dropped, and Ye Chen coldly spat out a few words: "Regardless of them, as long as they come, I will kill them all!"
At that moment, Ye Chen's murderous intent was not hidden at all. He did not want to kill anyone, but if anyone killed him, he was not afraid! This was his, Ye Chen's, path!
"Boss is right, kill as many as you can!" Li Jianli also agreed by the side. He knew that the situation was grim, but he never thought that the number one on the Hunting Leaderboard, which he thought was a great honor, would actually contain so many things.
"Kill as many as you can!" The light in Han Jun's eyes also became cold. He chose to stand behind Ye Chen at the first moment.
"Count me in!" Yu Linglong did not hesitate, and stood beside Ye Chen.
Yu Lingfeng laughed bitterly, he seemed to have already guessed the outcome. As for persuading Ye Chen to hide, there was no need, he could only say: "Then we should participate in the Refining Competition first."
