The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2289 - 2278: Kill Directly

Many presumed Ye Chenfeng was about to make his escape.

Hovering mid-air, Ye Chenfeng's intent was clear to Tan Yuanwu, who had just received his message. What Ye Chenfeng planned, however, remained a mystery.

Ye Chenfeng's composed voice cut through the atmosphere.

All eyes, including those of the ancestors from Xiao Yao Palace, Heavenly Sword Sect, and the Jins, along with Luo Qianhai and Hua Wanchuan, turned upwards towards Ye Chenfeng. A flicker of confusion was evident on their faces.

A sense of utter hopelessness had gripped Luo Qianhai and the others from Xiao Yao Palace and allied sects after witnessing the terrifying might of the Bloodswallow Clan. Escape seemed impossible, let alone for Ye Chenfeng, whose cultivation resided merely at the Peak of Heavenly God Realm Level Six.

Even though Ye Chenfeng had previously displayed remarkable strength, leaving Luo Qianhai and the others astonished, they were extremely reluctant, perhaps a thousandfold, to believe he could confront the formidable Bloodswallow Clan.

Does altitude equate to absolute power?

Hua Wanchuan and Luo Qianhai engaged in urgent private transmissions, strategizing their escape route. Dying at the hands of the Bloodswallow Clan was not an option. The potential resurgence of the Bloodswallow Clan in the Tian Xuan Realm was a concern for another time; their immediate priority was survival.

Ye Chenfeng's defiant stance ignited the fury of the Bloodswallow Clan. Having just been resurrected and brimming with rage, they found Ye Chenfeng, a mere cultivator at the Peak of Heavenly God Realm Level Six, utterly contemptible.

"Clan Leader, this human is far too arrogant! He completely disregards our mighty Bloodswallow Clan. Who does he think he is? Just some insignificant human cultivator!"

"Clan Leader, though you decreed to spare his life, we could at least cripple his power. Leaving him with a mere breath would suffice. Our Bloodswallow Clan will absolutely not tolerate such blatant disrespect from other races! This time, we shall claim dominion over this world!"

... Various members of the clan voiced their indignation to Tun Tian, while in the distance, Tan Yuanwu's expression was etched with deep concern.

Tun Tian let out a chilling sneer directed at Ye Chenfeng suspended above. "I truly cannot fathom the source of your audacity. Do you genuinely believe your mere strength is sufficient to vanquish our Bloodswallow Clan?"

Ye Chenfeng remained poised in the sky.

Old Bai and Old Hei had already revealed the precise locations of the Array Eyes to him. The very spot where he now stood was one such critical point.

With a surge of his power, he could initiate the activation of the Array of Ten Deaths Without Life.

Ye Chenfeng cast his gaze upon Tun Tian below, a smile gracing his lips. "Why not? Allow me, Ye Chenfeng, to be the one to destroy your Bloodswallow Clan!"

Tun Tian's countenance darkened further upon hearing these words, and the aura of the Early Divine Venerable Realm began to surge within him. Just as he prepared to ascend into the sky...

Ye Chenfeng abruptly channeled the power within his body into the Array Eyes concealed high above.

With a resounding "boom!"

An immense gravitational force descended upon the entire ancestral domain of the Bloodswallow Clan. This oppressive force specifically targeted the Bloodswallow Clan, rendering them incapable of taking flight. Tun Tian, who had just begun his ascent, was forcefully slammed back to the ground by this crushing gravity.

This was the effect of the initial activation of the Array of Ten Deaths Without Life, designed to tether the Bloodswallow Clan to the ground, preventing their aerial approach towards Ye Chenfeng. Naturally, this gravitational field did not impede the projection of force or attacks, allowing the Bloodswallow Clan to still employ their ground-based combat skills and secret techniques.

Having successfully initiated the Array of Ten Deaths Without Life, Ye Chenfeng immediately sent a mental message to the momentarily stunned Tan Yuanwu below: "Go quickly. Assist Xiao Rou and the others in recovering their physical forms."

Ye Chenfeng's voice echoed in Tan Yuanwu's mind, jolting him back to awareness. He cast a glance at Ye Chenfeng above, realizing the oppressive force in the sky was exclusively directed at the Bloodswallow Clan. Without delay, he fled, carrying the two Bloodswallow Clan corpses.

Tun Tian and his kin paid no heed to Tan Yuanwu's departure.

Presently, every member of the Bloodswallow Clan, including Tun Tian himself, wore expressions of grave solemnity. Their undivided attention was fixed upon Ye Chenfeng, as the sudden, dramatic shift in the environment was utterly astonishing. Even Tun Tian, a cultivator of the Early Divine Venerate Realm, found himself unable to soar, pinned to the earth by the forces from above.

It wasn't until Tan Yuanwu made his escape that Luo Qianhai and Hua Wanchuan, along with their contingent from Xiao Yao Palace and other factions, snapped out of their stupor. They, too, fled without hesitation, making no attempt to pursue Tan Yuanwu. Capturing Tan Yuanwu was no longer their primary objective; locating an escape route had become their paramount concern.

As others seized the moment to flee, some members of the Bloodswallow Clan harbored the urge to obstruct them, their means of escape merely hindered. However, Tun Tian intervened, stating, "Let them go. This is the ancestral land of our Bloodswallow Clan. Without our sanction, who can depart? They are incapable of escaping this place."

With his declaration made, Tun Tian's attention reverted to Ye Chenfeng, suspended in the air. The global shifts unsettled him, yet he sensed the formation had not reached its full potential. Should it be completely unleashed, the repercussions would be beyond imagination.

Now that the Array of Ten Deaths Without Life had been preliminarily activated, its presence was palpable to all. This formation enveloped the entirety of the Bloodswallow Clan's ancestral domain. Tun Tian was certain Ye Chenfeng lacked the capability to erect such an extensive array. He had been intermittently gauging and observing Ye Chenfeng previously.

Suddenly.

Tun Tian's expression grew even more solemn as he recalled an occurrence from the Ancient Era, when a contingent of Array Masters had infiltrated their sacred grounds. Mercifully, they were detected swiftly, and no formation traces were subsequently discerned within the ancestral land. It transpired, however, that the formation orchestrated by those Array Masters could conceal itself with such depth, eluding the Bloodswallow Clan's detection.

Tun Tian deduced that the formation Ye Chenfeng had now activated must have been laid by those Array Masters in ages past.

While Tun Tian remained unaware of the specific nature of the formation embedded within the ancestral land, he was certain of its lethal capacity. Observing Ye Chenfeng's composed demeanor in the heavens above, Tun Tian's disquiet intensified. Despite his profound curiosity regarding Ye Chenfeng's hidden strengths, he was disinclined to court further risk. He recognized the imperative to eliminate Ye Chenfeng with utmost haste; he perceived that the full activation of the formation was not an effortless feat, yet he could no longer afford to delay.

Tun Tian promptly issued an order, his countenance etched with ferocity: "All members, unleash your combat skills and secret techniques in unison, and annihilate this brat."
