Chapter 1845 - 1828: Expulsion?

In the Second Layer Heaven of the Holy World, three figures quickly flew across the sky.

"Dan Venerable’s influence, so terrifying?"

Xiao Ye looked down at the earth below, full of emotion.

He and Yi Tianzhou had been flying with Yu Ming for a day, encountering numerous terrifying Spiritual Senses along the way, emitting unfriendly intentions towards them but not making any move.

It seemed that these Martial Artists and the strong ones who had received Dan Venerable’s favor had reached some agreement.

"Really more and more anticipating how strong those Martial Artists who received Dan Venerable’s favor are." Xiao Ye’s eyes were glowing with enthusiasm.

Along the way, he roughly understood some situations of the Second Layer Heaven from Yi Tianzhou and Yu Ming.

In the Second Layer Heaven, there were ten alchemists.

These ten alchemists were all very powerful, able to create extremely fearsome Spirit Pills, like the Extreme Spirit Pill and Faceless Spirit Pill and so on.

Although they were not the culprits of Dan Venerable’s murder, they were the root cause of Yi Tianzhou being hunted in the Third Layer Heaven.

Under them gathered a group of strong warriors, whose strength surpassed Yu Ming by quite a lot.

Once Hou En brought Yi Tianzhou to the Second Layer Heaven and directly defected to the ten alchemists, even Yu Ming and others would have no solution.

It’s worth mentioning that even though there were many strong warriors under the ten alchemists, those ranked in the Realm Spirit List’s top hundred were elusive, devoted to cultivation, holding an exalted status, rarely meddling in the Second Layer Heaven’s affairs, and even the ten alchemists found it hard to engage them, thus they were neutral.

In a blink of an eye, three more days passed.

Although Xiao Ye and his group encountered a number of strong warriors’ Spiritual Sense probes again, it was thrilling and yet uneventful as a Stone Giant City appeared in their view.

This Stone Giant City looked ordinary but erupted a huge sense of oppression, like an Exotic Beast lying on the ground, making people dare not approach.

"Haha, has Dan Venerable’s son arrived?"

Just as Xiao Ye and the others approached, suddenly over a dozen figures soared into the sky from the Stone Giant City, directly greeting them.

"So many strong warriors!"

Xiao Ye’s eyes swept through them, immediately shocked.

Every movement these warriors made released an astounding momentum, with Ancient Scriptures echoing within, several stronger than Yu Ming.

"Brothers and seniors, I thank you all."

"Since you are willing to protect me, I won’t let you down. If any of you need alchemy services, please feel free to look for me."

Setting eyes on these warriors, Yi Tianzhou flew out, tearful and bowing.

"Hehe, Tianzhou, you’re too courteous. We all received your father’s favor in the past; how could we just watch you getting persecuted?"

"But we felt ashamed for being unable to help when you were being hunted in the Third Layer Heaven!"

A middle-aged man stepped forward and said with a smile.

With these words, many Martial Artists cast friendly glances at Xiao Ye.

Although they received Dan Venerable’s favor, slashing their cultivation to enter the Third Layer Heaven was a price none could accept.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Ye stood out relatively.

"Alright, Tianzhou has returned to the Second Layer Heaven, let’s head into the city and rest for now, and then discuss how to deal with those fellows."

Yu Ming said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Everyone immediately nodded and flew towards the city.

Inside the Stone Giant City was rather simple, most notably numerous palaces scattered around, each palace separated by tens of miles, serving as places of cultivation for this group of Martial Artists.

Entering the city, Xiao Ye carefully sensed the surroundings and felt a surprise.

Among these palace clusters, many were meditating, with eight appearing quite special, seemingly transcendent, emitting faint Spiritual Power that made Xiao Ye feel pressured.

"Are they the strongest eight among those protecting Yi Tianzhou?" Xiao Ye thought.

Yu Ming had introduced them.

Now, deciding like him, numerous warriors gathered to protect Yi Tianzhou, yet truly capable of challenging the ten alchemists were these Eight Great Masters.

These Eight Great Masters, close to the top hundred in the Realm Spirit List, cultivated the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture, highly ranked among the Three Thousand Great Realms.

With the presence of these Eight Great Masters, the ten alchemists couldn’t act unchecked.

For Yi Tianzhou’s arrival, those strong ones in seclusion didn’t appear, but Yi Tianzhou respectfully saluted the palace clusters.

"Xiao Ye, there are many palaces here, feel free to choose an unoccupied one."

"Though we gather here to protect Yi Tianzhou, everyone usually meditates on their own, not disturbing each other."

"Of course, if any shocking Cosmic Spiritual Treasure is found in the Second Layer Heaven, teams can be formed to vie for it."

Yu Ming said with a smile to Xiao Ye.

"Alright, thank you, Brother Yu Ming." Xiao Ye nodded, looking at the palaces.

After entering the city, the warriors who welcomed Yi Tianzhou also prepared to return to their residences.

"Hehe!"

"Everyone, though this guy saved Dan Venerable’s son in the Third Layer Heaven, letting him join our ranks seems rather improper."

"Since protecting Dan Venerable’s son is already troublesome, are we supposed to protect someone unrelated to us too?"

At this moment, a discordant voice suddenly appeared.

A cold-faced youth flew out of a palace.

"Yuan Tianyou, you’re too much!"

Yu Ming frowned slightly, speaking in a low voice.

"Xiao Ye, don’t act impulsively. Yuan Tianyou, ranked 610 in the Realm Spirit List, is quite strong but very selfish."

Yi Tianzhou stared angrily at the opponent, sending a message to Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye had brought him into the Second Layer Heaven, such a great favor, and now the opponent wants to expel Xiao Ye?

"Too much?"

"Yu Ming, this is the Second Layer Heaven, not the trashy place of the Third Layer Heaven. Even being a master in the Third Layer Heaven here isn’t enough to save oneself."

"And this kid already offended the ten alchemists."

"The gratitude owed to him is by Dan Venerable’s son, not by us. Are we supposed to protect him too?" The youth named Yuan Tianyou said lazily.

These words brought meaningful eyes from around.

Yuan Tianyou’s words were harsh but somewhat reasonable.

"Yuan Tianyou, Xiao Ye is my benefactor; if you expel him, expel me too!" Yi Tianzhou was anxious, quickly speaking.

Yet before Yuan Tianyou could reply, a figure stepped forward.

"Since you can stay here, it proves you have an extraordinary ability and can protect yourself in the Second Layer Heaven, right?" Xiao Ye squinted and asked.

"That’s naturally the case." Yuan Tianyou smiled with pride.

Ranked 610, though not that strong, he wasn’t at the bottom in the Second Layer Heaven. As long as he didn’t act recklessly, he could definitely protect himself.

"Good!"

"If that’s so, then if I defeat you, I have the qualification to stay, right?" Xiao Ye’s eyes suddenly burst with intense light.
