Chapter 1068 - 1067: The Terrifying Sect Leader of Taotian Palace

As the man's voice fell, the entire scene plunged into dead silence.

Everyone stared in shock, unable to believe that someone dared to openly challenge Su Moran! It must be noted, since Ye Qingchen annihilated Celestial Immortals, he has become a taboo in the East Sea.

Moreover, Su Moran has now publicly stepped into being a Celestial Immortal?

"Is he too bold? Does he not value his life?"

"Dare to challenge Miss Su? This kid is asking for trouble!"

"Exactly, Mr. Ye's power is immense; he eliminated a Celestial Immortal with Earth Immortal cultivation. Now Miss Su has also entered being a Celestial Immortal... Saying such things in public is literally asking for death!"

Everyone was in a heated discussion.

Only Su Moran's pupils contracted, and she exclaimed:

"Is it you?"

The visitor was none other than Yu Hongqing!

"Junior sister, I didn't expect that we'd meet again so soon, did you?" Yu Hongqing held his hands behind his back, his face full of mocking laughter, "It took me thirteen years to break through to being a Celestial Immortal, and yet you took less than three years! Your talent even makes me a bit envious!"

The crowd was about to burst into action, with several guards unsheathing their weapons, ready to teach this reckless man a lesson.

But upon hearing these words, their expressions froze!

"What?"

"Is he Miss Su's senior brother?"

"Doesn't that make him the Taotian Palace's Sect Leader?"

Everyone's eyes widened.

Then.

What does her senior brother intend by coming here now?

Yu Hongqing paid no attention to the surrounding people, still smirking as he walked toward Su Moran, "Will you obediently surrender, or will you come back with me?"

Step! Step! Step!

In the eyes of others.

Yu Hongqing walked very slowly, step by step.

But in Su Moran's eyes, it was an entirely different picture; with each step he took, his figure seemed to grow suddenly larger in her view. In the end, he even seemed to transform into a giant that could hold up the sky and earth. Before him, Su Moran felt as if she had turned into mere dust!

"Why do I feel this way?" Su Moran's heart trembled, "Clearly he's a Celestial Immortal, and so am I..."

"Even among Celestial Immortals, there are differences..." As if he understood what Su Moran was thinking, Yu Hongqing laughed sinisterly, "In this world, I am the ruler! Junior sister, come obediently with me back to Taotian Palace!"

Step! Step! Step!

With each step Yu Hongqing took, Su Moran was forced to retreat a step. The surrounding crowd, in this circumstance, seemed to be under a Body Fixation Technique, as if their souls had completely separated from their bodies, unable to even move a finger!

This is the power of a Celestial Immortal!

"No good, if this continues, I might not even have the courage to fight!"

Su Moran suddenly bit down on her tongue, a wave of fighting spirit surged to her head. Facing Yu Hongqing who approached slowly like a lion, at this moment she instead advanced boldly rather than retreat, stepping forward with force, raising her elegant fist, aiming at the front and striking!

This punch, seemingly casual and ordinary, fell in the eyes of everyone as if heaven and earth had turned upside down, the sun and moon reversed, as if all of existence converged onto her elegant fist!

Moreover.

The power of this punch was several times more terrifying than when Ye Qingchen used the 'Ten Thousand Treasures Sword Scripture' to shatter Zou Ji Dao's seawater-refined true form.

Where her fist passed, the void trembled, creating ripples, and in an instant it transformed into a towering wave! As if to completely engulf everything in existence!

Faced with this heaven-shocking blow, Yu Hongqing merely smiled faintly and raised his right hand.

In the eyes of others.

This would surely be an earth-shattering strike.

But the outcome was precisely the opposite.

Su Moran's punch landed in Yu Hongqing's palm, and that violent, terrifying power instantly vanished like a stone cow sinking into the sea, becoming nonexistent, with all phenomena disappearing!

"I told you, in this world, I am the ruler!" Yu Hongqing squinted his eyes with a sinister grin, "It seems like you still don't understand!"

Boom!

As the words fell.

Yu Hongqing grabbed with his right hand.

In that instant, Su Moran felt a giant force strike, her entire being swiftly spun, and was slammed hard onto the ground.

"Crack!"

In that moment.

The vast Cyan Cloud Island trembled, innumerable cracks frantically spread from Su Moran's body. With just this one strike, the entire Cyan Cloud Island was already split and shattered!

"Wow!"

Even though Su Moran's cultivation reached Celestial Immortal, she could not withstand such an attack, as her entire skeleton appeared cracked, her internal organs shifted, and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

And at this moment, Yu Hongqing brought down a foot.

"Boom!"

Truly like a meteorite hitting the ground, thunder bursting.

This moment, the already precarious Cyan Cloud Island was directly crushed by this stomp.

"Where is Ye Qingchen?" Yu Hongqing squinted his eyes and said.

Su Moran was about to fight for her life, when involuntarily she opened her mouth and said, "Ye Qingchen left Star Extreme Scattered Islands several days ago and went into the Enchanting Sea Region!"

"Enchanting Sea Region?"

Yu Hongqing squinted his eyes, scanning around.

No one dared meet his gaze directly, as if merely looking once would cause their soul to be torn apart.

"In that case! I'll wait for him for three months!"

Yu Hongqing said plainly:

"I want to see how he'll save you this time!"

"And you, little vixen..."

Yu Hongqing suddenly turned his gaze towards Bai Ji not far away.

Although his tone was calm, the people in the scene were terrified, everyone bowed their heads, no one dared face the edge of the Taotian Palace Sect Leader's power. Even Su Moran, who had stepped into being a Celestial Immortal, could not withstand a single move from Yu Hongqing!

...

Taotian Palace Sect Leader personally arriving!

This news, once released, swept through the entire East Sea Star Extreme Scattered Islands like a category twelve typhoon.

Originally, Su Moran who was about to break through to being a Celestial Immortal was already like a radiant star. Many people even awaited Su Moran's entrance into being a Celestial Immortal to offer congratulations, but who expected Yu Hongqing to suddenly appear?

And he subdued Su Moran completely with just one move?

How powerful is Yu Hongqing actually?

People are not privy to know.

They only know Yu Hongqing came across the sea, now arriving in the East Sea to confront Ye Qingchen. He currently resides atop the shattered Cyan Cloud Island, waiting for Ye Qingchen's return to avenge the Taotian Palace's humiliation!

For a time.

All eyes focused on Cyan Cloud Island.

One day, two days, three days...

One month, two months, three months...

However, as time passed, Ye Qingchen still did not appear.

"Looks like Ye Qingchen is scared of Yu Hongqing and doesn't dare to show himself!" Many thought in their hearts.

And at this moment.

In the Enchanting Sea Region, Ye Qingchen was exploring the underwater palace, reaching the final stage.
