CHAPTER 705: CHAPTER 704 FOUR DIRECTIONS YUN JI (3/5)

Seeing Ye Xin stand up to shield him, Yang Chen immediately panicked and struggled to stand, saying, "Xinxin! Come back!"

Ye Xin shook her head and walked toward Kunze, saying as she walked, "This time, I will never let you get hurt for me again, and I will not go back with him! If there’s a fight, I’ll be there!"

"Ye Xin!" Yang Chen panicked and grabbed Ye Xin’s arm, saying in a deep voice, "This is my battle; you just need to watch from the side!"

Although Yang Chen felt warm inside because of Ye Xin’s actions, he absolutely would not let his woman stand in front of him to fight for him.

Ye Xin looked at Yang Chen with deep affection and gently shook her head.

"My love! Knowing you, loving you, is the greatest happiness of my life. So, I absolutely won’t allow anyone to hurt you anymore!" Yang Chen had already done enough for her, and she absolutely could not let the events at the top of Flame Palace repeat.

If Yang Chen truly becomes that way again because of her, then what meaning would her life hold?

This matter started because of her, so it naturally should be resolved by her.

"Silly girl!" Yang Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don’t worry, no one can hurt me, and certainly no one can hurt you. With me here, none of that will happen!"

If, as a man, you can’t even protect your woman’s safety, what kind of man would you be?

"But..." Ye Xin knew very well that Kunze’s strength was too formidable, not something they could contend with.

"No buts!" Yang Chen resolutely said, "With me here, everything will be fine!"

Kunze watched the two, his face darkened.

He could see that Ye Xin’s heart completely belonged to Yang Chen now; aside from Yang Chen, nothing else could fit—including loyalty to the Shangqing Sect!

"Ye Xin! You are being stubborn!" Kunze said solemnly, trying to persuade Ye Xin.

Ye Xin looked at Kunze and gently shook her head, "This isn’t stubbornness, it’s passion in my heart. If you want to hurt Yang Chen, you’ll have to walk over my corpse first!"

Hearing this, Kunze frowned, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.

"In that case!" Kunze said solemnly, "Then I will kill Yang Chen and take you back! Time can smooth away everything; it can also erase all your memories of Yang Chen!"

"You know nothing of love!" Yang Chen stepped forward, blocking Ye Xin, staring at Kunze, "Today, let’s see if I can defeat you at the Grain Avoidance Stage!"

With that, Yang Chen closed his eyes, and the Nine Revolutions Supreme Skill within him started operating frantically.

Suddenly, the air around Yang Chen moved automatically, forming a whirlwind with Yang Chen at its center.

"And me!" Ye Xin stood alongside Yang Chen, the inheritance from the Soul Capturing Platform—the authentic Shangqing Skill—began to operate.

Behind Ye Xin, a giant Fire Phoenix slowly emerged, and a vast power began to surge.

In an instant, the sky turned orange-red, as if ablaze!

Kunze was shocked to see this.

He hadn’t expected that Ye Xin’s Fire Phoenix bloodline had awakened to such an extent!

He knew that if Ye Xin were truly provoked and driven to a desperate state, Ye Xin might overdraw her Fire Phoenix power to fight him!

This was something he did not want to see.

At this moment, the huge momentum on Yang Chen began to merge with Ye Xin’s Fire Phoenix.

The power of the two individuals merged together, almost surpassing Kunze.

Even from the whirlwind centered around them, rang out the sounds of dragon roars and phoenix cries.

Hearing these sounds, Kunze’s expression changed more dramatically.

"This... this actually is... actually is..." Kunze seemed to have discovered something incredible, his eyes flashing with ecstatic expression.

"Yang Chen! Ye Xin!" Kunze hurriedly called out.

...

Outside Nietai Mountain.

On the armored vehicle.

Black Night, seeing Yang Chen being blown away by Kunze, immediately stood up, and the other people also stood up, looking toward Black Night, waiting for his instructions.

"Seems like we should take action now!" Black Night said coldly.

The others also picked up their weapons and equipment.

"Move out!" At Black Night’s command, several people rushed swiftly towards the mountain.

In the distance.

Zhou Botao’s pupils contracted sharply upon seeing this scene.

"Damn it!" Zhou Botao cursed, dropping the binoculars in his hand and kicking his foot fiercely.

Crack! Boom!

The large tree embraced by two people suddenly shattered, while Zhou Botao’s body shot out like a cannonball.

Jin Chen.

The Ye family!

Ye Liangcai’s command center.

Through the images transmitted by their people, Ye Liangcai saw Yang Chen being blown away by Kunze’s strike, and immediately slapped the table, grabbed the confidential phone on the table, and shouted, "Everyone! Move out!"

Artificial sea.

In the old chief’s study.

At this moment, the old chief was watching the live images on a tablet and said solemnly, "Is it starting?"

A voice came from the dark corner, "It has already started!"

The old chief nodded, his expression complex.

No matter how you look at it, Yang Chen is a hero of Flame Country, and doing this does betray his principles, and also Flame Country’s principles.

But to fully control Flame Country and prevent chaos, he must do it.

Thinking of this, the old chief sighed, his body slumped in the chair, as if all his strength had been drained away.

Ningchuan.

Defense zone.

Elder Zhuo’s study.

After receiving the news, Elder Zhuo immediately shouted angrily, "Bring out all the weapons; everyone, go over there! If necessary, directly fire weapons!"

After saying this, Elder Zhuo’s face turned slightly pale.

What he did had already violated many principles, but for Yang Chen, he must do it. His son, Zhuo Jingyu, had already sacrificed for this country, and he absolutely would not allow anything to happen to Yang Chen again!

In an instant, centered around Nietai Mountain, forces converged from all directions, all assembling at Nietai Mountain.

On Nietai Mountain.

Yang Chen and Ye Xin opened their eyes, feeling the strength at that moment was incomparably stronger than before!

Although their final trump card had its upgrades, it would certainly not be like this.

The two looked at each other involuntarily.

The first thing Yang Chen saw was the giant Fire Phoenix behind Ye Xin, seemingly burning. Though it looked like air twisting, to the eyes of a Cultivator, it was indeed a massive Fire Phoenix.

Ye Xin, too, when she looked at Yang Chen, found his aura greatly changed, as if he were a supreme emperor, his every word and action carried immense power, almost able to speak and make laws!

They instantly understood—it was the other who had granted them such tremendous power.

With hearts in sync, with not much need for words, they understood everything.

They exchanged a smile, stretched out their hands, and intertwined their fingers with each other.
