CHAPTER 708: CHAPTER 707 WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS (1/3)

The members of the Dragon Tooth Squad almost burst into laughter upon hearing this.

The changes were indeed too surprising.

But since Kunze said so, it at least proves that no one dares to touch Yang Chen and the others now.

The Fifth Elder still seemed fierce, pulling the Fourth Elder aside and asking, "Fourth Elder, did I hear it wrong?"

The Fourth Elder replied gloomily, "If you think you heard it wrong, then you didn’t."

The Fifth Elder was completely baffled.

At this moment, Kunze spoke another sentence that completely shattered the Fifth Elder, "If you dare to take action against Yang Chen, it means you’re challenging our Shangqing Sect!"

Everyone was utterly dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Yang Chen was also full of disbelief, staring incredulously at Kunze. Was Kunze out of his mind? Or was his brain muddled when he was using the cultivation technique earlier?

Ye Xin was equally puzzled, utterly unable to understand why Kunze would make such a massive change, completely incomprehensible.

The disciples of Shangqing Sect could no longer remain calm.

"What’s going on with the Sect Master?"

"This is completely wrong!"

"Has the Sect Master been threatened?"

"That’s impossible, who could threaten the Sect Master!"

"True, indeed!"

"Why can Yang Chen represent our sect?"

"Yeah! What is he anyway!"

"Why!"

"Yang Chen should just die, why care about him!"

...

Robbing someone of their goddess is like the hatred of a stolen wife. It shows how much these inner sect disciples resent Yang Chen.

The Fifth Elder could no longer hold back and rushed in front of Kunze, whispering, "Sect Master! What are you doing?"

Kunze glanced at the Fifth Elder without responding and continued, "I demand all of you!"

Kunze pointed at the patrol teams present, as well as the two teams who had arrived and Black Night and his team, coldly stating, "Leave Kunze Mountain immediately, otherwise, our sect will consider you as provocations!"

Upon hearing this, the Fifth Elder could no longer hold it in, grabbed Kunze, and said in a deep voice, "Are you crazy?"

Kunze immediately glared at the Fifth Elder and said lowly, "Shut up! Am I the Sect Master or are you?"

"But, now you..." The Fifth Elder felt Kunze had gone mad.

"No buts!" Kunze said gravely, "Obey my orders!"

Looking at Kunze’s serious demeanor, the Fifth Elder knew Kunze wasn’t joking.

But he couldn’t understand why Kunze was doing this.

Obviously, Yang Chen was their enemy, so why did he suddenly become their VIP, treated with such respect, even at the cost of turning against the allies here—that really puzzled Kunze.

But at this point, the Fifth Elder had nothing more to say.

The man in black was completely baffled.

He was no longer sure whether he should make a move.

Because before coming, the old chief had told him information about the Shangqing Sect. Although he didn’t know much, according to the old chief, the Shangqing Sect was extremely powerful, and even the old chief feared them greatly.

So now that the people of Shangqing Sect had spoken, he didn’t know whether he should continue with his actions.

Jin Chen.

The old chief watched the scene, his face sullen.

The development of events was too beyond his expectations.

Originally, he intended to utilize the hand of the Shangqing Sect to eliminate Yang Chen, but he never thought Yang Chen would be so formidable, capable of opposing the Shangqing Sect.

Likewise, he was quite disappointed in the Shangqing Sect’s strength. In the old chief’s mind, the Shangqing Sect should be extremely powerful, indomitable. But now, being beaten like this by Yang Chen alone was really unexpected.

To anyone, the conflict between Yang Chen and the Shangqing Sect had reached an irreconcilable stage. However, everything that happened now puzzled the old chief immensely.

Did Kunze stand up for Yang Chen?

Moreover, claiming that opposing Yang Chen was opposing their Shangqing Sect, this... This made no sense at all.

But the situation now indeed was as such.

Looking at the scene, the old chief furrowed his brows.

The confrontation among various teams made everyone cautious about making any rash moves.

But the old chief was confident that if Kunze did not intervene in this matter, with Black Night and his team making a move, they could definitely take Yang Chen.

Even with the Ye family and the Zhuo family teams, and the Dragon Tooth Squad present, they were insignificant.

In the face of pure power, these people were simply nothing.

However, now the Shangqing Sect unexpectedly stepped in, making it difficult for the old chief to make a decision.

But looking at Kunze’s determined attitude, the old chief knew the following plans could no longer be implemented.

"Sigh!" The old chief sighed deeply, collapsed onto his chair, and said in a deep voice, "Let them all retreat!"

"Yes!"

...

Black Night stared at Kunze and Yang Chen, utterly uncertain how the two who were enemies just moments ago suddenly turned into this.

At this moment, Black Night heard the command in his ear and his expression softened significantly.

He was only obeying orders to execute the mission; Yang Chen’s life or death was unrelated to him. The old chief said to kill Yang Chen, so he would execute, and now the old chief said to retreat, he naturally obliged.

Although he was unsure of what kind of existence the Shangqing Sect was, he knew very well that the person in front of him was definitely not simple.

Moreover, the aura emanating from Yang Chen and Ye Xin was also extremely powerful.

Now that the old chief sent a message ordering retreat, it was naturally the best choice.

"Retreat!" Black Night commanded, leaping and disappearing in the forest canopy.

The others followed suit.

Zhou Botao watched Black Night and the others leave, exhaling a long breath.

Black Night as the team captain naturally had reason; among these people, Black Night’s strength was extremely terrifying, withdrawing without a fight was the best outcome. If it indeed came to fighting, he had no confidence.

After the men in black left, it seemed the patrol teams also received information and retreated one after another.

The other two teams also withdrew.

The arriving teams, the weapon vehicles that appeared, also vanished somewhere.

Suddenly, the mountain was silent.

Earlier, like a storm, dense teams and battles lurking overhead ready to explode at any moment, now all vanished into thin air.

The Dragon Tooth Squad exchanged glances, a sense of relief. But soon, their gaze turned toward the Shangqing Sect side.

Although they didn’t understand why Kunze suddenly changed his attitude, the potential threat from Shangqing Sect was still present, and they couldn’t relax.

Looking at the teams leaving in great numbers, Yang Chen furrowed his brows.

He could tell these teams probably came from three sides and he could guess that.

But Yang Chen couldn’t understand why Kunze did this.

He looked at Kunze and frowned, "What’s your purpose exactly? Ye Xin is my woman, and no one is taking her away!"

Kunze stared at Yang Chen, scrutinizing him carefully but didn’t respond.

Yang Chen furrowed his brows tightly; Kunze’s gaze made him very uncomfortable.

Ye Xin held Yang Chen’s hand tightly, warily watching Kunze. She too felt Kunze’s gaze was off.
