Chapter 585 - 588: Killed with a Single Palm

"Do you know what you’re saying?"

Ye Qingchen’s eyes lowered.

These youths looked like they came from elite family backgrounds, relying on their family’s influence to act recklessly, with no regard for others. But they didn’t realize that, being a Celestial Venerable, there was a pride that couldn’t tolerate being humiliated face-to-face.

Moreover, Ye Qingchen’s Celestial Venerable cultivation wasn’t built on family resources, but earned through hard battles, stepping over mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Absolutely not to be insulted!

"I said you’re a worthless piece of trash!" Zhao Mo sneered, oblivious to the chill settling around him. "You think you’re a Celestial Venerable? What a joke!"

"This Longevity Pavilion isn’t a place for trash like you, so get out of here!"

"Quickly, get out! Or I’ll personally throw you out!"

The lackeys behind Zhao Mo jeered arrogantly.

The crowd watched the scene, sizing up Zhao Mo and his group.

Those who knew Zhao Mo couldn’t help but exclaim, "Isn’t that Zhao Mo? He’s the second son of Profound Sword City! A real Demon King of Chaos!"

"So it’s him, no wonder he’s so brazen!"

"Sigh, if he’s got his eyes on you, it’s best to leave; otherwise, you won’t die, but you’ll shed a layer of skin."

They spoke with eyes full of pity directed towards Ye Qingchen and the Sea of Zhou duo.

The murmurs surrounded Zhao Mo, making him even more complacent. His mocking gaze swept over Ye Qingchen, full of disdain as he said, "Still not leaving? Do you really want me to make a move?"

Only the Sea of Zhou shook his head in silent disapproval.

You’re merely a Celestial Saint Seventh Layer, yet you dare act so arrogant before a Celestial Venerable?

As expected.

Ye Qingchen sighed softly and said:

"What are you, to flaunt your power before me?"

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mo was about to flip out.

But Ye Qingchen wouldn’t bother with him, instead, he simply commanded:

"Kneel!"

In an instant.

An invisible Powerful Qi burst forth, pressing down on Zhao Mo in a heartbeat. Zhao Mo felt struck by lightning, as if crushed by an unseeable Mount Tai.

"Boom!"

A thundering sound.

He was forcefully made to kneel by this horrific power, creating a small pit in the ground with his knees, surrounded by a web of cracks!

"Presumptuous!"

"What are you doing?"

"Release Young Master Zhao immediately!"

The lackeys behind Zhao Mo turned pale with horror, drawing their weapons, ready to attack.

A guard-like middle-aged man, with a chilling gaze, added, "You little bastard, how dare you!"

"Boom!"

In an angry shout.

He grasped a black long spear that appeared in his hand, causing it to shimmer coldly as he shook it, like a raging dragon roaring, aiming straight for Ye Qingchen’s forehead!

Thud!

The void trembled violently, the spear light tearing the air, emitting a piercing sound, seemingly capable of tearing through the sky!

As it charged forward, it stirred a wind several yards high, like a massive wave rolling in, crashing forcefully!

"Zhao Han has made his move!"

Seeing the middle-aged man, the crowd couldn’t help but cheer.

Zhao Han.

He was Zhao Mo’s guard, with Half-Step Celestial Venerable cultivation, known as a formidable presence in Profound Sword City despite not being among the top. Especially with this ’Dragon Ascension Spear’, it gathered Qi Blood in a strike.

Even facing a Celestial Venerable, he showed no fear!

"Kid, die now!"

Seeing this, Zhao Mo felt a surge of satisfaction. Dare to insult me, now it’s time for you to pay the price. The honor of Profound Sword City will be washed with blood!

The lackeys behind him also sneered, not believing Ye Qingchen could withstand Zhao Han’s strike.

One of them mockingly scanned Ye Qingchen, seeing him stand still, and sneered, "The kid’s been scared stupid, not even daring to move..."

However.

The words had barely left his mouth when he froze completely.

Under the incredulous gazes of the crowd, Ye Qingchen furrowed his brows:

"Courting death!"

With a casual lift of his right hand, he waved lightly.

This wave, casual to the extreme, like flicking dust away, yet to the crowd, it appeared earth-shattering, wildly intense!

Thud!

A terrifying, overwhelming force burst directly through his palm, akin to a deity’s mighty hand, raising an unstoppable tsunami. The wind engulfing forward seemed child-like compared to this force, utterly shattered, further crushing onto Zhao Han.

Faced with this dreadful force, Zhao Han was instantly reduced to powder, his entire being obliterated without a trace.

Silence fell, utterly soundless.

"Clang!"

One boy, stunned, dropped his weapon to the ground, oblivious, while the others widened their eyes, completely amazed at Ye Qingchen.

A single wave, effortlessly vanquishing a full-strength Half-Step Celestial Venerable, could this power be doubted?

In that moment.

They felt a chill sweep over, engulfing them in fear!

Only the Sea of Zhou shook his head silently.

He had anticipated this from the beginning.

"Celestial Venerable, you really are a Celestial Venerable!"

Zhao Mo trembled.

As Ye Qingchen’s gaze turned to him, Zhao Mo shook uncontrollably, repeatedly bowing in apology:

"I didn’t know the presence of a Celestial Venerable, please forgive me!"

"Weren’t you about to attack me? Weren’t you going to drive me out? Why submit now?" Ye Qingchen asked with a half-smile.

"I was blind to Mount Tai! Please forgive me, Celestial Venerable, I’ll leave now!"

Zhao Mo tasted bitterness.

Reaching Celestial Venerable, becoming an inner sect disciple of Taotian Palace, was already a certainty.

Moreover.

In the Kunlun Realm, while the Spiritual Qi was abundant, reaching Celestial Venerable wasn’t easy. Mostly, it was for major sect disciples, or those with exceptional talent!

Such individuals would have a limitless future, beyond his reach.

Though arrogant, he wasn’t foolish.

This was hitting an iron plate.

Without hesitation, he scrambled up, as did the terrified lackeys, hoping to leave swiftly.

"Did I say you could leave?" Ye Qingchen narrowed his eyes, smiling, "Leave all your money and valuables behind!"

"Huh?"

Everyone’s jaw dropped.

This was broad daylight robbery!
