"Ahem... Elder Dugu thinks too highly of me. How can I have the strength to kill a strong person in the late stage of Qi Gathering Realm? Oops, senior sister, I feel so much pain..."
Ye Chen pretended to be weak and nuzzled into Pan Ruoshui's arms again. How could he admit that he did it? How could he explain that he summoned the thunder from the sky and accidentally killed the traitor?
Saying that he can transform into the Lord of Thunder, control thunder and lightning, and strike whoever he wants?
Don't be ridiculous, okay? He doesn't want to reveal his trump card.
In order to hide his trump card, he would not admit it even if he were killed.
"Where does it hurt?"
Pan Ruoshui asked distressedly.
"My whole body hurts!"
Ye Chen hummed in her arms.
After hearing this, Pan Ruoshui felt even more distressed. He said to Elder Dugu who wanted to continue asking questions: "Elder, my junior brother is very weak now that he escaped from death. We'd better go back first. Let's talk about anything we have to say after we get back."
"...that's fine."
Elder Dugu was silent for a while and stopped asking questions.
Summoning heavenly thunder is something that at least a strong person in the Collapse of Heaven Realm can do. How could Ye Chen possibly do it?
Although he didn't believe it either, he still felt that Ye Chen was a little coy, as if he was hiding something...
If it was true as he thought, Ye Chen killed this traitor in the late stage of Qi Gathering Realm alone, then Ye Chen would be too terrifying.
Along the way of cultivation, the power gap at each level is very obvious. It is very difficult to defeat a strong person who is higher than yourself.
But Ye Chen directly crossed a huge realm, and finally killed the enemy directly...
It’s so scary just thinking about it!
But Ye Chen didn't want to say anything, and Elder Dugu didn't ask any more questions.
After all, every strong man has his own trump card, which he will never use or expose to anyone. Only when life and death are at stake, will he use one move to defeat the enemy.
It is normal for Ye Chen to have a trump card, but Ye Chen's trump card is too strong.
"Let's go back."
Pan Ruoshui held Ye Chen in front of him, stepped on the Feng Chi Sword, and flew towards the square.
"Sister, this posture is a bit shameful."
Holding his senior sister's white and smooth neck, Ye Chen said in embarrassment.
Ye Chen had dreamed of this 'princess hug' countless times in his previous life, but every time he hugged the bride by himself. Unexpectedly, this was the first time in reality that he would be hugged like this.
It's really a bit embarrassing.
Pan Ruoshui glared at Ye Chen fiercely and said angrily: "Since when do you still have to pay attention to these things, why don't you come down and leave by yourself?"
Ye Chen immediately bared his teeth and said, "Oh, my whole body hurts..."
…
Not long after, Pan Ruoshui and Elder Dugu landed in the square with Ye Chen. At this time, the elders had not dispersed. Many outer disciples, including the three geniuses, were also there, and the sect leader Fei Lie had already arrived.
Arrive.
"How is Ye Chen doing now?"
Seeing Ye Chen being held by Pan Ruoshui, Fei Lie quickly stepped forward to ask.
In his mind, Ye Chen's current potential is already comparable to that of the three geniuses. If Ye Chen makes any mistakes, it will be a huge loss to the sect.
"Fortunately, I just suffered some damage to my internal organs and am exhausted."
Pan Ruoshui looked at Ye Chen who was sleeping in his arms and replied softly.
"That's good, that's good..."
Fei Lie nodded slightly and asked Elder Xiang Dugu: "Where is the traitor?"
Elder Dugu said: "When Ruoshui and I arrived, the traitor was already dead!"
As he spoke, Elder Dugu quickly and concisely explained what he had seen before.
"What?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at each other. They thought that Elder Dugu arrived in time and rescued Ye Chen, but they did not expect that the traitor was killed before that.
"Did Ye Chen kill him?"
When Fei Lie asked this question, even he couldn't believe it.
Even the top geniuses of the three holy places cannot do it in the late stage of the Qi Gathering Realm in the Body Tempering Realm, right?
For a moment, everyone's surprised eyes were focused on Elder Dugu, making the latter smile bitterly.
Elder Dugu shook his head slightly and said: "I don't know either, but according to what Ye Chen said before, he was not the one who killed the traitor, but he doesn't know how the traitor died, because before that, he said that he
He has been knocked unconscious."
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
The cause of the traitor's death has become a mystery.
"Maybe the traitor was punished by God, or maybe a certain hermit happened to pass by and saved Ye Chen..." someone speculated.
Everyone was talking and had different opinions.
However, Fei Lie and Elder Dugu did not believe these inferences. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? This was even more outrageous than an ordinary person stepping into the imperial realm overnight!
Fei Lie took a deep look at the sleeping Ye Chen and didn't say anything else.
After a moment of silence, he asked a deacon: "Have you made the statistics clearly? How many disciples have we lost?"
The deacon reported: "Reporting to the sect master, a total of fifty-six people died and 271 were seriously injured."
"Damn aliens!" Fei Lie clenched his fists and his voice was extremely hoarse.
These are the future of the Fire Spirit Sect, and the losses are too heavy.
Fortunately, Ye Chen and the other three geniuses are all safe and sound, which can be considered a blessing among misfortunes.
Elder Dugu said guiltily: "It's all my fault that I was too late to realize that the casualties were so heavy. I'm sorry for trusting the sect leader. Please punish me!"
Fei Lie waved his hand, "This is none of your business. I just hate that the aliens are too insidious and cunning! What's more, among our human race, there are too many traitors who turn to the enemy for their own selfish desires!"
As he spoke, Fei Lie looked at everyone with red eyes, and his low tone made people feel frightened, "Don't let me know who among you is a traitor, or who in the future can't resist the temptation to become a lackey of the alien race. I
The sect leader will definitely cut you into pieces! Crushing your bones and scattering them into ashes!"
After hearing this, everyone fell silent, and the scene was silent for a while.
In the hearts of most people, they also hate traitors deeply, even more than they hate foreigners. Often, the enemies they fight head-on are not scary, but what is scary is being stabbed in the back by their 'companions'.
"The first place in this competition will be Ye Chen. Everyone should have no objections, right?"
After a moment of silence, Fei Lie adjusted his emotions and looked at the crowd again.
"No comment…"
"No!"
Everyone shook their heads.
Liu Yun and Xia Houqing looked at each other and shook their heads.
Xiao Yi also rarely expressed "no objection". At least he admitted that Ye Chen won this competition, but he would never admit that Ye Chen was stronger than him.
Fei Lie nodded and continued: "In addition, in order to commend Ye Chen for his outstanding performance, this sect leader has decided to promote Ye Chen as a 'Tianjiao'! In addition to the reward for first place, an additional reward of 10,000 spirit stones will be added. I hope
He can continue his efforts, win the treasures of heaven and earth in the Chuyang Secret Realm, and bring glory to the sect!"
After hearing this, many disciples looked at Ye Chen who was lying in Pan Ruoshui's arms with envy.
Although there are many geniuses in the sect, very few can obtain the title of sect promotion, which is a symbol of honor and status.
And there is a monthly subsidy of one thousand spirit stones.
The sect leader obviously cultivated Ye Chen as the sect's top genius, and did not hesitate to pour a large amount of resources into Ye Chen.
But they know that this is the law of survival in this world. The stronger you are, the more cultivation resources you have. The weaker you are, you can only get a little bit of the resources.
Ye Chen, who was attracting the most attention at this time, nuzzled into his senior sister's arms again and seemed to be sleeping very sweetly and comfortably.
