Chapter 2568: Chapter 2569: The Overbearing Ye Luo
Princess Xiu, being naturally astute, immediately understood upon hearing Ye Luo’s words. The expression on the Vice Clan Leader’s face also grew complicated.
However, the Grand Elder of the Kunshan Tribe immediately flew into a rage.
Yet, before the Grand Elder could speak, several disciples stepped forward, surrounding Ye Luo, each eyeing him with predatory intent.
"Boy, are you seeking death? Not only did you insult our Grand Elder, but you also insulted our Kunshan Tribe!"
"This is truly rebellious; such a person must be executed!"
Then, these young men actually attacked Ye Luo.
Though they did not know Ye Luo’s exact standing on Qingxiu Peak, seeing that he was around their age, how formidable could he be?
With several of them ganging up on Ye Luo, even if they couldn’t kill him, they could at least skin him alive!
Of course, these young disciples were secluded in their training and hadn’t heard of Ye Luo’s name, but the Grand Elder certainly knew who Ye Luo was, since he had heard a bit about the battle with the Moonwater Tribe before!
It’s just that now the Kunshan Tribe was entirely capable of destroying Qingxiu Peak. Would Ye Luo dare to exert himself fully? It would bring unprecedented disaster upon Qingxiu Peak!
Therefore, he was confident that Ye Luo would merely block the attacks of these few men at most, not daring to hit back, much less strike with deadly force!
Facing these attacks, Ye Luo smiled slightly. These individuals were merely cultivators at the third or fourth level of the Heavenly Martial Realm. Though they had decent aptitude, compared to talents like Princess Xiu, they were far inferior, let alone compared to Ye Luo.
Even if Ye Luo did nothing, they couldn’t harm his physical body.
However, Ye Luo had no intention of doing nothing.
Dao Fist!
Ye Luo launched an extremely sharp strike, a Dao Fist that, with the completion of his Arhat Golden Body, was even slightly superior to the Lingyun Sword Technique in power!
These disciples initially showed disdain, as Ye Luo’s fist appeared slow and seemingly weak. It was questionable whether it could even reach them, let alone harm them.
However, they were mistaken; the simplicity of the Great Dao was beyond their comprehension as they hadn’t grasped the Dao Tempo.
"Not good!" the Grand Elder exclaimed in shock.
Yet, even the Grand Elder had not comprehended Dao Tempo, merely approaching its threshold.
He had long heard that Ye Luo understood Dao Tempo, but didn’t expect him to dare make a move today! And it was with deadly intent.
In almost the blink of an eye, Ye Luo’s fist reached one of the disciples, at which point the disciple’s expression drastically changed.
However, before he could react, his body was shattered by Ye Luo’s punch!
The power of Dao Tempo was so fierce that it was beyond his resistance, and besides, he was no body cultivator. In Ye Luo’s eyes, his flesh was no different from tofu blocks.
"Boy, how dare you kill my disciple!" the Grand Elder roared, his beard bristling in anger.
"Hmph! So what?"
Ye Luo snorted coldly, and with another Dao Fist, he struck toward another young disciple.
And that wasn’t all—Ye Luo, in an instant, delivered several punches, and immediately, the young disciples surrounding him perished one by one!
At this moment, not only the Grand Elder but even Princess Xiu and the Vice Clan Leader were left stunned on the spot.
Ye Luo had gone too far, actually exterminating the disciples brought by the Grand Elder!
Didn’t this equate to forming a deep blood feud with the Kunshan Tribe?
"Very well, is this the stance of your Qingxiu Peak? My Kunshan Tribe will certainly seek justice for these disciples—Princess Xiu, do you tacitly agree to this?"
The Grand Elder knew that even if he made a move, he might not be a match for Ye Luo, so why would he disgrace himself further?
"Indeed, Young Master Ye’s decision is my decision," Princess Xiu responded lightly.
She now realized that negotiating with the Kunshan Tribe is akin to scheming with a tiger, yielding no favorable outcome! The Kunshan Tribe, from the start, never regarded Qingxiu Peak seriously.
"Very well, so be it. Your Qingxiu Peak, then, awaits its destruction!" With that, he turned and was about to walk out of the hall.
"Wait, did I permit you to leave?" Ye Luo’s icy voice resonated.
Hearing this, the Grand Elder laughed in rage, "Boy, you are exceedingly arrogant. I originally thought the disciples of the Kunshan Tribe were conceited enough, but now it seems they’re not even close to you!"
"I asked, did I permit you to leave?" Ye Luo continued to coldly interrogate, completely uninterested in the Grand Elder’s nonsense.
"You!" The Grand Elder’s face immediately darkened; Ye Luo gave him no face whatsoever.
Ye Luo, not bothering with further conversation, struck out with a slap.
"Boy, how dare you!" The Grand Elder was utterly shocked, not expecting Ye Luo to dare act against him.
But Ye Luo’s strike was no joke, immensely powerful, containing the Dao Tempo.
With a muffled sound, the Grand Elder was struck down, flying backward.
The Grand Elder was even more shocked in his heart; Ye Luo was far more formidable than he had imagined.
However, Ye Luo afforded him no time, delivering another slap.
Initially, the Grand Elder had been injured by the first strike; this one, by any means, could not be withstood.
The next moment, Ye Luo grasped him by the throat, lifting his body high.
Ye Luo completely used Dao Tempo to seal off his spiritual power and Power of Laws, which meant now he was nothing more than an ordinary man.
To escape from Ye Luo’s grasp was utterly impossible.
"Boy, you... you can’t kill me, the Kunshan Tribe... won’t let you off!" The Grand Elder, face flushed red, squeezed out a few words with difficulty.
"In my eyes, you are just an old fool who doesn’t know his place. I could easily crush you right now!" Ye Luo replied coldly.
The Grand Elder was truly afraid now; he understood in his heart that Ye Luo could crush him more easily than an ant.
"Ye Luo, I was wrong. Spare me, and I’ll do whatever you want! Just spare my life!" The Grand Elder began to plead for mercy.
"Then tell me, why has the Kunshan Tribe suddenly grown stronger?" Ye Luo immediately inquired.
Princess Xiu and the Vice Clan Leader perked up their ears as well.
"This I truly do not know; it’s a secret of the clan, beyond my knowledge!" the Grand Elder promptly explained.
"Is that so? Then what use is there in keeping you alive; might as well crush you!" Ye Luo said, and with that, his grip suddenly tightened, rendering the Grand Elder’s body somewhat rigid.
At this point, if his body were obliterated, it would mean true demise, as his other powers were all sealed by Ye Luo.
