Chapter 1164: Hundred Battles Royal Court (Part 2)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Do we need to dispatch the Hundred Battles Army?”
A general rushed in to report. He was eager to fight Ye Shitian and test the waters.
Another general sneered and cupped his fists at Hundred Battles Demon King. “Lord Demon King, please let me kill Ye Shitian!”
“There’s no need to rush. Let Ye Shitian lead the army in. Let’s see what he’s up to.” Hundred Battles Demon King smiled as he ate the fruit. “This way, one of you can kill Ye Shitian. Whoever does so can ascend to the throne and become the new king!”
He stared at the young man approaching from afar disdainfully.
‘Ye Shitian, oh Ye Shitian, you’ve helped me out by coming all the way here. By invading my palace, you’ve given me the justification to kill you.’
‘This will make it easier to explain things to the Demon Emperor!’
Outside the palace, Ye Chen stopped in his tracks. His gaze was domineering as he pointed his sword at the Hundred Battles Royal Court and shouted, “Hundred Battles Demon King, even if you want to beat a dog, you have to look who its master is. I’ve given you a chance, but you failed to take it. Now, get out here and face your death!”
His voice was infused with his power, so everyone in the royal court heard it. It even caused many demonic beasts to bleed from their ears!
“How dare you threaten me!”
“Ye Shitian, you came all the way here to die!”
The Hundred Battles Demon King led his generals and flew out. He looked at Ye Chen and said, “You’re not qualified to be my opponent. I have my left and right deputies under me. You should fight them first. Only after you defeat them will you be qualified to be my opponent!”
“If you are defeated by them, I’m sorry, but you’ll have to use your life as compensation. At the same time, one of them will become the new king!”
“How about it?”
“If you accept the challenge, then fight. Only by defeating my two generals will you be qualified to fight me!”
“If you don’t accept, the Royal Court will come together and destroy you!”
This was what Hundred Battles Demon King had planned as an explanation to the Demon Emperor and Blood Spirit Clan as to why his subordinate had become a demon king.
“Challenge?”
“A new king?”
Ye Chen smiled coldly and looked at the two generals not far away. He sneered, “Trash like you two dare to challenge me?”
He pointed his sword at Hundred Battles Demon King and smiled. “You old b*stard, if I fight you, I might need to use my trump cards to defeat you. However, for those two ants… Are you sure you want to throw their lives away?”
“Hundred Battles Demon King!”
“I, Ye Shitian, will also make a bet with you. Do you dare to accept?”
“I can accept the challenge of your generals, or even your challenge!”
“I will kill all challengers. After that, everything that belongs to the Hundred Battles Royal Court will belong to me!”
He paused for a moment and smiled and continued, “If I lose, the Radiant Hall will belong to you. How about that?”
“Really?” Hundred Battles Demon King’s eyes darkened and a sinister smile appeared on his mottled face. Once word of this bet got out, his actions in killing Ye Chen and taking over the Destiny Royal Court would look even more justified. Even the Demon Emperor would have no cause for complaint!
“Of course, because the three of you are too weak, the Radiant Hall will never belong to you. Come at me prepared to die!”
Ye Chen swung his sword. His sword qi tore apart the array formation in front of him as he shouted, “Radiant Hall, back off!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
General Fengyun, General Tian Wen, as well as the other demonic beasts retreated to a safe distance, full of confidence in Ye Chen’s ability to win.
“Arrogant!”
“Ye Shitian, I will take your life!”
The general beside the Hundred Battles Demon King leapt forward. Endless clusters of flowers grew under his feet and condensed into a dazzling flower bridge. The general stepped onto the bridge, his arms holding a double-edged sword, and an ancient and quiet aura circulated around his body.
He unleashed a mighty slash, infused with streams of golden life force.
“One sword strike is enough to destroy you!”
“You’re just a mere human. I slaughtered countless humans a thousand years ago. What’s one more to me?”
A human less than a hundred years old?
Did he think that because he killed the Destiny Demon King and reached the Overlord Body realm he was invincible?
What a joke!
“This battle is almost over!”
“That’s right. Look at Ye Shitian. He has no intention of dodging.”
“It must be because the space has been sealed by General Ling Yun’s blood essence power. He can’t move!”
Two fifth-level Supreme Emperor realm generals chatted with each other, and their disdainful expressions were mirrored on the rest of the members of the Hundred Battles Demon Army.
Whoosh!
General Ling Yun’s sword was filled with boundless divine might as it tried to slice off Ye Chen’s head!
This sword contained endless blood energy, and even an ordinary sixth-level Supreme Emperor realm human cultivator who did not cultivate body refinement would not be able to withstand it.
However, Ye Chen had reached the third level of the Overlord Body realm. His body seemed to vibrate briefly as his eyes exuded a sense of supremacy.
He suddenly raised his right hand, and his clothes began to tear as his muscles expanded. His skin turned blood-red, and his powerful blood essence erupted. Blood energy surrounded his right arm as he extended it to grab the incoming sword.
Bang!
A violent explosion erupted, but the sword was firmly blocked by Ye Chen’s right hand. The shockwaves that rippled out destroyed trees and rocks in the surroundings, while forcing the generals on the opposing side to retreat.
“I even blocked an immortal artifact with my bare hands, much less this crappy spiritual weapon.”
“Break!” Ye Chen shouted softly. His five fingers exerted tremendous force, and a crisp sound was heard as the sword shattered into fragments.
to pull it upward. The force was the opposite of the sword’s body. A crisp sword cry was heard, accompanied by the fragments spreading in all directions.
Ye Chen then flung the broken tip of the sword, which shot out like a meteor, leaving a fiery red trail as it headed straight for General Ling Yun!
