The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1740: Chapter 1740: Two Paths

A group led by Zhao Ming soon arrived nearby.

"Haha, Tu Clan Chief, Alchemist Jing Yan, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet you here again," Zhao Ming said with feigned sincerity.

"This is what you call fate," said the Clan Leader of the Shan Clan.

The Shan Clan has also joined the fray.

"Yes, indeed a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see all the Clan Leaders here again," Jing Yan said while smiling.

"However, I’m in a hurry, so I won’t chat with all the Clan Leaders for long," Jing Yan prepared to excuse himself.

"Alchemist Jing Yan, don’t be in such a rush to leave. Since we’ve met, let’s chat a bit more. We all admire your alchemy skills," Zhao Ming said with a smirk.

"Clan Leader Zhao, what do you mean by this?" Tu Sen frowned and asked.

"Tu Clan Chief, can’t you see what we mean?" Zhao Ming’s voice suddenly darkened.

"I really can’t see. Why don’t you just tell me what you mean," Jing Yan squinted and asked.

Opposite stands a group of four Clan Leaders or Supreme Elders from Five-Star forces. Obviously, they weren’t here just to chat with Jing Yan.

"Jing Yan, do you think you can leave the Shamanic Clouds Domain safely after killing the elder of my Dongfang Family? So naive! Although my Dongfang Family isn’t a Five-Star force, its elder isn’t someone you can kill trivially," Dongfang Ye stepped forward, pointing at Jing Yan and said sternly.

"Oh, so Dongfang Ye, you’re here too. What? Are you seeking revenge for those dead worms?" Jing Yan stared at Dongfang Ye, as if he had just noticed him.

In fact, Jing Yan had long noticed Dongfang Ye among the group opposite.

"Hmph, I originally wanted you to pay for blood with blood, but Clan Leader Zhao spoke for you, wanting to spare your life. I need to show respect to Clan Leader Zhao. As long as you cooperate obediently, your life will be spared," Dongfang Ye’s eyes rolled as he spoke with a deadpan expression.

"Cooperate obediently, and my life will be spared?"

"Well said!" Jing Yan laughed and continued, "So you’re saying if I don’t cooperate, then I must die, right? However, Dongfang Ye, where do you find the confidence to demand my life? Did someone squeeze your brains?"

"Alchemist Jing Yan, do you think you can escape from us?"

"It’s clear, there are only two paths laid before you. The first, you cooperate obediently. The second, you die!" said the Clan Leader of the Shan Clan.

"So, you have indeed united against me?" Jing Yan said, looking at the Clan Leader of the Shan Clan.

"You are truly despicable! During the last month at Maoqiong Ridge, I helped each of your tribes refine many elixirs. And now, you want to kill me? Haha, you’re really a bunch of ingrates," Jing Yan mocked.

Jing Yan’s words made some faces hot with shame.

However, since they decided to come, they had already made up their minds. At this point, they couldn’t back down because of a few taunts from Jing Yan.

"With my Tu Clan Tribe here, you won’t touch a single hair on Mr. Jing Yan," Tu Sen said coldly on the side.

"Tu Sen, don’t speak big words. Do you think with just a few of you, you can stop us? Open your eyes and see!" Zhao Ming said to Tu Sen.

"Zhao Ming, aren’t you afraid that the cultivators in the Shamanic Clouds Domain will criticize your Zhao Clan behind your back?" Tu Sen shouted loudly.

"Afraid! Of course, I’m afraid! But I must do this. If Jing Yan were just any Pill Master, it wouldn’t matter. But he is an extremely powerful Holy Alchemist. He’s too important, and I can’t let him leave the Shamanic Clouds Domain. Tu Sen, actually, if you think about it, keeping Jing Yan here is beneficial to your Tu Family as well. How about this, I won’t ask you to take action, just stand aside and watch. When your Tu Family needs alchemy, we can discuss," Zhao Ming said slowly.

"Dream on!" Tu Sen’s face turned red, and he rejected Zhao Ming’s proposal without hesitation.

Jing Yan looked at Tu Sen, feeling slightly touched. This Tu Family Clan Leader’s character is indeed commendable.

Zhao Ming’s face darkened as he said, "Tu Sen, if you insist on interfering, then when the fight happens, and you all die here, don’t blame us."

"Mr. Jing Yan, you and Xuan’er leave first, I’ll hold them off!" Tu Sen turned to Jing Yan and said.

At this moment, Tu Xuan was also somewhat nervous. As a First Rank Great Witch, Tu Xuan indeed felt no confidence in this situation.

"Leave? Where to? Jing Yan, boy, let’s settle the account for killing the elder of my Dongfang Family!" Dongfang Ye stepped forward again, unfolding his arm and pulling out a weapon, attacking Jing Yan.

"Courting death!" Jing Yan condensed his aura, divine power surged through his body, and in an instant, the Colorful Cloud Sword appeared in his hand, striking ferociously.

"Huh?"

"Great Witch!"

"He’s advanced to the Great Witch Realm!" When Jing Yan struck, the power of Laws fluctuated, the aura of the Nine Great Laws all complete, naturally couldn’t be concealed from these notable figures.

Among these notable figures, several were high-level Supremes. Seeing that Jing Yan had entered the Great Witch Realm, their expressions changed continuously. Before entering Extreme Land to cultivate, Jing Yan was still a Wizard. Unexpectedly, upon exiting, he was already in the Great Witch Realm.

Feeling the aura of Jing Yan’s Laws all complete, Dongfang Ye’s aged face dropped instantly. When Jing Yan was still a Wizard, Dongfang Ye couldn’t handle him in a confrontation. Now that Jing Yan is a Great Witch, wouldn’t his strength have drastically increased?

Dongfang Ye immediately regretted hastily attacking Jing Yan. But at this moment, regret was of no use, and he couldn’t retreat. Even if he did, Jing Yan wouldn’t let him off. The Sword Light of the Colorful Cloud Sword was already rushing to attack.

"Boom!" The Sword Light vibrated, space collapsed.

Dongfang Ye’s body flew out like a meteor. With just one strike, Dongfang Ye, a Third-Order Great Witch, was sent flying. This shows that Jing Yan’s strength is indeed far more formidable than before.

Jing Yan flashed and chased after Dongfang Ye.

"A cultivator who has just advanced to Great Witch, and is so powerful. Well then, let me try," the Clan Leader of the Shan Clan quickly flew out of the crowd, his hands filled with revolving divine power, to intercept Jing Yan.

"Hmph!" Tu Sen also moved, intending to block the Clan Leader of the Shan Clan.

"Tu Clan Chief! Haha, it has indeed been too long since we’ve sparred. Today, let’s take this opportunity for a match!" Zhao Ming moved forward to face Tu Sen.
