The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 333 A Good Means and a Good Scheme

Chen Jizhen was furious about Li Ye’s provocative remark. He immediately turned his wrist and took out his magic treasure. It was a rough golden machete, shining with colorful light. It was obviously not an ordinary thing.

While Chen Jizhen was about to fight, Huang Jingyuan suddenly pulled him and shook his head with a dark and cautious look.

They were not afraid of Li Ye since they dared to come here. What was more, they had to solve Li Ye by the way.

Li Ye took the initiative to leave the heavy protection of the army and appeared in the wilderness, against common sense. He also provoked them, the cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm, with arrogant words. If Huang Jingyuan couldn’t understand it was a fraud, he was stupid.

Chen Jizhen turned to glare at Huang Jingyuan. “Why are you trying to stop me? This guy is deliberately mystifying us. Let me kill him!”

His attitude was resolute and he had no scruples. In his view, Li Ye, who was in the Mortal Realm, was not worth mentioning at all, and he could kill Li Ye very easily. He even didn’t take the cultivators of the demon clan, who supported Li Ye, seriously.

Huang Jingyuan said in a deep voice, “He isn’t reckless. Since he dares to appear here, he will have reliance. We’d better be careful!”

Chen Jizhen couldn’t vent his anger, and Huang Jingyuan almost drove him crazy. He thought Huang Jingyuan was the worst teammate ever. “Even if the demons in the Sky Immortal Realm come, we are able to kill them!”

Huang Jingyuan’s face darkened. He said coldly and impolitely, “Li Ye is not an ordinary guy! Do you want to repeat the mistake of the five major Taoist sects?”

Chen Jizhen was a little stunned. The five major Taoist sects were the representatives of the Taoist Immortal Court in the human world. They were powerful, but they could do nothing to Li Ye. Even though they cooperated with Buddhism indirectly, the masters of the four major Taoist sects were killed by Li Ye and the force of the Taoist sect was completely suppressed by Li Ye.

Under normal circumstances, that was impossible. Li Ye was just a mortal with no special immortal background, and he had only lived for nearly 30 years. In terms of qualifications, he couldn’t be mentioned in the same breath with the five major Taoist sects, to say nothing of the Immortal Court.

The Immortal Court thought highly of themselves, so they wouldn’t take Li Ye seriously. Maybe in those Great Cultivators’ views, as long as they solved the dispute in the immortal territory, it would be a simple task to solve Li Ye.

In fact, the Great Cultivators above the Daluo Golden Immortal were the main forces of the battle. Under the circumstance that the Taoist Immortal Court was besieged by various gods, it wasn’t easy for them to support the battle in the immortal territory. But after the cultivators below the Daluo Golden Immortal descended to the human world through Kunlun, their realms declined to the Sky Immortal Realm and the Earth Immortal Realm.

Even though Huang Jingyuan was arrogant, he would pay attention to the battle situation in Hedong. As long as he paid attention to it, he had to admit that it was impossible for a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm to kill Li Ye.

Now only the cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm was likely to kill Li Ye one-to-one. However, most of 72 Earth Devils, who were sent to support Zhu Wen and deal with the Buddhism demon clan by the Immortal Court, were not in the Sky Immortal Realm.

They were mostly good at subduing demons and monsters.

But Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan were really in the Sky Immortal Realm, and they were the heads of 72 Earth Devils.

Chen Jizhen was fearless.

Before he saw Li Ye, Huang Jingyuan was also fearless.

But now, when Li Ye stood in front of him, Huang Jingyuan hesitated.

Li Ye shouldn’t have stood in front of him.

Unless he wanted to die.

Because all the bluffs and tricks were meaningless.

But obviously, Li Ye didn’t want to die.

So it was an either-or answer.

Either Li Ye had nothing to fear because he had already set up a trap.

Or Li Ye was crazy.

Huang Jingyuan narrowed his eyes and kept looking at the arrogant Li Ye who was standing in front of him with his hands clasped behind his back. But he couldn’t see anything.

He couldn’t see anything not because he was stupid.

As a military counselor, Huang Jingyuan knew much more about Li Ye than Chen Jizhen. So he knew very well that Li Ye was not so superficial, arrogant, and stupid as he showed.

Huang Jingyuan’s face darkened.

He couldn’t see anything from Li Ye, which meant that he couldn’t see through Li Ye.

With a thousand years of cultivation and experience, he was well-known in the Immortal Court, but he couldn’t see through this 30-year-old mortal.

It was impossible.

Huang Jingyuan’s face grew dark.

He was so angry that he couldn’t hear clearly what Chen Jizhen was saying.

Li Ye was standing in front of him on top of the mountain. He bathed in sunlight, alive and energetic. He was close enough to touch. It was as if only one breath would blow him off the tree, and it was as if he could catch Li Ye from the top of the mountain as long as he waved his hand casually.

Huang Jingyuan’s eyes gradually blurred.

It was like being mesmerized by the scenery.

It was as if he was absorbed into a picture.

Being absorbed into a picture!

Chen Jizhen soon discovered his partner’s abnormal condition. When he realized what had happened, his expression changed greatly and he thought that it was impossible! With Huang Jingyuan’s cultivation and experience, it was impossible for him to be absorbed into Li Ye’s picture. Li Ye wasn’t in the Immortal Realm and he even didn’t have the Immortal Area!

Chen Jizhen didn’t know that even Feihong Bodhisattva was once absorbed into Li Ye’s picture, so he was shocked. If he knew this, he wouldn’t have been so surprised.

But now, Chen Jizhen had no time to think too much. He wanted to speak out the Nine-word Method to drag Huang Jingyuan out of the picture!

However, before he could speak, clouds scudded, winds arose, and the sky was eclipsed in all directions in this critical moment. Various techniques shot like falling stones in succession and covered him and Huang Jingyuan in it!

It was the Great Cultivators of the demon clan led by Holy Child.

Chen Jizhen was stunned. At this point, he knew that they were ambushed by Li Ye!

He never thought that they would be ambushed by Li Ye, nor he was afraid of that.

He had Huang Jingyuan on his side. The two of them were so intelligent and powerful that they wouldn’t fall into ordinary traps.

More importantly, their cultivation was in the Sky Immortal Realm and they had a special technique of the Immortal Court to suppress the demon clan, so even if they were ambushed, they could fight back by using the special technique. In this case, they didn’t need to break through, because they could directly defeat the demon clan!

But it was completely different now.

First, it happened too fast. When they met each other, they only talked for a very short time. Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan were completely caught off guard, and it was beyond their expectations.

When he saw Li Ye standing in front of him, Chen Jizhen thought about the worst case, which was that they fell into a trap. Even so, they could find a clue with their intelligence, and they could also be quickly prepared with their cultivation.

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

Even though Li Ye was in the Mortal Realm, he already had the ability to absorb people into the picture that only the cultivators in the Immortal Realm, whose “territory” was promoted to “Immortal Area”, could have.

That was far beyond Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan’s expectation.

Even though Huang Jingyuan was intelligent and he was the so-called immortal, he didn’t expect that.

So he was absorbed into the picture.

He, who was always wise, lost his mind first!

This not only put him in danger, but also made Chen Jizhen panic.

Even at this time, Li Ye was motionless, and he looked as usual.

While a group of demons was ready to attack, and various techniques were approaching, Chen Jizhen roared and an amber jade tablet appeared in his hand in this critical moment. He suddenly crushed it, and a light shield rose behind him!

The Taoist Immortal Court had suppressed the demon clan for thousands of years so that the demon clan had no chance to fight back because of the targeted means. However, at this moment, Huang Jingyuan was absorbed into the picture, so Chen Jizhen couldn’t launch the means alone and had to give out his life-saving magic treasure!

The techniques fell all over the sky like stars and rain. Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan covered in the center were shone brightly. The techniques were less than 10 meters from them.

At this moment, however, Huang Jingyuan’s pupils suddenly shrank and he came to his sense from the illusion!

Li Ye noticed the change first. He felt a pain in his heart, blood gushing up his throat. He groaned and vomited a mouthful of blood.

Chen Jizhen immediately responded. Four flags immediately flew out his sleeves to four directions and protected the two of them in the middle. An eight trigrams plate flew out Huang Jingyuan’s sleeve and fell under their feet. While it was rotating rapidly, a round light column suddenly rose to the sky!

The techniques of the Great Cultivators of the demon clan led by Holy Child hit the rising light column! It was like countless stones falling on an isolated peak. The peak collapsed instantly, and Spiritual Qi shot like fireworks.

Huang Jingyuan and Chen Jizhen vomited blood and flew backward in succession. After 300 meters, they barely stabilize their bodies, covering their chests.

Their defense was so hasty that the power of their magic treasure had not yet played completely. They were hit by the techniques of the demon clan and seriously injured.

Their faces turned pale, and they looked at Li Ye with hatred at the same time!

Li Ye didn’t care about their anger and glares, and he smiled proudly. But he sighed secretly because the attack didn’t achieve the expected effect.

He succeeded in comprehending Tao. After fighting Feihong Bodhisattva, he comprehended the Immortal Area. He also succeeded in absorbing Huang Jingyuan into the picture this time, but in the final analysis, he was just a Yang Spiritual Master. He didn’t confuse and trap Huang Jingyuan for a long time so that Huang Jingyuan recovered in time.

Li Ye was also attacked and slightly injured just now. Huang Jingyuan and Chen Jizhen lived up to their names. They had the magic treasure given by the Immortal Court, so they didn’t die because of Li Ye’s sudden attack.

But they were injured more seriously than Li Ye.

Holy Child and the cultivators of the demon clan who were in the Sky Immortal Realm trapped Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan in the center, each of them occupying a place. They were ready to fight again at any time. They had prepared the previous blow for a long time and they launched it with their full strength. Otherwise, the other side wouldn’t have been injured badly. Now, they needed a break.

Huang Jingyuan stared at Li Ye. “A good means! A good scheme! It’s really vicious!”

Li Ye said seriously, “You can blame nobody for falling into the trap.”

Huang Jingyuan fumed with anger, but he could say nothing.

They had the means to deal with the cultivators of the demon clan, but it wasn’t easy to carry it out—it had to pay the price, or the demon clan would have been extinct long ago. Now, they were seriously injured. Even if they could carry out the means to suppress the cultivators of the demon clan, its power would decline greatly and they couldn’t bear it as well.

But if they didn’t carry out the means, they would be immediately surrounded by Holy Child and his men.

One careless move lost the whole game.

Huang Jingyuan, who praised himself wise, was as mad as a wet hen because of this.

Moreover, it was he who was absorbed into the picture, but not Chen Jizhen who was relatively less intelligent!

He soon understood that Li Ye had already expected that they would come to find him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left the protection of the army and appeared on the mountain in the wilderness.

Otherwise, Li Ye wouldn’t have absorbed him into the picture rather than Chen Jizhen.

Only smart people would think more. If he thought too much, it was easy for him to lose his mind. Therefore, as the military counselor of 72 Earth Devils, he ranked the second, not the first.

Li Ye made up his mind from the very beginning to absorb Huang Jingyuan into the picture and give them a Thunderstorm Attack.

But why would Li Ye know him so well?

The people on the earth couldn’t know the immortals so well.

Even the demon clan couldn’t do so.

Only immortals could know immortals so well.

Which immortal was helping Li Ye?

The answer was obvious.

There was only one immortal beside Li Ye.

Guanghan Fairy, Su Emei.

Huang Jingyuan’s face grew dark.

He suddenly reacted. They wanted to kill Li Ye. But in reverse, Li Ye also wanted to kill them.

Realizing this, Huang Jingyuan began to feel cold from the bottom of his heart.

Li Ye was just a mortal who had only lived for thirty years. How dare he want to kill immortals?

Didn’t he fear the gods in the Immortal Court?

Huang Jingyuan couldn’t help shivering.

Obviously, Li Ye didn’t.

He didn’t just think about it, but he did it with a deliberate plan.

He was lawless!

Huang Jingyuan stared fiercely at Li Ye all the time, as if he wanted to see Li Ye through and see clearly what he looked like. He couldn’t understand Li Ye at all.

He was angry, extremely angry.

But he was more fearful than angry.

He was fearful of Li Ye.

Because Li Ye almost succeeded in killing immortals.

Li Ye didn’t know what Huang Jingyuan was thinking about. When he saw Huang Jingyuan’s gloomy face, he smiled. “Now that you have nothing to say, how about going to die now?”
