Chapter 1029: The Yao Family Is No More!

"Boom…"

The fist force swept through, and the Yao family trembled once again as if struck by another earthquake. When the fist shadow vanished, Yao Yuanshan from the lower world had completely disappeared.

All that remained was the purest soul power, refined after being stirred by Ye Chen's power of reincarnation. With a wave of his hand, Ye Chen sent it into his inner world. Only then did he turn to Yao Xi with a light smile and say: "A mere loose cultivator—what could he possibly know? Besides, he only appeared innocent because I was here. If I weren't here, he would have done everything they wanted. Anyone who dares to threaten you, Senior Sister, must die."

Ye Chen had no need for such a slave. He didn't need one in the cultivation world, and it would be even more useless in the Immortal Realm. There was no need for further words.

Upon hearing this, Yao Xi's eyes reddened once more. Her junior brother treated her far too well. Even though they had only met a handful of times over the years, his feelings for her had not faded in the slightest.

If no one else were present, Yao Xi would have wanted nothing more than to throw herself into his arms, serve him with the full moon he loved most, and then give everything she had—using her Origin Spirit Body to help him awaken yet another Divine Ability.

Ye Chen shifted his gaze toward the remaining Yao family members. The corner of his mouth curled up.

Watching the True Immortal ancestor they had worked so hard to summon die just like that, the Yao family members trembled even harder. They knelt on the ground, kowtowing desperately, their foreheads banging loudly against the floor.

"Fourth Holy Son, we truly know we were wrong…"

"Son-in-law, we were momentarily possessed by greed!"

"Brother-in-law, I never supported this! But I couldn't go against the entire clan!"

"Xixi, for so many years, our Yao family poured everything into raising you. Please, for the sake of our past relationship, put in a good word for us!"

They played the emotional card, confessing their mistakes and begging Ye Chen to show mercy.

Yao Xi looked at them but remained silent.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and spoke softly: "You don't truly know you were wrong… You only know that you're about to die."

The eyes of the Yao family's Divine Son and the others widened instantly.

In the next moment, Ye Chen pressed down with one hand from afar. Before his death, the Yao family's Divine Son recalled the past. Back then, his cultivation had far surpassed Ye Chen's. As one of the three great prodigies of the Great Yan Continent, he had even hoped to compete for the title of number one prodigy.

He had looked down on this brother-in-law of his and only saw Hua Yunfei and the Heavenly Intention Holy Son as true rivals. Who could have imagined that the Heavenly Intention Holy Son would die many years ago? Hua Yunfei had already become a quasi-immortal. And he himself had been reduced to an ant.

Boom…

The Yao family's Divine Son and the others turned into clouds of blood mist. Every trace of their existence was completely erased.

Ye Chen turned around calmly and saw Yao Gu and the Yao family elder standing in the distance, their faces deathly pale. He felt no pity for the two of them.

Yao Gu had provoked him in the past but lost. He had only spared him for Yao Xi's sake. The male cultivators he truly acknowledged in the cultivation world were few: the old sect leader of the Green Cloud Sect, his senior brother, the Holy Master, and Elder Mo. As for that elder, whether his intentions had been good or bad no longer mattered.

Holding Yao Xi in his arms, Ye Chen rose into the air. He stretched out one hand and stared coldly downward, ready to press down.

With a single strike from the current Ye Chen, the entire Yao family would be destroyed. No one would survive.

The Yao family members looked up at Ye Chen, who stood high in the sky like a god and devil, their eyes filled with utter despair. They didn't know the full story, but they all knew that the upper echelons of their clan had offended the Heavenly Emperor's heir. Today, the Yao family faced total annihilation.

But at this final moment, Yao Xi could no longer hold back. She hugged Ye Chen's arm and pleaded: "Junior brother… let's not wipe out the entire clan… They didn't know the truth. Killing them serves no purpose!"

Yao Gu had genuinely treated her as his younger sister. And that elder had cared for her deeply. When she was still growing up, he would visit her every few days to ask if she had suffered any grievances or if any clan members were causing her trouble. He had even brought her parents back to the Yao family to give her peace of mind. Whether they had done it to give Ye Chen an explanation or for other reasons, they had truly shown her sincere care. Yao Xi could not bear it and hoped Ye Chen would only kill the main culprits.

Hearing her words, Ye Chen did not insist. He withdrew his hand. With a cold laugh, he thought: The Yao family once had the chance to soar to the heavens. For his senior sister's sake, he would not have minded letting them enter the Immortal Realm. But now, they had brought this upon themselves.

Without even glancing at the Yao family members below, Ye Chen carried Yao Xi and shot away into the distance…

Within the Yao family estate, which had been reduced to little more than ruins, Yao Gu and the clan elder slowly rose into the air.

Looking at the devastated clan grounds and the countless clan members who had died from the shockwaves—less than one in ten still alive—their eyes were filled with deep sorrow.

Just yesterday, the Yao family had still been an ancient immortal clan. Even with the arrival of the Age of Dharma's End, they had remained high above others. Thanks to their connection with the Fourth Holy Son, they had often managed to profit from various schemes.

Yet in just a single day, everything had changed. The mountain-protecting quasi-immortal formation was destroyed. The immortal artifact was ruined. Nearly all the upper echelons of the Yao family had been wiped out.

Most importantly, all of this had been done personally by the Fourth Holy Son. Without his protection, even if Ye Chen did not personally destroy the Yao family, they no longer had the strength to hold onto this treasured land. They would inevitably be swallowed up by others.

The Yao family was truly finished! There was no Yao family in the Immortal Realm. And soon, there would be no Yao family left in the cultivation world either.

Ye Chen carried Yao Xi and shot out of the Yao family grounds, intending to bring her back to the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land and keep her by his side from now on.

Yao Xi naturally had no objections. Back then, she had chosen to go to the Yao family because she refused to be a canary who only depended on Ye Chen. She had wanted to fully awaken her Origin Spirit Body so she could help him.

Now that her Origin Spirit Body had matured, she could finally assist Ye Chen and no longer wished to be separated from him. However, they had not flown far from the Yao family when a clear female voice rang out: "Fellow Daoist, please wait."

Ye Chen's mouth twitched. Those words were never a good sign. Still, when he saw the green-robed female cultivator flying toward them, he raised an eyebrow and stopped. This 80,000-times beauty had actually managed to catch up. He had been in too much of a hurry earlier and hadn't paid attention. Now, looking at her carefully, he truly felt how stunning she was.

Willow-leaf eyebrows, cherry-like lips, she was like an orchid blooming in a secluded valley—flawlessly beautiful. Especially her lips, which were delicately pink and glistened with a seductive sheen.

The skin exposed outside her green robes was as smooth as jade and white as snow, seemingly delicate enough to break with a single breath. Her figure was slender and tall. Beneath the green dress, her long legs were faintly visible, and her waist was so slim it seemed it could be encircled with one hand. The curves of her body were breathtaking.

She walked over gracefully, each step light and rhythmic, every movement filled with composure and elegance.

There was also a faint but unmistakable aura of someone born to rule. She seemed like an imperial princess. This suddenly appearing top-tier female cultivator was quite something. And it looked like she had something to ask of him. Otherwise, why would she have chased after them?

She was indeed very tempting, but right now, Ye Chen only wanted to spend time with his senior sister. So he decided to let her wait. He spoke indifferently: "What does Fellow Daoist want?"

Wang Xuanji frowned slightly upon sensing Ye Chen's cold attitude. But when she recalled the terrifying power of the punch he had thrown earlier, she quickly regained her composure. This young man was not inferior to the Eight-Crowned King. Her entire plan depended on him. After all, the Eight-Crowned King was clearly a person with an extremely firm Dao heart.

As for Ye Chen? He had rushed across thousands of miles and wiped out an entire clan just to take away one woman. Although she disapproved of such behavior, he was currently her last and only hope…
