Chapter 1147 - 1146: Surrounded by Enemies

"Just you?"

Ye Qingchen's eyes slightly narrowed.

He did not expect that a mere Earth Immortal, like an ant, would dare to jump out and act presumptuously in front of him at this moment.

"Boom!"

Pei Yuqian, standing nearby, suddenly took a step forward.

The power of a Celestial Immortal, how formidable it is; with just one step, in an instant, he commanded the heavens, bringing everything under Pei Yuqian's control. To those watching, Pei Yuqian's figure suddenly expanded, as if he were about to burst open the heavens and earth.

Within this area, Pei Yuqian had turned into a sovereign presence!

"Celestial Immortal!"

People around were filled with trepidation.

Many Celestial Immortals were secretly astonished. Pei Yuqian had only recently broken through to become a Celestial Immortal; in the days following Ye Qingchen, not only had he consolidated his realm, but he had also advanced to such a level.

Yet, the more this was the case, the more the Celestial Immortals in the scene looked at Ye Qingchen with greed. As for Xu Mingcheng's previous words, they didn't believe a single syllable; everyone knew it was just an excuse to find a reason to make a move!

If they obtained this alchemist, how would their own power increase? How much would their family's strength be enhanced?

"Haha, kid, is this what you rely on?" Xu Mingcheng seeing this, was not nervous at all, instead laughed heartily: "You have a Celestial Immortal, I have a Celestial Immortal too!"

"Hmm?"

Ye Qingchen frowned.

Sure enough.

Right then, an incredibly ethereal sound came from outside:

"Xu Mingcheng, thank you! Once I capture the thief who stole my family's treasured possessions, I will definitely reward you!"

In the voice.

Everyone felt an immediate sense of horror, goosebumps arose; it was a strong aura, approaching rapidly with an overwhelming presence.

In the shocked gazes of everyone, they saw a tall and robust middle-aged man appear suddenly, without any warning, stepping into the scene.

"Boom!"

Immediately, the entire Profound Ice Platform quivered suddenly, as if the surrounding realm was silently torn apart, revealing a giant fissure to those watching.

This was the struggle between two Celestial Immortals for control of the heavens!

"Shen Wuji from Western Wilderness Lingnan?"

Someone gasped aloud.

"I didn't expect such an old Celestial Immortal to come out!"

"Hmph, this kid is like a hen that lays golden eggs, who wouldn't be tempted to seize him? I just didn't expect Shen Wuji to join in too..."

"Indeed, the allure of this kid is too great; a single pill was enough to allow Pei Yuqian to enter Celestial Immortal. If one could obtain him, wouldn't that mean there'd be no barrier in the future to enter Celestial Immortal?"

Some regretted not acting earlier, some were apprehensive at Shen Wuji's appearance, some pondered secretly on what to do next, while others rejoiced in misfortune.

Such a veteran Celestial Immortal was drawn here, just imagine.

"Is it you, the thief?" Shen Wuji asked, hands behind his back, his voice like a booming bell, "I was in closed-door training for years, not expecting you to sneak into my family and steal our treasured possessions. If not for Xu Mingcheng tipping me off, I wouldn't have known you appeared at the Profound Ice Platform Conference!"

He spoke while glancing intentionally or inadvertently at Xu Mingcheng.

Xu Mingcheng's face was full of undisguised smugness, casting a mocking glance at Ye Qingchen.

When he first heard Ye Qingchen was an alchemist, he was almost startled to death. But soon Shen Wuji agreed upon this plan, preparing to capture Ye Qingchen thoroughly.

As for whether the opponent would be set with talismans or cursed with Gu Talismans upon capture, that was none of his business.

"How many people do you have, come out together!" Ye Qingchen sat still.

"Eh?"

Shen Wuji was surprised, looking at Ye Qingchen, then burst into laughter:

"You're incredibly cunning, to guess that I have backups! Since that's the case, I'll let you die in the know!"

With a word.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There was a deafening sound of footsteps, quietly approaching. When the sound first emerged, it seemed far away in the horizon, but in a blink, it arrived before everyone.

Hearing these footsteps, the incoming person would surely seem like a monstrous beast; yet, the result was an eerily dwarf-like presence, a thin old man not more than five feet tall.

This old man was hunched, just slightly taller than a child, but his body was as if cast in molten copper and iron, resembling a frenzied erupting volcano that seemed to be on the verge of exploding. When close enough, one could hear his Qi Blood roar like an angry sea.

"Li Suling from the xtreme North!"

Many people's pupils contracted.

At this moment.

Even Pei Yuqian showed a hint of dread in his eyes.

He thought only one Celestial Immortal had come, believing his strength could protect Ye Qingchen. But unexpectedly, now there were two, which was quite troubling.

Moreover, the opponent was one adept at dealing with a Body Cultivator!

"Tap, tap, tap!"

As Pei Yuqian secretly pondered, another round of footsteps echoed, as a tall, cold atmospheric man slowly emerged from the dark shadows.

The person seemed enshrouded in black fog, only revealing snake-like eyes, cold and bloodthirsty.

"Ci Ming from Western Wilderness!"

There's another round of exclamations in the crowd.

This time.

Pei Yuqian's face finally turned unpleasant.

He never imagined the undercurrents hidden beneath the Profound Ice Platform Conference could be so terrifying; once erupted, it was heaven-shocking, seemingly about to engulf them entirely!

Three Celestial Immortals!

This was simply aimed at Ye Qingchen!

Nevermind Ye Qingchen.

I fear even myself would be in a grave predicament with no burial ground!

"What should I do, what should I do..."

Pei Chu was already pale with fear and trembling. She had never seen such a situation before, seemingly more terrifying than their time in Central City, leaving her utterly desperate.

She sneakily glanced at Ye Qing and Han Yue Ran next to her, noting that although the two frowned, they seemed unworried. Curious as she was, Ye Qingchen's voice came from ahead:

"Three Celestial Immortals? What do you want?"

"Obey us and leave quietly, heed our command, then you have a chance to live." Shen Wuji chuckled, "Otherwise, I'll make you experience my methods!"

Pei Yuqian's face turned cold as he stepped forward, blocking Ye Qingchen.

"With me here, you won't take sir away!"

"Haha, just you?"

Shen Wuji laughed heartily, entirely unafraid and full of disdain.

"Why waste words on him!" Li Suling was already impatient, "Quickly wage battle, first kill Pei Yuqian, then capture this kid, lest we dally!"

"Alright!"

Ci Ming coldly shouted, stepping forward aggressively.

In the blink of an eye.

Shen Wuji was already facing an attack from three Celestial Immortals!
