Chapter 371: It Is Not Your Turn to Risk Your Life

A leaf hanging from the sky pressed down, leaving no one present daring to make a sound.

Only Shen Jingbin stood his ground with his blade, his hair and beard bristling like an enraged old lion, shielding Ye Lin with his life.

Just moments ago, Dean Yan Lanbing had been trying to persuade him not to be impulsive, but he truly could not help himself.

In his eyes, such a fine student—how did he become a "bastard" in every breath that came out of Ye Yushan's mouth?

Even if this were the Ye family's private business, so what? His brain wasn't working right; he didn't understand!

Ye Yushan stood up and slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He ignored Shen Jingbin, who had punched him; it was well-known that this guy was mentally ill—he had even dared to dig up the Emperor's Tomb—so arguing with him was like playing the lute to a cow.

Ye Yushan looked directly at Yan Lanbing.

"Dean Yan, is the Daxia Academy intending to interfere in the internal affairs of my Ye family?"

"Of course not!" Yan Lanbing hurriedly denied. "I just tried my best to dissuade Professor Shen, but the Professor's condition has been getting worse lately; I really couldn't stop him! He even hits me when he goes crazy; the teachers of Daxia Academy can all testify to this."

Yan Lanbing wore a look of great distress on her face, yet she had no intention whatsoever of stepping in to stop Shen Jingbin.

The teachers of Daxia Academy also nodded one after another, chiming in to prove that when Shen Jingbin went crazy, he really did hit anyone.

"Heh... very well. This matter, my Hanging Leaf of the Sky has noted it down."

Ye Yushan could see it now: Daxia Academy simply wanted to help Ye Lin, just playing the roles of the good cop and the bad cop.

He loosened his neck, his eagle-like eyes fixed on Shen Jingbin, his body radiating brilliant divine light, his aura astonishing.

"Since you all find him such a headache, then today I shall show mercy and rid your Daxia Academy of this scourge!"

"I don't care about your this or that—you just can't touch my student!"

Shen Jingbin roared, his massive Qi and blood surging into the sky, sweeping across ten thousand miles. His thin frame expanded continuously until his whole body was filled with solid, corded muscle, like a god of war descending upon the world.

Shen Jingbin curled his fingers into a fist and struck out violently. The terrifying Qi and blood transformed into combat power that swept outward; this strike caused the expressions of many present to change.

It was no wonder this lunatic could still jump around after doing so many outrageous things; he was likely nearly invincible within the Bright Moon Realm!

Ye Yushan's expression grew a bit more solemn, yet he felt not a shred of fear. An indescribable dominance surged from him, and cyan lightning crackled on his arms, incomparably violent.

"The Cyan Lightning Tyrant! The Third Master of the Ye family! It has been so long since we saw him strike, and his first move is still this terrifying!"

Many big figures gasped; the old patriarch of the Ye family had three sons and one daughter, and these three sons were all brilliant talents, each an invincible existence that suppressed their peers.

And such monsters—the Ye family had produced three of them in one go!

The Cyan Lightning Tyrant, Ye Yushan, was the youngest and least talented of the three brothers, yet even so, they saw Ye Yushan as fireflies seeing the bright moon.

Boom!

The two attacks collided, erupting with a terrifying aura. The mere shockwaves of the collision were enough to make many experts unable to stand steady, forcing them to retreat several steps before they could barely stabilize themselves.

Those with weaker strength were even shaken into vomiting large mouthfuls of blood from the distance.

The Qi and blood on Shen Jingbin's body were too astonishing; he didn't look like an old man at all, but rather a tyrannosaurus in its prime.

Every punch he threw carried incomparable, immense force, as if he wanted to shatter this heaven and earth directly.

Ye Yushan did not retreat in the slightest. He did not believe he would lose to Shen Jingbin in terms of strength, and he returned the favor in kind, trading punch for punch with Shen Jingbin.

With every collision of their fists, cyan lightning swept through the surroundings, and the Xie family's residence was now becoming precarious under this terrifying impact.

Xie Hong made a gesture, and the Twelve Zodiac Guards appeared in unison, each occupying a position and beginning to dissipate the shockwaves of the two men's battle.

Otherwise, the Xie family's courtyard would have been reduced to ruins today under the shockwaves of their fight.

After trading dozens of punches, Ye Yushan, who had not gained an advantage in strength, felt a touch of impatience on his face.

He could not accept that he was unable to defeat an opponent of the same rank; to him, the Cyan Lightning Tyrant, this was nothing short of a disgrace.

"Cyan Lightning Annihilation Strike!"

Ye Yushan curled his fingers, and cyan lightning instantly submerged his fist, as if to annihilate the world!

That overbearingly peerless aura made many tremble; the Third Master of the Ye family was truly enraged!

Behind Ye Yushan appeared a giant figure condensed from cyan lightning, mimicking his movements, and a mountain-like fist smashed down from the air!

"Super Invincible Tyrannosaurus Punch!"

Shen Jingbin roared, his clothes bursting apart, his veins bulging like swimming dragons coiling around his arms, and he struck directly toward the cyan giant with a punch.

With a muffled boom, the collision between the two erupted with terrifying energy fluctuations, and the surrounding space twisted under this strike.

The cyan giant was blasted apart by Shen Jingbin's punch, exploding into cyan light spots that filled the sky, and Ye Yushan retreated several steps before barely stabilizing his stance.

But Shen Jingbin, being at the center of the collision, was clearly at a greater disadvantage; his entire body was blasted away, crashing through one of the Xie family's buildings.

When he crawled out from the pile of rubble, Shen Jingbin's aura had withered a bit; he had clearly suffered in that last collision.

However, this was enough to shock everyone—what kind of formidable physical body must one have to be able to withstand the full-force strike of the Cyan Lightning Tyrant, Ye Yushan, with flesh and blood alone?

Although Shen Jingbin looked injured, he had not lost his combat effectiveness.

If it had been any other person in the Bright Moon Realm daring to do this, let alone standing up after taking a hit, they would likely have lost half their life, and those who had just entered the Bright Moon Realm with insufficient strength might even have been killed instantly!

Ye Yushan glanced at Shen Jingbin and was about to speak a taunt, but the next second, he suddenly felt a chill on his third eye.

He turned his head abruptly and saw that Ye Lin had quietly lurked behind him at some point, holding a golden spear and thrusting it fiercely toward his weak spot.

"Professor Shen, I've come to assist you!"

"Heh, you've grown up!"

Shen Jingbin looked at Ye Lin with a gratified expression, his eyes like those of a farmer watching his rice crop flourish.

Ye Lin thrust his spear, but it was shattered by a punch from Ye Yushan, whose eyes were filled with cold intent.

If not for his keen intuition, which had alerted him early, that spear would have at least resulted in his ruin in the capital.

The Cyan Lightning Tyrant, the Third Master of the Ye family, getting stabbed in the back—was that appropriate?

Just as Ye Yushan wanted to move against Ye Lin, Shen Jingbin charged directly at him, forcing him back and standing like a mountain in front of Ye Lin.

"You step back, there's no need to interfere. As long as I, your mentor, am still alive, it is not your turn as a student to risk your life!"

Shen Jingbin's gaze gradually turned fierce, shielding Ye Lin behind him like a mother hen protecting her chicks; Ye Yushan's killing intent bypassed Ye Lin and poured toward Shen Jingbin.

Ye Lin looked silently at Shen Jingbin's broad back, his eyes complex.

If the apocalyptic disaster prophesied by Zhuge Qianxing in the future truly came to pass, and humanity truly stood on the brink of extinction, then perhaps this scene before him was the reason he would be willing to fight for all of mankind.
