Chapter 124

Ye Chen's icy voice rang out; at this moment he had taken on an adult's appearance, holding Yun Yun in his arms.

Although Yun Yun did not recognize the person before her, she could tell Ye Chen's voice.

Yun Yun burst into sobs, "You bastard! Why did you only come now? You're supposed to be my guardian!"

Ye Chen listened to Yun Yun's words and gave a light chuckle.

"I'll take you to kill people, to make up for my fault."

Ye Chen said, and his Wuji Yin-Yang Diagram had somehow been opened; now it completely surrounded this place.

"But... they are all Golden Core Tenth Level cultivators..."

Yun Yun said worriedly.

"It's fine."

Ye Chen said, giving Yun Yun a reassuring smile.

Afterwards, he set Yun Yun down, his icy eyes fixed on the Golden Core cultivators; his gaze was utterly different from his earlier gentleness.

The Golden Core cultivators sensed Ye Chen's aura and all started in shock, "This is impossible!"

This thought simultaneously arose in their minds; the vast gap in strength made them unable to believe it.

They didn't even know when Ye Chen's Wuji Yin-Yang Diagram had completely surrounded them; this method clearly showed his strength far surpassed theirs.

Yet they could clearly sense that Ye Chen's cultivation had not yet broken through to Nascent Soul, which was what frightened them most.

A Golden Core cultivator who had not yet reached Nascent Soul could silently deploy the Wuji Yin-Yang Diagram to envelop them all—something no ordinary cultivator could do.

"We have no grudge against you, sir; why do you wish to kill us?"

One of them asked, they did not know who Ye Chen was nor his aura; they were cultivators newly arrived to hunt Yun Yun, so not knowing him was normal, and now that Ye Chen had taken on an adult's appearance, they had no idea the person before them was Ye Chen.

Upon hearing that person's words, Ye Chen gave a cold laugh, offered no further explanation, and his figure erupted; in an instant that person's body turned into a blood mist, his blood spraying onto the others, and only when the blood splattered on them did they react.

Their pupils trembled violently, their eyes quivering as if they had witnessed something utterly horrifying.

After that person's death, Ye Chen decisively took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner; he would naturally not discard such a fresh soul.

When the others saw Ye Chen absorb that Golden Core cultivator's soul into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, their expressions instantly turned to terror.

If they had previously feared Ye Chen's great strength, now they feared Ye Chen himself.

"A demonic cultivator, he is still a demonic cultivator!"

"Demonic cultivators deserve to be killed by all!"

"Damned demonic cultivator, cease your arrogance!"

"……"

Curses rose and fell continuously; Ye Chen listened to their scorn, his heart filled with repeated cold laughs, knowing this was their expression of fear.

If they were not afraid of him, they would not curse him but draw weapons to take his life; but now it is not so.

Perhaps they thought this would make Ye Chen dare not attack them.

But they overthought it; the moment Ye Chen surrounded them here, their lives entered a countdown.

"Demonic cultivator, you……"

Another cultivator prepared to insult Ye Chen, but in the next instant Ye Chen made him forever close his mouth.

And his soul drifted automatically into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

From this moment on, Ye Chen's exclusive slaughter officially begins!

Blood spattered, the stench of blood spread; soon the soil beneath Ye Chen's feet turned blood-red, even faintly revealing a hint of black as blood seeped into the earth, making the soil……red turning black!

After Ye Chen had killed those people and collected their souls, he turned his head to look at Yun Yun; at this moment Yun Yun's expression was somewhat dazed, Ye Chen saw this and frowned slightly, he walked toward Yun Yun, and upon seeing Ye Chen approach her, her expression returned.

She simply stood there, seeming at a loss.

"Are you afraid?"

Ye Chen softly asked Yun Yun.

"You are a good person."

Yun Yun almost blurted this out instinctively; perhaps she had struggled in her heart before, but when Ye Chen asked her, her inner turmoil ceased.

One who had saved her again and again—how could he be a demonic cultivator everyone calls to beat? She believed Ye Chen must have done this out of unavoidable hardship.

"I…… probably am not a good person."

Ye Chen said; after speaking, he turned around to collect the skins of those Golden Core cultivators, his Ten Thousand Souls Banner could no longer suppress so many Golden Core cultivators' souls, so he needed to reforge his Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Yun Yun stood behind Ye Chen, watching all this; at this moment Ye Chen's actions were no different from those demonic cultivators...

Ye Chen had no reservations before Yun Yun, and in her presence began to reforge his Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Yun Yun stood behind Ye Chen, her expression complex; demonic cultivators will inevitably suffer a backlash to their mind, the stronger the demonic cultivator, the more insane their mind becomes; Yun Yun does not wish Ye Chen to walk this no-return path.

But Ye Chen on this planet has no power, no background; everything he has is won by himself, he barely manages to stay alive, so why worry about whether he is not a demonic cultivator? As long as he can increase his cultivation, that's enough.

She knows she has no standing to advise Ye Chen to give up, for this is his means of self-preservation.

Just as Yun Yun was lost in thought, Ye Chen's Ten Thousand Souls Banner had already been reforged.

He held the freshly reforged Ten Thousand Souls Banner, examining it closely; at this moment the banner continuously emitted black vapors, as if it were truly a formidable demonic artifact.

"Ye Chen……"

Yun Yun anxiously called Ye Chen's name; Ye Chen heard her, knew what she was thinking, and said, "I'm fine."

After Ye Chen spoke, Yun Yun fell silent; she truly worried for Ye Chen, his feeling to her differed from those spoiled rich youths—he had a sense of responsibility, was strong, and meticulous in his deeds.

Moreover Ye Chen had saved her several times, he remained her guardian; Yun Yun could not bear to see such a good person as Ye Chen fall into the demonic path.

Seeing Yun Yun silent, Ye Chen took the initiative to speak and break the silence.

"Go back to your brother's side for now; things will become more dangerous around me."

Ye Chen told Yun Yun, he held twenty-eight energy orbs from Golden Core Tenth Level cultivators; he would find a place to absorb this energy, then break through, and afterward attract Nascent Soul cultivators to this planet to carry out a slaughter.

Of course, his urgency to reach Nascent Soul stems from the fact that after attaining Nascent Soul he will obtain the Thus Technique: Thus Technique: Thus Technique: Tahuazizaidafa; with this manual, his combat power will reach an extremely terrifying level!

"But…"

Yun Yun hadn't finished speaking when Ye Chen interrupted, "There's nothing to be sorry about; staying by my side is too dangerous."

Ye Chen said solemnly.

Yun Yun heard Ye Chen's cold voice, and a highly complex expression appeared in their eyes.

Yun Yun silently went behind Ye Chen, placed the cultivation resources they had prepared for him on the ground, "Take care."

After speaking, Yun Yun turned and left; as they departed, they glanced back at Ye Chen, then completely departed.

Only after Yun Yun had fully left did Ye Chen turn his head and look toward the direction Yun Yun had gone.

"I'm sorry, you following me is truly too dangerous."

"From now on, I must go all out…"

Ye Chen finished speaking, picked up the storage bag Yun Yun had given him, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
