Chapter 478: No Face Left!

Where Ye Wuque goes, victory and death become synonymous!

He usually does not take part in large‑scale army clashes, but instead seeks out the arrogant, overwhelmingly powerful young Heavenly Pride commanders of the Other Shore camp, or targets certain key strategic nodes.

In a place called Cemetery Star Plain within the Broken Star Domain, three top‑tier Other Shore Heavenly Pride joined forces, unleashing a combined Zhujin Guxi that slaughtered an entire thousand‑strong elite squad of the Nine Heavens, their aura soaring.

Ye Wuque charged in alone; with just three punches and two kicks he shattered that Zhujin Guxi, blew up the three invincible Other Shore Heavenly Pride on the spot, and annihilated their souls!

Then, relying on his own strength, he broke through the Other Shore Zhuhui Zhongshu in that area and rescued thousands of Nine Heavens cultivators who had been besieged.

On an ancient battlefield called Soul‑Cutting Valley, a terrifying monster of the Corpse Clan whose cultivation had reached the Half‑Decay Realm Nine Layers Peak, wielding an almost indestructible Myriad‑Calamity Corpse Emperor Body and the dreadful Shidu Shengtong, slashed through seven Half‑Decay Realm Heavenly Pride of the Nine Heavens; no one could stand against it.

When Ye Wuque arrived, faced with the overwhelming Corpse Qi and endless sea of corpses, he immediately activated his Emperor Form Flesh, unleashing the purple‑golden imperial visage of Fatiandi Xiangdi that spanned ninety‑million kilometres; a single step crushed the so‑called Myriad‑Calamity Corpse Emperor Body, and a follow‑up punch of Chaos Dragon Emperor Fist pierced the Star River, vaporizing the Corpse Clan monster and the summoned corpse sea into void!

Similar feats are countless.

Ye Wuque is like a tireless, invincible War God, leaving legend after legend throughout the Bian Huang.

His fighting style is domineering and efficient, usually crushing everything with absolute force; any conspiracy, any siege or combined attack looks pale and feeble before his brilliance like a great sun and weight as massive as a star‑sea.

He has even more than once been ambushed and slaughtered by groups of Other Shore young Heavenly Pride whose numbers were several to dozens of times his own.

Those Other Shore Heavenly Pride harbored bone‑deep hatred and extreme fear toward Ye Wuque, sparing no cost to try to strangle him.

Yet without exception, the ambushers were completely wiped out, and Ye Wuque sustained not even a decent wound.

He seems born for war; the more desperate the situation, the more terrifying his combat power erupts.

The three characters "Ye Wuque" have already become synonymous with the Grim Reaper and invincibility among the younger generation of the Other Shore!

Countless Other Shore Heavenly Pride turn pale at the sound of his name; wherever he appears on the battlefield, the morale of the Other Shore side plummets, and the young commanders become trembling with fear, dreading being targeted by this killing god.

When Ye Wuque led his warband, fighting his way to the battlefield where Iron Wall Pass stood, Kun Buxiu and Yang Buyi—who had long heard countless legends about him—personally stepped out of the pass to greet him.

"Hahaha! Good kid! Truly a hero born young! Well killed! What a thrilling kill!"

Kun Buxiu slapped Ye Wuque's shoulder vigorously, his tiger‑like eyes ringing like bronze bells, full of unabashed admiration and fondness.

"I've heard all about your deeds on other battlefields!"

"You slaughtered those Other Shore brats into tears, making the Nine Heavens look ashamed!"

"I've guarded the Bian Huang for so many years, and I've never seen a junior more fierce than you!"

Yang Buyi also twirled his mustache and smiled, his eyes full of amazement: "Young Master Ye Wuque not only possesses talent that shakes antiquity and dazzles the present, his capacity for killing, decisive judgment, and conquering all directions truly makes him a War God incarnate! With you, the backbone of our Nine Heavens' younger generation becomes as hard as divine steel! I, old man, admire you, truly admire!"

Receiving such praise from these two veteran giants, revered and powerful in the Bian Huang, further attests to Ye Wuque's formidable reputation and status there now.

However, Ye Wuque's blatant brilliance naturally draws deeper resentment and more vicious murderous intent from the Other Shore side.

If the younger generation cannot control them, then... let the older generation act!

During an operation where Ye Wuque penetrated enemy lines and destroyed an important Other Shore supply hub, a sudden anomaly erupted!

A black ghost claw, enshrouded in dense Eternal Night death aura and as large as a star, tore the void without warning, bearing the terrifying pressure of Dao Void Realm level, and slammed down hard onto Ye Wuque, who had just finished fighting and was slightly winded.

That claw timed its strike with extreme cunning and cruelty, aiming to exploit the absolute realm gap after Ye Wuque's exertion, delivering a Lei Dian‑level execution kill!

The attacker turned out to be an ancient, deep‑rooted being of the Night Clan, evidently having plotted for a long time, willing to breach some latent pact just to eliminate Ye Wuque, the serious threat.

"Hmph! Old dog of the Night Clan! No face left?! Get lost!!"

At the hair‑trigger moment, a roar exploding like Lei Dian burst forth!

A bronze‑colored, towering figure materialized before Ye Wuque in an instant, none other than Kun Buxiu!

His eyes flared with anger, and the bronze battle‑axe the size of a door panel in his hand emitted a terrifying blade that split Chaos, and with no flourish he swung the axe at the black ghost claw!

Boom—!!!

A Dao Void Realm‑level collision, even merely a hurried response and the aftershock of a ranged strike, is enough to shatter stars and cause the void to collapse!

A raging Energy Storm instantly swept that area.

In the end, the black ghost claw was dimly flung back by Kun Buxiu's axe, disappearing into the void, leaving only a cold snort full of resentment and venom.

Kun Buxiu's figure also quivered slightly, his battle‑axe humming, but ultimately he steadily protected Ye Wuque behind him.

"Wuque kid, are you okay?" Kun Buxiu turned his head, asking with concern.

"Thanks, Senior Kun, for the rescue! The junior is unharmed," Ye Wuque bowed, a warm current rising in his heart, once again recognizing the cruelty and peril of the Bian Huang battlefield.

Here, any rule can be broken; only absolute strength and reliable allies guarantee survival.

"Damn it, if I ever run into that shameless old thing again, I'll have to chop its claws and brew wine with them!"

Kun Buxiu muttered curses, but his eyes scanned the surroundings even more warily.

This ambush, though unsuccessful, sounded a warning bell for Ye Wuque and the Nine Heavens side.

The Other Shore's murderous intent toward Ye Wuque is now unabashed, even willing to employ elder strongmen.

This also means that Ye Wuque's future path through the Bian Huang will be even more perilous, but also… more dazzling!

After countless campaigns and countless trials of blood and fire in the Bian Huang, one day, after completing an urgent support mission in a warzone, Ye Wuque followed the instructions his father Ye Zhengrong had previously transmitted by a special method, and finally arrived beyond a seemingly ordinary gray‑brown star that concealed a Bian Huang towering titan.

Beyond the star, there were no heavily garrisoned troops, only several layers of seemingly ordinary yet containing supreme Dao Rhythm hidden formations.

Following the guidance, Ye Wuque passed through the formations, and the scene before his eyes opened up: a tranquil, vast little world and an ancient, simple giant‑stone Great Hall came into view.

He took a deep breath, calming the slightly turbulent emotions from successive battles, and stepped into the little world, walking toward the Great Hall.

The closer he got, the more he felt a warm, heavy pull emanating from deep within his bloodline, a resonance unique to close kin.

When he stepped over the threshold of the Great Hall and saw the towering figure standing with hands behind his back, back to him, even with his now rock‑solid Dark Heart, his eyes warmed slightly.

Decades… from the boy who once struggled in the lower world, seeking his father's and Fu Bo's footsteps, to now a name that shakes the heavens, a lone Bian Huang War God, this road he has walked too long and endured too much suffering.

And the figure before him is one of the most important beacons and goals on his path forward.

Sensing his arrival, the towering figure slowly turned.

Their gazes met.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.
