Free Web NovelChapter 323: Chapter 323: The Herbal Conference Turns into a Human Purgatory_1
Having slain dozens of people, Ye Ming entered a state of self-forgetfulness.
At this moment, his killing intent was fully unleashed.
His eyes bloodshot, every move he made was a killing blow, not giving anyone a chance to fight back, every strike was lethal.
"All of you, must die!"
Ye Ming sneered, his sense of excitement growing stronger and stronger.
The brave men charging at the forefront were slaughtered by Ye Ming in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, corpses were scattered everywhere.
Those who had been blinded by greed now gradually regained their composure, realizing they were no match and turning around to flee this hell on earth.
But would Ye Ming let them run?
A charm soared into the sky, followed by a massive thunderbolt descending from the heavens, striking amidst the crowd and instantly pulverizing dozens of people to ashes.
"Scoundrel, face my sword!"
A roar sounded as the leader of the Xuanyang Sect, who had narrowly survived earlier, leapt out again to attack Ye Ming.
Following closely behind him was Liu Song from the Iron Fist Sect and the Sheshan Sect.
Ye Ming let out a cold laugh and said, "You didn’t die just now, but now, you’ve come knocking on my door!"
He summoned the Sword Qi again, charging forward, and with a swing of his sword, he sliced the Xuanyang Sect member in half at the waist.
The second sword, thrust towards Liu Song, left a hole the size of a head in his chest.
The third sword, the leader of the Sheshan Sect, was cut vertically into two halves—even a worm wouldn’t have survived that.
The once clean ground was now flowing with the blood of the greedy, and the stench of blood permeated the entire estate, tantamount to a purgatory on earth. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
And Ye Ming’s slaughter was far from over.
His strength seemed inexhaustible, tirelessly slaying every greedy soul.
After the time it takes for a cup of tea to brew, the scene finally quieted down, with no one rushing up to make noise, and no one else wanting to cross swords with Ye Ming.
Those who could run had already fled the scene.
Those who couldn’t run only succeeded in depleting a bit of Ye Ming’s True Qi with their lives.
Ye Ming moved his tired limbs and walked towards the purple-robed Elder Tao.
"It’s your turn now!" Ye Ming said coldly.
Elder Tao’s hair was disheveled, his face a picture of distress. Seeing Ye Ming approaching, he frantically scrambled backward, his face twisting into a grimace uglier than crying, and said, "Ye Brothers, this is really a misunderstanding."
"Don’t be hasty; we can still talk things over!"
Having witnessed Ye Ming’s godlike performance, Elder Tao was totally panicking. He wasn’t good at combat to begin with, and his only reliance had been destroyed by Ye Ming. Now he felt like a lamb on a chopping board.
His soul was scared out of him, and with no regard for his own dignity, he begged with a tearful voice, "Misunderstandings can always be resolved, we don’t have deep hatred between us."
"As long as you don’t kill me, I promise to give you medicinal materials. Wanhua Valley has all kinds of herbs, treasures of every sort; as long as you spare my life, I’ll give them all to you!"
Ye Ming looked at him coldly and said, "Someone like you, with a black heart, capable of twisting right and wrong, without reason, I can’t possibly believe you. Keep those things for yourself. I’ll send you to meet King Yama."
Elder Tao stepped back two more steps, his voice quaking as he said, "Ye Ming, just wait a moment, listen to me! It wasn’t me who intended to distort the truth, it was entirely Liang Tianhe who caused all the trouble!" freewebnovёl.ƈom
"We have no enmity between us, think about it yourself, isn’t it he who orchestrated our fight?"
"As long as you don’t kill me, I’ll give you anything you want, except for my life, of course."
Ye Ming said coldly, "Don’t worry, he will certainly die without a doubt, but before I kill him, I’ll deal with you first."
"You two will go one right after the other."
Seeing Ye Ming’s unyielding demeanor, Elder Tao felt a surge of anger.
He glanced around slyly and suddenly pointed behind Ye Ming, exclaiming, "Watch out, Liang Tianhe is sneak attacking you!"
Ye Ming turned his head out of curiosity, but saw no one trying to sneak attack him. Instead, Liang Tianhe and his group, who had been there just a moment ago, had vanished without a trace, and Lin Mengdie had disappeared along with them.
He furrowed his brows, suddenly feeling a chill on his neck.
It turned out that Elder Tao had used this petty trick to launch a sneak attack on Ye Ming while he was distracted.
The dagger in his hand directly slashed across Ye Ming’s neck, and he thought he could kill Ye Ming on the spot, but his attack only managed to cut the skin on Ye Ming’s neck, causing no harm to him at all.
Elder Tao was very surprised, "What are you made of? Even such a sharp blade can’t kill you!"
"Elder Tao, you really didn’t disappoint me, your despicableness is appalling! Leaving you alive in this world is simply a disaster!" Ye Ming’s voice grew colder, as True Qi condensed into Sword Qi in his hand, ready to make a move against him.
Elder Tao raised his hands high and pleaded hurriedly, "Ye Ming, you can’t kill me! If you do, the people of Wanhua Valley won’t let you go!"
"They will surely hunt you down at all costs. We have many masters in Wanhua Valley and a good reputation in the martial world, there will definitely be a lot of people targeting you!"
"Let me go, and we will call it even."
Ye Ming had already grown tired of listening to his nonsense, and with a swift move of his hand, the Sword Qi formed with True Qi sliced through his throat, just as he had tried to do to Ye Ming moments before.
"You no longer have the right to be forgiven by me," Ye Ming said.
Elder Tao’s eyes widened in disbelief, "You... how dare you kill me?"
Ye Ming stood up slowly, "Why wouldn’t I dare?"
After saying that, he paid no more attention to the dying Elder Tao, instead he took out Spirit Spring Water and applied it to his neck, then took a sip to replenish his spiritual power.
The battle had depleted much of his vital energy, and he needed to restore his condition in order to rescue Lin Mengdie.
As the Spirit Spring Water was ingested, the wounds on his body began to heal at a visible rate, gradually recovering.
At that moment, Zhou Dalong, who had been hiding behind a corner of the table, poked his head out and said anxiously, "Mr. Ye, Miss Lin has been captured by them; they went in the eastern direction!"
Ye Ming nodded, and said to Zhou Dalong, "You leave this place first, I’ll go save her."
After saying this, he didn’t forget to toss Zhou Dalong a Protective Jade Amulet and instructed, "Those sects’ people probably haven’t gone far, be careful yourself."
Zhou Dalong nodded his head tremblingly, the shock Ye Ming had given him was too great, leaving a deep shadow in his heart that would likely take a long time to digest.
Meanwhile, after finishing his rest, Ye Ming had already run out, dashing all the way and in the blink of an eye caught up with the people from Mingxuan Pavilion.
"Let her go, otherwise all of you will die!"
Ye Ming’s voice fell from the sky, entering the ears of every Mingxuan Pavilion member.
