Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 206

Chapter 206 Fatal Threat

In the void, another figure soared into the sky and sped far away.

Zhang Tians.h.i.+ looked in astonishment. “I can't believe that young fella can perceive Brother Cheng's whereabouts.”

Ou Yangming chose to escape in the opposite direction of the figure earlier, and the only way to explain this was he identified the vague and illusory voice's source.

He Liangce secretly admired Ou Yangming because he could not have done that. The young master lamented at once because while he still had trump cards to be used, they were from his clan's inheritance.

On the other hand, Ou Yangming had such accomplishments as an orphan, which caused other people to treat him with special respect.

“It's quite remarkable that two great ancestors put so much effort to ambush a little Yin Grade martial artist,” Ni Yinghong looked up and commented as her hair was gently blown in the wind.

She spoke softly and with elegance, but everyone could tell that she was mocking the great ancestors.

Zhang Tians.h.i.+'s face darkened. If a lady without a background had said something like that in front of him, he would have smashed her into meat paste.

However, a disciple from an influential clan with a formidable legacy could not be killed so easily. The real murderer could be found by using peculiar and unpredictable investigation methods, and he would not be able to escape regardless of his status.

Nonetheless, Zhang Tians.h.i.+ was a little mad to have been offended by a junior.

Ni Xueming immediately took a step forward and responded, “Don't speak nonsense. Why would two great ancestors go through the trouble to come here because of a few juniors like you? Hmph, the great ancestors are representing the imperial family to in…”

“Enough!” Zhang Tians.h.i.+ waved his hand and cut him off.

Ni Xueming quickly responded to him and backed away with respect.

Ni Yinghong stared coldly at Ni Xueming without threatening him, but the intense cold look in her eyes gave him chills.

He Liangce's face changed, and he suggested, “Senior, since the imperial family is already aware, we should work together without wearing out each other through an internal conflict.”

“Wearing out each other through internal conflicts? Is that young fella even worthy of being the cause of internal conflict? Heh, for the sake of your great ancestors from the He family and the Ni family, I'll overlook your nonsense.” Zhang Tians.h.i.+ could not help but laugh, then he waved his hand and uttered, “Let's go!”

He Liangce fixed his gaze on the great ancestor and asked, “Senior, may I ask where you're heading to?”

“I'll be honest with you; I'm going to see how Brother Cheng will handle that young fella. Heh, Brother Cheng is the master of that good-for-nothing from our clan. Since he encountered Ou Yangming, who killed his apprentice, it'll be a perfect chance for him to avenge his apprentice's death.” Zhang Tians.h.i.+ looked at He Liangce with a faint smile, which carried a hint of hostility. “What? Are you going to stop me?”

He Liangce took a deep breath and closed his eyes before he opened them again. “Senior, please forgive me… It's exactly what I was planning to do!” Ni Xueming trembled as he was surprised and enraged. 'What magic art did Ou Yangming do that He Liangce's willing to support him at all costs?'

Zhang Tians.h.i.+'s face had already darkened by then, and his eyes were full of killing intent. “You… Do you think I don't have the nerve to kill you?”

What kind of person was a Supreme Great Ancestor? How could their dignity be offended?

If one were to repeatedly displease a great ancestor-even if that person was the He family's eldest young master-one would only end up dying.

He Liangce chuckled. “Senior, you naturally have the nerve to do so, but it's not like I won't try to fight.” Zhang Tians.h.i.+ laughed out loud. “I can't believe the He family has a presumptuous and ignorant junior like you—it's truly saddening. It's fine, I'll take you down and let Big Brother He… Hey?” His face changed abruptly, and he stopped talking as though a sharp blade had cut off his voice.

The great ancestor widened his eyes at He Liangce while he kept his mouth shut. A confused look could be seen in his eyes, accompanied by a tinge of fear.

Ni Xueming staggered backward involuntarily. He stared at He Liangce too, but he kept s.h.i.+vering as if he was trapped in an icehouse.

He Liangce stood still at that moment and raised his folding fan to a chest level. His eyes and face began to redden while his robe fluttered like it was blown by a strong wind.

Moreover, his body released an exceptionally fearsome and powerful aura. Under the aura's oppression, not only was Ni Xueming unable to resist it, but even Zhang Tians.h.i.+ reacted as he had just seen a ghost.

He Liangce seemed to have transformed into a giant ancient beast at that instant, such that anything in his way would be crushed into powder.

“Iron Blood Loyal Heart, sacrificing for a n.o.ble cause!” Zhang Tians.h.i.+ uttered word by word.

He Liangce's garment kept fluttering in the wind as he looked at the elder without saying a word.

Zhang Tians.h.i.+ finally exhaled after some time. “Okay, I won't go; I'll stay here with you.”

He Liangce looked deeply at the great ancestor before his aura slowly declined.

“Thank you, senior.” He cupped his hands at the elder.

Zhang Tians.h.i.+ asked slowly, “Is that young fella worth it?” He Liangce answered with a grin, “He's worth it.”

“Heh, it's a pity that Brother Cheng is already pursuing him. I'm afraid that he has already captured the young fella and is slowly torturing him now.”

“I believe that Brother Ou can get away if he's only against one Supreme Great Ancestor.” He Liangce was still smiling.

Ni Xueming looked like he was in disbelief.

'Ou Yangming's only a Yin Grade martial artist, so how can he escape a Supreme Great Ancestor?' Nevertheless, he thought twice when he noticed how calm He Liangce looked.

'Since He Liangce can threaten Zhang Tians.h.i.+, what about Ou Yangming?'

Zhang Tians.h.i.+ looked at He Liangce for some time before he flapped his sleeves and sat with his legs crossed on the ground. The great ancestor closed his eyes to refresh his spirit.

Ni Xueming moved his lips, but he dared not say a word in the end.

Although Zhang Tians.h.i.+ did not show any sign of being infuriated, given that he was threatened by a junior like that, deep down it was inevitable for him to feel mad. If Ni Xueming were to get involved in bad luck at a time like this, the consequence would be unbearable.

He Liangce took a few steps back but remained opposite Zhang Tians.h.i.+ from a distance away.

He dared not let down his guard at all, and he only curbed his aura when he looked in the distance.

“This is as far as I can help you. I hope you can get away from him; please don't let me down.'

Ni Yinghong turned around and looked in the direction where Ou Yangming fled. She was still clenching her fists and was still extremely disgruntled.

'I'm so useless-so useless!

'If I can also threaten a Supreme Great Ancestor as He Liangce did, Lil' Ming wouldn't have to escape.

'Without He Liangce here, what would've happened to me?

'Become stronger… Must become stronger… I must become stronger!'

The mentality of the eldest young lady, who had been doted on by many powerhouses and knew no pain since young, finally underwent a thorough change.

Ou Yangming spread out his body and zoomed away like a soaring bird.

The voice earlier was heard coming from all directions, but how could it hide from Ou Yangming's senses through the thoroughly meticulous state? In fact, he had already noticed that person's existence before that person even spoke. That said, the person had a profound understanding of nature and was also a powerhouse who had fathomed the integration of Heaven and man. Therefore, Ou Yangming could not locate him even though he vaguely sensed the person's presence.

It was only when that person spoke, Ou Yangming instantly identified that person's whereabouts. Since Zhang Tians.h.i.+ feared He Liangce and Ni Yinghong, Ou Yangming figured that he could make things easier for his companions if he left. Needless to say, most importantly, he had confidence in He Liangce.

He Liangce definitely still had tricks to protect himself and Ni Yinghong, so even if he could not defeat Zhang Tians.h.i.+, he could at least take flight unharmed by deceiving the great ancestor.

This was why Ou Yangming could leave without a worry, or he would rather die in the fight of death with Ni Yinghong than running away alone.

Despite that, as soon as Ou Yangming started to flee, he sensed a pair of fiery eyes staring at him.

The person turned out to be a Supreme Great Ancestor who was not inferior to Zhang Tians.h.i.+ at all; he seemed to be more frightening than Zhang Tians.h.i.+.

This was because he willingly lurked in the dark despite his ident.i.ty as a great ancestor.

An Extreme Grade powerhouse who could disregard his ident.i.ty as a great ancestor was the most terrifying powerhouse.

“Young fella, don't be in such a hurry. I'll wait for you, so take your time to get away.” The chilly voice was transmitted into ou Yangming's ears like thin threads that stimulated his nerves.

Even normal Yang Grade powerhouses would be affected after hearing the voice.

However, Ou Yangming did not seem affected at all; his formidable mental power steeled his heart to be as solid as a cornerstone.

Ou Yangming's footsteps were still steady and powerful, and he did not waver at all.

The mighty Supreme Great Ancestor behind him did not accelerate; he maintained the same speed and followed behind the young fellow patiently. He curled his lips into a cruel smile, which was a look of excitement when a predator watched his prey scramble away. “How dare this young fella kill my disciple? Even the two treasures that I gave my disciple are missing.'

The great ancestor did not plan to kill the young fellow right away because he was ready to play a cat-and-mouse game.

After all, how powerful could a little Yin Grade martial artist be?

'Run, run. Once you're exhausted and hopeless, I'll see who you really are.'

There was a sinister look in his eyes, and instead of speeding up, he slowed down a little.

He enjoyed the hunting process very much.

Nonetheless, beyond his visible range, Ou Yangming, who was getting away with the big multicolored tiger's carca.s.s, had retrieved a dagger.

The Military Fire enveloped the dagger for a brief moment, releasing faint cold light that caused one to shudder with fear.
