Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 1271 - 1145: The Heavenly King Attacks!
"Thank you, Brother Ye Chen." Ye Zimei was filled with gratitude, tears falling gently, finally not having to marry someone she didn’t like.
Ye Chen lovingly stroked her forehead and said softly, "Zimei, I’m sorry for letting you suffer in the past, but from now on, you won’t have to. You can bravely pursue your true happiness, and no one can bully you anymore, I promise."
Ye Zimei nodded gently, tears glistening at the corners of her eyes, a smile of genuine joy on her face. However, when she glanced at the several stunning women beside him, a faint sorrow flashed past, her small hands clenching tightly, her joints appearing pale.
Do you truly understand the genuine happiness I wish to pursue?
"Combat Saint King, please take the seat of honor."
The Ye Family Patriarch personally invited him, treating him as equals, also inviting the Taichu Female Saint, Daughter of God, Chen’er, and others to sit on the highest throne at the central position of the Heavenly Heart Palace.
Naturally, due to Ye Chen, Ye Ao and Xia Wei were also seated on the most honorable throne, even though Ye Zhengyang, Ye Qing, and Ye Zimei were on the slightly inferior thrones, causing many in the Ye Family to sigh at the good fortune of Ye Ao and Xia Wei, becoming the parents of the Combat Saint King and suddenly reaching the heavens.
The banquet continued, and although Ye Chen didn’t make a point to question those who caused the downfall of Ye Ruoxian’s lineage, it made Ye Xiongjiu and others tremble in fear, having an inner reverence for Ye Chen.
Seeing Ye Chen converse with the Heavenly Saints without arrogance or servility, and a subtle sense of awe from these prominent figures towards Ye Chen, Xia Wei and Ye Ao exchanged a glance, feeling gratified that this child has grown to a stage making them proud.
Soon, the banquet reached its true climax when a wide space was opened, which contained the Martial Arts Arena, the actual place where the Ye Family’s grand competition was held.
The grand competition of the family was where the younger generation contended in the Martial Arts Arena to determine the strongest.
One could see that all talented Ye Family young leaders, as time passed, fell one by one, engaging in contests and matches.
These leaders were not many, only a dozen or so, but each was considered a true leader, at least Semi-Saint. Among them were young kings like Ye Heng and Ye Feng, comparable to the Saint, showcasing the strong vitality of the younger generation of the Ye Family.
Furthermore, this family grand competition wasn’t just a contest among the younger generation, but also rumored to be the competition for the future Family Head. The final winner would qualify to become the next Family Head.
In the end, everyone knew the final duel was between Ye Feng and Ye Heng, although they had been easily subdued by Ye Chen, like weak chickens, it was undeniable they were truly powerful. Setting aside the Combat Saint King’s exceptional prowess, they deserve respect as the leaders of the younger generation.
However, they did not actually battle because, as the family grand competition entered its later stages, young leaders from other great powers became eager, demanding to enter the arena for a showdown.
They engaged in duels to determine who was the strongest and who was the weakest among the young generation.
Bets were placed, and the atmosphere was intense, with some fights nearly deciding life and death, but were separated by the strong members of the Ye Family.
The most striking moments were when young champions entered the arena, defeating various young leaders from other powers, exhibiting an unbeatable attitude, making eyes shine with surprise.
Naturally, there were real champions clashing, including two young kings from the Ye Family and kings from other accompanying powers, intensely battling in the Martial Arts Arena, fighting hundreds of rounds with blood splattering, even tearing Primordial Spirits apart, yet unable to determine a clear victor, prompting cheers from strong observers from various powers.
Many seniors believe among these young kings, some might emerge victorious, even breaking through to the realm of Immortal True King, being highly anticipated.
However, when glancing at the Combat Saint King on the throne, who appeared calm and unperturbed, they couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
Although these young kings were dazzling and outstanding, compared to the Combat Saint King, they were merely flickering sparks competing with a bright moon, insignificant.
Many hoped the Combat Saint King would make a move, but shook their heads, as among the younger generation present, few dared to challenge him. If challenged, they would surely be thoroughly defeated, not even lasting a blow.
Perhaps only the Taichu Female Saint, Daughter of God, and Yaochi Saintess could truly battle, but they were the Combat Saint King’s fiancées, and would not challenge him. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Fairy Xi, may I challenge you?"
In the Martial Arts Arena, after a young king emerged victorious, he suddenly spoke toward Fairy Xi, issuing a challenge, causing a wave of astonishment.
Some worried the Combat Saint King might get angry because of it, especially the power to which that young king belonged, sweating anxiously, hurriedly saying, "Stop talking, Fairy Xi, you can actually be challenged."
Then the leader of that power rushed to apologize to the Combat Saint King, cupping his fists, saying, "Combat Saint King, please forgive, my disciple was reckless, not intentional, I ask for your understanding."
