The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1586 - 1583: One Strike

The pitiful Yegui Chengfeng did not possess the abilities of the Three-Eyed Blood Youth.

He couldn’t perceive the fearsome nature of Ye Xuan, leading him to commit a foolish act.

Then he was struck ruthlessly by Ye Xuan with a stick.

That single strike directly shattered the origins of many young members of the Night Ghost Clan, their souls trembling.

After that one strike, Ye Xuan did not make another move.

To deal with these ghosts, in Ye Xuan’s view, it was just a matter of one strike.

If one strike wasn’t enough, then another would follow.

Not to mention a bunch of young ghosts, even if the old ghosts from the three great ghost clan ancestral lands came out, they would only have the fate of being struck.

Under the Ghost Beating Stick, no ghost clan could endure.

Just like how departed souls face the Netherworld Guide.

Even if the power of the Netherworld Guide was far inferior to what the departed soul was in life, with the Soul Summoning Bell and the Soul Hook, the departed soul would only be restrained.

It’s the same for the ghost clan facing the Ghost Beating Stick.

Ye Xuan placed the Ghost Beating Stick back at his waist and came beside Yegui Chengfeng, stepping on his head to prevent him from rolling away.

But this step also saved Yegui Chengfeng, alleviating much of his pain.

"Help me find something."

"How about it?"

Ye Xuan calmly looked at the Yegui Chengfeng under his foot.

With a face pale as death, Yegui Chengfeng dared not refuse the words of this great demon, nodding repeatedly, "Alright, alright, alright."

Ye Xuan released Yegui Chengfeng.

However, in the next moment, Yegui Chengfeng instantly split into thousands, running off in different directions.

Though he agreed with his words, Yegui Chengfeng’s intent was to escape this person’s clutches, or else his death would be certain.

Ye Xuan was not surprised at Yegui Chengfeng’s reaction.

All beings in the world long for life.

Moreover, they aspire for immortality, eternal life.

Naturally, they all fear death.

So, in times of crisis, they unleash an unimaginable survival instinct, hoping to escape danger.

Unfortunately, they encountered Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan reached out with his large hand, not caring if it was Yegui Chengfeng’s true form, and casually grabbed one of Yegui Chengfeng’s divided souls.

With a gentle squeeze.

With a ’bang’, that divided soul of Yegui Chengfeng immediately turned to smoke, unable to dissipate, instead drifting within Ye Xuan’s palm.

"Forgive."

Ye Xuan drew a talisman in the void with his left hand, softly scolding, his tongue bursting with spring thunder.

Suddenly, the smoke formed from that divided soul of Yegui Chengfeng within Ye Xuan’s palm became inflated.

Subsequently, Yegui Chengfeng appeared in Ye Xuan’s hand, his neck held tightly.

"Why are you running so fast?"

Ye Xuan looked at the terrified, disbelieving Yegui Chengfeng, smiling slightly, "I haven’t even said what I’m looking for."

This time, Yegui Chengfeng was utterly terrified, crying, "Senior, spare me, please don’t kill me..."

Ye Xuan chuckled, "When did I say I was going to kill you? I need you to help me find something."

With a mournful face, Yegui Chengfeng replied, "Just say it, just say it."

Ye Xuan’s smile suddenly vanished, speaking coldly, "But your earlier actions made me feel it’s necessary to add a layer of shackle to you."

Saying this, Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul forcibly invaded Yegui Chengfeng’s main Life Palace, leaving a Soul Talisman over his Life Soul.

Having done this, Ye Xuan casually tossed him to the ground, speaking faintly, "If you dare run again, the soul talisman will explode, and your soul will be scattered."

Yegui Chengfeng’s face turned deathly pale, curled up on the ground, filled with despair.

He knew that this time, escaping was absolutely impossible.

Only, he was very puzzled as to why when he captured his divided soul, his main form was also brought over.

This baffled him.

The strength of the Night Ghost Clan lies in their countless divided souls, leaving enemies unable to find their true forms.

But this strategy, which never failed, seemed utterly useless before this human clan youth.

"Senior, may I ask why?"

Overcoming his fear, Yegui Chengfeng asked Ye Xuan.

At this moment, the other young members of the Night Ghost Clan had also recovered, though their faces were still pale.

They witnessed the scene just now, etched deeply in their hearts.

Hearing Yegui Chengfeng’s question, the Night Ghost Clan members all looked toward Ye Xuan, hoping for an answer.

Ye Xuan naturally knew what Yegui Chengfeng was asking, casually smiled, "Because I’m called Ye Xuan."

The young members of the Night Ghost Clan: "......"

What kind of ridiculous answer is this.

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on a round stone, speaking with calm eyes, "You’ve always remained in the Ghost Great World, never seeing the world outside. In your eyes, the Human Clan are lowly beings, yet you don’t know, the Human Clan’s development has long surpassed your Ghost Clan, and there’re ways to counter those innate divine abilities found among the great ghost clans. When you leave the Ghost Great World someday and meet the Human Clan, you’ll understand."

"What!?"

Upon receiving such an answer, the young members of the Night Ghost Clan were hard-pressed to accept.

Could the lowly Human Clan have developed to such an extent?

Could they restrain all the ghost clans?

No!

This must be some deceit from this guy!

None of the Night Ghost Clan members believed Ye Xuan’s words.

"Believe it or not, that is the reality."

Ye Xuan smiled lightly, offering no further explanation.

All of this, was true, naturally.

Only, not many people knew how to do it.

For example, the Immortal King Palace, Supreme Pavilion, Kunlun Ruins, and Primordial Hall, as well as the various Cave Heaven Blessed Lands of Daoism, all have similar methods.

Although the Human Clan isn’t yet the strongest overlord among the various races of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, they are definitely a powerful race in the world.

If you wish to provoke the Human Clan, think twice.

At the very least, among the Ten Realms, aside from the Xuanhuang Great World, there are still the Ancient Great World, Western Heaven Great World, and Wuji Great World, three worlds mainly inhabited by humans.

That alone is enough to explain everything.

The Human Clan’s only weakness, perhaps, is their penchant for internal strife.

Human nature is the most complex thing in the world.

For example...

The betrayal of the Double Emperors.

"What is it that senior seeks?"

Yegui Chengfeng didn’t believe Ye Xuan, nor did he ask further, changing the topic.

There was no longer any chance to escape, it was better to help Ye Xuan find that item, seeking a chance for survival.

The members of the Night Ghost Clan all looked towards Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan gently swiped his hand in the void.

In front of Ye Xuan appeared a black bead, about half the size of a fist.

"Go."

Ye Xuan transmitted the image and traits of this thing into the minds of the Night Ghost Clan.

"Alright."

The members of the Night Ghost Clan did not waste words, immediately taking action.

In an instant, countless Night Ghost Clan members continuously flew out from the valley, as if with no end.

Like a spring.

The innate divine ability of the Night Ghost Clan, without a doubt, perfectly matched for exploration.

It also aided Ye Xuan greatly.

With so many Night Ghost Clan members and Ghost Land creatures assisting, Ye Xuan believed that they would surely find it.
