Chapter 72: Get Rid of It

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Immortal Phoenix circled down from the sky. Ye Chen was shocked by the miserable state of the sea of corpses in front of him. He did not expect that after not asking about the Divine Court for a few days, such a miserable state would actually appear.

Ye Chen looked around the corpses and saw that none of them were still alive. Looking at the large number of corpses, Ye Chen turned and saw that there were still some injured and mutually supportive people looking at him. Although there was no hatred in their eyes, he could see the helplessness in their eyes.

Ye Chen tried his best to control his trembling hands and tried not to be angry or rash. He was afraid. He was afraid that if he could not hold it in, the Divine Phoenix would burn everything here to ashes.

However, he still struck a stone beside him angrily.

Ye Chen was not familiar with all the people here. It could be said that he did not even know their names. However, they died because of him. Although it had nothing to do with him directly, they died for the Divine Court.

Back when he took them in, although he didn’t hold much hope that they would be grateful, he didn’t expect them to stand up for the Divine Court.

This time, they had more or less died because of him.

“I didn’t kill Boren but Boren died because of me.”

Ye Chen looked at the five people who were still shouting. He thought that he had been tolerant and indulgent towards them all this time. It seemed like it was time to end it.

However, the five of them did not know Ye Chen’s intentions. They looked at Ye Chen, who was standing there sadly, as if they were looking at a joke.

He, Ye Chen, had never been someone who would allow others to bully him. He had always felt that he had to endure more because of his bad temper. However, there was a good ancient saying that if he could not tolerate it, there was no need to.

“Kun Peng, I have a use for keeping a breath.”

Ye Chen did not go to the few people opposite him. He only looked at Kun Peng and said his request.

Kun Peng looked at Ye Chen and nodded. With a Roc’s Roar, it soared into the sky with the wind.

The thing that Wang Dong and Li Yan thought about the most in the past few days was wondering if there was really a Divine Beast here as those five people said.

When Wang Dong and Li Yan saw the Kun Peng chasing after the five people, they only looked and had no intention of stopping it. The main thing was that they wanted to see if there was really a Divine Beast.

The Kun Peng broke through the clouds and headed towards the five of them before transforming into a Kun Peng to devour them.

When Wang Dong and Li Yan saw the transformation of the Kun Peng, the two of them couldn’t believe what they had seen. However, the excitement and joy in their hearts finally made them confirm to each other that what they had seen was a Divine Beast.

Especially Wang Dong’s entire body started to tremble, he kept shaking Li Yan at the side, afraid that he was dreaming or seeing things.

Meanwhile, Li Yan was already stunned when he saw the Kun Peng. Divine Beasts had always existed in legends, let alone looking at them at such a close distance.

Thinking about Wang Dong’s words from before, he felt that it was very far away. Now, he felt that everything was possible. As he watched the Kun Peng swim in the air, Li Yan even thought of how he would inherit his family’s house in the future. Then, they would bring his family out of the city to the county, then to the territory or even farther.

Then, he would be the hero of the family. If he really brought the Divine Beast back, not to mention the distance, it would be close. When he returned this time, he would definitely make those people who bullied them in the family not dare to bully them anymore.

Li Yan turned to look at Wang Dong who had been shaking him, then looked at the other Divine Beasts beside Ye Chen. He thought further.

Wang Dong looked at the Kun Peng and was thinking about how to make it submit to him. He wanted to make this Divine Beast his Beast Spirit Throne.

It was said that a man’s heart was not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant. However, who in this world was truly contented? As long as one was contented and had a good ending, they had always been a scourge for long periods of time.

He had to obtain this Divine Beast. He had to.

Seeing that Kun Peng had already thrown the five people far away from Ye Chen, Wang Dong then saw the other Divine Beasts beside Ye Chen.

“Are all the people around him Divine Beasts?”

Wang Dong stood up excitedly and looked at the few Divine Beasts beside Ye Chen, asking Li Yan beside him in disbelief.

“I think so.”

At this moment, Li Yan was already panting heavily from excitement. Divine beasts were only legends outside. But not only had they seen them, they had also seen four Divine Beasts at once.

This time, it was Li Yan’s turn to reach out and grab Wang Dong. Meanwhile, Wang Dong was also stunned when he heard what Li Yan said.

However, in the next second, Wang Dong jumped into Li Yan’s arms happily. The two men hugged each other and happily kissed each other’s faces.

“Hahaha, Li Yan, we’re rich.”

Wang Dong got down from Li Yan and happily picked him up. The scene was somewhat awkward.

However, Li Yan, who was at the side, was also very shocked, but he was also more composed than Wang Dong. It was just that his heart was currently in turmoil.

He knew that there were Divine Beasts here but didn’t expect there to be so many. One had to know that Divine Beasts had always been a legendary existence outside. Now that they had really been found by him and Wang Dong, he naturally couldn’t miss such a good opportunity. No matter what, he had to bring them back and show them to the elders in the clan, see how Li Yan did something that they couldn’t do.

As long as they said that they would not bully them anymore and did not dare to look down on them, he, Li Yan, was not the kind of person to fuss over minor matters, but he was also not someone who could be bullied by anyone.

Although the family seemed to not dare to slight them now, if he could bring all the Divine Beasts here, wouldn’t the few big families in the city submit to their families?

When Li Yan turned to look at Wang Dong, he had a thought. Could it be that if Wang Dong died, these Divine Beasts would all be his? However, if Wang Dong really died and he returned with the Divine Beast, then Wang Dong’s family would also snatch the seeds.

Wang Dong, on the other hand, looked at Li Yan and knew what he was thinking. However, he only saw through it but did not say anything.

“Li Yan, we came at the right time. Our wait these days was not in vain.”

Wang Dong was a smart person and had grown up playing with Li Yan. Wang Dong could tell what Li Yan was thinking at a glance.

Li Yan also understood that Wang Dong had seen through everything about him, so he stopped pretending and directly started a conversation in his heart.

“Is that the legendary Luan Feng?”

Wang Dong signaled Li Yan to look at the Divine Phoenix beside Ye Chen. Li Yan only briefly read through the ancient books and only remembered the flames around the Phoenix when it transformed.

“I remember that the ancient books recorded that after the Phoenix Phoenix Phoenix transformed, the flames around its body did not transform. I’m not sure but it must be a Divine Beast.”

“It’s just that although there’s a Divine Beast here, look at that person. He’s probably that Ye guy. From the looks of it, he won’t automatically offer a Divine Beast.”

Li Yan looked at Ye Chen and realized that Ye Chen was also looking over.

“If he doesn’t want to, we can just snatch it from him.”

Wang Dong smiled and walked towards Ye Chen.
