After he finished speaking, Ye Yunfeng looked at the group of martial artists standing quietly before the villa and at Ye Liang in the front, and he burst into hearty laughter.
After the laughter died down, a sense of regret grew in his heart.
If carefully cultivated for several more years, these forces would have undoubtedly played a significant role in the battle against the Long Capital Martial Alliance.
Unfortunately, they were to be wasted today!
However, the thought of obtaining the corpses of at least seven or eight Innate Great Perfection Experts after this battle made his regret vanish into thin air.
Enhancing his own strength was naturally more valuable than these n!
Ye Taiqing's face was ashen, but a cold smile touched his lips. "You think these n of yours pose any threat? Even if the expert backing Xu Ke doesn't make a move, the eight Great Perfection Experts are more than enough to wipe out your worthless rabble."
However, even as Ye Taiqing said this, his heart couldn't help but tremble with fear.
It was normal for a large clan to cultivate a group of martial artists.
But for such a group to follow orders with military precision was terrifying!
Martial artists valued exceptional personal strength above all, so they were generally indisciplined. But now, Ye Yunfeng had summoned a troop of martial artists who were all expressionless and solemn, like emotionless killing machines.
And they were incredibly disciplined!
Ye Taiqing didn't dare to imagine what kind of power such a troop could unleash, especially under the command of soone as secretive as Ye Yunfeng.
All he could do now was cling to the belief that Xu Ke's subordinates could crush them with absolute power!
Ye Yunfeng looked at the fifty-six n standing silently, a contemptuous sneer on his lips. "Worthless rabble?"
"You have no idea what power my elite force possesses."
"Just watch, Uncle Four."
"Rest assured, as a final show of respect for the last elder of the Ye Family, I will allow you to be on your way after everyone else is dead," Ye Yunfeng said, his tone laced with mockery.
Ye Taiqing's face was ashen. At this mont, all he could do was pray desperately that his enemy, Xu Ke, would co to his rescue for Ye Feng's sake.
At the sa ti, a trembling voice ca from inside the villa, "Dad, do we really have to go to war with so many of them?"
As the voice fell, Yin Ping and Ye Yunfeng both turned to look back.
They saw Ye Chong walk out, his face pale and his body shaking like a leaf. He had clearly been terrified by what Ye Taiqing had just said.
Peak Level Martial Artist.
Eight Great Perfections.
Who wouldn't be frightened by such terms?
Can our Ye Family really defeat an enemy like that?
When the question arose in his mind, his imdiate answer was no.
If we could, why would the Ye Family still be lying low in Tianhai? We would have conquered Long Capital long ago!
"Of course," Ye Yunfeng replied upon seeing him, then frowned and scolded, "Look at the state of you! Have so dignity!"
Ye Chong was the only heir left to the Ye Family, but seeing him panic in the face of a crisis left Ye Yunfeng utterly frustrated.
In truth, the only heir Ye Yunfeng had ever truly cared about was Ye Fan.
But Ye Fan was dead.
Now, his hands were tied.
"Dad, I can't control myself..." Ye Chong's lips had turned white. "Do we have to fight?"
"Do you think they'll just stand down if I say I don't want to fight?" Ye Yunfeng snorted coldly, then added, "Besides, when have you ever seen fight a battle I wasn't certain of winning?"
"I've stayed in Tianhai not because I'm weak, but because I've been gathering my strength. Do you really think these people can defeat ?"
"Pull yourself together!"
Hearing this, no matter how frightened he was, Ye Chong could only stand by quietly and wait.
What if Father fails? How can I escape? I don't want to die! I have to live! I'm still counting on my Dantian, the one Xu Ke inadvertently enhanced, to beco a powerful martial artist!
Just then, Ye Yunfeng's confidant, Ye Liang, suddenly received a ssage and looked up. "Family Head, they're here."
"Good. Distribute the dicine."
Hearing this, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Ye Yunfeng's mouth.
"Yes!"
Ye Liang nodded. The n behind him imdiately began to distribute all the dicine that Ye Yunfeng had placed on the shelves in the basent.
Upon seeing the drugs, the eyes of these normally stoic martial artists finally flickered with emotion.
They knew that today was the day they would return ho in glory!
"Everyone, after today, you will possess fa, power, and wealth beyond your wildest dreams!" Ye Liang shouted. "For you will be the ones to successfully slay Innate Great Perfection Experts!"
"YES!" the n imdiately roared with fervor, their expressions intensely excited.
Most of this group's cultivation was at the Postnatal Middle Stage or Postnatal Late Stage. They were not young; the youngest was forty, a few years older than Xu Ke's previous opponents, Yuk Ming and Song Zhong.
These were n of extrely diocre talent. In any clan, they would be considered lowly, peripheral martial artists, treated worse than even an ordinary intellectual.
But since coming to the Ye Family, they had enjoyed resources and treatnt far beyond the ordinary and had taken dicines they could have only dread of.
Having been neglected for so long, this gave them an unprecedented sense of importance.
Furthermore, what filled them with pride was that the Ye Family Head had told them that the dicine they were using was a product of Martial Path technology never before seen in this world.
This dicine could grant ordinary martial artists like them the power that only geniuses possessed.
But... the price was to overdraw on their futures.
However, they already felt they had no future to speak of, so they couldn't care less if it was mortgaged. All they wanted was a single mont of brilliance in their ordinary lives!
So, they stayed with the Ye Family, trained daily, and strived for the one opportunity in battle that Ye Yunfeng had promised them.
He had told them that as long as they played their part in the crucial battle, they could leave the Ye Family with imnse wealth and live out their twilight years in extravagant comfort.
And now, the battle Ye Yunfeng had painted for them had finally arrived!
They knew that after this fight, they might never be able to fight again, but that no longer mattered.
To stand on the corpses of Innate Great Perfection Experts, to have one last mont of glory in an otherwise dim life, and to walk away with a fortune—it was more than enough!
As the n excitedly received their dicine, Yin Ping tsk-tsked, his expression full of pity, and whispered to Ye Yunfeng, "Will any of them survive?"
"It doesn't matter. If they die, they die. It's not hard to recruit another batch," Ye Yunfeng stated indifferently.
The dicine this group—and the n under Qian Jun—had previously consud were all inferior products created by Ye Yunfeng and Yin Ping.
Such substandard drugs would greatly enhance their strength and overdraw on their future, but they didn't consu one's life force.
However, Ye Yunfeng didn't believe the substandard dicine alone would be enough for his n to hold off an Innate Great Perfection Expert.
That's right. He never thought this group could actually kill an Innate Great Perfection Expert. He only intended to use their lives to stall Xu Ke's people and buy himself ti.
Therefore, the dicine Ye Yunfeng distributed this ti ca at the cost of their very lives.
And in exchange for their lives, they would gain control of a power that struck fear into even Ye Taiqing's heart.
Ye Yunfeng and Yin Ping called this power... Demonic Qi!
Just as the last of the dicine was distributed, Xu Ke and his party finally reached the mountaintop, coming face to face with Ye Yunfeng.
Chen Xiong, Wang Wu, Tang Yingchang, Shi Hongda, the two elders of Yin and Yang, Han Wang, Ye Lang, Hu Deyao...
When they appeared, they let out a cold snort, not even bothering with words. The auras of the eight Innate Great Perfection Experts surged forth in unison, crushing down on the Ye Family like a great beast.
