"He is the master of those two Sect Hierarchs from Night Heaven Sect, Ye Tianming and Ye Tianyin, who has co to seek revenge for his disciples,"
"It was this Black Eagle, together with Ming Yi, who just now delivered the challenge letter to the Eastern Sea King. That fellow from the Eastern Sea believes he's no match for this Black Eagle and ca to seek my protection."
"On the first day of January, Night Heaven Sect will witness my encounter with this peak Martial Artist. Let's see what he's truly made of,"
Ye Ling said indifferently.
There was no sign on his body that he was about to battle with a peak Martial Artist.
It was as if Ye Ling's ntion of going to Night Heaven Sect on the first day of January wasn't to fight a peak Martial Artist but rather to go sightseeing.
Upon hearing this, He Feng and the others didn't say anything more.

After all, they knew Ye Ling's strength all too well, even more so than outsiders.
A peak Martial Artist might be formidable, but it wasn't enough to make them worry about Ye Ling encountering any accidents.
Ti quickly moved on to noon, and a jeep drove into the Eastern Sea military headquarters.
"Sir, Wang Kaoshan has arrived; I'll go to receive him,"
Wang Tiezhu said over the phone from inside the villa.
Ye Ling nodded slightly, and then Wang Tiezhu left the villa.
Soon after, Wang Kaoshan followed Wang Tiezhu and entered the villa.
"Sir! You wanted to see ?"
Wang Kaoshan said to Ye Ling with a respectful deanor.
Ye Ling nodded slightly and said, "I have already reached an agreent with the Eastern Sea King. He will help the Eastern Sea Martial Alliance develop within the Eastern Sea territory."
"Whether the Eastern Sea Martial Alliance can take this opportunity to soar will be up to you. Don't disappoint ."
At these words, a touch of joy imdiately appeared in Wang Kaoshan's eyes, and he quickly said, "Rest assured, Sir!"
"Good, Wang Tiezhu, take him to et the Eastern Sea King,"
Ye Ling motioned with his hand.
Afterward, Wang Tiezhu and Wang Kaoshan left the villa to find the Eastern Sea King.
Days hastily passed, and soon it was the first day of January.
This was the New Year's Day in the Dragon Nation, also the start of the new year.
The whole Eastern Sea was imrsed in the joy of the new year, a scene of festive celebration everywhere.
However, only a select few who knew that today a world-shaking battle would take place on the ruins of Night Heaven Sect had left their hos early to hasten to the site.
Even though the Eastern Sea King had tried his best to block the news of Ming Yi's challenge, the word that Ming Yi had proclaid his intent to challenge all strong individuals in the Eastern Sea with his own power spread rapidly throughout the region.
As ti passed, more and more people aware of this news set out for the ruins of Night Heaven Sect.
The Eastern Sea King, too, with the first break of dawn on the eastern horizon, arrived outside Ye Ling's villa.
Sensing the arrival of the Eastern Sea King, Ye Ling, who had already awoken, also stepped out of the villa.
"Northern Liao King, when do we set off?"
Upon seeing Ye Ling, the Eastern Sea King imdiately asked.
Ye Ling glanced at the eastern sky, just turning white, and said with a light laugh, "The day has barely started; there's no rush."
"Besides, Ming Yi didn't specify a ti. We'll leave after lunch, and by the ti we arrive at Night Heaven Sect, it will be sunset."
Hearing this, the East Sea King's face soured and he awkwardly said, "Northern Liao King, sohow the news of Ming Yi issuing a challenge has leaked out, and now most martial artists from the East Sea have already rushed to the Night Heaven Sect."
"If we arrive late, I'm afraid these martial artists will laugh at us."
After several days of cultivation, the East Sea King had regained so of his strength, which also made him see the hope of restoring his forr glory. Naturally, he did not want to beco the butt of the joke at this ti.
If they hurried to the Night Heaven Sect earlier, and then Ye Ling defeated Ming Yi, who possessed the peak War King strength, in front of the majority of martial artists from the East Sea, the East Sea King's prestige would also surge exponentially.
Having an ally within the East Sea forces capable of defeating a peak War King, coupled with the recent annihilation of Sky Wolf Island and the Zhan family by the Night Heaven Sect, was enough to recover all of the dignity that the East Sea King had lost over the years!
"What's the rush for? Are you eager to show off in front of the martial artists of the East Sea so as to restore your East Sea King's prestige?"
"External power is, after all, just external power. Do you really not understand such a simple truth?"
"Even if I defeat Ming Yi with my intervention and allow your reputation to once again deter the East Sea, but after I leave, you will still be unable to intimidate the weaker elents of the East Sea."
Ye Ling looked at the East Sea King and said indifferently.
The complexion of the East Sea King changed slightly, and after a mont, he sighed lightly and said sowhat helplessly, "How could I not understand such a simple truth? It's just that over the years, my control over the East Sea has been waning."
"If I want to restore the prestige of the East Sea forces in a short ti, this is the only way."
"As for after you leave the East Sea, I have my thods to intimidate the small-ti underbelly of the East Sea."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling looked at the East Sea King with surprise, nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll do as you wish. As soon as Su Rou wakes up, we'll set out for the Night Heaven Sect."
Half an hour later, Su Rou also ca downstairs.
Without wasting ti, Ye Ling and the rest set out for the Night Heaven Sect imdiately.
The Night Heaven Sect was still the Night Heaven Sect, only turned into ruins now.
When Ye Ling and his companions arrived at the Night Heaven Sect, the surroundings were already packed with people.
Each person bore a strong aura, the weakest among them possessing Grandmaster strength. Seeing the East Sea King arrive, these martial artists ca forward to greet him one after another.
"Greetings to the East Sea King! It's been a while, and the East Sea King seems to be getting younger, if we didn't know better, we'd think the East Sea King was reversing his age to return to his pri!"
"Hahaha! Indeed! The East Sea King has swept away his old deanor. I see once again the image of that sovereign king in you!"
"East Sea King, Ming Yi, relying on his bit of strength, dares to challenge the whole East Sea, even claiming he can resist the East Sea alone. Why don't we all lend a hand!"
...
One after another, the martial artists spoke to the East Sea King.
Watching the agitated crowd before him, the East Sea King's aged face revealed a slight smile; he had even forgotten how long it had been since he had last enjoyed such treatnt.
The change in attitude of the East Sea martial artists toward him was all thanks to Ye Ling.
Thinking this, the East Sea King gratefully glanced at Ye Ling.
But Ye Ling paid him no heed, just amusing himself by playing with the black eagle beside him.
The black eagle even took the initiative to nuzzle Ye Ling's hand with its head.
The black eagle was very well-behaved, seemingly truly frightened by Ye Ling. As long as Ye Ling left the villa, it would follow closely by his side, inseparable.
If Ye Ling did not leave the villa, it would stay quietly inside, without making any noise.
Even when Chen Dao and others played with it in the villa, it did not attack.
So much so that in the following days, Su Rou also mustered the courage to tease the black eagle a bit.
However, Su Rou was still sowhat afraid of the large black eagle and would only occasionally play with it.
