Ye Chen watched calmly. "A spatial summoning jade slip?"
Dense spatial fluctuations spread outward.....but no spatial passage formed.
The energy rippled briefly… then slowly dissipated into silence.
Gu Fei's pupils shrank violently.
"Don't waste your effort," Ye Chen said lightly. "This space is sealed. No spatial signal can escape.
Even if you destroy every jade slip you own, no one will come."
Gu Fei's heart sank completely.
"To possess such methods…" he said coldly, forcing himself to remain composed.
"You are no ordinary figure. Speak....are you from the Soul Clan? The Thunder Clan? Or the Flame Clan?"
In his mind, only the ancient clans dared provoke another ancient clan.
"Heh."
Ye Chen smiled faintly. "You ask too many questions."
"The time is up."
The Nine-Revolution Dou Zun experience was limited. He had no intention of wasting it.
Ye Chen raised his palm. Silver lightning gathered instantly, violent arcs spiraling into a condensed storm.
In the next breath, more than a dozen lightning dragons tore free, howling toward Gu Fei.
"So it is the Thunder Clan!"
Gu Fei's pupils contracted sharply. He roared as vast earth-attribute Dou Qi erupted from his body, forming an enormous earthen barrier before him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The lightning dragons crashed down simultaneously.
Earth was famed for defense....yet lightning was unrivaled in destruction.
Worse still, Ye Chen stood several realms above Gu Fei.
The earthen wall shattered almost instantly.
The silver dragons pierced through and slammed directly into Gu Fei's body.
"Boom—!"
Gu Fei was sent flying, blood surging violently within him as countless ancient trees were smashed apart in his path.
Before he could even stabilize himself—
Ye Chen appeared behind him in a flicker of silver light.
A palm extended.
A strange, formless force enveloped Gu Fei, freezing him in midair as though trapped in invisible chains.
With a mere thought, Ye Chen could crush this Six-Star Dou Zun into nothing but blood mist.
"So this is power…"
A strange gleam surfaced in Ye Chen's eyes. Such overwhelming strength could easily corrupt the mind.....but if controlled, it offered insight far beyond one's own realm.
"You Thunder Clan bastard!" Gu Fei roared, his appearance miserable. "When my Gu Clan learns of this, you won't escape!"
Ye Chen nodded thoughtfully.
"You're right," he said slowly. "It would indeed be troublesome if the Gu Clan discovered this."
Then, with a flick of his wrist, a jet-black pill appeared in his hand.
"…Which is why they won't."
Heh. No matter what methods you possess, the experts of my clan will eventually trace everything back to you. You won't be able to escape."
Even while trapped in a life-and-death situation, Gu Fei remained confident. In his view, if Ye Chen killed him, the Gu Clan would immediately detect the abnormality.
If Ye Chen spared him, his prolonged absence would still arouse suspicion and lead to an investigation. Either way, this matter would inevitably be exposed.
"Heh, the Gu Clan truly lives up to its reputation for arrogance." Ye Chen sneered coldly. "Do you want to know why Ling Ying so obediently works for me?"
Hearing those words, Gu Fei suddenly thought of something.
Terror flashed across his face as he blurted out, "What did you do to him?"
Don't worry," Ye Chen replied with a faint smile. "You'll become just like him very soon."
As he spoke, Ye Chen directly grabbed Gu Fei by the throat and forcibly shoved a jet-black pill into his mouth.
This black pill was none other than the Intermediate Puppet Pill.....a system reward obtained after Nalan Yanran gave birth.
Anyone below the Dou Sheng realm who consumed it would be transformed into Ye Chen's puppet.
The medicinal effects of the intermediate-grade pill were far more domineering than those of the beginner version.
The moment it entered Gu Fei's mouth, it dissolved into a stream of liquid energy and surged violently into his body.
"Ah—! What kind of pill did you make me swallow?!"
As the strange energy invaded him, Gu Fei was instantly thrown into panic, screaming in terror.
Ye Chen paid him no attention. Even a Half-Saint could not resist the effects of the Intermediate Puppet Pill, let alone Gu Fei.
