The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3273 - 3268: Persuasion? Absurd!_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Yang Chen let out a cold sneer, "King Wuye, are you suggesting I simply allow you to wreak all this havoc on the Three Flowers Sect?"
"It appears you hold a grudge against the King of Joyful Sound, giving you no grounds to meddle in the Three Flowers Sect's matters." King Wuye's nerves tightened sharply.
Standing with hands clasped behind his back, Yang Chen declared, "Both Spirit Flower Venerate and Nightingale Heavenly Venerable count as my close friends."
King Wuye's frame quivered at these words. Rage burned inside him, yet recalling Yang Chen's formidable power from slaying Cloud Highness Dharma King years prior, plus the possible ties to the Grand Abyss Palace, he saw no point in challenging Yang Chen's unexpected comeback today.
Just when victory seemed within grasp, Yang Chen's abrupt intervention left him seething with fury.
Even so, swallowing his wrath, he clenched his teeth and uttered, "Alright, Yang Chen, I'll respect your position for now. We're withdrawing."
"Hold on." As King Wuye turned to depart, Yang Chen spoke evenly, "Have I actually permitted your departure yet?"
King Wuye's form shook, and he spun back: "Yang Chen, what exactly are you implying!"
"Implying?" Yang Chen's domain unfurled without a sound.
His face grew icy the instant the domain stretched forth.
"Without my timely arrival today, the Three Flowers Sect would likely lie in ruins at your hands already!"
Suddenly, Yang Chen's domain burst forth like heavenly retribution crashing down, swiftly blanketing the whole Three Flowers Divine Region.
Once Yang Chen's domain engulfed the expansive divine region, every Kuotian Sect cultivator poised to assault the Three Flowers Sect froze in place amid its grasp.
Terror and dread gripped them all, clueless about the sudden shift. Yang Chen's domain proved utterly unbeatable. A lone figure had single-handedly reversed the tide for an entire sect.
Forget the Boundaryless cultivators—even King Wuye sensed profound terror and futility trapped within the domain.
"How... how can this be?" King Wuye's eyes widened in shock: "You've broken through to the Heaven-separated Realm!"
He understood full well that Yang Chen could already dispatch Cloud Highness Dharma King back in the Boundaryless stage. Now, stepping into the Heaven-separated Realm, the foe's might surpassed anything he could fathom.
Right here and now, with the domain extending, he lacked even the opportunity to resist.
Total helplessness consumed him inside the domain.
"Yang Chen, you!" King Wuye's frame quaked without restraint.
"Brother Yang Chen, when exactly did you come back?" In that instant, a new aura materialized—it was Heavenly King, showing up on the scene.
Heavenly King arrived alongside two King-level experts. Witnessing Yang Chen's reappearance, alarm surged through him.
"Heavenly King?" Yang Chen's gaze sharpened as he eyed the returning Heavenly King.
"Heavenly King, help me!" Panic overwhelmed King Wuye, fully aware he stood no chance against Yang Chen.
Yang Chen spoke deliberately, "Heavenly King, what brings you to this place? What message do you bring?"
Heavenly King eyed Yang Chen, who hadn't budged yet held King Wuye firmly under control. After a tense pause, he managed awkwardly, "Brother Yang Chen, conflicts between sects are commonplace. King Wuye's remarks don't warrant execution. Remember, he's a Heaven-separated Realm powerhouse in our Southern Realm. Slaying him would weaken our Southern Realm's forces."
Yang Chen held back his reply, merely casting a faint look at Heavenly King.
That single look made Heavenly King's body jolt.
"Heavenly King, do you claim that any King-level figure can freely massacre fellow cultivators and oppress their own sect's people?" Yang Chen stated flatly.
Under Yang Chen's stare, Heavenly King quivered, his complexion draining: "Brother Yang Chen, that's not my intention."
"Had I not shown up today, the Three Flowers Sect might have dodged calamity, but without me, what fate awaited the Three Flowers Sect? During the old clash between the Netherworld and the Southern Realm, the Three Flowers Sect offered key aid and losses. As Heavenly King, you surely recall this. With the King of Joyful Sound absent, you permit King Wuye to shame the Three Flowers Sect in this manner?" Yang Chen rebuked sharply.
Seated in meditation to restore their energy, Spirit Flower Venerate and Nightingale Heavenly Venerable grew quiet listening to Yang Chen.
They struggled to picture the Three Flowers Sect's doom without Yang Chen's sudden intervention today.
The disciples would all end up as slaves, while they turned into King Wuye's mere toys.
Yang Chen's fury stood entirely valid!
This rage stemmed not just from the Three Flowers Sect's plight, but from looming threats ahead.
Should King Wuye trample the Three Flowers Sect now, the Heaven Lord Pavilion could face the same tomorrow. The Spirit King Sacred Area lacked King-level guardians, after all.
King Wuye merely hesitated against the Spirit King and Yang Chen at present. But over time, nothing assured the Heaven Lord Pavilion's safety from becoming another Three Flowers Sect.
Heavenly King forced a rigid poise, rasping out, "Yang Chen, yet King Wuye remains a Heaven-separated Realm figure, after all..."
Yang Chen fixed a glacial stare on Heavenly King and replied tonelessly, "Heavenly King, don't force me to see you and King Wuye as kindred spirits, or else I won't hesitate to end you too."
With a resounding bang.
In the following instant, the unscathed King Wuye exploded into a bloody haze within Yang Chen's domain, obliterated by the crushing force.
Silence blanketed the area once he perished. Heavenly King never dreamed Yang Chen's power had escalated so far. Moments earlier, King Wuye had been flawless; now, he lay slain.
When Yang Chen resolved to take a life, who dared challenge him?
Attempting to dissuade? Ridiculous!
Heavenly King realized Yang Chen would grow mighty in the Heaven-separated Realm, but never anticipated such overwhelming dominance.
Tremors wracked his body and hands, born of primal dread in his core. He grasped that should Yang Chen truly target him, escape was impossible.
Yang Chen regarded Heavenly King with icy eyes, "Should genuine conflicts arise among Southern Realm folk later, I'll stay out of it. But pure tyranny on one side? I'll never stand by. If the Spirit King's absence emboldens you to act unchecked, you're dead wrong. Henceforth, any repeat offense, and I won't spare those here from sharing King Wuye's fate."
His words resounded across the expanse.
He was certain the mighty figures would catch them, even if they hadn't reached the spot yet.
As he declared this, his domain surged outward, a suppressive weight descending on all those gathered.
"Heavenly King, no qualms with that, I presume?" Yang Chen's gaze remained frigid.
Heavenly King jolted, "None whatsoever!"
"Depart at once." Yang Chen's voice cut like frost.
In Yang Chen's presence, these mighty ones perceived echoes of the Spirit King from his days atop the power hierarchy—an unchallenged supremacy none could oppose.
Defiant notions vanished from their minds. They had once schemed to claim portions amid the Three Flowers Sect's fall, but such plans dissolved entirely now.
Becoming the next King Wuye held no appeal!
