But no matter how desperate their cries were, it was for nothing.
They could only watch as the lovely woman perished before their eyes.
Amidst their devastation, they did not expect a burst of green light to erupt in the horizon.
The next moment, light arced across the heavens like a shooting star.
Before anyone realized what was going on, the light had arrived next to Qiu Mu-Cheng.
CLANG!
A bright metallic sound rang in the air. The light hit the dagger in Qiu Mu-Cheng's hands and sent it flying.
The sudden turn of events startled everyone.
Alarm flashed across the eyes of the woman who was adamant to kill herself.
"What's going on? What just happened?
Why did Miss Qiu's dagger suddenly fly out of her hands?" hollered Li Er with incredulity as he widened his eyes.
The Green Dragon Force seemed to have sensed something. They looked up in unison.
Lv Hua and the others also frowned and stared in the direction from which the light had come from.
It was clear that someone else had arrived on the scene.
Who could it be?
Was it a friend or an enemy?
Had Ye Fan himself returned?
Everyone's hearts were hanging in their throats.
It was then that a figure finally appeared in the distant horizon and in their line of sight.
He was dressed in white, his eyes bright like a starlit sky and his eyebrows trimmed and sharp like blades. He was the epitome of dignity and grace.
An air of absolute authority exuded from his person.
Upon his appearance, waves of invisible power swept the lands.
They felt as if they were not seeing the arrival of a mere man but a mountain rising from the earth.
"This...this is..."
Whatever arrogance Lv Hua had on his face vanished and was replaced by alarm when he saw the new arrival.
His face took on the pallor of a ghost!
Unprecedented horror and fear swelled inside him.
It was as if he had just been struck by lightning.
He stood there, lost for words and frozen to the spot while shock filled his eyes.
The man who had just arrived was the most powerful man in China and the leader of the six pillars of the nation. He was Ye Qing-Tian!
"On your knees!" Ye Qing-Tian's voice rumbled like thunder and reverberated across the heavens. Upon the sight of the mess before him, he had turned towards Lv Hua instantly and yelled furiously at him.
"How dare you! "
"Who the hell are you?"
"You've certainly got guts!”
"How dare you demand that our Young Master kneel before you!"
"You're asking to be killed!"
The martial artists of the Lv family blew up instantly when they heard what the stranger had just said and began hurling curses at the man in white.
"Oh my god! You're the ones asking to be killed! Don't drag me down with you!" cursed Lv Hua as he kicked those idiots. He had nearly wetted his pants when they had started cursing at Ye Qing-Tian. In fact, he was ready to burst into tears.
Sheer terror had nearly sent his soul fleeing from his very body.
This man standing before them was the most powerful man in the Chinese martial arts circle.
There was no one who could rival him in terms of the power and status he wielded.
He symbolized the entire Chinese martial arts circle.
