"Who, who are you?"
Duke Poly looked at the man before him, his words stumbling a bit.
This was an Oriental man, exuding a powerful aura, capable of destroying worlds!
Yet, besides being powerful, this man also brought a sense of tranquility, making him feel extremely bizarre!
Duke Poly overlooked the man's appearance, identity, origins, feeling only shock in his heart!
"Ye Chen!"
Unlike Duke Poly's dumbfoundedness, Athena reacted with ecstasy upon seeing the man.
The man who suddenly arrived was none other than Ye Chen, whom Athena had eagerly awaited.
"You are Ye Chen?"
Duke Poly, hearing Athena's exclamation, looked as if he had seen a ghost.
"That's right!" Ye Chen replied. "Are you surprised to see someone as handsome as me?"
Duke Poly: "..."
"What do you intend to do? Bully my sister-in-law?" Ye Chen asked, looking at Duke Poly.
"No, no!"
Duke Poly, standing close to Athena, had nefarious intentions, but hearing Ye Chen's words, he immediately retreated several steps, distancing himself from Athena.
Ye Chen's aura was unfathomable, making Duke Poly feel uneasy, an inexplicable fear gripped his heart.
Moreover, upon seeing Ye Chen, Duke Poly felt as if he saw the ancestral figure, leaving him stunned and drenched in a cold sweat.
What exactly was Ye Chen—is he comparable to the ancestor?
"I arrived early, otherwise you might have become my brother-in-law!" Ye Chen said with a smirk. "Did I ruin your plans, do you resent me?"
"..."
Ye Chen remained extremely calm, without a hint of anger. Yet, Duke Poly kept retreating, nearly wanting to turn and flee, leaving the place of trouble.
However, a force locked onto him, preventing him from acting recklessly. Duke Poly felt that if he dared to flee, he would immediately be crushed.
"Are you alright?" Ye Chen stopped teasing Duke Poly and moved to Athena's side. "You were trapped in the Blood Tribe's ancestral land, in grave danger, both your sister and I wanted to rescue you! But this place is perilous with a Great Saint overseeing it, and I wasn't sure if I could save you! During this time, your sister and I conserved our energy, tirelessly thinking of ways to save you, causing you so much suffering... I'm sorry, I came late!"
Ever since Athena was captured by Cain into the Blood Tribe, Ye Chen wanted to rescue her but was powerless.
This was the lair of the Blood Tribe, teeming with countless strong figures, and Cain himself, a Great Saint.
If Ye Chen acted rashly, falling into Cain's trap, not only would he fail to rescue Athena, but he might also risk his own life!
Thus, Ye Chen conserved his energy, adjusting his state... he really came late.
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Athena looked at Ye Chen for a moment, then suddenly wailed, bursting into tears.
"Ah, you finally came, why did you come so late, do you know how much I have suffered... ahhh!"
Athena cried fiercely, her tears streaming down as if she was washing her face.
Athena being captured by Cain into the Blood Tribe was indeed a calamity flying in.
In her days with the Blood Tribe, Athena endured humiliation and distress, harassed daily by Duke Poly, nearly wishing for death.
And just recently, Duke Poly showed his wicked intentions, seeking to violently assault her, leaving Athena in despair.
Had Ye Chen not suddenly appeared, she might have been defiled!
Thinking about the grievances she suffered these days, and the peril moments ago, Athena felt humiliated, wanting to cry and howl.
"Alright, stop crying, with me here, no one else can harm you!" Ye Chen consoled.
Athena indeed suffered greatly, but she was only aggrieved, not harmed.
Moreover, Ye Chen had arrived, found Athena, guaranteeing her safety.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen waved his large hand, terror appearing, the shackles on Athena shattered, turning into glowing sparks dispersing into the air, vanishing.
"This!"
Seeing this scene, Duke Poly's face showed a look of shock.
The chains on Athena were forged from outer-worldly cold iron, even Saints find it hard to break free.
Ye Chen merely waved his hand lightly, causing the cold iron chains to dissipate, transforming into wisps of smoke—this power was so terrifying that Duke Poly couldn't comprehend it.
However, Duke Poly's astonishment was far from over because after Ye Chen shattered the cold iron chains, his fingertip exploded with a ray of light, actually releasing the seal on Athena!
"My cultivation is restored!"
Athena felt her body lighten, an energy spread through her, her cultivation finally restored.
"He broke the ancestor's seal!"
With the seal on Athena's body disappearing, restoring her strength, Duke Poly was shocked beyond words.
Cain captured Athena back to the Blood Tribe, setting prohibitions on her that even Saints find hard to save.
How did Ye Chen, so effortlessly, rescue Athena?
Duke Poly looked at Ye Chen, looked at the broken chains on the ground, and then looked at Athena, who regained her cultivation—his mind couldn't fathom it.
This was the Blood Tribe's base, guarded by a Great Saint, as solid as a fortress.
Yet, not only did Ye Chen break in but also saved Athena, leaving Duke Poly bewildered.
Both the chains binding Athena and the prohibitions set by the ancestor were things that troubled Saints!
However, these terrifying prohibitions, in Ye Chen's presence, were utterly ineffective, leaving Duke Poly speechless.
"He, what kind of monster is he!"
In Duke Poly's eyes, Ye Chen was a monster—a being omnipotent, capable of anything.
Moreover, Duke Poly, holding high status within the Blood Tribe, always arrogant, suddenly encountering such a formidable kind stumped him.
"Duke Poly!"
Athena wiped tears from the corner of her eyes, suddenly looked toward Duke Poly with hatred.
"What do you want to do?" Duke Poly exclaimed in disbelief.
Ye Chen's presence made him panic, and with Athena suddenly turning hostile, Duke Poly's legs went soft, nearly collapsing on the spot.
"I want revenge!" Athena said hatefully, looking at Duke Poly.
"Cain took me back to the blood clan, I don't hate him!"
"But I do hate you!"
"I was trapped by the blood clan for eighteen days. Every day you came to disturb me, saying things that were unbearable. Aren't you fed up with yourself?"
"I've wanted to kill you for a long time, but I just never had the chance!"
"Now I've successfully escaped, regained my power, today is the day you die!"
Athena was really fed up with Duke Poly. Killing him wouldn't even relieve her hatred; she wanted to chop him into 180 pieces and eat them in a hot pot.
"Ye Chen, you don't need to make a move; I'll kill him myself!" Athena declared fiercely.
"Fine!" Ye Chen nodded helplessly.
He could tell that Athena was driven to madness and needed an outlet.
"Ye Chen, give me a knife, I want to chop him up!" Athena reached out to Ye Chen for a knife.
"Uh." Ye Chen was stunned for a moment.
Athena was extremely beautiful, with a charming demeanor. She was definitely an alluring woman.
At this moment, she suddenly burst with ferocity, looking like she was about to kill someone, which was... quite eye-catching, with a unique charm.
To Ye Chen, Athena didn't look fierce at all, but rather a bit cute.
Finally, Ye Chen took out a treasured knife and handed it to Athena to assist her in chopping someone.
"Duke Poly, prepare to die!"
Athena, with a fierce look on her face, charged at Duke Poly with the large knife in hand.
"Bastard, this is the blood clan's stronghold, you dare make trouble here?" Duke Poly suddenly became furious.
"Ha!" Athena laughed fearlessly.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Duke Poly's form erupted, transforming into the Golden Body Dharma Form, trying to break out of this ancient castle.
Duke Poly was very afraid of Ye Chen, always shrinking in the corner, not daring to make a sound.
But even though Duke Poly was afraid, he was the Other Shore Grand Master, and couldn't sit idly by awaiting death.
However, Ye Chen's cultivation was too profound, leaving Duke Poly unsure if he could escape.
So, he chose the most direct method, which was to start a storm, alerting the outside world, letting the entire blood clan know of the foreign invaders.
As long as he alarmed a few of the blood clan's elders and the great ancestor Cain, he would definitely be saved!
Moreover, as long as the ancestor descended here, no matter how great Ye Chen's abilities were, he wouldn't escape!
"Heavenly Emperor Domain!"
Ye Chen saw Duke Poly erupt into action and immediately saw through his intention.
Suddenly, an invincible aura burst from him, forming a strange domain covering this whole world.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Duke Poly's Golden Body was extremely large, capable of tearing through this ancient castle.
However, Ye Chen's domain was so powerful, locking down the entire world, that Duke Poly couldn't even break through this domain, let alone destroy the castle!
"Die!"
Duke Poly attempted to break through the Heavenly Emperor Domain, but Athena gave him no chance, charging directly and slashing at him with the knife.
"Buzz!"
The long knife in Athena's hand exploded with terror, cutting out a dazzling brilliance, violently killing towards Duke Poly.
"Boom!"
A horizontal slash came out, causing a wild surge.
Athena was a hall-level powerhouse, much stronger than Duke Poly, and in their direct confrontation, it was almost a one-sided crush!
Duke Poly's Golden Body was enormous with the power to overturn mountains and seas, but Athena was extremely fierce, wildly killing with a large knife, nearly chopping Duke Poly into eight pieces.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Athena's fierce momentum terrified Duke Poly, who didn't dare engage in direct combat.
However, Ye Chen's Heavenly Emperor Domain was too solid; no matter how he struggled, he couldn't escape, becoming a living target for Athena.
"Athena, you dare to commit violence in the blood clan, this is challenging my clan's dignity, you will surely come to a bad end!"
Athena seemed to be on adrenaline, aggressive and unstoppable, forcing Duke Poly to retreat again and again, not being an opponent at all!
Moreover, Athena's strong killing intent made Duke Poly terrified.
But Duke Poly was unwilling, unwilling to just die like this, silently and without a sound. But, since he couldn't fight, he could only curse.
"Die!"
Athena was cold and ruthless, with no mercy, directly slashing and smashing Duke Poly's Golden Body.
"Boom!"
With Duke Poly's Golden Body broken, his true body instantly tried to flee.
But, a long knife came from the sky, slashing his body, breaking open his flesh.
"Boom!"
The long knife in Athena's hand exploded, shattering Duke Poly's body.
"Poly is dead?!"
At the moment of Duke Poly's death, the Great Saint Cain was alarmed deep in the blood clan's ancient castle.
