Eternal Holy Emperor

Lin Tian was unclear, and several Lin Family Elders were also unclear, but the former saw the somewhat intimate interaction between him and Lin Ke'er earlier, and suddenly understood.

This is a helper invited by Ke'er, and such a heavyweight figure, truly a blessing for the Lin family.

Several Family Elders couldn't help but secretly inquire to Clan Leader Lin Tian: "Clan Leader, do you know Combat Saint King?"

Hearing a few disbeliefs in their words, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel a touch of pride. Though he didn't know, but his daughter's acquaintance equated to his own.

These old fellows, though they were also formidable Elders of the clan and the backbone of the family, always held some prejudice against him, especially after the family's ancestor passed away and the family began to decline under his leadership. They became less inclined toward him, and if they weren't of the same clan, they would've long left.

Now, taking advantage of the Combat Saint King's presence could fiercely deal a blow to these old fellows. Lin Tian remained expressionless on the surface, casually saying, "I don't know him, but Ke'er does. Otherwise, do you think Combat Saint King would meddle in this matter for no reason?"

Upon hearing this, the three elders all awkwardly smiled, yet did not retort, for indeed, if Combat Saint King was truly a friend of Lin Ke'er, it was undoubtedly a huge celebration for the Lin family.

Even if Lin Tian and others knew they couldn't attract such a grand figure like Combat Saint King into the Lin family, just making an appearance was already a great honor.

Moreover, Lin Tian saw his daughter looking at Combat Saint King with emotions subtly implied, and he was already considering, if Ke'er were to be married to Combat Saint King, bringing this great deity onto the Lin family's chariot, wouldn't it be even better?

Not only him, but even other high-ranking members of the Lin family were thinking this way, as recruiting Combat Saint King into the Lin family would be the greatest blessing.

"Combat Saint King, please show mercy!"

At this moment, Meng Ao hurriedly spoke, unable to watch idly as his clan elder was killed by Ye Chen. That was part of the Meng family's foundation, a powerful Heroic Master.

Even the Royal Supreme Elder hurriedly spoke: "Saint King, please spare."

He deeply understood what kind of power Combat Saint King held in the Emperor Dynasty, truly second to none and above all.

Only beneath the Heavenly King Ancestor.

Meng Family Elder, whose life was grasped by others, naturally hurried to beg for mercy. Upon knowing he was Combat Saint King, all resentment had long vanished, and there was no chance for hatred to grow when a person becomes overwhelmingly powerful.

But Ye Chen ruthlessly said, "Since he showed killing intent to me, tried to assassinate me, why should I spare him? Otherwise, wouldn't the world think Combat Saint King is easy to bully?"

"Your Highness the Saint King, don't kill—"

Meng Family Elder, feeling Ye Chen's killing intent, immediately shouted in desperation, but before finishing a sentence, his head separated from his body, flying up high, with blood spurting forth.

Then a finger pointed out, and a beam of light pierced the skies.

Pfft—

The head exploded, with countless peach blossoms blooming, a scene of tragic beauty, even the Primordial Spirit was completely annihilated.

Meng Family Elder, a generation Heroic Master, thus died and perished.

The entire Central Square fell silent, hearing a pin drop, as everyone stared blankly at Combat Saint King, in terror.

A Heroic Master, once so arrogant and unstoppable, soon fell, so cleanly and swiftly.

But no one dared to oppose, neither the Meng family dared nor the Emperor Dynasty's Supreme Elder.

Ye Chen then turned to Meng Ao's son, addressing Lin Ke'er: "Miss Ke'er, how would you like to deal with him? Should we kill him?"

Lin Ke'er was slightly taken aback, saddened by Ye Chen's somewhat unfamiliar address, but upon hearing this, her eyes widened in anger, glaring at Meng Ao's son Meng Hua, saying: "Brother Qian, I want him crippled, unable to cultivate for life."

Meng Hua's face immediately changed, being crippled in cultivation was even more severe than death, hurriedly looking towards his own father.

Meng Ao's expression changed, hastily saying: "Combat Saint King, you already killed one of my Meng Family's elders, do you truly intend to kill and eradicate all? Lin family, don't you go too far."

"Kill and eradicate? Going too far?" Lin Tian snorted coldly, "Weren't you the same before? Why won't you spare the Lin family, why do you want to kill and eradicate, going too far?"

This remark stifled the Meng family, leaving them speechless.

Ye Chen went further, "If you dare speak another word, I won't mind destroying the entire Meng family."

The entire field went silent, shockingly looking at Combat Saint King.

What is dominance, what is power, this is it!

The mighty Meng family, threatened to this extent, Meng Ao was filled with anger but when facing Combat Saint King's indifferent and ruthless gaze, it all dissipated, leaving mostly a deep-seated fear.

Because he believed Combat Saint King could truly do it, and the Emperor Dynasty wouldn't risk offending Combat Saint King for his sake.

Because the cost of offending was far greater than the entire Meng family.

Ye Chen flicked his finger, landing on Meng Hua, immediately shocking his entire being, with thirty-six thousand pores spouting out Essence Qi, representing his body's strength rapidly dissipating.

His realm swiftly shattered, dropping from Divinity Transformation to Demigod, then from Demigod to Innate, Acquired, and finally from Acquired to mortal, decades of painstaking cultivation vanished with a single finger.

Meng Hua screamed crazily, an immensely painful event, yet under Combat Saint King's personal intervention, he could only watch as it unfolded before him.

Blame could only lie on him for offending Combat Saint King.

"From today onwards, let the Lin family completely manage this Space Gate, both now and in the future."

In the end, Ye Chen spoke indifferently to the Supreme Elder, stunning everyone with his words, even more domineering than the Meng family's people.

The Supreme Elder opened his mouth, only to smile bitterly, saying: "Rest assured, Saint King, from now on it shall be managed by the Lin family."

"No, Supreme Elder, shouldn't it be the Meng family? It's the Supreme Emperor himself who issued the Dharma Decree." Meng Ao asked with reddened eyes, a hero was killed, his son was crippled, and now even the management rights of the Space Gate were being stripped away, how could the Meng family bear such successive blows.

Supreme Emperor? Even the Heavenly King Ancestor had to give face to this Combat Saint King, the Supreme Elder glanced at him with pity: "From now on it shall be managed by the Lin family, didn't you hear?"

Hearing these words from the Royal Supreme Elder, the Meng family's faces were bitterly unsavory, yet due to his status, they dared not express any discontent, and more daunting to them was Combat Saint King.

Given the Meng family's status, it was truly hard to muster any desire for revenge, with even a slight bit of hatred, ultimately leaving dejectedly with the few members of Meng family.
