Chapter 378: Chapter 378: The Powerful Xiong Yibing

“Do you really think I will surrender myself to you just like that?” Upon hearing those words, Ye Fan let out a cold laugh.

He had long since transformed, no longer the person he used to be.

Even if his current strength was a mere fraction of what it once had been, with his profound foundation, he faced Xiong Yibing without fear.

Xiong Yibing clearly did not take Ye Fan seriously, and with a sneer, he said, “Young Master, surrendering is your best option! You should know that I am not a fool like Chen Longpeng, and you have just been in a fierce battle with him, your combat power must have been greatly depleted, hasn’t it?”

“Now that you are no longer at your peak, what do you have to fight me with?”

Having said that, Xiong Yibing’s face was filled with arrogance, as if it would be as easy as flicking his finger to kill Ye Fan.

“You’ve been here since the beginning?” Ye Fan asked coldly.

Xiong Yibing let out a chuckle: “That’s right! It’s quite a coincidence, I came to the Central Plains with the intention of killing you directly. Little did I expect that Chen Longpeng would actually seek to fight you to the death. I thought Chen Longpeng would kill you easily, but unexpectedly, Young Master, you have made remarkable progress and pushed that fool Chen Longpeng into a corner step by step!”

“However, this is not bad either! At the very least, Chen Longpeng has let me witness Young Master’s domineering side!”

He zeroed in on Ye Fan firmly, as if he was the ruler of this world, believing it would not be difficult to hunt down Ye Fan.

“Are all those who work with Ye Xunhuan this cunning and deceitful?” Ye Fan scorned.

Xiong Yibing said disdainfully, “Cunning and deceitful? No, no, no! This is called knowing your enemy and knowing yourself, for victory in a hundred battles!”

“Xiong Yibing?”

As Ye Fan and Xiong Yibing spoke, Chen Longpeng’s face became increasingly solemn.

The East Sea Chen Family and the Imperial Capital Ye Family were both part of the Top Ten Super Clans of the Heavenly Abode Country, it’s just that the Imperial Capital Ye Family had a deeper foundation and ranked higher than theirs.

Chen Longpeng had heard of Xiong Yibing, who was a top enforcer for the Young Master Ye Xunhuan of the Ye Family.

However, Chen Longpeng had never imagined that, at a critical moment, it would be Xiong Yibing himself entering the fray.

Especially the contemptuous manner of Xiong Yibing made Chen Longpeng really want to go forward and beat him thoroughly.

“How dare you call me a fool? That’s presumptuous.”

“Not convinced when I call you a fool? If it weren’t for me, you’d be dead already!” Xiong Yibing looked toward Chen Longpeng.

“Bastard!”

Chen Longpeng cursed in anger, but he didn’t argue too much since it was true that Xiong Yibing saved him just in time.

Realizing that the situation had become more complex, Chen Longpeng asked with a dark face, “What did you just call him? Young Master? Could it be that he is someone from your Imperial Capital Ye Family?”

“Exactly! He is none other than our Imperial Capital Ye Family’s Young Master!” Xiong Yibing nodded in confirmation.

“No wonder he is so strong!”

Upon learning of Ye Fan’s identity as the Young Master of the Imperial Capital Ye Family, Chen Longpeng seemed to understand something.

Xiong Yibing scoffed and said, “Of course! To put it nicely, he is our Imperial Capital Ye Family’s Young Master, but to put it nastily, he is just a bastard of our Imperial Capital Ye Family!”

“A bastard?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan clenched his fists in anger.

He knew that when his father had suddenly brought him back to the Imperial Capital Ye Family from elsewhere, no one dared to openly insult him because of Ye Nantian’s face-saving concerns. In reality, in the eyes of the Legitimate Line of the Imperial Capital Ye Family, he was nothing but a complete and utter bastard.

Thinking of this, Ye Fan was filled with raging hatred.

“How can a bastard possess such strong combat power?” Chen Longpeng asked in a heavy voice.

Xiong Yibing sneered, “Don’t ask too many questions! Asking too much isn’t good for you. From now on, he’s my responsibility, and you’d best stay out of it!”

“You…”

Seeing that Xiong Yibing completely disregarded him, the usually arrogant Chen Longpeng became furiously angry.

However, since he had expended so much of his Inner Strength, Chen Longpeng did not wish to continue fighting with Ye Fan. If Xiong Yibing was willing to intervene and restrain Ye Fan, it could be a good option.

“Stand down!” Xiong Yibing mocked.

“Hmph!”

Chen Longpeng’s face was covered with a shadow as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and reluctantly left the main battlefield.

“Master Peng actually stepped down? Could it be that this person will take on Ye Fan next?”

“Shameless! Truly shameless! Isn’t this the very definition of ganging up? After Chen Longpeng is defeated, they send another Martial King. Even if Ye Fan is strong, he cannot withstand a gauntlet like this!”

“Yes, indeed! It is truly despicable!”

Seeing Chen Longpeng withdrawn, as Xiong Yibing stepped forward, both the people of East Sea and those from the Central Plains were stirred by a considerable commotion.

“Fantastic! This is just fantastic!”

Both Su Tianhao and Su Yue, brother and sister, were very excited.

Just now, Chen Longpeng had been overpowered by Ye Fan, and they deeply regretted that Ye Fan had not died.

Now, with Xiong Yibing taking the stage, they once again saw the hope of Ye Fan being killed.

“Kill him, you must kill him! If Ye Fan isn’t killed, he’ll become a major threat in the future!”

Huang Zicheng roared manically, now even his uncle Chen Longpeng had suffered a terrible defeat at the hands of Ye Fan.

If Ye Fan didn’t die today, it would probably be him who would die.

Xu Family’s Young Master Xu Haoran turned to his sister Xu Ruoxuan and said, “Big sister, their conduct is simply shameless! I wonder if Mr. Ye can withstand this!”

“The excitement is about to start!” Xu Ruoxuan murmured to herself.

“What? The excitement is about to start?”

Xu Haoran was baffled, as he had no idea what exactly his sister was trying to express.

Xu Ruoxuan, a woman who combined beauty with wisdom, could tell that Ye Fan had yet to use his full strength, and it could well be that Ye Fan would sweep through the field with an irresistible force soon.

“Young Master, are you prepared to die? Hahahaha…”

On the small island, Xiong Yibing gripped his Battle Sword tightly, his inner strength was robust, and the aura of a Martial King was released without any restraint.

Ye Fan said coldly, “The dozen or so Ancient Martial Artists who chased me on that snowy night years ago were all under your command, weren’t they?”

“Correct!”

In response to Ye Fan’s query, Xiong Yibing retorted with a jeering tone, “Back then, Young Master wanted me to kill you personally, but I didn’t care to lift a finger, so I sent over a dozen subordinates after you. Unexpectedly, they let you slip away by luck! But now, killing you is still not too late!”

“Good! Make your move!” Having finished asking, Ye Fan locked onto Xiong Yibing’s figure.

He had long harbored towering hatred for the Imperial Capital Ye Family, and now that Xiong Yibing had come to assassinate him, Ye Fan planned to use Xiong Yibing as the first to fall by his hand.

“Young Master, are you sure you want to struggle in vain?”

The playful look on Xiong Yibing’s face lingered for a long time, as if all of Ye Fan’s struggles seemed futile before him.

“Enough talk, since you want to make a move, I will send you on your way!” Ye Fan declared with commanding presence.

“Send me on my way?”

Upon hearing these words, Xiong Yibing immediately shouted in a furious rage, “Heading towards death and still spouting nonsense! You refuse the toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, Young Master, don’t blame me for being ruthless then! Kill!”

As his words fell, Xiong Yibing held his Battle Sword and, with a swoosh, crazily lunged towards Ye Fan.

“Is he finally taking action? Can Ye Fan still hold up?”

Witnessing Xiong Yibing’s bold move, a disturbance arose around Yanming Lake.

“Worthy of being the super enforcer by Ye Xunhuan’s side, this fellow indeed has unmatched combat power, and I fear his combat power is not below mine!”

Watching the ferocious aura emanating from Xiong Yibing, Chen Longpeng’s face grew solemn.

He could see that Xiong Yibing was a seasoned Martial King, having stepped into the Martial King Realm much earlier than him.

If he were to battle it out with Xiong Yibing, it was really hard to say who would win or lose.

But Chen Longpeng could be certain of one thing: at this moment, with Xiong Yibing suddenly attacking Ye Fan, given that Ye Fan was significantly spent, facing Xiong Yibing’s ferocious onslaught, Ye Fan would have great difficulty defending.

“Come! The debt the Imperial Capital Ye Family owes me, today, I will begin to repay with your blood!”

Facing the fierce oncoming Xiong Yibing, Ye Fan had a piercing gaze, holding his Three-foot Wooden Sword, he instantly entered the state of Man-Sword Unity.

“Is this…Man-Sword Unity?”

Feeling a sudden surge in Ye Fan’s aura, Xiong Yibing was quite taken aback.

It’s known that in this world there are many Swordsmen, yet very few can achieve the profound state of Man-Sword Unity.

Just now, Chen Longpeng’s display of Man-Spear Unity against Ye Fan had already shocked him, but he hadn’t expected Ye Fan to also reach the advanced level of Man-Sword Unity.

Locked onto Ye Fan, Xiong Yibing exclaimed with disdain, “Young Master, the intense battle you had with Chen Longpeng has drained you considerably, even if you’ve achieved Man-Sword Unity now, it won’t be enough to counter my assault, go to hell!”

With that shout from Xiong Yibing, his Battle Sword transformed into a blur as it fiercely stabbed towards Ye Fan.
