Chapter 501 What Arrogance

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"Hahaha! Nie Li, what an arrogant tone!" Ye Han sneered, a crimson glint in his eyes as he hovered forward, his gaze fixed on Nie Li.

He had let his hatred for Nie Li consume him for years. Day and night, he fantasized about tearing Nie Li's flesh apart. But when Nie Li suddenly vanished from the Tiny World and ventured to the Draconic Ruins Realm, Ye Han's obsession grew even stronger. Now that Nie Li had appeared before him again, how could Ye Han not be ecstatic?

Nie Li looked at Ye Han coldly and growled, "Ye Han, you betrayed the Glory City and the Nether realm. Do you now feel a shred of shame?"

"Shame? What's that?" Ye Han laughed maniacally, licking his lips with a sneer. "Nie Li, you destroyed everything I had. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this position. Since you're here, it's perfect for us to settle everything once and for all!"

The moment Ye Han finished speaking, he transformed into a streak of light and launched himself toward Nie Li.

With a loud rumble, Ye Han released a powerful surge of energy that moved like lightning, leaving behind a deep ravine in space as he passed through.

"Die!" Ye Han roared savagely, hurling a punch at Nie Li's face. The force of the strike cracked through the air like thunder, sending shockwaves that made the spectators tremble.

"Nie Li, watch out!" Luo Jian and the others screamed, their eyes wide open. "Ye Han has broken through to the Heavenly Fate Realm. Get out of the way!"

"Nie Li, dodge!" cried the Lord of Nether, rushing forward in an attempt to shield Nie Li.

But Ye Han moved too fast. Not only had he reached the Heavenly Fate Realm, but he had also absorbed the Primal Chaos Spiritual God's laws. As a result, the Lord of Nether couldn't make it in time. All he could do was watch helplessly as Ye Han drove his punch into Nie Li.

Facing Ye Han's punch, Nie Li stood completely still—almost as if paralyzed by fear.

"No!" Ling Yun and the others screamed in horror, their eyes wide with shock. They had already witnessed Ye Han's overwhelming strength before, and even someone in the Heavenly Fate Realm would struggle to withstand such a punch.

In the next moment, Ye Han's fist landed with a deafening explosion. Smoke billowed as the shockwave blasted outward with tremendous force.

Ling Yun and the others watched in horror, unsure whether Nie Li had survived. Had that single devastating blow killed him?

Ye Han felt his punch land and burst into laughter. "Hahaha! Nie Li, so what if you were chosen to enter the Draconic Ruins Realm? In the end, you're still dead by my hand—"

His words stopped abruptly.

His eyes went wide with disbelief, and his mouth hung open as he stared straight ahead in shock.

Everyone began to wonder what had happened when they saw Ye Han's reaction. When they followed his gaze, their expressions froze in astonishment.

"That's…"

The sound of people swallowing nervously echoed through the crowd.

As the smoke cleared, Nie Li emerged completely unscathed—not a single hair out of place. He extended one finger, blocking Ye Han's punch, while his other hand casually picked at his ear.

With a slight frown, he asked, "Ye Han, what did you just say? I didn't quite catch that. Mind repeating it?"

"That's impossible!" Ye Han recoiled in shock, his face twisted in disbelief. "I've devoured the Primal Chaos Spiritual God's divine spark and killed countless experts in the secret realm. I've reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Fate Realm! How did you manage to withstand my attack?!"

With a furious roar, Ye Han lunged at Liu Wuxie again.

"Primal Chaos Shattering Fist!" He unleashed a flurry of punches, each strike forming a curtain of densely packed fists that engulfed the surrounding space.

But no matter how violently Ye Han attacked, Nie Li twisted his neck and shifted his steps, dodging left and right like a drifting leaf. Not a single punch even touched a strand of his hair.

"Ye Han, is this the extent of your progress these past few years?" Liu Wuxie sighed as he looked at him, his tone filled with disappointment.

"ARGH!" Ye Han screamed in frustration, continuing to throw his punches, but not a single one grazed Nie Li's clothes.

The surrounding onlookers were dumbfounded, their jaws nearly hitting the ground, eyes bulging in disbelief.

When did Nie Li possess such strength?

Ye Han hurled thousands of punches, yet none touched Nie Li.

Ye Han retreated several dozen meters and roared, "Damn you! Primal Chaos Explosion!"

He conjured orbs of primal chaos in his hands.

But Nie Li didn't even flinch. He raised his right hand, formed a knife edge, and swatted the orbs away like ping-pong balls. The orbs burst in the sky, each detonation blooming like a miniature sun.

The explosion sent a blazing heatwave sweeping across the sky, Luo Jian and the others ducked, shielding themselves from the shockwave.

"Ye Han, is that all you've got?" Nie Li stepped forward and roared, "You murdered so many people for this pitiful bit of power?"

"Who are you to judge me?!" Ye Han bellowed. "The Primal Chaos Spiritual God—that old fart—had been dead for so many years and continued to occupy the primal chaos laws. Why shouldn't I claim them? As for those ants, they were only nourishment for my growth!"

Ye Han gathered countless strands of primal chaos laws into a single massive orb, far larger than the ones before. Ye Han raised it high into the sky and hurled it toward Nie Li.

He roared, "Die!"

With a thunderous explosion, the massive orb tore through the air as it surged toward Nie Li.

"Still clinging to your delusions?" Nie Li muttered coldly.

He had lost all patience and blew a deep breath toward the incoming orb.

His breath surged like a violent gale, halting the orb mid-air before reversing its path and hurling it back toward Ye Han at lightning speed.

"NO!" Ye Han's eyes widened in horror.

With a deafening explosion, the orb blasted into Ye Han's chest. Flames devoured Ye Han's body, vaporizing him piece by piece until nothing remained.

"Lord Zhu Long… save me…" Ye Han reached out in Zhu Long's direction as his body crumbled and disintegrated under the heat.

Zhu Long watched the scene unfold, his eyelid twitching. Even though he had reached the Heavenly Star Realm, he froze in fear and chose not to act. The power Nie Li had just displayed sent a chill down his spine.

"This fellow…" Zhu Long muttered, his body trembling as he broke into a cold sweat as it streamed down his back. His eyes locked onto the composed Nie Li, disbelief etched across his face. "That power is beyond the Heavenly Fate Realm… Could he have reached the Heavenly Star Realm? Damn it! What exactly did he experience in the Draconic Ruins Realm?!"

Whoosh!

Realizing the danger, Zhu Long turned and bolted across the sky, abandoning Ye Han without hesitation—ignoring the latter's desperate, pleading gaze.

"H-He ran?"

The Lord of Nether and the others stared in disbelief. Even an expert at the Heavenly Star Realm had fled in fear.

Despair flooded Ye Han's eyes as his body turned to ashes, disintegrating from existence.

As Ye Han vanished into nothingness, Nie Li clenched his fist. He knew that showing mercy to an enemy was cruelty to everyone else. For the sake of everyone in the Tiny World, he couldn't afford mercy.

Casting a glance at the fleeing Zhu Long, Nie Li turned to Yu Yan and said, "Yu Yan, he's all yours."

"My pleasure!" Yu Yan replied with a brief smile. She vanished in a blazing streak of light, soaring through the sky before reappearing in front of Zhu Long, intercepting his escape.

"Zhu Long, didn't you say you wanted to devour my divine spark? Why are you running now?" Yu Yan asked, hovering gracefully in mid-air. "You've hunted me for years—it's time we settle this."

"Yu Yan, you dare face me alone?" Zhu Long's eyes gleamed with malice. "Excellent! Once I devour your divine spark, my cultivation will soar again!"

As he spoke, Zhu Long's body began to expand, twisting and morphing into a massive dragon—one with the face of a man and the body of a serpent-like beast. A stream of dark mist erupted from his maw and surged toward Yu Yan.

The dark mist surged around Yu Yan, attempting to smother her, accompanied by sizzling sounds, but her expression remained unchanged. She took a step forward and summoned flames that erupted around her, burning away the surrounding mist in seconds.

Whoosh!

Yu Yan raised her hand and hurled a flame directly at Zhu Long.

"ARGH!" Zhu Long screamed as flames instantly engulfed his body.

"How are you this strong? I'm at the Heavenly Star Realm! I should be the strongest existence in the Tiny World!" Zhu Long screamed, his face twisted in terror and agony.

"The Heavenly Star Realm?" Yu Yan shook her head and said, "No wonder you're so weak…"

Zhu Long widened his eyes in disbelief as Yu Yan casually waved her hand.

In the next second, the flames consumed Zhu Long entirely, reducing him to ash. As he died, radiant strands of laws burst from his body and lit up the sky.
