capable, get him to save people!"Ye Bufan sneered: “You need to understand, that’s your woman. Are you just going to stand by and watch her be humiliated”As a man, shouldn't you stand up and protect...It's a pity these people are too naive. Even Yuwen Gong couldn't escape, let alone them.

Ye Tian, Xuanyuan Linglong, and Ye Erlang simultaneously attacked. In front of the three Immortal Emperors, these Immortal Venerable-level powerhouses were completely powerless to resist.

In just a few breaths' time, these people were killed on the spot.

However, under Ye Bufan's instructions, they only destroyed the physical bodies, while all their souls were collected into the magic suppressing bottle.

A great battle ended, and all the strong fighters from Lueyuan City were wiped out, including the three Immortal Emperors, all of whom perished utterly.

Those outside the city could only see the raging thunder and fire of the Heaven-Breaking Thunderfire Array filling the sky. They couldn't see what was happening inside, not even with divine sense.

Jing Bu and his son stood beside him, their eyes wide with alarm as they witnessed the scene unfold.

This scenario would be unbelievable if they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes.

When they were hanged, they had already accepted their fate and didn't expect such a drastic reversal.

"Old man, I am indebted to you for saving my life!"

Jing Lian, regaining his composure, strode forward and bowed to Ye Bufan in gratitude.

In terms of age, he was not sure how much older than the other person. In terms of seniority, Ye Bufan was Jing Buyun's friend.

But he didn't dare to underestimate him in the slightest, after all, the other's strength was there for everyone to see.

Not only is he incredibly powerful, but he is also a high-level celestial array master with many immortal emperor-level powerhouses under his command. This is definitely not something an ordinary person could achieve.

Even Jing Buyun was like this, bowing and thanking him beside his father.

"You're welcome, senior."

Ye Bufan hurriedly reached out to help the two men up. "My brother Jing and I are friends, brothers even. Besides, this misfortune that befell the Jing family was also caused by me, so this little thing is nothing."

His words came from the heart. If it weren't for him, the Jing family wouldn't have fallen out with the City Lord's Mansion.

If that's the case, then this tribulation must be due to my own doing.

What's most important is that both Jingbuyun and Jing Liankong show great loyalty. People like that are very worthy of friendship.

No matter what, Jing Liankong thanked him repeatedly. Finally, he said: "Young Master Ye, now that Yuwen Gong is dead, I wonder what your next plan is Why not directly become the city lord of Lieyuan City"

Ye Bufan was slightly taken aback: "Isn't the city lord appointed by those above Anyone who wants to do it can"

"There might be other places, but this one is different."

Jing Liankong said, "The city of Lieyuan was built by themselves in the Lieyuan star field. In other words, this place is only on the edge of the Upper Realm, and those major sects don't care about it at all."

So here, strength has always been paramount. Whoever possesses the power becomes the City Lord, without needing anyone's consent or an appointment.

In his eyes, the young man before him had killed Yuwen Gong and destroyed the Lan Tian Chamber of Commerce and the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce. Such strength and such prowess were more than enough to serve as City Lord.

Jing Buyun followed up, “Indeed, indeed, Brother Ye, with your abilities, even if you become the city lord, no one would dare to say a word against it. Otherwise, our Cang Hai Merchant Guild would be the first to object.”

"That's how it is."

Ye Bufan nodded, his gaze falling on Jing Liankong.

"Senior, then you should be the city lord."

"Me"

Jing Lian was stunned for a moment, not reacting at all.

Although the city lord of this Lieyuan City is not considered influential in the eyes of those large sects, he is an emperor-like figure in the Lieyuan star field. Countless people covet this position, but none have the strength to seize it.

And now Ye Bufan was within reach, yet he gave it to himself, making it impossible for him to accept.

Jing Buyun hurriedly said, "Brother Ye, this isn't appropriate, after all, you killed Yuwen Gong..."

"There's nothing wrong with that, to be honest. I'm just passing through here, not staying long. I still have a lot of things to attend to, so I'll leave this city to the seniors and Jing brother."

Ye Bufan patted him on the shoulder, "We're brothers at first sight. You and the seniors have suffered so much because of me, even a little compensation."

"Alright, then thank you."

Jing Buyun was an honest and straightforward person. He believed every word Ye Bufan said came from the heart, so he didn't beat around the bush. However, his eyes were filled with gratitude.

"Alright, that's settled then. I still have some things to sort out. I'll be leaving Lièyuán City in three days. We can say our goodbyes then."

Ye Bufan was very clear that although he had killed Yuwen Gong, there was still a lot of work for the father and son of the Jing family to do before they could accept such a large city.

Since he had just gone through the tribulation of annihilation and accumulated so much power of thunder, he needed to seize the time to improve his Thunder God Forging Technique.

Here everything is fake, strength always decides everything. If you are even a little weaker today, the one who dies today is yourself.

He raised his hand to withdraw the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Array, then with everyone in tow, his figure flickered and he returned to the inn they had previously chosen. He left everything else to be handled by the Jing family father and son.

He wasn't worried about their abilities. Having controlled one of the four major trading companies, the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce, for so many years, they must have their own unique strengths.

Now that Yuwen Gong is dead, aside from our own side, Jing Liankong has become the only Immortal Emperor in the entire city. Dealing with him should be easy enough.

Back in his inn room, he set up a barrier and then took out the Lei-Gathering Gourd. He began to use the Annihilating Divine Thunder to refine his indestructible golden body.

To experience nine heavenly tribulations in a single instance is extremely rare. Most cultivators usually only face the seventh or eighth tribulation before reaching their end.

So this time the harvest was abundant, with seventy-two Thunderclap Gourds laid out before me, each brimming with the power of lightning.

Ye Bufan began to wholeheartedly absorb and refine the power of thunder. According to his thoughts, so much thunderous power should be enough to send him to the peak of the Immortal Golden Body realm.

After a day of cultivation, he was astonished.

He had already consumed most of the power of the Extinction Thunder, leaving only ten thunderbolts in the Meteor Thunder Gourd. However, he had just reached the late stage of the fourth level of the Immortal Golden Body Realm, and there was still a huge gap to the peak.

He can certainly be sure that even if he uses up the last ten gourds, it will be impossible for him to make a breakthrough.

"What is going on"

This left him somewhat bewildered. In the past, if he absorbed and refined all of the Thunderforce, it would be enough to raise his God of Thunder Forging Technique by a major level.

But this time it's different, so many Lei Lei gourds, after experiencing the nine heavenly tribulations, the stored power of thunder is absolutely the most in history, but the realm has not reached its peak.

Could it be that the God of Thunder's Forging Technique requires too much thunder power in its later stages, and the Annihilation Lightning Tribulation alone cannot provide enough

Or perhaps Heaven's retribution, after several failed attempts to strike him down, had developed a sliver of hesitation, withholding the full force of its thunderous might

He patted his own head, this kind of thing couldn't find the answer at all.

But the results are in front of him. Now his strength is only at the late stage of the fourth level of Indestructible Golden Body, and there is still a big gap from the peak.

However, for now it's enough. With his powerful physique, he can rival a late-stage Immortal Emperor.d School, he had his own pride.He glanced at Li Qingzhu, "You're not bad, but you're still not my opponent. Just concede defeat!""Shameless!"As for this self-righteous person, Li Qingzhu didn't have a...
