I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

Chapter 978 The Ability to Stabilize Fire, Gui Dian's Shock and Anger

"what!"

The young scholar and Tuoba Chili exclaimed in surprise at the same time, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Tuoba Chili, in particular, had a look of horror on his face, as if he had seen something terrifying.

Why is that kid still alive?!

No, rather, why is that kid completely unharmed?

My invincible demonic flames didn't even manage to harm that kid in the slightest. Was it an illusion?

In Tuoba Chili's eyes, Ye Kang was not injured at all, so the only possibility was that it was an illusion.

But then Ye Kang smiled slightly at him: "That's it? I thought your fire would be more powerful. It's very ordinary."

Ye Kang laughed as he stretched out his hand, a demonic flame swirling between his fingers. He gently pinched it, and the demonic flame extinguished instantly, causing him no harm whatsoever.

At the same time, a colorless bead floated above his head, and as it rotated slightly, all the demonic flames kept their distance from Ye Kang.

"It's that bead!"

The young scholar narrowed his eyes and instantly realized the problem. Without hesitation, he stretched out his right hand, and a terrifying burst of true energy descended upon Ye Kang, directly seizing his Fire-Stabilizing Pearl.

However, Ye Kang remained calm and simply flicked his wrist, unleashing boundless physical power that completely neutralized the young scholar's attack.

"Something's wrong with this kid's physical body!"

The young scholar gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, recalling what his elder brother had told him before.

That kid's true energy is strange, and his physical body is far beyond that of ordinary people. We must make full preparations, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

That's right, the young scholar was none other than Ye Xiang's younger brother from the Wu Dynasty. This time, it was his elder brother who arranged for him to intercept and kill Ye Kang.

If Ye Kang only had a conflict with Ye Yinghuan, then Ye Xiang would certainly be nothing more than that. But unfortunately, Ye Kang knew Ye Yinghuan's secret: she captured those rogue cultivators to use as cannon fodder for him.

This absolutely cannot be exposed. Once the matter is exposed, the court will surely condemn Prime Minister Ye, and the Emperor will certainly not let it go unpunished.

Some things may seem insignificant on the scale, but once weighed, they can feel like a ton.

In order to maintain his position, Ye Xiang had no choice but to completely eliminate this threat.

The young scholar's real name was Ye Hou, and he didn't pay much attention to it when he first accepted the task.

After all, Ye Kang was just an ordinary Yang Realm martial artist. Even if he was exceptionally talented, he would never be a match for someone like me who was at the peak of the Returning to Truth realm.

This is not arrogance or conceit, but absolute confidence in the difference in martial arts levels.

But now, Ye Hou regrets it.

Things turned out completely differently than he had imagined!

Just then, Tuoba Chili, who discovered that his demonic flames were useless, became even more enraged.

He roared, "What a joke!"

He then flashed forward, gripped the steel whip with both hands, and swept it towards Ye Kang with all his might.

After all, the difference in cultivation level was overwhelming, and this move was extremely fierce, leaving no possibility of dodging.

"That's starting to look more like it."

Ye Kang's lips curled into a smile, and the Heavenly Axe of Qiong Cang appeared in his hand, which he also slashed forward with all his might.

The steel whip and the spear collided instantly, sparks flew as true energy exploded, and the sea beneath their feet was instantly reduced to nothingness.

The immense force was transmitted, and Ye Kang felt obvious pressure, but instead of retreating, his smile deepened.

He was never afraid of physical confrontation.

Boom!

Ye Kang unleashed his full physical power, concentrating it into a single point, which then violently trembled through the Heavenly Axe and the Sky Cang spear.

Tuoba Chili immediately sensed something was wrong, and felt the exhaustion he hadn't experienced in a long time.
