BTTH: Bearing Children to get Reward, I'll Create the Strongest Family

This illusory soul body that suddenly appeared was none other than Saint Yao Chen.

Once he emerged fromt the ring, he fixed his gaze on Chendeng, his voice laced with irritation as he asked "Who are you?"

Looking at Chenfeng in front of him, Yao Chen's heart was full of fear and panic.

Why does this person know of his existence?

That day Xiao Yan went to the Miter family's back manor, and Yao Chen knew the identity of this young man.

He had completely disregarded Chenfeng identity.

A direct descendant of the Miteer family?

A disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect?

Before this night, Chenfeng's identity was not taken seriously by Yao Chen at all.

How could the mere miscellaneous forces in the Jia Ma Empire be taken seriously by Yao Chen?

But now, looking at the smiling Chenfeng front of him, Yao Chen felt an inexplicable chill in his heart.

He has been hiding in the ring for so many years, even Xiao Yan who wears it personally never noticed him either.

But how did this person know about him?

Previously, when Ling Ying sneaked into Xiao Yan's house, he was the first to sense it.

But since the opponent's purpose was unclear and Xiao Yan was not harmed, so he chose to stand still and observe.

He is no stranger to Ling Ying.

He has been hiding in the Xiao family for so many years, and Yao Chen is also very familiar with his aura.

He was curious about Ling Ying's purpose, so he didn't show up to stop him and let Ling Ying bring out the ring smoothly.

But what he didn't expect was that Ling Ying would actually bring the ring to Chenfeng, not to Xiao Xun'er.

What shocked him even more was that this young man named Chenfeng actually knew about his existence.

In this vast world, there are many people who know about his famous name.

But in this Jia Ma Empire, there is absolutely no one that can recognize him, and it is even less likely that anyone can know his hiding place.

Yao Chen looked at Chenfeng's smug expression in front of him, and then at the Purple Electric Marten in the opponent's arms, and a trace of fear flashed in his cloudy eyes.

With the strength of his soul power, he could naturally sense at a glance that this cute-looking marten was very powerful.

Yao Chen looked again at Ling Ying who was still holding his ring, feeling a little confused.

Isn't this guy Xiao Xun'er bodyguard?

Why is he working together with Chenfeng?

Where is Xiao Xun'er?

Hasn't she already left the Xiao family?

How did her people get mixed up with this guy?

Could it be that she discovered that he had been absorbing her brother Xiao Yan's Dou Qi and came to seek vengeance?

At this moment, Yao Chen was filled with doubts.

The next moment, what Chenfeng said made Yao Chen's face change even more.

He saw Chenfeng holding Purple Electric Marten and not coming close. He held the Nether Soul Banner in his other hand and said with a smile: "Master Yao Chen, I have long admired your name!"

"Who are you?"

"Are you someone from the Hall of Souls?"

When Chenfeng directly called out his identity, Yao Chen could no longer remain calm and even spoke with a hint of trembling.

Any spiritual body can't help but be frightened when faced with an existence like the Hall of Souls.

Despite once being an illustrious 8-tier alchemist whose name echoed across the Central Plains, Yao Chen now found himself reduced to a mere spiritual entity. The loss of his physical form had not only diminished his power but also filled him with an unshakable sense of vulnerability.

Even as he floated above the black ring, his incorporeal state reminded him of the precariousness of his existence. Fear lingered in his heart—a stark contrast to the confidence he once carried as a celebrated alchemist.

He was painfully aware of the dangers that awaited him if his spiritual body were to fall into the clutches of the Hall of Souls. Their notorious methods for capturing and tormenting spiritual entities meant that his fate would be far worse than death. The thought alone sent ripples of dread through his ethereal form.

"Hall of Souls?"

"No, no, no, I'm not one of those disgusting people."

Chenfeng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

He looked at the frightened Yao Chen in front of him and wanted to laugh in his heart.

It seems that this old guy is very afraid of the Hall of Souls.

"You aren't from the Hall of Souls?"

Seeing that Chenfeng didn't seem to be lying, Yao Chen frowned.

Although he had some doubts in his heart, Yao Chen still breathed a sigh of relief.

In his current state, if he faced off against a Protector from the Hall of Souls, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, when he looked at Chenfeng's young facein front of him, he still had many doubts in his heart.

Why did the other party come to find him?

Looking at his posture, Chenfeng was obviously prepared for a fight and had already known of his existence.

He himself had kept his spiritual body extremely well hidden for so many years and had only met Chenfeng once.

At that time, he was hiding in the ring, and it was impossible for the other party to notice his existence based on his strength.

So how?

Seeing that Yao Chen didn't seem to believe him, Chenfeng didn't bother to continue talking.

He asked Ling Ying to bring Yao Chen's ring out not just for chatting.

"Xiao Zi, Ling Ying, let's do it."

After taking a look at the illusory soul body suspended in the void, Chenfeng touched the Purple Electric Marten in his arms and said in a somewhat cold tone.

Hearing this, Yao Chen's expression changed, this kid really had bad intentions.

The moment Chenfeng finished speaking, Ling Ying and Xiao Zi took action directly.

Ling Ying turned into black shadows and attacked Yao Chen.

The Purple Electric Marten turned into a purple lightning and released a stream of crackling lightning towards Yaochen.

"Damn!"

Seeing this scene, Yao Chen's face turned livid, and then a powerful aura burst out instantly, fighting with Ling Ying and Xiao Zi.

Above the dark sky, three majestic auras burst out and swept towards the surroundings.

Under this terrifying momentum, many people in Wu Tan City were alarmed and immediately a commotion started.

Many Dou Masters and people at the level of Dou Grandmaster, all came to the city wall of Wu tan City with shocked faces. Their eyes were amazed as they stared at the three fighting figures outside the city, horror soon written all over their faces.

A battle between three powerful experts!

In this small Wu Tan City, three powerful Dou Emperors actually appeared!

In the Jia Ma Empire, it was already very rare for a powerful Dou Emperor expert to appear, let alone Wu Tan City, a remote town in the Empire.

Under the Dou Qi oppression of these three experts, riots quickly spread in the city.

Amidst the chaos, countless capable individuals, initially stunned by the sudden turn of events, quickly sprang into action. With palpable enthusiasm, they launched themselves from various corners of the city. Like nimble fleas, they darted across rooftops, their eyes gleaming with excitement as they gazed at the trio of experts locked in combat high above.

For many, such battles between high-level powerhouses were a rare spectacle. The sheer display of strength and mastery captivated Dou Masters and Dou Grandmasters alike, who regarded such mighty warriors with a mix of awe and reverence.

Across the sprawling city, shadows flitted through the streets in rapid succession. The synchronized movements of these figures created an atmosphere both electrifying and intimidating. Hundreds of black silhouettes streaked through the night, their numbers forming an impressive and fearsome display that added to the grandeur of the moment.

Fortunately, no one could recognize these three figures, one was a spiritual body, one was a magical beast, and one was wearing a black robe.

Chenfeng stayed in the grove below them, staring at the battle above.

After a while, under the relentless assault from Ling Ying and the Purple Electric Marten, Yao Chen's defense began to falter. Despite his formidable skills, he was gradually overwhelmed by their coordinated attacks.

"You forced me to do this!"

A flicker of ruthlessness crossed Yao Chen's eyes as he resolved to take a desperate measure. With a sharp push of his palms, the air around him seemed to grow heavy and tense. An instant later, a massive pillar of forest-white flames erupted violently, illuminating the surroundings with a dazzling, otherworldly light.

The sheer intensity of the flames radiated an oppressive heat, forcing his adversaries to momentarily halt their assault. Yao Chen's eyes glimmered with defiance as he poured his remaining strength into this counterattack.

"Heavenly Flames!"

Feeling the power of this forest white flame, a trace of shock flashed in Ling Ying's eyes.

The Purple Electric Marten was also a little afraid and did not dare to touch the forest white flame.

"Bone Chilling Flame... Truly worthy of being ranked eleventh on the Heavenly Flames Ranking. Its power is extraordinary," Chenfeng murmured, his gaze fixed on the dazzling flames erupting before him.

The sheer force of the Bone Chilling Flame was undeniable. As Yao Chen unleashed its might, the tide of battle shifted instantly. Ling Ying and Xiao Zi, who had been pressing Yao Chen relentlessly, were now forced onto the defensive, their movements restrained by the searing cold energy emanating from the flames.

A faint trace of surprise flickered in Chenfeng's eyes. He had anticipated the Bone Chilling Flame to be powerful, but witnessing it firsthand was an entirely different experience. The flame's chilling intensity and destructive force were awe-inspiring, a testament to why it was so highly ranked among the Heavenly Flames.
