Chapter 259: An Opponent from a Thousand Years Ago

Ye Lin was aware of the incoming attack from the Demon Clan member; it was not that he did not want to defend himself, but that the treasure on his person had already been secretly deployed.

Although Ye Lin trusted that their Old Ancestor's strength would be able to withstand the Demon Clan member's attack, he still had to guard against unexpected events.

He could not afford any accidents at this moment.

Therefore, to Cang You, it appeared as if Ye Lin had not really reacted in time.

Zhou Yangzi, however, noticed that slight trace of an abnormal Aura.

Just as he was about to warn Ye Lin, he felt a familiar Aura approaching.

Zhou Yangzi smiled slightly.

He did not pay it any further mind, thinking, "I will leave the rest to you; do not let anything happen to Ye Lin."

Cang You flashed and vanished from his spot in an instant.

Upon reappearing, he had already arrived behind Ye Lin.

Although Ye Lin had been on guard, this speed still shocked him.

He was truly the strongest person of the Demon Race; if he were to face him, he would not have a shred of a chance of winning unless he could reach the Void Refinement Stage.

Even the Demon Race Void Refinement Stage cultivator who was battling Ye Lin did not react immediately.

Although he knew that Cang You would take action, the speed was truly fast.

The Demon Clan member battling Ye Lin smiled and said, "You are finished, Ye Lin. You cannot possibly defend against this strike."

He seemed to see the scene of Ye Lin's destruction and the moment when the Human Race would be plunged into despair.

"With Cang You's appearance, the fate of your Profound Heaven Sect is already sealed."

"Old Ancestor Cang You will bring despair to the people of the Southern Region."

At that moment, the instant Cang You appeared behind Ye Lin, he had already begun his attack.

The space around Cang You seemed to distort.

Cang You's palm strike seemed as if it would collapse the surrounding space.

Ye Lin reacted and looked at the distorted space around him.

The power of this strike could be imagined.

This Demon Clan member truly harbored deep resentment toward him; he was not intending to give him even the slightest chance.

Just as the Demon Clan member saw this scene and felt that he was about to succeed,

and at this moment, even Cang You was the same; this scene made him relax his vigilance slightly, and it did not allow him to notice that an Aura was approaching at high speed.

At the moment Cang You's attack arrived,

a figure blocked the path in front of Ye Lin, and Jiang Xue's sword parried Cang You's strike.

Violent fluctuations spread instantly, and the shockwave of that power continued to expand in all directions; those near Ye Lin were basically affected by the residual power emitted.

They were sent flying backward one after another.

This massive fluctuation of power caused everyone to look over.

Everyone turned their eyes to the sky, asking, "What happened? What is this vibration and energy about?"

"How is it so astonishing!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the power fluctuation, wanting to see exactly what had happened.

"It is coming from Ye Lin's side! Something unusual has happened over there!"

After everyone saw clearly,

they discovered that another Void Refinement Stage Demon Clan member had appeared in the sky.

Everyone who saw the strength of this Void Refinement Stage cultivator immediately understood.

With just one glance, they could tell how strong this Demon Clan member was.

There was no mistake; this Demon Clan member was likely the strongest person on the Demon Race side.

"Oh no, he has targeted Ye Lin. Ye Lin is in danger now."

Someone nearby saw this and said, "Do not worry, isn't there still another person? It was she who blocked the Demon Clan member's sneak attack."

When everyone saw the newcomer's attire, they knew that the woman who had suddenly appeared was an Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Sect.

Those who were not from the Profound Heaven Sect had no idea that the Profound Heaven Sect had such a person.

"You actually hid such a trump card. Your Profound Heaven Sect's Old Ancestor is truly impressive. It seems your Old Ancestor has been guarding against this Demon Clan member all along."

Upon hearing these words, the vast majority of the Profound Heaven Sect Disciples were actually confused themselves; they did not know that such an Old Ancestor existed within their Sect.

But this was a good thing; in this way, they had gained another measure of combat power on their side.

As for Leng Jiahang and the others, seeing the suddenly appeared Old Ancestor, they realized the Old Ancestor had finally taken action.

The few of them had not known that the Demon Race still had such a person who had not yet taken action.

Previously, they had been somewhat puzzled as to why the Old Ancestor had not yet taken action; it seemed it was because of this.

But they knew that the Demon Clan member who had appeared did not lose out in the slightest in terms of Aura compared to their Profound Heaven Sect's Old Ancestor.

It was even a bit stronger.

Their expressions were somewhat solemn, but they did not feel that their side would lose.

Han Shi had also been shocked when he just saw the situation on Ye Lin's side.

After all, ever since he returned to the Profound Heaven Sect, he had been paying attention to any unusual movements on Ye Lin's side.

Since Su Yu was not in the Profound Heaven Sect, Han Shi could not check the situation even if he wanted to.

Therefore, as soon as that Demon Clan member appeared just now, he had noticed it.

At that time, Han Shi was also very anxious, but he had no way to help.

It was not until the figure of their Old Ancestor appeared that Han Shi felt relieved.

Han Shi also did not know that there was such an existence within their Sect.

No wonder he did not look surprised at all when he saw Ye Lin notice it.

Although Han Shi and Ye Lin had a good relationship, Ye Lin had not revealed too much to Han Shi and Su Yu regarding such matters.

On one hand, Ye Lin might have been thinking of them and did not want them to have too much pressure.

On the other hand, it was definitely because the matters involving the Old Ancestors were not meant to be disclosed to those who were not supposed to know.

This could be gathered from the expressions of the vast majority of people who were unaware.

At this moment, Cang You looked at Jiang Xue, who had blocked his attack.

"I did not expect that you also have not left the Spirit Domain, Sword Immortal Jiang. It has been a long time since we last met."

"A thousand years ago, your strength was a notch below mine, and even now, it remains the same."

Jiang Xue looked at Cang You and said, "Cang You, you still like to play these little tricks, but the outcome this time will be the same as it was a thousand years ago."

"Your Demon Race is destined to fail!"

Cang You looked at Jiang Xue and knew that the chance he had to eliminate Ye Lin was now basically gone.

If he did not deal with this Jiang Xue, she would not let him leave.

But it did not matter; everything was still within the plan.

Cang You knew Jiang Xue's methods; she was not an existence to be trifled with.

They had fought a thousand years ago, and although his strength was slightly greater, it had also cost him quite a price.

This battle might be quite tricky.

Jiang Xue and Cang You stared at each other, their Battle Intent constantly rising.

This battle between the two of them could be said to be the most powerful one on the Profound Heaven Sect's side.

If Jiang Xue were to be defeated, the situation of the Profound Heaven Sect could be imagined.

At this moment, the pressure on Jiang Xue was no less than that on Ye Lin.

The two did not waste any words upon meeting.

In an instant, the figures of Jiang Xue and the other vanished from the eyes of the crowd.

Ye Lin watched the departing Jiang Xue and thought, "Old Ancestor, I will leave that one to you for now."

"I have already sensed that line; wait for me."

When Cang You left, he glanced at the Demon Clan member who was battling Ye Lin.

The person battling Ye Lin also knew the significance of this.

Their Demon Race side had also anticipated this situation.

They still had a trump card left, a trump card reserved for killing Ye Lin.

This was also the reason why Cang You had not cared just now.

It looked like he should also use that power; this time, Ye Lin must fall here.
