Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 255: The Terror from Huang Yin and Su Yen

Looking at the extremely handsome and beautiful woman, reapers had their jaw dropped to the ground. For a couple of seconds, the reapers were too stunned to utter a word.

As Su Yen and Huang Yin stood before the stunned reapers, an air of tension enveloped the southern sea.

His ethereal white robe billowed around him, and his piercing gaze made it clear that he was no ordinary figure.

The reapers tightened their grips on their weapons, preparing for the imminent clash with the unknown handsome young man.

His sword-like eyebrows furrowed slightly as he observed the reapers, calculating the best course of action.

Huang Yin, the graceful woman by his side, exuded an air of tranquility that contradicted the chaos brewing around them.

Her violet robe swayed gently in the calm breeze, and her almond eyes held a captivating allure.

The reapers couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding as they stared at her mesmerizing features.

Breaking the silence with a calm voice, Su Yen addressed the reapers,

"You're fewer than I imagined."

His words hung in the air, making it clear that he was aware of their presence and unimpressed by their numbers.

The leader of the reapers, still recovering from her initial shock, blinked her eyes and attempted to regain control of the situation.

"Em… Who are you?" she demanded, trying to assert dominance despite the overwhelming odds.

Su Yen chuckled, casting a sidelong glance at Huang Yin. "You came to attack my home but don't know me?"

The revelation hit the reapers like a thunderbolt.

Wide-eyed, the leader stammered, "Y-You're the sect master of the Celestial Heavenly sect!"

The realization sent shivers down the spines of the reapers.

They knew they were facing a formidable opponent—one whose reputation extended far beyond the barren land they sought to conquer.

Sensing the tension in the air, the reapers tensed up, readying themselves for the impending confrontation.

The destruction of the barren land, their primary mission, suddenly seemed secondary in comparison to the threat standing before them.

Huang Yin, the ever composed counterpart to Su Yen, chuckled and tightened her hand around his arm.

"It seems they've remembered who you are," she remarked with a hint of amusement.

The duo stood as an indomitable force, radiating an aura that warned the reapers of the impending clash that would determine their fate.

"Before killing you, I want to ask. Who are you?" Su Yen inquired casually, as if discussing the weather rather than the impending confrontation.

The reapers, their spines drenched in cold sweat, turned their attention to their leader, waiting for her to respond.

The barren land, once considered the weakest on the continent, had become the stage for an unexpected shift in power over the past couple of months.

The arrival of Su Yen, the sect master of the Celestial Heavenly sect, had sent shockwaves through the hidden forces that lurked in the shadows.

Without waiting for their leader's reply, Su Yen speculated, "Perhaps, you're from the Ancient clans."

The reapers' eyes widened in astonishment.

How did he know about the Ancient clans? They silently questioned among themselves.

It was a secret that had been guarded closely, and the fact that Su Yen had mentioned it sent a ripple of discomfort through their ranks.

Before the reapers could recover from their surprise, Su Yen continued, a chuckle escaping his lips.

"I guess I'm right." His astute observation left the reapers with no choice but to maintain a cold, expressionless facade.

Their leader raised an eyebrow ever so slightly before returning to her neutral stance, but it was enough for Su Yen to confirm his suspicion.

"I need to know their location," Su Yen pressed on, his smile taking on a sinister edge.

"Tell me, and perhaps, I can give you a quick death."

His proposition hung in the air, a stark choice between cooperation and impending doom.

The reaper leader, however, met Su Yen's gaze with unwavering confidence.

"So what?" she retorted, her voice filled with bravado as if she were not afraid of the sect master before her.

Su Yen shook his head, his smile evolving into a chilling expression. "So what, you say?" he echoed, his eyes narrowing.

The reaper leader's words dripped with disdain, her voice cutting through the tension in the air like a cold wind.

"Are you stupid or what? Just because you have some measly formation protecting your land, you thought you can go against us. How naive are you?"

Her arrogance was palpable, fueled by the power and influence of the ancient clans that had defined the world for generations.

Huang Yin responded with a light giggle, the disdain not affecting her in the slightest.

Su Yen, too, wore an amused smile, almost as if he found their threats more amusing than alarming.

The reapers couldn't break a seemingly "measly" formation, and the fact that they had ventured out to confront them head-on spoke volumes about their capabilities.

"Really?" Huang Yin chimed in, her laughter echoing through the barren land.

The reaper leader's threats seemed nothing more than empty words to the celestial couple.

Su Yen's amusement lingered as he observed the reapers before him.

The pride emanating from the reaper's leader due to the power of the ancient clans had clouded her judgment, blinding them to the true force they were up against.

In that moment, Su Yen decided it was time to remind them of the presence they faced.

"I guess the pride that came from the Ancient clans has clouded their minds," Su Yen thought to himself.

The couple exchanged a knowing glance, silently agreeing on the need to reassert their dominance.

With a subtle nod from Su Yen, Huang Yin's demeanor shifted.

Her eyes, once filled with amusement, now emanated a potent energy that sent a shiver down the reapers' spines.

The gentle breeze that had swept through the barren land took on a more ominous tone, carrying with it the weight of a terrifying power.

"I guess I need to remind them of the presence of who they are," Su Yen mused.

With a fluid and effortless motion, Huang Yin summoned her long whip into her hand.

The reapers, still reveling in their false bravado, barely had time to register the sudden appearance of the formidable weapon.

The whip sliced through the air with a resounding whoosh, its terrifying power causing the very atmosphere to tremble.

The Southern sea beneath them seemed to quake as if responding to the horrifying force unleashed by Huang Yin.

Before the reapers could comprehend the impending danger, a series of thunderous bangs echoed, marking the impact of Huang Yin's devastating attack.

In an instant, the once confident reapers were sent hurtling into the distance, their bodies propelled through the air with a force they couldn't resist.

The air filled with their agonized screams as they were thrown like ragdolls, their voices a haunting chorus in the otherwise silent sea.

A cacophony of wails and cries reverberated through the air as the deadly whip tore through the hundred-strong group of reapers.

Flesh and organs were ripped apart, splashing into the air like macabre confetti before cascading into the Southern sea below.

The once calm waters transformed into a gruesome tableau of crimson red, thick with the stench of blood that permeated the air.

Dangling within Su Yen's palm, the reaper leader's face turned pale, her chest rising and falling with trepidation.

Her survival was not due to her own strength but the intervention of an unseen force, one that countered the monstrous strike from Huang Yin. .net

Fear gripped her as she questioned the nature of the celestial beings they had encountered.

"What type of monster did we encounter?!" she cried in her mind, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion and terror.

The events that unfolded were beyond her comprehension.

She had witnessed Huang Yin's swift attack, and the next thing she knew, she was cradled in the palm of the sect master of the Celestial Heavenly sect.

She cast a wary glance at Huang Yin, who remained poised and composed, her ethereal presence undisturbed.

The reaper leader, despite her fear, couldn't help but marvel at the celestial couple's ability to manipulate the very forces around them.

It defied the principles she had learned in the Ancient clans, shattering her world view.

Unable to contain her curiosity and dread, she managed to stammer,

"W-What are you? What kind of power is this?" Her voice trembled, a stark contrast to the air of authority she had carried before Huang Yin's devastating strike.

Huang Yin smiled sweetly at the reaper leader as she coiled her whip, a gesture that carried both grace and menace.

"Have you forgotten already?" she said with a voice that dripped with gentle authority.

"You're in the presence of the Celestial Heavenly Sect master, and I am his woman," she added, pride resonating in her words.

The reaper leader couldn't help but feel a shiver down her spine, realizing the weight of what she just heard.

Still grappling with the shock of the encounter, the reaper leader couldn't fathom the earth-shaking power displayed by Huang Yin and Su Yen.

Such might was inconceivable for a mere Foundation Building realm expert.

The realization that their power transcended the boundaries of mortal understanding left her both awestruck and fearful.

As Su Yen demanded the location of the Ancient Clan, his gaze bore into her, conveying an unwavering determination.

"Tell me the location of the Ancient Clan," he demanded, leaving no room for refusal.

Swallowing the lumps in her throat, the reaper leader hesitated before finally speaking, "I don't know... Our headquarters are not in the Ancient Clan."

"Then where is your hideout?" Su Yen pressed on, his patience wearing thin.

"I can't say it. Even if you kill me, you can't find it. There is a—" she began, but Su Yen interrupted with a knowing nod.

"I know," he said with a calm certainty. Su Yen had long detected a powerful soul seal placed on the reaper leader.

Previously he was unable to break it, circumstances had changed, and now he possessed the means to unravel its mysteries.

Fixing his gaze directly into hers, Su Yen summoned a profound sword intent that emanated from the depth of his eyes.

The chaotic sword intent sliced through the air, assaulting the seal on the reaper leader's soul.

Under the relentless sharpness of the chaotic sword intent, the seal could only withstand for a few seconds before shattering into countless pieces.

With the seal obliterated, Su Yen gained access to the reaper leader's memories.

After a minute of silent communion with her thoughts, he released her lifeless body, and it plummeted into the crimson-stained sea.

Turning to Huang Yin, Su Yen smiled. "Did you find out?" she inquired.

"I did," Su Yen affirmed, the revelation of the reaper's memories reflected in his eyes.
