Chapter 1707: The first in history

“What power.” The clansmen and servants by the gateway looked up at the floating, tri-elemental fusion and gasped.

There were no unexceptional people in the Gu Family!

Even their servants, should they enter the outside world, could undoubtedly become nobility in their own right.

Their standards were high, and although the fireball didn’t look quite complete, they could still sense that terrifying power; the sight made their heights race.

No one standing at the gates dared guarantee that they’d survive, should this fireball hit them.

“What exactly is this youth trying to do?” The same question rose in countless people’s hearts. They weren’t sure what Ye Zichen had condensed this tri-elemental fireball for.

“Fuse for me!” Ye Zichen grit his teeth and clenched his fist. Three completely different elemental energies with nothing in common really did gradually start merging together

Fierce winds howled and surged around the blazing fireball, while thunder rumbled in its interior.

The people by the gates watched, their hearts on tenterhooks as they waited to see what Ye Zichen would do next.

In the time it took to brew a cup of tea….

Once the tri-elemental fireball formed, Ye Zichen moved. He pressed off against the ground and leapt like a nimble civet, traversing over a hundred meters.

He then stood in the air, gradually drawing closer to the flames. Although their heat was so intense, even the members of the Gu Family found it hard to bear, they did Ye Zichen no harm at all. However, as he drew closer, Ye Zichen discovered the fusion wasn’t as perfect as it had looked from the ground.

The three different enemies butted heads as if fighting for territory. From time to time, their collisions even produced sparks. It was just that from the outside, the sphere was covered in flames, so the sparks were not detectable.

At the same time, the combined elemental powers were showing signs of separating and collapsing. Ye Zichen’s heart clenched, and an imperial crown with five spiritual pearls embedded in it appeared on his head. He then forcefully lowered his right hand, as if pushing something to the ground.

“All of you, behave yourselves.” With the imperial crown’s powerful restrictive force, the elemental energies finally quieted down a little.

“I don’t care how displeased or uncomfortable you are right now. Pipe down and listen to me. So long as you break that sign for me, you can go off and do whatever you want!”

The fused elemental energies really did seem to understand his words; shockingly, they all calmed down at once.

Although Ye Zichen didn’t know it, the clansmen watching by the gates felt their eyes widen in shock.

Those who could remain among the Gu Family were all at least imperial experts. Even though Ye Zichen had lowered his voice, they’d have been able to hear him clearly even if he whispered.

But what had they heard just now…?

Ye Zichen wanted to destroy their sign!

Back within the tower, Gu Xuande sat upright. He was as unsmiling as ever, but he snorted, “Fusing three elements? Not bad!”

On the outside, he seemed like a senior looking at a member of the younger generation, but in truth, internally, he was so happy he could barely stand it.

“This little guy sure is interesting!”

“Fusing three elements? His comprehension of the Grand Dao of the Five Elements isn’t bad at all!”

“But kid, if you think you can break the ‘generous gift’ I left you with just three elements, I’m afraid you’re still too naive!” Gu Xuande cackled to himself.

Meanwhile, Ye Rong, who sat in the same room, looked visibly concerned. “Clan Uncle, how about I go…”

“It’s alright. I want to see just what the Emperor Star of our Gu Family is capable of! It’s just a signboard. If he breaks it, he breaks it.” Gu Xuande waved away her concerns, but inwardly, he muttered, “If he can really break it, I’ll rip off my head and offer it to him as a soccer ball!”

If it was just an ordinary sign, he naturally wouldn’t have been so confident after seeing the tri-elemental fireball.

But before Ye Zichen and company arrived, he’d left a special present hidden in that sign!

“This guy….” Qing Li couldn’t help but inwardly shake her head. Still, Gu Xuande was her husband, and she knew full well what he was thinking.

She was actually rather eager to see if Ye Zichen could really break the sign or not. It’d be more fun if she could; it’d be fun to see her man’s expression after suffering a setback!

“Sir Lan Tu, he’s trying to break our sign!”

“The city’s sign is like our face; how can we just let him trample it? Shouldn’t we….?” The experts of the Gu Family spoke up, one after another. Lan Tu’s expression was solemn, too.

He cared about the Gu Family’s dignity more than anyone, and breaking the sign to Gu City would be a slap in the face. He was keenly aware of that too.

However…

The family head had warned him not to interfere!

“Head of the Gu Family, I know you’re watching me!” Ye Zichen suddenly shouted into the sky.

When Gu Xuande saw this play out on screen, he was stunned, but soon, his lips curved at a bit of an upward angle.

“Hah….” A single burst of drawn-out laughter reverberated through Gu City. When they heard it, the experts gathered by the gates all knelt on one knee.

“So, you really are watching me. I think I get it now. You left this toy for me on purpose, didn’t you?” said Ye Zichen.

“If you want to enter our territory, you must first lower your head. If you want to pass through our gates, you must first set down your dignity. That doesn’t just go for you; any outsider who visits us must do the same,” that same dignified, imposing voice boomed once more.

“Interesting.” Ye Zichen sneered.

As she watched this play out on screen, Ye Rong found herself increasingly frantic. This wasn’t just anyone Ye Zichen was talking to; this was the head of the Gu Family, the half-step transcendent, Gu Xuande! She was truly terrified that Ye Zichen would anger him. She’d tried several times to intervene, only for Gu Xuande to stop her every time.

“Way I see it, you’re the interesting one. Do you plan to destroy my city’s signboard?”

“That’s right!”

“Hahaha…!” A burst of wanton laughter rang out overhead. “You want to break the sign? Throughout history, no one has ever succeeded!”

“So what you’re saying is, if I break it….” A hint of a smile tugged at Ye Zichen’s lips. He raised the fireball up, then flung it at the sign. “I’ll be the first in history!”

The blazing sphere of fire, sharp winds, and thunder howled towards the sign. Wherever it passed, it tore open pitch-black spatial rifts.

Countless Gu Family experts’ hearts clenched. Since establishing their territory, no visitor had ever shaken the stability of their dimension.

This fireball had actually torn open a rift, and such a long one at that. It was truly shocking!

Of course, they were still more concerned about the sign. If it broke, it would be a huge, resounding slap on the Gu Family’s collective face.

Boom——!

The tri-elemental fireball slammed into Gu City’s sign with perfect accuracy. The instant it collided, dazzling light burst from the sign, so piercing that those present couldn’t bear to look directly at it.

The Gu clansmen silently clenched their fists and prayed the sign wouldn’t get destroyed.

It wasn’t that they weren’t confident in it, but rather, that the fusion of three elements was far too shocking.

“Break for me!” Ye Zichen pushed his right hand forward. The sign and fireball collided with a sudden burst of golden light.

But it was then that….

Roar——!

The vigorous roar of a dragon suddenly burst from the sign, and shockingly, it swallowed the tri-elemental fireball up completely.

When he saw this, despite the fact that Ye Rong was present, Gu Xuande could no longer hide his smile. “You want to become the first in history?! I’m afraid you’re still far from reaching that level!”
