Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: The heaven and earth refining array

When Yun Chen arrived at the Yun family mansion, the sun was already high in the sky. When he entered, Yun stumbled upon the patriarch himself followed by the great elder and the second elder who were coming out of the main hall. Every disciple in the courtyard kneeled when they saw the patriarch at the exception of Yun Chen.
«Greeting, patriarch! » all the disciples said with a unified voice.
Yun Chen was standing in the middle of the courtyard fixing the patriarch in the eyes. The patriarch stopped after seeing Yun Chen there. It could be seen that the patriarch was containing himself.
«Yun Chen, how dare you don't kneel in front of the patriarch! Are you tired of living? » the second elder shouted after seeing the patriarch mood.
« Patriarch? Are you calling this thief our patriarch? What a joke! » Yun Chen replied with a cold voice.
«You.. » the second elder shouted.
«Yun Chen, where is Guanyin? You should have come together with…. » the patriarch Yun Guanxi asked calmly with a serous face.
«Your…. » Yun Chen was about to reply when the gate of the mansion suddenly exploded.
After the explosion, there were a lot of dust. But through that dust at the gate, an imposing shadow could be seen.
«Where is the man called Yun Chen? » a voice certainly to that shadow shouted.
When he shouted, all the dust was dispersed in an instant. That shadow was in fact an imposing old man. He was wearing luxurious clothes with a symbol engraved on the left chest. That symbol belonged to the Tiangong sect.
After seeing that, Yun Chen immediately understood why this person came here.
«Hand over Yun Chen immediately! » the man shouted again before grabbing a disciple.
«Where is Yun Chen? If you don't tell me, you will all die here! » the man said.
«It…it is him! » the frightened disciple shouted will pointing Yun Chen in the middle of the courtyard.
«Elder Bao, what business do you have with Yun Chen to barge in my house and create troubles? » the patriarch interrupted.
The patriarch wanted to kill Yun Chen but since that elder came, it must be that Yun Chen possess something very precious to him. So, he must obtain that thing before anything else. That is why he decided to interfere.
«Oh? Yun Guanxi, why are you trying to defend him? It seems that you have not be informed yet. » elder Bao said with a sly smile.
«What do you mean, elder Bao? » asked Yun Guanxi in confusion.
«You want to protect someone who coldly murdered your son? How laughable! » elder Bao said while smiling.
«What? » Yun Guanxi cried out in shock.
«Hahahah! Didn't you know? Yun Chen murdered your son inside the secret realm and there were a lot of witnesses! » declared elder Bao.
«Yun Chen! Is what elder Bao say the truth? » Yun Guanxi asked in anger.
«So what? Didn't you kill my father? We are even now! » Yun Chen said with a satisfied smile.
«Yun Chen, how dare you! I will personally kill you to avenge my son. Elder Bao, please, don't interfere, I will settle this myself! » Yun Guanxi said while turning back to face Yun Chen.
« Yun Chen, I admit that I underestimated, but today next year will be your death anniversary! » Yun Guanxi said before releasing a powerful qi al around him.
All the disciple around were blown away by the shockwave but Yun Chen didn't move one bit. Yun Guanxi suddenly dashed toward Yun Chen and used one of his most powerful techniques.
«Yun Chen, die! WOLF THRUST! » shouted Yun Guanxi.
Yun Guanxi's arm suddenly transformed into a wolf claw and was aiming at Yun Chen's heart. Yun Chen effortlessly dodged it.
«What? How can you see through my move? » asked the surprised Yun Guanxi.
«It is not that difficult! You are just too slow. » Yun Chen mocked him.
«Tch! Since that is the case, I don't need to hold back. I will use all I have to kill you. WOLF KING TRAMPLE THE MOUNTAIN! » Yun Guanxi shouted.
After shooting that, a giant wolf paw formed in the sky over Yun Chen. Even if Yun Chen wanted to run, it would be impossible to escape this paw. Even the great elder and the second elder were forced to kneel due to the pressure, but Yun Chen was surprisingly standing firmly with a smile.
« Yun Guanxi, you fell for my trap! » Yun Chen declared before making some fast hand signs.
«HEAVEN AND EARTH REFINING ARRAY! Activate! » Yun Chen shouted after finishing the hand signs.
At that moment, two array circles appeared; one the ground around the patriarch Yun Guanxi and another in the sky above that giant paw. And from each circle, dozens of golden chains came out to bind that wolf paw and Yun Guanxi.
«I was already prepared to fight you even before going to the secret realm. I prepared this array the morning before departing. You won't be able to escape. The heaven and earth refining array can refine your body and soul for my use. You dared to kill my father before and this time, you wanted to kill me using your son. You must pay the price for your sin. Refine! » Yun Chen shouted before making another strange hand sign.
«Wha…what is..this? Yun Chen, how dare…. you try to kill me… » said Yun Guanxi before disintegrating.
Moreover, the qi contained inside that wolf paw was absorbed by the golden chains and was being transferred to Yun Chen. Soon after, Yun Chen broke through to fifth layer of spirit-gathering realm and his energy was still rising without slowing down. Elder Bao who was spectating showed a worried face.
«This is bad! He was only at the fourth layer of spirit-gathering realm, but he killed a fourth layer innate realm master. If he is permitted to become stronger, I won't be his opponent. I must kill him before that happen. Right now, he is in a middle of a breakthrough process and if he is interrupted, he will surely receive a backlash. At that moment, it would be easy to kill him. This is my best opportunity! » elder Bao thought to himself
«Yun Chen, you even dared to kill your patriarch! Today, I will uphold justice by killing you! Die! » elder Bao shouted before rushing toward Yun Chen.
«Who dare to kill my disciple relative? » a loud feminine voice resounded in the sky.
When that voice spoke, all the disciple in the mansion fainted. A kind of light shield formed behind Yun Chen blocking the attack from elder Bao.
«This… » elder Bao unconsciously said.
He didn't hesitate for even one second and fled. He instinctively knew that he couldn't fight that existence. At that moment, a discrete smile appeared on Yun Chen's face. He continued his breakthrough and finally stopped at the seventh layer of the spirit-gathering realm. In addition, he also absorbed Yun Guanxi's soul power and his own soul power also broke through. His soul power is now equivalent to a master at the first layer of the transformation realm.
«If it wasn't for that person, I could have used this elder to upgrade my daggers. What a pity! » Yun Chen was saying to himself.
Yun Chen already knew that the elder would try to attack him, so he had already prepared his daggers for a stealth attack.
«Oh? So, you were aware of his intentions! Interesting! » an elegant voice said from the other side of the main courtyard.
The owner of that voice was a beautiful woman and behind her were Su Ling and elder Kong. At this sight, Yun Chen was very confused.
