Chapter 1099 - I'll Send You on Your Way to Hell
A smile appeared on the sect master's face.
"Ha ha ha, this is the Four Stars Sect. We are a great sect with more than ten thousand years of history behind us, so we have huge amounts of resources and assets at our disposal. We will not be brought down even by the greatest of controversies," he said with a smile and looked condescendingly at Spokesperson Li as though the winner had already been decided. "I'm afraid that you'll be disappointed by the outcome of this battle. Don't worry, I swear that your only daughter won't suffer after your death. Instead, I'll make sure that she'll live well," he specifically placed an emphasis on the words 'live well', as though there was a sly innuendo in his word. He tried to use this to dent Spokesperson Li's confidence.
The sect master knew that Spokesperson Li had gone into seclusion because he had been traumatized after the death of his beloved wife and went off the grid with his only daughter. Today, his daughter was his only weakness and now that the Four Stars Sect had an absolute advantage, the sect master started to formulate alternative plans. He wanted to force Spokesperson Li to turn against the Human Race headquarters and join forces with him to attack Ye Qingyu. This would be a huge blow to Ye Qingyu both mentally and physically.
To his surprise, Spokesperson Li merely smiled and his eyes were bright and clear as though he had weathered through all the vicissitudes of life. "Our life and death have already been preordained and the heavens will decide who will emerge victorious today. As the sect master of Four Stars Sect, I'm shocked that you would sink to such methods to threaten me. It is definitely no coincidence that the Four Stars Sect has fallen to such depths today. Don't you feel ashamed listening to yourself?"
Embarrassment flashed past the sect master's face. Then, he quickly shook his head and smiled, "The end justifies our means. What is the point in having so much to say when you're already destined to die today?"
Then, his gaze fell on Ye Qingyu and he smirked, "Kid, you have interfered in our affairs far too many times and you deserve death. Our Quasi-emperor has yet to make his appearance but you've already shown all your cards, so you're destined to lose today. If you surrender to the Four Stars Sect and agree to submit to our command, we might spare you."
Ye Qingyu didn't even look at him.
His gaze never left the elderly Quasi-emperor.
He completely ignored the sect master's words.
"You… ha ha. Very well," The sect master was enraged by his haughty demeanor that bordered on being an insult. His eyes flashed menacingly and due to the martial arts techniques he cultivated, his aura turned violent and sinister.
The Four Stars Holy Girl laughed and glanced at Ye Qingyu as she said, "Don't tell me that you're placing all your hopes on this old man. He can't even save himself now… Brother Ye Qingyu, a wise man would submit to his circumstances, so why must you…"
Before she could finish her sentence—
Ye Qingyu finally looked at the Four Stars Sect's camp.
"None of you have the right to speak to me," he said, enunciating each word clearly.
His demeanour was calm and composed and did not look like he was deliberately trying to be arrogant. Instead, he spoke as though he was naturally looking down on them all and disdain dripped from his voice.
"You…"
"How arrogant of you!"
The sect master and the Four Stars Holy Girl both sputtered with rage.
"He must be courting death."
"That bastard, he's just a lowly peasant from a lower domain."
"Ha ha, I bet he must be extremely frightened right now… and is deliberately putting on an act."
"Our Quasi-emperor should make an appearance now and capture him alive. Then, we should make him experience hell by putting him through all one thousand and one methods of torture at our sect."
The disciples of the Four Stars Sect in their camp were enraged and yelled loudly.
The sect master shook his head and looked at Ye Qingyu as though he was looking at a dead man. He did not attempt to make any further small talk, but turned to face the crowd and said loudly, "Everyone, as you can tell, it is clear who will emerge victorious today. Since you’ve come to watch the spectacle, why don't you show yourselves and tell us which side you will take? Will you stand with us or will you support this madman Ye Qingyu…"
He was forcing the experts from the various forces to make their stand.
"Ha ha ha, if you make the wrong choice today, don't blame us for being ruthless after we're done killing Ye Qingyu and his allies," Kong Wuyu who was one of the Seven Sons chimed in loudly. "Join us and you shall prosper, defy us and you shall die."
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The thousands of elite disciples of the Four Stars Sect roared in unison as they drew their swords.
Their show of strength was very menacing.
It was extremely difficult for the experts of the various forces to try and back out of this situation.
There were many who even regretted their decision to come to watch the spectacle today.
Several experts reluctantly bowed their heads and inched toward the Four Stars Sect’s camp.
Ye Qingyu's side was completely deserted and not a single force nor expert dared to approach them. Everyone kept a safe distance away from them as though they were carriers of a contagious plague. No one wanted to be associated with him.
"Ha ha ha ha ha…" The sect master threw his head back and laughed loudly at this scene.
Ye Qingyu shook his head.
He slowly walked out of the divine temple and stood high in the air.
"Show yourself, the Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect. I know that you're here and I challenge you to a battle today. Let's put an end to our grudges," Ye Qingyu spoke and his words seemed to carry a mysterious power of laws that pervaded the air, causing ripples to spread throughout the void.
Yet, there was no response.
The Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect did not appear.
"Ah ha ha ha, our sect's Quasi-emperor is such a venerable person that he will not let himself be challenged by someone as cocky as yourself…" The sect master chuckled loudly and looked at Ye Qingyu with derision.
Many disciples of the Four Stars Sect also laughed incredulously.

Countless pairs of eyes look at him with pity, contempt, derision, disdain, sympathy and various other emotions.
Ye Qingyu remained unruffled and opened his mouth to speak once more, "Ha ha, as a Quasi-emperor you betrayed your own kind, then you fled like a defeated dog after you were defeated by [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] at the space battle of Capital Sky Peak. Do you lack the courage to even appear before me today?"
Before his voice had died down—
"How dare you speak so impudently?"
An authoritative voice boomed.
Then, it was immediately followed by a terrifyingly oppressive power and a huge divine palm tore through the void and slammed down toward Ye Qingyu as though it was smacking a fly. Almost half the void was shattered by the force of this palm.
That was the Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect.
He was provoked and attacked in his anger.
Ye Qingyu's words had pricked at the greatest insult and embarrassment of his life.
"Ha ha ha ha!" Ye Qingyu laughed loudly. His figure was shrouded by the massive force of the huge palm and he looked like a stalk of grass in the eye of the storm and could be crushed dead at any moment but then, the [Cloud Top Cauldron] suddenly made its appearance and immediately transformed into a huge cauldron that was several thousand meters high. Matchless bright yellow Immortal qi circulated around it and formed a protective cover around him.
Boom!
There was a huge clash of Dao sound and the power of laws sparked everywhere.
The huge cauldron shook violently but remained erect and unshakable.
Ye Qingyu was perfectly unharmed.
"What's wrong? Has your embarrassment turned into anger because my words hit a sore spot?" he asked as he stood in the void, his black hair dancing in the wind. He was like a fiendgod and he exuded such a righteous aura that one could not stare at him in the face and carried himself with such elegance that was impossible to put into words. Then, he continued, "You did all these things despite knowing how shameful it was, so why are you afraid of others mentioning this incident?"
"If you want to court death this much, I'll grant your wish."
A figure appeared in the void. This was a middle-aged man with average features who was dressed in ordinary brown robes, but despite his ordinary appearance, he carried himself with the authority of a king as he emerged from the void – this was the Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect.
The moment he appeared, it was as though the entire universe breathed in unison with him and he captured everyone's attention.
A series of cheers rose from the Four Stars Sect's camp.
Countless disciples of the Four Stars Sect looked at him with fervent reverence.
Quasi-emperors were considered invincible in the absence of a true Martial Emperor, so this middle-aged man in brown robes was revered by the Four Stars Sect as a god.
The Four Stars Holy Girl and the sect master both looked at him with respect as well.
Ye Qingyu was the only one who looked at this man as though he was looking at a wicked criminal. Their eyes met, then he smirked, "Unfortunately, I don't think you'll be able to kill me."
"Do you really think that this cauldron would be able to protect you?" the Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect said and his eyes hardened coldly. "It is merely a divine weapon being wielded by an ant and this is like casting pearls before swine – you will not be able to bring out its fullest potential."
"Oh, really?" Ye Qingyu retorted. "I wonder if you've recovered from the injuries you sustained during the previous battle and how much strength do you have left in you to battle it out today?"
He especially detested this Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect.
In fact, his loathing of this Quasi-emperor was even more intense than his loathing of Quasi-emperor Mushan, Wei Wubing, the ancient Dragon Emperor, and the others.
As a Quasi-emperor of the Human Race, he was strong enough to stem the powers of darkness to become the hero of mankind and could defend his race from the attacks of darkness, yet he had turned his back on everything that was important for his own selfish gains. Why did the heavens allow such a man to even become a Quasi-emperor in the first place?
Those who were blessed with talent and strength but chose to head down the evil path were more detestable than the ordinary people who committed evil crimes.
"Injuries? Do you think that an ant like yourself will be able to understand the might of a Quasi-emperor?" The Quasi-emperor asked and he clearly found Ye Qingyu equally detestable. He said in annoyance, "Let's cut the crap. I'll send you to your death right now."
Then, he raised his hand and punched out in Ye Qingyu's direction.
All martial arts moves and mysterious techniques were useless to a Quasi-emperor and everything would revert to its original simplicity. Any simple move or technique that a Quasi-emperor made contained a power that surpassed all divine skills and mysterious techniques. The moment he sent this punch out, the void immediately twisted.
This was a Quasi-emperor who had thrown all his might behind that attack.
He punched out with an earth-shattering power.
Everyone present at the battlefield could feel the terrifying force from the remnant energy waves circulating all around them and hastily retreated. These waves were so strong that they felt as though they were on the brink of death, so they could imagine what kind of unbelievable pressure Ye Qingyu was facing as he bore the brunt of that attack.
The Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect showed his clear intent to kill through this move.
"This was what I was about to say too," Ye Qingyu's eyes shone brightly with divine splendor and he exerted all his techniques to their limits and instantly attained the [Ninth Limit] which was also the most powerful level of the [Limitless Divine Way].
He had only spoken so much earlier because he was adjusting his condition to reach this level of the [Limitless Divine Way].
"Die!" Ye Qingyu roared.
He used both hands to produce a simple handprint, then he opened his mouth to spit out a Geng Metal Pill. This pill reacted to the handprint and immediately split open. Then, a pair of dazzling flying swords that were forged in the shape of wings charged forward, instantly ripping the skies apart as easily as cutting through butter. It promptly slashed apart the Quasi-emperor's power of laws from his fist will with a hissing sound.
Before the Four Stars Quasi-emperor could react, the pair of flying swords ripped apart the protective force field around him and circled around his neck.
Then, his head fell from his body like a ripe fruit falling from a tree.
