Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Ye Fan vs.

Jiang Chen: The Endgame Chapter 103: Ye Fan vs.

Jiang Chen: The Endgame In the heart of the battlefield, the very air quivered as Ye Fan’s long saber, infused with unmatched power, collided fiercely with Jiang Chen’s longsword.

Clang!

The clash of metal echoed, dispersing waves of force everywhere.

Ye Fan, his voice laced with scorn and frenzy, couldn’t resist mocking his opponent, “I relish knocking down arrogant jerks like you who are too full of themselves!” He always took pleasure in cutting down those who walked around with unwarranted pride, and today, he was convinced, would be no different.

In his imagination, Ye Fan had already seen the endgame.

Jiang Chen, defeated by the ruthless strike of his saber, dropping his longsword, his defense obliterated.

The following instant, his body would be split in half.

This scenario was so clear, so close at hand, that a smirk spread across Ye Fan’s face, almost letting him savor the taste of victory.

But reality took a different turn.

When Ye Fan’s long saber and Jiang Chen’s longsword met, an unexpected and dramatic shift happened-a twist in their duel that Ye Fan hadn’t anticipated.

At first, the pushback from Jiang Chen’s longsword seemed weak.

Yet, in a moment, this pushback changed, escalating from what seemed like a faint hint of resistance to a raging storm of strength.

For a brief moment, time appeared to freeze.

Then, almost immediately, a thunderous noise reverberated across the battlefield.

Boom!

A vast aura burst forth from Jiang Chen, an aura so grand and deep it could only be associated with the mythical Heavenly Origin realm.

Simultaneously, a mysterious and unique energy wave radiated outwards, engulfing everything nearby.

It was an experience neither Ye Fan nor the spectators had ever encountered-an energy so distinctive, it seemed to infuse the very essence of the heavens and the earth.

With a hearty laugh, Jiang Chen retorted, his voice ringing loud and clear, “Hahaha!

You, who look down on the heroes of this world, are the true fool!” Clasping the Shadowblade Sword with both hands, he stood his ground, effectively stopping Ye Fan’s fierce saber attack dead in its tracks.

“How is this possible!” Ye Fan exclaimed, his voice tinged with disbelief and a growing sense of panic.

“How could you possibly have made a breakthrough right now?!” He challenged, his eyes wide and burning with intense fury, reflecting the storm of fear and astonishment that gripped his heart.

His thoughts were in disarray, scattered as if by a strong wind, as the unforeseen twist in events left him utterly stunned, frozen in place.

Ye Fan had thought himself unbeatable, momentarily accessing the combat prowess of the Heavenly Origin realm.

But Jiang Chen-Jiang Chen hadn’t merely tapped into this power; he had ascended, genuinely entering the Heavenly Origin realm.

[Ding!

You have successfully broken protagonist Ye Fan’s mental state, reducing Ye Fan’s Heavenly Fate Value by 300 points!] [Ding!

You have earned 500 points of Villain Value!] As these system alerts resonated within his mind, marking his victory over Ye Fan’s crumbling resolve, Jiang Chen seized the moment Ye Fan was caught off guard.

Capitalizing on this crucial opportunity, he executed his most powerful sword technique yet, the Void Rainbow Eighth Sword Style – Shattering the Clouds.

With rapid and precise motions, he landed sixteen devastating strikes, each one targeting Ye Fan with flawless precision.

Slice!

Slice!

Slice!

Slice!

Within a mere heartbeat, Ye Fan’s form was marked by sixteen deep, severe cuts.

Blood spurted, creating a vivid, stark picture.

“Aagh!!” Ye Fan’s cry of pain cut through the silence as he staggered back, every instinct urging him to escape the battlefield.

Yet, the consequences of his earlier decisions bore down on him heavily.

He had driven his body to its limits, frequently resorting to secret arts to amplify his strength.

Most daringly, he had activated a secret art that temporarily endowed him with the power of the Heavenly Origin realm, despite only being in the Spiritual Awakening realm.

Now, his body was utterly spent, sapped of its energy.

The invincible aura that once enveloped Ye Fan, the unstoppable force he thought he was, had disintegrated.

His spirit, previously unbreakable, now lay in ruins, and his combat strength dropped dramatically, similar to a great mountain crumbling or a cliff eroding under the constant battering of the elements.

“Hold it!

Where do you think you’re going?” Jiang Chen’s voice boomed, slicing through the battlefield’s turmoil as sharply as a sword.

In that moment, he adjusted his stance, signaling the release of his lightness skill, the Clear Sky Flash.

His figure became a blur, leaving behind only an afterimage.

Almost instantly, he appeared right next to Ye Fan!

Ye Fan, aware of the looming danger, tried to evade.

However, his attempts were futile.

His movements, previously quick and confident, had become slow, hindered by his injuries and the exhausting toll of his overuse of power.

Jiang Chen grabbed Ye Fan’s left arm tightly and, with a forceful pull, swung Ye Fan through the air.

Boom!

Ye Fan’s body traced a semi-circular path before slamming into the hard ground, the impact leaving a large crater behind.

But just in time, Ye Fan burst from the rubble of the huge crater.

Overlooking his injuries and the immense odds stacked against him, he made a frantic dash toward the cracked opening in the ceiling of the secret chamber, his determination to flee blazing intensely even as his body faltered.

“Hmph!

Ye Fan, no matter where you run, your end is imminent!” Jiang Chen’s light scoff echoed, his confidence clear.

As he raised his right hand, a storage ring on his palm shimmered in the firelight.

[Ding!

You have successfully seized part of Ye Fan’s opportunities, decreasing Ye Fan’s Heavenly Fate Value by 1,000 points!] [Ding!

You successfully injured the protagonist Ye Fan, temporarily lowering his Heavenly Fate Value by 200 points!] [Ding!

You successfully defeated the protagonist Ye Fan, making him flee, which reduced his Heavenly Fate Value by 200 points!] [Ding!

You have earned 2,500 points of Villain Value!] As these system notifications entered Jiang Chen’s consciousness, the real strategy behind his recent attack on Ye Fan unfolded.

The act of grabbing and hurling Ye Fan was not just a show of physical superiority; it was a deliberate ploy to snatch Ye Fan’s storage ring.

Jiang Chen had keenly watched Ye Fan earlier, specifically when he had securely stored away those precious jade slips, left by the founder of the Cave Heaven Secret Realm.

‘An incredible additional one thousand four hundred points of Heavenly Fate Value!

Combined with the earlier mental assault, that totals exactly seventeen hundred points!

Now, Ye Fan’s Heavenly Fate Value has dropped to less than five hundred eighty-eight, putting him in a position for direct elimination!’ Jiang Chen’s eyes sparkled with both surprise and excitement, his speed surging as he chased!

In a frantic bid for freedom, Ye Fan had already dashed onto the nearby stone bridge-a dead end!

Below, the dark expanse of a pitch-black subterranean river loomed, its end hidden, enveloped in mystery.

Ye Fan found himself at the edge, his escape routes fading as Jiang Chen rapidly approached.

“I’m betting it all!” With a look of grim resolve, Ye Fan took a leap of faith, diving into the dark abyss below, where the murky waters seemed to promise a chance at escape.

Yet, just as he did, Jiang Chen’s cold laugh rang out, filled with chilling certainty.

“Heh, still clinging to hopes of getting away?

Keep dreaming!” Jiang Chen moved with unmatched speed.

Fusing with his longsword, he transformed into a single entity with the blade, creating a dangerously sharp sword-light.

This deadly power sliced through the air with relentless accuracy, aiming for Ye Fan in his descent.

The sword-light hit Ye Fan mid-fall, its power relentless, propelling him dozens of meters before ruthlessly slamming him against a rocky mountainside.

“No!” Ye Fan’s eyes, now reddened with blood, widened in a potent blend of pain and defiance.

Even in his desperate state, caught and suffering, he rallied every ounce of strength for one last stand.

He struggled to access the remnants of Origin Power within him, gathering whatever force he could to push back against his doomed fate.

“Die!” Jiang Chen’s reply was icy, his eyes narrowing sharply as his intent to kill became terrifyingly clear.

Without any delay, he launched a fierce assault.

From his longsword, a fierce surge of Burning World Raging Flames burst forth, engulfing Ye Fan in a deadly embrace.

Boom!

Immediately, Ye Fan was submerged by the inferno, reduced to a mere shadow within the fire.

A scream of unbearable agony pierced the air, a cry so filled with suffering and despair it seemed almost physical.

“Aagh!” he shouted, but his scream was quickly silenced.

The next moment, the once proud and defiant Son of Heavenly Fate was reduced to nothing more than charred husk.

The intense flames had not only destroyed his body but also snuffed out any remaining hope he might have held onto.

“Damn, finally got him!” Jiang Chen exhaled in relief, sensing that Ye Fan showed no signs of life.

Their journey since their initial meeting had been full of careful planning and strategic moves.

Every action and strategy demanded extreme caution, like walking on thin ice.

Now, with Ye Fan killed, Jiang Chen could at last take a moment to breathe, a short break from the constant tension.

Just when he started to unwind, his mind was inundated with a series of system alerts, each notification marking a significant accomplishment and reward for his efforts.
