Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Staring at Xuan Songx’s back, the corners of Ye Wushuang’s lips curled into a cold smirk.

In the next instant, he vanished. The Ancient Sword shot through the air, the crisp sound of its passage growing ever clearer to Xuan Songx.

Xuan Songx was still plotting how to kill Ye Wushuang in the Earth Palace when a sudden chill ran down his spine. The specter of death loomed over him.

He whipped his head around, just in time to see a sharp Sword Light magnifying in his pupils!

”Ye Wushuang, what do you think you’re doing?”

A terrified roar escaped Xuan Songx’s lips, a purely instinctual reaction.

They had already sacrificed Yinn Su to appease Ye Wushuang’s wrath. He never imagined Ye Wushuang would still come for his life.

Liuu Yifei and the other disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect also whipped their heads around.

”Ye Wushuang, we let you kill one of ours! What more do you want? Don’t push your luck!”

Watching Ye Wushuang charge toward them, Liuu Yifei’s expression darkened. Waves of killing intent erupted from his eyes, chilling the very air.

”Are you deaf? I said ’them.’ You’ve only given me one!” Ye Wushuang said coolly, accelerating as his Life-Taking Sword descended upon Xuan Songx.

He wanted both Xuan Songx and Yinn Su dead.

Only one had died. There was no way he would let the other one go.

”Bastard!”

Liuu Yifei roared in fury, drawing his longsword and lunging forward in an instant. A series of terrifying sword glimmers descended upon Ye Wushuang.

”Get lost!”

Ye Wushuang’s heart was cold as iron. The Dragon Blood Battle Saber appeared in his other hand. He swung it in a horizontal slash as a dragon’s roar echoed.

His eighty-one Qi Vortexes trembled wildly. True Essence, as vast as an ocean, surged into the blade. Empowered by his Invincible Saber Intent, he cleaved the air, unleashing a massive, blood-red saber beam that shot toward Liuu Yifei.

The Saber Intent was sharp and domineering, pervading the world with an indomitable aura.

BOOM!

The blood-red saber beam collided with the series of sword glimmers.

BANG!

BANG!

The crimson light of the saber beam shot out in all directions, overpowering the glow of the sword glimmers. With crushing force, it annihilated them, producing a series of metallic CLANGS.

The energy in the void began to boil, like the Milky Way of the Nine Heavens pouring down, spreading from the epicenter out toward the edges of the dense forest.

As he watched the blood-red saber beam shatter his sword glimmers and continue hurtling toward him, Liuu Yifei felt an actual sense of danger, which he found unbelievable.

’A True Essence Third Layer cultivator is a threat to me, someone at the True Essence Eighth Layer? How laughable.’

Immediately, he gripped the hilt with both hands. With a sudden thrust of his palms, he pushed the Ancient Sword forward three inches, and it instantly multiplied into countless beams of Sword Light.

These beams of Sword Light surged toward the blood-red saber beam, one after another.

BANG! BANG! BANG! They bombarded the saber beam relentlessly, a seemingly endless assault.

”Die!”

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Wushuang’s Life-Taking Sword struck at Xuan Songx.

Xuan Songx wasn’t about to be executed so easily. He raised his Ancient Sword and swept out a wave of frosty Sword Light.

BOOM!

But Ye Wushuang’s figure vanished in an instant.

In the next moment, an Ancient Sword pierced through Xuan Songx’s chest from behind, its blood-stained tip dripping onto the ground.

”Trash!”

A cold voice suddenly spoke from behind Xuan Songx.

Instantly, Xuan Songx was filled with regret.

He knew Ye Wushuang possessed the Hidden Killing Technique, and he had the means to defend against it.

But at the critical moment, he had been so focused on killing Ye Wushuang that he forgot to freeze the space around him.

”Ye Wushuang, die!”

Seeing this, the other young disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect immediately turned, ready to attack Ye Wushuang.

But Liuu Yifei stopped them.

”Go!”

Liuu Yifei shouted coldly, batting back the disciples who were rushing forward. He then led them in a retreat toward the perimeter.

It wasn’t that he was incapable of killing Ye Wushuang. It was because of his status—his status as a Priest!

Earlier, everyone had likely been too stunned by Pann Wu’s massive palm to notice the word ”Priest” spoken by the Dragon Cat.

That word had clearly been directed at Ye Wushuang.

It meant Ye Wushuang was the Priest of the Giant Spirit Clan. If they dared to touch him, the Giant Spirit Clan would likely annihilate not only them, but the entire Celestial Sword Sect as well.

That was what he truly feared.

’Damn bastard. So what if you’re a Priest? Once we’re in the Earth Palace, you’ll be nothing but an ant. I’ll make sure you never come out alive.’

Liuu Yifei thought coldly. ’Ye Wushuang must die!’

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

The group fled with astonishing speed.

”Hmph!”

A cold glint flashed in Ye Wushuang’s eyes. If he were strong enough, he would have made sure none of them left here alive today.

Retracting his gaze, he glanced down and saw a crowd of people staring up at him, their mouths agape in a daze.

From the moment Ye Wushuang attacked to the instant he killed Xuan Songx and Liuu Yifei fled, everything had happened so fast it was beyond their wildest expectations.

Ye Wushuang paused, then a smile spread across his face as he spotted a few familiar figures below.

’It’s them!’

Ye Wushuang descended from the sky in a single step.

Pann Wu also began walking toward Ye Wushuang.

The earth-shaking tremors caused by his steps, however, made the others tremble.

”So it was you all!”

Ye Wushuang walked over to the group from the Yunlan Ancient Teachings. It was none other than Yuann Qingmeng, Yunn Dong, and Leng Hex.

All three of them had grown much stronger, having broken through to the True Essence Sixth Layer.

Of course, the young girl from before was also standing beside them.

”Brother Ye.”

Yuann Qingmeng smiled with delight. She retracted her Spirit Ring and walked over to Ye Wushuang.

”Miss Qingmeng, we meet again,” Ye Wushuang said with a smile. He knew perfectly well that she was the one who had blocked Yuh Tian’s attack for him earlier.

”Brother Ye, it has been a long time,” Yuann Qingmeng replied, also smiling.

”Yes, it has been a while. We’ve missed you, Brother Ye,” Yunn Dong added with a grin, his words carrying a playful undertone.

Hearing this, Yuann Qingmeng’s face flushed red. She shot back, ”Yunn Dong, what nonsense are you spouting? Who said I missed him?”

But she immediately realized the implication of her own words, and her blush deepened, spreading all the way to her neck.

”Junior Sister Qingmeng, I didn’t say a thing. You’re the one who just admitted it,” Yunn Dong said, giving her an innocent look.

He then turned and shot Ye Wushuang a knowing wink.

Anyone could understand the meaning behind his exaggerated expression.

Ye Wushuang paused for a second, then a roguish grin spread across his face.

’Don’t tell me she fell for me after I played the hero and saved the damsel in distress!’ He rubbed his nose, a narcissistic thought crossing his mind. He was about to say something when Zhao Feiyu walked up.

”So you’re the Ye Wushuang that Junior Sister Qingmeng is always talking about. You’re truly as remarkable as she says,” Zhao Feiyu said as he approached. The phrase ”always talking about” made Yuann Qingmeng lower her head in embarrassment.

HAHAHA!

Yunn Dong immediately burst out laughing.

Realizing what he’d done, Zhao Feiyu started laughing too. The two of them didn’t stop until a mortified Yuann Qingmeng had run off.

”Thank you for your help earlier, Brother Zhao,” Ye Wushuang said, cupping his fist.

Zhao Feiyu smiled. ”Don’t mention it, Brother Ye. You’re friends with Junior Sister Qingmeng and the others, which naturally makes you a friend of mine, Zhao Feiyu, as well.”

Ye Wushuang smiled and nodded in return.

’Zhao Feiyu seems like a decent guy. He’s worth befriending.’

”Coward!”

As he was talking with Zhao Feiyu, Leng Hex and the young girl approached.

The word ”Coward,” of course, came from the young girl.

”I forgot to introduce you.”

Seeing the girl step forward, Yunn Dong quickly said, ”This is Lingg Shan, my junior sister.”

”Miss Lingg Shan,” Ye Wushuang said in greeting.

At the same time, Lingg Shan stepped forward and asked curiously, ”Coward, you have to tell me, how did you know Yinn Su had malicious intentions?”
