Chapter 452 - 453: The Price for Being an Enemy
I will take your life!
The calm words were like a death sentence, declaring he would take the life of the Fifth Young Master Di!
CLANG!
As the sound faded, the Life-Taking Sword bloomed and vanished into the void. Ye Wushuang’s figure also disappeared into the void, seizing the initiative!
Die!
The Fifth Young Master Di’s expression turned ugly. Ye Wushuang was being utterly disdainful, speaking of taking his life as if he already held it in his hands.
"BOOM!"
Seven Kills Fist—seven punches became a killing blow, shattering the void. The attack spread out from three directions, while the final direction was obliterated by Cai Xu’s Purple Sky Kill.
Since Ye Wushuang could turn invisible and was skilled in assassination, they would simply destroy all the space around them. They’d see how he could possibly get close!
"You want to kill me? You’re not capable of it!"
The Fifth Young Master Di sneered, scanning the area with his Divine Sense. At the same time, the other three locked down the space around him. The moment Ye Wushuang appeared, their attacks would cover him instantly.
SWOOSH!
Ye Wushuang’s figure emerged once more. The Life-Taking Light suddenly bloomed, but it wasn’t aimed at the Fifth Young Master Di—it was aimed at the Sixth Young Master Di.
"Not good!"
The Sixth Young Master Di’s face fell, and he dodged back.
The other three were also stunned. Ye Wushuang was creating a diversion; his real target was the Sixth Young Master Di!
"What a cunning bastard, that Ye Wushuang!"
The crowd gasped in shock. Ye Wushuang was too cunning. He had announced he would kill the Fifth Young Master Di, but it was just a red herring to confuse the Seventh Young Master Di and the others.
"Damn it!"
Seventh Young Master Di cursed inwardly, infuriated. They were being played by Ye Wushuang.
RUMBLE!
Reacting instantly, the Seventh Young Master Di unleashed his Seven Kills Fist, shattering a patch of the void as it swept forward. The power of the Killing Fist was terrifyingly absolute; he had truly mastered the Seven Kills Profound Meaning, imbuing the Seven Kills Fist with its true power.
A storm of fist shadows enveloped Ye Wushuang. Cai Lun’s sword also changed direction, striking toward him.
Not only that, but the Fifth Young Master Di also took the opportunity to attack Ye Wushuang from behind!
But soon, the expressions of all four men darkened. Ye Wushuang’s figure had vanished!
The figure that had just appeared was gone again. Even the Life-Taking Light was just a residual flicker of Sword Light.
Their attacks tore apart the spot where Ye Wushuang had been standing, but they hadn’t harmed him in the slightest!
Speed!
Extreme speed!
Only Mengyun Wulei understood. Ye Wushuang’s speed was terrifying. It had been honed in that dark stone chamber!
Sure enough, in the next instant, Ye Wushuang’s figure strangely appeared behind the Fifth Young Master Di, like a phantom, or even more like a God of Slaughter. His eyes were utterly cold!
"My target was always you. It’s a pity you were too stupid to see it." Before the Fifth Young Master Di could even turn his head, a voice like that of the grim reaper suddenly echoed in his ear.
SWOOSH!
The Life-Taking Light, moving at an astonishing speed, pierced through the Fifth Young Master Di’s neck. The terrifyingly sharp blade emerged from his throat.
A bloody glint bloomed on the sword’s tip, crimson and sinister. The life-taking aura had reached its peak intensity.
This was the true Life-Taking Sword!
"Who’s the frog in the well now? Who’s the one looking down on others?"
The cold questions echoed across the grand plaza, each one leaving Ye Wushuang’s lips to challenge the Fifth Young Master Di.
The light in the Fifth Young Master Di’s eyes was gradually fading.
"You claimed you wanted to prove yourself, yet you ganged up on me, four against one. Don’t you feel any shame? Don’t you find that ironic?"
Ye Wushuang spoke again. The Sword Light flashed, and blood sprayed out like a thin thread.
With a RUMBLE, a hand suddenly grabbed out. The Fifth Young Master Di’s corpse was seized, drawn into his body, and refined by the Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron!
The crowd’s eyes froze, their hearts trembling. Four against one, and in just a few exchanges, Ye Wushuang had effortlessly killed one of them.
Just as he had said, he had taken the Fifth Young Master Di’s life!
"Damn it! Ye Wushuang, you animal! You deserve to die!"
Outside, Di Qiong was going insane. Of the young masters of the Di Family, Ye Wushuang had killed yet another one. Four dead and one crippled—the Di Family had never suffered such a loss.
"Ye Wushuang, I, the Patriarch, will flog your corpse!"
The hatred in Di Qiong’s eyes was monstrous.
"Patriarch Di, for a patriarch of your generation, you are quite shameless!" Menn Qi snorted, staring coldly at Di Qiong. "From the very beginning, it was your Di Family that sought trouble with Ye Wushuang. Several of them ganged up to kill him. Now that one of them has been killed, who is there to blame?"
"Mongolian Marshal, Ye Wushuang is a Barbarian from the Endless Wilderness who has infiltrated the Grand Emperor Country with unclear intentions. I am simply fulfilling my duty to the Holy Country by executing him."
Di Qiong said coldly, using his "duty to the Holy Country" as a rebuttal to Menn Qi’s words.
Immediately after, his eyes, filled with hatred, locked onto Ye Wushuang’s figure. Even if Ye Wushuang were to die, he would have his corpse flogged to vent his fury!
"Ye Wushuang, the Di Family will not rest until you are dead!"
The First Young Master Di also roared in anger. The Fifth Young Master Di had been killed right before him, the family’s number one genius. This was a disgrace!
"A fight to the death!" Ye Wushuang raised his blood-stained sword and pointed it at the Seventh Young Master Di. "As for your Di Family, I will kill every single one I meet, until none are left!"
A declaration of war!
The crowd’s eyes narrowed. Ye Wushuang was declaring war on the entire Di Family clan. To challenge the whole Di Family by himself—how arrogant!
"If you have the guts, stop hiding and fight me openly!"
The Seventh Young Master Di roared angrily and charged toward Ye Wushuang.
"Several of you ganged up on me, one person. You call that fighting openly?" Ye Wushuang retorted, his words dripping with a sarcasm that everyone could hear.
"But even so, I don’t care. You want an open fight? I’ll give you one!"
Ye Wushuang stated calmly.
As his voice fell, he had already stepped forward. The sharp aura around him began to bloom, like a fine sword being slowly unsheathed.
"Kill!"
Cai Xu’s Purple Sky Kill pierced through the air. Like a purple Celestial God looking down on the world, his vicious sword slashed toward Ye Wushuang.
"Get lost!"
With a furious roar, the Mad Demon Sword swept out. A brilliant flash of sword light spun forth, infused with the Mad Demon Profound Meaning!
RUMBLE!
The Mad Demon Sword: one cannot live without madness. A sublimated strike—how could Cai Xu possibly block it!
RUMBLE!
The sky-full of purple light receded once more. Cai Xu’s figure was sent flying back, his clothes torn to shreds, as he coughed up mouthfuls of blood. A pathetic sight!
"Die! Seven Injuries Fist!"
Seizing the opportunity, the Sixth Young Master Di attacked from the side. The Seven Injuries Fist was formed—a technique that would injure its user by eight hundred to kill the enemy by a thousand. The power of the seven Fist Seals skyrocketed as they layered over one another, blanketing Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang turned to the side. A cold glint flashed as he spat out a single word: "Die!"
The Sword Intent on Ye Wushuang’s body changed once again. A Heaven-Soaring Sword Intent was released!
A single slash, as if to soar through the heavens. The unadorned sword, carrying an invincible will, slashed toward the Sixth Young Master Di!
This sword strike was unrestrained, meant to annihilate all obstacles.
"No!"
Seeing this, the Seventh Young Master Di roared. His fist, which had been aimed at Ye Wushuang, immediately changed course to strike the Heaven-Soaring Sword.
But it was all too late!
The Heaven-Soaring Sword extinguished the Seven Injuries Fist Seals, disintegrating all attacks.
PUFF!
The Sixth Young Master Di’s head flew into the air.
The Sixth Young Master Di was dead!
A jolt went through the hearts of the crowd, making it hard to breathe. ’Is Ye Wushuang really going to kill every member of the Di Family he meets, until the entire clan is exterminated?’
