Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

The entire Dueling Arena fell into a state of silence.

At that moment, nothing was more shocking or astonishing than a Spiritual Spring Realm cultivator obliterating the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, which ranked fourth on the prison-duel list!

A killer that had fought in eighty-one duels, reaped the lives of eighty-one Yin Yang Realm experts, and never known defeat, had today been cleaved in two by Ye Wushuang, a mere Spiritual Spring Realm cultivator.

The young figure standing in the arena was a source of immense surprise and shock to everyone present!

"Impossible! How... how could he kill the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard!"

Zong Min shook her head in disbelief. She had a clear grasp of Ye Wushuang’s strength before, and it wasn’t this formidable. How long had it been? And now he’d actually slain the notoriously ferocious Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard!

Even with the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s Illusion Spirit Power, it couldn’t evade his sword. How did he do it?

Zong Min couldn’t figure it out, and neither could anyone else.

However, what they didn’t know was that Ye Wushuang possessed the Tai Chi Eye, which could see through all things illusory. He could easily break not only the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s Illusion Spirit Power, but even the powerful Illusion Techniques of the Illusion Race.

Once he could see through to the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s true form, his Heavenly Sword Technique had its target. And who could possibly stand against such powerful Sword Dao Slaughter!

Ye Wushuang remained standing in mid-air, an Ancient Sword in hand. Its cold glint was pristine, unstained by a single drop of blood, which only made it all the more terrifying.

His eyes were fixed on the black-robed elder, his gaze radiating a chilling intent!

The black-robed elder’s pupils contracted, and his heart trembled violently. He had thought that sending out the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard would be enough to kill Ye Wushuang.

He never expected it would be slain by him instead!

Ye Wushuang’s figure finally moved. Sword in hand, he walked toward the black-robed elder.

"In a life-or-death prison duel, fate decides who lives and who dies. If it were a fair fight and I died, I would have no regrets. But you, as the referee, the arbiter of the Rules, have violated those very Rules."

Ye Wushuang descended through the air as the indifferent words left his lips. Every syllable was ice-cold.

The black-robed elder’s eyes narrowed. "The Dueling Arena is Zong Family territory," he said indifferently. "The Rules are also decided by my Zong Family. What’s wrong with me acting as I did?"

This was the Zong Family’s territory; they called all the shots. In their mouths, the Rules were whatever they said they were. Who could possibly object?

"Therefore, this prison duel ends here!"

The black-robed elder shouted coldly, delivering his verdict on the match. The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard had been raised by the Dueling Arena at great expense. For Ye Wushuang to kill it with a single strike was a massive loss for them!

The black-robed elder’s heart was bleeding. He desperately wanted to kill Ye Wushuang right then and there.

However, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he couldn’t be too obvious about it.

"’Ends here?’ You’re ridiculous. In a life-or-death prison duel, only one person leaves alive. That is the Rule, and it has always been the Rule. Since the Rule is set, even your Zong Family must abide by it!"

Ye Wushuang sneered. ’If I had been the weaker one today, would this duel still have ended with the words "ends here"? Absolutely not!’

’Back then, I would have undoubtedly been reduced to a pile of bones. And now, he wants *me* to just let it end here? Is that even possible?’

Hearing Ye Wushuang’s words, the hearts of the crowd trembled. In front of him, even the Zong Family had to abide by the rules they themselves had set. How arrogant! How proud!

"You’re pushing your luck!"

The black-robed elder’s gaze turned cold, and his killing intent flared.

"From the beginning, it was Zong Ming who provoked me, demanding a life-or-death prison duel to take my life. When he was on the verge of defeat, just as the battle was about to end, you interfered. You broke the Rules, stopping a fight that should have been over. Then you released the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, trying to kill me yet again. Tell me, am I the one pushing my luck, or are you the one being relentlessly aggressive?"

As he spoke, Ye Wushuang walked up to the black-robed elder and said coldly, "This prison duel was initiated by your Zong Family. Since it has begun, it must continue. Since that coward Zong Ming doesn’t dare to fight, then you will fight instead. You are a member of the Zong Family. If you fight, I will accept your challenge all the same!"

Ye Wushuang’s sword pointed at the black-robed elder, its edge gleaming. He was challenging this black-robed elder, a Yang Destruction Level expert!

"He’s insane!"

Upon hearing Ye Wushuang’s challenge, the crowd’s eyes twitched. A Spiritual Spring Realm cultivator wanted to fight a Yang Destruction Level expert. This was absolute madness! A lunatic!

"Hehe, this guy is really going at it with the Zong Family. It would be best if he tears this whole place down. A place that makes so many Spirit Stones, and it doesn’t belong to me... it makes my hands itch just looking at it. Tear it down! He must tear it down!"

Dongfang Youdi chuckled, his Tao Hua eyes narrowing as he scanned his surroundings with a look of pure envy.

"Hmph. If he wants to tear down my Zong Family’s place, he’ll have to survive against one of my family’s experts first. But facing a Yang Destruction Level expert, can he even stay alive?!"

Hearing Dongfang Youdi’s words, Zong Min retorted with a cold sneer.

"Little brat, if he can’t tear it down, believe me, I will. Hehe, and I’ll take care of you while I’m at it."

Dongfang Youdi’s Tao Hua eyes roved up and down Zong Min’s body. He cracked his knuckles and flashed a lecherous grin, causing Zong Min to flinch and take a few steps back.

"Forget it. A flat-chested piece of work like you doesn’t interest me in the slightest. I’d have a better time finding a girl at Cuiyun Tower!"

Seeing Zong Min’s wary expression, Dongfang Youdi picked his ear and tossed out the comment, enraging her so much her face began to contort.

Dongfang Youdi had compared her to those filthy women of Cuiyun Tower, and even said she was worse than them. This was the greatest humiliation she had ever suffered!

"Don’t get mad. Just watch the show below. If you die of anger, you’ll miss the final result."

Dongfang Youdi’s relentless teasing made Zong Min want to spit up blood from rage.

Nearby, Zhuang Hao remained silent. ’Ye Wushuang is challenging the Dueling Arena’s prison-duel referee... where does he get this confidence?’

He knew that the black-robed elder was countless times stronger than the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard. A head-on clash like this was undoubtedly a suicide mission!

"You wish to have a prison duel with me?"

The black-robed elder was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he stared at Ye Wushuang and began to sneer. ’This is the opportunity I’ve been waiting for.’

"Zong Ming is a coward, hiding back there, not daring to accept the challenge. Are all the people of the Zong Family such cowards? Can none of you even utter the word ’fight’?" Ye Wushuang retorted.

"You..."

Zong Ming, who had just walked out of the duel, froze. He turned to look at Ye Wushuang. ’Coward. In Ye Wushuang’s eyes, I am a disgraceful coward!’

’Ye Wushuang... He must be killed! He deserves to die!’

A venomous light bloomed in Zong Ming’s eyes.

But in the instant he paused, countless strange gazes from the stands fell upon him, sharp as a volley of swords piercing through the air.

At this moment, Zong Ming had indeed fled.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Zong Ming clenched his fists violently, his heart bleeding. Those gazes were so sharp, piercing his body again and again, making him feel so ashamed he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

His face burned with shame. He quickened his pace, desperate to escape the crowd’s line of sight!

"Since you’re looking to die, I will grant you your wish. I shall fight the remainder of this prison duel," the black-robed elder said, a cold light flashing in his eyes. ’Ye Wushuang has humiliated the Zong Family. Only his blood can wash away this disgrace!’

"It seems that in the Zong Family, only the old ones have the courage to fight."

As Ye Wushuang spoke, his Ancient Sword shot out in an instant. This black-robed elder had been trying to kill him from the start. This battle was unavoidable!
