Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Before the crowd’s very eyes, the terrifying canopy of purple light began to crumble, its Sword Intent dissipating into nothingness!

The crowd was stunned. It had been an ultimate sword strike, one of immense power, yet it was no match for the minuscule Life-Taking Sword. The Life-Taking Light tore through everything, showing Cai Xu what true ultimate power was!

"How is this possible!"

But the most priceless expression belonged to Cai Lun, who was watching from outside the cavern.

The arrogance on his face, that proud smile, instantly froze. He was rendered speechless.

Just a moment ago, he had arrogantly declared that the Governor’s Mansion’s Purple Sky Kill was the ultimate sword technique, the very move that would slay Ye Wushuang.

Yet in the blink of an eye, Ye Wushuang’s casual strike had shattered it, turning this "ultimate sword technique" into a complete joke.

Rage and killing intent surged within Cai Lun. He could feel the strange looks from those around him, and his face burned with humiliation.

Cai Xu was in the same state. The smug look on his face had frozen solid. That minuscule Life-Taking Light had shattered his ultimate technique, the Purple Sky Kill!

"You’re nothing but a pathetic frog in a well."

The faint words still echoed in his ears. Cai Xu’s expression was grim; he felt the sting of irony, a mockery of his own arrogance.

"Kill!"

The low command escaped Ye Wushuang’s lips. Unimpeded, the Life-Taking Sword shot through the void, piercing toward Cai Xu with incredible speed and an even sharper edge.

Cai Xu’s body stiffened. The Life-Taking Sword Intent displaced his own ferocious aura, steadily eroding his confidence. The Life-Taking Light magnified in his pupils, and the specter of death loomed over his heart.

"Seventh Young Master Di, aren’t you going to make a move?"

Cai Xu was terrified. After that single strike, his confidence had been annihilated by the Life-Taking Sword Intent. He cried out to Seventh Young Master Di and his two companions.

Seventh Young Master Di and his men sprang into action.

Ye Wushuang’s attack had made them realize he actually possessed some real strength.

The Seven Kills Fist shot out, aimed at Ye Wushuang’s back. Layer upon layer of Fist Seals, like mountain imprints, descended upon him in a dense barrage.

It wasn’t just Seventh Young Master Di; Fifth Young Master Di and Sixth Young Master Di also struck at the same instant. Their objective was singular: to kill Ye Wushuang.

"You wanted to play, but you can’t handle the stakes. It seems you’re just another piece of trash who’s all talk."

Hearing Cai Xu’s cry for help, Ye Wushuang let out a mocking sneer. His sharp words drilled into Cai Xu’s heart like a dagger, leaving him speechless.

WHOOSH!

As his voice faded, Ye Wushuang’s figure vanished without a trace.

The expressions of Cai Xu and the three young masters of the Di Family darkened. Ye Wushuang had vanished into thin air.

Even the three assassins—Blood Hatred, Blood Kill, and Xie Li—could not detect Ye Wushuang’s presence. The disappearance was so sudden it was as if Ye Wushuang were the true assassin.

Only Mengyun Wulei understood. ’This is one of Ye Wushuang’s techniques,’ she thought. ’A terrifying killing move he honed in the darkness!’

’Retreat!’

Cai Xu couldn’t figure out where he went, but he wasn’t a fool. He slashed his Treasure Sword through the empty air around him, a ferocious Sword Qi spreading out to form a tight defense.

BOOM!

Seizing the chance, he retreated, putting dozens of yards between them in an instant.

The Killing Fists of Seventh, Fifth, and Sixth Young Master Di also slammed into empty space, shattering a patch of the void.

"Ye Wushuang, you can’t escape," Seventh Young Master Di sneered. He threw a punch, and the space before him rippled, twisting and compressing. The terrifying Fist Force, like an Unparalleled Divine Saber, tore startling gashes into the air above the grand plaza."

This single punch was a terrifying display of his true power.

The crowd watching from the edge of the plaza was aghast. The might of that one punch nearly rivaled an attack from a Yin Yang Realm expert!

Seventh Young Master Di truly lived up to his name as the number one genius of the Di Family.

Such power surpassed the Spiritual Spring Realm; even experts of the Yin Yang Realm could not afford to underestimate it. Perhaps in the hearts of the crowd, Seventh Young Master Di was already the foremost genius in Nanyang City.

It made them feel utterly powerless by comparison.

Ye Wushuang’s figure reappeared in midair. He looked down on their frantic, flailing attacks. ’How ridiculous!’

"Cai Xu, Fifth Young Master, Sixth Young Master, you pin him down! Don’t let him escape. I will be the one to take his head."

Seventh Young Master Di shouted to the other three. The four of them would surround and kill Ye Wushuang together.

BOOM!

A cold glint appeared on the cruel faces of Xie Li, Blood Kill, and Blood Hatred. They were about to step forward and seize the opportunity to kill Ye Wushuang.

However, Mengyun Wulei stepped in front of them, blocking their path. "If you don’t want to die," she warned, "do not get involved!"

If you don’t want to die, do not get involved!

The three assassins’ eyes narrowed as they stared at Mengyun Wulei.

"We are avenging you!" Xie Li said to Mengyun Wulei, enunciating each word. Their reason for acting was to help her get revenge.

"’But our objective isn’t to kill him,’ Mengyun Wulei said, her icy gaze fixed on Ye Wushuang. ’That lecherous scoundrel might be a rogue, but his methods are terrifying. He’s cold-blooded and utterly ruthless. He’ll kill without a second thought.’"

"’Ye Wushuang even dared to make a move on me right in front of the Blood Feather Tower Master—my own father. One can only imagine the consequences if you three provoke him. It would be unthinkable.’"

However, she didn’t explain this to them directly, choosing instead to stop them in her own way.

Outside, Di Qiong and Cai Lun watched intently as the four joined forces. Cai Lun in particular, having been humiliated by Ye Wushuang’s sword, was radiating intense killing intent.

At the same time, Menn Qi’s brow furrowed. He was well aware of Seventh Young Master Di’s power. Like Ye Wushuang, he was a true genius capable of contending with Yin Yang Realm experts.

Now, with the addition of Fifth Young Master Di, Sixth Young Master Di, and Cai Xu, the situation was indeed critical.

And it wasn’t just those four. Some of the other young cultivators in the crowd were also itching to make a move, likely waiting for both sides to wear each other down.

Even if the four managed to kill Ye Wushuang, they would surely pay a price. For the onlookers hoping to seize the treasures, this was a highly favorable outcome.

Thus, they held back, content to wait and see how things developed.

BOOM!

The four surrounded Ye Wushuang. Fifth Young Master Di said coldly, "Let’s see you escape this time!"

"Escape?"

Ye Wushuang’s eyes narrowed, and he laughed inwardly. ’From the very beginning, I never once thought about escaping. I wonder how Fifth Young Master Di came to the conclusion that I wanted to run.’

"Perhaps today’s outcome was sealed the moment you killed the first member of my Di Family. You are the number one talent of your generation in the Endless Wilderness."

Fifth Young Master Di’s gaze sharpened as his tone shifted abruptly. "But you are too arrogant, too conceited. You look down on everyone. You think that just because you have some power in the Endless Wilderness, you’re invincible. That arrogance led you to kill members of my Di Family time and again. Now, we will make you understand that you are the real frog in a well."

"A frog in a well?"

Ye Wushuang listened, his eyes fixed on Fifth Young Master Di. He suddenly interjected, "Are you done with your pointless speech?"

Hearing this, Fifth Young Master Di’s gaze hardened. Staring at Ye Wushuang, he said coldly, "You still intend to resist?"

"No, you’re mistaken," Ye Wushuang denied. This was just as Fifth Young Master Di expected. Surrounded by the four of them, Ye Wushuang had no chance of escaping death.

However, just as they were all thinking this, Ye Wushuang spoke again. "Your speech is over. In that case... I can take your life now!"
