Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

In the sky, the Xiaoo Yue Demon King stared at Ye Wushuang, his gaze so sharp it made one’s hair stand on end!

Ye Wushuang stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression unchanged. Instead, a faint smile touched his lips.

"I thought you would hide in your shell!"

The Xiaoo Yue Demon King said coldly, "You’re just a wet-behind-the-ears brat. I really don’t know where you get the audacity to claim you can make me submit!"

"You will," Ye Wushuang said lightly. ’Just as I thought, this "Demon King" before me isn’t a true Demon King, but a Ninth-Level Demon Beast, comparable to the Peak of the Spiritual Spring Ninth Layer. Its power is indeed formidable!’

Of course, Ye Wushuang was no longer the person he was before. The Spiritual Spring Ninth Layer was no longer a threat to him.

However, there was one thing that puzzled him.

’Normally, a Demon Beast must reach the Demon King Realm to take human form, yet this fake "Demon King" before me clearly hasn’t.’

’Yet, it can transform into a human. How strange!’

’Could it be...?’

Ye Wushuang suddenly thought of a possibility. ’Aside from reaching the Demon King Level, there’s another way: inheriting the bloodline of a High-Tier Demon Beast allows for an early transformation.’

"Brat, I’ll make you understand the price of angering me."

Slightly angered, the Xiaoo Yue Demon King charged forward. His body unfurled, and in an instant, he transformed into a Great Peng several hundred feet long.

This was a Silver-Winged Roc. With a wingspan stretching hundreds of feet, it blotted out the sky. A strange silver light flowed across its body, giving it a majestic appearance!

RUMBLE!

With a flap of its silver wings, a terrifying aura spread downward, pressing upon the city’s inhabitants. Their legs trembled as they shivered uncontrollably.

"Th-this is the Xiaoo Yue Demon King?!"

"This aura... it’s horrifying!"

Terrified, everyone retreated again and again. Only now had they truly witnessed the Demon King’s true form and power. Its aura alone was suffocating!

"Miss Lan, run! Don’t get dragged down with that young man!"

"That’s right, there’s still time to get away!"

Seeing Lan Xinyu still standing in front of the restaurant, the crowd shouted out, unable to bear the thought of their goddess dying just like that.

"Why should she leave? A supposedly respectable woman, kneeling in public and begging to be taken as a maid. She has no shame! She’s a disgrace to all women!"

"Right! It would be better if she just died!"

Some of the women in the crowd, however, started to sneer.

Lan Xinyu stood quietly, holding a pot of wine. Beside her, a cup was already filled to the brim!

She didn’t bother to refute the humiliating taunts from the other women. Instead, she just gazed up at the sky.

Her admirable face showed not a single trace of fear.

This was because the white-robed figure in the sky remained utterly composed and serene, his expression unchanged.

His calm and collected demeanor instilled a powerful confidence in her heart!

The sky-blotting Great Peng spoke in human language, its eyes glinting with a sharp, demonic light. "Your vital blood essence is rich. Devouring you will be a great help in my transformation into a true Demon King!"

KILL!

Its silver wings unfurled, churning the wind and clouds. It descended like an enveloping Black Cloud, casting an immense shadow across the land.

Two powerful silver tempests erupted from its wings, converging on Ye Wushuang from both sides in a pincer attack. The sheer killing power was horrifying!

On the ground, numerous objects were swept into the sky, only to be annihilated in an instant!

’So it’s a Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc!’

Ye Wushuang’s eyes narrowed. "As it happens, I’m in need of a flying mount. You’ll do perfectly!"

The Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc contained a trace of the Golden-Winged Roc’s bloodline in its body. Not only was it fast, but its power was also immense.

The Golden-Winged Roc was a True Spirit Divine Beast from before Ancient Times. The power of its bloodline was naturally terrifying; even a single trace was enough to allow a Demon Beast to take human form.

RUMBLE!

As he finished speaking, Ye Wushuang stepped forward and charged toward the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc!

SUPPRESS!

Uttering a single word, he brought an Immortal Dragon Mountain crashing down. It shone with a brilliant golden light, like an ancient star falling from the heavens, and instantly suppressed the two silver tempests!

BOOM!

Ye Wushuang strode through the storms, his black hair whipping about elegantly!

"Submit, and I will spare your life!"

The cold words left his lips slowly as Ye Wushuang appeared before the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc. He moved so fast that the people below couldn’t even track his movement.

’His speed... it’s incredible!’

The pupils of the onlookers below constricted. It was as if he could shrink the very earth, moving so fast they couldn’t even glimpse his shadow.

"You want to compete with me in speed? You’re not even in the same league!"

However, the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc was disdainful. With a single flap of its silver wings, it shot back a thousand meters in an instant.

Ye Wushuang’s eyes narrowed, and his smile grew even brighter!

"KILL!"

The Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc roared in fury. Its silver wings unleashed streams of silver light that pierced the void, hurtling toward Ye Wushuang with lethal intent.

They blotted out the sky, descending like a meteor shower and leaving Ye Wushuang with no room to escape!

ANNIHILATE!

Ye Wushuang didn’t stop. Instead, he charged right into the attack as a terrifying saber’s edge materialized from his very being.

An invincible Saber Intent swept forth, pressing onward and taking physical form!

BANG! BANG! BANG!

In the void, the Saber Intent clashed relentlessly with the silver light, setting off a continuous chain of explosions.

Seizing the opportunity, the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc’s body flashed, unleashing a silver pillar of light that shot rapidly toward Ye Wushuang.

The surrounding streams of silver light were instantly absorbed into the pillar, making it even more powerful.

Even more shocking was the speed of the silver pillar; it was so fast that Ye Wushuang seemingly had no way to escape!

The Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc also dove from the sky, its silver wings like a host of sharp Divine Swords, tearing through the void as they enveloped Ye Wushuang, intending to shred him to pieces.

"Brat, just lie down and become my next meal!"

The Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc cackled. By devouring Ye Wushuang, it would be one step closer to becoming a Demon King. Once it reached that Realm, it would be a true powerhouse in its own right.

"Die! Just die already!"

Zheng Ke cursed sinisterly, wishing he could tear Ye Wushuang limb from limb before he died to avenge his severed arm.

Lan Xinyu’s eyes were also fixed on the scene. Faced with such a terrifying attack from the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc, even she began to lose her confidence.

WORLD DESTRUCTION!

As two faint words left his lips, Ye Wushuang drew his Dragon Blood Battle Saber and slashed it through the air. A blood-red canopy unfurled across the sky.

The vision of the crowd was enveloped in a sea of red.

The terrifying Saber Intent made them tremble to their very souls. This single slash plunged them into despair!

’What a terrifying slash!’

The crowd stared, fixated, as they suddenly realized just how terrifying the young man in white truly was.

BOOM!

That terrifying silver pillar of light was torn in two!

"KILL! KILL! KILL!"

The Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc was startled for a moment before roaring again. It unleashed an endless torrent of silver light from its body, frantically bombarding the blood-red canopy.

That blood-red canopy was composed entirely of terrifying blades of light.

How could its insignificant attacks possibly stand a chance against it?

The terrifying curtain of saber light devoured everything in its path!

’How is this possible? I can’t even block one of his attacks! That bastard, City Lord Zheng... Why did he tell me I was stronger than him?!’

Staring at the peerless saber light, the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc felt the aura of death wash over it. Filled with terror, it flapped its wings and tried to flee Black Stone City, cursing City Lord Zheng all the while.

The crowd was left dumbfounded as they watched the Demon King flee for its life!
