Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

”Ye... Ye Wushuang is back!”

Gazing at the figure behind Lee Tongtian, the crowd was so stunned they could barely process it. They hadn’t even considered the possibility.

”Ye Wushuang is back?” Seeing the crowd’s expressions, Lee Tongtian sneered. The Earth Palace Gate was closed. Not even an expert at the Yin Yang Realm was guaranteed to get out, so how could Ye Wushuang?

He let out a cold laugh and turned his head to look.

However, it would have been better if he hadn’t. The moment he looked, the cold sneer froze on his face, creating a comical expression.

Somehow, Ye Wushuang was now standing behind him, watching him with an amused expression. He had appeared without a sound, so quietly that even with his True Essence Ninth Layer cultivation, Lee Tongtian hadn’t noticed a thing.

”You... When did you get here?” Lee Tongtian’s gaze hardened, and he grew vigilant. His mind was in turmoil. ’How can a man who was supposed to be dead be standing right in front of me?’

”I’ve been here since the first word you spoke,” Ye Wushuang said, looking at Lee Tongtian mockingly. ’To think someone was actually cursing me behind my back.’

Lee Tongtian said in disbelief, ”Impossible. Ye Wushuang is already dead.”

Ye Wushuang said coldly, ”And yet, here I am, standing right in front of you.”

Hearing this, Lee Tongtian stared at Ye Wushuang, his expression turning ugly. A vicious glint appeared in his eyes.

”No, that’s not right. You’re not Ye Wushuang! You must be an imposter!” Lee Tongtian roared. ”This man isn’t Ye Wushuang! He’s a spy trying to infiltrate the Ancient Spirit Sect! Kill him!”

BOOM!

With that roar, the moment his words fell, Lee Tongtian shot upward. He unleashed his True Essence, which surged like a torrential river, sweeping out to envelop Ye Wushuang.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The furious aura overturned the entire pavilion.

The group of people in front of the pavilion turned pale with horror. They had underestimated Lee Tongtian’s strength.

The pale-faced young man was also shaken. He had long heard that Lee Tongtian had a fortunate encounter and that his strength had soared. It seemed the rumors were true.

’This terrifying level of power is more than enough to kill me.’

Thinking of how he had offended Lee Tongtian earlier, the pale-faced youth was filled with regret.

Everyone immediately shot backward, retreating far away, not daring to come within a hundred feet of Lee Tongtian.

”Ye Wushuang, so what if you’re alive? You’re still going to die now! I’ve had my own fortunate encounter and my strength has skyrocketed. I am no longer the Lee Tongtian of the past! I have more than enough power to kill you, so just die for me!”

Lee Tongtian took a step forward, his body springing up as he struck down from the air. The force of his palm strike shattered the very air, whipping up a storm that descended upon Ye Wushuang’s head.

”You know who I am, yet you still want to kill me. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by the Sect?”

Ye Wushuang watched him quietly, his expression as calm as a placid lake, his eyes devoid of any ripple.

”Hahaha! Right now, there is only a spy impersonating Ye Wushuang, trying to infiltrate the Ancient Spirit Sect! I am merely helping the Sect by executing a spy. It’s perfectly reasonable and a great merit. I’ll be too busy receiving rewards to be punished!”

Lee Tongtian sneered mockingly. He knew in his heart that the person before him was indeed Ye Wushuang, but so what?

’If Ye Wushuang returns to Broken Sword Peak, he’ll surely be held in high regard by the Sect. When that happens, will there be any good days left for me, Lee Tongtian?’

’The only way out now is to prevent Ye Wushuang from returning to Broken Sword Peak, from meeting the Sect Master or the Elders. That’s the only way to avoid disaster. And to do that, I have to kill Ye Wushuang.’

’Ye Wushuang might be strong, but I’m confident I can kill him.’

Hearing Lee Tongtian’s explanation, how could Ye Wushuang not understand his intentions?

Ye Wushuang sneered, ”It seems you’re quite certain you’ve got me cornered, aren’t you?”

”What do you think? Now die!”

Lee Tongtian gave a vicious smile and unleashed his full power. The resulting might was terrifying to the extreme, destroying everything in the vicinity.

Looking at the confident Lee Tongtian, Ye Wushuang shook his head. But then his gaze suddenly sharpened. Instead of retreating, he advanced, smashing a golden fist upward.

POW!

The golden fist, like a Little Sun, shot out a dazzling golden light as it collided with Lee Tongtian’s palm, erupting with a tremendous sound of impact.

BOOM!

With the ease of crushing rotten wood, the golden fist blasted apart Lee Tongtian’s palm strike.

”How is this possible?”

Lee Tongtian’s pupils shrank as he cried out in shock. He had unleashed his full power, yet it couldn’t even withstand a single punch from Ye Wushuang.

”Just a defeated foe, and you still think you can kill me?”

Ye Wushuang said mockingly as his golden fist drove straight forward like an unstoppable force, shattering Lee Tongtian’s defense, breaking through his Protective Gang Qi, and landing on his body.

BAM!

Instantly, Lee Tongtian’s body shuddered. Blood sprayed out like a misty rain as he was sent flying by the immense force. With a loud CRASH, he slammed into the ground, carving out a large crater.

’That kind of force is too terrifying.’

In that instant, several of Lee Tongtian’s bones were broken, and he coughed up mouthful after mouthful of blood.

The crowd watching from the side shuddered violently.

”Is this the strength of a ruthless person? He’s not a piece of trash anymore,” some Disciples murmured, looking at Ye Wushuang with expressions full of horror and awe.

Ye Wushuang might have been trash before, but now, he had risen. He was simply too powerful.

”Pathetic.”

Looking at the fallen Lee Tongtian, Ye Wushuang sneered.

”You...” SPLAT!

Hearing Ye Wushuang’s mockery, Lee Tongtian spurted out another mouthful of blood and collapsed completely on the ground, as if he had literally been angered to death.

”Who dares cause trouble in the Sect?”

Noticing the commotion, a loud shout exploded in the air.

BOOM!

Just as the voice fell, an elderly figure strode through the air. The pressure of his Spirit Dao might spread out, making people feel as if they were suffocating.

Ye Wushuang stood quietly, looking up at the sky. That voice was all too familiar. Who else could it be but Anx Shijie?

Anx Shijie strode across the sky and came to a stop in the air. He looked down at the widespread destruction below, his cold brows sinking. He was about to ask what had happened when he saw Ye Wushuang’s figure.

”Ye Wushuang!”

Instantly, those two words were spat from Anx Shijie’s mouth through gritted teeth. An ice-cold gaze shot from his eyes like a frozen blade.

’That little bastard is still alive!’

Anx Shijie couldn’t believe it. He had heard long ago that Ye Wushuang had been buried in the Earth Palace. He had been overjoyed at the news and was even planning to celebrate.

But now, this sight left him utterly disappointed.

His gaze swept over the wreckage of the pavilion and Lee Tongtian’s body lying dead in front of it, and he was deeply shocked.

’I knew Lee Tongtian. He went to the Earth Palace and reached the True Essence Ninth Layer, yet he died here.’

Anx Shijie directed the pressure of his Spirit Dao toward Ye Wushuang and interrogated him coldly, ”Did you kill him?”

Ye Wushuang replied indifferently, ”No. He was angered to death.”

”Bastard! You dare mock this Elder?! He was perfectly fine, how could he be ’angered to death’? You must have killed him.” Anx Shijie’s eyes turned cold. ”To murder a fellow disciple within the Sect is a crime punishable by death. Today, this Elder will execute you, you beast, to uphold the Sect’s rules!”

BOOM!

After spitting out his self-righteous speech, Anx Shijie dove down from the sky. He unleashed the full power of his Spiritual Spring Realm cultivation, holding nothing back, his intent to kill absolutely firm.
