Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

The Sword Light vanished in a flash. The Sky-Split Earth Dragon’s body froze in place, the vicious glint in its blood-red eyes disappearing completely.

PSHH!

A bloody line traced down from its head, splitting the Sky-Split Earth Dragon’s body in two. The cut was shockingly clean, almost bloodless.

”Such a fast sword!”

Nearby, the eyes of the black-robed elder watching the fight went rigid. The physical toughness of the Sky-Split Earth Dragon was terrifying, yet under that fleeting Sword Light, it was as fragile as paper. In a single instant, it was torn in two.

Just from the clean, precise wound, he knew how fast that strike had been. Only a sword that had reached the apex of speed could cause that kind of damage.

And he had done it in the instant he drew his sword, annihilating the Sky-Split Earth Dragon. The control over that terrifying explosive power was just too precise, too perfect!

The Heavenly Sword Technique gathers Sword Momentum and unleashes it in a single, explosive instant. Only an ultimate strike could achieve such a result!

This was a true Speed Sword, a sword of explosive power!

Looking at his newly mastered Heavenly Sword Technique, Ye Wushuang nodded in satisfaction. ’This kind of explosive power... this is a true killing move!’

This unexpected outcome stunned the crowd. That flash of Sword Light still lingered in their minds, and none of them knew how the strike had been delivered.

All they felt was speed. Unbelievable speed!

As they looked at Ye Wushuang’s figure, the gazes of the onlookers changed.

This round, Ye Wushuang wins!

The prize was two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, but for him, the greatest reward wasn’t the stones, but mastering the Heavenly Sword Technique.

Stepping out of the cage, Ye Wushuang walked toward Lan Xinyu and the others, his eyes sweeping over the young nobleman.

The young nobleman’s expression instantly stiffened, and he didn’t dare to meet Ye Wushuang’s gaze.

”Terrifying!”

Approaching Zhuang Hao, Zhuang Hao uttered a single word. When Dongfang Youdi had introduced Ye Wushuang earlier, he had merely thought of him as Dongfang Youdi’s friend.

But now, he saw that Ye Wushuang was an expert—a terrifying one at that!

It wasn’t just Zhuang Hao; the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc and Lan Xinyu were also shocked. They had no idea when Ye Wushuang had acquired such terrifying skills, even though they had been with him all this time!

But beyond their shock, their eyes were filled with nothing but admiration and reverence.

”Ye Wushuang!”

At the same time, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

The voice was familiar to Ye Wushuang; he’d heard it before.

Ye Wushuang turned, his eyes narrowing. It was the woman from the Zong Family he had met at the Baihua Tower. Beside her stood a handsome young man who was at the Rebirth Second Layer of the Yin Yang Realm. ’Judging by his age,’ Ye Wushuang thought, ’he must be a powerful genius!’

”I bet you didn’t expect we’d meet again here!”

Zong Min walked toward Ye Wushuang, a cold sneer on her face. ’Ye Wushuang hit me, and he still dares to show up on Zong Family turf? He truly doesn’t know his own limits!’

The young man stared at Ye Wushuang, his brow furrowed as he asked coldly, ”So you’re the one who hit Min!”

”And what of it?”

Ye Wushuang stared back at the young man and retorted. He had hit her, and there was no reason to deny it. A man had to take responsibility for his actions.

”’And what of it?’”

Hearing Ye Wushuang’s admission, the young man’s gaze darkened. ”You hit her, and now you’re standing on my Zong Family’s territory, asking me ’and what of it’? You’re outrageously arrogant!”

”Brother Zong Ming, I want... to tear the skin from his face. Make him pay for what he did, a hundred times over!” Zong Min said softly, but her words were venomous. She wanted to rip off Ye Wushuang’s face to avenge a single slap!

Hearing Zong Min’s words, Zhuang Hao’s eyes narrowed. ’What a vicious woman,’ he thought. ’I wonder how Brother Ye managed to offend her?’

Only Lan Xinyu, Dongfang Youdi, and the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc knew what had happened at the Baihua Tower. They all understood that this woman had come for revenge.

”It seems you’re fated not to walk out of here today!” Zong Ming stepped forward as he spoke, a powerful aura erupting from his body.

”You want to kill me?”

Ye Wushuang’s expression remained unchanged, but his eyes narrowed.

”A life-and-death duel. You and me. We’ll use the cage below as our arena. Do you dare? I’ll grant you a glorious death!” Zong Ming stared at Ye Wushuang, speaking as if offering a great kindness.

”Brother Ye, don’t!”

Hearing this, Zhuang Hao’s expression changed, and he immediately tried to warn Ye Wushuang.

”What, are you a coward?” Zong Ming sneered when Ye Wushuang didn’t answer. The word ”coward” was a clear taunt to provoke him.

”I’ll be waiting for you in the cage below!”

Without waiting for Ye Wushuang’s answer, Zong Ming turned and walked toward the cage below.

”Brother Ye, you should forfeit this fight,” Zhuang Hao warned again. ”Zong Ming’s surname is Zong. This Dueling Arena is under the control of the Zong Family—his family!”

The Zong Family!

Ye Wushuang’s gaze flickered. He understood Zhuang Hao’s warning. ’But so what?’ he thought. ’Should I really be a coward just because this is the Zong Family’s territory?’

’If they’ve issued a challenge, then I’ll fight!’

Without saying a word, Ye Wushuang walked down.

Seeing this, Zhuang Hao gave a bitter smile. ’Dueling on Zong Family territory... no matter what happens, there can only be one outcome: Ye Wushuang will die!’

”He’s courting death!”

Zong Min sneered.

Watching the two men standing in the Prisoner Arena, the onlookers sighed and murmured among themselves.

”I’m surprised you actually dared to come down. It seems I’ve underestimated you.” Zong Ming looked at Ye Wushuang’s descending figure with surprise on his face.

”Are you certain you wish to fight?” The black-robed elder stepped forward and asked Zong Ming.

”I must. This man caused my Zong Family to lose face in front of everyone. Today, I will execute him in front of all these people to win that face back. We must fight!”

Zong Ming spoke with resounding force, causing the black-robed elder to nod and step back.

”After what you did, you should have gone into hiding. But instead, you came courting death on Zong Family territory. All I can say is, it’s your unlucky day!”

Turning back to Ye Wushuang, a mocking smile appeared on Zong Ming’s face.

”Are you done with your nonsense?”

Ye Wushuang suddenly interjected.

Instantly, Zong Ming’s smile froze, and his gaze locked onto Ye Wushuang.

”If you’re done, then let’s fight.” Ye Wushuang said no more. ’No matter how fancy the words, they’re useless without strength. Otherwise, you’re just a waste of space who can only talk big.’

BOOM!

Ye Wushuang stepped forward, unleashing the Seven Kills Fist.

”Since you’re in such a hurry to die, I’ll grant you your wish.”

Zong Ming’s expression turned cold. He drew a Treasure Sword and slashed through the air.

Azure Sword Light flickered within the cage, tearing at every inch of space. Its killing intent was terrifying, enough to shred anyone in the Spiritual Spring Realm!

The incoming Seven Kills Fist was instantly obliterated by the azure Sword Light!

”I heard Brother Zong Ming’s Sword Dao is nearly on par with the family elders. It really is terrifying!” Zong Min watched the azure Sword Light below, her face alight with glee.

The azure Sword Light spread in all directions, relentlessly pressing in on Ye Wushuang.

BOOM!

Ye Wushuang’s body flickered. His golden fist smashed out once again, carrying unparalleled energy as it crashed into the sky-filling azure Sword Light.

”Draw your sword! Otherwise, you won’t get another chance!”

Seeing Ye Wushuang still attacking with only his fists, Zong Ming felt utterly disrespected. The fact that Ye Wushuang wouldn’t even use his sword against him was the ultimate humiliation, and it infuriated him.

The azure Sword Light flared, growing even more intense as it hung in the air, threatening to annihilate everything in its path.

”Make me draw my sword? You’re not worthy!”

Unleashing a destructive punch, Ye Wushuang soared into the air, advancing with the Seven Steps of the Reversed Dragon.

As he took the fifth step, heaven and earth trembled!

The hearts of the crowd trembled with that step. Like a soap bubble, the azure Sword Light instantly collapsed.

The look of glee on Zong Min’s face vanished in an instant.
