Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Inside his room at the inn.

Ye Wushuang held the invitation and sniffed the somewhat familiar fragrance, though for a moment he couldn’t recall who it belonged to.

’The auction starts in one month. Nirvana Powerhouses will surely be there, and they should have some Heaven and Earth Spiritual Veins on them.’

As he thought this, Ye Wushuang took out a segment of golden bone. It was densely covered with mysterious Inscriptions and flickered with a strange Holy Light.

This golden bone was none other than the Holy Bone, which held a fatal allure for Nirvana Powerhouses. If he put this up for auction, he might be able to obtain some Heaven and Earth Spiritual Veins.

”Young Master!” Just as Ye Wushuang took out the Holy Bone, Lan Xinyu’s voice sounded from outside the room.

”Come in.” Ye Wushuang put away the Holy Bone and called out. Lan Xinyu, the Shadow Demon King, and the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc walked in.

Instantly, Ye Wushuang’s gaze fell upon the Shadow Demon King.

Then, he turned to Lan Xinyu and asked, ”What is it?”

”Young Master, it would be better if he told you himself.”

Lan Xinyu looked at the Shadow Demon King.

The Shadow Demon King immediately took a step forward and asked respectfully, ”Master, are you searching for your father, Ye Xuan?”

SWOOSH!

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s gaze sharpened, and he stared intently at the Shadow Demon King. ”You know?”

The Shadow Demon King replied, ”Reporting to Master, this subordinate saw your father a year ago. At that time, it seemed he had found an ancient tomb and obtained some peerless fortune, which led to him being hunted by the Zong Family.”

’Hunted by the Zong Family?’

A chill entered Ye Wushuang’s eyes, and his pupils grew impossibly cold.

”Do you know my father’s exact whereabouts?”

Ye Wushuang raised his head to look at the Shadow Demon King, pressing for an answer.

Within those indifferent eyes was a coldness like that of Hell itself, causing the Shadow Demon King’s pupils to shrink.

’What terrifying eyes!’

The Shadow Demon King had never seen such a cold gaze before.

After steadying his nerves, he said, ”Reporting to Master, although the Zong Family sent powerhouses to hunt your father, they didn’t gain any advantage. I heard he was rescued by someone, and later, it was rumored that he appeared in the Sinful City.”

Hearing the Shadow Demon King’s explanation, Ye Wushuang’s heart finally settled.

”Don’t worry, Young Master. Since the Master was rescued, he should be fine,” Lan Xinyu comforted him from the side.

’The Sinful City, one of the Overlords!’

Ye Wushuang nodded. He too hoped that nothing was wrong. After the auction, he would make a trip there. Only by confirming his father was out of danger could he truly be at ease.

Then, he looked at the Shadow Demon King and said, ”Hand over everything you have on you.”

’Everything?’

The Shadow Demon King was stunned for a moment. He stared at Ye Wushuang. Ye Wushuang wanted everything he had, absolutely all of it. ’Is it really okay to rob someone like this?!’

However, his life was now in Ye Wushuang’s hands. What were mere treasures in comparison?

Gritting his teeth, the Shadow Demon King took out a Storage Ring.

Ye Wushuang took it and looked inside, quite surprised himself. A Half-Step Nirvana Realm expert really had a lot of treasures.

Among them were several Ancient Medicine Kings, one Top-Grade Spirit Communication Treasure, a large amount of Treasure Medicine and Spiritual Pills, some Combat Techniques and Skills, and a few Spiritual Talent Celestial Treasures.

In addition, Ye Wushuang’s gaze fell on a mountain of Spirit Stones—an astonishing quantity!

Ye Wushuang picked one up; it was a Top-Grade Spirit Stone.

”Master, some of these Spirit Stones were plundered from other Cultivators, and some I dug up from a Spirit Stone Vein in a Secret Realm. In total, there are several tens of millions,” the Shadow Demon King explained.

Ye Wushuang nodded and said, ”You are dismissed. I’ll hold on to these things for you.”

”Yes!”

The corner of the Shadow Demon King’s mouth twitched. He gave Ye Wushuang a strange look before retreating. Lan Xinyu pursed her lips into a smile and also left with the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc.

After they left, Ye Wushuang put away the Storage Ring and entered a state of Cultivation!

There was still some Heaven and Earth Essence he hadn’t refined, as well as the power he had devoured from the Profound Level Green Robed Elder.

There was still a month before the auction, so Ye Wushuang began the Refinement of these two sources of power.

With the help of these two vast sources of energy, Ye Wushuang broke through to the Rebirth Level Third Layer!

At the same time, he also refined the Battle Saber and the small golden bell he had obtained from the Star Universe.

Both of these items were Half-Saint Soldiers. Although much of their spirituality had faded, their power was no less than that of a Top-Grade Spirit Communication Treasure!

The small golden bell, in particular, possessed formidable defensive power!

Of course, Ye Wushuang also attempted to refine the Holy Bone. The countless Holy Patterns on the bone were refined and shattered, only to reform into a kind of Dragon-Shaped Rune that was branded into Ye Wushuang’s bones and flesh.

His Treasure Body, already at the Great Success stage, took another step forward, moving closer to becoming a Holy Body.

Of course, while ”Treasure Body” and ”Holy Body” only differed by a single word, the gap between them was as vast as heaven and earth. He still had a long way to go before he could break through to the Holy Body stage.

「One month later」

Ye Wushuang walked out of his room. Holy Light flickered in his eyes, and his vitality was thick and abundant. Having refined the Holy Bone, his Treasure Body had advanced even further.

Ye Wushuang himself wasn’t sure just how powerful his body had become, but he knew one thing: crushing a Yang Destruction Level expert would be no problem at all!

After tidying himself up, Ye Wushuang led his group toward the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop.

The auction was beginning. The grand plaza of the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop was already a sea of people, with countless individuals gathered to witness the grand event.

The four of them made their way through the crowd to the entrance of the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop.

”It’s you again, you peasant!”

Just as Ye Wushuang was about to step into the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop, a disdainful voice rang out from behind him.

Ye Wushuang stopped and turned around to see Jing Kang approaching with a group of Jing Family members.

”I wonder if your face still hurts!”

Ye Wushuang stared at Jing Kang and uttered the words indifferently.

”You...”

At his words, Jing Kang was reminded of the incident at Peach Blossom Spring. His face flushed red, and his heart burned with rage.

However, being on the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop’s territory, he didn’t lash out. Suppressing his anger, he said, ”Peasant, this young master won’t stoop to your level. Just hope you don’t fall into my hands, or I won’t let you off.”

”Young Master Jing, what has made you so angry!”

A middle-aged man at the entrance came forward with a welcoming smile.

HUMPH!

Hearing this, Jing Kang shot Ye Wushuang a cold glare and said no more.

”Young Master, please come in!”

Immediately, the middle-aged man, Shopkeeper Liu, turned his head, extended a hand respectfully toward Ye Wushuang, and gestured for him to enter.

”Shopkeeper Liu, I think you’re inviting the wrong person.” Seeing Shopkeeper Liu’s gesture, Jing Kang became furious, his voice filled with displeasure.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Liu turned back with a smile and called out, ”My apologies, Young Master Jing, you are also welcome!”

”Shopkeeper Liu, I am the Young Master of the Jing Family! Are you telling me to enter the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop at the same time as a peasant? Is my Jing Family worth less than some peasant?”

Jing Kang’s face darkened, clearly displeased with Shopkeeper Liu’s words. Behind him, the expressions of the other Jing Family members also soured.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, ”Young Master Jing, please don’t misunderstand. I...”

Jing Kang immediately cut him off. ”Shopkeeper Liu, I won’t waste words. Today, either I go in, and the Jing Family and the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop remain on good terms, or this peasant goes in. You should be clear on the consequences.”

Hearing this, Lan Xinyu and the others looked displeased. Jing Kang was clearly using his influence to bully them.

Ye Wushuang also frowned, staring coldly at Jing Kang.

”Young Master Jing, you’re putting me in a difficult position. You are both valued guests of the Ten Thousand Treasures Celestial Workshop. How could I possibly neglect either of you?” Shopkeeper Liu said with a bitter smile.

”Shopkeeper Liu, consider my noble status, and then consider his. A dragon cannot share its lair with a snake, don’t you know that? Between him and I, only one may enter.”

But Jing Kang paid him no mind, standing his ground and demanding that Shopkeeper Liu make a choice: either Ye Wushuang entered, or he did!

”This...”

At these words, Shopkeeper Liu gave a bitter smile and turned to glance at Ye Wushuang.
