Legend of Swordsman

If it weren’t for forcibly breaking through the Ninth Tribulation realm back then, he could have maintained his status as the Eighth Tribulation Universe Master all along.

It was all because of greed!

And this greed hadn’t ceased yet.

Seeing Divine Wood King surpassing himself, the Patriarch of the Bai Family also regained his peak.

He was anxious!

So he chose to cooperate with the terrifying existence that emerged from the blood-colored treasure.

All the talk about the power of Life back then was fake. Everything was because of that treasure.

Now, he didn’t even know if his calculations were wrong.

But in the pursuit of power, he had no choice.

“Wudao, you’ve worked hard this time!” After a moment of silence, Ye Xiaowang unexpectedly showed a gentle expression, turning to look at Ye Wudao, the descendant who resembled him the most.

Equally greedy.

The pursuit of power had reached its peak.

Even his own daughter could be betrayed.

But she was also his descendant!

Although this descendant was probably a reincarnated practitioner, he also had the bloodline of their Ye Family.

For a moment, Ye Wudao didn’t understand the Patriarch’s meaning and was a little dazed. “Patriarch…”

“Tomorrow, I will go to visit that Daoist Tianji. You just need to stabilize Xiao’er. As for Lingyun, don’t trouble him anymore. Let there be a quiet person left for our Ye Family!” After living for so many years, Ye Xiaowang had seen through some things.

“Yes!” Ye Wudao’s face brightened.

With the matter settled, he didn’t linger on the clan mountain and went straight back to the main mansion.

But on the clan mountain, the Ye Xiaowang remained standing.

The matter of seclusion was also revealed.

Gazing at the blood-red sky, he fell into thought.

The next day!

A trace of blood color streaked across the sky.

Long Night City welcomed the second day.

There was no daytime, only night.

Let’s use the crimson color to differentiate.

For cultivators, they don’t particularly pursue black and white; either is fine.

Everyone can get through.

Hu Qing had been in the room the whole time, waiting for someone to come to him.

“Hmm?”

A presence, no less formidable than his own, descended upon the sect residence.

He noticed the visitor immediately, a faint smile playing on his lips as he began to rise to prepare tea. “You’re here already!”

He couldn’t resist a teasing remark.

Initially, he was worried the other party might take some time.

By then, Jian Wushuang and the others might arrive.

That would be somewhat disadvantageous to him.

Hu Qing’s aim was to settle everything before Jian Wushuang and the others arrived.

Then, he would take the initiative to approach Jian Wushuang and return to Qishen Temple together.

This place was just an interlude.

Someone had commissioned him to come here.

That’s why he was so attentive.

If it weren’t for the commission, he would have gone to find Jian Wushuang long ago.

Clack!

The wooden door made a crisp sound.

Hu Qing’s voice remained calm. “Please come in.”

The door of branches was pushed open.

An old man with a hooked nose stood at the threshold wearing a gray linen robe. Instead of entering, he smiled lightly. “Dao Friend, could we have a chat in the void?”

As he spoke, he forcefully manipulated a strong divine power, pulling Hu Qing through the fabric of space, entering the void of the Primordial Black Heaven.

Hu Qing still held a cup of tea in his hand, surprised. “So direct?”

“Tsk tsk, aren’t you the same?” Ye Xiaowang sneered.

Bringing Ye Lingxiao back to the Ye Family without mentioning compensation was quite suspicious, especially coming from a super powerhouse at the Eighth Tribulation.

Bringing Ye Lingxiao to the Ancient Moon Spacetime in the desolate land was quite laughable.

Would an Eighth Tribulation super powerhouse need to curry favor with their Ye Family?

While the Ye Family was influential in the Ancient Moon Spacetime, in the broader context, there was only one family with an Eighth Tribulation realm powerhouse, hardly considered top-tier.

At best, they were second-rate.

An Eighth Tribulation super powerhouse wouldn’t bother currying favor with a second-rate family, leaving only one reason.

The other party was probing them.

Probing their treasures.

What did the Ye Family have?

The blood-colored power!

And the crimson treasure of the Ye Xiaowang.

“You’ve entered my Ye Family, and for whatever reason, I don’t want to know, but today you must die!” Ye Xiaowang spread his arms, and the surrounding spacetime instantly began to solidify.

“Bloody splatter!”

The power of blood instantly enveloped the entire spacetime.

Including the two cultivators.

Except, there was also a thin monster approaching from afar.

Buzz!

The newcomer was also the target of Hu Qing this time.

“Xilu!” Hu Qing’s face showed a hint of joy, he somewhat liked this directness.

Coming up and striking immediately.

With much less beating around the bush.

Actually, he could have acted in the Long Night City, but in order not to kill those cultivators by mistake, he had been waiting for them to come to him.

He was unwilling to harm the innocent, but the other party was trying not to expose their identity.

Xilu was somewhat surprised to hear his name being called out directly, his figure also stopped, and his gaze was astonished as he said, “You know me?”

“A product of the Machine Clan, someone has been eyeing you since the moment you were born in the Northern Spacetime!”

Ye Xiaowang was also very surprised!

He didn’t expect someone to know about Xilu’s situation. “Not good!”

He quickly realized that something was amiss.

Hu Qing knew about Xilu’s existence.

Perhaps there was a big shot behind this.

Coming here was also to eradicate Xilu.

He understood Xilu as well, a creature without bottlenecks.

Allowing it to grow would definitely be a disaster for the Northern Spacetime.

Hu Qing came here, probably to eradicate Xilu.

Being so confident, then…

“Attack together!” Ye Xiaowang didn’t hesitate, directly roaring angrily, and his divine power soared to 13 million.

Xilu also knew that this time he had encountered a tough opponent, his golden power erupted, and his divine power directly broke through to 15 million.

One at the peak of the Eighth Tribulation realm, one at the complete stage of the Eighth Tribulation realm.

The two joined forces, even if the Pope of the Ancient Moon Sect came, it would be difficult to suppress them.

However, Hu Qing was extremely calm, he was prepared for this.

With both hands open, one hand brought down the sun and moon, and divine power surged like a spring eruption.

At the same time, there was also a huge heavenly canopy descending.

That was Hu Qing’s Origin Source Dao Arena.

The Origin Source Dao Arena of the Eighth Tribulation realm.

He inherited the last Origin Source of the Celestial Maiden, and reached the complete-stage of the Eighth Tribulation in one fell swoop.

His divine power also erupted to 15 million.

The sun and moon in his hands turned into an ancient staff, sweeping away everything.

The solidified space was instantly shattered.

“How is this possible?” Ye Xiaowang couldn’t believe it, his spacetime blockade was instantly broken, and he also felt the true strength of Hu Qing.

The Universe Master at the complete-stage of the Eighth Tribulation realm.

With the Dao Arena descending, Hu Qing’s divine power surged again.

It had already reached the level of the Pope of the Ancient Moon Sect.

Xilu was also a little panicked. At this moment, he only had 15 million divine power.

Seeing spacetime being shattered, both of them were in mortal danger.

“Ye Xiaowang, hand over that treasure to me now, otherwise, we will all perish!” Xilu anxiously looked at Ye Xiaowang. The reason he returned to the Ye Family was for the power of blood within that treasure.

But he underestimated Ye Xiaowang’s ambition, how could he possibly give away such a crucial treasure.
