As the words left his lips, the Tianyan Sword in Ye Wushuang’s hand gradually sank into Shi Wenwu’s neck. Blood gushed out in spurts, and as the sword tip penetrated deeper and deeper, even his own clothes were stained with blood.
*Pffft!*
The sword was swiftly withdrawn.
Blood sprayed out in a crimson arc.
Shi Wenwu, in a desperate attempt to stifle the gushing wound on his neck, clutched at it with all his might, but it was futile. His body convulsed and twitched violently, and soon, all life ebbed away from him.
The warriors of the Shi family, who witnessed this scene, stepped forward with murderous intent, their eyes blazing with fury.
But Shi Wenbo, with a simple gesture of his hand, halted them.
“You are no match for him,” he said, his voice calm yet authoritative. The group immediately ceased their advance.
Turning his gaze to Ye Wushuang, Shi Wenbo continued, “There are many opportunities within this Guangling Cliff. I do not wish to waste my time here with you.”
“Face me in three moves. If you survive, I will let bygones be bygones.”
His tone was serene, as if the deaths of Shi Wenwu, Shi Wenque, and Shi Ya at Ye Wushuang’s hands were insignificant compared to the opportunities he sought within the cliff.
Without waiting for a response, Shi Wenbo launched himself into action.
“Amazing speed!”
The onlookers could only catch a fleeting glimpse of his figure as he appeared in front of Ye Wushuang in an instant. His fists clenched tightly, with a faint yellow pattern condensing on their surface, and he unleashed a powerful punch towards Ye Wushuang.
Without hesitation, Ye Wushuang raised his hand and slapped it out.
The Holy Thunder Palm!
The collision of fist and palm.
*Boom…*
A deep, resonant sound echoed through the air.
Ye Wushuang was forced to retreat ten steps, barely catching his breath before Shi Wenbo’s second move came crashing down.
His fists converged, the earth-yellow patterns glowing brightly, like a mountain sweeping across the land.
“The Divine Thunder Palm!”
Ye Wushuang’s palm energy erupted once more, with thunder roaring and colliding fiercely.
*Boom…*
Another explosive sound rang out.
This time, however, Ye Wushuang stood firm.
Seeing this, Shi Wenbo halted his attack.
“There is no need for a third move. You have some skill, since you were able to kill Qian Guxing,” Shi Wenbo said indifferently.
He knew that if Ye Wushuang could withstand his first two moves without harm, the third would not be fatal either, so he decided to let it go.
With that, Shi Wenbo turned and walked away.
As he had said, the Guangling Cliff was filled with opportunities. The Bai Ling Mountain was just the beginning; there were even greater chances to come.
If he were to engage in a fierce battle with Ye Wushuang here, even if he killed him, it would not only waste time but also risk injury. Injured, he would find it difficult to compete with the other top talents for the subsequent opportunities.
Since he couldn’t kill Ye Wushuang in three moves, he decided to let him live for now.
After all, once the Guangling Cliff expedition was over, it would be the same whether he killed Ye Wushuang then or now.
“Hey!”
Just as Shi Wenbo was walking away, a voice called out from behind him, “Who said you could leave?”
*Whoosh…*
In an instant, a figure charged forward.
It was Ye Wushuang.
The Tianyan Sword was summoned, and Ye Wushuang struck directly at Shi Wenbo’s back.
Shi Wenbo reacted swiftly, turning around and unleashing a double-fisted attack with explosive force.
*Boom!!!*
The two figures clashed and immediately separated.
Frowning, Shi Wenbo looked at Ye Wushuang, puzzled.
He had already spared Ye Wushuang’s life, yet Ye Wushuang was not content with escaping death and still dared to attack him!
Did this guy really want to die?
“Are you going to fight whenever you want? Don’t I have any dignity?” Ye Wushuang said with a smile.
“I spared your life, and you don’t know how to cherish it?” Shi Wenbo asked curiously.
“Hmph!”
Ye Wushuang didn’t bother to say anything more.
These self-righteous geniuses needed to be taught a lesson, one punch at a time, to make them realize that the world does not revolve around them.
*Clang…*
The Tianyan Sword gleamed with light.
The Mysterious Thunder Sword Technique was unleashed.
The sword’s momentum and the microcosmic state of mind merged into one.
“The sword roars like thunder.”
As the sword was unsheathed, the surrounding world seemed to be filled with endless rolling thunder.
The sword energy seemed to be born from the sea of thunder, carrying an irresistible and unstoppable force.
Seeing this, Shi Wenbo’s expression changed slightly.
This young man was a swordsman who had grasped the momentum of the sword!
Moreover, he had integrated the power of the myriad laws with the attribute of thunder to a profound degree.
Without hesitation, the myriad laws’ power surged within Shi Wenbo, and his skin hardened like rock.
“Hmm? Bloodline power…” Ye Wushuang remarked as he swung his sword down. The sword energy struck Shi Wenbo’s body, producing a series of *clangs*.
Shi Wenbo’s body was as hard as a suit of armor.
From a distance, Zhao Tianque, witnessing this, couldn’t help but laugh. “This Ye Wushuang has quite a personality, but unfortunately… he’s picked the wrong person to provoke.”
“Shi Wenbo didn’t want to get entangled with him and should have known when to stop… but he insisted on fighting Shi Wenbo.”
“The Shi family’s lava bloodline power, which possesses both fire and earth attributes, is… both offensive and defensive.”
Zhao Tianque shook his head.
Did Ye Wushuang really think Shi Wenbo was being arrogant?
Zhao Tianque understood that Shi Wenbo truly didn’t consider Ye Wushuang a worthy opponent.
Zhao Tianque felt the same way!
That’s why he understood Shi Wenbo’s thoughts.
But now…
Ye Wushuang had that stubbornness—if you don’t kill me, you won’t get away!
Thinking of this, Zhao Tianque shook his head with a wry smile.
These geniuses from Qingzhou still hadn’t seen the situation clearly.
They were from various forces in the major states near the Central Continent, which was incomparable to the remote Qingzhou.
*Boom…*
A terrifying roar erupted.
Ye Wushuang stood firm, looking at the stone-like patterns on Shi Wenbo’s body, realizing that he had activated his bloodline power.
Shi Wenbo gazed coldly at Ye Wushuang and sneered, “I spared your life, but you didn’t cherish it. Since that’s the case, I’ll grant your wish and kill you.”
