Why did the Shang Clan act now?
It was simply because their previous attempt to assassinate Ye Wushuang had failed.
The Shang Clan could no longer endure the situation and decided to take a risky gamble.
At least for now, things did not seem too dire.
As long as Qing Xian and the others could not hold their ground, those initial-stage Tiangang realm powerhouses could directly come and kill Ye Wushuang.
No matter how formidable Ye Wushuang might be, he was still only at the Yuanfu realm; he could never be a match for the Tiangang realm!
So, all they had to do was delay.
However, both Liu Yingyue and Shang Gufeng had believed that by joining forces, they could kill Ye Wushuang.
Now, with Liu Yingyue’s life in Ye Wushuang’s hands, that was where the trouble began.
*”As if you would let me go anyway!”*
Ye Wushuang sneered, *”At first, you sent your disciples to kill me. When that failed, you resorted to assassination. And when that failed too, it was time for an all-out war, wasn’t it?”*
Xiao Ruonan was taken aback upon hearing these words.
*”This woman, with her incessant chatter, I’ve endured her… I’ve had enough!”*
Ye Wushuang grasped the Tianya Sword and said indifferently, *”Does she not realize that I dared to kill Liu Yiyu? Do I fear killing her?”*
As soon as Ye Wushuang finished speaking, the Tianya Sword sliced through Liu Yingyue’s neck with a sickening sound.
Blood gushed out.
But Ye Wushuang did not stop.
The sword continued to swipe across Liu Yingyue’s neck.
The grating sound sent shivers of terror through everyone’s hearts.
In the distance, Qing Shiyu quickly covered Ye Feifei’s and Qing Yan’s eyes, not wanting them to witness the horror.
Ye Wushuang, usually gentle and amiable, was truly… brutal and bloodthirsty when it came to killing.
Ye Wushuang forcibly severed Liu Yingyue’s head and held it aloft.
His once pristine white robe was now stained red with blood.
His hands were drenched in it.
Xiao Ruonan, upon seeing this, was filled with sheer terror and had no heart for battle.
*”Damn it!”*
Xiao Ruonan tried to flee at that moment.
He looked around at the Shang Clan’s Yuanfu realm experts surrounding the arena and shouted, *”What are you waiting for? Kill him!”*
The Yuanfu realm experts surrounding the arena were paralyzed with fear, and none dared to move.
*”Kill him!”*
Shang Gufeng roared in anger.
Only then did the Shang Clan warriors rush forward en masse.
All of them were experts from the fourth to the ninth level of the Yuanfu realm, charging in without hesitation.
Ye Wushuang casually tossed Liu Yingyue’s head aside and looked at the crowd, his expression cold and arrogant. *”Come at me!”*
Boom…
The arena erupted into a cacophony of roars.
The Liu Yuan Gui Yi Sword Technique, in Ye Wushuang’s hands, was executed with unparalleled mastery.
Terrifying sword energy radiated in all directions.
From time to time, Ye Wushuang would cast the spiritual technique—Fissure Wind, which continuously claimed lives.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight corpses lay on the arena.
Xiao Ruonan had already taken the opportunity to slip away.
But…
The entire Qingyun Academy was sealed off, and he could not escape.
With no other choice, Xiao Ruonan had to join Qin Wenjun and Chu Yaqin.
*”I don’t want to die!”*
Xiao Ruonan said, *”Ye Wushuang is a madman; he’s surely going to die this time. I don’t want to sacrifice my life. I still want to participate in the Hundred Nations Martial Contest!”*
Qin Wenjun, seeing the terrified Xiao Ruonan, replied, *”Xiao brother, come on up!”*
Xiao Ruonan immediately climbed up to the top of the pavilion where Qin Wenjun and Chu Yaqin were staying.
Even then, his whole body was trembling.
Ye Wushuang was truly terrifying.
At this moment, on the arena, over a hundred Yuanfu realm warriors were attempting to kill Ye Wushuang, but… more of them were being killed by Ye Wushuang instead.
This young man at the fifth level of the Yuanfu realm could take the life of a warrior from the fourth to the seventh level with a single sword strike.
As for those at the eighth and ninth levels… it would just take a few more strikes.
Even Xiao Ruonan and Shang Gufeng, who were extremely powerful talents, could not stop Ye Wushuang, let alone the Shang Clan’s elite guards.
As Xiao Ruonan had thought, while there were many of them, they were merely cannon fodder.
Without a coordinated attack strategy, and unable to overwhelm Ye Wushuang all at once, attacking in small groups was futile against him.
The only way was to exhaust Ye Wushuang.
But exhausting Ye Wushuang was nearly as impossible as climbing to the heavens!
At this moment, Shang Gufeng stood by the arena, watching Ye Wushuang slaughter his way through the encirclement of over a hundred Yuanfu realm warriors as if he were in a vacuum, his eyes filled with sheer terror.
