In the midst of the fierce confrontation, Li Xinhen engaged in battle with Tai Shengzi. Caught off guard, Li Xinhen was unexpectedly shaken back by Tai Shengzi’s sudden attack, having fallen into Tai Shengzi’s trap. As his body retreated, he inadvertently stepped on the ground. Little did he know that the earth beneath his feet was inscribed with a series of mystical runes, which immediately ensnared his foot, immobilizing him.
With no one to hinder his advance, Tai Shengzi seized the opportunity. He leaped into the air, landing gracefully atop a hill, his hand outstretched towards the jade gourd that lay there. Just as he was about to grasp it, a sharp, piercing sword qi tore through the air, forcing Tai Shengzi to step back. With a flick of his wrist, Tai Shengzi summoned a cascade of divine light that blocked the incoming sword qi.
In that brief moment, a figure soared into the air, swiftly snatching the jade gourd and fleeing with it. “Li Wenbo!” Tai Shengzi’s voice rang out, his usually unparalleled demeanor now tinged with a hint of coldness. “Damn it, he’s recognized me!” Li Wenbo exclaimed in surprise. Not far away, Ye Wushuang stood speechless. It was impossible to mistake Li Wenbo, with his distinctive bald head, for anyone else.
Tai Shengzi’s expression turned even more indifferent as he spoke. “This Heavenly Fragrance Dew is of great importance to me. Give it to me, and I will owe you a favor.” Li Wenbo, standing dozens of meters away, laughed and replied, “Of course it is! Who doesn’t have important uses for it?”
At that moment, Li Xinhen broke free from Tai Shengzi’s restraint and cast a cold glance towards Li Wenbo. Meanwhile, Li Xinyue ceased her duel with Prince Tianxu, and all three factions halted their actions, eyeing Li Wenbo warily.
Initially, the plan had been to let the two sides weaken each other, and then for Li Wenbo and Ye Wushuang to strike, like a mantis catching a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. However, things did not go as planned. Li Xinhen had been tricked, and Tai Shengzi was on the verge of obtaining the jade gourd. With no other choice, Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo had to reveal themselves. Now, they had become the targets of everyone’s attention.
Holding the jade gourd, Li Wenbo felt as if it were a hot potato in his hands. “Brother Ye, you take it,” he said, handing it over. Ye Wushuang, upon receiving the gourd, glanced at Li Wenbo and calmly asked, “Don’t you want it?” Looking at the murderous gazes from Tai Shengzi, Prince Tianxu, Li Xinhen, and Li Xinyue, Li Wenbo shook his head. Ye Wushuang was momentarily at a loss for words.
“This Heavenly Fragrance Dew is not meant for you. Hand it over, and I will spare your life,” Li Xinhen said coldly. Ye Wushuang, however, simply stored the jade gourd away with a smile. “Isn’t it true that an unclaimed item belongs to whoever gets it first?” he replied. Li Xinyue, standing nearby, retorted coldly, “Even if you get it, you still need to have the life to take it away.” “I think I do,” Ye Wushuang said, holding the Tianya Sword in front of him, its blade gleaming with a sharp light.
“Looking for death!” Li Xinhen was furious, his palm tightening as the runes on his hand began to glow. Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh. “Your rune attack has too many flaws!” At the eighth level of the Yuanfu Realm, Ye Wushuang had been able to defeat Yan Xuan. Now, having reached the ninth level and infused his Yuanfu with thunder and fire energy, his offensive power had become even more formidable.
With a cry of “Slash!” Ye Wushuang swung the Tianya Sword, unleashing a sword qi that shattered like a nebula, gathering and piercing through the air. Boom! Boom! Boom! The sword qi collided with the runes, and then, with an unstoppable force, it shattered the runes in front of Li Xinhen, accompanied by the sound of thunder and the heat of flames.
“Brother!” Li Xinyue’s face changed dramatically as she rushed forward, swinging her palms dozens of times to block the sword qi. Not far away, Li Wenbo watched in astonishment. He had witnessed Ye Wushuang’s growth all along. When Ye Wushuang fought Yan Xuan, it had taken some effort. Now, with just one sword strike, he had almost killed Li Xinhen! It was simply too astonishing! Ye Wushuang hadn’t even reached the Tiangang Realm yet. If he did, would he be able to kill all four of these geniuses with a single sword strike?
Just that one sword strike had caused Li Xinhen and Li Xinyue’s faces to pale, and it had also left Tai Shengzi and Prince Tianxu in shock. They were all geniuses, well aware of each other’s abilities. It was difficult to determine a winner among the four of them. Yet now, Ye Wushuang had almost killed Li Xinhen with just one sword strike.
“I believe I have the right to claim this Heavenly Fragrance Dew,” Ye Wushuang’s voice rang out calmly. The surroundings fell into an eerie silence, with no one daring to speak.
