The news spread like wildfire.
More and more people learned that Ye Wushuang had dared to provoke the genius of the Tianyan Empire.
Some believed that Ye Wushuang was courting death.
Others thought that this young man must be extraordinary; otherwise, how could he act so recklessly?
At the same time, there were also those who had developed a keen interest in battling Ye Wushuang.
In a tributary of the Youlong Mountains, at the entrance of a valley, three people sat in silence.
The valley was surrounded by towering mountains on all sides, with only this single entrance and exit.
Inside the valley, Li Wenbo, Qing Shiyu, and Chu Qingcheng sat calmly.
Ye Wushuang, however, sat at the valley entrance, meditating with his eyes closed.
On the side of the valley, on a cliff face, Xu Qingfeng was pinned to the stone wall, unable to move an inch.
“Ye Wushuang,” Xu Qingfeng said coldly, “I will watch with my own eyes as my eldest brother tears you apart!”
“If you enjoy talking so much, I don’t mind silencing you first by pulling out your tongue,” Ye Wushuang replied indifferently, his gaze fixed on Xu Qingfeng. “I am not one to provoke trouble, but if you provoke me, I will not show mercy.”
Provoke?
Xu Qingfeng was taken aback.
How had the Tianyan Empire provoked Ye Wushuang?
Inside the valley, Qing Shiyu watched the scene with a worried expression.
“Don’t worry!” Li Wenbo chuckled. “Brother Ye is incredibly strong. He’ll be fine!”
He had absolute faith in Ye Wushuang.
Qing Shiyu spoke slowly, “The two leaders among those I encountered have already reached the fourth level of the Tiangang realm. I wonder if they have broken through further these past few days…”
“Don’t worry. Doesn’t Brother Ye still have a trump card up his sleeve?” Li Wenbo replied, thinking of Ye Wushuang’s preparations and feeling an urgent anticipation.
He was truly eager to see those arrogant geniuses, who usually looked down on everyone, finally get their comeuppance.
As the sun set in the west, the evening glow bathed the valley entrance.
Just when Ye Wushuang and the others thought that no one would come today, a group of people appeared outside the valley.
“Ye Wushuang, come out and face your fate!”
A loud shout echoed through the valley.
Hearing the voice, Ye Wushuang was about to rise when he paused, taken aback.
These were not people from the Tianyan Empire!
It was Lou Ge from the Tianji Mansion.
Why had he come?
But soon, Ye Wushuang understood.
The Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect had issued a kill order against him!
“Lou Ge…”
Li Wenbo also stepped out of the valley, surprised. “What’s this fool doing here?”
Lou Ge glared directly at Ye Wushuang and snorted, “Ye Wushuang, in this Hundred Nations Martial Contest, I, Lou Ge, don’t have much hope of making it into the top seven, but I have a good chance of killing you.”
With these words, Ye Wushuang understood even more clearly.
“Alright,” Ye Wushuang stepped out, saying with a hint of helplessness, “I’ll use you to warm up.”
But Li Wenbo stopped Ye Wushuang and said directly, “Hey, you just rest and conserve your energy. This kind of opponent doesn’t need you. I’ll handle it.”
Hearing this, Lou Ge was furious.
How could these two look down on him so much?
In the Tianji Mansion, aside from Ling Zhongxiao’s sister, Ling Zhongyun, who could outdo him, only Ling Zhongxiao and Gu Qingyi were his equals.
Li Wenbo underestimating him was understandable.
But who did Ye Wushuang think he was?
“Lou Ge, have you lost your mind?” Li Wenbo couldn’t help but ask. “Haven’t you seen Ling Zhongxiao and Gu Qingyi these days?”
“Don’t mention those two fools to me!” Lou Ge replied angrily, thinking of how Ling Zhongxiao and Gu Qingyi had been so cowardly.
He continued, “The three of us were always together, but those two fools refused to come with me to kill Ye Wushuang.”
Li Wenbo’s expression became even more peculiar. “They didn’t tell you why they didn’t come?”
“I don’t care about them. The chances of any of us making it into the top seven are slim, but killing Ye Wushuang seems like a good opportunity. Yet those two fools wouldn’t come.”
Even Xu Qingfeng, who was pinned to the cliff, looked at Lou Ge as if he were a fool.
Lou Ge was a genius from the Tianji Mansion, and Xu Qingfeng was a genius from the Tianyan Empire.
If even Xu Qingfeng had been captured, how could Lou Ge, with just a few followers, think he stood a chance?
He was clearly asking for death.
“Ye Wushuang, prepare to die!” Lou Ge snorted, unleashing his Tiangang energy, revealing that he was at the fourth level of the Tiangang realm.
Seeing this, Li Wenbo said again, “Let me handle it. You rest and prepare for tomorrow’s battle.”
With that, Li Wenbo took a step forward.
Seeing this, Lou Ge was furious. “Li Wenbo, are you determined to help him?”
