For Qing Muyuan, Ye Yunzhe, Yuan Pengwang, and the others, this very figure had emerged from the Liu clan just a few days ago, striking directly and shattering their forces one by one. Yet, the Liu clan’s ancestor had not killed them. Everyone understood that this person’s target was Ye Wushuang. But what exactly about Ye Wushuang made him so valued?
Dozens of zhang above the ground, a figure in black stood still in the void. His figure was tall and slender, draped in a black robe, with a rugged and terrifying mask covering his face, blocking any attempts to probe his identity. Liu Ao’nan, Liu Zhengzong, and the other Liu clan warriors, upon seeing the man in black, quickly bowed low, their demeanor one of utmost humility. Without this ancestor, the Liu clan would still be the weakest among the four remaining great families, let alone have the chance to become the first family of the Qingyun Empire, or even the imperial family!
Previously, both Liu Ao’nan and Liu Zhengzong had thought that with the ancestor’s invincibility, they should have directly annihilated the Ye clan and the royal family. However, the ancestor had asserted that Ye Wushuang would surely return alive and had told them to wait. Now, Ye Wushuang had indeed returned alive. They still did not understand why the ancestor had been so certain.
On the ground, Ye Wushuang looked up at the black figure. “So you are the hidden ancestor of the Liu clan?” Ye Wushuang’s voice carried a hint of indifference. Had it not been for this person, the Ye clan could have easily protected itself after his departure, with no fear of the four great families, and Uncle He would not have had to die.
The man in black looked at Ye Wushuang, his voice deep and hoarse as he spoke slowly, “You have indeed returned alive. To you, the geniuses and prodigies of the Seven Great Sects are nothing more than a minor trial, not even worth being called stumbling blocks.”
“You seem to know quite a lot about me!” Ye Wushuang replied indifferently, “So, who are you?”
Instead of answering, the man in black continued, “Ye Wushuang, in the past, the Ye clan possessed a secret technique known as the Tai Xu Yi Tian Jue.”
“You are to hand this technique over to me. In return, I will spare Ye Yunzhe, Ye Qingfeng, Yuan Pengwang, and the others. I will kill only you.”
Tai Xu Yi Tian Jue!
One of the three great spiritual techniques of the Ye clan in the past, and the most domineering one at that. This technique had long been lost. It was said that by practicing it, one could reach the Gui Yuan Realm. It was an invaluable spiritual technique, one that would drive even the strongest of the Seven Great Sects mad with desire. It was also a secret within the Ye clan.
The man in black continued, “You should know that you do not have the qualifications or strength to stand against me now.”
Ye Wushuang’s gaze turned cold and fierce. Tai Xu Yi Tian Jue! Only a handful of people, including Ye Fushan, Ye Yunzhe, the eighteen Heavenly Questioning Guards, and Tian Chengwen, knew about it. How did this man know?
A sense of foreboding began to grow in Ye Wushuang’s heart.
“You needn’t think of any excuses to evade me. I know that with your abilities, you can perfectly imprint the Tai Xu Yi Tian Jue.”
“Hand over the Tai Xu Yi Tian Jue, and I will kill you.”
“Refuse, and I will kill Ye Yunzhe, Liu Yuemei, Ye Qingfeng, Yuan Pengwang, and everyone you hold dear, right before your eyes.”
Ye Wushuang’s expression remained cold and indifferent.
“Threatening me?”
“Uncle He was killed by you. Today, it is I who will kill you, not the other way around!”
With these words, a surge of murderous aura erupted from within Ye Wushuang.
The man in black let out a bitter smile and flicked his finger. In an instant, a Myriad Laws power condensed at his fingertip. As that power was released, it transformed into a sharp sword, hurtling straight towards Ye Wushuang.
Ye Yunzhe, seeing this, coldly hummed and took a step forward. He formed a seal with his hands, gathering Myriad Laws power into a wheel-shaped imprint.
Clang…
The sharp sword struck.
Ye Yunzhe grunted and retreated several steps. There was still a significant gap between the seventh rank and the peak of the Myriad Laws Realm, especially since Ye Yunzhe was not fully recovered.
“You can’t stop me with just yourselves!” the man in black said indifferently.
His finger flicked again, and more Myriad Laws power condensed into sword-like forms, crashing down through the air.
A terrifying killing intent erupted.
Ye Wushuang’s expression was utterly cold, and his inner Gang energy became a unified whole.
But at that moment.
Whoosh, whoosh—violent winds howled and swirled fiercely. The people around were all blown by the gale, unable to keep their eyes open.
Then.
Boom! An explosion shook the ground, and figures were forced to retreat dozens of zhang away.
In the open space.
Two towering figures landed with a thunderous crash.
At the same time, on Ye Wushuang’s shoulder, a palm-sized spiritual beast, baring its teeth and flapping its wings, looked at Ye Wushuang with an extremely lively and happy expression.
Chi Yuan!
Chi Xuan!
The couple had finally arrived.
“Roar!!!” As Chi Yuan’s tens-of-zhang body landed, his eight wings spread wide, and he let out a long, earth-shaking roar, expressing his fury.
At the same time, Chi Xuan’s massive body lay on the ground, her head close to Ye Wushuang. Her eyes, filled with tears that fell drop by drop, looked at Ye Wushuang.
Little Chi Tian, seeing his mother crying, immediately flew to her forehead, making comforting noises.
Ye Wushuang also stepped forward and asked gently, “Are your injuries fully healed?”
