Yin Qiushui’s face was etched with distress as he hurried forward to support the master of the mansion.
“Impossible!”
Tian Wuzhan rose to his feet, bellowing in fury, “Nonsense!”
“It’s true. Dan Yongye’s Lingyuan Soul Lamp has been extinguished!”
The Lingyuan Soul Lamp.
This was a mystical lamp crafted by the Tianji Mansion through secret techniques, integrating a trace of a warrior’s soul essence.
The creation of such a lamp was exceedingly arduous. Within the entire Tianji Mansion, only a handful of individuals had left behind a Lingyuan Soul Lamp, and Dan Yongye was one of them.
This lamp maintained a subtle connection with the warrior’s soul, no matter the distance, even if it spanned thousands of miles.
When a warrior perished, the soul lamp would be extinguished.
“Nonsense!”
Upon hearing this, Tian Wuzhan roared in anger. In a flash, he vanished.
He reappeared in a dimly lit hall.
At that moment, within the hall, Shang Minghong, Ling Peng, Tan Qingyi, the three mansion masters, along with several core elders, were all present.
Seeing the arrival of the chief mansion master, Tian Wuzhan, everyone bowed deeply, not daring to breathe heavily.
On the desk within the hall, a soul lamp inscribed with Dan Yongye’s name had already been extinguished.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy, and no one dared to speak.
Dan Yongye!
He could be considered the most outstanding and extraordinary talent in the Tianji Mansion in nearly a century, surpassing the previous generations.
The high-ranking officials of the Tianji Mansion unanimously believed that this young man would surely reach the Xujing realm in the future, and might even become an invincible figure in the Dongxu realm!
But now…
He was dead!
Tian Wuzhan stared at the Lingyuan Soul Lamp, his fists clenched tightly, his expression ferocious. He couldn’t help but roar, “Who? Who did this?!”
They did not know who had killed Dan Yongye when he entered the Tianmen Dimen.
However, Dan Yongye’s death was a tremendous blow to the Tianji Mansion.
This young man was more precious than ten Guiyuan realm elders combined!
It was unlikely that the Tianji Mansion would encounter such a genius in the next hundred years.
Lingjian Mountain had a Si Yin.
Now, another Ye Wushuang had emerged.
The Tianji Mansion had barely had a Dan Yongye, yet now he had been killed!
“Ah!!!”
Tian Wuzhan’s eyes turned bloodshot with rage as he roared, “If I find out who did this, I will kill them!!!”
At that moment, the chief mansion master, Shang Minghong, spoke up: “There were many people who entered the Tianmen Dimen this time, not only the young geniuses of the current generation but also some elders who had immersed themselves in the Wanfa realm for a long time. Among those elders, there were also many with formidable strength…”
It was impossible to say who had killed Dan Yongye.
Investigate?
How could they investigate?
Everything would have to wait until the Tianmen Dimen was opened again to be known.
But now, just over a month after everyone had entered the Tianmen Dimen, Dan Yongye was dead…
This was simply unacceptable to the high-ranking officials.
At the same time.
Inside the Tianmen Dimen.
In the Tianlin Ancient City.
Ye Wushuang, panting heavily, stood beside Dan Yongye’s corpse, speechless.
Had it not been for his grudge with the Tianji Mansion, the Lingjian Mountain disciples, including Jiang Yihan, would not have been killed.
Now that he had killed Dan Yongye, Shang Yunshang, Duan Xingqing, and Wan Yan Chuxue, Ye Wushuang felt he had avenged Jiang Yihan and the others.
But the dead could not be brought back to life!
Ye Wushuang clenched his fists.
“The people from the Tianji Mansion… none of them will leave here alive this time.”
At that moment, under the night sky, amidst the ruins, a stone platform was shimmering with a pitch-black light.
This blackness was starkly out of place with the scenery under the night moon.
Ye Wushuang stepped carefully towards the source of the black light.
He saw a stone platform about a meter high, carved into the shape of a lotus.
At the center of the lotus platform, there was a palm-sized piece of black, scaly stone.
The surface of the scale stone was twinkling with a crystalline light, like the pure light emitted by a bright pearl under the night sky.
“This is… Obsidian!”
Ye Wushuang’s eyes brightened.
Obsidian!
Like Tianlin Goldstone, it was a precious treasure of the Five Elements.
Tianlin Goldstone contained a terrifying and pure metallic force.
Obsidian, on the other hand, contained a pure earth force.
The Huoli Lamp that Ye Wushuang had obtained was made of fire essence, possessing a pure fire force.
These three… were of equal value, all rare items.
Not only were they hard to find in the Qingzhou continent, but they were also not easily encountered in the central land of the Tianyuan continent.
The appearance of these Five Elements treasures in the Tianlin Ancient City was definitely not a coincidence.
Ye Wushuang stepped forward, set up a seal, and began to extract the Obsidian.
Half an hour later, after obtaining the Obsidian, Ye Wushuang disappeared.
After Ye Wushuang left, outside the ruins, blood-bone people arrived like dark night spirits.
These blood-bone people collected the scattered corpses and remains on the ground and then headed towards the tall tower in the center of the blood mist…
Ye Wushuang did not continue to go deeper into the blood mist.
Mu Zi Li was injured, and Ji Ou was guarding him alone. Ye Wushuang was not at ease.
After all, earlier in the ancient city, there had been the appearance of geniuses from the Li Clan and Taiqing Palace. The two of them were not safe.
In a short while, Ye Wushuang returned to the courtyard and set up several spiritual arrays and seals around it before entering with a sense of relief.
“Who’s there?”
In the dark night, a broad knife appeared.
“It’s me.”
Seeing Ye Wushuang’s return, Ji Ou let out a sigh of relief.
“Brother Ye, you…”
However, upon seeing the blood on Ye Wushuang’s body, Ji Ou exclaimed in alarm, “Are you alright?”
Ye Wushuang exhaled and said, “I’m fine.”
Upon seeing the wounds on Ye Wushuang’s back, Ji Ou’s face turned pale with shock: “Did you fight with Dan Yongye?”
“How did you know?”
“The Tianji Mansion’s Tianji Wanyan Technique. In recent years, only Dan Yongye has cultivated it. Your injuries seem to be caused by this technique!”
Ye Wushuang nodded and said, “I killed him.”
“What?”
“What?”
Almost simultaneously, two exclamations of astonishment rang out together.
Mu Zi Li, who had just stepped out of the house, stood pale-faced at the entrance, just like Ji Ou, staring in disbelief.
“Let’s talk inside!”
The three of them entered the house together and sat down on the floor.
Ye Wushuang immediately recounted to Mu Zi Li and Ji Ou what he had done during the time he had been away.
After listening to Ye Wushuang’s story, Ji Ou blurted out, “Brother Ye, you’re not pulling our legs, are you?”
Dan Yongye, Shang Yunshang, Duan Xingqing, and Wan Yan Chuxue were all dead?
The four great geniuses of the Tianji Mansion’s expedition had been wiped out!
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.
Mu Zi Li also said in astonishment, “You can’t joke about such a matter!”
“Do I look like I’m deceiving you?” Ye Wushuang said again, “These are the spatial rings of those few people. You might recognize some of them.”
With a wave of his hand, several spatial rings appeared.
“This purple jade ring belongs to Dan Yongye. This guy was a precious treasure of the Tianji Mansion. It was obtained by Tian Wuzhan years ago and given to Dan Yongye. It’s invaluable,” Mu Zi Li said immediately.
It was true!
Ye Wushuang had single-handedly annihilated the four most outstanding geniuses of the Tianji Mansion’s expedition!
“My goodness!”
Ji Ou couldn’t help but get up and pace back and forth, touching his bald head, and exclaimed in horror, “My goodness, my goodness!”
This was just too shocking!
After a long while, the two of them finally digested the news.
Looking at Ye Wushuang again, they regarded him as if he were a monster.
Ye Wushuang, at the second level of Wanfa, had slain Dan Yongye, who was at the fifth level of Wanfa.
If this news were to spread, the entire Tianmen Dimen space would surely explode in chaos!
It was just too incredible.
After waiting for the two to calm down, Ye Wushuang finally said, “Let’s take a look at what good things are stored in these spatial rings.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Zi Li and
